, .I—l .J. —.... , 1. ■ ■ DEFENSE HELD Continued from paga on* , McElroy said in a prepared statement that the Joint Chiefs of. Staff have pledged in writing to support President Eisenhower’s defense budget. He added that each of the service chiefs may have “some reservations” about the amount provided. . Johnson led off the hearing by asking for a “plain, unvarnished and unadorned” account of the nation’s preparedness. Addressing himself to whether the U.S is prepared to meet Its security requirements McElroy said “It is my belief that the- program provided in the new budget meets these needs adequately. This is not only my belief, it is also the view of the President. “Moreover, it is shared by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, who have said to me in writing that they consider that the fiscal year 1960 proposed expenditure figure is adequate to provide for the essential programs necessary for the defense of the nation for the period under consideration. “The chiefs state that they find no serious gaps in the key elements of the budget in its present, form. While expressing these i views as to the adequacy of the' over-all programs, each chief does! of course, express some reserva-l tions regarding some of the program items of his own service.’’ ASKS CONGRESS Continued from page one al expenses, and also, by getting more for the federal dollar. Benson Outlines Proposals The message was accompanied by a memorandum from Secretary of Agriculture Ezra Taft Benson outlining specific recommendations for a new program. These called for changes in the wheat, tobacco, and peanut programs: Extension of the surplus disposal law under which this country sells farm surpluses abroad for foreign currency; a three-year extension of the conservation reserve; expansion of agricultural reasearch; participation of the states In programs to meet problems caused by drought and other natural disasters; a change in the Rural Electrification Administration program; changes in the Farmers Home Administration and extension of the Sugar Act. The Benson memorandum called for alternative proposals for wheat. He said the preferable approach would be to give wheat growers a program that would permit them freedom to produce and compete for markets. He said this could be done by basing price supports on a percentage of average market prices of the immediately preceding years, eliminating all acreage allotments and marketing quotas for wheat as soon as price supports are adjusted. . .... Soil Bank Extension The alternate program would be retention and tightening of present controls. Benson said if needed: t Price supports based on a percentage of average market prices of the immediately preceding years; elimination of the provision allowing any farmer to produce and market up to 15 acres of wheat; permit all wheat growers to vote in the marketing quota referendum; base compliance with acreage allotments on a planted, rather than a harvested basis; in- - crease the penalty rate for overplanting to a point that will stop this practice; base the penalty for overplanting on actual overproduction rather than the normal yield per acre; eliminate the 55 million acre minimum to allow adjusting the acreage to the amount of wheat th’gt can be sold qnder the price support that prevails; and consider allotments on' a bushel instead an acreage basis. The surplus disposal law would be extended but no time limit was mentioned, a three-year extension was requested for the soil banks conservation reserve program.

PROPOSES STATE Continued from page one motion is permitted on each bill. The House also passed front ’second reading to a final showdown in the house of origin a “ripper” bill to switch patronage in the State Department of Revenue from the Republicans to the Democrats (H 876 and an “implied consent” bill (HB81) to force motorists to take drunkometer tests if so requested., No Debate on Either There was no debate or efforts to amerid either bin. Meanwhile, the Senate Roads Committee tentatively scrapped plans to create a one-man state highway directorship. As originally proposed in Senate Bill 11, the present three-member Indiana State Highway Commission would be abolished. It would be replaced by a single executive who would have complete control over highway affairs. Ibe single head would be aided by an 11member bipartisan advisory and policy commission with members appointed from each of the state’s 11 Congressional districts, But the plan ran into a buzzsttw •of controversy. The most outi spoken critic was Governor Handley, who said a single director [would mean czar-like control. • Sen. Charles Maddox (ILOtterbein), a former highway commissioner and present chairman of the committee, conferred with Handley Monday and later indicated the one-man system would be adopted. No Policy Powers A committee hearing was held late Wednesday. Before it was over, members seemed to be in general agreement with an amendment which would incorporate many of the features in the original bill but which would strip the single executive of policymaking powers. The amendment would set up a four-member bipartisan commission to establish policy. A single executive would serve under the commission, but his sole duty would be to carry out administration of policies determined by the commission. One Republican and one Democratic member of the commission would represent the three northern Indiana highway districts and one member of each party would represent the three southern districts. fte amendment ■ was heß Hi committee for further study when members failed to agree on Whether terms of the commissioner* should be staggered or not. Pass Time Repealer The committee did not consider two other highway “reform” billk, both introduced by Maddox Monday. One <58174) would give control of right of way acquisition to the professional engineer and the other (58175) would transfer the roads purchasing from the State Department of Public Works and Supply to the highway depart-

