Matt Welsh, the Democratic candidate for governor, Monday noon. The hour session reviewed the coming campaign. Hoosier Democrats have good cause to be elated this year. First, they have a candidate for governor - whose great strength lies'in his integrity, experience, and proven leadership in the state senate. Welsh’s public relations are being directed by Dick Martin, well-known to most Hoosier Democrats, as he has been with the state committee in past campaigns. Martin is married to a niece of Claude Foreman, of Decatur, who was a Blue Creek township precinct committeeman for many, many years. The Welsh campaign is already a month ahead of former Democratic campaigns. For the first time in decades, a fine state headquarters office on the first floor, facing Washington street in Indianapolis, and connecting at the rear with the second-floor state chairman’s office, has been opened officially on Aug. 1. Last week the candidate and his assistants were already missing meals and working until midnight—a thing that is usually common only after Labor Day. A state budget of nearly half a million dollars, which is large by Democratic standards, has been pledged by the various counties. The Democrats are going all-out this year, and confidently expect to win. In fact, the major news service reporter agrees with this, and believes that the Democratic state ticket will undoubtedly win this fall. Last Friday the Marion county leaders met with Welsh, and on Sunday more than 700 jammed into tile Riley room from every county and district in the state. Presidential candidate John F. Kennedy will be the speaker at a huge rally in September in Indianapolis, a SIOO a plate affair, to raise additional funds for the campaign. This is going to be a great Democratic year in Indiana. When successful, it will be the first complete changeover since 1932, when the McNuttTownsend administration went into office. Literally thousands of jobs will be available through the Democratic county chairmen of the state to qualified men and women who wish political experience. * This will be a grass-roots campaign, and every Democratic leader can expect the close cooperation and ’' confidence of Welsh. His interest in every Hoosier, his proven integrity in public office, make him the outstand- - ing candidate of the century on the Democratic ticket.

Uniform License Fee To Be Sought

INDIANAPOLIS (DPI) — The State Board of Accounts is planning to ask thz Indiana Legislative Advisory Commission today to end license fee discrimination between male and female dogs. The board wants a uniform fee for ail dogs regardless of age or sex. At present, the fee is 81 for each male or spayed female, $3 for each unspayed female and $5 for each additional dog. "As a result of the higher fees (for some dogs), a relative small number of dogs are reported and Bcense fees paid lirthe IMter~two classifications,*’ the board said in a memorandum to the commission. A $2 fee per dog was suggested. The commission will meet all day today to receive reports recommending proposed legislation from the Indiana liieter Resources Study Committee, the State Board of Accounts, financial institutions, the Division of Labor, the A*feronautics Commission, State Tax Board, Residence Laws Study Committee, and Northeim Indiana Lake Front Study Committee. A controversial 1959 law which requires annual registration and separate tax assessment of all motor vehicles may be repealed before it becomes effective in 1962. The State Board of Accounts, which had the job of reviewing the property tax system in Indiana, will recommend its repeal to the commission. The law was designed to plug a loophole by which many auto owners avoid payment of property taxes. It specifies that a separate assessment be made of each motor vehicle rather than include it in with other personal property and that a separate paid tax receipt be issued by .the county treasurer. Also, me Bureau of Motor 'Vehicles and its branches are required by the law under penalty of a fine, to require proof of such tax payment before

