Khrushchev spoke s at a ship launching ceremony after being flown here under the mightiest security Umbrella ever given a flight in Sweden. He was on his third day of a tour of Sweden. “I am not revealing any big military secret when I say that we have freed our shipyards from having to build large military ships, such as battleships or cruisers, as such ships do not constitute any particular military power in the event that a nuclear war should be loosed by an aggressor,” he said. The premier seemed unbothered by the massive security arrangements around him. Exactly how many Air Farce jet fighters escorted Khrushchev’s chartered SAS Caravelle during the 300-mile, 49-minute flight was not disclosed, but the number was said t be unprecedented. Security - worried Swedes left nothing to chance as Khrushchev moved from Stockholm to Goteborg for a one-day visit. His departure from Stockholm’s Haga Palace for the short ride to Bromma Airport was treated like a military operation with no advance word on his time of departure or route of travel. Even as security forces whisked Khrushchev out of Stockholm it was announced police there were seeking a male mental patient who escaped from a hospital Tuesday. Sten Hammargren, chief of the Stockholm police investigation department, denied reports the man had voiced threats against Khrushchev.

(UPD — Members of a secret teen-age fraternity professing devotion to Satan were blamed today for L four incidents of vandalism at churches in Norman during the past nine months. Police said the boys were members of a secret fraternity called the “Covenant of the 73rd Demon.” They said members were dedicated to vandalizing local churches to prove their loyalty to the devil.

Hie vandalism, Police Chief Sid Wilson said, was a part of the group’s ritual whereby the boys “released their souls to the prince of darkness.” The ritual apparently demanded that all emblems of God be destroyed or ridiculed. The incidents included turning crosses upside down, ripping Bibles apart, spilling baptismal waters and generally ransacking the church premises. Officers said some property also was stolen. Four boys, 16 and 17 years old, were arrested and later released on $3,000 bonds each. They Were identified as Richard Holland Jr., Jack Johnson, Dennis Lee Frank and Royce Lee Jennings, none of whom has criminal records.

No Major Change In Birth Control Stand VATICAN CITY - (UPD—High Vatican circles predicted today that no major changes will be .made in the Roman Catholic Church’s ban on contraceptives including the new oral polls. But they said that minor changes are possible. Pope Paul VI, in a major speech Tuesday, left the door open for possible changes in the church’s viewpoint. He said the “extremely complex and delicate problem” is under study. But he warned that, until an official decision is reached, the ban on contraceptives still stands. “ Vatican circles said indications are that no major changes will come out of the study—“and certainly not the general use of contraceptives for birth control.” As to minor changes, they said that undoubtedly the “main point” to be decided on would be whether the new oral pills could be used in serious cases, for example, if the wife would be in real physical danger of death if she became pregnant. The late Pope Pius XII said in 1958 that the oral pills eould be used dhly if a doctor prescribed them for ferine ailments and only if there was no intention of preventing pregnancy, thought Ihe treatment might make the wife temporarily sterile. Pope Paul, in Tuesday’s speech to a group of 26 cardinals in the Vatican library,, declared that though birth control is under study, “meanwhile we frankly say that so far we have no Sufficient motive to consider surpassed and therefore not compulsory the rules given out by Pope Pius -XII in this regard. “They, therefore, must be considered valid, at least until that time when wg conscientiously will feel obliged ..to change them.”

$36.2 Million Is Asked For Mental Health INDIANAPOLIS (UPD I— The Indiana Mental Health Department asked the State Budget Committee Tuesday for $36.2 for construction in the «next biennium but said that that would not meet present needs. Dr. Stewart T. Ginsberg, mental health commissioner, told a news conference following presentation of the proposed budget for the 1965-67 biiennium that the money would provide 1,132 beds and replace facilities equal to 1,172 beds. “More than 1.300 children and adults currently are awaiting admission, to overcrowded institutions for the retarded,” he said. “Past legislatures have not appropriated funds to enable us to meet our building needs. and, as a result, large waiting lists have increased and some facilities have deteriorate seriously.” The proposed construction budget is about three times as much as the $12.7 million which the 1963 Legislature provided in answer to a request for $25.7 million in construction funds. The department’s operating budget, which will not be ready until August, also is expected to ask for a large increase over the current appropriations. “We want to increase family care, community service and .after-care,” Ginsberg, said. , “With the emphasis on treatment and rehabilitation rather than custody, we can prevent patients from slipping into longterm qustodial care.” He said this would require an increase in the present level of 6,600 employes for the department and its institutions. He said the amount of the increase will be determined by the time the operating budget is prepared,.. When one reporter suggested that the department’s total budget for the next biennium might reach $l2O million, Ginsberg quickly said, “Tbat’s your guess, not mine.” The largest, construction request was $7.1 million for the Fort Wayne State School, including facilities to provide 600 beds .at the f new Parker location outside Fort Wayne. About 200 beds would be added at Muscatatuck State School where the total request was $2.6 million. ’ The budget also million for a new 100-bed hospital for the mentally retarded at Indianapolis and $3 million for two additional treatment centers for disturbed children such aS the one now being planned at Evansville. Ginsberg said the location of the two additional centers would be determined by need but that probably one would be located here.

Two Brothers Plead a. Guilty To Robbery INDIANAPOLIS yiUPI) — A pre-sentence investigation was being conducted today for two Camby brothers who pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court here Tuesday to bank robbery charges. Judge S. Hugh Dillin ordered the investigation after receiving the pleas from Radine Meador, 31, and his brother, Joe Wayne Meador, 25. They were charged with the $30,000 holdup May 27 of the Cumberland branch of American Fletcher National Bank & Trust Co. FBI agents recovered about $22,000 of the loot buried in lard cans on farms in Kentucky and Tennessee but have found no trace of the rest of the money. During the holdup, the brothers took with them the motion picture cameras installed in the bank to help catch holdup men but they were identified through pictures of them taken on previous visits to the bank. Rejects Pollution Controls On Autos WASHINGTON (UPD — The automobile industry today rejected a suggestion that it install ' air pollution controls on all models. George A. Delaney, smog consultant for the Automobile Manufacturers Association, said the industry will be able to meet only its commitment to California by the middle of 1908. “The very scope and amount of work remaining to be ddne make it premature to discuss wider application of these engine Resign concepts,” Delaney said. Hie proposal to add exhaust emissions control methods to all cars was made by Chairman Edmund S. Muskie, D-Maine, as the Senate subcommittee on air and water pollution continued its hearings. The construction budget also requested $2.6 million for Norman “Beatty Hospital, $462,148 for Laßue Carter Hospital, $3.5 million for Central State Hospital, $2.2 million for Evansville State Hospital, $2.1 million for Logansport, $2 million for Madison, $4.4. million for New Castle, $2.5 million for Richmond and $539,652 for Northern Indiana Children’s Hospital. Ginsberg noted that the 11 institutions had asked for a total of $48.5 million for construction and repair and that his staff had cut this to $36.2 million. Governor Welsh and the Budget Committee may make further cuts before presenting recommendations to the legislature. ■R t "—!■. '■ Trade in a gixxi town — Decatur.
