caucus chairman. McQueen was unopposed, Some sources saw in the election of Martin a slap at Governor Handley. But Martin joined GOP State Chairman Robert W. Matthews and Lt. Gov. Crawford F. Parker in insisting Handley took no part in the contest. L, Martin’s election appeared to indicate the GOP was closing ranks in an effort to block any Democratic move to—repeal the “right to work” law. Martin said he felt the Republicans “will see eye to eye” on issues in which the party line is drawn—and one of those issues is sure to be “right to work.” On another controversial issue—the time problem—Martin said “the only new thing I see to be done would be to repeal the 1957 law and let every community have whatever time it wants.” FUELLING Continued from page one Edison Lehmann, 123; Harold Moser, 121; Gilbert Bultemeier, 120; Henry Heiman, 118; Martin Habegger, 116; Eugene Heiman, 116; Franklin Steury, 114; L.

Only a majority vote was required this time, but the twothirds margin* was surpassed. The new plan also does away with commercial corn areas. Under the scheme proposed by the American Farm Bureau and Benson, the government will pay farmers an average support price of $1.12 to $1.15 a bushel in 1959 for all com of eligible quality. Farmers may plant all the corn they want. The near-final returns showed that Kentucky and North Carolina were the only two states to reject the new system. About 2,500,000 farmers in 932 commercial corn counties were eligible to vote in the referendum. But only a small portion voted despite a plea from Benson. Acreage Cut Loomed “Under the new plan, Benson also is required to support oats, rye, barley and grain sorghums at prices in proportion to the corn support level. He normally has done this anyhow. Under the program this, year, the government paid $1.36 a bushel to farmers who did not exceed their quotas. This was 75 pet cent of parity. It paid $1.06 a bushel to farmers who exceeded their allotments. If farmers had voted to retain the present program, the government would have cut total acreage quotas about 18 per cent, to 32 (million acres. Farmers who did hot plant more acres than their allotment would have been paid an average support price of $1.24 to $1.27 a bushel, or 75 per cent of parity in 1959. Officials had indicated that the government would not pay supports next year to farmers who plant more than their quotas if ttje present plan was continued. Under the present system, only farmers within the 932 - county commercial corn area may apply for acreage quotas. Farmers outside this area can receive price supports at the non-compliance rate. The National Grange said at its last national convention that neither plan offered any hope of adjusting com production or stabilizing prices. Seven presidents of Farmers Union organizations in com belt states endorsed the existing propram.

Delay Strike Call Against One Airline Threat Os Further Airlines Strikes Is Slightly Eased United Press International The threat of further strikes in the airline industry eased a bit today and there was hope a sixday walkout against Trans World Airlines would be settled quickly. The outlook for Thanksgiving holiday air travellers brightened late Tuesday when the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPHA) postponed a strike against American Airlines in compliance with a federal court injunction. Earlier, machinists reached a last-minute agreement with National Airlines to head off a strike against a fourth major air carrier. That left Eastern Airlines and TWA, which between them operate about one-third of the nation's commercial planes, still grounded by walkouts. Eastern Tuesday filed a five-million-dollar suit against striking flight engineers and asked one million dollars a day while the walkout continues against the nation’s busiest airline. There was little hope for early settlement of the strike by engineers and mechanics against Eastern. Report Some Progress Progress was reported in efforts to settle a strike by stewardesses against Lake Central Airlines, a feeder line with offices in Indianapolis. Lake Central maintained scheduled flights when pilots crossed the stewardesses’ picket lines. And the Air Transport Division of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks Tuesday night announced an agreement with Pan American World Airways, Inc., after six months of negotiations. The pact will give about 5,000 clerical i workers increases of 15 to 25 cents over their present average hourly wage which ranges from $1.71% to $2.55%. A strike against American, .which had been slated for midnight Tuesday night, was postponed at least until Friday when a court hearing will be held on a temporary injunction banning the walkcut. The walkout would have affect ed 1,491 pilots of American Airlines and would have left only one of the “big four” carriers, United, still in operation. The ALPA had proceeded with plans to carry out the strike against American Tuesday despite the restraining order issued the night before in New York by Federal Judge Frederick Van Pelt Bryan. Hopes Brighten C. N. Sayen, ALPA president, said the court order had not been effectively served on the union and there was a question as to whether “the action has been properly brought.” However, Sayen said that “out i of respect” for the processes of the federal courts, the ALPA would “adhere” to the order and request American Airlines pilots to follow suit. At Kansas City, hopes brightened for settlement of a walkout by the International Association of > Machinists against TWA. The union Tuesday offered TWA a "compromise proposal” in an effort to settle’ the strike, but no details were announced. “It’s all there in that little packet," Cliff Miller, district chairman for the striking mechanics, said. “If it is approved by TWA, all it Is going to take is the signatures and the strike is over.” FORMER STATE Cionrimmed from pnge one ruptionist of them all” and said he “is the type of politician that both political parties hold their noses to.” USE ALL MEANS Ctonttoued from page one general access to Western Berlin and they don't intend to let the Russians get out of fulfilling their duties. —There is slight evidence that the Russians may have carried out additional nuclear test explosions since the Nov. 1 and Nov. 3 blasts detected by the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. This would constitute further Soviet disregard for the test suspension which Britain and the United States undertook and called upon Moscow to observe Oct. 31. —Dulles described as impractical the recent recommendation by the National Council of Churches that the United States recognize Red China. —He saidxthat he does not think that the United Arab Republic’s effort to spread its prestige and influence in the Middle East are Communist inspired." Dulles devoted much of his news conference to the ’Berlin crisis. Trade in a good town — Decatur.

Charles F. Kettering I Dies At Dayton Home Noted Inventor And Philanthropist Dies DAYTON, Ohio (UP!)—Tribute was paid today to Charles F. Kettering, 82, world-famed inventor and philanthropist who died at his nome near here Tuesday of a cerebral hemorrhage. “Boss Ket’’ as he was affectionately known to thousands, died at 2:43 p.m. e.s.t. He never regained consciousness from the second of two strokes suffered since Sunday night. Funeral services will be at 2 p.m. Friday in Dayton’s Christ Episcopal Church, with burial at Woodland Cemetery here. The body will be on view from noon until 9 p.m. Thursday and from 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Friday at the Dayton Engineering Club. Called the last of the auto industry’s “tinkering geniuses, an executive with a wrench.” the General Motors board member and former vice president was best known for his invention of the automobile self-starter. Never content with things as they were, his constant search to improve things accounted for more than 200 patents, including the electrically-operated cash register, tetraethyl lead, the high compression auto engine, improved automotive finishes, freon refrigerant, two-cycle diesel engines and an artificial fever therapy device. Expressions of grief at the death of the kindly genius who ‘“’nn life as a chore boy on his father’s farm near Londonville. umo, came from far and wide. Alfred P. Sloan Jr., with whom he founded the Sloan-Kettering Institute for cancer research in 1945. said his death was a “grave personal loss.” Frederic G. Donner, board chairman of GM, said the “nation has lost an outstanding citizen and the world a truly great humanitarian.” Samuel B. Gould, president of Antioch College, said “the passing of Charles F. Kettering is more than the passing of a man. “It is the changing of a life into a legend, a life which brought untold material goods to America and the world.” The dictionary defines “Podunk” as the "humorous name for any small or insignificant place.
