Install New Dipping Equipment Al Pit New dipping aquipmeot, which doubles the amount of gravel that can be taken out of the pit, is now being installed in the Yost gravel pit northwest of Decatur, Cal Yost, president of the Yoat Gravel-Readymix Co., Inc., said today. About 200 tons of gravel a day are now being taken from the pit, and 400 a day will be taken with the new equipment. A steel mast 90 feet tall will be constructed, and a two-inch cable will support the two-yard dragline bucket. The gravel pit was opened in 1922 by the Yost brothers, who operated it until 1926 for Jay Cline. Later they bought the pit, and began operations themselves in 1933. Yost is president of the company, his nephew, Sam Yost, is general manager, and bis son, Robert Yost, is secretary-treasur-er of the corporation. Before they built their present headquarters near the gravel pit on the River road, Yosts wert located in the old interurban car bam beside the Green Waters gravel pit.
Picket Statehouse To Protest Visit INDIANAPOLIS (UPD -Nearly 200 pickets paraded around the Statehouse at noon today protesting the visit of a delegation of industry-hunters from Tennessee. Most were members of United Packinghouse Workers Local 117. They carried placards reading “Industry Hunters Go Home,” “We Oppose Raids,” ‘‘There Is No Gain in Moving South,” “Tennessee Go Home; Mississippi and South Carolina Stay Home,” and “We Offer Hospitality — Not Our Jobs.” The Tennessee delegation, headed by Lt. Gov. William D. Baird, has been calling on Indiana industrialists who might be interested, in opening branch plants in theii ■ state. They said they were not trying to “pirate” Indiana industry. The pickets included ex-workers, of the Atkins Saw Division of the Borg-Warner Corp. The plant was moved from here to Mississippi last year. ' The pickets also demonstrated in front °f the Claypool Hotel where the Tennessee delegation is staying. Herman Walker, president of the Packinghouse Workers, said it was a protest “against anj’ delegations that, come here to lure away industry.”
Testifies Morgano Offered Big Bribe KENTLAND, Ind. <UPD- Porter County Deputy Sheriff Harold Rayder testified today in the trial of Tommy Morgano that Morgano offered him SIOO,OOO for a free hand to run a gambling and prostitution racket in the county in 1959. Testimony was based largely on recorded conversations between the two men in connection with the alleged bribe. Rayder used a tiny wire recorder concealed under his shirt. Special Judge W. Douglas Elwood overruled a defense motion that the testimony covering the conversations be stricken from the record on grounds it forced Morgano to testify against himself. The judge is expected to rule shortly on another defense motion advanced Thursday that copies of the recording be furnished by the prosecution. Attorneys were also locked in a legal battle over use of the contents of a wire recording made on May 4. 1959, which is the basis of the bribery charge. The recording was played before the Senate Rackets committee that summer. This is Morgano’s second trial. The first one last year ended in a hung jury. r

Khrushchev Cites Coexistence Need
MOSCOW (UPD — Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev said today he wants to get along with the Kennedy administration despite differences of view on social and political questions. Stressing the need for peaceful coexistence in a world living in the shadow of nuclear weapons, the Communist leader said: “Taking a realistic view, we have to live on the same planet, and we have to find solutions. We are ready to build up our relations with any country to safeguard peace throughout the world.” Though western observers considered Khrushchev’s speech one of the mildest he has made on US. - Soviet relations since the abortive Cuban invasion, he made the point that the Soviets are confident they “will win” any contest. Referring to his desire to get along with the United States, he said: !•. ‘ • “Although President Kennedy and I are men poles apart, we live on the same earth. Therefore, although we probably have a different understanding and a different assessment of the Socialist system and the capitalist system, we have to visualize realistically, so to speak, that there are now Socialist countries on our planet, which number over a milliard tone billion* inhabitants. “We have to (visualize realistically » that there are capitalist countries, with a highly developed monopolist capital, and that there are countries which have jusUUbcrated themselves from colonial slavery. “And of course we understand differently, apparently, these three categories of people, and have a different notion of freedom.” Khrushchev made his 85-minute speech to a crowd of 10.000 at Tiflis on the occasion of the 40th anniversary of the Soviet regime in .’tiub Georgian Republic. His speech was made available here. The speech was regarded by Western observers as remarkable for what was left unsaid. Khrushchev ignored the scheduled opening of the peace conference on Laos in Geneva today, and made no mention of the NATO meeting in Oslo which reaffirmed allied determination to stay in Berlin and to combat Communist encroachment everywhere. Nor did he refer to .U.S. involvement in the invasion of Cuba.

Pair Arrested As Burglary Suspects BLOOMINGTON. Ind. (UPD— The suspicions of a laundromat operator who found two men using slugs on coin-changers led police Thursday to the arrest of both fas in a three-county burglary ring. In custody at Monroe County i Jail on charges of operating a vending machine with suspicious coins were Harold E. Hess, 34. Bedford, and his brother, Lowell, 36, Martinsville. Other charges are pending, state police said. In the homes of both, police said they found burglar tools and large quantities of merchandise believed to have been taken in break-ins in Johnson, Morgan and Bartholomew Counties. A small truck equipped with an FM radio tuned to the police broadcast frequency was found at Lowell Hess’s home. On the back of the truck was a fake tool chest containing a wrench believed used in safe jobs. Also at Lowell’s house was found a punch press used to make copper-colored slugs the size of half-dollars, police said. Police were alerted Thursday by Robert Stillions, owner of a Bloomington laundromat, who said he found the two men in his place using the slugs in a coin-changing machine. They fled when they saw Stillions but he got a description of them and the license number of their car. State troopers picked the two up several hours later. Police said $196 in quarters and dimes were found on the men. along with a list of laundromats in the Bloomington and Columbus area. Reports of slugs found in the coin-changers had been widespread over the area for a period of several months, police said.
warning to county residents In reference to a band of people, normally called gypsies, that could possibly start working in the tyArnold explained that approximately 20 units of the people went the majority of them going west through the county this morning, on U. S. 224. He said that usually these people park their vehicles somewhere and work in the surrounding area. The deputy sheriff warned that local residents should do business only with legitimate business houses or ’'established workers, as these “wanderers” will try to secure odd jobs.
Fund Campaign For Valpo Law School VALPARAISO, Ind. — A campaign to raise $550,000 for construction of a law school building at Valparaiso University here —the nation's only Lutheran law school—will be conducted throughaut the Lutheran church-Missouri synod. Major effort in the campaign will come on June 18, Father s Day. The $550,000 will provide a new building for classrooms, a law library for the present 35,000 volumes, a practice courtroom, and faculty offices. The Missouri synod’s board of directors has approved the drive, which also has been endorsed by the synod’s college of presidents and the Lutheran laymen’s league board of directors. Although commending ?j the law school on its faculty and library, the American bar association has termed its physical facilities “inadequate.” The law school presently occupies 5,300 feet in a 50-year-old building. With a projected enrollment of 160 students in the next few years, the school will need 25,000 square feet of space. Founded in J 879 as the Northern Indiana law school, the school" became part of Valparaiso University in 1905. In 1929 the school was approved by the American bar association and since , that time has met the requirements established by the association’s Council on legal education and admission to the bar. The school was admitted to the association of American law schools in 1930. The Board of regents of the University of the State of- New York has. approved the bachelor df laws degree which—is granted by the Valparaiso school. Valparaiso University itself is a member of the. north central association of colleges and secondary schools. Three prominent Missouri synod laymen are heading the campaign. Dr. E. J. Gallmeyer.
