Highway Scandal Trial Continued McDonough Trial Is Continued By Judge INDIANAt’tTLIS (UPI) — Judge Saul Rabb of Marion Criminal Court Wednesday continued the Indiana highway scandal bribery trial of former state highway purchasing director Cecil McDonough until sometime after Jan. 1. A continuance was sought by the prosecution on grounds that the state will be preparing for the trial of highway ex-chairman Virgil (Red) Smith Nov. 17 and this would conflict with the slated trial of McDonough Monday. McDonough is charged with accepting bribes of $4,850 from Arthur J. Mogilner, super-sales-man of highway equipment and supplies, whose business with the state was brisk during the time Smith was chairman. Mogilner is slated to be the main witness for the prosecution When Smith is tried for bribery. The testimony of the salesman led to the bribery conviction earlier of two former associates of ex-Gov. George Craig—his administrative assistant, William Sayer, and his political advisor, Elmer (Doc) Sherwood. Both of these convictions, plus those of Smith and two of his former highway associates, are , in the course of appeal. Smith’s earlier 2-14 year prison term was assessed upon conviction of conspiracy in a Madison Ave. backlot xieal and did not relate to the '51.600,000 sales of equipment to the highway department by Mogilner.

Airline Mechanics Reject Wage Offer To Continue Strike On Capital Airline WASHINGTON (UPD— Capital Airline mechanics have voted to reject the airline’s latet wage i offer and continue their 22-day-old I strike, a union spokesman said I today. The vote against accepting the ' company offer of a 30-cent-an-hour wage increase was 1,214 to 78, | according to Robert T. Quick, 'president of Lodge 144 of the jma chinists ’ union. j Quick said the vote was taken at the four airports where the machinists have the largest membership — Chicago, Detroit, Pittsburgh and Washington. About 2,500 mechanics are’ on strike against the nation’s fifth largest airline. They are asking a i 42-eent-an-hour increase over a two-year period along lith other icontract revisions. f The strike has forced Capital to suspend operations. j The union spokesman said about 1378 mechanics at 20 widely scattered airports did not take part in the balloting. But the 94-per- ■ cent “nd” outcome would not have been affected by their balloting, Quick said. “It ’Wfft- take •jft'jmqre generous wage offer to settle the strike,” Quick said. He added the mechanics’ ijext move would be decided at a meeting of their executive board later today. i The strike has shut down Capital’s flights to 77 cities east of the Mississippi River. The National Mediation Board had tried to bring about a settlement without success. Negotiations were broken off so the strike vote could be taken this week. The present average wage for a journeyman capital mechanic is $2.54 an hour.
Pope John Addresses Newsmen's Audience 500 Newsmen Are Received By Pope VATICAN CITY (UPD — Pope John XXIII received 500 newsmen in mass audience today and told them in fluent but accented French their mission was “formidable.” His use of the word appeared to be the colloquial for “terrific.” But he warned them in the same breath that “truth is sacred. It must never be betrayed.” The Pope addressed the newsmen from a golden throne set up at one end of Clementine Hall of the Vatican palace. He < was flanked by two masters of ceremonies, eight noble guards in shiny helmets and a unit of Swiss guards in ceremonial blue, red and yellow uniforms. He spoke animatedly, waving his arms excitedly and shifting his weight continually on the throne in what turned out to be one of the most extraordinary’ news conferences in Rome’s history. He succeeded in his apparent attempt to establish a feeling of intimacy with his audience, and his amazingly warm personality pervaded the marble hall. He also caught his audience with flashes of the genial wit for which he became known during his eight postwar years as Papal Nuncio in Paris. At one point the newsmen burst into loud laughter when the Pope said: “I often look at newspapers. Not to try to titillate any selfpride, but just to see what is being written—especially what was written revealing the- secrets of the conclave.” He said he began reading the newspapers “during the last few nights in which it was difficult to get the sleep which was necessary to restore me from the so heavy efforts of the last few days.” “Although there were hardly two lines which conformed with the truth, you could see that the efforts to inform the public came from the heart. The journalistic effort was admirable, but silence would have been even better.” The Pope spoke in more emphatic tones about press attempts to portray the Pontiff as “a political pope, a diplomat and so on.” He repeated* what he said during his coronation—the Pope is essentially a “supreme pastor” and nothing more. The Pope ended thp audience by rising to his feet and announcing that he offered his apostolic benediction to those willing to accept it. He used this form apparently because of the many' Protestants among the newsmen. About half of the newsmen knelt on the floor of the chapel, and the Pontiff administered the blessing in Latin with a quick motion of his hand. Then he and his aides walked briskly from the room. I The Pape’s rapid and animated diction and his heavy Italian accent made his French difficult to understand, and as a result, his remarks were lost on most of the newsmen. Not even the French conrespondents understood evTything he said. When the interview was over, hundreds of newsmen scrambled to the Vatican press office for clarification. The weather bureau recorded 1,056 tornadoes in Texas from 1916 through the first half of 1957. If you have something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Want Ad — They bring results.

Algerian Safely Group Closes Shop Dissolved As Result Os Much Bickering PARIS (UPD — The Algerian “public safety committees,” whose extremist policies were repudiated by Premier Charles de Gaulle after they had helped pave his path to power, formally shut up shop today. Rene Denis, secretary general of the committees which led the spring “revolt” against France’s Fourth Republic, announced they have been dissolved as a result of bickering over the current election campaign. “All decisions taken up to now are to be considered as void because they had no legal basis,” D&nis said. As the committees folded, Paris and Algiers buzzed with rumors of secret negotiations between De Gaulle and Algerian “premier” Ferhat Abbas which might produce a cease-fire before the Nov. 28 election. French officials denied the reports, saying De Gaulle is intent on discussing Algeria’s future with elected representatives of the * sprawling African territory rather than the refugees who have set up a “government" in Cairo. Meanwhile, new trouble boiled up between France and Tunisia. A communique published in Tunis charged that that country has been “invaded” by three French infantry regiments from Algeria, supported by tanks and mortars. Although the circumstances of the alleged French attack were obscure — and officials here disclaimed any knowledge of it—it appeared that the French might be seeking to wipe out guerrilla bands fleeing from Algeria. The Algerian rebels are known to have been using Tunisia as a “privileged sanctuary." Trade in a good town — Decatur.
