On Bicycle Safety In spite of the lack of official encouragement, we have almoat made it through another season of bicycle riding without a death, although it is certainly no thanks to our local ordinances, enforcement, or parent* admonition. Cyclers still callously regard the street as their own domain, riding three abreast, riding double with only one seat, carrying packages and bundles that make a safe stop impossible, riding with no lights at night, etc. Dozens of people — parents as well as pedestrians and drivers — have stopped us and stated that they would favor enforcement of a bicycle ordinance that would place some responsibility on the bicycle drivers. In most neighboring cities, a licensing method is used. Each spring, as good weather approaches, the bicycles are Inspected. They must have good brakes, lights, etc. The bicyclers must know, and practice, bicycle safety. They are licensed for a small fee, and if anyone is caught violating good bicycle safety, the license may be revoked, and the reckless rider put on foot. Some good rules to obey are: Ride single file, within three feet of the curb. Never ride in congested or downtown areas — walk your bicycle through such areas. Bicycles are vehicles. Ride them on the streets only, never on the sidewalk. Always ride with traffic, never facing it. Obey all motor vehicle laws. Never ride from sidewalk into the street, even at corners. " Always use a light at night, and be sure you have a reflector on the rear of your bike. Keep your brake In good shape. Never ride double. Unfortunately, the 4aw at present places the burden of enforcement on the parents, who can be found delinquent themselves if they do not keep their minor children under control. This is unfortunate, not because parents should not control their children — they should — but because they do not. Parents are so busy entertaining themselves that they have no time to regulate their youngsters for the good of society as a whole. Editorial written by Dick Heller

Sen. Hartke Bill Is Lauded By UE

Ver;ion B. (Speck. l Hebble, bus!--ncss agent for UE Local J 24, and* Fred Dellinger, recording secrc-2 tary of the local UE group havtg asked the Daily Democrat to pub-g llsh the following story written by» C. W. Fowler arid printed in the g "UE News," official publication of the United Electrical, Radio A? Mach: le Workers of America. g The rtory in the UE News was" headlined “Hartke Offers Bdl To~ Insure Workers’ Pensions,” and isi as follows: “Loss of pensions through plantsf closing, mergers, bankruptcies “ and runaways is an increasinghardship on working people that would be prevented by a national insurance plan proposed in a bill - offered In Congress by Senator Vance Hartke, (R.-lnd.) 'The bill (S 3071) would insured payment of pensions ly due to employees in the same* way that savings bank accounts-f have been insured for decadesZ under the Federal Deposit Insur-i~ ance system set up during the*FDR New Deal." "The Insurance plan would notjg cost the U. S. taxpayer anything, £ since it would be financed by ai small assessment on the amounts paid into pension funds. In turn, the pension funds would b"j guaranteed against loss to present or future pensioners. Companies j would also get tax deduction.- for ■ premiums paid into the fund. Studebaker Runaway ... "In offering the bill, Sen. Hat- - 3 tke cited the brutal hardships inflicted on thousands of loin' service South Bend automobile workers who lost pension rights when the Studebaker plant there closed down and ran away to Canada, where Unifed Auto Workers rates • are substantially lower than here. "In the Studebaker runaway what money is in the pension funds goes by contract first to the already retired workers, leaving little or nothing for thousands of people in their 40’s or 50’3 .who still have years to go before retirement age." "A similar tragedy took place . on a smaller scale in New York recently, where a bakery chain employing over 1,000 workers shut up shop, leaving long servici E workers without pensions or pros M pcctive pensions that they thought 5 were going to help them retirement and old age. "Drastic cuts in pensiorts — sometimes as much as 69% — of retired coal miners in the Appalachian areas are another example of the inadequacy of uninsured pension plans. Lack of Funding “Another source of deprivation and added misery for retired or discarded workers is the fact that many pension plans simply do not have* enough funds to pay money Johnson - Humphrey Long - Time Buddies By ALVIN SPIVAK United Press International WASHINGTON (UPD—Backstairs at the White House: The Johnson-Humphrey visit at the President’s Texas ranch last weekend established something new in relationships of political running mates. They are buddies as „ well as partners. Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey’s link with the Chief Executive transcends, it seems, the mere bonds of leading the Democratic ticket. They are both at home on the farm, on the speaker’s platform, and with each other. In recent memory, at least, there lias not been this much personal closeness between a presidential nominee and his vice presidential running mate. On the Republican side this year, presidential candidate Barry M. Goldwater and. vice presidential contender William E. Miller are friends of some years’ standing. But their togetherness does not have the reminiscent of Johnson’s and Humphrey’s It was back in the early days of Johnson's Democratic leaden... ship in the Senate that the in-the-ekib Texap groomed the out-of-the-chib Minnesotan toward social acceptance in the en-bred world of Senate maneuverings. Humphrey, as a Senate freshman in 1946. had climbed on the toes of the club's elite by attacking Sen Harry F. Byrd. D-Va., and Johnson—after becoming Democratic leader in 1953—decided tar pull Humphrey back into the fold. He convinced Humphrey that ■while the liberal causes he espoused had much merit, it was wise now and again to compromise — and to accept •what could be gotten, rather than lose all. With Johnson’s backing, Humphrey went on to win favor even from Byrd, and to become Senate Democratic whip. •9 . '

