expected tonight. Showers fell on a scattered basis around the state this morning. For the 24-hour period ending this morning, South Bend recorded a little more than half an inch of precipitation. A thunderstorm occurred in Goshen after dawn. Indianapolis had very light rain. But by tonight it will turn "fair and cooler,” the weatherman said, with dropping to the upper 1 50 sin the north, the low 60s in the central and the mid 60s in the south. Temperatures will ’’’crest around 80 on Saturday, and the outlook for Sunday is “fair and pleasant.” The "pleasant" terminology would indicate relatively low humidity. The temperature hit a range from 84 at Lafayette to 86 at Fort Wayne Thursday afternoon, dropping to the high .60s during the 1 night. The five-day outlook called for temperatures averaging 5 to 6 degrees below normal for this time of year. Normal highs are 83 to 90, normal lows 62 to 69. “Turning cooler most sections tonight and Saturday with not much change in temperature Sunday through Wednesday,” the outlook said, adding that precipitation would be nominal, averaging near one-half inch in showers or thunderstorms about Monday or Tuesday. May Ask Congress Hike Debt Ceiling Temporary Seiling Increase Is Likely WASHINGTON (UPD —The administration, looking back on one deficit and ahead to another, may ask Congress to raise the temporary federal debt ceiling another eight billion dollars. That would put the ceiling at 288 billion dollars. Chairman Wilbur D. Mills (D-Ark.) said Treasury Secretary Robert Anderson would lay the administration's request before the House Ways and Means committee Monday. Mills said he did not know how much of an increase Anderson would seek. Informed sources said Anderson would ask that the permanent debt ceiling be raised from 275 billion to 285 billion and the tern-' porary ceiling from 280 billion to 288 billion. The temporary hike would run at least until June 30, 1959. Other sources said the final debt request figure had not been finally decided. The move was designed to enable the government to pay its bills during the coming months. Revenues in this period are expected to be down sharply as a result of the business slump while | defense spending is rising because ' of the drive to overtake Russia in space.

Refuses Increase On Printer Service FCC Is Conducting Long-Range Study WASHINGTON (UPD — The Federal Communication Corr, mission refused Thursday to al low the American Telephone & Telegraph Co. to increase rates for leased teleprinter services, used heavily by the press, by an average 37 per ent. At the same time, the FCC re- , fused to reconsider air order that ’ AT&T cut charges for private line 1 telephone service by 15 per cent. t The telephone reduction order be- ( coms effective Aug. 24. The FCC has been conducting/ since 1955 a long - range study of j rate problems in the two private . service fields. AT&T had asked ‘ the hi g her teleprinter service rates to be allowed in the interim J until the inquiry is completed. i In the rejected petition, AT&T had proposed increasing such rates for the press by 48 per cent, for government customers by 27 per cent and for commercial customers, 36 per cent. United Press International had filed an objecting petition de- ' scribing the proposed boosts as ‘ “patently” discriminatory against ' the press. companies argued that UPl’s op- ' position was "arbitrary and un- ' reasonable.” They said the cur- j rent situation is “unfair to users . of other services, which in effect, ' are subsidizing the press.” The AT&T reply said the UPI arguments were based "in! part on a lack of understanding Os certain evidence in the record and , well known fundamentals of the . communications business.” Both sides sharply differed on a cost study on which AT&T 1 based its rate increase petition. , AT&T contended that its rev- ] enues from private line telprint- ( er services have netted a return of 2.6 pr cent which it described j as "completely inadequate.” It said it was entitled to a return ( of 7.5 per cent on its net investment which the proposed new ‘ interim rates would have pro- ‘ vided. . The 15 per cent reduction in private line telephone charges ordered by the FCC will affect ‘ business, industry and govern-J ment users which have their own private inter-city telephone serv- » ice. It also may affect telephoto services used by the press. ( Man Drowns In Vain Attempt At Rescue ANDERSON. S. C.

