totals 700 men and the gendarmedie 500. The resignation came as an estimated 10,000 persons chanted demands outside the heavily guarded palace that Youlou quit. A spokesman for the French forces here said Youlou’s resignation has terminated the military support given him by members of the 2,000-man French army Garrison at the start of the antigovernment riots Tuesday. The rioting was started when an estimated 3,000 trade union members marched on the city jail in an attempt to free two of their leaders. They burned and looted the jail, freed all the prisoners, burned down th? , television station and looted private homes of several government ministers. When the demonstrations continued Wednesday, Youlou fired his cabinet members and was rejwrted trying to form a new government when he was forced to quit. The rioters had demanded that Youlou give up his plan for a one-party system, end alleged nepotism in government and include trade union representatives in the regime. He already had announced that proclamation of the one-party system, shceduled for todays third anniversary of the country’s independence, has been postponed. - New York Stock Exchange Prices TWMdat prices A T. & T. 124; Central Soya 28%; Du Pont 2431/2: Ford 51%; General Electric 81%; General Motors 71%; Gulf Oil 49%; Standard Oil Ind. 65%; Standard Oil N.

Ex-Governor Schricker To Be 80 Aug. 30 By EUTENE J. CADOU United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) - Henry F. Schricker, the only Hoosier ever elected governor twice, will be a youthful 80 years old on Aug. 30. While other oldsters spend hours in their rocking chairs, Schricker, often termed the patron saint of the Indiana Democratic Party, retnains active. Although he has retired to the old family home on Main Street in Knox, Schricker drives his automobile often over the state. His next trip will be to attend the meeting of the Indiana Democratic Editorial Association in French Lick, Aug. 23-24, where he undoubtedly will be a special guest of honor and receive high tributes from the younger party chiefs who have succeeded him in the Democratic hierarchy. Mrs. Schricker, also active in her golden years, will accompany him. Scouts Honor Him Last week, there was an advance celebration of the former governor’s birthday. He was guest of honor at a meeting of the Pottawattomi Council of Boy Scouts near Michigan City. Counselling Boy Scouts is an activity that has held over into Schricker’s retirement period. A trip to the Brown County cottage of his daughter and son-in-law, Dr. and Mrs. Louis C. Robbins, of the U. S. Public Health Service a short time ago likewise might be recorded as an early birthday observance. Schricker is mighty proud of the tomatoes, carrots and mangoes he raises in his back-yard garden, as well as the plums that he gathers for the delicious jelly Mrs. Schricker fabricates. His appetite remains excellent. When the writer talked with him, he was sniffing the delectable odors of catfish which Mrs. Schricker was cooking. They were the gift of friends who had caught them in the bayou of Yellow River near Knox. But Mrs. Schricker has prevailed in her battle against purchase of a pontoonboat, once craved by her husband, although another former governor, Ralph F. Gates, 'offered to teach Schricker the art of pontoon navigation. Surplus SBO Million Friends of Schricker are proud of the fact that when he left the governor’s chair early in 1953, there was ,a surplus of more than SBO miflrori in the'state Today, bnly 10 yeark later, the S,tate is barjely in the black and faces ’hair-raising "higher taxes. “I still believe that a government should not spend more than if receives,” Schricker said. “But that seems to be an unpopular belief these days.” As the evening shadows draw, Schricker says the values of friendships Jjecome more and more important. He spends many of his hours answering the letters of the big and little people he has met during his long years in public and private life. There probably will be a deluge of letters and cards to handle on the occasion of his eightieth birthday on Aug. 30.

Girl Confesses To Setting Home Fires WINCHESTER, Ind. (UPD— A tearful 10-year-old girl, one of 12 children, told police here Tuesday she set five fires in her home. The fires burned the family’s winter clothes closet, a wastebasket, a utility room, the garage and a bedroom. The child said she didn't know why she did it. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bradburn became alarmed at. the fires when a rash of four broke out the last two weeks, causing about S6OO damage.

Her eleven brothers and sisters, ranging in age from 7 to 25, and her mother and father sat silently. Besides the August fires, she admitted setting a blaze last Dec. 8 which burned the family’s entire Supply of winter clothes.

More Employes Than Patients In Hospitals IT^lANA i> o tts (VPi)-x- An ini spection of Indiana's two hospitals for patients ill with tuberculosis and other chest diseases shows more employes than patients. The three-man team assigned by Governor Welsh from his own Department of Administration to inspect all state institutions reported that unlike other institution it visited, the Indiana State Hospital for Chest Diseases at Rockville and the Southern Indiana Tuberculosis Hospital at New Albany were in excellent condition. However, James H. Berg, deputy commissioner of the department, raised the question whether, in view of the comparatively small number of patients, the .two hospitals should not be consolidated into One. At the time of the inspection, Rockville had 120 patients and 140 employes, and New Albany had 134 patients and a staff of 134. “How many people is necessary to staff a hospital to give adequate Service?” Berg questioned, ’’not being a medial man, I would not know but it is something that someone should look at very closely. '* 'lndiana Health Commissioner Andrew Offutt, who has Charge of all Department of Health institutions noted that “it would at first blush seem reasonable to close Rockville, to expand Silvercrest (New Albany), and to move the Rockville patients to that institution. “This matter has been under review for two or three years, and has \ encountered resistance in many areas. Personally I feel this might have certain benefits, but, on the other hand, if one . were to have a single institution fqr the care of the tuberculosis it would seem that a new plant at a central location designed to be able to be converted to the care of a different type patient when and if the requirement for the care of the tuberculous is reduced would be the best solution.” Offutt went on to suggest “consideration might be given td establishment of a modern hospital for the treatment of chest diseases the present (Indiana University) Medical Center campus, perhaps in connection with the Kflanned expansion of the univer-

