Urges Increase In Old Age Benefits Indiana Welfare Official Makes Plea BLOOMINGTON. Ind. (UPD— An Indiana welfare official urged today that old age assistance be increased from the present maximum of S6O per month because many older citizens are “begging from friends and neighbors” in order to survive. Constance E. Kellam of the Lake County Department of Public Welfare made the plea in a talk before a Conference on the Aging and Aged at Indiana University. “If a maximum figure must be set,” she said, “it must be more equitable with the present cost of living.” Miss Kellam said a survey in Lake County revealed that the average old age assistance recipient is a woman, 75 years old, with some health handicap, a nearly fifth grade education and some financial resource to meet only part of her needs. “In addition to living in belowminimum standard situations, she is usually unable to remedy her plight.” Miss Kellam said ( Money saved for old age “is eaten up" within a few years, she said. And medical and hospital needs soon deplete any reserves If a maximum assistance figure ' must be set. she said, it “must be

Handley Supports Right To Work Law Finally Supports Indiana Labor Law TERRE HAUTE. Ind. <UPD— Governor Handley was on record today for the first time in full support of Indiana's "right to work” measure, which he permitted to become law last year without his signature. But he said he opposes federal ‘‘right to work” and would vote against such a bill if he is elected to the U.S. Senate. In a senatorial campaign speech here Thursday night, Handley told a GOP rally his doubts as to the workability of the measure have vanished. “I am no longer in doubt.” he said. "It has not weakened the unions. I am convinced it has made weak unions stronger and is a law that no well-run union need fear.” Observers speculated that Handley may have taken a firm stand on the issue as a result of chiding by Vice President Richard M. Nixon during his two-day campaign visit to Indiana earlier ths week. Others sad the governor’s statement may have been the result of suggestions by Sen. Homer E. Capehart with whom he apparently made at least temporary political peace recently. Previously, Handley had neither definitely supported nor opposed the law. In 1957, the Indiana "right to work” taw passed both houses of the Legislature by narrow margins over bitter opposition by labor unions. Refused to Veto, Sign Handley refused to veto the measure despite a march on the capitol by thousands of union members who labeled the bill a fright to wreck" law aimed at destroying organized labor. He also refused to sign it. and allowed it to become law without his signature. During the 1956 gubernatorial campaign, Handley said such legislation was strictly up to the Legislature. However, despite Handley's ■ sudden approval of the law, he j said he was still “opposed to' such legislation by Congress.” j In line with his opposition to; federal usurpation of state’s 1

rights, a position he shares with Sen. William E. Jenner whom he aspires to succeed in Congress, Handley said "right to work" leg- ; islation is a matter for each state to decide for itself. ! "Because of my firm believe in ;home rule, I would never support ; a law compelling all states to folilow one pattern." he said. "And i neither would I support qne denying them the right to enact ‘right to work’ laws, if they desire to do so.’ „ The governor’s flat support of the state law came nearly 20 months after the measure was passed. It was the first time he went on record with any change in his neutral stand. States Should Decide With scarcely a month left in his campaign fight with Evansville Mayor Vance Hartke and with a Democratic tide obviously rolling in GOP-controlled Indiana, Handley chose to back up the controversial law in this industrial city which was the scene of a general strike in the depression years of the 19305. “Certain radical labor leaders have insisted that the Taft-Hartley Act be repealed and that all states be prohibited from passing ‘right to work' laws." he said. “On the other hand, certain radical employers have demanded that a law be passed forcing all states to accept ‘right to work’ legislation. "They are both wrong. I maintain that the people of each state should be permitted'to do what is best for it, and not for somebody else. “I have consistently opposed the encroachment of the federal government into new fields which would eventually strip state legislatures of their power and bend them to the will of a few men in Washington. Was “Frankly Dubious” “This is not the type of constitutional government envisaged by our forefathers. This is not the constitutional government which the people want today. I shall oppose it if you see fit to send me to Washington.” Handley said when the Legislature passed the bill he was “frankly dubious about it." He said that although he was in doubt about whether the law would be a bad effect on unions, “after studying the effect of the law for more than a year, 1 am no longer in doubt." “It has the approval of thousands of union members who maintain that it makes the union leaders ~more responsive to the wishes of the membership and is a weapon by which corruption and racketeering can be curbed by the members themselves. “It is a law that no well-run union need fear.
