Kennedy, who recently visited in Decatur, has written that the action of the Democratic 86th congress has finalized one fact: the Republicans will never again be able to denounce the Democratic party as the “protector of labor bosses and racketeers.” The bill was approved 90-1 by the senate, and is now before the house of representatives. The bill guarantees the basic rights of all union members — free speech, free assembly, freedom to set union dues, safeguards against improper disciplinary action, and the right to sue in Federal courts for the enforcement of his basic rights. Second, the law sets up strong barriers against the control of the unions by thieves, racketeers thugs, etc, It prevents the use of union funds to perpetuate one group or their friends tn office. It sets up legal means for protection against arbi- * trary control by international unions for the individual. The secret ballot is guaranteed in union elections. It provides machinery for contesting crooked elections in Federal courts. It compels comprehensive reports from unions to the department of labor. It strikes at the heart of the “sweetheart” contract racket by penalizing both parties. Labor leaders must reveal conflict of interest investments. These and dozens of other firm safeguards to the individual union member are included in the bill. It is important to remember one thing, too —while the Democratic party has been criticized as the party* of labor, the convicted hoodlums of labor racketeering have been Republican leaders, not Democrats. That’s right—the big teamster men were Republicans. This bill is an honest attempt to pretent hoodlums from controlling unions. Unions are very important to the growth of America. Their bargaining force keeps salaries high, workers satisfied, and it keeps our capitalistic system strong. A union-busting bill has no place in America. Sure, there are good unions and bad unions, like there are good people and bad people, good corporations and bad corporations. But the principle of unionism is essentially a basic factor in American devolpment. Keeping American unions as strong as American industrial might is very important. The Kennedy-Erwin bill will go a long way towards ironing out some of the difficulties in the large, inter-, national unions. But only the constant vigil of every his own education to better understand everything that develops, will, in the long run, promote better living for all Americans.

The People’s Voice This column Is tor the use of our readers who wish to make suggestions for the general good or discuss questions of interest No articles will be published without signature of I the author. »— — o Halt Flood Threats Flood victims of the St. Mary’s river attention! If we are to live in the vicinity of the St. Mary’s river without fear of being flooded out every time it rains, we must organize a group that will supervise work to curb the flood threat. We must petition that the river be dredged, its banks built up, and similar efforts so keep the river in its proper channels. We can only do it when organized into a team. Everyone must assist in the financing of the ditch dredging, if we are to be free of the constant flood threat. The situation is certainly not going to get better. We may not have a flood for a year or two, but then the rains come and there you have it again. More people are being added to our community daily and if this threat remains, they will have no place to live. For further information on this subject, contact Mrs. James C. Bolt, Decatur route 5, or Mrs. Robert Feasel, Decatur route 3. Sincerely, Mrs. James C. Bolt
Household Scrapbook | By ROBERTA LEE | o - o Tired Eyes Cup both hands for three or four minutes over the closed eyes, and it will rest them and also discourage crow’s feet. The fingers should be kept tightly closed to avoid any light reaching the eyes, and place them together so that they meet in the middle of the forehead, with thumbs placed just back of the ears. Hold in this position for a while, then slowly stroke the forehead with the fingers from center outward toward the temples.

