(UPD— A Save the Dunes C o u n ci 1 spokesman charged today that House Minority Leader Charles Halleck has done “incalculable damage" to Indiana’s national park and deep-water port projects “by opposing what every other official in our state recognizes as a wide mid-ground.” “There will be no port if there is not a pork,” said Thomas Dustin. “If Halleck wants a fight, we’re loaded and ready for him.” Halleck, dean of Indiana’s congressional delegation, favors economic expansion over conservation in the Dunes area. But Dustin said council officials “can and will prove .. . that spending tens of millions (of dollars) for a two-steel company port, while denying grave recreational needs, is pure folly.” • \ Dustin also said he received a letter from the White House Thursday reaffirming President Johnson’s direct support for the national park. “There is a good chance that, the full Senate will act on it soon,” said the letter signed by Lee C. White, a presidential aide. The Senate Interior Committee approved the park Aug. 4, but opposition by Halleck has stymied action in the House. Dustin praised Rep. J. Edward Roush, D-Ind., for his “gallant effort” to bring the compromise package “to legislative reality this year.”

Our daughter eloped (with our approval), and now we’d like to know if we may properly send formal announcements, or just tell our friends? A. Either way, it’s up to you. If you do mail announcements, state the place of the marriage and the date. If a civil ceremony was performed, only the name of the city or town appears. If the couple was married in church, it is optional whether the name of the church is mentioned or not. Q. How should a daughter-in-law refer to her husband’s mother when introducing her to friends? A. As “My mother-in-law,” “My husband’s mother,” or to very good friends as, "Bill’s mother.” Q. Is it proper for a divorcee to insert the announcement of her second engagement in the newspaper? A. While there is no rule against this, usually the second engagement is announced more quietly—just by letting relatives and friends know shortly, before the wedding. Q. When I have already contributed to a wedding gift given by the office force to one of the employees, and then later I receive an individual invitation to the wedding, am I supposed to counter with another gift from me alone? A. No; your “obligation” has been met through your contribution to the office gift.

Shortage Os Steel Slows Construction INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Despite forecasts of a record steel production in 1964. some Indiana building construction projects have been slowed down by a shortage of the metal. Industry spokesmen said today that heavy and persistent demands of Hoosier contractors in the midst of a big building boom have made It difficult for suppliers to avoid delays in delivery of structural steel. The situation is "by no means critical," according to John R. Fenstermaker, vice president of sales for the Hugh J. Baker Co., Indianapolis structural steel fabricators. “It's just a change from the situation of the past five years," he said. "It’s nothing like the early 1950’5." Nevertheless, contractors rushing to complete heavy activity in .school, commercial, industrial and bridge construction projects are hurting. Gene Brown of the Everett I. Brown Co., Indianapolis architects and engineers specializing in school buildings, said some contractors are pressuring suppliers for earlier deliveries and workmen are standing around with nothing to do because steel has not arrived. The situation postponed completion of building projects. “The delays are in terms of weeks, not months," Tensermaker said. “With the coming of fall and normal reductions in construction activity, we’ll get back on schedule.” Fenster maker said that in addition to heavy activity in school and commercial construction, a great industrial expansion program is in progress and a record-breaking highway construction program is gobbling up large quantities of steel for bridges. Employment in the steel industry in Indiana is within a fraction of the reCord high of 67,500 set in mid-1959, according to Indiana University business experts. Steel prod uctio n climbed 8.9 per cent from April to May and another 1.4 per cent from May to June. But construction activity climbed, too, by 17.6 per cent between June, 1963, and the corresponding month this year. Fellowship Grant To David A. Owens David A. Owens,, son of Mr. and Mrs. Russell E. Owens, North Fifth street, has received a fellowship grant to complete his doctor’s degree from the University of Florida at Gainesville Fla.
