Blackmail Charged By Gov. Handley Assails Demand By Senator Johnson United Press International Governor Handley charged “blackmail" today in connection with a demand by Senate Majority Leader Lyndon Johnson of Texas that federal highway aid to Indiana be stopped pending an investigation of the Hooiier scandals. Johnson, in a campaign speech in Salt Lake City Saturday, called for a Senate probe of reports of “tie-ins between some Republican labor leaders and a Republican state government” before any more U. S. money is spent on Indiana road. “This is just another typical example of a New Deal politician using public money by threatening to withhold it in an attempt to blackmail and intimidate voters and steal elections,” Handley said of Johnson’s statement. The governor said his administration was "untouched by scandal” and offered to "let the entire United States Senate corpe into Indiana and investigate us from top to bottom.” Handley’s Democratic opponent, Evansville Mayor Vance Hartke, implied that Republican statements that they broke the highway scandals and prosecuted and convicted the lawbreakers were inadequate. Hartke said former state officials convicted in scandal trials were only "little fish” and another investigation was needed to get the big ones. Hartke said the scandal was a “major" campaign issue and “it is my opiniop that because of the highway scandals in Indiana, Harold Handley has refused to debate me." Trade in a good town — Decattir.

Mishawaka Man Is Killed In Michigan CASSOPOLIS, Mich. (UPI) — Henry Frank Strantz, 47, Mishawaka, Ind., was killed Sunday night when his car slipped off a highway on a curve eight miles northeast of here and hit a tree. Time Situation At Franklin Confusing Business Houses On Daylight Time FRANKLIN, Ind. <UPD—Franklin's time situation grew more confusing today. 1 City shops, stores, professional offices and one of the city’s two industrial plants switched to “fast” time. Schools and ttye other factory stayed on "slow” time. When Indianapolis decided to stay on “fast” time all winter, the Franklin City Council voted 3-2 to ignore what Indianapolis did and revert to “slow” time in compliance with the 1957 state time law. Commuters who work in Indianapolis and live in Franklin immediately opened a fight to get the city to conform to Indianapolis. The council refused to change its mind. The Chamber of Commerce conducted a poll and 79 per cent of more than 2,300 persons who voted favored “fast” time. The chamber's Retail and Service Divisions, after a 14-3 vote for “fast” time by 17 community leaders, recommended all shops, stores, institutions and schools change to “fast" time. The school board voted to stay on “slow” time, at least temporarily. The Franklin Ministerial Association, in a public statement, commended the council for “its courage to stand up for what it believed to be right and lawful even against the pressure of a majority public opinion.” Arvin Industries, Inc., the city’s largest plant, decided to stay on "slow” time. Varynit Mills decided to switch to "fast * time.

Plane Seized By Rebels, 17 Dead In Crash Only Three Persons Survive Crash Into Sea On Saturday HAVANA, Cuba (UPI) — U. S. Ambassador Earl T. Smith announced today he would send a plane today to the area of Cuba where four rebels seized a Cubana airliner Saturday and caused it to crash into the sea with a loss of 17 lives, seven of them Americans. Earlier, Smith said he would fly to the scene himself. There was no reason given for this change of plans, although observers noted he would have placed himself in danger of possible capture by the rebels had he gone. There also was no reason given as to why he was sending a plane to the scene, although it was presumed it would carry personnel to help in investigating the incident so far as it affected the Americans aboard. Three persons survived, including one American. The bodies of the victims were believed sealed in the fuselage of the huge British - made Viscount turboprop plane in ten feet of water in Nipe Bay near the Preston Airfield on the north coast of Oriente Province. Authorities were trying to raise the fuselage today in hopes of identifying the rebels who forced the pilot off course at pistol point and tried to make him land near rebel-controlled territory. All four rebels apparently were killed in the crash. Authorities said one of the survivors, Osiris Martinez, a naturalized American of Chattanooga, Tenn., told them the four rebels forced pilot Ruskin Medrano at pistol point to head for Preston. The plane left Miami Saturday afternoon on the 45 minute flight to Varadero Beach, a resort area 87 miles east of Havana. Preston airport had no night landing facilities but the pilot was given the choice of trying to land the big plane there —or being shot. He tried and failed and the plane plunged into the shallow bay. The survivors included Martinez and two Cuban citizens. Martinez’ wife, the former Betty Haney of Chattanooga, and their three children were killed along with American Edmund Ponce de Leon, 22, of Miami, Fla. The survivors were under medical care in a United Fruit Co., hospital at Preston. They were reported in good physical condition and without apparent injuries though suffering from shock. None at first was able to give a coherent accoupt.

Jet Transport Age Trip Is Described Caught In Traffic Jam Over Iceland By DOC QUIGG United Press International NEW YORK (UPl)—Hie wonder of the jet transport age is on us, and as one who has completed a round-trip on Pan American’s new jet service to Paris, I’ll cite you just one item of wonderment: We got caught in a traffic jam over Iceland. You might thing, as we all did, that the unlikeiest spot on earth for a traffic tie-up would be the chilly airways over Iceland, but there we were, approaching Keflavik Airport from ori high, and the airplane skipper’s voice said on the speaker system: ‘•We’!! have to hold here for a* while before landing, because of traffic.” And so we did. But not for long. We got cleared for landing and went into a dido which the pilot described as “jet penetration." Voice Out of Sky This is just a quick whirligig to the ground, corkscrewing exhilaratingly around and among the clouds in a fast descent from 30,000 feet or more in a maneuver that makes a propeller driven plane seem as lazy as a bounddog on Sunday afternoon. About half way down, a great voice out of the sky began talking to us. The pilot was making a GCA (ground controlled approach) landing just for practice —even though the weather was clear. This is the procedure in which the ground station catches your plane on its radar in lowvisibility weather and talks the pilot right down to the ground. In this cas?, our pilot turned the directing voice onto the passengers’ speaker system for our amusement. So there we were flat on our reclining seats in midair with the mysterious voice telling us to go right a little. . . left a little. . .you’re on the glide path. . .you’re 25 feet low, bring it up a little And so on, right down to the bump of the landing, at which time the voice signed off with a crisp accolade: “Pretty good job.” Off again homeward, we turned far northward because of unfavorable winds of a low pressure area in our normal path. It was at 6:17 p.m. that the skippier made another wonderful announcement: “Ladies and gentlemen, we are going to pass over Greeland, and you will notice as we go alog that the sun will actually gain altitude in the West." An Exquisite View It’s a weird, magnificent, exquisite view, and as I looked I became aware I was gazing past a row of square little metal pieces sticking up on the wing surface like oversize razor blades. A Pan American public relations man, queried, • explained: “Them there is the vortex inducers.” What? What do they do? “Induce vortexes,” he replied. * Well, to make a long palaver short, the wing of the new Boeing jet transport is so perfect that the air glides over it so evenly and smoothly and massively that it tends to make the controls harder to work. So Pan American rigged up the vortex inducers to make little vortexes, or whirlpools, to bust up the airflow a bit. The controls work easier. You make a thing so perfect that you have to un-perfect it a little. As I say, it’s a wonderful age- ___ Joseph tostello Is Named Outstanding Joseph C. Costello, well known Decatur ydung man, was named the outstanding Catholic young adult of the Fort Wayne diocese at the diocesan youth convention Sunday at Fort Wayne.
