new schedule it would only amount to $3,700. The council members voted themselves a raise of $l6O a year, to S4OO.

Moscow Hints West Backout
LONDON (UPD — Moscow Radio complained today that the West is getting ready to back out of any summit talks. The official radio voice of the Soviet Union suggested in an English language broadcast the United States was leadin the way amon “certain Western circles’’ which do not really want the talks. A Moscow Radio commentator said although no official communique" was Issued after the talks between Prime Minister Harold Macmillan and President -Eisenhower, “newsmen almost unanimously underscored that the U.S. and British leaders were ready to go to the top-level conference regardless of the outcome of the foreign ministers’ meeting.” But Wednesday, Moscow said, “American officials warned that the convening of a top-level conference should not be considered as something already settled.” “This leads one to believe that certain Western circles, mainly American, are preparing the ground for backing out,” the commentator said. “It looks as if they win not reconcile themselves to the idea of having to give up their oldfashioned foreign policy conceptions and to take the course of common sense for the peaceful adjustment of disputed issues.” British newspapers were anything but unanimous this morning on the prospects for a summit meeting. The Daily Express said, “it’s looking brighter — hopes of a summit are growing.” But the News Chronicle in equally big type said “doubts cloud summit.” The Daily Herald said the summit temperature was “rather chilly.” j 11 f j ///> y Up And At It The Blue Creek Up and At It 4-H club met recently at the Kimsey school, electing officers The 1958 officers conducted the meeting which had 100 per cent attendance of members.

Feel-Washing Riles Reinstated By Pope ROME (UPD—Pope John XXIII today humbly washes the feet of 13 priests representing the 12 apostles and Christ himself. The rites marking Holy Thursday before Easter were being held at the major Basilica of St. John in Lateran, known as the mother church of Christianity, and the Pontiffs own church as bishop of Rome. The washing of the feet commemorates that act of humility by Christ himself during the Last Supper, the night before hi s crucifixion. Pope John reinstated the tradition for the first time this century. _ Early popes performed the commemoration by washing the feet of 12, the number of the apostles. But at the turn of the sixth century, according to a Roman Catholic tradition, Pope Gregory the Great found a 13th pair of feet before him. He washed them, too, without question, and according to tradition Christ then appeared to the Pontiff in a vision and told him the feet were his own. , Since that distant day, up to 1870 when the Italians stormed Rome and placed ail end to the temporal power of the popes, popes carried out the hallowed rite listing the number of persons chosen for that honor as “12 plus __ _ ” one. , < • , „ i The rite takes place today at the singing of the Vangel inside the magnificent basilica. The 13 priests have been selected by the archpriest of St. John’s, Benedetto Cardinal Aloisi Masella, among ecclesiasts of the basilica itself.

Scores Methods Os Inexperienced Cops EVANSTON, 111. (UPD — Inexperienced police are talking crooks but ot confessing, one of the nation’s top criminal interrogators charged today. The expert, Northwestern law professor, Fred E. Inbau, said the popular version of six burly cops sweating under hot lights over a fatigued suspect was about the world's worst way to get someone to talk. “You get a sex criminal or a murderer and they almost are begging for a chance to tell someone their troubles,” Inbau said. “So what happens—they get stuqk in a dingy room with a roup of officials badering them. Even in everyday life people don’t confide problems to a group. It’s just common sense to talk privately under pleasant surroundings.” Inbau, a pioneer in scientific crime questioning, addressed newsmen from 22 states, Japan, France and Bolivia, attending a week-long, Ford Foundation supported Northwestern University short course in news analysis and reporting.

He said the problem of questioning suspects should be broken into two crime-motivated categories : Emotional and nonemotional. “Emotional criminals—murderers, rapists, hit-and-run drivers—should be approached with sympathy/’ Inbau said. “Criminals by financial gainburglars. robbers and the like—should be given a factual analysis that they're not going to get away with it.” He said if all police followed this the third - degree approach would become obsolete.
