Plymouth Hospital Rejects Osteopaths INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — A spokesman for the Indiana Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons said today the organization plans further moves in connection with a decision Monday of the Parkview Hospital board at Plymouth which denied two osteopaths the right to serve on the hospital staff. State Sen. Nelson Grills, Indianapolis, legal counsel for the association, said “we are planning further moves but just what we cannot say yet.” ■ Grills said the association’s conference committee would meet “within the week" to discuss the matter and arrive at a decision on what to do. The bsteopaths involved were Dr. Elmer Powers of Culver and Dr. James Miley Jr. of Plymouth. The board of trustees of the hospital turned down their application for admission to the hospital staff after the hospital medical staff’s credentials committee recommended that action. The trustees gave as reasons that the applicants had not completed the required year of interneship in a hospital accredited by the Joint Commission on Hospital Accreditation as required by hospital regulations, and that having osteopaths on the staff would prevent future accreditation of Parkview. Grills, who appeared at the board meeting along with the association president and conference committee chairman, said the action ignored a legal precedent in which a ruling held that the board of trustees can adopt standards but cannot delegate authority to that agency to determine compliance with the standards. Dried Vegetables Dried beans or peas should always be washed before putting them to soak. Often they are kept in bins and are likely to be dusty and in need of a |opd wash. Then soak in fresh water.

ScoresU. S. As Enemy for All Latin Peoples HAVANA (UPI) - Delegates to 1 a Red-tinged Latin American ' Youth Congress gathered in Ha- J vana today to begin work on a master plan for exporting Fidel ! Castro's anti-U.S. revolution to 1 their home capitals. The “symbolic’’ opening of the congress came during a massive , 26th of July revolutionary eele- J bration in the Sierra Maestra j Tuesday night, when Castro de- 1 nounced the United States as the 1 "sworn enemy” of all Latin people. ’ Young representatives from Peru, Venezuela, Argentina, Mexico and other South and Central 1 American republics joined in denouncing U.S. “aggression.” They were gathered around a i hard core of well known Commu- ; nist sympathizers and "Yankee- i baiters” led by Jacobo Arbenz ’ Guzman, exiled former president of Guatemala whose pro-Red regime was overthrown in 1954Ernesto (Che) Guevara, chief of Cuba's National Bank, was scheduled to address the first business session of the congress in Havana Thursday night. All Cuban Roman , Catholics were asked to boycott the meeting. which the church last week flatly labeled “Communist.”

Castro’s speech Tuesday night was viewed as a direct call to his many Latin supporters to force their governments into an open break with Washington. That he has support through the hemisphere was shown Tuesday in various incidents outside Cuba. In Caracas police had to use tear gas to break up a clash between pro-Caswo Venezuelans and demonstrators hostile to the premier. In La Paz, Bolivia, Castro supporters burned two US. flags and an effigy of' Uncle Sam. In Mexico, where it was reported Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev would visit in September, pro - Castro demonstrations also were planned but failed to develop. Instead, anti - Communist students burned a Soviet flag in front of the Russian embassy. The report of Khrushchev’s Mexican visit led to speculation he would use his standing invitation to visit Cuba at the same time.

Mrs. Charles Weis, New York GOP national committeewoman and congresswoman, said she believed that Rockefeller meant what he said. However, a nunjber of Hoosier delegates recalled that Sen. Lyndon B. Johnson- of Texas had spoken similarly before he agreed to be the running mate for Sen. John F. Kennedy, Democratic presidential nominee. There is much sentiment tor Kentucky Sen. Thruston B. Morton, Arizona Sen. Barry ter and keynote speaker Rep. Walter Judd of Minnesota for the vice - presidency, according to Handley. Handley announced that the Indiana delegation would be polled for vice-presidential opinions at a caucus near the convention floor at 5:30 p.m. today, which will be before the presidential nomination of Nixon will be consummated. Handley disclosed that he had refused .an invitation to have breakfast Tuesday with Rockefeller, saying: I took his statement that he is not running for vice-president at face value, and I didn’t want to waste any time having breakfast with him. 4 am mudh more interested in what Nixon wants than what Rockefeller wants.” Jenner In Limelight Former Sen. William E. Jenner, who was one of the leading isolationist ’ senators before he retired. predicted that the national convention would adopt an unsatisfactory plaform. At the Hdosier caucus, Jenner shouted: “To hell with the Republican platform. It probably can’t be distinguished from the New Deal platform. It is like a mother hubbard dress.

I wish we could run on the principles enunciated in that fine speech by Walter Judd last night.” Frank R. Beckwith, Indianapolis attorney, announced he had given up his attempt to become the first Negro in history ever nominated by the Republicans for president.

Willkie for vice-president also (/ell by the wayside despite his popular appeal to parents for their income tax exemtkm for college expenses for their offspring, and elimination of soft courses in schools and a return to educational fundamentals. Tile Indiana delegates staged a short demonstration for Rep. Charles <A. Halleck, Rensselaer, House minority leader, before he delivered his opening speech as convention permanent ’ chairman Tuesday night.

Less Than Inch Os Rainfall In County Adams county received a'small, gentle rain Tuesday that was very much needed in some parts ot the county. Although the rain lasted most of the morning it was not heavy. Gloria Koeneman and Rosemary Spangler reported Preble and Kirkland townships, respectively, received .5 inch of rain.

Weatherman Louis Landrum of Decatur, reported that the city had .35 inch of rainfall. ALL OPPOSITION (Continued from page 1) served his heaviest blows to reply to cries about U.S. weakness heard from the Democratic convention two weeks ago. He credited the nation with great military and economic strength and said: "Whoever misleads by calculated use of some but not all the facts, whoever distorts the truth to serve selfish ambition, whoever asserts weakness where strength exists — makes a mockery of the democratic process and misrepresents our beloved country in the eyes of the watching world.” Delegates Cheer Eisenhower said America’s military might had been achieved by scientists, the armed forces and sacrifices of the people. He brought the delegates to their feet cheering when he said: “To belittle the might, prestige, pride and capabilities of there groups does such violence to my sense of what is right that I have difficulty in restraining my feelings of indignation." Eisenhower bad approve d changes in the defense plank but the revisions still fell short ot Rockefeller's defense program demands. The changes pledged to "accelerate as necessary” the missile programs to provide “any necessary increased expenditures to meet new situations.” On civil rights, the platform committee added pledges for legislation to help desegregate schools ana to prohibit discrimination in housing, and for action to strengthen the Senate’s antifilibuster rule. But it stopped short ot adopting the Nixon-Rock-efeller request for a specific endorsement ot the objectives of Negro sit-in demonstrations, • Token opposition to a first ballot nomination for Nixon faded as tonight’s balloting approached. Rockefeller, long an inactiyti candidate available for a draft, endorsed Nixon Tuesday and tire previously uncommitted 96-vot» delegation from New York threw its support to the vice presideak Over 2,6 Ct Tally • ... .oerats art sold and delivered tn Decatur each day.
