House Republicans Engaged In Strife
WASHINGTON (UPI) — House Republicans went into the new session today with one “new image'* leader in the saddle and the oldtimer he unseated warning of more political bloodshed to come. The House Republican Conference, a caucus of all GOP members, Tuesday ousted 67-year-old Rep. Charles B. Hoeven of lowa as its chairman. It gave the job to 49-year-old Rep. Gerald R. Ford of Michigan, a House member since 1949. The vote was 86-78. Two members voted present and 10 of the 176 House Republicans were absent. Hoeven’s downfall after six years as conference chairman and 20 years in the House came suddenly and for reasons subject to widely .differing explanation. Deny Revolt The relatively junior Republicans who engineered it said the change was made to put “a litNOTICK OF ADMINISTRATION Estate No. 5800 In the Adams Circuit Court of Adams County, Indiana, Notice is hereby given that Robert D.

tie bit more aggressive, dynamic leadership” in the GOP. They insisted it was an attempt to strengthen, rather than undercut, House GOP Leader Charles A. Halleck of Indiana and Whip Leslie Arends of Illinois. Hoeven said it was a lot more than that “I was picked as the lamb for the slaughter,” he told newsmen. "This should serve as notice to Mr. Arends and Mr. Halleck that something is brewing.” Ford denied that Halleck, who unseated former Speaker Joseph W. Martin of Massachusetts in a similar surprise revolt in 1959, was the next target. The same denials came from Reps. Charles E. Goodell, R-N.Y., and Robert P. Griffin, R-Mich., who spoke few the insurgents Discuss Arends Ouster Proposals to try to oust Arends were discussed at a closed meeting Monday of recently elected GOP congressmen. But only the decisions to try to beat Hoeven and to give Republicans with relatively short House service a louder voice in party affairs came out of that meeting. The insurgents headed by Goodell and Griffin won a complete 1 victory. Not only did they put over Ford, but they won larger i representation and votes for recently elected Republicans on the : important House GOP Policy i Committee. The policy committee considers Republican strategy on day-to-day legislative issues. While its ■ decisions are not binding, they obviously help set the party’s public image. Oldest Purdue Grad Is Taken By Death FOWLER, Ind. (UPI) — Mrs Maragaret Van Natta Snyder, 96, believed to be the oldest graduate of Purdue University, died Tuesday in a nursing home. Mrs. Snyder recalled that when she entered Purdue in 1882 there were only four buildings on the campus. She was the third of three sisters to be graduated from Purdue in successive years.

Rep. Jennings Is In Favor Os Medicare WASHINGTON (UPI) — Rep. W. Pat Jennings, D-Va., indicated today that—if given a chance —he would help push some modified version of President Kennedy’s medicare program through the House Ways & Means Committee. Jennings is one of three Democrats who are competing for two vacant Democratic seats oh the powerful committee. The new assignments—to be decided by House Democrats at a caucus later this month —could determine the fate of Kennedy’s medicare program in the 88th Congress. Medicare sponsors were unable to line up enough votes to squeeze even a skeletonized ver-sion-through the-eommittee in the last Congress. Kennedy aides believe it is almost essential that the two new committee Democrats be supporters of the controversial program if it is to be enacted by this Congress. “I generally favor some kind of medicare for the aged,” Jennings said in an interview. He said that if such a program is enacted, he would favor financing it through new Social Security taxes. , Although Jennings emphasized that he would not necessarily support other features of the Presidents proposal, his statement aligned him closer to Kennedy’s approach than the public position taken previously by the two other candidates for the committee posts. °* s CsL Rep. Ross whss, D-Tenn., has confined himself to saying that he feels there is an unfilled need in this area. However, Democratic liberals and labor union lobbyists are fairly confident he would line up with the administration on a showdown vote. The third candidate, Rep. PKil Landrum, D-Ga., has given no indication whether he would support or oppose new legislation in this field. For this reason, Democratic liberals and labor lobbyists have feared that Landrum, as ’ a member of the Ways & Means Committee, might join in blocking action on medicare.

