2 KOKOMO (Ind.) TRIBUNE Friday, Jan. 9, 1959 Oratorical War Waged By GOP, Demos in Legislature By DON REEDER Associated Press Political Writer INDIANAPOLIS (AP)--The 1959 State Legislature, advertised in advance as "harmonious and constructive," went into its second day today already ripped by ds- sension and recriminations. Pledges of friendly co-operation between the divided chambers up in oratorical smoke Thursday in a bitter dispute over Senate committee assignments that threatened a brief logjam of legislation in the House of Representatives. Other predictions of a slow-moving session were jolted by introduction on opening day of the two major issues facing the 91st General Assembly--the right-to-work 6 Northwestern Students Named To 'All-Star' Band Six students from Northwestern High School, have been selected as members of the "All-Star" high school band of 125 members which will be featured at the 4th annual Music Reading Clinic at Purdue University Saturday. More than 100 high school band directors will attend the clinic which is sponsored by the Purdue Department of Bands, directed by Al G.

Wright. In a series of playing sessions, starting at 10 a.m. the "All-Star" band will present recently published band compositions so that the directors may evaluate them for use in their own band programs. Band auditions will start at 9 a.m. The Northwestern High School bandsmen are Joyce Merrill, clarinet; Ruth McClelland, bass clarinet; Martha Ritchey, oboe; Morris Garbert, cornet; Roger McConnell, baritone, and Bill Hawthorne, string bass.

Selection of the "All-Star" band members was made by a special committee of five high school band directors on a basis of musical ability and proficiency in music reading. Robert R. McEmber, assistant director of Purdue Bands, is the supervisor of the day's program. law repealer and the first billion- dollar budget in Indiana history. Lt.

Gov. Crawford F. Parker refused a Democratic request to reconsider his Senate committee assignments, and in retaliation Speaker Birch E. Bayh Jr. (D- Terre -Haute) indicated he will delay announcing House committee assignments and thus halt progress on all bills including record $1,041,863,320 biennial bud- Set.

Sen. Matthew E. Welsh (D-Vincennes), minority floor leader, had protested that Parker's committee-list wasn't giving the Democrats their fair share of seats in proportion to their strength of 23 members in the 50-member upper chamber. "If they want to be that way about it," said Bayh after he heard of Parker's refusal to change the assignments, "then I'm in no hurry to release the list of House committees. I'm sorry' it has to be that way, because we have tried to be fair about it." However, even House Democratic leaders conceded it would be almost impossible to delay announcing the House Committees past Monday, since bills will be pouring in that must be assigned to committees for study.

Rep. Robert L. Rock (D-Anderson), majority caucus chairman, said after a caucus that instead of slashing the already thin Republican share of committee ap- psointment, the GOP members may find themselves not getting any of the committees they requested and specialize in. The Republicans are outnumb ered 79-21 in the House and would mathematically be entitled to an average of three members on the normally 15-member committees. Rep.

Donald E. Foltz (D-Clinton), majority floor leader, said the list as originally drawn up gives the opposition four members on most committees--still far too few to cause any trouble.

Steele (R-Bedford) and Von A. Eichhorn (D- Uniondale) introduced the package of highway reorganization bills recommended by the Legislative Highway Study Commission. The feature provisions of the bills are replacement of the three- member State Highway Commission with a single director and an advisory committee named by the governor, and restrictions on amounts that can be paid for rental of highway equipment. Steele and Eichhorn also introduced a resolution calling for creation of a study commission on highway construction. The bill to legalize SUB payments would affect an estimated 130,000 Hoosier workers, William C.

Dam Bursts In Spain, Over 80 Die ZAMORA, Spain (AP)-- A dam on Lake Sanabria burst early today, unleashing a wall of water on the mountain village of Riva- delago.

More than 80 persons are known to have perished and many more are missing. Houses in Rivadelago, a town of 500 inhabitants, were swept away as if made of cardboard. The -dam broke at 12:30 a.m. and most villagers were asleep. All fire trucks and ambulances, troops garrisoned in Zamora and members of the Falange party youth front were immediately ordered to the scene.

The Monacabril power station, on the western edge of the lake and employes' on duty there also were engulfed by the wall of water. The disaster occurred in one of the most inaccessible sections of Spain. It posed no threat to American forces, whose nearest base is at Madrid, 190 miles to the southeast. Steady rains over the past month had swollen the lake to the brim. It is also known as Lake Villachica and is located In the extreme northwest corner of Zamora province, about 10 miles north of the border with Portugal.

Ike Challenges (Continued from Page One) mestic programs to be curtailed or dropped in his campaign to achieve a balanced 77-billion-dollar budget. His budget message will go to Congress Jan. 19. His challenge to the Democratic Congress- to live within that budget underscored an issue almost sure to figure in the 1960 presidential campaign. Democratic already have challenged the announced total as unrealistic and inadequate for national security.

