Rotarians On Tour Os Local Industry

An inspection tour of Gilpin, Inc., manufacturers of the ornamental iron products, highlighted the regular meeting of the Decatur Rotary club Thursday evening. Following the weekly dinner. Ed Hagan, program chairman, introduced the president and vicepresident of Gilpen, Inc., Hubert Gilpen and Max Gilpen. Hubert Gilpen, in a short address, told of I the founding of the business in 1937 I and the fast that its present site of; the Decatur industrial park, is the fourth location so the plant. Now in a new building on eight acres of land, future expansion can be well taken care of. The business is rather seasonal with the peak being reached during the summer, at which time there are 30 employes making ornamental iron railing, columns and fences for homes, garages and patios. The product is sold all over the United States with business especially good in the northeastern states of Massachusetts. Maine, Pennsylvania and New York. To keep busy during the slack season, the firm is planning the manufacture of snow shovels, work on which has already started. Max Gilpen, general manager, took the Rotarians through the factory and explained the various manufacturing processes. The raw material, steel bars and sheet steel, is purchased directly from the mills, and is cut, formed, drawn twisted and welded into artistic patterns. Due to the fact that the equipment necessary for work cannot be bought, the firm makes its own equipment consisting of twisters, scroll sheans, dies etc. Starting with the raw steel, the group saw the making of the iron products, and the final step, which is the dipping there of in tanks of paint. It was explained that most of the material Is sold through retail outlets, such as hardware stores and lumber companies.

Hartford Township Budget Submitted A budget of $4,948, which includes a S7OO raise in the cost of caring for cemeteries, and a SSOO increase in the cost of fire proprotection, plus a $235 increase for other civil township expenses, has been submitted for approval to the taxpayers and the advisory board of Hartford township by the trustee, Wayne Dubach. The new budget will call for a rate of 25 cents for the civil township, compared with 24 cents for this tax year. A total of $4,299 will have to be raised by taxes, compared with $3,778 last year. The assessed valuation is $1,751,260, compared with an estimate of $1,623190 last year. The poor relief fund will take $1,725, compared with $1,620 this year; SIOO is for contributions for joint expense, and $5 more for personal services. The poor relief rate will be figured by the county auditor, Edward F. Jaberg, based on the amount left over from this year, and the proposed budget. Last year’s Hartford rate also included a $2.73 rate for the schbol system, but this year Hartford township is part of South Adams, and therefore the school rate will be uniform in South Adams, which will be figured as a separate taxing unit.

Hallock To Press For Indiana Port VALPARAISO. Ind. (UPD— House Republican minority leader Charles A. Halleck said today‘he intends to “press with all the vigor at my command” for the authorization by Congress of federal participation in the Burns Ditch port project on Lake Michigan. Halleck made the statement in a stop here while on a Northern Indiana fair tour, shortly after the Valparaiso Vidette-Messenger received from Lee C. White, a presidential assistant, a letter admitting that the Budget Bureau's study of the port has taken “an unusually long time” but adding that the review may be “finished in the near future.” The newspaper had asked the bureau several questions about the status of the port matter and had received no reply for more than three weeks. Halleck said he had “quite a lengthy conversation with highly placed people from the White House and the Budget Bureau” regarding the port Thursday and “urged in the strongest terms that approval should be forthcoming.” “I have high hopes that the jus- i tice of our cause will shortly be | confirmed by the Budget Bureau," Halleck said. "Beyond that, it is my present intention to press with all the vigor at my command for the authorization of the Burns Harbor project by the Public Works Committee of the House when the next rivers and harbors bill comes up for consideration.” “I also expect to press with equal vigor,” he added, "for approval of our project when the rivers and harbors bill is reported to the floor of the Housb for action.” Auction Students Welcomed To City Some 68 students of the Reppert School of Auctioneering were welcomed to Decatur Thursday afternoon by Mayor Donald F.