CHAPTER 15 ”I\/TOST PEOPLE don’t like *VI these jokers," Felix LoScalzo said. He finally dropped his captive leech back into the jar, and Murray. Kirk'S breathing .bqpanje. easier. “I don’t know why, but’ that’s the way it goes. Take even a nervy guy like you. For a second there, it looked like you were all set to bust a blood vessel, so I guess you don’t like them either. Isn’t that a fact?" Murray did not vouchsafe an answer to this, and LoScalzo did not seem to expect any. He fitted himself Into his chair, picked up an apple, and bit a chunk from it. "With me," he pointed out, "it’a different. Bloodsuckers might turn your stomach, Kirk, but nqt mine. What makes me break tip is the kind of guy who stakes out an apartment until he can catch a sick woman alone in it—a woman who’s this far away from being a mental case—and then hires some beat-up old actress to go along with him and fool the woman into talking about her husband’s troubles. That's what can really set me off, Kirk. Or don’t you know what I’m talking about?" It was the tone as much as the words that did it, and tn that instant Murray’s complacent sense of kinship vanished In an explosion of blind rage. Then he caught hold of himself. If there was anything LoScalzo wanted—if there was anything he had been aiming at with his whole performance—it was just this. It had almost worked, too, and Murray turned his wrath against himself for that. He had known that the cape was being waved in front of his nose to draw him on, had certainly suspected the blade behind it, and yet had been lured perilously close to wildly charging it and being left for dead. ,What LoScalzo would have to be taught now was that he was in the ring with the wrong bull. "No," Murray said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” “I see." LoScalzo bit into the apple again, and chewed away steadily while he weighed this. "Then you deny that, while acting for a client last Monday, you and some woman entered the home of Ira Miller tn his absence, and spoke to Mrs. Miller there?" Murray smiled. “You know I can't deny something I haven’t been charged with. Are you charging me with breaking and entering?” LoScalzo smiled in return. "I’d like to," he said pleasantly. “Hell knows how much Fd like to, Kirk, just to teach you It doesn't pay to split legal hairs with me. But

Pleasant Mills Is Bible Quiz Winner The Geneva, Berne-French, and Pleasant Mills Bible teams competed for the Bible quiz championships Friday night at the 14th anniversary of Youth for Christ rally in Adams county at the Berne gym. The Pleasant Mills team of Miriam and Nina McAhrenyAJnda King, Carolyn Luginbill, aiW Ella Mae Speakman won top* honors, answering the questions on the book of the Galatians. Bob Davenport, former allAmerican fullback at UCLA and now head football coach at Taylor University, paralleled a football team to the Christian way of life in his main address. Dayenport, who foresook the life of a professional football player to teach Christian values to youngsters, pointed out the similarities of both ventures. The football player and the Christian must be properly equipped and follow strict rules to be successful, he said. A piano ‘ prelude by Ray Welch opened the program with Leroy Sprunger directing the singing and accompanied by Louise Lehman. Adrian Lehman emceed the rally. Special musical numbers were pre-
I won’t. What you and your accomplice were up to when you worked on Miller to change his testimony was conspiracy. And what you and another accomplice syereup to when you tried, to tamper with official records is also conspiracy. And all for one client, too. You must be in a real sweat about that client, Kirk, to put yourself on the spot for him this way." “What spot?” Murray asked derisively. "If you thought you could make a case out of this, would we be sitting here talking about it? I’d be downstairs getting fingerprinted before you were finished peeling your apple.” LoScalzo’s eyebrows went up. “Who said anything about a case?" he asked mildly. He put the core of the apple into the plate, and carefully cleaned his hands with a handkerchief. "All 1 had in mind was a little hearing before the State Director of licenses." That had an unpleasant sound, and the more Murray considered it, the more unpleasant it sounded. The business of the police records was no problem, because Strauss had been smart enough not to walk into the trap,set for him. But the business of Ira Miller was something else again. Miller and that ironclad nurse of his would make murderous witnesses at a hearing, and since Miller himself must have raised this issue with LoScalzo in the first place, there was np question about his willingness to appear as a witness. No question about the nurse; either. She’d, jump through a hoop, if Miller told her to. And the thought of what they would have to say, and how they would say it, led to only one possible conclusion. “All right,” Murray said resignedly, “as the old joke had it: 1 get the point; you can take away the knife." “Not yet," said LoScalzo. “Not so fast, mister. I want to wait until Lundeen’s been brought to trial, and Miller’s taken the stand against him. Then we’U see." "See what? You don’t really expect Miller to run out on you, do you?” LoScalzo held his hands wide, palms up, in a sad gesture. "I’m a simple man, 4 ’ he said “A paisan. When 1 hear the dog Who just tried to run my witness off the stand ask that question I get confused. What is it, Kirk? Are you dumber than you look, or are you so smart I can’t follow you?" "Dumber, * Murray said. "Good. Just keep that in mind,