Senate Nears Showdown On Farm Measure Signs Os Backstage Agreements Clearing Path For Passage WASHINGTON (UPI) — The Senate today beared showdown votes on its farm bill amid signs that backstage agreements on both sides of Capitol Hill had cleared the way for a measure acceptable to the administration. Agriculture Secretary Ezra Taft Benson, pressing for looser federal planting controls and lower price support floors, was the apparent big winner in a rapid-lire series of tentative agreements Thursday. The bill would: —Eliminate all federal planting controls on corn and reduce its federal support floors. —Head off sharp reductions in 1959 rice and cotton planting allotments: Provide a 1959-60 cotton program under which growers could choose individually between relatively low and high allotments with lower supports for those choosing increased planting; ban allotment cuts for growers with 1958 alotrhents of 10 acres or less; provide a permanent national allotment floor of 16 million acres with reduced support floors beginning in 1961; head off an increase in the price of rice next year; provide a permanent floor of 1,600,000 acres with support between 75 and 90 per cent of the fair earning level in 1959-60. —Extend for four years, beginning next March 1, the National Wool Act under which growers get “Brannan Plan" subsidy payments covering the difference between market prices and support levels. The Senate bill would limit props to 85 per cent of parity, which wool state senators said would maintain the support level at the present rate of 62 cents a pound. The Wool Act extension was added to the bill by a 67-9 roll call vote Thursday night. The bill also would eliminate parity — the theoretically “fair” price of farm crops — as the basis for fixing federal price supports, for corn beginning in 1959 and cotton and rice beginning in Ish>l. In place of parity, the bill would adopt a plan basing props on 90 per cent of the past threeyear open market price average. Sen Hubert H. Humphrey IDMum.), leadr of a group of midwestern Democrats who fought abandonment of parity in a series of angry speeches Thursday, was reported today to have reached a compromise with administration forces and Chairman Allen J. Ellender <D-La.) of the Senage Agriculture Committee. Under this compromise, subject to ratification in a series of amendments today,, the market price plan would be dropped for corn and props would range from 60 to 90 per cent of parity. This is the plan Benson originally suggested. ‘ . Humphrey and other midwestrn Democrats were also expected to offer price - boosting amendments for feed grains and dairy products. But sources close to them were conceding defeat.

Fellow passengers said Quiggle had been acting peculiarly. Orie, Gloria Steinem, 24, of Washington, D. C., said a ship officer told her Quiggle was heard to say to his wife: "You are better off as a widow.” “The admiral then kissed his wife and walked slowly from their stateroom,” Miss Steinem said. Quiggle was returning with his wife, Anne, from Tokyo where he was deputy chief of staff of the Joint Command, U. S. Forces. He was to„ become commander of Amphibious Group 1 at San Diego.

French Position On Conference In Doubt Public Spotlight In New York Distasteful WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen. Mike Mansfield (D-Mont.) said today French Premier Charles de Gaulle “has a point in asking that a summit conference be held in a cool, detached atmosphere” unlike that of metropolitan New York. “While New York is the logical place for a ponference held under United Nations auspices,” Mansfield told United Press International, “it would be more in line with De Gaulle's reasoning to hold it in Geneva, which houses subsidiary U.N. units, or in some American city like San Francisco.” Mansfield is the assistant Senate Democratic leader. A series of conflicting statements in Paris has left in doubt the official French position on the proposed summit meeting. It was believed De Gaulle still views with distaste the idea of a toplevel meeting under the public spotlight in New York. Another top - ranking Democrat. Senate Majority Leader Lyndon B. Johnson (Tex.) came out in support of a summit meeting. "I don’t think anyone can foretell what results will flow from such a meeting,” Johnson said in a filmed interview. “I think it’s reasonable to assume that we haven’t been too successful in recent years in summit conferences. What success we have attained has usually come at the ambassadorial level. However, no one can refuse to be willing to sit down and reason things out with the leaders in all parts of the world.” There were warning signals flying from other quarters of the Senate. Senate Republican Leadr William F. Kflowland (R-Calif.) appeared ready to make a dramatic protest if the West failed to stand fast for maintenance of normal U.N. procedures in setting up the summit meeting. Knowland Thursday expressed concern about “another Munich” if Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev’s latest terms for a summit meeting were accepted by Britain and the United States. It was at Munich, Germany, that Adolf Hitler won concessions from British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain just before the outbreak of World War 11. Knowland was understood to be satisfied with the administration's current position but worried lest it be softened in final consultations with France and Britain. frede in a good town — Decatur.

Fla. (UPD —A final search effort began at dawn today for Wickie the space mouse, whose resting place would be marked in the South Atlantic by a carrot-colored balloon. The Air Force said the spe-cially-equipped search planes and ships in the hunt received no signals Thursday from the experimental nose cone in which Wickie rode 6.300 miles through the heavens on Wednesday. Fear grew she would become the third mouse lost in a combination military-scien-tific test series. Officials still would not say whether the nose cone re-entered the earth’s atmosphere. But the presence of the search force near Ascension Island, 1,000 miles from the coast of Africa, indicated successful return was assumed. Primary purpose of the test was to recover the experimental ThorAble nose cone to learn how it fared in the terrific heat generated by friction in returning through the atmosphere at a speed of about 15,000 miles an hour.
