The present situation in Laos is indicative of the extreme complications under which the State Depart* ment has to labor. It also shows how a policy, once taken, commits this nation, even though it may desire something different at a later date. Laos, which is a small, elongated nation running from northwest to southeast and laying between Red China and North Vietnam on the northeast and Thailand on the southwest, for a while had a threeway civil war going. On the right was the prowestern group, then there was the recognized government of the country, and to the left the communist faction known as the Pathet Lao. The government of the United States officially recognized the existing government, which was trying to affect a compromise by bringing some of the Pathet Lao into active participation in the government. When the pro-western forces decided to lean on the government which was moving more and more to the left, the government forces and the Pathet Lao merged into one extremely pink group. Now, the United States was in the ridiculous position of officially recognizing one government, and at the same time, practically all of our $50 million was going to the right faction, who were considered from a distracted point of view, actually rebels. The whole affair is a grossly confused mess. In the earlier fighting for the city of Vientiane, American aid was used to kill men fighting for a government recognized by the United States. Regardless of how this country feels about it, there is little doubt as to how the families of the dead men feel. This is not intended as a particular criticism of our policies in Laos. The government undoubtedly did what it thought was right, and those were the things to do. It is intended as a criticism of foreign policies in general, ours and everyone elses right now. When any of us want to make a friend, we do not go out and impress upon that person how they should feel about us because of the things we have done for them. We usually do what we can for them because we like them, and as a result, they return the comradeship, and if possible, the favors. Why can’t nations do the same?

Right To Work Bill Repeal Is Doubtful
INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)--Delay in the introduction at the “right to work” repeal bill in the General Assembly was discussed at length today. All legislative observers had expected that the repealer would be presented on the first day of the session Thursday, but it was not forthcoming in either house. However, Sen. S. Hugh Dillin, Petersburg, Senate President Pro Tem and Democratic floor leader, predicted that tlie measure would appear in the upper house “within the next few days.” There are some indications that Dillin is counting nose in the Senate concerning this controversial measure because the Democrats have only limited control of the upper house, to the tune of 26 Democrats and 24 Republicans. One of these Democratic senators, James W. Spurgeon, Brownstown, has favored the “right to work” statute in past sessions. On the other hand, a GOP senator, Ruel W. Steele, Bedford, has voted against the labor measure, and another Republican enator, Roy Conrad, Monticello, has voted on both sides of the issue. Through his manipulations, the repealer failed in the 1959 session. Regardless of Senate action, the repealer has little chance to be enacted because the conservative Republicans are ruling the House of Representatives almost two to one over the Democrats. Threaten Agency Shop On the first day of the session, Sen. John C. Ruckelshaus, Indianapolis, a conservative Republican, showed the writer a copy of his bill to repeal the agency shop, which iwas legalized in a decision of the State Appellate Court, and announced he would introduce it on the day the Democrats brought forward their repealer. Under the agency shop, if management makes a closed-shop contract with the union, all employes would be forced to pay union dues. The Ruckelshaus measure

would relieve the workers of paying due to the union, if they choose not to do so. A number of GOP leaders, including Steele and Vernon Anderson, Hammond, who headed the Indiana campaign of Richard M. Nixon and who formerly served as secretary to Gov. Harold W. Handley, believe that the "right to work" law, championed sturdily by Lt. Gov. Crawford F. Parker, was the major factor in his defeat for governor by Matthew E. Welsh, Democrat. There are some indications that the legislative session will end in a stalemate on the two bills which have caused so much furore for a long time. Labor Benefits Seen However, both Sen. C. Wendell Martin, GOP floor leader, and Dillin appear to be in accord to granting increases in allowances for workmen’s compensation and unemployment 'benefits to conform to the higher cost of living. The future dispute probably will concern the amount of these gains for employes. Another important issue--legis-lative reapportionment--came to the fore on the natal day of the session in the form of a resolution for a constitutional amendment for reapportionment under the federal system. It was sponored by Sen. Willi K. Batchelet, R-Angola, a farm bloc leader who has worked to delay reapportionment in the past. The House would be reapportioned on a population basis and the Senate geographically under Batchelet’s proposal, which would not take effect for any years because of the constitutional block.

Mammoth Bomber Is Rolled Out Thursday WASHINGTON (UPI)--Out of a hanger of the Boeing Airplane Co. in Wichita, Kan., rolled a mammoth bomber--bringing one step closer the most mobile weapon punch ever devised. The bomber is the B52H, an improved version of the B52 which has much more powerful engines and can fly considerably more than 10,000 miles without refueling. It carried under its wings Skybolt ballistic missiles which can be launched 1,000 miles from targets. This would allow the planes to deliver their pay roads far out of reach of heavy enemy anti-air-craft defenses. The Air Force said each B52H will carry four of the solid-fueled fast-firing Skybolt missiles in addition to a hydrogen bomb load in its bomb bay.
A B52H equipped with test models of the Skybolt missile was rolled out of a Boeing hangar Thursday in preparation for “compatability tests.” The Air Force said that powered and guided launches would be

made “during the next few years” over the Atlantic missile range. The potent weapon was expected to become part of the nation’s arsenal in 1964. Terre Haute Bank Shortage Probed INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)--Federal authorities cautiously confirmed today that they are investigating reports of a huge shortage of funds at the First National Bank of Terre Haute. “We have been in consultation with the FBI and the case is under investigation,” said Don A. Tabbert, U.S. district attorney here.” The FBI confirmed it is investigating the case. Asked if an estimate of a million dollars for the alleged shortage were true, Tabbert said “I didn't think it was going to be a million.” Tabbert said he has not talked with FBI agents since they entered the case. The alleged shortage was said to involve installment loans on used cars. No arrests have been made, the FBI said.