Stale Traffic Toll Double Last Year By United Press International Indiana's 1963 traffic death toll climbed today to 22, twice the number of fatalities recorded by this date last year. A year ago today the toll was 11 and the year turned out to be the deadliest since 1953. The body of Mrs. Jean Hinchman, 45, Odon, was found near her wrecked car along Indiana 44 west of Rushville this morning and authorities said she apparently was killed by a hit-run vehicle. Mrs. Hinchman’s car was wrecked in a ditch 150 feet from the point where her body was discovered beside the highway. Police said indications pointed to the likelihood her car swerved out of; control and crashed into a ditch, then she left the vehicle and climbed to the road. Police believed she may have been struck by a vehicle while she tried to signal for help. Florence Hassee. 70, R.R. 2, Chandler, was killed Tuesday night when she walked into the path of a car on a Warrick County road near her home. The driver of the car, Ida Baugh, 51, Evansville, said she was unable to stdp in time to avoid hitting the alder woman. Earlier Tuesday, Harold James Barring, 41, R.R. 1, Canaan, was killed when his farm tractor skidded out of control down a hill on an icy Switzerland County road. Harring was crushed when the- tractor overtured on top of him. Two men died Tuesday in a Fort Wayne hospital from injuries suffered in the closing months of 1962 and last year’s traffic death toll climbed to at least 1,225 compared with 1,072 for 1961. ' Paul Carpenter, 18, died at Parkview Memorial Hospital. He was injured Nov. 18 in a two car . crash while drag racing, police ’ said. j James Prowse, 39, who also . died, was injured Dec. 30 when ; he apparently fell asleep at the ’ wheel of his auto. i , Railroad Testing > Shed Is Destroyed ■ INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Fire de--1 stroyed a testing shed at the New ■ York Central Railroad yards at ’ Beech Grove today. ’ Authorities said the roof of the ’ shed caved in and the fire spread ’ to an adjoining boiler shop where it was brought under control. No one was injured.
Senate Delays Bitter Battle On Filibuster WASHINGTON (UPI) — The ; Senate, citadel of compromise, arranged today to keep its opening session from being marred by a last-ditch fight over tightening ' the anti-filibuster rule. The long-heralded battle in which southern Democrats will be pitted against a bipartisan liberal bloc proposing the rule change was to be postponed until next week. Democratic and Republican leaders agreed to defer the renewed struggle over modernizing Rule 22 until after President Kennedy has delivered his State of the Union Message on Monday. But the forensic fur will start flying by Tuesday. Senate liberals want to amend the present rule so that after at least 15 days of debate a majority of the Senate—sl members—could impose cloture by limiting debate to one hour for each member. They would keep the present rule under which twothirds of the senators voting could end a filibuster within two days after filing of a cloture petition. Middle -of the roaders like Senate Democratic Leader Mike Mansfield and Sen. Clinton P. Anderson, D-N.M., favor loosening the two-thirds rule so that three-fifths of the Senate —60 senators instead of the 67 now required—could gag a filibuster. Senate experts pretty well agree that the majority rule proponents can not win. There is a fair chance a three-fifths amendment could pass. But to do it, a filibuster first must be broken under the present two-thirds rule. Sen. Richard B. Russell, DGa., commander of the southern bloc, promised to wage an ‘‘allout, last-ditch, end-of-the-road fight” against any change. But he said he would not oppose the leadership plan to postpone the start of the fight until Tuesday. Blast Os Cold Air Due For Midwest " By United Press International A Hast of cold air and fresh snow today was due to return winter to the Midwest which has been basking in almost summery weather most of the new year. A heavy rainfall in Hawaii turned to raging snow. Lower temperatures were forecast from the upper Great Lakes to Washington and Oregon. Light snow was predicted for much of the same area, along with the northeastern states. In Hawaii, the heaviest storm in five years which drenched the islands with eight inches of rain dropped up to eight inches of snow on Mt. Haleakala. Two satellite observers were trapped briefly on the 10,000 foot volcanic peak on the island of Maui. They said the roads were covered So they waited for relief late Tuesday. The low temperatures had already invaded'’ the Great Basin area by early today and temperatures were in the 20s. Elsewhere along the northern belt, temperatures still were above thawing. Huron, S.D., had a record high Tuesday of 61 and Sioux Falls, S.D., had a new high of 59. In Indiana, the temperature moved to 31 Tuesday, ending a string of 20 consecutive hours in which the hourly temperature had remained at 30. In Colorado, Pueblo had a high of 67 but at Grand Junction on the opposite side of the state, the mercury rose to only 16. _
