Politics As Usual Governor Matt Welsh may be in a tight spot after the latest session of the general assembly. The governor has made several recommendations to the state legislature regarding exepnditures above Governor Handley’s proposed budget. These are expenditures that former Governor Handles' also felt were much - needed in our state. So far, the legislature has gone along with the recommended appropriations. So far, they have failed to act on the governor’s accompanying proposals for means of raising the money to fulfill these appropriations. As of now, Governor Welsh has two choices—either do not do those things he proposed to the legislature, and which they approved (without the money to do them); or go ahead and do them by using money from the state surplus (deficit spending). Either way, it will be political dynamite, and the people of Indiana will be the losers. It is possible that those actions approved by the legislature will be ignored because of lack of money. In that case, it would be good political ammunition to use in the political races in 1962. It is also possible that in 1963, the general assembly will hear the same suggestions, and pass them. Then, in 1964, the tax raise would be much fresher to use against Welsh’s Democratic would-be successor. It is also still possible for the rev-enue-raising part of the governor’s suggestions to pass the legislature. We sincerely hope that the latter is the case. It would make the Republicans in the state House of Representatives look like much bigger men both in ’62 and ’64 to have cooperated with Governor W elsh than to fight against him now. No one doubts that the Republicans will go all out to win in 1964, as will the Democrats—that is our system, and it has proved to be a good one. And no one doubts that politics have been played in the past by both sides. But each year we hope that people are getting a little bigger, a little more interested in the real good that can be done. *■ s If -the legislature did not think the suggestions were good, there would be no point in passing them. In the same line of thought, if they were good enough to approve, they should be good enough to finance by some other means than deficit spending. Some people think that split control in politics is a safeguard. It is—against action. When a pendulum swings to either side, at least it is swinging. When it is counter-balanced and stands still, then time stands still and nothing is done.

Nephew Os Decatur Lady Aboard Donner S. N, Allyn F. Wiechart S. N Allyn F. Wiechart, son of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis F. Wiechart of Delphos, 0., and a nephew of Mrs. Byrl Hunt of Homestead 28. was aboard the U.S.S. Donner at the time it picked up the chimpanzee named Ham from the sea recently, after the chimp had become the largest animal ever sent aloft. Allyn, a 1960 graduate of Delphos St. John’s high school, has been assigned to the Donner since last July. Mrs. Hunt reported that the lad spent the summer in Decatur with her family and met many Decatur young people. She said he spent much of his time with the Kleinknight twins, Rudy and Ron, who are members of the Decatur high school basketball team, and met many- local youths while spending some time at the Youth and Community Center here. Ham, the chimp, survived the 5,000 mile-an-hour rocket ride down the Atlantic missile range which went half right and half wrong. The Mercury “life support" spacecraft in which he rode and its escape system worked fine throughout most of the chimp’s trail-blazing trip. The monkey’s space flight, which is considered to be preliminary to sending an astronaut into space, carried several main significances and thus made S. N. Allyn Wiechart a participant in a history making achievement in man’s efforts to conquer space.

Work Without Pay To Aid Company

PITTSBURGH (UPD — Workers at the Oswald & Hess Packing Co. will work without pay for five weeks this year in an effort to keep the little pigs going to market and the wolves away from the door. When Oswald & Hess was hailed into court by its creditors, its 400 employes, members of five unions, decided to act. At a meeting called by themselves, the workers voted Monday to work without compensation five weeks this year to give the company an additional $200,000 in operating capital. "This is a joint effort for survival,” said Carl Peiper, president of the meat packing firm. As each worker entered the meeting Monday, he was handed a card which read, in part: ", ..1 voluntarily propose to agree to donate to the Oswald & Hess company my services for a total of five weeks without pay...” The signers agreed to give up one week’s pay immediately and another every three months in hopes the 42-year-old packing house can continue operating. The agreement was approved by locals of the Amalgamated Meat Cutters and Butcher Workmen, the Meat Sidesmen’s Union, the Machinists Union, the Stationary Engineers Union, and the Teamsters, all of which represent O&H “We took this action because we want the firm to stay in business and we have an obligation to keep our membership in jobs to support their families,” said Walter Lieke. president of the Meat Cutters local.