Senate Passes Bill For Service Corps WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Kennedy’s proposed National Service Corps, victorious after a hot Senate fight, today...faced a long, cold wait for House action. The administration proposal to set up cspjps , pt, volunteers in this country to carry on the kind of social and technical, service projects done overseas by the U. S. Peace Corps, squeaked through the Senate, 47-44, late Wednesday. The companion House bill, managed by Rep. Frank Thompson, D-N.J.j- still is in the public hearing stage before a labor subcommitte. There was no expectation, especially in view of the narrow victory in the Senate, that any attempt would be made to take the bill to the House floor before the second session of the 88th Congress convenes next January. Thompson said public hearings on the bill would end soon, but he expected to “reshape” the measure before seeking approval by the subcommittee he heads and the parent House Education and Labor Committee. The bill calls for recruitment of up to 1.000 corpsmen during the first year, ending next June 30, eventually rising to an enrollment of 5,000 volunteers. Before the bill was passed the Senate tacked on a two- year limit with a $5 million first year cost ceiling, and a $lO million ceiling the second year. After the two years oftrial Congress would take another look at the program before deciding whether to extend it. The administration plans to use the, corps of volunteers, who would receive subsistence allowances plus a monthly stipend of $75,. to help local and state officials in such projects as aid for the --mentally ill, in migratory worker camps and slum work. sity hospitals. This would prbvide for an excellent teaching facility for chronic chest diseases.” Berg praised the “extreme cleanliness that is apparent in the Board of Health institutions. We have visited other Board of Health institutions throughout the state and find they are exceedingly clean and well kept. It is my considered opinion that one 4 ’of the reasons for this is that they have a distinct housekeeping department responsible for the cleanliness of the institution. It might be well if we considered this in our mental and correctional institutions.”

Organized Crime Mobs Are Hurting

EDITOR’S NOTE: The disclosure that a convicted gangland executioner is “singing” on his former associates has focused new attention on the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, which is directing the war against the underworld. In the following dispatch, the head of the division discusses its progress.) By LOUIS CASSELS United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD—At long last, the good guys are giving the bad guys their lumps in the war against organized crime. “There’s no doubt about it,” said Asst. Atty. Gen. Herbert J. Miller Jr. “The mobs are hurting.” As head of the Justice Department’s Criminal Division, 39-year-old Jack Miller is the federal government’s field general in the fight to smash the power of nationwide crime syndicates. He knows better than others that the fight is very far from won, and he is not indulging in premature victory celebrations. But he also knows that the feds are going after big-time criminals these days with unprecedented vigor and determination; And he says it’s paying off. “We’ve got them on the run,” Miller said in an interview with United Press International. “If we can keep the pressure on for another five or six years, we may break the back of this monster.” < Takes Over Division Miller is an amiable, quitespoken Republican lawyer from Minneapolis. He was in private law practice with & distinguished Washington firm when Atty. Gen. Robert F. Kennedy asked him in early 1961 to take charge of the crminal division. At that time. Miller knew no more about organized crime than the average citizen. He’d read fantastic etories about its multibillion dollar annual take from gambling, narcotics and other rackets, and about the mysterious “Mafia” which was supposed to coordinate the whole enterprize. But he was inclined, as many citizens still are, to treat it as a myth. “But it’s not a myth,” he said with the dogged emphasis of a man who is telling the truth but expects to be disbelieved. “The lurid stories in the press don’t exaggerate — if anything they underestimate—the scope of the underworld operation, the degree to Which it seeks to bribe and corrupt law enforcement officers and public officials, the ruthlessness with which it employs murder and other forms of violence to protect its vast sources of income and silence witnesses.” Even the “myth” about the Mafia has turned out to be true, he said.

land executioner who decided to talk, have given federal officials a Wealth of inside information about the sinister organization whose very existence was previously questioned by some investigators. Valachi not only confirmed its existence: He told just how it operates, and named more than 100 of its top figures. Valachi’s long song was a “terrific break” for the criminal division’s new intelligence unit, Miller said. The intelligence unit was organized two years ago to bring together in one place all of the information about crime and criminals available, to the 26 different federal agencies which have law enforcement responsibilities. The government had never before had such a “CIA for crime,” and Miller has found it “extremely helpful”. The unit now has dossiers on the activities of about 1,200 major racketeering figures, he said. Credits New Laws Also of major importance In the stepped - up fight against crime, Miller said, is the new legislation enacted by Congress in 1961 which makes it a federal crime to send gambling information or paraphernalia across state lines, or to travel in interstate commerce in support of racketeering. These laws have given the Federal Bureau of Investigation a legal license to go after bigtime gambling, which long has been the No. 1 source of income for the crime syndicates. “The FBI is now going after organized crime the way it went after the Communist party,” said Miller. The result has been a sharp drop in gambling activity, he said. In many areas, would - be bettors, are having “real trouble finding a bookie.”
