Urges National Unity On Democrat Party WASHINGTON (UPD—President Johnson wants the Democratic party to campaign this year on a national unity platform offerihg “a better deal” to everyone. He offered that prescription Thursday night in a pep talk to more than 5,000 Democrats at a SIOO,-a-plate dinner to raise money for the party’s senatorial and congressional campaign committees. The President, a rising political figure during the Roosevelt administration’s New Deal and the Truman administration’s Fair Deal, seems fond of “a better deal” as a slogan for his own program. He used the term in his television interview last Sunday and twice Thursday night. But he put more stress on his call for Democrats to approach the 1964 national election with “a unifying campaign.” Johnson expressed the belief that the assassination of President Kennedy in November had “ignited a new flame of unity and seriousness and soberness of purposes” in the United States. He asked his party to fan the flame. He also asked the Democrats to reach for the support of independent voters and of “those who have grown weary of the divisions and the diversions of t|ie other party.” The President described the Democrats as “a unifying party which knows no color, knows no creed, knows no North, no South, no East, no West.” 143 Pints Os Blood s Collected At Berne One hundred and 43 pints of blood, well above the 125 quota, were donated to the regional Red Cross bloodmobile unit on its recent visit to Berne.

GOV. WELSH (Continued from Page One) other candidate from capturing them. Core said he felt Johnson came more nearly to representing the Hoosier views than Wallace did.

Births At the Adams county memorial hospital: Darrell and Kathleen Grile Hendricks, route 1, Monroe, are the parents of a seven pound, eight ounce boy, born at 11:49 p.m. Thursday. Spring Is Greeted By Dismal Weather By United Press International Spring groped her way into Indiana today through a dismal curtain of snow, rain, drizzle, haze and fog. Balmy, sunny* weather that goes with the new season was conspicuous by its absence as winter showed no signs of givup graceiuby. In the hours just after dawn, it was snowing at Fort Wayne, Lafayette, Kokomo, Bloomington, Muncie and other points, and a one-inch blanket lay across the countryside at Lafayette and South Bend with traces elsewhere. Overnight precipitation deposited ranged from a feiw hundredths of an inch to nearly half an inch of new rain on the state, with the heavier amounts in the flood-soggy south and the lesser amounts upstate. It was disappointing to winterweary and spring-loving Hoosiers that the forecasts and outlooks for the next five days indicated ho balmy temperatures waiting in the wings for an opportunity to waft their way onto the stage. The five-day outlook called for temperatures averaging 5 to 8 degrees below normal, with frequent variations from day to day into the middle of next week. Furthermore, pr e c ipitation will harass the area where far more than enough rain already has fallen this month to last for quite a spell. As much as an inch of rain is due in the central and south portions today and during the weekend and again early next week, while upstate areas will get less than half an inch. Temperatures Thursday ranged into the 40s throughout the state. The mercury dropped into the upper 20s and low 30s over most of the state early this morning. They were expected to climb to peaks ranging from the 30s to the 40s today, drop to lows ranging from the 20s to 35 tonight, and go no higher than the 30s Saturday. Rain was expected today and tonight, with snow flurries likely Saturday and again Sunday in the far north.