■ due to such workers when the £ plant or the company folds. 1 "This is what happened at South j Bend, Sen. Hartke points out, s where the pension fund was only | sufficient to take care of ex-em- : ployes 65 or over, leaving workers i in their 50’s with more than 33 i years of pension credits who will r never receive a single dollar in ; pension benefits even though they hav*e met the requirements of vesting established by the plan. , "As it is now, the thousands of i Studebaker workers who were de- | prived of their livelihood by the ■ corporation's runaway to Canaria . have little or no hope beyond the meager bread of public relief and what small Social Security bene- . fits they may be qualified to re- _ cel vc. "A displaced auto worker (or any other worker' )in his 40’s or j 50’s has just about no hope of , reemployment at anything like h>s J previous rates, and practically no ; prospect of a job at all in a city g that has been blitzed by plant 5 runaways as South Bend, Ind., j Chester, Pa., or any of a hundred others. - "The fact that he is unemploy- ; cd at a lower rate and for short- ; er periods of time, with periods of “ unemployment, drags down h>s "Social Security credits and therefore reduces his old age benefits j when he becomes eligible at 65 "In this situation the displaced ■3 worker who has, been deprived of his earned pension rights and •x- - pectations has nothing but dependency or destitution facing him and his family. The despair facing ■ older workers Is further aggravnt- • cd by the face that those receiving -old age benefits, meager as they are, under Social Security, are no', permitted to earn more than $1,200 a year without benefit deduction.;. .. “Also, a trend is growing m Industrial states to limit alt>gethcr or deny unemployment compensation to retired workers, and to cut UC off after only one round to the chronically unemployed. This situation bears es- . pecially heavily or the elderly and the chronically unemployed in Pennsylvania, where the ’moderate’- Republican Gov. Wm.

S L ilxir 2 estimates that nearly 500 |x?nsion plans a y<'ar fail to live up expectations and vested rights that workers have counted, nn.

As it stands now, the long servic > worker’, pension rights and expectation will go with them. 0 Would Prevent Loss “Senator Hartke’s insurance proposal would prevent the immediate loss of pension rights as the loss of savings is now prevented through insurance, or the loss of homes through FHA insured mortgage loans. Not even the most" reactionary Goldwateritc. in Congress or outside, could truthfully ( .claim that pension insurimce. would cost the faxpiiyer one penny. although undoubtedly the cl ilm will be made. “These same people, however fought like demons against the savings account and mor’gage systems, just as they fought unemployment compensation an d Social Security when they were introduced. Tlii-y will have powerful and well-heeled private business lobbies to finance their outcries of ‘socialism,’ just as they have such support from the AMA, the drug manufacturers and the insurance companies to finance the blocking the medical aid to the elderly through Social Security Medicare. "Privately owned•indunstrv n, the U. S.

