Rockefeller Likely , To Decide By Fall ( By RAYMOND LAHR United Press International I WASHINGTON. (UPD -It could be, too, that Rockefeller would decide that it was his duty to ’ respond to the invitation. He needs to do something like ’ thSt to get on page 1 occasionally t in competition with Vice President Richard M. Nixon. He now has , no plans for trips outside New I York, but his plans could change. The Rockefeller operation does have some ideas about getting him attention this fall but nothing i so spectacular as Nixon’s Russian tour, which already has lifted the vice president in public opinion . polls. Rockefeller expects to decide this fall whether to contest with ' Nixon for the GOP presidential ribmination 0 if the Gallup poll • should indicate he would be a ' stronger candidate. That poll does not rate him so high now but he thinks there may be a • shift. i Hatfield Urges Exposure Gov. Mark Hatfield of Oregon | already has told Rockfeller that he has to come out of hibernation if he has any thought about being a candidate. Rockfeller has accepted only one television invitation since he became governor but is expected to be seen more frequently on; panel shows this fall. Rockefeller 1 sketches in national magazines are said to be in the works. ' Otherwise the New York gover- * nor has a set of state projects going and at least some of them are expected to get more than local attention. The report of his civil defense advisory board ■ already has done so, largely ■ because of its proposal for a - compulsory program of fallout • shelters in every home. He has put more than 30 task [ forces to work. Half a dozen of these deal with education and ? such subjects as prospective needs for schools and teachers and how new techniques could be used to allow more effective use of the limited corps of teachers. Another study is aimed at developing a program of insurance > against catastrophic illness under private health insurance plans r nd still another seeks ways to enlist privte capital for investment in middle income housing. ’ State Government Review 1 Others involve economic expan--1 sion, a review of the state tax ‘ system, long range transportation needs, parks and recreation, transferability of employe pension rights from one company to another, power resources, hospital services and reorganization of the state government.' Although he already has sucs ceeded in getting one labor ree form measure, for financial ree porting, enacted over mild labor s opposition, Rockefeller also has a e group studying “democracy in i trade unions.” This smacks of t regulating the internal conduct of unions and is almost sure to put him crosswise with the labor movement if carried through in the form of new legislation. Passage of a federal labor law might shelve the project. c Disorderly Conduct ; Case Is Continued , In mayor's court this morning, ’ the case of David O’Campo, charged with disorderly conduct by his wife, Alice was continued indefinitely. The hearing was slated for 9 a.m. today, but a continuance was granted the defendant. A date will be set later this week. - Two Motorists Lose Driving Privileges t Two Adams county motorists lost their driving privileges until i early in 1960, according to a re- ! port from the bureau of motor vehicles. Alvin Orin Blocker, of 1127 Patterson street, Decatur, will have ? his license restored Jan. 20, 1960. He was charged with leaving the scene of an accident. John William Lough, of 433 Winchester street, ' Decatur, lost his license until ■ March 10, 1960, for drunk driving. i 1 Over 2,500 Daily Democrats are ? sold and delivered in Decatur ’ each day. ! r ' ATTENTION MERCHANTS Bring Your Dollar Day Tickets to the Chamber of Commerce Office TUESDAY Winners will Apear in Wednesday's Paper I DOLLAR DAY COMMITTEE « i ..

Governor Handley Return Is Delayed INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — A chpnge in a Cargo consignment aboard a freighter in the Atlantic today delayed the return of two governors to their Statehouse offices. Gov.
