mosa Straits have not interrupted the 72-year-old Nationalist leader's .devotions. Every Sunday, the Generalis-; simo strolls across the gardens of' his grass mountain residence in the outskirts of Taipei to a private chapel to worship with a Chinese pastor. Chiang has not changed his work schedule because of the current tension with the exception of meeting more frequently with his military staff, a spokesman said. Since his first lady is now touring the United States to get medical attention and make speeches, Chiang usually takes -his meals alone. Sometimes he is joined at the dinner table by one of his two sons, both top generals, or his grandchildren. He eats sparingly and does not drink or smoke. * j Chiang has no particular hobby, | except perhaps relaxing nightly! reading Chinese classics, as he had done during the years of fighting on the mainland against L the Japanese and, later, the Chi-'

nese Communists. Once a week he may see an American movie, with Chinese sub - titles, or challenge one of his grandchildren to a game of Chinese chess. Chiang follows the Spartan schedule of a professional soldier. He rises at 6 a m. daily afhd does calisthenics before following his Christian devotions. He retires promptly at 10:30 p.m. Harlke And Handley Head Party Tickets Deadline Closed To Certify Candidates INDIANAPOLIS <UPl>—Governor Handley and Evansville Mayor Vance Hartke headed up the major party tickets today as the deadline closed for certifying candidates for the Nov. 4 election in Indiana.

Says American Help En Route Io Nationalists Senior Commander On Formosa States Help Is En Route TAIPEI, Formosa (UPD—Vice Adm. Roland Smoot, senior American commander on Formosa, said today “American help” was en route to the Nationalists to overcome the Communist attacks on the off-shore islands of Quemoy. Smoot declined to specify the nature of the help beyond Washington announcements but said, “we will lick them.” Smoot, commander of the U.S.Taiwan (Formosa) Defense Command, said the Communists would fail to capture or even to blockade the off-shore islands. • “I think they can do nothing,” he told a news conference. • Asked about the Communist naval attack which forced a Nationalist troopship to flee from Quemoy Monday night after it had discharged only 30 of the 300 men aboard, Smoot said: “That pattern won't continue. There are many things we can do which we haven't even tried. The Chinese can repeat our most historic statement: They have not yet begun to fight.” Smoot met with the press shortly after Rear Adm. Lin Hoh-Tu, official spokesman for the, ministry of national defense, admitted that 12 days of steady Communist bombardment has “jeopardized” the Nationalist supply lines from Formosa to Quemoy. Advance winds from “Typhoon Grace” howled through the 100-mile-wide straits of Formosa today, churning up waves that made reinforcement of the Quemoy garrison even more difficult than the Red artillery that has fired almost without pause since Aug. 23. Communist artillery opened up again at dawn from the port city of Amoy and nearby Tateng, hitting both big and little Quemoy. The defense ministry announced 23 persons were killed and 103 wounded from the shelling Monday and Tuesday, bringing the number of Nationalist casualties above the 800 mark. Automobile Stolen At Berne Tuesday _A car .was reported stolen last night at Berne from the home of Loris Minger. The vehicle was reported stolen at 7:30 p.m. in Berne. The sheriff's department stated that the automobile is a _1954 Chevrolet four door sedan, dark blue over light blue, with the* license number JC-7QO. TRUMAN (Contill>ued_from Page on«) revealed in an afternoon speech that President Eisenhower Will submit a pnaosal to the U. N. calling for international cooperation in exploring space. —Truman told a news conference that “if outer space needs control, the U. S. is the one to control it." , McElroy, speaking before about 1 250 persons at a dinner meeting, assailed critics of the nation's millitary strength. He said re P° rt ‘ that America is falling behind the Russians are dangerous because they tend “to shake the confidence of our people and also to lead our enemies to think we are ready to push overT*" . However, the defense secretary conceded it is probable Soviets are now ahead of the U. »■ in “the development of an intercontinental ballistic missile. “I stress the word 'development' because both contries are now in a developmental stage a testing and proving stage," McElroy said. _. . . “ . . . Those who project Soviet long-range missile strength into mass production thousands assume the achievement of developmental objectives and a smooth transition to assembly line production. I am sure the Russians have found, as we have, that production of missiles doesn't flow that easily.” McElroy said both he and President Eisenhower are confident of U. S. military superiority now and that "the United States has both the capability and determination to keep a gap in overall military strength from opening.” McElroy also read a message from the President calling .on the Legionnairgs and the nation to bring “to this nation victory in peace by equally selfless devotion to the work and sacrifice which are indispensable to the strength and security of our country.” Former National Legion Commander Dan Daniel of Danville, Va.. urged the U. S. Supreme Court’s powers be curbed "by demanding that Congress place these men of little self-restraint into a legislative straitjacket from which there is no escape." The Legion's fun-loving 40 & 8 contingent delighted thousands of spectators with a zany Loop parade Tuesday night.

Shed Fire Results In Department Call The city fire department was summoned to 421 Line street at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday in answer to a small fire at the home of Arthur Rains. The fire occurred in a shed located at the back of the home, where Rains was melting cold tar. The fire department was called after the container filled with the tar boiled over, causing a few papers stored under a bench to burn. No damage was given as a result of the fire. Minor Accident Is Reported Tuesday I A minor accident was investigated by the sheriff’s department and state police Tuesday at 6 p.m. on county road 34, one half mile west and one half mile north of Coppess Corners. Cars driven by Flossie L. Davis, 57. route one, Monroe, and Arthur H. Lengerich. 49. route one, Monroe. collided at the crossing where the two roads meet. Damage to the Davis vehicle was estimated at $l5O, and SIOO damage was estimated to the Lengerich auto.

