Fraternal Insurance Bill Killed Hughes' First Major Defeat I Suspend Plans for Exchange Raids, Reaction Chill the Air By Henry S. Bradsher MOSCOW, RUSSIA (AP) -The Viet Nam flareup has put on ice prospects for visits by President Johnson to the Soviet Union and by Russian leaders to the United States. Just two weeks ago, Mr. John Too Busy By Drake Mabry and Marvin Braverman The Iowa Senate Wednesday killed a bill to levy a 2 per cent state tax on many premiums collected by fraternal insurance companies. The action represented the son said ne hoped tne visits would take place this year.

Now consideration of them has been suspended, according to Soviet first major legislative defeat for Democratic Gov. Harold Hughes in the current session of the General Assembly. Hughes had strongly supported the measure. The controversial bill lost by a vote of 31 to 24 in the Senate, which the Democrats control by a 34-to-25 margin. Mrs.

Eischeid's houseful of children will prevent her from accepting the free, lifetime membership in the Des Moines Mothers of Twins Club to which she is entitled as the mother of triplets. (Similar recognition is accorded mothers of two sets of twins.) Mothers of Twins clubs constitute a growing organization. Mrs. William Morris, president of the Des Moines club, estimates there are 150 Iowa members and 5,000 nationally. "We study problems that apply particularly to parents of twins should they be in the same classes at school; should they dress alike; what do you do when one twin is invited to a party and the other is not?" says Mrs.