meat. In other action, the Senate passed 26-22 and sent to the House a bill to repeal the 1957 Indiana time law, and the House passed 51-46 and sent to the Senate a bill providing for a census to be used as the basis for legislative reapportionment. Rep. William Birchler, Cannelton Republican, was denied the right to withdraw as co-sponsor of a so-called “pay grab” bill giving legislators $lO a day expense money, when House members reconsidered permission given the day previously. BROAD CIVIL Continued from page one a proposal to amend the constitution so states and local communities could take full control of the school problem, by Sen. Herman E. Talmadge (D-Ga.). Douglas said his bill, backed by 11 Democrats and four Republicans, would “put our moral house in order.” He said court decisions in Virginia should prove that the “road of massive resistance is a Hind alley.” “I believe it is now time for Congress and the eX e c trf 1v e branch to try massive, assistance, massive cooperation, and massive good will which this bill seeks to mobilize to meet the situation,” Douglas declared. His bill, drafted over a two-year period, authorizes the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare to provide technical help of up to $2,500,000 a year for five years. Could Make Grants The Secretary also could make grants for school facilities, teachers and community aid where states threaten to close schools, totalling 40 million dollars annually for five years. The attorney general could start civil actions for preventive relief, could file compliance actions where conciliation has failed, could sue local officials upon a signed complaint that an aggrieved person was unable to get other legal protection, and could intervene in equal rights disputes. RESUME (Continued from PM* one) ings have as their sole and only purpose delaying or preventing ultimate consideration of this bill by this body,” said Sen. Matthew Welsh <D-Vincennes). Sen. Clifford H. Maschmeyer, a freshman Democratic senator from Clarksville, charged he Was barred from the first hearing and had to stand in the hall until the heading was nearly over. “Not only was I being denied access to this most important hearing,” Maschmeyer said, “but in effect the people of the four countfes who elected me were Tiehied the right to be represented at the hearing.” Maschmeyer said two other freshmen senators were barred also—Sen. Melville Watson <DGreenfield) and Sen. Dewey Annakin (D-Terre Haute). The Stanford Research Institute is trying to determine what would happen in the unlikely event of a reactor explosion. It wants to know the shape of the fragments and what sort of shield would be necessary to contain them.

The unit goal is 52, an increase of ten over the presept number. South district is still reaching only 21%, or one out of five of the boys in the district. In leadership training, south district had 28 units with trained scoutmasters, 66% of the units, out of a goal of 34. The council as a whole had only 56% trained leadership. The goal for next year was set at 33 for south district. - Two-DeepLeaders ' Two-deep leadership,' so that an assistant scoutmaster is ready to

take over the job of scoutmaster whenever it is necessary for the ; scoutmaster to quit, was achiev- - I ed in 31 units in the south dis- ' i trict, which achieved its goal. r The goal for next year is 35 units. 1 The assistants must be 21 yeard ■ old to qualify as the second person in the two-deep area. South district also missed its i goal of 753 promotions in 1958, with only 643 boys promoted, according to the official records. The 1959 goal will be 748. Only one troop in the south district reached the goal of having 40% of the troop first class scouts or higher; there were 19 troops ‘ in the council that achieved this goal. In 1957, 31 achieved it. Boy’s Life Used South district had 70% of its boys subscribing to Boys Life, the scouting magazine, but the council was down 18% from the year before. J A total of 26 of the 37 explorer j posts were represented at Operation Deep Freeze last weekend. Also, 975 scouts were at Big ’ Island last summer, and 1,200 are 5 planned for this year. South dis- ‘ trict had 247 scouts at summer camp, 145% of its goal. ’ After Van Horn’s report, the assistant regional executive spoke briefly before the charter was re- • newed. He explained the council’s need to reach more boys and for better training. The group then broke up into ’ separate committees, and reportt ed out their-chief goals for 1959. R.
