Hearings Move To Lafayette INDIANAPOLIS. April 5. (UP) A nation-touring congressional subcommittee moved its hearings to I^afayette today, convinced small business men in this area see little need for many federal controls and regulations induced hy u '•limited” national emergency. One by one, about three dozen owners and operators of central and southern Indiana firms told a House Small Business subcommittee yesterday government rulings were crippling and in some cases, threatening to destroy I heir operations. Television and radio coverage injected a ‘‘ cr jrne show” appeal into the hearing. It attracted thousands of spectators to TV sots or to Butler University’s Atherton Center, where the daylong event was conducted by Rep. Joe L. Evins, D.. Tenn. The business men testified that they couldn't obtain enough raw materials, that federal orders were “confusing” and in "mass disorder,” that the recall policy of reserve officers hampered operations, and that black markets in metals flourished throughout the industry. Two late afternoon witnesses gave specific examples of black market dealings in scarce items. Charles Ogle, president of Indianapolis' Electronic Rectifiers, Ins., said selenium “which used to sell at about $1 a pound now is offered at from $6 to $15,” Marshall Abrams of the Building Congress of Indiana said aluminum prices from some sup-
pliers jumped from $38 to $58. "You can get whatever materials you want if you pay the price,” Abiams said. Troops Will Get Alert For Europe WASHINGTON, April 5. - (UPi American troops will be alerted within a few days for transportation to Europe and the Atlantic Pact Army, military sources said today.

The divisions earmarked for Europe are the 4th Infantry division now at Ft. Benning, Ga . ami the 2nd Armored at F. Hood, Tex. Those are regular army divisions. They will he followed later by two as yet unidentified National Guard divisions now in training. Two divisions already are in
Europe.
Military and diplomatic oi'-ficals--including Eisenhower - have made dear they are anxious to rush troops to Europ- . After months of bitter Senatedebate here, they believe that only the sight of more American GI’s sM’ing down the Champs Elysees in Paris and on station hi Germany Mil I reassure western Europe that the United State means business on the pact army project.
