VFW Convention Opens Thursday INDIANAPOLIS, lunr 22.— (INS) Oll'iclftls pri'dictcd today that more than 15.000 members of th<‘ Indiana Department. Veterans of Foreign Wars, will attend the 2»th annual eoiwontion of the organlaztlon opening in Indianapolis tomorrow. Major issues to be discussed include veterans’ housing and the proposed federal pension for veterans. Anril Morton. Indianapolis, department commander, will pre-

side.

A World War 11 veteran is exported to be elected department commander for the first time. John G. Tinder, Indianapolis attorney and department judge advocate, and Georgi' Inch, Fort Wayne, senior vice-commander and both veterans of the late war are the. only announced candidat-

es so far.

The four-day convention will get off to a colorful start with a parade in downtown Indianapolis beginning at 2 p. m. (CDT). The annual banquet ami ball will follow at the Claypool Hotel Hubert K. Christenberry. president of the Hotel Astor, New York City, will speak at the banquet. Principal speakers during the get-to-gether will includ Clyde V. Lewis, Plattsburg. X Y.. vine-commander in chief of the national VFW. and James id. Hardin, Greeneville, Tenn.. VFW judgfc advocate general. The annual convention of the’ ladies auxiliary will be held concurentiy with the department meetings. Mrs. Rebecca Benning. Terre Haute, is the auxiiary

president.

As the House prepared to be ! gin nine hours of general debate i on a lor.g-range housing bill, Democratic leaders threw their ‘ support behind n compromise ! plan which would reduce the e...,! i of the projected public housing program by almost $100,000,000

i 11 year.

The concession was agreed iTpI on at a Democratic caucus la‘.r yesterday. It brings the House version of housing legislation into line with the trimmed down hill previously approved by the Senate. It appears certain to win the votes of many Democrats and perhaps n lew- Republicans who up to now have been on the fence. Speaker Sam Rayburn, Democratic floor leader John VV. MeC rmack and chairman Brem Spence of the House Banking Committee, were pleased wiiti the prospects. They agreed that the House will approve a "good

bill."

The opposition, however, remained strong. Republican leader Joseph W. Martin, Jr., argued that the nation cannot afford such a broad housing measure at this time.
