DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Biller Contest In Tennessee Today NASHVILLE, Tenn. (UPD— Tennessee Democrats vote today in a bitterly contested primary considered a dress rehearsal for the role the South will play in the November presidential election. The issues are simple and I clear-cut: The civil rights liberalism of Sen. Estes Kefauver (DTenn.) versus the states’ rights, secregation conservatism of Kefavuer’s politically powerful challenger, Circuit Judge Andrew (Tip) Taylor. Throughout the campaign Taylor has criticized Kefauver’s civil rights voting record in 22 years in Congress. Kefauver, in defending. it said last week, "my vstes. were exactly the same as Sen. Lyndon Johnson’s. But Lyndon is : a hero, and I’m smeared all over Tennessee.” Political Oddball The Deep South, frankly and openly, has considered Kefauver i a sort of political oddball since : he was first elected to Congress in 1938. He said in his first Senate race 10 years later his pur- | pose had little to do with ordinary . hardscrabble politics. As he ex- . pressed it: ‘‘Die deepest desire . in my heart is to see world peace realized. “I want to' be one of . those who makes it come true.” To achieve that he had to buck ’ the all-powerful political machine ’ of the late E. H. Crump of Mem- , phis. For the first time in 20 ; years Crump’s candidates .Jost—- ! and one of the main reasons was * a sarcastic comment that backfired. Dons Coonskin Cap 1 The Crump forces lampooned Kefauver as a ‘.‘pet coon” of the administration. Kefauver, whose ' life and career seems that of a • Democratic Abe Lincoln, promptly donned a coonskin cap and re- , plied: “This coon may have a ring around its tail, but it will never have a ring through its nose.” The 6-foot-3 Kefauver has been fighting the odds and winning ever since. His publicized Senate investigation of organized crime in 1950 and 1951 gave him a head start toward the 1952 Democratic presidential nomination. He went to the convention that year with more pledged delegates than any other candidate, but party leaders did not want him. He tried again in 1956, but the opposition of the South and former President Truman Mocked his way. He settled for the vice presidential nomination. ~ \ Tubeless Ante Tires , When a small leak in a tubeless auto tire will not show a bubble when submerged in water, look the tire over carefully and put a smaU dab of mucilage or liquid glue on every indention that could possibly be a leak. The mucilage or liquid glue will reveal a small leak where water will fail. Rust-Free Keep the inside surfaces of breadboxes and other tin containers from rusting by coating them with some melted paraffin. Prevent Lumps Brown sugar will not become lumpy if it is stored in your refrigerator. A Goad Scourer \ Pumice is one of the best household scouring and polishing agents. Pumice Is a spongy, porous stone tossed out by volcanoes and it is usually a form of obsidian, should you be curious, containing from 60 to 75 per cent silica. It can be obtained as a stone, or in powdered form in varying degrees of fineness, at paint and hardware stores. Many commercial scouring powders contain pumice. Whiter Paint For a cold-white color in an exterior paint composed of white lead and linseed oil, add a little raw sienna. This tends to neutralize the yellow in linseed oil, and the paint will bleach white. i - Mildewed Clothii* •. <£sl Midew in clothing will respond to an overnight soaking in buttermilk.

Nixon Carries Campaign Into Hawaii Islands HONOLULU (UPD—Vice President Richard Nixon beamed his presidential Campaigning today into the remotest reaches of this far-flung island state as he backed up his pledge to campaign anywhere and everywhere as the GOP presidential nominee. Nikon believes that even the smallest state may decide what he sees as a hairline November contest and he is pitching hard for Hawaii’s three electtoal votes. ... Aiready, N ixon is the first presidential nominee to campaign Hawaii in all of its proud history. He set out today on a schedule that would make him the first nationally elected official to visit more than two of Hawaii’s five major islands. Will Island Hop Although some 70 per cent of the people and votes are on the island of Oahu, Nixon scheduled island hopping visits and handshaking tours of such lesser known islands as Kauai and Maui as well as the “big island” of Hawaii, which whs the area here hardest hit by tidal waves following Chile’s earthquake. His schedule today spanned some 300 miles. The vice president arrived Wednesday to the thunderous roars of the islanders. He and his wife had rested only briefly after a tough 21-hour schedule Tuesday, but appeared fresh as they stepped from their DC-7 airliner and were greeted by some 3,000 well-wishers at the airport. At Nixon’s elbow was Sen. Hiram L. Fong (R-Hawaii) and Secretary of the Interior Fred A. Seaton, both of whom accompanied him from Washington. Fifth Island Trip It was Nixon’s first visit to the 50th state since it won admission to the nation, but it was his fifth trip to the islands. Nixon told reporters that “the President of the United States must always put the security of America first and obtain intelligence information that will protect us against surprise attack” such as Japan’s onslaught against Hawaii which launched America into World War H. Fn the evening, the vice president appeared on an hour-long statewide television show where he charged that his Democratic opponent for the presidency has paid the. .prifift,j>f allowing the nation’s union leaders to dictate his labor platform in order to get their support. He answered questions put to him by Hawaii's newspaper editors. Nixon said it was his contention that “the President of the United States cannot owe his election to any one group or be under the influence of any one segment of the people of the United States.” The vice president was scheduled to wind up his Hawaiian campaigning with a major speech tonight in Honolulu and will leave Friday morning aboard a chartered flight for Seattle, Wash.

Shortage Os Food In East Germany

BERLIN (UPD — A cartoon in the East German newspaper Berliner Zeitung showed zoo visitors crowded around a glass ©age in which a hen had just laid an egg. Elephants, giraffes and hippopotamuses in nearby cages went unnoticed. The joke was that hens and eggs are about as rare in Communist East Germany as are animals usually found in a zoo. But it’s no laughing matter to East German housewives who have to stand in line for hours to get the bare necessities of life. - While there appear. to be no actual hunger, the Soviet zone of Germany has been hit by its worst food shortage since the workers anti-Communist revolt of 1953. Stories in the Communist press and statments by Communist officials disclose that everything is scarce — meat, bread, potatoes, flour, milk, eggs, fruit and vegetables. There never has been a great variety of meat in East Germany. Housewives always have lined up for fruit. But in the past East Germans could at least fill up on bread and potatoes. Now even those dietary mainstays must be sought after, and meat and fruits are scarcer than ever. To the consternation of the Communists the shortages have made a mockery of their boast that they will begin to out-produce prosperous West Germany by the end of next year. There appears to be two main troubles—a virtual, strike by many farmers and a breakdown in the distribution system. The Communists admit the second cause. They do not admit the first. But a careful reading of the East German press discloses that farmers who were forced to give up their land to collectives are dragging their heels. For example, the Communist agricultural newspaper “Der Frei Bauer” said six collective farms near Cottbus each delivered less Decatur Man Caught After Prison Escape TERRE HAUTE, Ind.

than a dozen eggs in one month to the state. One county alone in the district of Schwerin was said to have withheld from delivery to the state 430 tons of pork, 275 tons of beef, 19 tons of chickens, 3,624 tons of milk and 104,000 eggs. West German officials say this is the price the Communists are paying for abolishing private farming last April.