Anderson Man Held For Bank Robbery ANDERSON, Ind. (UPI) — 1 Jimmy Lee Morehead, 26, Anderson, was held here today pending a hearing before a U.S. commissioner in Indianapolis in connection with the robbery of a branch bank here. FBI agents and Indiana State Police arrested Morehead at his home Tuesday, about 24 hours after the $1,943 holdup at the Edgewood.branch of the Anderson Banking Co. Agents said they traced him through the license number of the getaway car used in the holdup. The FBI said Morehead admitted the robbery, second of the year in Indiana, and returned $1,352 of the loot. The state’s first bank robbery of the year, Jan. 3 at Switz City, is still unsolved. In that holdup, a gunman escaped with almost $2,200 from the Switz City branch of the Linton Peoples Trust Co. Morehead told authorities he had worked as a part-time bartender and insurance salesman but recently was unemployed. He said he was in debt and needed cash to pay bills. Morehead said he planned to rob another bank instead of the Edgewood branch but when he went there he found so many customers he decided against it. Morehead is married and has two children. He said he paid bills with about S4OO of the loot. The baUp.ee. waS recovered from his billfold and the glove compartment of his car, police said. Long Session Is Ended In Paper Strike NEW YORK (UPD—Top publishers and representatives of the New York printing Pressmen’s Union ended a marathon bargaining session early today — their first joint meeting since the city’s newspaper strike began on Dec. The parley, veiled in secrecy, broke up at about 4:30 a.m. after almost 12 hours of continuous meetings. Amory Bradford, president of the New York PuHishers Association, said only: _“No progress.” Other negotiators offered a terse “No comment.” Union officials refused even to identify themselves, but Robert E. Clune, president of NPPU Local 2, was recognized. The principals earlier had declined to concede that a meeting was taking place. None would comment on whethef the session presaged a break in the solid union front in the dispute. When the International Typographical Union struck four papers on Dec. 8, precipitating the shutdown of five others, the NPPU was one of six other unions idled. The pressmen and the other idled unions had pledged solidarity with the striking printers, and had been to be waiting for the printers to negotiate a precedent-making settlement with the NYPA. Two federal mediators also attended today’s session: Stephen I. Schlossberg and Irvin Gerard. Both had no comment, except to say that no further joint sessions were scheduled. I Overflow Crowd At Reception For Bayh WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen. Birch E. Bayh Jr., D-Ind., who confounded pollsters in November by winning election to the Senate, upset calculations of capital caterers Tuesday. The? new senator was guest of honor at a reception given by Indiana Gov. Matthew E. Welsh on the eve of Bayh’s swearing-in. As is customary, more persons were invited to the affair in a committee room of the Senate Office Building than were expected to attend. One staff aide estimated 15,000 invitations were issued. Caterers wise in the ways of senatorial receptions provided tidbits for 1,200. But as many as 2,500 tried to attend, according to one of the capital pplicemen assigned to handle the good-natured crowd. Hoosiers here to see their new senator take the oath of office, and capital workers eager to meet the man who defeated veteran' Republican Sen. Homer E. Capehart, started arriving 30 minutes before the 5-7 p.m. affair was scheduled to begin. By 6 p.m. the corridor was packed with guests hoping to squeeze their way in, blocking the, exit of those who had gone through the reception 1 * line and were trying in vain to snake their way out. An hour later, about 50 still waited patiently for their chance to greet the new senator. Custodians said apprehensively Bayh will be guest of honor today at another reception given by Sen. Vance Hartke, D-Ind.
