Congress Releases MOSCOW Is BOSS Eleven Die in First Results HCUFI Reported Early Returns Arc Incomplete State Traffic us: i um increase in Student Nurses Necessary INDIANAPOLIS Over the next ten years six new student nurses must be enrolled in the nation's nursing school for every four enrolled during the 50 's.

RYAN Associated Press News Analyst Moscow, say the Red Chinese loudly and clearly, is the big boss. Peiping's Communist party has gone out of its way to emphasize that the Soviet Union is the undisputed lrader ti.e world Communist movement. The remarkable performance more than justifies the expressed conviction of Secretary of State Christian A. Herter that the Kremlin is responsible for the actions of China ar.d the whole Red bloc. It underscores Undersecretary Douglas Dillon's contention that the USS should be held responsible for any Peiping aggression.

If tin-re are differences on the ideological or the strategy level between Moscow and Peiping, the Chine.se party seems to have buried them in an extravagant bow to Moscow's unquestioned leadership. As if to dispel any notions among the world's Communists of a Kremlin-Peiping rift, the most important Red Chinese newspaper, the Peiping People's Daily, has just published an editorial important enough to be chorused by the whole country's provincial press. Its theme also was broadcast in foreign languages. It was not a long editorial. But no less than eight times it stated unequivocally that in matters of the world revolution and the strategy of the revolution, the Soviet leaders were the bosses.

Here are pertinent excerpts: "China has become a component of the Socialist camp headed by the Soviet Union." "The entire Socialist camp, headed by the Soviet Union, has grown in strength and closer unity with each passing day." "In tre past 10 years, the great unity of the Socialist camp, headed by the Soviet Union, has made tremendous contributions to safeguarding world peace and in socialist 1 by which the Reds mean Communist undertakings." Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's recent disarmament proposal "clearly illustrates that the Socialist camp, headed by the Soviet Union, is the strong pillar of peace." "The Chinese people have always regarded it as their sacred international duty continuously to consolidate and develop the solidarity of the Socialist camp headed by the Soviet Union." "Today the Socialist camp, headed by the Soviet Union, is more united and stronger than ever." Red China will "promote the unity of the Socialist camp headed by the Soviet Union." And the last line of the editorial: Long live the great solidarity of Socialist countries headed by the Soviet Union The Chinese Communists hardly could make their meaning clearer.

Supreme Court to Review a Decision WASHINGTON (AP) The Supreme Court today agreed to review a decision that compulsory union membership is unconstitutional if dues money is used for political purposes without the consent of union members. The decision was given by the Georgia Supreme Court in a suit by six employes of the Southern Railway System. It was appealed to the highest tribunal by 15 unions, among them railroad brotherhoods at whose insistence union shop contracts have been signed by many railways. Under union shop contracts, employes are required to join unions within a specified time. In the Georgia case this was 60 days.

The six Southern Railway System employes said they did not want to join unions and should not be forced to pay dues when part of the money was used to support political candidates and doctrines they opposed.

Flu Vaccination Is Urged by Hoosiers INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Susceptible Hoosiers should consider vaccination against influenza. Dr. A.

C. Offutt, state health commissioner, said today. He said 16.735 cases of influenza have been reported in Indiana this year, compared with in the same period last year. The worst outbreak came between Feb. 21 and May 16, with about 12,000 cases reported.

There has been a gradual drop, with only 63 cases listed last week.

He listed as susceptible groups those with heart or respiratory diseases, those over 55 with chronic illness of any type And pregnant women.

Doctors' advice on immunization also should sought by persons responsible for essential services such as law enforcement, fire protection, transportation and communications, the commissioner said.

Lectures will be given on Wednesday evenings, October 14th, October 21st and October 28th, 8:00 p.m., at the R.E.M.C. Building. Lecturer this week will be The Rev.
