"Fifteen thousand words in Senate Bill 268 spell the end of private ownership of land as conceiyed and understood under the American System of constitution government," Horton continued. "The states are falling into line with the federal land use control plan by appointing their own land use commission which would carry out the dictates of the federal government." "Senator Paul Fannin of Arizona, an original sponsor of land control legislation, now affirms that land use policy "would do great violence to our traditional American rights," and warns that through the bill property owners can be reduced to landless serfs beholden to the Lord of the Manor in Washington," Horton asserted.

Democratic State Chairman Bill K. Trisler announced the first ballot apportionment Tuesday. Gov, George C. Wallace of Alabama has 10 delegates and the other 14 are uncommitted. Trisler said the national party's Compliance Review Commission approved by telephone Tuesday the distribution he and aides worked out based on final official figures from the May 4 primary.

The breakdown is not binding for the second or later ballots. Sen. Henry M. Jackson of Washington State and anti-abortion candidate Ellen McCormack of New York were on the presidential ballot in Indiana, but neither received any delegates. Trisler said 90 persons have filed for the 75 delegate positions.

Trisler is among those filing for delegate at large, along with Allan Rachles, new Democratic state treasurer, and party Vice Chairman Patty Evans of Linton. Neither U.S. senator has filed yet. Sen. Vance Hartke has said he does not intend to be a delegate.

Here is the list of persons filing for delegates, with presidential choices shown as for Carter, for Wallace and for un Congress WASHINGTON AP) Anew special House committee formed to investigate professional sports can be expected to begin work almost immediately, with an emphasis on baseball, Rep.

Passage of the legislation creating the committee came quickly Tuesday evening congressmen, anxious to adjourn for the day, cried out, "Vote! Vote! "while Sisk and his Republican counterpart on the floor, John Anderson of Illinois, attempted to explain the details of the legislation. In less than 10 minutes, and on a voice vote with no dissents, the measure was approved. An hour had been allocated for debate. Sisk had told the House Rules Committee that the new special panel would look into such problems facing baseball as the sports exemption from antitrust laws, court decisions that have eroded the reserve clause and tax matters affecting the owners Shafe, Bloomington-D; Michael K.
