.- --4', — , ' ■ - A speech to the American Bar association containing insurance company views on the “contingent fees” grab by certain lawyers contains much of interest. The insurance companies naturally feel that they should not pay claims which mostly go to attorneys. They feel that the claims should go to those injured or aggrieved. The general public undoubtedly concurs in this. A set fee, by the state or county bar association for damage cases, rather than “one-third of the damages collected” would probably benefit the public. Most of those lawyers whose fees would be substantially decreased are making between $75,000 to $1,000,000 a year in comparison with the average lawyer's income of $lO,000 a year. While lawyers are most certainly a necessary part of organized society, they should be expected to govern themselves for the benefit of the general public as well as for self-enrichment, as their professional code directs. o o The difference in moral quality between New York's Mayor, Robert Wagner, son of a German immigrant who rose to be his state's finest senator, and Indiana governor “High-Tax Harold” Handley is obvious. Mayor Wagner rejected his party's nomination for U. S. Senator because he felt morally bound to finish his term as New York's Mayor. The twice-divorced, thrice married Hoosier governor, however, eagerly grasped at the chance for personal advancement despite the obvious Constitutional violation. Our Constitution makes it piam that Indiana governors are not to run for other political office, but are to finish the terms to which they are elected. None have violated this since civil war days. Indiana voters are not likely to advance Handley to the senate position. His doubling of state taxes with no increase in service will work against him. He has spent more in one year from his “special”, fund that Democrat Henry F. Schricker did during his entire first term.

The second death in Allen county from polio this year emphasizes the importance of getting the full number of three Salk shots, and booster shots annually by your physician. Don’t let your family suffer from needless pain and anxiety when an inexpensive preventative is available. o_ —o— What should an independent voter do when solicited by the ' Democrats and Republicans? The • logical answer is to split his con- 1 tribution, giving half to each party. If we are to maintain the two party system, a basic factor in our Democratic way of life, both parties must be supported. Being an independent does not ■ excuse the voter from helping to ( keep the system going. It is all the more important that both ! parties have the money to pro- i vide the independents with the information they will need to vote ' intelligently. o o—— Figures from the August 19 Congressional Record show how much each party received, and how much each party spent during the 1956 campaign. Republicans were able to spend more on all media than the Democrats, and spent $1 million more on TV than the Democrats. In Indiana, 150 Republicans made contributions of more than SSOO during the campaign, with their total gifts amounting to $124,550. Only 26 gifts of SSOO or larger were : made by Democrats, for a total i of $19,169. Nationally the Republicans received 7,751 “big money” contributions, amounting to SB.064,907; the Democrats received 2.663 such gifts, totaling $2,820,655. More than 90% of the contributions from wealthy families went to the Republican party. Some of these are: DuPont, $248,423; Pew, $216,800; Rockefeller, $152,604; Whitney, $121,450; Mellon, SIOO,150. Officials from 47 leading underwriters gave $237,800 to the GOP, $2,000 to the Democrats. If the man in the $5,000-SIO,OOO salary group wishes to be represented in this state or nation, he should certainly be ready to give a dollar to the party of his choice.

Virginia's School Situation Serious Integration Order Posing Problems RICHMOND, Va. (UPD—There | has been so much confusion about what’s likely to happen when ( schools open in Virginia next month, it might be worth while to 1 look into the situation. It’s serious, all right. It threatens to close several schools and ! possibly several school sytem. It almot certainly will bring the ' tate government into fresh conflict with the federal government. There is the potential here for an- ; other Little Rock, although forces on all sides seem to be working ■ feverishly behind the scenes to prevent that. What’s happened is that Arlington County — in Washington’s front yard — and the cities of Norfolk and Charlottesville have been ordered to desegregate schools when classes open in September. They have exhausted appeals from these orders. Has “Resistance” Laws But under Virginia law, if any white school accepts Negroes, it I would be closed under one of the | state’s "massive resistance” laws. On the other side is the kind of: federal court order that led to the Army being sent to Little Rock last fall. “I don’t know what will happen,” said Norfolk Superintendent J. J. Brewbaker. "I don’t know even what our position is. The ( federal courts say you got to ad- ( mit these kids in school. The state | says we can’t. So where are we?” I Suppose one of the integrationordered cities should agree to abide by the orders? Under Gov. Lindsay Almond’s “massive resistance” plan, he would assume control of the affected school district, reorganize lit and reopen it on a segregated (basis. He is talking now in terms iof taking up the matter by individual integrated classes, however. rather than entire schools or districts. Open Private Schools If the state failed to get by with the re-opening plan, the school | then would be closed. Pupils! would be sent to some kind of pri-I vate school: If only a few pupils were involved, they would be absorbed into other schools and. for j the time at least, that would be I the end of it. At that point, however, parents (of the Negro litigants are expected to ask the corts"again to order the affected school re-opened on an integrated basis. That’s where the state of Virginia and the government would be at a j "Little Rock” crossroads. I One of the big question marks in the whole Virginia situation is ! whether private schools would j jwork. Even the highest state auI thorities are doubtful. If a considerable number of public schools were closed, there simply wouldn’t be enough facilities and teachers to meet the emergncy. Out of the confused puzzle, this is about the best way anyone cani put it together at the jnoment: j The chances are that only a few I schools actually will be closed in!

September. The • students from them probably could be absorbed into other schools. Before further crisis, Almond could call a special session of the General Assembly to re-write his strict laws, at least to the extent of preventing the mass closing of schools. Norfolk A Test? Norfolk might be the spot where actual integration would first be tested. The school board there has said it will comply with the federal court order and that it could not “guarantee” complete segregation. Although Arlington has been ordered to admit Negroes who have been named — as they were in Little Rock — to presently-all white schools, the pupils will be assigned under the state Public Placement Act. It is expected the Negroes will be assigned to Negro schools although this would be in. direct contradiction of the court order. Charlottesville may attempt to get iby with a new school district plan that would put all Negro pupils in one district. Norfolk and Charlottesville have their own pupil placement plans under which Negro applicants will have to pass stiff entry requirements. Negroes have challenged the validity of both assignment plans but they have so far been i upheld by the courts. A new test (of the Norfolk plan is due in fed- : eral court this week. Almond has described the Virginia case as the gravest crisis since the Civil War. Old Strip Mines Can Be Reclaimed Can Be Used For Hunting, Fishing BLOOMINGTON.

I nois University zoologist, told a national meeting of the American Institute of Biological Sciences that the worked-out strip mines ' can be of great recreational value to city dwellers if they are stocked with fish and other wildlife. “Because 100 bushels per acre of corn is not realized does not mean that there are not equal values following the great economic return from the mineral deposits,” he said. “We need to appreciate the reaction of a met-! ropolitan area resident to the op-1 portunities afforded by a spoil bank area. There is great potential for wildlife management on strip-mine areas but even more ( there is responsibility.”

L. E. Sawyer, manager of the Indiana Coal Assn., told delegates that reclamation of the state’s mined-out coal lands, started 40 years ago in Owen and Clay Counties, is returning those areas to at least as high a form of use as they enjoyed before the mining operations. Sawyer said the first coal land reclamation started in 1918 when a power company planted peach, apple and pear trees on spoil ! banks in Owen and Clay counties. He said the original pear trees still are standing and producing bumper crops annually. I It’s six years before a lobster I reaches one pound in weight.