Ben Davis Is Top Band At Indiana Fair INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Beatles may get the lion’s share of the attention but there are plenty of other attractions on today’s program for the Indiana State Fair. The annual “Youth Achievement Day” program marked the -. windup of the major 4-H and other youth group competitions with the spotlight shifting to adult competitors Friday for the remainder of the 12-day ex|K>sition. In Wednesday’s biggest event for the young people Ben Davis of Marion County won Its third state Fair marching band contest in five years by the slim , margin of one point over defending champion Madison Heights of Anderson. And by winning, Ben Davis kept the huge trophy within the tight little clique of four schools which dominated the competition for the past eight years. ’” Since 1957, the championship has gone to either Ben Davis, Madison Heights, Vincennes or Anderson. And they were the first four finishers, in that order, this year. Ben Davis also won the trophy in 1960 and 1961, Vincennes won in 1955 as well as in 1962 and Anderson won three straight from 1957 through 1959. In the last 10 years, only Franklin in 1956 has broken the four-school barrier. .. . . Ben- Davis’ snappy, 135-mem-ber band breezed past the grandstand in purple and white uniforms, playing a special arrangement of four Spanish songs called "Espanol Espectaculo.” Anderson Highlands, always a threat for the title, finished fifth behind the leaders with Southport, Alexandra, Richmond. Crown Point and Pendleton rounding out the top 10. Others among the top 25 bands wore Noblesville. Beech Grove, Elwood. Greenfield, . Worthington; West Vigo, Pike Twp. of Marion County and Lebanon all tied; Jasper and Columbus tied for 19th; .followed by Knightstown. West. Lafayefte, Prince- * ton. Fort Branch, Zionsville. The band contest, which drew more than 9,000 musicians and thousands of spectators, was the biggest event of the fair’s fifth day. Ben Davis director Hall Meurer, 39. called the victory a “big surprise” although the band won a Governor’s Cup contest last month in Florida. Head majorette Duffy Taylor, 17, said she was "too shocked to speak.” Drum major»Mike Fortune, 17, spoke excitedly at a news conference after the victory was announced. But he collapsed unconscious in the halLof Uxb press building a moment later. He was released after treatment at the fairgrounds hospital. In major 4-H events Wednesday, Bob Death. Jr., Veeders* burg, was named grand champion dairy showman; Kyle Marshall, R. R. 1, North Manchester, was named grand champion shwwwwHs; and Connie Hasty, Columbia City, received the grand champion sheep showmanship award.

Cops Sneak Beatles Into State Capital

INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—Britain’s shaggy - haired Beatles sneaked into town under the cover of darkness early today and were met at the airport by more police officers than teenage fans. The singers landed under security conditions so tight that reporters had to go through three or four police checks to reach the isolated part of the airport where the plane touched down. About 100 teen-age girls had gathered in small groups at the airport, but were kept in the dark as to exactly where their idols would land. Most of them didn’t even get a chance to cheer. The Beatles were quickly whisked away to the Speedway Motel, owned by millionaire Tony Hulman, who also owns the Indianapolis 500 Motor Speedway. There the . singers encountered about 75 giggling but orderly fans. One teen-age boy dressed up as a waiter and walked past police lines with a tray and glasses in hand, hoping to enter the Beatles’ room. But the boy walked into the wrong room by mistake and was nabbed by police who took him downtown and released him. The Beatles are scheduled to give two performances at the Indiana State Fair, one at 5 p.m. today in the Coliseum, which already is a sellout, and the second at 9:30 p.m. across the street at the Grandstand. Some tickets were still available for that .performance. Elaborate security plans were mapped after Hoosier police learned of the problems faced by law enforcement brethren in other cities where the ' Beatles appeared earlier on their tour of 23 cities. At Philadelphia, where the singers appeared at Convention Hall Wednesday night, police were confronted with so many screaming girls that plans of the entertainers to stay at a downtown hotel were cancelled.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 3. 1964

A weary male reporter complained that "the lovely little lassies wouldn’t believe the hotel management after they were told the reservations had been canceled. They just hung around and screamed.” Hoosier police hoped to confine the crowd* around The Beatles to the 236-acre fairgrounds and avoid any concentrations at other sites fey keeping secret arrival and departure times and place of lodging. As many as 32,000 fans are expected to pay either $4 or 85 for tickets to the two performances. The four singers will receive about 3100,000 for the two performances. •
