Near Record lows Reported In State By United Press International Frosty temperatures invaded Indiana again today, sending the mercury dwindling to near record lows in the sub-freezing 20s over most of the state. > ' I South Bend recorded a chill 22 ' above zero, whUe Fort Wayne re- 1 corded 24, Lafayette 25, Indianapolis 27, Cincinnati 28, Louisville 31 and Evansville 34. The Indianapolis low was within three degrees of the all-time minimum fdr April 10 established in 1918. There was no early idication of relief from the subnormal temperatures, and the stiU-fuzzy prospects for Easter were the possibility of cool weather and rain. The five-day outlook did not specifically call for rain on Sunday. But it mentioned precipitation “about Friday or Saturday” in the north portion and “near the end of the week” elsewhere, an outlook which could spill rain over into Easter. This morning’s lows came after highs Tuesday ranging from 44 at South Bend to 65 at Evansville. Highs today will range from 44 to 56, lows tonight from* 28 to 36, and highs Thursday from near 50 to the upper 50s. Generally sunny weather was exacted through Thursday, with considerable cloudiness developing Friday and rain considered likely. The five-day outlook called for temperatures averaging near normal north and 2 or 3 degrees below normal elsewhere. Upstate, there will be little change until “a little warmer about Friday and Saturday.” Elsewhere, a slight warming trend was expected after tonight, “turning cooler over weekend.’ Precipitation in the five days ending next Monday will total about one-fourth to one-half inch north and one-half to three-fourths inch central and south.

In a communique Winding up a three-day SEATO council session, they reiterated their support for a “neutral and independent Laos under a government of national union.” They noted that the government of embattled South Viet Nam has succeeded in checking the Communist Viet Cong rebellion. They voiced the hope thaK Viet Nam will progress further towards “internal stability and international security.’ The communique was issued after a final session at which the ministers: —-Named Pote Sarasin of Thailand to continue as SEATO secretary general for another two years. —Named Manila as the site of the council session in 1964, the 10th anniversary of the signing of the SEATO pact in that city. —Adopted a long series of resolutions on technical details of the work of the • eight-nation alliance The council, the closing communique said, “reaffirmed that that main aim of the Manila pact is to insure the peaceful development, economic stability and national independence of the countries within the area. The communique made these other main points: —The rushing of U.S. and other SEATO troops to Thailand last year helped it to carry out its obligations to the alliance. —Development of effective measures against Communist subversion is a major task for the alliance. —The council affirmed its continued support for collective security. It agreed that experience gained in recent joint military exercises- was a valuable asset for any possible combined defensive action in the future. Fort Wayne Child Burned Critically FORT WAYNE, Ind.

March Was Typical For Forest Fires State forester Robert D. Raisch, according to county clerk Richard Lewton, has announced that the month of March was “typical” as far as forest fires were concerned. The spring like weather brought many people out of their winter hibernation and due to carelessness in their spring clean-ups and debris burning, the wild March winds spread many fires out of control into nearby woodlands. One fire in Franklin county swept through an entire pine plantation, destroying a valuable crop of trees which were nearly ready for harvest, Raisch said. Two separate fires on successive weekends threatened the Mor-gan-Monroe state forest. These fires were controlled by prompt action on the part of the forest superintendents and conservation officers, but not before they burned over 100 acres of forest land. In every instance the fires resulted from careless debris burning, and a number of citations were issued which resulted in prosecution and fines. Raisch urged land owners to use extreme caution with fire during the next month, since the spring fire season is just past the half-way mark.

WEDNESDAY, APRIL If). 1963

Huge Gambling Raid Aimed At Chicago Ring CHICAGO (UPD — A federal grand jury sifted evidence today from a mammoth gambling raid aimed at the heart of Chicago’s crime syndicate operation. An army of 300 Internal Revenue Service agents swooped down on suburban Chicago Heights, Calumet City, Steger and Burnham in southern Cook County Tuesday in broad daylight. They hit 18 locations, including a half dozen vire rooms, issued 60 subpoenas to gamblers for appearances before the special grand jury, and confiscated a , mass of horse betting records. U.S. Dist. Atty. James P. O’- ’ Brien said the raid was believed to have encompassed two entire syndicate bookmaking rings. He said it was the “largest of its kind to be carried out in the history of federal gambling enforce- ' ment ” O’Brien said the raid was part of Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kenne--1 dy’s drive against organized ’ crime in northern Illinois. Ken- ! nedy, during a visit to Chicago 1 three weeks ago. said gambling had replaced narcotics as the big venture of crime syndicates and federal agents were concentrat- . ing on stopping gambling. O’Brien said the raid had been planned for six months. He said out-of-town agents were used so . they would not be recognized. The . Air National Guard was used to , bring in agents from Wisconsin, Michigan and other parts of Illinois. , The agents were given three . hours of briefing, then they fanned , out through the South Side com- . munities. * O’Brien’s organized crime divi- . sion kept in touch with them through two-way radio equipment. None of the places raided had i purchased a federal gambling , stamp, and none had paid the 10 [ per cent wagering tax on bets ' handled. Among those named in the sdb--1 poenas was Ralph Emery, syndicate gambling chief formerly as--1 sociated with Anthony (Big Tuna) Accardo. reported to be Al Capone’s successor as “chairman of the board” of the Chicago crime syndicate. . Also subpoenaed was Arthur Pi- . lotto, brother of Al Pilotto, a hod ; carriers* ,ft uii ion official and another friend of Accardo.
