Plead Not Guilty To Three Charges SOUTH BEND, Ind. (UPU— Pleas of innocent to charges of kidnap, rape and robbery were entered Monday by two young -itinerant tomato pickers accused oi an attack on an Ohio couple along U.S. 20 near New Carlisle recently. David Flournoy, 21, and Myron E. Tayborn, 18, Cairo, 111., were held in $25,000 bond which St. Joseph Superior Judge Pro Tern Richard C. Kaczimarek declined to reduce despite a plea by the public defender. Victor L. McFadden asked the court to slash bond to $5,000 for each defendant in view of the men’s “financial position.” But Prosecutor Phillip Potts “violently opposed” a reduction on grounds these are three of the state’s most serious charges.” Flournoy and Taybom were charged with attacking Donald E. Ingram, 30, and Miss Mary H. Taylor, 22, Cleveland, as they slept in 4 a car along a highway. A third alleged member of the group drowned in the Little Calumet River while trying to swim to freedom when police stopped nearGary Ingram’s car which the men had stolen. Observation Post Exchange Foreseen GENEVA (UPI) — The Soviet Union expects agreement soon on an East-West exchange of observation posts to help guard against surprise attack, authoritative Soviet sources said today. The well-placed informants said Moscow considers such an exchange the “best next step” after the limited test ban treaty. They also indicated Moscow is almost ready to drop its demand that such spots be linked to troop reductions in East and West Germany — the only remainihg-ma-jor differences between the United States and Soviet positions on the issue. The informants gave these two reasons why Moscow now believes an observation post exchange will be the next step: —American disarmament negotiator Charles C. Stelle last Friday dropped previous United States proposals that the post be tied in with mobile inspection teams and aerial observation. —Stationary ground observation posts could not be used by either side for espionage activities. Young Soldier Held In Fatal Stabbing FALLS CHURCH, Va„ (UPI) - Pfc.’ SteVen Schinbeckler, 19, Greenfield, Ind., was changed with murder Monday in the fatal stabbing of a 20-year-old Georgetown University student.

Sen. Goldwater Stays Out Os Any Primaries WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen. Barry Goldwater, R-Ariz., has said he would be “inclined” to stay out of state primary races, if he decided to make a bid for the GOP presidential nomination. However, Goldwater said he was not trying to capture the Republican nomination. “At this moment I have no intention” of running, Goldwater said. In a question and answer session before a group of college students, Goldwater said he liked his Senate job. The real challenge of government was in Congress where the will of the people could best be expressed, Goldwater said. Favors Demonstration Queried on the civil rights march scheduled for Aug. 28, Goldwater said he was in favor of the Negro demonstration. “I think it’s wise if they can control it,’’ he said. He noted that there have been other marches on the capital, admitting, however, that some had been "disastrous.” But he said the Negro demonstration was going to be controlled by "intelligent, dedicated Negroes who are determined it will not get out of hand.” One of the students asked Goldwater if he had any objections to plans for the marchers to use facilities in government buildings, including cots to be set up at Ft. Mver. "No.” Goldwater said, "these people are taxpayers.” Many GOP Southern Votes The Arizona lawmaker also said he didn't think it was necessary for Republicans to appeal to the "segregation vote” in the South to win elections, and he predicted the Republican party would get six million votes from the Southern states in 1964. On the subject of communism, Goldwater said he did not believe the nation could co-exist with a philosophy that is dedicated to

its destruction. On the progressive income tax, Goldwater said: “I see no fairness in taxing success .... it denies incentive and destroys ambition.” Asked for his opinion of the John Birch Society, Goldwater said he could not condemn a, group working within constitutional grounds. He said he had seen no proof that the society had done anything wrong. Driver's License Ordered Suspended The driver’s license of Benson Eugene South, 734 Spencer St., has been suspended for a period of six months, according to the latest driver suspension list issued by the bureau of motor vehicles.
