In Mercer county, Ohio the local “hot-rod" club, called the Road Sirs Auto Safety and Courtesy club, has checked 1,452 cars during a county-wide weekend tire check. Four out of ten cars were found to have one or more badly worn tires, which could result in serious injury at any time. o o—— A study of election results shows that farmers in productive areas most affected by the policies of Ezra Taft Benson completely repudiated his views, and fully supported the Democratic views by electing Democratic governors in Kansas, Nebraska, South Dakota, Minnesota, Michigan and Ohio in the Middle West, and Democratic senators in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Ohio. This will probably stop the downward trend in far in prices after an initial period before legislation takes effect. Os course, the of any law can be the deciding factor. A beneficial law administered by a man like Benson, totally opposed to the law, will not help anyone. Democrats can be expected to give Benson as little descretion as possible. Eisenhower can be expected to make a record number of vetoes in an attempt to sabotage the Democratic program, so that Republicans in 1960 will be able to point to a “do-nothing Democratic congress.” • 0 0 A bill for an act to provide for uniform chemical testing for intoxication will be introduced in the next session of the state legislature, which will be split be-

tween the Democrats and Republicans, the former controlling the house, and the latter controlling the senate. Gov. Handley, of course, will have the power of veto over any legislation. This new bill is a good one, and has been quite successful in those states where it has been adopted. In essence, it provides that an application for a driver's license on the highways of Indiana is an implied consent to submit to chemical tests of the breath for determining the amount of alcohol present, if the arresting officer has reasonable grounds to believe the driver has been drinking. This is badly needed in Indiana. Many, many persons who should face the court and the public on the grounds of driving while under the influence of alcohol are charged for the lesser crime of public intoxication, which permits them to continue to drive, just because it is too difficult to prove drunkeness. Under present law, anyone charged with drunken driving can refuse to take the test. Under the change, he could still refuse to take the test, since that is a constiutional right, but if he did, his right to drive under the laws of Indiana would be revoked. There are provisions for hearings and the individual would be fully protected. Only authorized persons, trained in testing, could administer the test. The bill is strongly backed by the Ipdiana committee for the prevention of drunken driving, and the Indiana Council of Churches, among many other groups.

Ike Holds Session On Spending Plans Confers With Vets And Budget Leaders WASHINGTON (UPD — President Eisenhower today faced the first big test of his post-election promise to whack federal spending wherever possible. He scheduled an early morning conference with Budget Director Maurice Stans and Veterans Administrator Sumner Whittier on the veterans benefits section of the federal budget which he will present to the new Congress in January. After spending the morning on this and other conferences, the President planned to leave by plane for Toledo, Ohio, where he will be the overnight guest of former Treasury Secretary George M. Humphrey at an exclusive duck-hunting club on Lake Erie. Veterans benefits are one of the big spending items in the federal budget—Slightly more than five billion dollars this year. They also are one of the “sacred cows" of the budget—an item that politicians of both parties tremble to pare. Most of the present outlay is required by various laws stipulating benefits to be paid to veterans and their dependents under various conditions. The only way the President could seek a major cut in the total would be to recommend changes in the laws. Some congressional observers believe that there is more likelihood of Congress increasing veterans benefits next year than decreasing them. Major veterans organizations plan to stage an allout campaign for pensions for veterans of the First World War. Eisenhower will leave Toledo Saturday for Tacoma, Wash., where he will spend two nights visiting his brother, Edgar Eisenhower, a Tacoma lawyer. On Monday, he will go on to Seattle, Wash., to deliver an address before the consultative council of the Colombo Plan nations.

Modern Etiquette By BOBEBTA LEE | 0. m 0 Q. Would It be right for ma to take my three-year-old son with me to the wedding of a cousin, if I cannot possibly get a baby sitter for him? A. Thia is quite proper, since It has always been deemed comet for the youngest members of the immediate families to attend the weddings. Be sure, however, that you keep him quiet during the ceremony! Q. One of my husband's business associates was a guest at dinner in our home recently, and next day he sent me flowers. Is it necessary for me to write to thank him? A. Yes, this is the proper thing to do. Q. My husbhnd and I dine out with another couple occasinally, and the two men do not like to dance. Would it be all right for the other woman and me to dance together? A. No, not in a public place.
