Closer Than We Think Along with the fact that President Kennedy is the youngest man ever elected to the presidency, the first president born in the 20th Century, the first president with both parents still living, and various other firsts, he is probably the closest president to Adams county . and Decatur in the history of presidents. That fact is certainly not true by birth or home, but several seemingly unrelated incidents have made John F. Kennedy a little closer to Decatur than past chief executives. •O The biggest personal touch that president Kennedy had with Decatur was his visit here on April 13th, 1959. At that time, while Kennedy had been frequently mentioned as a presidential possibility I after his strong showing in the vice - presidential nomination race against Estes Kefauver, it is doubtful if many Decaturites realized the next president of the United States had ridden down to Decatur in Dr. Barry Hebble’s car. Later, another Decaturite, Judge G. Remy Bierly, had the opportunity to attend the Democratic national convention last summer, and help to nominate Kennedy. During the very vigorous campaign last fall, Dick Heller, Jr., publisher of the Decatur Democrat, had the opportunity to spend one day with Robert Kennedy in southern Indiana, and another day with the new president in central Indiana. President Kennedy’s visit here in 1959 marked the first time in the history of Decatur memories that a successful presidential candidate has visited Decatur. So, while John F. Kennedy is definitely not a Hoosier, nor a frequent visitor to Decatur, he is, nonetheless, a little closer to us than other presidents.

They Uve just east of Decatur on highway 224. across the highway from the Mies home. A year ago CaUand advised the directors of the national soybean processors association that he would like to retire as soon as they had a qualified man ready to take over the crop improvement work. Made Decatur Headquarters During the entire time that Calland has headed up the soybean crop improvement council, he has maintained his office in Decatur—renting office space, equipment, and a secretary from the Central Soya company. CaUand came to Decatur late in 1928 as field manager for the old Holland-St. Louis Sugar company. Later he was named vice president of its successor, the Central Sugar company. He also served as agronomist with the Central Soya company. With the inception of the national soybean crop improvement council in 1947, CaUand was selected as its first managing director. His work with the couneU has been to encourage and improve the production of better quaUty soybeans in aU of the soybean-growing “"states. Soybean Importance In the 12 years he has been engaged in this work, he has seen the soybean crop grow from 186 milUon bushels in 1947 to 559 million bushels in 1960. Soybeans are now the fourth most important crop in the United States, and in Adams county they are the most important cash crop, second only to com in total acreage. CaUand was bom at Summerfield, O. He is a graduate of the agricultural coUege of Ohio State university, and for several years was a staff member of the Ohio agricultural experiment station at Wooster, O. Before Coming Here Then for 8 years he managed some 10,000 acres of farm land for the Miami Conservancy District at Dayton, Ohio, coming from there to Decatur and the HoUand-St. Louis Sugar Company. CaUand holds memberships in several professional organizations including the American Society of Agronomists and the Soil Science Society of America. He formerly was a member of the Board of Trustees of Purdue University, and recently has been honored by the Purdue Agricultural Alumni Association for outstanding service to agriculture. For his work with Soybeans he has been made an honorary life member of the American Soybean Association, and was recently made a Kentucky Colonel.

At Urbana he wiU have direct contact with the faculty of Illinois University and with the staff of the U. S. Regional Soybean Laboratory which also is located at Urbana. Legislative Plans Os Indiana Jaycees The political affairs committee of the Indiana Junior Chamber of Commerce has adopted an expanded legislative program for the 1961 session of the Indiana general assembly. Home rule and penal reform legislation headed the list of measures to be supported by the Junior Chamber. Also, the Chamber will support legislation" to Uluminate the state house in Indianapolis and the ratification of the federal legislation granting voting rights to the residents of the District of Columbia. The state Junior Chamber is cooperating with the Indiana municipal league in the support of a resolution proposing an amendment to the Indiana constitution to provide for home rule by Indiana cities and towns. This amendment, if adopted, would give cities and towns the right to govern themselves on all matters of purely local concern. Under present laws, municipal governments have only the powers given to them by the state legislature. Concerning the penal reform hill, the Indiana Jaycees are in favor of: A. Commissioner of corrections . . This would mean there would be a single professionally trained executive at its head rather than the three under the present system: B. Advisory board ..This board would be composed of lay members appointed by the governor. The board would select the commissioner and would then act in an advisory capacity. C. Full-time parole board . . This board would function for the entire state as a full time body. Education Professor At Notre Dame Dies SOUTH BEND, Ind. 'UPI) — Rev. William F. Cunningham, 75, professor of education at the University of Notre Dame and former vice president of the National Catholic Education Association, died here Thursday. Except for five years. Father Cunningham taught continuously at Notre Dame since 1919. He was a native of Baraboo, Wis.

