ART DEPARTMENT TOURS • FURNITUE FACTORY Eighteen members of the Art department of the Decatur Woman's club motored to Berne Sunday afternoon for a tour through the Dunbar Furniture factory. Diis trip took the place of its regular April meeting. Jethro Sprunger and his wife, Donnabelle, president of the Woman’s club, conducted the group through the various departments of the factory. Dunbar furniture is internationally famous for its fine contemporary styling and superb crafstmanship. It is a furniture for all generations. The Dunbar story began in 1919 at the village of Linn Grove, when a coachmaker, named Aloysius Dunbar, found leisure time from his trade to make a lether.covered rocking chair for his wife. Friends joined him as partners to form a company. When the young firm moved to Berne, where they could be on a railroad, the other partners bought out Dunbar. However, they agreed to retain his easy-to-say, solid-sounding name. In 1931, EM ward Wormley was hired as designer and is still with the company as design director.

Liberals In Senate Fight Nominations WASHINGTON (UPD—A smaU band of Senate liberals waged a last-ditch fight today to prevent confirmation of the 14 founding officers of the Communications Satellite Corporation. Despite their determined opposition, the Senate was exected to end the two-day debate by aroving the 14 men named by President Kennedy to set up the new company created by Congress last year. The battle centered around the issue raised by the liberals of whether the Senate had the conctitutional right to give its “advice and consent” to officers of a private corporation organized for profit. Sen. Wayne Morse, D-Ore., spoke for more than two hours on the constitutional issue before the Senate recessed Wednesday night. He warned that Senate confirmation of “these private businessmen” would “mislead investors” who buy stock in the corporation into believing that it is a government agency. Morse said Congress never intended it to be when it passed the bill creating the government-regulated, privately owned company, which eventually will operate a global commercial communications system. Other congressional news: Lobbying: Senate investigators called a high-fee lobbyist associate of John A. O’Donnell to find out just how much the two Washington men earned in pushing passage of the $73 million Philippine war damage claim act last year. The witness, Ernest Schein, former chief examiner of the Philippine War Damage Commission, was summoned for questioning behind closed doors of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Farm: Party pressures and politics plunged the House into a confusing, topsy-turvy struggle over farm policy. The question was whether the House should approve today — or sidetrack for at least a month —a bill to extend for two more years federal payments to growers of corn and other feed grains to Induce them to curtail surplus, plantings. Administration strategists sfelt that the timing of the feed grain bill’s enactment could prove decisive in helping to persuade wheat farmers to accept the controversial new controls Congress enacted last year. Savings* Congress was told Wednesday that the Kennedy administration will soon request stand-by authority to control dividend rates paid on savings accounts by savings and loan associations. The controls and other provisions for tighter federal supervision were described as the administration’s price for supporting legislation that would boost maximum federal insurance on savings accounts from SIO,OOO to $25,000 on each account. Spending: A congressional housekeeping committee approved unanimously a bill to im. pose new curbs and reporting requirements on overseas speeding by traveling congressmen. Chairman Omar Burleson, D-Tex., said the pleasure should go far towards halting alleged abuse by some travelers and excessive outlays of counterpart funds. McNamara* Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara said Wednesday Russia apparently is beginning to believe that even

“local wars” are too dangerous these days- But Red China, he said, obviously doesn't agree. He made the statement in urging a Senate appropriations subcommittee to approve the full $49 billion sought by President Kennedy in his defense budget. Weather Affects Arthritic Victims CHICAGO (UPD—Research has confirmed the weather forecasting effect of arthritis, an American Medical Association publication said today. Dr. Joseph Lee Hollander, Philadelphia, a University of Pennsylvania rheumatologist, said in the current issue of the Archives of Environmental Health, “weather effect is not just another old wives tale.” Hollander said, “We believe that we have established on a scientific basis that the environment has a definite and measurable effect on arthritis.” Hollander reported on his experiments with arthritics in a $125,000 controlled climate chamber called the “Climatron.” Placing rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis patients in the 15-foot square concrete chamber which was sealed to exclude the outside air, barometric pressure was lowered and humidity increased, similar to the natural climatic changes which occur just before a rain storm. “In seven of the eight rheumatoid and three of the four osteoarthritic patients there was a significant worsening of symptoms ... in 29 of 40 trails ■ . . the subjective symptoms increased within four hours of the start of the climate change and the objective worsening was obvious within six to eight hours,” he said. He found the pain abated after 24 hours of the high humidity, low air pressure condition, indicating that it was the change rather than the factors themselves which caused the condition.