If a certain word or phrase seems to elude a person who is speaking, is it good manners to supply that word or phrase for him? fA. This might be considered a friendly and helpful service if the speaker is a foreigner who is having difficulty with the English language. Otherwise it would be rudfe and ill-bred. Q. Is it all right, if more convenient, to mail out the wedding announcements a week or so before the wedding? A. No; only invitations are mailed before the wedding. The announcements are mailed immediately following the wedding. Q. Where do the relatives of the deceased sit during the funeral service at the church? A. They occupy the front pews on the right of the center aisle. COURT NEWS Marriage Application Carol May Rauch, 18, route two, Berne, and Curtis Lacy, 25, Celina, Ohio.
and stay far away from my witnesses after this.” “And then?” “Then maybe you’ll be able to hang on to your license, and not have to worry about making an. honest living digging ditches.” “Thanks,” Murray said. He was only too glad to get up from his chair. “And let me know when you run for governor. You can count on my vote.” It was the wrong joke to make at the wrong time. He knew It from the way LoScalzo rose to face him from across the desk; the man’s collar suddenly seemed to be chokingly tight around the bull neck. r'' ■ “Kirk," LoScalzo said in a deadly voice, “some i: time when you’re not busy framing divorce evidence do me a favor. Go through the newspapers and find out for yourself the kind of publicity I’m getting. How many people know about me, and how many give a care.” “Look." Murray said, “you know I was only kidding." "Nobody kids me. about this, Kirk. Nobody at aiL You want to know why? Because for thirty years I handled a practice that made me more money and got me into more dirt than I ever thought could wash off. When this job came along I took it like you take a steam bath—to get clean again. And nobody is going to dirty it for me!" He meant it, Murray knew. Savonarola on the scaffold could not have meant it more passionately. “I’m sorry," Murray said. He held out his hand. “I'll remember that” LoScalzo looked down at the hand, then raised his eyes. “Go on." he said wearily. “Get out of here, before I throw you out” It was not the words which cut deepest It waa not the rejection of the preferred hand. It was the look cm LoScalzo’s face then. The same look, Murray knew, that he himself must have had when he was suddenly confronted by the nauseous thing LoScalzo had lifted from the jar for lib benefit The distorted image of LoScalzo was with him through a series of horrendous dreams that night and then—it seemed no more than a minute —after he had given up caring and sunk a thousand miles deep into dreamless oblivion, the ringing of the phone shrilly started him out of it ; .. The ringing of a telephone can sound disaster, Murray is going to discover. Continue Stanley Ellin’s arresting beetseller mystery here tomorrow.

Recess Negotiations For Steel Contract NEW YORK? (UPl)>—fieg options for a new steel industry labor contract were in recess today, and United Steelworkers President David J- McDonald took his union’s problems to the AFLCIO executive board. McDonald was expected to report in Washington to the spring meeting of the top labor group on the steel industry’s “no wage increase’* ultimatum and also on his “social visit” here last week with President Eisenhower. Steel magazine, an industry weekly published in Cleveland, said today there was no indication of a peaceful solution to the steel dispute. It said it appeared there would be a strike of six to nine weeks which would be settled by a package increase of 6 to 11 cents an hour for steelworkers. : The magazine said a long strike would result in a permanent loss of markets—and jobs—to competing imports from nations whose labor costs are 1-3 to those of U.S. producers. The four-man industry and union negotiating teams have until June 30 to reach agreement to prevent the nation’s sixth-post-war steel strike. President Eisenhower’s top economic adviser said Sunday he didn't believe a steel strike is inevitable but that if it does come and is prolonged it could knock “into a cocked hat” the administration’s hopes for balancing the budgets this year. Raymond J. Saulnier, chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, discussed the situation on a television news program. The current three-year agreement covering 500.000 steelworkers was signed in 1956 after a 34day strike. White House pressure was instrumental in bringing about that agreement. , President Eisenhower and congressional forces are putting the heat on early this year in an effort to influence the negotiators to ■ come up with a peaceful, non-ln-: flationary pact.