Some Republicans have joined them in questioning the $40,900,000000 reportedly included for defense. Without mentioning the 77-billion figure today, Eisenhower hit back at contentions it isn't big enough in the light of the Soviet Union's spectacular progress in the space field. The President called his defense plans sensibly balanced against a need for maintaining a sound economy and fighting off devastating inflation. And he cautioned against useless i i a expenditures which, in the name of security might tend to undermine the economy and, therefore, the nation's safety. "We can afford everything we clearly need, but we cannot afford one cent of waste," he said.

Putting it squarely up to Congress, Eisenhower said: "The Constitution entrusts the executive with many functions, but the Con- Chairmen Named NF Lists Events of March Of Dimes Annual Campaign March of Dimes events here and Mrs. Duke Newell, 907 organization of police and fire departments would make it a felony to even attempt such organization.

The bill that would repeal the politically explosive 1957 right-to- work law was introduced in the Senate in a surprise move by Sen. S.

Hugh Dillin (D-Petersburg) and Sen. William C. Christy (D-Hammond). It was expected, of course, but not on the first day of the ession. Lt.

Gov. Parker immediately assigned it to the Labor Committee, loaded 7-2 with Republicans, most of whom are described as in favor of keeping the law on the books. Indications of a wavering Republican front on the repeal issue gained added support in comments from two key GOP senators, Roy Conrad of Monticello and Ruel W. Steele of Bedford. Both men said Congressman Charles A.

Halleck R-Ind), the new Republican House leader in Congress, told them he opposed the right-to-work law. Steele voted against passing the in the last session, and Conrad voted, for it. However even Conrad conceded a repeal move in the current session was likely succeed with help from a few Republican senators. Plans to call public hearings on the repeal- bill were announced by Sen.

"As a consequence, we can have no confidence in any" treaty to which the Communists are a party except where such a treaty provides within itself for self-enforc- "ng mechanisms." In calling for a sensible posture on defense, Eisenhower said this is a time when man's power of.

nass destruction has reached fear- proportions. The United States, Eisenhower said, seeks only a just peace Jfbr all. "Yet we realize there is an uneasiness in the world because of a belief on the part of peoples through arrogance, miscalcu- ation or fear of attack, catastrophic war could be launched," the President added, He said the new fiscal year com- Tiitments for America's armed "orces, the Atomic Energy Commission and 'military assistance abroad exceed 47 billion dollars, about 60 per cent of the total budget. Eisenhower put the estimate in general terms. Eisenhower took no direct note of Democratic contentions that the United States is not going far enough fast enough in the -missile and general space fields.

Eisenhower held out hope for tax relief, saying that if a balance is achieved "there is real hope that we can look forward to a time in the foreseeable future when needed tax reforms can be accomplished." The President announced he is requesting Secretary of the Treasury Robert B.

Earl M. Utterback, Kokomo High School teacher who formerly served on the education committee of the Indiana Senate, criticized Lieut. Gov. Irawford Parker Friday for Parker's failure to name an educator the committee for the 1959 session of the General Assembly. "The Lieutenant Governor has erred seriously in failing to name a single active educator to the very important Senate Education lommittee," Utterback charged.

The Kokomo senator continued: "It has been the tradition in the Senate, and it's a good tradition, .0 name to key committees sena- who have professional experience in the subjects the various committees consider. "This practice was followed by the Lieutenant Governor in nam- ng eight farmers to the Agricul- Committee, in naming six senators who are active in the insurance business to the Insurance Committee, and in appointing eight attorneys to the Judiciary Committee. "Yet in a field so vital to the state as education not a single active professional educator is permitted to be a committee member. And I say this without any criticism of the fine present mem bers of the committee. "I am certain that members ol the teaching profession throughout the state as well as citizens interested in the welfare of our school system will be seriously concerned about the attitude ol Mr.

Parker in failing to appoint to the Education Committee one of the senators now engaged in the education profession.

Another GOP Battle In Offing WASHINGTON (AP) Senate Republicans appeared heading today toward another liberal vs conservative battle this time over chairmanship of their Senatorial Campaign Committee.

Reports circulated among GOP members that Sen. Leverett Sal- tons tall of Massachusetts, chairman of the party conference, was balking at the proposed appointment of Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona as head of the group charged with directing efforts to elect GOP senators in 1960. Some of his colleagues said Saltonstall had indicated he believed the selection of Goldwater for this post would be regarded as a slap at organized labor and as a salute to the party's conservatives. Goldwater was re-elected ia November in a contest in which he attacked what organized labor's dues collected under compulsion, for political purposes.

Goldwater also has been an advocate of right-to-work laws by unions. Goldwater had headed the Campaign Committee once before. Saltonstall, who has the primary power of appointment, said he has not made up his mind about the Campaign Committee chairmanship. His recommendation is subject to ratification by the 34 Republican senators when they meet early next week. Goldwater was one of the conservative bloc which backed Sen.
