(Bull) Durham arid Eph Virt, whose arrests were 1 ordered for contempt of court. Circuit Judge John Niblack ordered the arrest Wednesday when the commissioners ignored a court order to sign a payroll, for 102 employes of tty gounty, clerk’s office. •Niblack ordered the payroll signed by 1 p.m. Wednesday after it had been submitted for the commissioners’ approval by Edwin McClure, acting county clerk. Durham and Virt are fighting McClure’s appointment as clerk by i Governor Handley to fill a vacancy caused by the death of Hprry Gasper. When the deadline passed, Niblack cited the commissioners on contempt charges and ordered the sheriff’s department to bring them 1 to court immediately. Niblack ■ fixed bonds of $2,000 each for the 1 commissioners in case they were ' arrested after court closed Wednesday. But deputies armed with arrest Warrants could not find the offi- • cials. Durham and Virt opposed McClure’s appointment. They favored Gasper’s widow, Louise, whom they appointed 36 hours after Gasper died.

Tie-Breaking Vote Is Cast By Nixon WASHINGTON (UPD — Vice President Richard M. Nixon’s tiebreaking Senate vote for a labor “bill of rights” placed him willingly on record today on a key issde of the 1960 presidential race. His associates called it politically a “lucky break.” —lt enabled Nixon as the GOP presidential front-runner to hand a defeat to Sen. John F. Kennedy (D-Mass.), the current leader in Democratic presidential polls. —lt pave Nixon a dramatic chance to show his stand on the ! general problem of controlling later union abuses. Vice presidents may only vote in the Senate when there is a tie. —lt lined up the vice president with his own party on the issue. Thirty-two of the 34 Republican senators voted for the “bill of rights’’ amendment of Sen. John L. McClellan (D-Ark.l. Nixon's vote putting over the McClellan amendment is certain to incur the wrath of labor leaders. But the vice president’s backers expect any labor support he gets to come from rank-and-file members rather than union leaders in any event. On balance, it appeared, he scarcely could have voted otherwise. Before the 45-45 tie vote developed, the Senate had registered its will in favor of the McClellan amendment by a roll call vote of 47 to 46. The tie came on a procedural followup motion designed to nail down the original vote. Thus Nixon's action could be rationlized as one of mere confirmation.

D. *M. Andrews has been dismissed from the Veterans hospital in Fort Wayne, where he has been for several weeks. Mrs. Evelyn Sprunger and “Mr. and Mrs. Lee Ermands of Cleveland, Ohio, were weekend visitors of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Nelson of Carlo, Ohio.
