Donations To Fund Reported Slackening Donations to the Harry Frauhiger fund have slacked off during the past week with the last donation being received last Saturday. The fund was started September 19 with a SIOO donation from the Decatur high school class of 1935 of which Mrs. Frauhiger was a member. The first five days brought in a total of $26 more, which brought the total to $126, however, no funds have been bi-ought in this week. Frauhiger injured his spine in a fall from a shed about a month ago. At first he was paralyzed from the waist down, but is regaining the use of his arms. Doctors say. though, that he will probably be on crutches or in a wheel chair the rest of his life. Ibis sort of situation would hurt an average family, but the Frauhigers have eleven children,

nine of) whom are still at home. The oldest boy, Bob, who graduated this past year, was very active in sports, winning two letters each in football, basketball and track. Fred is a Junior in school this year and is following in his brother’s footsteps in athletics. Many Reasons This is just one of the many reasons Mrs. Frauhiger’s classmates started the fund. It has definitely slacked off and they are hoping it will pick up again. It is a very worthy cause and if everyone in the city could just contribute a dollar. It would greatly help the family. Donations will be taken at the Daily Democrat office- by Bob Shraluka. Checks should be made out to the Harry Frauhiger fund. Firemen Called As Truck Catches Fire The fire department was called to Hanna-Nuttman park at 1:40 p.m. Tuesday when the rear of an I&M truck caught fire. The men were working in the park and the cause of the fire is undetermined. Most of the equipment in the back of the truck, such as wire, was ruined, but the truck was not damaged to a great extent.

Kennedy And Nixon Invade New York

By United Press International Both presidential candidates invaded New York today in quett of the big gold ring of the campaign merry-go-round — the Empire State’s 45 electoral votes. GOP candidate Richard M. Nixon wants those votes because no Republican has won the presidency in decades without carrying New York. Democratic nominee John F. Kennedy hopes to capture New York and other large northeastern states to offset any weakness in the South and Midwest. During their long day .of speechmaking and hand-shaking, Nixon and Kennedy will be close to the historic United Nations heads-of-government session which has dominated much of their campaign oratory. Nixon, laughing off suggestions that he was tired during his TV debate with Kennedy, arranged to answer questions at a morning interview with the Magazine Publishers Association. Tours Long Island He then planned to set out on a 12-hour, seven-speech motor tour through Long Island, accompanied by New York Gov. Nelson iA. Rockefeller and the state's two GOP senators, Kenneth B. Keating and Jacob K. Javits. Kennedy, confident that the television debate pumped new life ■into his campaign, began his day in Erie, Pa. Then came a 17-hour sweep through north central New York with' at least nine speeches

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

on tap. In appearances Tuesday in industrial Ohio and Pennsylvania, the Massachusetts senator hammered again and again at his contention that the U.S. economy is in a slump and needs Democratic leadership to revitalize it. But the stand-out feature of Kennedy’s foray was the enormous outpouring of people that swamped him everywhere he stopped. Ohio Gov. Michael V. DiSalle said that as a conservative estimate 600,000 to 700,000 saw the Democratic candidate during the day. ■ Refer To Debate Signs and shouts referring to the Monday night TV “Great Debate” convinced Kennedy and his aides that his showing on the program was responsible for the turnout. Nixon, plagued by a chill rain, campaigned Tuesday in Memphis, Tenn., West Memphis, Ark., and Charleston, W. Va. The weather did not dampen his hard and fiery attacks on his rival. In Memphis he accused Kennedy of not speaking out on civil rights in the South. Nixon said civil rights progress is needed to rob Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev of his charge that America is "enslaving” its people. In Charleston, the vice president said Kennedy was giving Russia propaganda ammunition with what he termed the “false statement” that 17 million Americans go to bed hungry each night. Nixon called on Kennedy to retract the statement “in the interest of this nation.”

U.E. Local Levels Charge At Industry On« of the community’s trade unions asserted today that “the American people have been saddled with soaring inflation and a run-away cost of living because of the multi-billion dollar frauds, payoffs and monopolistic practices of a handful of corporations.” Mlal 924 of the United Electrical, Radio & Machine Workers of America (UE) which bargains for workers at the Decatur General Electric plant, leveled the charge against the 500 top industrial companies which took in more than 70 per cent of the sl7 billion in industrial corporate profits reported to the United States treasury last year. The UE Local made the charge upon distributing throughout the community copies of its latest pamphlet called “The Inflation Racketeers.” Hie 35-page pamphlet is a study of what the union contends are “the real cause for inflation.” The UE Local stated that it represents organized labor’s point of view on a subjects which has been “distorted and propagandized by the big corporations against the average consumer who is also a wage earner.” Noting that “inflation has some very real and recognizable origins,” the UE denied that inflation was caused by “overstuffed workers’ pay envelopes or oversoft workers’ jobs.” “Inflation,” the independent union charged, “is the result of corporate squandering of the nation’s wealth in useless production, in graft, corruption, in burdening the economy with huge armies of corporate featherbedders who contribute nothing constructive but enjoy the highest incomes.” Inflation, said the UE, “is big business made for the benefit of big business.” Some of the “real” causes for the inflation that burdens the average taxpayer today, said the UE, can be traced to such items as these: A prominent engineer told the American Management Association in 1959 that “American businesses are weighted down with several billion dollars in bribes and payoffs. This tribute is estimated to total $5 billion a year.” The top executives of General Electric Co. voted themselves more than S3O million in salaries

and so-called “stock option” plans which multiplied to more than a quarter billion dollars profit by 1959. The UE cited a 1960 report by the U.S. Senate subcommittee on anti-trust and monopoly which termed stock option schemes as “built-in inflation.” The union termed the stock option scheme a “racket which costs the consumer billions of dollars in increased prices.” Princeton University research showed recently that there are 32 per cent more bosses in 50 top companies over the past decade which also showed a sharp reduction in production forces. Said the UE: “A good part of this increase is made up of high salaried whipsnappers, noisemakers and manipulators who are rocketed into space with only one effect on the nation’s economy—a rise in the cost of production. They along with the top bosses are the real fatherbedders.” U.S. Senator Russell Long, chairman of the U.S. Senate subcommittee for the small business committee this year revealed that the pentagon made deals with the top corporations which turns over to them patent rights on research financed by taxpayers. “These patent rights properly belong to the government,” said Senator Long. “Over a 20-year period it could well cost the American consumers over SIOO billion.” Such practices, charged the UE, cost the consumer “hundreds of billions of dollars each year in inflation.” “The only effective counter,” the union stated, “is labor’s fight for a higher living standard through higher earnings, shorter work weeks, more equitable taxes, reducing the danger of war and for the promotion of useful peacetime production.” O o 20 Years Ago Today o o Sept. 28, 1940 — British fighter planes repulsed intense German air raid. Mrs. Della Miller, of Convoy, 0., was dismissed from the Adams county memorial hospital where she had been confined since suffering injuries in an auto accident May 18.