Guam. <UPD — U.S. Navy teams scoured the sharkinfested waters west of Guam today in a hopeless quest for survivors of a C 124 Globemaster that crashed with 19 persons aboard. Navy authorities said only two bodies had been recovered. Seven crew members and 12 passengers were aboard the four-engined Military Air Transport Service plane. It was speculated in the United States the passengers were on the plane when the flight originated at Canon Air Force Base, N.M., and were flying as support personnel for flights of FlO4 jets ordered to the Orient in the For<mosa crisis. Though the search continued, there existed virtually no hope any of the 19 had survived. The plane, from Travis AFB in California, went down in the ocean 40 n®S west of Guam Tuesday after taking off from Agana for Clark AFB in the Philippines. The U.S. Navy destroyer Birdgett arrived here Tuesday night with one body recovered from the scene. A helicopter returned another body. Lt. C.mdr, James B. Allen of San Diego, Calif., the executive officer aboard the Bridgett, said he knew of only two bodies recovered so far. . Earlier reports saying three and later seven bodies had been recovered were in error. So far there has been no indication as to what caused the crash. The MATS office at Hickam AFB in Hawaii said the crewmen included: Ist Lt. Robert E. Birkenmeir, 28, St. Louis, Mo.; Ist Lt. Thomas R. Jensen, 25. navigator, Davenport, Iowa; T. Sgt. James W. Armstrong, 25, Burlington, lowa, engineer; and Theo L. Batchelor, 29, engineer, Henley, Neb. LESTER (Continued nom page onel Mrs. Julius Scheumann, Mr. and Mrs. I. C. Schmiege. T. G.

Faubus Warns Against Use Os U. S. Marshals Arkansas Governor To Oppose Use Os Federal Marshals LITTLE ROCK. Ark. (UPD—.Gov. Orval E. Faubus warned Tuesday that if federal marshals were used to enforce Negro integration anywhere in Arkansas, he would be “bound to offer opposition" to any such move. Faubus could answer such a move by the federal government through a bill passed by the Arkansas Legislature in a special, anti-integration session last week. The bill would allow Faubus to close any integration - threatened school. Faubus has not signed the bill but he can do it when he sees fit. Faubus told newsmen he had information a group of federal marshals was being gathered for duty at Central High School. However, neither the Justice Department in Washington nor local federal officials would comment on Faubus’ statement. “I do not want to provoke an open conflict between state and federal governments,” said Faubus. “but I am bound to offer op-position-to any such move by the federal government.” Faubus said the bills passed by the Legislature would not be used by him as a “whip” to threaten the U. S. Supreme Court or the Little Rock school board. As to when he might sign the bills passed by the lawmakers, he said: “This integration crisis is a day-to-day situation — one that needs studying.” Negroes Heckled Other integration developments: In Van Buren. Ark., Negro students reported they were greetd with heckling by white pupils during the first school day and the city set up a police watch on the integrated school. —ln Virginia, Negro attorneys expressed surprise that the Arling-i ton County school board had voted j secretly last week to toss out the applications of 30 Negro pupils to attend white schools. —More heckling and jeerifig, such as occurred last year, was predicted today for Greensboro, N.C., when additional Negro students begin classes in white schools. Officials of the Orange County school board in North Carolina resisted another attempt by Negroes to integrate the white school at Carrboro. The Yancey County school board of education voted to allow a group of Negro children to attend a colored school in Asheville, N.C. The action came after the children boycotted their own one-room building. Ku Klux Rumor Meanwhile, new opposition to integration, in the form of the Ku

Marine guard in front of Ambassador James McClintock's residence but inflicted little or no damage.

Connie Nicholas To Fight Murder Charge Teel's Slaying To Grand Jury Sept. 16 INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — The accused slayer of Forrest Teel, 54. wealthy vice president of a big drug company, has regained her "will to live” and will fight against murder charges expected to emanate from a grand jury session opening Sept. 16. The attorney for Mrs. Connie Nicholas, 42, Teel s woman friend whose hand was on the gun when he was slain July 31, said today that although the divorcee's arm still is paralyzed "she is in pretty good spirits and has the will to live." Mrs. Nicholas swallowed 75 sleeping pills in a suicide attempt shortly after an argument over another woman ended in the Eli Lilly & Company executive’s death. She has been in General Hospital detention ward since then. Charles W. Symmes, attorney for the accused woman, said there was no “practical reason” for seeking his client’s release at present. “Her arm still is paralyzed,” Symmes said. "All she can move is her hand. She requires continued hospitalization and I am sure she is getting good care where she is.” Mrs. Nicholas has claimed her arm was injured in a struggle with Teel. However the state, represented by Deputy Prosecutor William T. Sharp of Marion County, is expected to argue that the injury was due to the position in which Mrs. Nicholas lay unconscious in her car fqr nearly 24 hours before she was found. The Marion County grand jury, some of whose members were on vacation at the time of the slaying, will begin hearing evidence in the case Sept. 16. Sharp has indicated he will call Miss Laura Mowrer, at whose apartment Teel was visiting prior to his death. Also expected to go before the grand jury is.Teel’s widow. Mary Elizabeth. Miss Mowrer left Indianapolis for a designation not disclosed by her attorney or family immediately after the slaying. Mrs. Teel also left, but returned recently to enroll her 14-year-old son in school. . Berne Legion Post Given Recognition The Berne American Legion post ' received recognition from the dis- ' trict chairman in the Indiana Hoosier Legionnaire for its fine child welfare program during the 1957 year. Art Wilkie, fourth district chairman, cited Berne as one of | three of the 34 posts in the district having an outstanding program. Leo and Woodburn also received recognition.