Mixed Feeling By First Lady Over New Role WASHINGTON (UPI)-mJacque-line Kennedy today becomes the nation’s first lady with mixed feelings about her new role. Her youth (she is 31), her shyness and natural reserve, her interest in the arts rather than politics, have combined to make her wary of the White House. But in the past few months she has been taking a new look at the job and preparing herself to meet the tasks that lie ahead. Admires Mrs. Roosevelt She succeeds Mrs. Mamie Eisenhower, 64, who concentrated on making the White House charming and her public appearances strictly social. Mrs. Eisenhower, a sentimentalist, is always sorry to leave any home where she has been happy—and that includes the White House. Tall, elegant Mrs. Kennedy has been boning up on the White House and first ladies, including one she perhaps admires most, Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt. But Mrs. Kennedy plans to set her own pace. First, she desires to make the presidency, which her husband John F. Kennedy has called the "loneliest” job, not so lonely for him and her family. She often has said that her life revolves around her husband’s. At Husband's Side Jacqueline Kennedy, still recuperating from the Caesarean birth of her son John Jr. Nov. 25, selected warm clothing for the in- ! augural ceremony at the snowswept Capitol. She planned to remain by the new President’s side through the big day, attending a post-inaugur-ation luncheon for the VlP’s, watching the colorful inaugural parade and visiting the evening social festivities. She picked a stunning white gown, which she designed herself, for an elegant dinner party and the five inaugural balls. Zero Temperatures * Forecast In State United Press International Snow showers fell on most of Indiana today amid predictions that temperatures may drop to zero all around the state tonight. It was the second day of what forecasters indicated would be at least a four-day pattern of snow, with no appreciably accumulation except around Lake Michigan, where locally heavy snow was seen as possible. The latest forecasts called for highs today ranging from 13 to 25, lows tonight from zero to 6 above in .the north and central portions and zero to 12 above in the south, and highs Saturday from 13 to 20. More zero to 10 above readings were expected Saturday night. By dawn today, South Bend, Cincinnati, Lafayette, and Fort Wayne had two inches of snow on the ground, Indianapolis had an inch, and Evansville and Louisville had a trace. Snow and slush were blamed in connection with four traffic fatalities Thursday, including two persons in a crash of two cars near Peru, a man in a one-car accident at Fort Wayne, and a pedestrian in Indianapolis. Many accidents were not fatal. Near Lafayette, a Trailways bus with seven passengers aboard skidded off icy U.S. 52, but nobody was hurt. Meanwhile, the temperature fell to normal winter levels, and the five-day outlook for the period running into the middle of next week indicated it will average 8 to 12 degrees below normal in the north and more than 10 degrees below normal central and south. Readings this morning included 5 above at Chicago, 7 at Lafayette, 9 at Goshen, 11 at Fort Wayne, 14 at Indianapolis, 15 at South Bend and Tzrre Haute, 19 at Evansville and 20 at Louisville. Highs Thursday ranged from 27 at Fort Wayne to 41 at Evansville. Highs today will range from 15 to the 20s, lows tonight from 6 to 16, and highs Saturday from 20 to 30. The five-day outlook indicated little change from current temperatures during the period except in central and south portions

i Nearly All Os New York Rail Traffic Halted NEW YORK <UPI> — Less than . 700 striking tugboatmen today all but severed rail traffic to and ! from New York City and disrupt- ! ed railroads serving hundreds of . thousands of persons in the North- , east in a dispute over the jobs of l 62 men. ; After a post-midnight negotiati ing session failed to solve the 11- ; day strike early today. Gov. Nelt son A. Rockefeller said, “I. under-. • stand they are moving (pickets) into Philadelphia and Baltimore. This thing has tremendously serious implications.” Abandons Inauguration Plans Rockefeller abandoned plans to attend John F. Kennedy’s inauguration in Washington and planned to meet again today with federal mediators and representatives of the tugboat men and the 11 railroads involved. The meeting was scheduled for 9:30 a m. EST. ’ The crucial issue remained the > Hudson River tug and ferry crewmen’s demand for job security ; and the railroads’ desire to cut t some crews from five men to , three. i “When you get down to it,” Rockefeller said, "we’re stil talk-' i ing about 62 people.” Picket Lines Spread The strikers sent pickets far up into New York state and Massa- ‘ chusetts in their latest foray and ? forced the New York Central 5 Railroad to halt all service be- • tween Buffalo, N.Y., and Boston - early today. The Central also set 5 Erie, Pa., as the end of the line on freight runs that normally run • through Buffalo. t The shutdowns severely disrupti ed food shipments into the nai tion’s largest city, but truck serv-. ■ ice to haul cargoes normally tugged across the Hudson api peared assured Thursday. State ■ Supreme Court Justice Samuel H. ■ Hofstadter ordered the Teamsters ' Union to rescind a telegram rect ommending that members refuse 1 to cross picket lines. i Oath Os Office > Taken By Every U.S. President . WASHINGTON i UPI) — Here is I the oath of office taken by every t president of the United States at 1 his inauguration as specified by ; Article II of the Constitution: i "I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the office of 1 president of the United States, and ' will to the best of my ability, pre- ■ serve, protect and defend the Conj stitution of the United States.” The first president, George ; Washington, added the words, "so help me God," and every subse- '■ quent chief executive has followed , his precedent. — I a , — I where slight moderation was' ex- . pected about Saturday. The low of 14 this morning at i Indianapolis matched the lowest temperature recorded there thus far in 1961.

Good Will Gesture By Castro To JFK HAVANA. Cuba (UPlL_—Premier Fidel Castro has suspended I mass military trials of ‘terrorists’ | in an apparent good will gesture to incoming President John F. Kennedy. The decision was disclosed today to United Press International after 2 more "terrorists” werej executed before firing squads this j morning, 10 others were sentenc-! ed to 30 years each in prison and 3 to nine years. It was reported authoritatively; that Castro himself ordered the trial suspension, presumably to: coincide with a ‘pacification plan’ he was expected to outline at a rally tonight as an overture to Kennedy. Cuban militiamen began stripping anti-aircraft guns today, ending a national alert against the U. S. ‘invasion’ the Castro regime predicted would come before President Eisenhower left office today, i
