tion at Methodist. “There were lunch boxes, schoolbooks and injured children scattered all over the street,” Police Chief Joseph Aloia said. All the children attended the Columbus Elementary School and lived in East Gary. Indianapolis Bank Robbed Os $2,612 INDIANAPOLIS (UPD— Police searched today for a young gunman who held up a southeastern branch of the Merchants National Bank & Trust Co. Monday and made off with $2,612. Hie bandit, between 25 and 30„ entered the bank in the early afternoon and handed a note to a teller, Mrs. Elizbeh Owens, Wmaker, saying: “I have a gun. Give me all your money in 10s, 20s, 50s and 100 s. I will shoot anyone who follows me.” The bandit stuffed the money in. his pocket and fled the bank. It was not known if a getaway car was waiting or if he escaped on foot. Branch manager Robert Pfeifer said the bank was held up last Nov. 11 by two men who netted $9,000.

Junior Colleges In State Are Opposed

INDIANAPOLIS (UPD — The Indiana Conference on Higher Education, an organization representing most Hoosier colleges and universities, went on record before a Senate committee Monday night as opposed to a bill calling for the establishment of junior colleges. The conference’s views were expressed at a public hearing of the Senate Education Committee by Dr. I. Lynd Esch, president of Indiana Central College here. Esch said the state’s present system of colleges and universities meet the needs of Hoosier youth. Dr. Isaac K. Beckes, president of Vincennes University, one of the few junior colleges in the state, took a stand in favor of the bill, which would establish a State Coordinating Board for Regional Community Junior Colleges. “Indiana is lagging behind in post-high school education,” Beckes said. “Junior colleges would enable a student to adjust and find out what he wants to do.” Dr. I. H. Goodman, president of Marion College, also spoke in favor of the bill.

Meanwhile, the House Public Policy Committee chairman, Rep. Joseph D. Cloud, R-Richmond, said members have voted to hold in committee indefintely a controversial bill banning certain

Rep. Powell's Budget Facing Critical Group WASHINGTON (UPI) — Rep. Adam Clayton Powell faced a cool jury of his congressional peers today in an appeal for nearly $700,000 to run his House Education and Labor Committee for the next two years. The veteran New York Democrat was the last House committee chairman to present his 1963-64 budget at a closed meeting of the House administration accounts subcommittee. His appearance was set for 2 pan., EST. Powell’s request for $697,000 seems sure to be cut, probably, by $200,000 or more. But the controversial Negro congressman may not be the only House committee chairman whose purse will be lightened this year by the aroused accounts subcommittee. Chairman Wright Patman, D-Tex., seeking $530,000 for the House Banking and Currency Committee in the next two years, and chairman Francis E. Walter, D-Pa., asking $360,000 to run the House Committee on Un-American Activities, also may see the gleam of the budget-cutters’ knife. Promises Answers Powell, who returned Monday to Washington from a two-week stay in Puerto Rico, said he would have “plenty to say” about charges by Sen. John J. Williams, R-Del., that administration agencies showed favoritism toward some of Powell's business affairs. The New Yorker said he would hold a news conference some time this week. Powell’s budget cut has been in the making for months. The knife was whetted by his disputes with Republicans over committee funds and office space, his employment of political associates as committee experts, and his mid-session tour of European night clubs and resorts with two woman aides last summer. Patman and Walter became candidates for budget cuts for different reasons. But they fit in nicely with the strategy of House members who want to trim Powell’s wings without seeming to single out one chairman. Invites Scrutiny Patman’s request is $525,000 higher than the budget allotment of his predecessor, former chairman Brent Spence, D-Ky. This alone invites close scrutiny, and Patman’s long history of controversy in economic matters makes many of his conservative colleagues balk at giving him funds for investigations. “Patman’s mischief-making capabilities are much greater than Powell’s,” Rep. John Kyi, R-lowa, 1 a member of the accoimts subcommittee, told a reporter. Walter’s committee, which employs one of the largest staffs on Capitol Hill, is the favorite target of liberals in and out of Congress. Previous attempts to cut the committee funds have been snowed under, but an effort tied to a wider slash might get more support

Sunday business activities. The Sunday closiag measure was the subject of a public hearing recently by the committee. It Was aimed at modernizing a 1905 law under which several Indiana communities sought last year to reduce the trend toward business as usual on Sundays. Cloud’s committee also voted to hold in committee a bill aimed at making the state fireworks prohibition law complete by banning sparklers and other so - called “harmless” celebration items. At another House committee meeting, indications were given that state colleges and universities might have to increase fees by as much as $l2O per student if the legislature fails to appropriate the full amount asked for in the institutions’ construction budgets. Donald H. Clark, Indiana University business manager, told the Ways and Means Committee considering a bill to permit schools to finance academic buildings with bonds retired from student fees that a fee rise is inevitable if the budget is slashed. Clark said Indiana and Purdue probably would have to raise fees by S4O to $45 per student if the legislature provides only S2O million in construction funds for the four schools instead of the $47 million they seek.

