WASHINGTON UPI—If line 8 turns out to be larger than line 9 on that familiar 1040A, brother, you’ve only got until midnight Friday to get up the difference. Federal tax returns on income earned during 1965—with checks, if there’s a balance owed—must be postmarked by midnight, April 15. Late filers are penalized 5 per cent a month on their unpaid taxes. This year, as every year, the government expects a last minute avalanche between now and the deadline. As of last week one out of every three persons expected to file had not yet sent in a return. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) expects this year’s i turns to reach 66 million. Although 20 million or so Americans had yet to file at the start of this week, returns were still running ahead of last year. And so were refunds. Nearly 25 million checks totaling more than 83 billion had been mailed to taxpayers, compared to 23 million a year ago. Officials credited IRS computers with speeding up refunds, although their more important function is to check returns for accuracy and honesty. Every year, more returns are fed into the IRS master electronic file in Martinsburg, W. Va.—“The Martinsburg Monster”—which contains a taxpayer’s complete tax history. Board Selects Reyce Successor INDIANAPOLIS UPI —The Indiana State Fair Board has appointed Roscoe C. Stangiand, 61, retired Elkhart County agricultural agent from Goshen, as secretary-manager of the fair. Stangiand succeeds Hal Royce, who died in February. He will take over the responsibilities around May 1. Since Rayce’s death, a board president C. Melvin Young of Greentown has been acting secretary-man-ager. Stangiand has been a member of the board since 1963. Red People Sear MOSCOW UPI — The Soviet Union has a population of 232 million, an increase of 85 million persons in the last 40 years, the Soviet news agency Tass said Wednesday.

Lights Out

NEW YORK UPI — The management of the Empire State Building, in compliance with a request from the National Audubon Society, wiU extinguish tlie lights on its top 30 floors during foggy, rainy or cloudy nights. For some unknown reason, migratory birds have detoured from their course during bad weather to seek out the illuminated portion of the world’s tallest building. Many have hit the building with enough impact to be killed.

By United Pratt International Thunderstorms pelted portions of Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi with rain and hail today. Sections of northern Virginia were covered with 2-3 inches of snow. Stonewall, La., was hit by golfball-size hail and nearby Shreveport reported marble-size hail stones. The weather bureau reported a tornado touched down briefly - near Industry, Teat., between Houston and Austin hut apparently did no damage. Severe thunderstorms accompanied by heavy rains lashed Baton Rouge, La., with more than two inches of rain in a six-hour period. The rains spread into the mid Atlantic Coast.

Liberal Bank Charters Hit By Senate Probers

Two Defendants la Circuit Court Two defendants appeared Wednesday in the Putnam Circuit Court before Judge Francis N. Hamilton.

Poverty Fighter Speaks Tonight Saul iUinsky, recently featured in Harper’s magazine because of his unorthodox meth ods, in fighting poverty, is scheduled to speak at DePauw University tonight. Alinsky will speak at 7 p.m in the ballroom of the Student Union building. The lecture is open to the public. According to Harper’s, Alinsky is a man about whom it is difficult to be neutral. His method, first tried in Chicago’s Woodlawn Negro slum area adjoining the University of Chicago, was applied through what Alinsky called the Industrial Areas Foundation. The IAF, as described by Harper’s, was a kind of training school for agitators which, over 15 years, helped some 40 impoverished communities set up militant organizations. Since that initial effort to form a coalition of the underprivileged and minority groups to combat poverty, Alinsky has been sought by numerous American cities to help them study and solve their problems.

WASHINGTON UPI — Senate investigators charged Wednesday comptroller of the currency James J. Saxon’s liberal chartering of national banks has made them attractive targets for confidence men and financial pirates. In an interim report made public the Senate’s permanent investigations e u b c o m mittee said the unprecedented increase in the number of chartered national banks since 1961—when Saxon became comptroller — “burdens the banking industry with increased elements of risk. “The liberalized, chartering

WASHINGTON UPI — Thu first B52 bomber attack on Communist North Viet Nam was a gigantic blow, comparable in bomb tonnage to the historic Regensburg-Schweinfurt raid on Nazi aircraft and ball bearing plants in World War IL More such attacks probably are to be expected in view of the official assessments in Saigon that the B52s completely sealed the Mu Gia Mountain pass on the Red supply routs to South Viet Nam. But the Pentagon was awaiting further eval-

uation.

Defense squrces disclosed Wednesday that the Strategic Air Command sent a fores of just 30 bombers on the Tuesday mission 65 miles south of Vinh. But the mammoth, eight-engins B52s dropped 700 tons of 750pound and 1,000-pound bombs— 1,400 bombs in all. There has been speculation in

for national bank charters who axe persons of highly questionable character and who lack adequate financial resources and responsibility for conducting legitimate banking ventures.” The subcommittee warned itihat if Saxon continued his present policy “more persons of questionable character and responsibility will likely be attracted to the field, and new laws will be needed to deter

them.”

Chairman John L. McClellan, D-Ark., in a speech prepared to accompany the report, called legislative action to prevent the banking industry’s “infiltration by confidence men, bank pirates, and other corrupt individuals.” The report was based on last year’s investigation of the San Francisco National Bank, the First National Bank, Marlin, Tex., and the Brighton, Colo., National Bank. McClellan said, “our examination of bank failures . . . disclosed that existing federal laws are obviously inadequate to prevent the acquisition of control of banks and other financial institutions by persons of questionable character and integrity, who lack banking experience and financial responsibility.” “Thus far, the deficiencies that we have found have not been corrected, although more than a year has passed since (Continued on Page Z) Lost Space Ship VIENNA UPI —The Soviet Union lost a prototype of its first manned spaceship in 1960, radio Prague reported Wednesday. The broadcast said the lost spaceship caried two dogs and that the incident occurred six months before Soviet Cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin made man’s first orbit of the earth.

jective of the B52 mission was to impress Hanoi with the potentialities of the big bombers for carrying destruction to military targets in the HanolHaiphong area and thus to impress Red leaders with the importance of going to the peace table. But the raid on the Mu Gia Pass was a specific and frightful end in itself. The pass was a key point an the Ho Chi Minh Trail, which feeds men and equipment to South Viet Nam. Lighter weight fighter-bomb-ers had been attacking it continuously but with little effect on the movement of supplies. At that point a road winds tightly through a pass with mountains rising more thpn 3,000 feet on either side. Saigon reported officially Wednesday that the pass was sealed by a “massive landslide” caused by the B52 mission. There Is one other olmlUr mountain pass of importance on the southbound supply route — the Keo Nua Pass on the Viet Nam side of the border near the Laotian town of Nape. It could be qn the B52 target list. Perry Is Innocent HOLLYWOOD UPI — It was all a case of mistaken identity, according to television’s Perry Mason—actor Raymond Burr. Burr said that he is not the Raymond Burr who recently was named here as a defendant in a 820,000 traffic accident case. “Mr. attorney, Don Leon, advises me that the gentleman being sued is a Raymond Burr who lives in Burbank,” Burr said. “I do not know him and I am not now nor have 1 ever been a resident of Burbank. “Perry Mason is innocent. 1 *
