Kendallville Seeks Action On Parking The Kendallville retail . merchants association is attempting to get some action lor the city’s off-street parking project. The merchants addressed a letter to the Kendallville city council requesting that a limited program be undertaken at once. The association asked that 50 per cent of all parking meter receipts be used for completion of the prqjpct, long in the planning stage. and recent winner of a court test. Kendallville merchants financing the project, whicli calls have already contributed toward for off-street parking facilities on State and Orchard streets. An association spokesman said that there was no desire to pressure city officials. He said that the association hoped that if the city intended to proceed with the off-street parking program that meters would be included as part of that plan. “It is our understanding that meters can be installed with -no additional expense by using presently owned meters,” he said, “plus any additional ones needed, to be paid for by lease or on an ‘out of meter income’ basis.” The association also requested that an ordinance be passed to set aside 50 per cent of present meter receipts for the completion of the facilities. “By starting this limited project as originally planned at once,” said the spokesman, “and making an ordinance setting aside 50 per cent of receipts by the present city administration, we can see no reason why the successful conclusion of the entire project cannot be made too far in the future.” The association’s suggestions were referred to the Kendallville board of public works and safety for “review and consideration.” Foreign-Born Girl New Miss U.

Young Republican Head Gives Views

EDITOR’S NOTE' Barry Goldwater for president... Repeal of the federal income tax ... withdrawal from the United Nations... arming of Cuban exiles. These are some of the policies advocated by the strongly Conservative new head of the National Young Republican Federation, which has come to wield increasing influence in the GOP. What if Goldwater Isn’t the 1964 Republican presidential nominee? What about the Birchers? What has been the reaction of senior GOP leaders to the swing to the right by the “juniors?” Donald (Bus) Lukens, Young Republican president gives his candid views in the following exclusive interview. By RAYMOND LAHR And FRANK ELEAZER United Press International WASHINGTON (UPI) - Donald E. (Buz) Lukens, elected Young Republican national chairman after a public endorsement of Sen. Barry Goldwater for president, pledged himself today to a neutral stand on potential GOP candidates and promised to support whoever is nominated. But the outspoken 32-year-old minority clerk of the House Rules Committee, in a question-and-an-swer session with UPI reporters, reaffirmed his belief in the Arizona senator’s conservative philosophy; said a conservative Republican would run better next year than a “me too” candidate; and predicted defeat of President Kennedy no matter who gets the nod. Lukens, a bachelor from Xenia, Ohio, is a self-styled “amateur” and newcomer to politics. He won the chairmanship of the Young Republican Federation in San Francisco last month after what he conceded was a “tempestuous” convention and what his predecessor called a "nightmare” session at which police once were called to keep order. In his campaign for the twoyear office Lukens, who previously had won chairmanship of the federation’s District of Columbis unit, publicly committed himself to Goldwater; advocated repeal of the income tax, and called for withdrawal of the United States from the United Nations. Lukens, whose campaign and election prompted some concern among senior Republicans about the GOP image projected from the Young Republican Convention, said nobody in the party hierarchy had censured him. And he said he had met nothing but friendly cooperation at party headquarters here. Q. Accounts of your convention appear to show the convention was solidly for Goldwater. Is that a correct assessment? A. That accounting of the convention, yes. I wouldn’t agree with many others. Q. And you yourself endorsed Goldwater. How can you be neutral now? A. I can be neutral, simply by doing my job. The federation always has been neutral and as far as I am concerned, and as far as anybody working under me, it will be neutral. We will endorse any Republican nominee who has been officially-selected. Q. Your predecessor in this job (Leonard Nadasdy of Minnesota, who presided at the convention) said that he saw in the convention evidence that the real objective of the John Birch Society to subvert the Republican party and to seize control” of the party. A. I don’t know about the subverting, and I am not a member of the John Birch Society and never will be. Along the same line I will not condone or condemn them. My politics are Republican. I have room for anyone in the Republican party and I will not take part in any political activity outside the Republican party. Q. Do you think the position of conservatism espoused by this convention should be the position of the GOP? A. Basically I do think the conservative philosophy is the predominant philosophy at this time within the framework of the Republican party. And, yes, I think it should be listened to. I think the overriding conclusion from Warns On Dangers In Viewing Eclipse BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (UPI) — Optometry Prof. Ingeborn Schmidt of Indiana University said today that brown-eyed persons are more likely than blue-eyed persons to suffer eye damage through careless observation of Saturday’s solar eclipse Prof. Schmidt said nobody should take chances, regardless of the eye color. Biit she said eyes of brown suffer retinal burns faster because the darker pigment absorbs more heat. Prof. Schmidt said children's eyes are more susceptible to damage than adults’, because the pupils are larger, admitting more rays, and the lenses transmit more solar energy.

THURSDAY, JULY 1«,

the convention is that Young Republicans want to. have a voice, and want their voice heard. Lukens said an important factor in the coming presidential election is the possibility of Republican gains in Congress. He sajd with a conservative standard bearer the party could pick up 10 to 25 House seats “permanently and quickly” from southern areas previously written off to Democrats. He conceded that such a stand by the party nationally could hurt chances of some liberal GOP candidates from the East but said, “I’m more concerned with the fate generally of the Republican party than with any specific area.” Q. Is it true you have recommended repeal of the personal income tax? A. In essence, yes. Q. Then where are you going to get the money? A. There are 20 different ways of going at this problem. The first thing of course is to reduce federal spending to its absolute minimum. I think we spend too much money for example in the field of foreign aid. In other areas, I would like to see state assumption of more areas of social welfare. Q. Wouldn’t you have to pay more state taxes then? A. That’s true. I’m not against state taxes. Lukens said he favors withdrawal of the United States from the United Nations “as presently structured.” He said the United Nations has not accomplished its pxißßton. A*substitute, he suggested creation of a “United Nations of the free world,” as proposed by former President Hoover. Q- Do you have any general advice for the Republican party on how to win elections? A. I think what we have not done is sell our positive accomplishments over the past 30 years. This is one of the things this new group (The Young Republicans) wants to do. We need to educate the general public as well as our own party as to the accomplishments of our party within the recent years. We need to tell the people about our stand on civil rights, a stand that actually is stronger than the Democrat party’s. Q. If you do that, how do you also carry the South? A. I don’t think that the South, the • individual Southerner, is as concerned about the Mhrll rights issue as he is about the economic and social and political future of that portion of the country. Q. In its civil rights resolution your executive committee appears to have come out against a proposed public accommodations law. A. I have in my mind serious and sincere doubts as to whether it’s a violation of a personal right to refuse service or to insist on service. It has not been legally decided. I an not a racist. I am definitely, if anything, a liberal on civil rights. I’m for these people 100 per cent and there’s no doubt that any citizen of the United States must have the right to vote, the right to housing, the right to education, the right to employment. But I do nojt want to confuse privileges with rights.
