'! ger led the crowd in the pledge of allegiance, and Miss Carolyn Moore directed group singing of "God Bless America.” The Rev. John Mishler gave the prayer for guidance. Ervin Fuelling, chairman of the sponsoring group, the Adams county Farm Bureau, welcomed the crowd, and also told what the program would be. He then introduced Byron Bunker, principal of the Hartford Center high school, who did a very fine job as moderator of the program. Bunker first introduced E. Ross Adair, congressman from the i fourth district, and up for reelection. Adair gave the points of ' his party’s platform that he felt I would be most interesting to the crowd and pertinent to the meeting. They included: increase the acreage reserve to reduce the ' surpluses of the future, and to ati tempt to remove the present surj pluses. Adair’s opponent in the coming elections, Byron McCammon, was I then introduced. McCammon stated that the Democratic party also wanted to reduce both present and future surpluses, loosen j the tight money policy so it would be easier for the farmer to borrow, and dispel the fear of war. Johnson Speaks Burl Johnson, Democratic incumbent joint representative from Adams and Wells counties, led off for the state candidates. Johnson stated that it appeared that some people were becoming complacent ; about politics, and that it was a dangerous thing. He also stated that he had fulfilled his pledge on entering the legislature that he would vote for the people of Adams county, and not particularly for a

Kennedy Assails Personal Attacks

DENVER, Colo. (UPI) — Sen. John F. Kennedy today cracked back at Vice President Richard M. Nixon for what the Democratic presidential candidate regarded as "personal attacks” on his campaign discussions of the need for rebuilding the economy and defenses of America. ■< Kennedy, in remarks prepared for delivery to a political rally in Denver, said it was a mistake to "equate criticism of Republican leadership with criticism of our country.” What prompted Kennedy’s direct blast at Nixon was the vice president’s campaign statement this week that his Democratic opponent was “naive” in his approach to international affairs and might be contributing to worsening international affairs and might be contributing to worsening international relations by discussing American weaknesses while Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev is in the country. “There are those who say it is wrong to call attention to America’s need for greater strength at a time when our freedom is being challenged by a ruthless foe,” Kennedy said. “But it is precisely because we are in danger that we have an obligation to point out our needs, so that we can work to meet them. “It is not dangerous to reveal our shortcomings — Mr. Khrushchev knows full well where we

party. Johnson concluded by saying that he was for permissive, not punitive legislation. Floyd Acker, Johnson’s opponent, was the final candidate to speak. Acker pledged to have the interests of the Adams-Wells voters foremost, and would be grateful if given the opportunity to serve in the state legislature. He also stated that the upcoming legislature might well be one of the most important that has ever been assembled. Joan Doan, Republican county chairman, was then called upon to introduce the county candidates. They included: Waldo Stauffer, auditor; Norval Fuhrman, treasurer; Mrs. LaVelle Death, recorder; Karl Johnson, surveyor; Stanley Arnold, commissioner second district; and Carl Flueckiger, commissioner third district. Dr. Harry Hebble, Democratic county chairman, then introduced the candidates for county office from his party: Myles Parrish, judge of the circuit court; Ed Jaberg, auditor; William Linn, treasurer: Miss Rosemary Spangler, recorder; Elmer Winteregg, Jr., coroner; Herman Moellering, surveyor; Bernard J. Clark, commissioner second district, and Delmas Bollenbacher, commissioner third district. Jaberg was not present, due to a death in the family. Need Tax Relief Bunker then relayed the questions from the audience to the respective candidates. Both candidates were asked if they believed property owners needed tax relief, and both answered in the affirmative. Adair was asked if he thought the Cuban situation had been dealt, with in the right manner. Adair answered that while the results were not what any one would like, he thought that the handling was done in the proper manner. Johnson was queried as to what has been and will be done about the state mental institutions. He replied that the budget committee had granted additional funds to the departments handling these institutions, and that further steps would be taken to assure our state of the best possible mental aid to its citizens. • Acker was then asked If the right to work repeal came up, how he would vote, and why. He replied that he agreed with Governor Handley and Lt. Governor Parker that there were other considerations of more importance to

are weak and we are strong. But it is dangerous to hide those shortcomings from the American people, to say that all is well when all is in peril, to preach complacency and relaxation when we should be calling for increased strength.” Kennedy flew to Denver from Billings, Mont., Thursday night when bad flying weather prevented his going to Cheyenne, Wyo., for an overnight stop. Weather permitting, Cheyenne was on the candidate's schedule again today, plus two speeches in Denver, two speeches in Salt Lake City and an overnight flight to Chicago where he was scheduled to arrive Saturday morning. In Billings Kennedy told an audience of 3,000 people that it was no accident “that the Communists have made their greatest gains from Laos to Cuba to Africa during a period when our relative strength was in decline, when one out of every 16 Americans is unemployed, when one out of 20 who is employed is forced to work part time, when great industries like steel are operating at barely half capacity. “Mr. Khrushchev confronts us at the Uhited Nations with arrogant confidence for he feels that the Soviet economy is growing more than twice as fast as ours,” the Massachusetts senator told his Montana audience.

be brought before the general assembly, but that if it came up, he would vote against its repeal unless considerable information that he does not now have was brought to his attention. While other questions were asked, the final one was directed to representative Adair. He was asked if it was possible, with a Democratic congress and a Republican administration, for any constructive farm legislation to be passed. Adair stated that while it had not been done in the last session, he thought it was possible. Miss Moore again led the crowd in the singing of "America,” and Rev. Mishler pronounced the closing prayer. After the formal meeting, refreshments Vvere served to all present, and opportunity was afforded those who desired to ask further questions, or just chat, with the candidates.

