(Continued from Page One) FOUR PER CENT Senate Tuesday, 26-20, would wipe out a section of the Constitution which assures municipal, educational, literary, scientific, religious or charitable organizations of property exemptions. It also would remove a specification that taxes be “uniform and equal” and state instead they be “just.” Instead, the amendment offered to a resolution on second reading by Sen. Von Eichhorn, D-Union-dale, would put into the hands of the General Assembly the authority to “prescribe rates of taxation and exemptions.” No specific or. ganizations would be listed.

The Senate also passed, 36-4, a House bill which increases front 5 to 7 the number of textbooks which the State Board of Education must offer for the choice of schools in various subjects. It goes back, to the House for concurrence. The House had made the number of approved textbooks 10, but the Senate put this back to 7. A bill to allow the majority of delegates present and voting at a party convention to cast the deciding vote on nominees for political office, was adopted 37-5 after Kizer first poked fun at the Republicans over ah impasse which occurred at their 1962 convention. So many delegates went home that the GOP was unable to complete its Appellate Court nominations under the present requirements that a majority of all delegates is needed for- nomination A school reorganization catchall bill backed by several individual lawmakers, but not by the Indiana School Reorganization Commission, was approved by the Senate, 38-0, and goes to the House. Sens. Wesley Bowers, DEvansville, and Lee Clingan, IlCovington, got the permission of the authors to gut a dead House bill and put these provisions into it: Specify that if 100 or more legal residents of a school corporation file a written petition calling for election of school board members by districts, that the board must adopt a resolution to this effect —ls another 100 or more residents remonstrate against the resolution, then the board must call an election to determine whether members of the school board be chosen by districts or not. Specify that bonds issued by certain school corporations in Vanderburgh County to finance construction and equipment of a school building will be valid and an obligation against the prior school corporations should a consolidation plan be ruled invalid. Q New Theft Laws A Legislative Advisory, Commission study project which resulted in a new law covering all thefts except robbery passed, 27-11, after a long and lively debate among the senators. Sen. Morris Hall, R-Marion, warned that the effect of the bin would be “to throw out the window” 200 or 300 years of ! legal precedent and predicted “a lot of people won’t be convicted ... this win cause utter chaos in our courts." However, Sens. Robert Brokenburr, R-Indianapolis, and Kizer defended the theft code and said it would clarify existing law, providing more protection for property and removing unequal penalties for the same type of theft. Ben. William Christy, DHam mond, gained approval for a modified form of a Lake County bin he has sought to enact the regular session and failed. The measure, put into a revised House bill, calls for a county-wide tax to be distributed so that each school child has $365 in assessed property value behind him. The original bill would have made this SB,OOO. Christy said that the City of

(Continued from Page One) PAPER STRIKE and public relations firms, wastepaper dealers, and workers in myriad businesses connected with the papers, not to mention the papers’ 19,074 employes. Equally tragic but never to be calculated is the loss of information to the readers, to whom more than three months of history may justifiably be a confused blur. However, radio and television facilities, plus the weekly news magazines, stepped gallantly into the breach, and a number of strike-born publications supplied news-hungry readers with a synopsis of the coverage to which they were accustomed. Papers from nearby cities were imported, and New Yorkers became familiar with political and local news of Philadelphia, Boston and other metropolises while getting information in detail on national, international and sports stories. Follows Printers* Package The settlement accepted by negotiators or the photoengravers falls within the $12.63 package accepted by the printers, who had initiated the Strike in Dec. 8. This package provided a pattern for settlement with all the unions involved. Negotiatons with the photoengravers had foundered on the question of a work week reduction from 36Vi hours to 35 hours. As accepted, the pact will give the union this reduction on the “lobster,” or overnight shift only, in the second year of the contract They obtained also three days of paid personal leave per year, effective in the second year of the pact, plus a fourth week of paid vacation after one year’s service. The settlement represented some “modifications,” proposed by the union and accepted by the publishers, from a settlement offer advanced by Wagner two days ago There was nothing but praise for Wagner, who had entered the dispute when all. parties conceded the breakdown of collective bargaining. Thayer said, “I got to know the mayor intimately and 1 like what I know.” Training Meetings For Cancer Crusade Three training meetings for city and township volunteers for the cancer crusade, will be held within the next two weeks, it was explained this morning by Mrs. Robert Krueckeberg, president of the Adams county cancer society The first training meeting will be held Monday, April 8, at the Inidana & Michigan building at 7:30 p.m. and two meeting will be held Thursday, April 11, at I & M. The April 11 meetings will be held at 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Volunteers were requested to take note of the change of schedule for the meeting, as the two that were scheduled for April 4 have now Seen changed to April 11. Volunteers need attend only one of the three training meetings, Mrs. Krueckeberg said. The cancer crusade is scheduled to be held in April. Gary, which would have been giving away $1 million to poorer schools in the county under the original bill, would get back SBOO,000 of its million under the ne plan- The measure is eligible for passage Wednesday.

Racial Violence In Mississippi Town GREENWOOD, Miss. (UPI) — Two shotgun blasts Tuesday night ripped into the home of the father of a Negro recently denied admission to the University of Mississippi. It was the latest of a series of violet incidents in this racially troubled town. No one was injured by the blasts which shattered glass in a front door and window at the home of Dewey Greene Sr. Dewey Green Jr. claimed he was turned down at Ole Miss Jan. 31 because of his race but university officials said he was denied admission because his academic record was unacceptable. The case is now pending in the courts. George Green, 19, a voter registration worker and brother of Dewey Greene Jr., said the shots were fired from a car which followed him home. “I hadn't been in the house more than a few seconds when the shots were fired,” George, a high school senior, said. He had just been driven home by a friend when the shooting occured. “I didn’t get a good look at the car, but there was more than one person in it,” he said. Police investigated but declined immediate comment. Dewey Greene Jr. now lives in