B. 636 E Salisbury, Southern Rhodesia, Africa Thursday, July 21, ’6O Dear Folks: We have been here at this mission station almost a week. The family that we have been living with has been very kinds to us. They are the Carrots. In the States he was a lawyer, a judge, and a senator but he gave up his career to come to Southern Rhodesia to be superintendent of the ru£al schools in this area. They have two little girls who are as sharp as tacks. Upon our arrival here the children had maleria and the doctors gave them medicine for it. They are over it now. This morning Alice Jean had a piece of glass taken out of her finger at the hospital. It was a piece of glass that has been in her finger since we were in Belgium. We had trouble getting it to heal but it finally did. She has been complaining of her finger and the doctor looked at it and said he would take it out after conference (he looked at it before we went to conference). Anyways he found it this morning and removed it so -everything should he alright by now. We arrived here Friday evening. On Saturday 1 went with Mr. Carrol to one of his rural schools. There were six schools there for all kinds of contests. They really put on fine performances. I took some pictures and I hope they will turn out o. k. I also was invited to eat dinner at the. home of the teacher at that school so Mr. Carrol and I ate dinner with some Africans. They treated us fine and we enjoyed it. On Sunday we went to church and Sunday School. They have a Jovely brick church here. One of the Congo missionaries brought the message and the pastor transaltpd it into Shona which is the native language here. We ate dinner with the Fleshman family who live here. They were friends of ours from Scarritt. In the eveservice in English. Tuesday evening the Bishop arrived here and had a meeting with the missionaries from Congo. He was at Leopoldville on his way to conference at Katako Kombe when the terrible mutiny began with the soldiers. He told how they had to take refuge in the American Embassy and how they finally escaped across the river into a different country. He told some of the terrible things that happened—killings, missionaries tied up and beaten, many i women raped levan missionaries • raped.) It didn’t’ make any dis- ; ference who you were. It was an I

issuing an annual registration form. The board asked that the 1961 Legislature repeal the law and cited five reasons for its request; "1. Impractical for reason of multiple receipts required. “2. Duplication of duties placed on the county treasurer and county assessor. "3. Invites confusion and error. “4. Attempts to control one of the most fluid markets—the automobile rade—which from one day to the next presents a maze of complexities beyond the control of county officials.” “5. Attempts to fix, by certified statement, conditions of ownership, and taxes thereon, conditons which could not be verified without a cost much in excess of the nominal additional revenue sought.” The board also urged a ban on a special census by various governmental units in order to get a bigger share of state fund distribution. and that the oumoded sixyear sate census of males be abolished entirely. Under present law, distributions of motor vehicle highway and alcoholic beverage funds are made on the basis of the last preceding U.S. census. Cities which figure that the cost of a special nose count will be less than the gain in increased funds sometimes arrange a special census rather than wait for the regular 16-year tally. The -board noted that the 1865 law calling for an enumeration every six years of all male inhabitants over 21 “serves no useful purpose and entails expenditure of a considerably large sum of money by the respective counties.” The next such count would be required March 1, 1961. The memorandum noted that this “would give the 1961 General 'Assembly time to act before that date.”

outrage against the whites to destroy or drive them out and take over their possessions. Is it any wopder the American government gave the orders to evacuate! There were five men. who refused to come out with the rest of us. The Bishop talked with them by radio and persuaded them to come out of Congo so they left on Tuesday by plane. It was their last chance to get out. They are probably in Salisbury now. The Bishop talked with the Board of Missions by telephone The Board recommends that we stay here for a month to see if there will be any possible chance of returning to Congo. Some of us will probably be put to work here but the Bishop plans to go to Elizabethville at the first of the week to seek if it is possible to have us all go to the Katagana (southern Congo) for all seems to be quiet there are the Europeans are returning but we will not go unless the American Consul says it is safe so I think it will be a few weeks before we will go there. Anyways we will have to wait to see what happens. I’ve had a cold (first since I’ve ■ been in Africa). It is due to the ■ sudden change in temperature. It is cold here and quite different from Congo. Yesterday I spent most of the day in bed trying to get rid of my cold. I feel much better today. We ate dinner at Fleshman’s today. I am scheduled to speak in prayer meeting tonight and the native pastor will translate for me. Since we haven’t received a particular assignment I thought we might as well take advantage of this opportunity of seeing some of the sights in Southern Rhodesia. We are planning to leave tomorrow with one of the families here for a week’s vacation. We plan to go to Victoria Falls which is 375 miles from here, I hope to get some good pictures so you will be able to see them. We don’t know how long we will be here so please write us here and when we leave we will leave our forwarding address. We are o.k. except our hearts are back in Congo and everything that we have earned together is there but two suitcases of clothes and Alice Jean’s accordion. Keep remembering us in prayer during this time of confusion. May God richly bless you. Love, Estherjean, Harry. Alice Speakman.