CHICAGO (UPD—Negroes lay in the mud at a school emplacement site today three miles from the tense South Side area where racial violence has erupted for four consecutive nights. The “lay-down” demonstration, in protest against what Negroes charge are segregated classrooms took place during a series of driving rainstorms. Police arrested 26 of the demonstrating Congress of Racial Equality members. They were ' taken to Englewood police station, already crowded with Negroes and whites arrested Thursday night in the tense area surrounding 56th Morgan streets. At least 24 persons were in-1 jured, most of them by flying glass, and 41 persons were arrested Thursday night around the apartment building where Negro families have moved in. They brought to 133 the number of persons picked up during four nights in the adjoining Negro and white area. Eighteen men and eight women, all Negro were arrested at the CORE "lay-in” today. Eighteen mobile classrooms, j much like house trailers, were i being placed on rented property at 73rd and Lowe Streets in an area known as “Lilly Gardens Park.” Integrationists have claimed these temporary units were ordered implaced to foster segregated schools. The demonstrators lay in the street and on the ground in an attempt to prevent trucks from entering the site. Thursday night around 56th and Morgan, crowds shouted curses and heaved rock an bottles in Chicago’s worsening racial situation. Both white and Negro persons were arrested. Young girls clad in shorts and boys in undershirts sat in the streets and chanted, “Two, four, six, eight; we don't want to integrate." Several were arrested when they kicked and pounded a police car that attempted to drive through the group. “If you’re white, you’re all right; if you're black, stay back,” demonstrators shouted. The demonstration spread four blocks in every direction from a red brick, 30-year-old building at 57th and Morgan into which three Negro families have moved this week. A trestle two blocks to the south for years has been the dividing line between the Negroes and the whites. Police estimated nearly 1,000 persons—about the same number as Wednesday night — roamed through the neighborhood. Many were curiosity seekers, but officers said the. crowd was more militant than during previous nights. Msgr. Richard Wolfe of Visitation Church—the huge stone edifice around which the old Irish neighborhood sprang up at the turn of the century—and several neighboring priests circulated through the crowd. Mrs. Lulu M. Lyons Is Taken By Death Mrs. Lulu M. Lyons, 71, of 144*4 South Second street, died at 11 o'clock Thursday night at the Adams county memoral hospital following a lengthy illness. She was born in Monroeville Sept. 4, 1891. the daughter of Mr and Mrs. Joshua Magner, and had resided in the Decatur area most of her life. Her husband, William Lyons, preceded her in death in 1943. Mrs. Lyons attended the Methodist church. Surviving are three sons, Herbert D. Lyons of Convoy, 0., Herman Lyons of Pleasant Mills, and Max Lyons of Beaumont, Tex., and 12 grandchildren. Funeral services will be held at 10 a.m. Monday at the Gillig & Doan funeral home, with the Rev. William C. Feller officiating. Burial will be in the Tricker cemetery at Salem. Friends may call at the funeral home after 7 p.m. Saturday until time of the services.

Confident Senate To Approve Ban Treaty

WASHINGTON lUPD — President Kennedy, confident the Senate will approve the test ban treaty, believes a non-aggression ’pact with the Soviet bloc'' also might be worthwhile if it provided "greater security for Berlin.” Kennedy told a news conference Thursday he thought it “advisable" for the NATO powers to discuss Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev's proposal for an East. West non aggression agreement to see whether it would serve the interests of the West. Ho also “said he” waF~ready~To give France nuclear weapons and know-how if President Charles de Gaulle reversed his field and agreed to sign the liipited test ban treaty and cooperate in “integration” of NATO forces—possibilities generally considered dim. China Could Start War Kennedy said Red China, dedicated to international war to spread communism, might well trigger World War HI in the 1970 s when Peking could become a nucle3r power, unless some way is found to defuse the situation. The President said he was confident, "when the testimony is all in,” that the Senate would decide the treaty with Moscow outlawing air, space and underwater tests “provides protection for the security interests of the United States” and ould ratify it.

Severe Storm Rakes Chicago

By United Press International A destructive summer thunderstorm raked metropolitan Chicago today and was followed by seiche conditions which sent the level of Lake Michigan bobbing. The Chicago storm swirled out of a squall line which covered much of the Midwest. More heavy storms were reported in the Dakotas, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Indiana. Chicago’s storm turned the skies black over the , Loop during the morning rush hour. Thirteen persons were injured when a bus smacked into another on the south Side during the downpour. Lightn ing sparked home fires, West Side viaducts were flooded, and wires and trees were down throughout the city. A lightning bolt knocked the U. S. Weather Bureau’s radar tracking system out of commission at Chicago. Seiche conditions — an atmospheric phenomenon which can lower or Vaise a lake’s level and sometimes take on dangerous tidal wave proportions—followed the storm. The lake level at Belmont Harbor dropped three feet on the city's North Side and then went 1 Mt feet above normal at nearby Montrose Beach. A sharp drop and then a half foot rise was reported at 68th Street on the South Side, The water level rose slightly and then dipped sharply at St. Joseph, Mich. Similar seiche conditions were reported at Holland, Mich., and Michigan City, Ind. Elsewhere along the squall line! Gary, Ind.: A vicious electrical storm with winds up to 60 miles an hour-howled through Indiana's steel - making Calumet area. Lighting struck the transmitter on radio station WJOB at Hammond, knocking it off the air. Another bolt hit a transformer at Hammond Noll High School. Minneapolis: Store windows were broken, trees were knocked down, cars were damaged by fallen limbs, and the roof of one home as blown off. ' Alexander.

He said the limited treaty provided “some hope of moving toward a more peaceful world," but he warned that the future was cloudy and there was nothing to warrant any relaxation of Western defense efforts or a reduction of the U. S. military budget. The United States, he said, ill continue testing nuclear weapons underground, which is permitted by the new treaty. Wouldn’t Recognise State Kennedy said signing of the treaty by Communist East Germany would not, under international practice, constitute recognition of the Soviet-occupied state by the United States or any of the other countries which have refused to establish relations with the Red regime. There seems to be no “useful purpose" to be served by holding a summit conference with Khrushchev within the foreseeable future. Kennedy said. The President said skilled negotiation such as that which resulted in the test ban agreement "is really the best way unless there Is an overwhelming crisis or unI less there is some new fact introduced into the international situation which is not now visible which would make such a (summit) meeting desirable.”
