Driver Held After Traffic Fatality INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — Jack McCombs. 27, faced a reckless homicide charge today in connection with the traffic death Monday of Earl Jent. 38. Jent was killed when hit by an automobile operated by McCombs. Cautious Approach Over Civil Rights Ike Keeps Rights Proposals Secret WASHINGTON (UPD — President Eisenhower was pictured today as taking a cautious approach in framing civil rights legislation to send the new Congress. Except for two points, the administration kept secret its civil rights proposals in Monday’s daylong legislative conference with GOP congressional leaders. Atty. Gen. William P. Rogers suggested that consideration be given to providing subpena powers for the Justice Department to use in otbaining voting redords, and that the life of the Civil Rights Commission be extended for two years. The Justice Department now can obtain such records ultimately by calling a grand jury. The new legislation would provide a short-cut to this process. Senate GOP Policy Chairman Styles Bridges (R-N.H.) said it was apparent to him Rogers was taking the cautious approach in shaping up legislation in this controversial field. He gave no indication, the legislators reported, what he thought of other more stringent civil rights proposals. Bridges is scheduled to breakfast with President Eisenhower Wednesday moaning. Eisenhower’s presentation to the Republicans, to be followed by a bipartisan conference on Jan. 5, apparently was an open end affair both on legislation and budget details. Balancing the budget would hinge on expanded Treasury income. / The President offered the GOP congressional chieftains proposals for limited civil rights legislation, a five-cent first class postage rate and a one to one and one-half cent a gallon increase in the ■ federal gasoline tax.

Barge Loaded With Gasoline Explodes Fire Is Threat To , 16 Storage Tanks PASCO, Wash. (UPD — A barge unloading its cargo of gasoline exploded today causing a fire which threatened 16 storeage tanks before it was brought under control. The barg4, City of Longview No. 535, had pumped out most of its cargo of 328.000 gallons but still had about 50.000 gallons aboard when the explosion occurred. « The blast rattled windows a mile away and hurled a portion of the superstructure 75 feet. A portion of the barge remained above water and burned fiercely. Flames swept beneath the dock causing about $25,000 damage to the dock, Pasco Fife Chief Lyle Cooney said. Walter Pirtle, 29, Kennewick, Wash., was hurled into the water but made it to shore and was taken to a hospital here where his condition was reported as fair. | The storage tanks, about 150 feet from the barge fire, were kept drenched to prevent any explosion. Cause of the explosion was not known. Firemen fought the blaze for more than three hours before bringing it under control. Farmers Vole For Marketing Control Vote For Control Over Three Crops WASHINGTON (UPD—Farmers in rice, cotton and tobacco growing states were assured today of relatively high price supports on their crops. They overwhelmingly Monday to continue marketing controls which make the price supports possible under existing lav . ILe vote in the cotton states ran as much as 12-1 in favor of the continued controls, rice 7-1, and tobacco 20-1. The Agriculture Department i said the controls would continue on cotton, extra long staple cotton, rice and flue-cured tobacco. If the cotton and rice quotas had been rejected, federal restrictions on marketing would have been discontinued and price supports dropped to 50 per cent of parity for those who complied with acreage allotments. Those who did not comply would have received no price support. Tobacco farmers voted to accept controls on the 1959. 1960 and 1961 crops. Tobacco produced in excess of acreage allotments will be subject to a penalty of 75 per cent of the average price for the previous marketing year. By law, tobacco is supported at 90 per cent of parity for those who comply with allotments. Approval of the cotton quotas meant farmers will be giveh two choices on how they shall be applied. A farmer may elect to ! grow his crop in compliance with ;his regular acreage allotment and be eligible for price supports of not less than 80 per cent of parity; or he may increase his allotment and be eligible for price support at 15 percentage points below the level provided in the first program, but not less than 65 per cent of parity. The Pentagon estimates that contracts for research and development work during the current fiscal year will come to about 5.8 billion dollars.
