I & M And Illinois Power Make Tieup Two Midwestern utilities — Indiana & Michigan Electric company and Illinois Power company — Tuesday announced that a major new 345,000-volt transmission interconnection had been placed in operation between the two power systems. The announcement was made jointly by R. E. Doyle, Jr., vice president and general manager of I&M. in Fort Wayne, and Allen Van Wyek, president of Illinois Power, in Decatur, 111. The $4-milion, 32-mile power line was announced in November, 1961, following the signing of a 50-year power exchange agreement by the two companies. Construction was started in 1962. For Indiana & Michigan Electric company, the interconnec-

tion is that company's fourth tie with neighboring utilities at 345,000 volts, not including interconnections with its sister companies in the seven-state American Electric Power system. For the AEP system, already the "world's most interconnected power system," the new tie is its 38th with 18 different utilities. For Illinois Power company, the new line is the first step in a 250-mile, 345,000-volt transmission network to be completed across Illinois by 1970 by three companies making up the IllinoisMissouri power pool. These companies, in addition to Illinois Power, are Central Illinois Public Service company and Union Electric company of St. Louis. The new line connects a new Central Illinois Public Service substation near Sidney in Champaign County, 111., and a new I&M substation near Cayuga in

Vermillion County, Ind. The high-voltage interconnection, another link in a vast electric power grid tying together the investor - owned electric utilities bptween the Atlantic and the Rockies, will provide the two companies with two immediate benefits: added protection to their customers against service interruptions during emergency periods and the means for interchange of energy between the two systems. At the new lines’ western terminal, it will tie in with an existing 138,000-volt transmission loop emanating in Bloomington, 111. At its eastern end, it will tie in with an I&M 345,000-volt line connecting that company’s new Breed plant near Sullivan, Ind., with its service area near South Bend.

U.S. Firm On Opposing Hike InU.N. Dues UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (UPD — The United States stood firm today against any Sov i e t-inspired attempts to raise the U.S. dues in the United Nations and cut those of the Russians. American officials were drafting a strong statement of its position on the 1964 regular budget estimates. Informed sources said the statement would refute < a Soviet demand that the U.S. assessment should be raised and the Soviet assessriient lowered. Committee action dominated the U.N. scene with the General Assembly in recess following the policy speech Tuesday by Yugoslav President Tito. The main political committee had 10 delegations listed to speak on the question of nuclear testing, and the budgetary committee continued its debate on the 1964 estimates. Privately some diplomats expressed concern that Tito canceled a 750-invitation reception scheduled for Thursday night at the Waldorf Astoria. The announced reason for the cancellation was the alleged lack of police protection for the Communist leader who has been the target of several incidents be dissident Yugislav emigrents in New York. The United States is not expected to speak on the budget estimates until later in the week, but American officials were dismayed at the position taken by Russia in the budgetary committee Tuesday. Soviet representative Alexei Roschin criticized the U.N. financial administration, the peace-keeping operations and the scale of assessments for members. -■ He claimed that the U.S. assessment of 32.02 per cent should be raised on the basis of "ability to pay.” At the same time, he said, the Soviet assessment of 11.57 per cent should be reduced because of Moscow’s difficulty in obtaining foreign currencies and the dislocation of its economy as a result of World War 11.

He was a frequent player at the Decatur Golf course and well-known to most « ' Decatur golfers. i He is survived by his wife, I Eloise, and two sons, John of. Grove City and Robert at home.

The announcement said the attack “avenged” the kidnaping of 19 exiles in Cayo Anguila, Bahama waters last Aug. 8. Three of the 19 have since been executed by Castro firing squads, according to exile reports reaching here last week. The Mambises group has not — previously indicated that it has forces operating inside Cuba. Only four days ago, an announcement released here by the group from Central America warned that it was about to “carry the war to our enemy Fidel Castro until he is destroyed and Cuba is freed forever from foreign tyranny and communism.”