Meredith Is Again Jeered By Students OXFORD, Miss. (UPD—Negro student James H. Meredith was greeted with jeers and catcalls for the second successive night at the University of Mississippi cafeteria Tuesday night. About 25 of 100 students walked out after the 29-year-old Air Force veteran arrived at the cafeteria, focal point of rowdy demonstrations against Meredith last fall until the university threatened stern disciplinary action. - — “Ignore the nigger with vigor,” the departing students shouted. Most of the remaining students applauded them. A similar demonstration was staged by about 80 students when Meredith entered the cafeteria Monday night. Revival of the demonstrations apparently was caused by Meredith’s announcement Monday that he could not remain at “Ole Miss” under the present circumstances. Meredith said he would not register for the second semester beginning Feb. 2 unless “definite and positive changes are made.” Final examinations for the ucrrent term begin Jan. 18. A federal grand jury began closed door hearings Tuesday on i charges against 11 persons., incldding former Maj. Gen. EtfwAt Walker, arrested in connection with the bloody rioting that accompanied Meredith’s admission to “Ole Miss” last Sept. 30. The 16-member panel is deciding whether to return indictments in the cases. Two County Youths Enlist In Marines Sgt. Dale E. Duffner, new Marine Corps recruiter for Adams county, announced that two county youths have enlisted in, the corps for four years. They are Alex R. Neal, son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Neal of Berne, and David F. Harris, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Harris of French township. Both were enlisted in the corps aviation program as a buddy group. They left last week for 10 weeks of recruit training at San Diego, Calif., and four weeks of advanced training at Camp Pendleton, Calif. They will then be granted a 20-day leave whil enroute to one of the corps’ aviation schools.

WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 9, 1963 . .... . —■
Bill Would Increase Three-Way Permits INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — The 1963 Legislature will get a bill which would pave the way for an _ increase in the number of threeway liquor permits in Indiana. The bill would exempt hotels from the quota system which now prevents the issuance of any more three-way permits for the serving of wine, beer and whisky in all Indiana cities except Indianapolis. The law limits such permits to one for each 1,000 population and at present Indianapolis is believed to be the only cities whose quota is not filled. The Indiana Alcoholic Beverage Commission is not sponsoring the bill but chairman Joe A. Harris said that backers of the plan have conferred with commission officials. - _ Harris pointed out that no more three-way permits will be available under the existing quota system except in Indianapolis until after the 1970 census. However, he said that if hotels and motels are exempted from the quota plan the way would be opened for additional permits to be issued in any city or town where the new law resulted in a vacancy. However, Harris said such new three-way permits would be issued only if the local liquor board voted to take the action. In addition to exempting existing hotels with three-way permits. the new law would allow the fsstianee of ‘>ese permits to new hotels arid motor hotels so long as the new establishments met the requirements of the law. He pointed out that while most existing motels do not meet the requirements of 25 rooms, a dining room and a bar under the same roof, many of the new motor hotels do. Harris defended the proposed law, explaining “the people who stay in hotels and motor hotels , are transient and not permanent . residents and these establishments ' should be exempted from the . quota which is based on the resident population.” The quota plan was set up by i a 1935 law which Harris noted was before the era of interstate : superhighways. The chairman said he did not know how many additional three- , way permits would result from such exemptions but added “I t don’t think it would be very i many.” > . If you have something to sell or l trade — use the Democrat want ads — they get BIG results..
