UPI— A Milwaukee, Wis., obstetrician who is the president-elect of the Wisconsin Association of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons, Sunday called for unrestricted, legalized abortion. Dr. Leon Gilman told a convention of the association any woman, married or not, should be allowed to have an unwanted pregnancy terminated by a licensed hospital at a reason-
able fee.
“The power to decide the legality of an abortion must be placed in the hands of the pregnant woman, not the church or the state,” he said.

story.
It seems there was a pair championship being played in Paris. East-West were a couple of up-and-coming youngsters fighting hard to make their mark in the tournament. They had played so slowly during the preceding round, that when they arrived at the next table to play against the NorthSouth pair, there wasn’t even time for them to ask each other what systems they were play-
ing.
(In tournaments, the players are required to inform their opponents of all methods and conventions they use, such as weak notrumps, Stayman, Texas, preemptive jump overcalls, etc.
HANDS
The following bidding sequence now took place on the hand shown in the diagram:
continuation with the nine. North stewed a while and then led the ace of clubs. Again South signaled with the nine. North now had to decide whether to lead a diamond or a club. He finally led a diamond, taken by South with the queen. It was now South’s turn to cogitate, and although West was already down 500, South gave the matter considerable thought. North had led the seven of diamonds at trick three, obviously his highest one, thus marking declarer with at least one more diamond. But South was still not sure. He had a strong feeling that he should try to cash the club first. Still uncertain, he finally turned towards East and said: “Please. What system are you two play-
ing?”
But North, his partner, promptly interrupted and said: "Why do you ask? Don't tell me that yon want to learn this system!” West went down 1,100.
On The Farm Front
National Window Opinion
By LYLE WILSON Two freshmen Republican governors merit special attention from party policy makers j because they seem to be adopting successfully the policy strategies of the most successful Republican governor presently in office. The freshmen are Govs. Ronald Reagan of California and Claude Kirk of Florida. The most successful Republican governor presently in office is James A. Rhodes of Ohio. He was re-elected last year to his second four-year term. In the state’s May, 1966, Republican

primary, Rhodes was renominated by an 8-to-l margin. More important, Republicans outvoted Democrats in an Ohio primary for the first time since 1956. Rhodes’ political slogan has been fiscal responsibility. His idea of fiscal responsibility is to save, not spend, public money. Rhodes slashed statg payrolls, poor relief and other spending. He said Ohio must provide 200,000 more industrial jobs and he proceeded far toward getting them by Inducing industries to move into the state. California’s Reagan probably got from Rhodes the Idea of asking state employes to work a couple of recent holidays. In his first months of office In 1963, Rhodes asked Ohio’s state employes to volunteer to work without pay on Washington’s and Lincoln’* birthdays. There was griping but most of them showed up. Rhodes had fired 6,300 state Job holders by then which may have added emphasis to his request. A link between Rhodes, Reagan and Kirk Is economy in government. The affected jobholders and other Interests In Ohio were and probably still are furious with Rhodes. By one device and another, however, Rhodes has managed to get out of the line of fire so that the meat-axed jobholders and others confront the taxpayers. Reagan in California and Kirk in Florida also are maneuvering to get out of the line of fire between the special Interests wounded by their various economy programs and the taxpay-

ers. Both freshmen governors have dared to take on the educational establishment, state and national. The National Education (NEA) and its elements operating at state levels intimidate most politicians. Kirk and Reagan appear both to regard NEA and its affiliates as arrogant and beatable. Moreover, there Is some evidence that California taxpayers are not as enraged by Reagan’s efforts to cut the cost of education as are some other citizens with a more direct stake in the dispute than the size of their tax bills. The Wall Street Journal for May 13, 1963, sharply stated the accomplishment of Rhodes in Ohio which Reagan and Kirk hope to achieve in their states. In bold type, the headline asserted: Ohio’s Rhodes Squeezes Costs, Wins a FoUowing. Shrill protests against Rhodes’ austere

West Germany, to bolster labor unions there.” In Detroit, Walter Reuther confrimed Sunday that the UAW did agree, reluctantly, on one occasion, to the request to transmit government funds to supplement the inadequate funds being made available by the U.S. labor movement.” Reuther did not name the sources of the funds in his statement but a UAW spokesman confirmed today that the money referred to was the 350,000 mentioned by Braden. Calling Braden’s remarks "incomplete and misleading,” Reuther said the money he got was "merely added to the trade union fund to intensify the education and organizational programs then under way in Europe. The content of the programs was in no way affected or altered.” Reuther also said that following this incident his brother, Victor, was contacted by Braden and asked to become an agent for the CIA, using as a front his position as European representative of the CIO. “Victor Reuther emphatically rejected Mr. Braden’s request,” the UAW president said. "It was also my idea to give cash, along with advice, to other labor leaders, to students, professors and others who could help the United States in its battle with Communist fronts,” Braden said.

economies echoed coast to coast in his early years in office. They are not much heard now. California protests against Reagan’s economies seem to be somewhat diminished. Kirk still is taking his lumps. But John McDermott, the Miami Herald’s able and informed political writer, rates Kirk as a crowd pleaser who has in his hand the public pulse. Kirk’s first budget message proposed a cut of $101 million in state
spending.
John reported that the Florida public liked Kirk’s ideas for budget slashing and that in areas of state government where reductions applied, the personnel did not like it at all.
By LARRY D. HATFIELD WASHINGTON UPI — The Johnson administration is considering legislation that would give farmers more muscle in the market place through the lifting of some existing antitrust restrictions. The legislation is still in the “early talking” stage, and is not expected to be proposed during the current session of Congress. Administration sources said, however, that the bill might be drafted and formally proposed next year. It would apply to certain regulations on farmer bargaining. Meantime, administration officials were prepared to give their endorsement Tuesday to another measure which Agriculture Secretary Orville L. Freeman said goes “a little step” toward increasing farm bargaining power. Freeman was to testify before the Senate agriculture subcommittee on a bill to prohibit discrimination by processors against farmer-members of bargaining associations. It would be aimed at cases where the discrimination was based on the farmer's membership in the bargaining group. But Freeman’s eventual goal goes far beyond protecting farmers from discrimination caused by their attempts to form a bargaining unit. What he has in mind is affirmative clearance to carry on bargaining activities which currently would violate federal antitrust
law.
Big labor, Freeman noted last week, can and does organize, can withhold its labor from market, can require collective bargaining, and can certify a bargaining agent. “A farmer can't do those things,” he said. “Any time the farmer begins to get close to having effective control over his supply, why the antitrust laws come into effect and *ay you can’t do that.” The farmer is being advised today to bargain more effectively and then told that if he gets enough economic strength
to he effective he’ll be breaking the law, Freeman said. “We are giving attention to what can be done to modify this so . . . the farmers would have a fair shake. This may very well be, as the saying goes, an idea whose time has come.” While Freeman considers new steps to help farmers organize, some legislators are pushing new proposals designed to help farm workers organize effective labor unions. Public hearings were scheduled to open today before a bill submitted by Rep. James O’Hara, D-Mich. It would give farm employes the same type of legal collec-
tive bargaining rights that have long been held by non-farm workers.
