National Debt Hike Approved By House Group WASHINGTON (UPD — The House Ways , and Means Committee today approved President Eisenhower’s proposal to increase the limit on the national debt but withheld action on his proposals for raising the interest rates on government bonds. The influential House group voted to authorize a temporary debt ceiling of 295 billion dollars for the coming year as Eisenhower requested. But it went only part way on his recommendation that* the permanent ceiling be boosted to 288 billion dollars. 'Die committee bill would- set the permanent ceiling at 285 billions. At present, the permanent ceiling is 283 billion dollars, the temporary ceiling due to expire July 1 is 288 billion dollars. This is not enough to permit financing of the federal deficit in the coming months. /Other congressional news: Housing: The Senate, bowing to an administration budget - balancing demand, chopped 200 million dollars from a House - approved GI housing bill. The bill would now provide 100 million dollars for direct federal lending to veterans in rural and small urban areas who cannot get private home financing. It was returned to the House, which approved a 300-inillion-dollar measure Feb. 4.

ett M. Dirksen of Illinois said after the weekly legislative conference with Eisenhower that the administration favors a vote as soon as possible. Democratic Leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas said he thinks there is a reasonable chance (or a vote this week. But, Sen. Wayne Morse (D-Ore.) was reported ready to object to any immediate cut-off of debate. Aid: President Eisenhower is “deeply concerned” over cuts being rpade in military foreign aidj Republican congressional reported after their White House conference, They said that Defense Secretary Neil H. McElroy told them at the weekly meeting | that a 10 per cent cut in such aid made by the House Foreign Affairs Committee was, definitely damaging to our security. Metals: A group of western senators proposed that import taxes be levied on imported lead and zinc when the domestic price falls below certain levels. Their bill would impose a 4 cents a pound tax on lead if the price sags below 15% cents a pound and a similar tax on zinc if the price goes below 13% cents a pound. Airports: Congress was in retreat from legislation that would increase federal aid to airports far more than recommended by Eisenhower. The Senate, faced with veto threats, Monday approved a pared-down bill which would continue the aid for two years at the present 63-million-dollar-a-year level. The House was expected to go along with the Senate bill. Roll Call In House Shows light Votes INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—A check made in the Indiana Legislative Bureau of the total number of votes cast for all bills passed in both Houses of the 1959 General Assembly disclosed some heavy “skating" in the lower chamber on the final Saturday of the session., _ A spokesman said the roll call at the opening of the day’s session showed 71 in their seats and voting, and that this, plus the signa-, tures of the presiding officers ft what counts in determining the validity of the voting. A legal quorum for the House is 67. But during the day, as many as 18 of the 71 lawmakers were away from their desks when votes were recorded. Fourteen bills passed by the House that day by votes ranging from 51-2 to 66-0. The Senate check did not disclose any bills passed with less than a quorum voting. Among the 14 bills with less than a total of 67 representatives putting themselves on record were measures to increase the pay of city election officials, establish a manual ’for personal property assessment, make possession of deer out of season prima facie evidence of lawbreaking, hiking mileage rates for pctjj jurors, and changing the size o f the Annellate Court. All were Senate bills. However, the House beat the Senate in the time reouired to complete their journals. The lower chamber finished last week—a record—but the Senate's journal is not expected to be done for some time yet. Over j ny Democrats »r<> sold 8' j de” ■ J ~ed *n Decotm “»ch da»

Decatur Resident Writes Os Visit To> Daughter In Germany “I had a wonderful trip from Fort Wayne to Frankfurt, Germany," writes Mrs. Maud*Mahan, of 130 South Sixth street, who left by airplane May 26 to visit with her son-in-law and daughter, M/Sgt. and Mrs. Edward J. Casanova and children. "Because of motor trouble on the way over we had dinner In London, England. The Casanovas met me at the airoort in Frankfurt.” “The scenery here in Germany is beautiful. There are hills and valleys all around us. The hills are covered with trees, mostly pine. The villages are close together and very picturesque with their lovely flowers and well-kept gardens. "One day in a little village I saw a wagonload of hgy pulled by two. cows. Another time I saw a man plowing with one, while another i man vid it. You don’t see many horses or tractors here. A lot of the farm work is done by hand on the small farms. “The ruins of many old castles,' high up on the hills, may be seen as you drive through the 'valleys, j All is very beautiful.” June 6. Capt. Ivan Mahan arrived from Madrid, Spain, for a weekend visit with the family. At a later date, Mrs. Mahan will go to Madrid for a visit with her son.

Chicago Milk Strike * Ended Early Today CHICAGO (UPI) — A spokesman for the Associated Milk Dealer* announced today a settlement had been reached in a milk processors strike which had cut off the flow of milk from dairies in this area. A marathon negotiating session began at 10 o'clock Monday night and ran through without a pause until about •’ a'm. today. It was expected that workers would b? back on their jobs shortly. Deliveries presumably could be made today, the spokesman said. The settlement terms were not announced immediately. The walkout began Monday, when about 2,650 members of the Dairy Employes pnion represent- | ing those who work inside the dairies, walked off their jobs in a wage dispute. At the time of the walkout, the drivers trucks had been loaded and deliveries were . made Monday. • 1 I But the city’s supply of milk ran low in a hurry under the pressure of frantically buying house- , wives and restaurants, and offic- ! ials of the Milk Wagon Drivers Un--1 ion threatened to join the strike. I The drivers joined in negotiations with the inside workers and worked through the night until an agreement was reached. | Skeleton crews remained on the

job to process milk for deliveries to hbspitals, schools, military installations, veterans institutions and orphans and old peoples homes. Negotiating sessions continued through the night as the milk dealmet alternately with the driveri and the inside workers. "I think we’ll both reach agreement sometime this morning," said John Gow, a trustee and executive board member of the Dairy Employes Union. “We're ready to go back to work as soon as a settlement is made, and we can start processing right away, so that deliveries could be made today.” Both unions have been working without a conti act since April 30. The Dairy Employes Union broke off talks Sunday night by resumed bargaining Monday after setting up picket lines. Steelworkers Strike Indianapolis Plant INDIANAPOLIS (UPD,,— United Steelworkers went on strike at the South Wind Division of StewartWarner Corp, here today shortly) after their collective bargaining contract expired. About 625 production workers were involved. Pickets were assigned to plant entrances shortly after midnight, when a three-year contract ran out. Trade ii a goor jjwo — Decatur I

May Hold Election In West Berlin BONN, Germany (UPD— The West German parliament today was reported inclined to hold its presidential election in West Berlin July 1 in defiance of Communist threats to blockade the iso- i lated city if the voting is held there. > Two parliamentary committees Monday recommended Berlin as the site despite allied objections, but the final decision will come Thursday when the full bo<W of Parliament puts thq matter to a vote. At the same time, the Christian Democratic Party nanied Agriculture Minister Heinrich Luebke as its presidential candidate, thus sealing Konrad Adenauer’s decision to remain chancellor until his term runs out in 1961' Since the party will control 517 of the 1,038 votes in the presiassembly election, Luebke was considered an almost certain winner. ,: There will be two other candi--1 dates, Socialist Carlo Schmid and Free Democratic Party member Max Becker. When Theodor Heuss was elected president for the second time five years ago, the balloting took place in West Berlin. But then the beleaguered city was not under the intense Communist pressure being applied to it today. I

TUESDAY, JUNE 16, 1959

The East Germans have declared that holding the West German presidential elections there now would be a "provocation” against the Communists. Gerhard Eisler, East German propaganda boss, warned 11 days ago that the Communists would blockade the city as long as the presidential assembly was in session.