Russian Subs Sighted Off Eastern Coast WASHINGTON (UPD—At least one and probably two Russian submarines are operating with a Soviet tanker and tug for unexplained purposes about 400 miles off the Newfoundland coast. The Navy announced late Thursday that one sub was sighted about midnight Tuesday and another at 5:30 a.m. e.d.t. Wednesday. The statement said these sightings from Navy planes “occurred some distance apart and lead to the conclusion that there probably are two submarines.” The disclosure followed an announcement last week that Russia had deployed missile - monitoring ships in both the Atlantic and the Pacific, in a move that could herald a spectacular space attempt during Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev’s visit to the United Nations. Navy sources said it was “conceivable but not likely" that the submarines would be used for missile-monitoring. Since the Soviet tanker in the Atlantic also has a helicopter and a weather-type balloon, the Navy sources speculated that its mission could be “electronic intelligence, or weather or scientific research.” If an attempt is made to gain electronic intelligence, these sources said, the baloon might be used to raise an antenna. In both sightings, the Navy said, the Russian submarines submerged when the U.S. planes approached. The Russian tanker is the “Kokand” and the tug is the “Kapitan V. Fedotov.” The Soviet ships are due east of Cape Race, Newfoundland. Rochester To Switch Time Next Sunday ROCHESTER, Ind. (UPD —The Rochester City Council decided Thursday the city would switch to Central Standard Time this Sunday instead of waiting until Oct. 30. Last year, the city changed time in late October in line with other Northwestern Indiana counties in the Chicago fringe area. Plans had been made to do the same tills year, but councilmen called by Mayor Ray Myers to a special meeting decided unanimously to conform to Indiana law and switch clocks Sept. 25.

Nikita Refuses To See Powers' Father NEW YORK (UPD — Oliver Powers, father of impriisoned U 2 pilot Francis Gary Powers, tried to intercede with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev today for his son’s release but was turned away from the door by a Khrushchev bodyguard. Khrushchev himself was already at the United Nations when the elder Powers tried to gain entry just after 11:30 a.m. to the premier’s headquarters in the Soviet U.N. mission on Park Avenue. /New York police admitted him ■to the barricaded sidewalk. But at the door a Russian plainclothesman barred the way— as the Russians have bolcked admittance to a number of Soviet emigres seeking permission for loved ones to leave Russia. Tears came to Powers’ eyes as he stood, alone and heartbroken, on the sidewalk. He rubbed his eyes and walked slowly away. Then he said he would stand by until Sunday “hoping to have a meeting” with Khrushchev. “He appears to be a kind man and when two fathers meet and discuss the fate of a son, things can change,” he said. He stopped at a mailbox a block away and dropped in a letter addressed to Khrushchev, asking for a meeting. The elder Powers pressed his luck to meet Khrushchev by showing up at the United Nations Where the Soviet premier was speaking. He was taken through the U.N. gate, barred at present to all casual visitors although he had no credentials. Six Men Escape As Floyd County Jail NEW ALBANY, Ind. (UPD—Six prisoners, three of them considered dangerous, broke out of the Floyd County Jail today, Sheriff Alex Watkins reported. Watkins quoted other prisoners! as saying th? break occurred “be-1 tween 2 and 3 in the morning.” i However, it was not discovered until the cellblock was opened at 7 a.m. The fugitives were identified as Ralph Hazen, 32; Herman Lee Wilson, 35; Paul T. Hardin, 20; I Irvin S. Cobb, 27, and Paul S. Tucker, all of New Albany, and Donald Noe, 17, Jeffersonville. Watkins said Hazen, Wilson and Noe, all held on auto theft and armed robbery charges, were considered dangerous. He said the prisoners broke a guard rail, -•pried open a skylight, ran across I the jail’s roof onto the roof of a garage, then scooted to the ground on a utility pole, Hardin was held for auto theft, Cobb for drunk driving and Tucker for petit larceny, Watkins ! said. Watkins said six other men in the cellblock, most of them in custody on minor charges, refused to join the break. Deputy Joe Freiberger discovered the escape when he reported for duty. It was the first break from the ancient jail, condemned by grand juries for many years, since May 18 when four prisoners tried to escape, Watkins said. Hours later, no clues to the fugitives’ whereabouts had been received, and the search spread from this area to Southern Illinois and Kentucky. “I think somebody was waiting fro them when they got out,” said Watkins. He added about 25 prisoners were in the jail at the time of the break. Watkins said he was the only officer in the jail, where he has his living quarters. He said there was no commotion and no noise. The jail will be moved to the $2.5 million city-county building when it is completed next year. Until then, said Watkins, most Floyd County prisoners are being transferred for safe-keeping to the Clark County Jail at Jeffersonville. Eacn evening over 4,50 f copies are printed of the Decatur Daily Democrat.