Clark said fees might rise by as much as $l2O within the next 10 years if this and future legislatures slash in half the estimated construction funds on a long range basis. The Senate Monday passed 28-18 a proposed constitutional amendment which would clear the way to removal of household goods from property taxation and would let the legislature start over again from scratch on what organizations are to be exempted from real estate taxes. The Senate joint resolution authored by Sens. Von Eichhorn, DUniondale, and Kenneth Brown, R. Muncie, attracted considerable opposition since it removed a phrase exempting municipal, educational, literary, scientific, religious or charitable organizations from taxation. But the authors urged their colleagues to at least get the proposed amendment started this year since it could not be introduced again for six years. Other bills passed by the Senate Monday and sen to the House would: —Authorize any state agency, unit or department to contract for group insurance for its employes, 45-2. —Provide that at least two of the three members of the Indiana Piiblic Service Commission must be attorneys and that all three members must devote their entire time to this work and not have outside jobs, 26-10. —Allow one member of a county hospital board of trustees to be a physician, 30-14. —Allow physicians to organization professional medical corporations, 44-0.

-o-a ■ ------t—•— ’ irttmk 1 J T/SGT. JAMES L. WILSON, above, of Monroe route 1, has received notification of his appointment as official Indiana Air Guard information representative in the Decatur area. His appointment was announced by Brig .-Gen. William R. Sefton, commander of the 122nd Tactical Fighter Wing based at Baer field. Wilson, who serves as a personnel technician in the 122nd, said he would conduct his information activities from his home. He may be contacted by calling 7-7474 between the hours of 6 p. m. and 10 p. m. Wilson is a graduate of Pleasant Mills high school, class of 1953. His wife was the former Marlene Thieme, a 1956 graduate of Decatur high school. He has been employed with, the Indiana Air National Guard since 1956. ■ ... j Gen. Sefton said, “The primary purpose in asking officers and airmen to represent the Indiana Air Guard in their local areas is to allow Indiana employers, employes, students and communities to learn more about the guard, including the advantages and opportunities that are offered to those serving, and those supporting service with the 122nd Fighter Wing. We believe the guard program offers an ideal opportunity for our younger citizens to complete their military obligation while continuing their civilian pursuits or education.” ... . Vacancies in positions of leadership are becoming available because many personnel who first saw service in Worid War II and continued with the Air Guard are now completing 20 years for retirement. Also, a sizeable segment of the younger airmen are now rounding out six-year obligations. Positions are open in units at either of the two Air Guard bases in Indiana, Baer field at Fort Wayne and Hulman field at Terre Haute.

General Motors To Up Steel Inventory DETROIT (UPD—General Motors says it is using “common ordinary business prudence, in deciding to triple its steel inventory to 1.6 million tons for protection against any steel strike this summer. The decision was announced Monday by GM chairman Frederic G. Donner and president John F. Gordon at a news confererfbe called to release the annual report. The report said GM will spend S7OO million in 1963 for new plants and equipment around the world, and more than $530 million for special tools. The firm spent.s64s million on plants and $530 million on tools in 1962. About $520 million will be psent for plants and special equipment in the United States this year, including about $260 million in Michigan. Another $275 million will be spent for' special tools in this state. Donner said the report indicates the auto industry “is still a good, dynamic, growing industry.” Personally, he said, “we are working like heU to hold our own.” Then he and Gordon revealed that GM is stockpiling steel so that if a labor crisis occurs this summer the corporation will-have enough “to finish our old models and get a supply of the new ones out.” * Gordon said GM normally carries an inventory of 550,000 to 600,000 tons. The supply is now 10-15 per cent above normal and by the end of July GM will have an extra one million tons cm hand, he said. “It is just common, ordinary business prudence,” Donner said, to build up an inventory so the firm won’t have to stop producing
