Shuey Reports On Bond Sales

A total of $6:1.45000 in "E - ’ Savings bonds have b^en sold fron April 1 to June 4, it was anriounced today by Albert Shuey, Putnam County Chairman. This represents 47 percent of "the county quotas in the U. S Treasury's current Opportunity Savings Bonds Drtvr. JSugene C. Pulliam. state chairman of the savmgs bonds advisory committee, concurrently announced that the state of Indiana has reached 61 per rent of the “E” Bond goal with sales totaling $17,221,670.35. This sum includes the $2,432.662.25 sold j in the most recent accounting period of May 29 to June 4. Mr. Shuey commented that “while considerable prograss has been made, a final push must be made in the remaining weeks of the Drive for Putnam County to successfully make its goal.” He asked for the continued cooperation of the many Minute Men and Women volunteers who are now serving the U. S. Savings Bonds Division in the County. Mr. Fulliam pointed out that “much has been done already to boost the sale of savings bonds but it will take the continued cooperation of all Hoosiers in buying bonds where they work, where they bank, or at their postoffiee, to put Indiana over the top in meeting its “E” bond quota." The drive will continue through June 30. Elwood Couple Among Missing ELWOOD, Ind.. June 18.

June 18 (UP) Administration spokesman in the Senate admitted privately today that they wete virtually licked in their fight to kill the anti-strike injunctions of the Taft-Hai;tley law. This concession was the outgrowth of stronger admissions that Demoeratie leaders lack the votes to force adoption of a compromise amendment to authorize government seizure of plants in labor disputes threatening national health and safety. The seizure amendment to the administration's Taft- Hartley repeal bill will be before th Senate when it resumes its labor debate Monday. Senate Democratic Leader Scott W. Lucas said he hoped to get a vote Monday on It and other proposals for handling emergency strikes. He hoped for a final vote on the bill next week. Unions In Riot In Illinois City FAIRMONT CITY. HI..

hall.

Joseph Petrosky. 35, and Epemianio Rodriguez, 38, members of the CIO Mine, Mill and Smeltt Workers, were in serious conlition at St. Mary's Hospital m East St. Louis, III., as result of gunshot wounds suffered in the fracas.

The senate action came late westerday as public and offick.l nitcry mounted against recent jnpunished raids by masked gangs. Veterans groups in Birminglatn, angered by the latest incilent in which hooded men flogged a former sailor, moved to form their own “committee igainst crime and violence.” Passed by a 23 to 3 vote in lie senate, the measure prohibitng public masking now goes -o the state house of representatives. If the House approves thbill when it reconvenes next veek. Alabama will became thirst southern state to make i legislative move toward wlp ng out hooded organizations. A similar bill was defeated ;:i the Georgia House of Repre sentatives early this year, and io Florida the State Legislature (ailed to act on Gov. Fuller Wai ren’s call for an anti-masking law. The Alabama measure, intro duced by Sen. Henry Mize of Tuscaloosa, had been in the Sen ate hopper for weeks and had been shoved down near the bottom of a crowded special calwi. dar.

Kittenball league snouid prove amusing if not interesting to fans. Many great performers of past years are coming out of retirement for a bit of exercise, if not in an effort to make a comeback.

they will demonstrate.

Ben Cannon who will head the j Cannon Clowns has revealed only | a small portion of the talent he has employed for the summer months. In an effort to exhibit j what the well dressed player I should wear, Ben says he will j clothe his "stars" in summer straws, loud shirts of variable colors, and no doubt knickers Just a few of his key players that slipped out are Ed Coffman on short, Reverend Walrond or. the hill, Ted Brown on 1st, Walter Cox on the hot corner. Other players holding secret practice to win the other positions, as catcher, 2nd and the outfield are Fred Sr.ivoly, Joe Todd, Paul Jones. Tom Carney, Hugh Lawrence, Francis Hamilton and MaynarJ Shonkwiler. Ben says he has a few more players under cover but as yet all terms involved in the contracts have not been

agreed upon by all parties.
