S. Seniors Plan Activities Annual Program, Picnic This Week OFTTMISTTC JOB OUTLOOK Employment outiook is viewed optimistically by the state employment setup. Fewer college and high school graduates arc filing for jobs this year than last. Settlement of the Chrysler strike has helped plants in New Castle, Evansville, and Kokomo as well as related industries. Charles Gross, in charge of the I job set-up for the state, said that a surprising number of Indiana high school graduates are finding jobs in television and radio manufacturing.

Indiana high schools are tvrning out a bumper crop of around 33,267 graduates this year. Business is booming in many lines and unem- i ployment low in the general state picture. NO EASY SOLUTION Slot machines are facing attack i from a new angle. Heretofore the i "one armed bandits" have been at- tacked from the moral aspects of gambling. The Indiana Restaurant Associa- tion has mounted an attack on slot machines on the grounds they hurt restaurant business and there is no mention of the moral aspect, The association is building a law suit to force Gov.

Henry F. Schric-ker to use Indiana State Police f.nd Alcoholic Beverage police to knock s'ot machines out of veterans' clubs and private clubs. FAVORITISM CHARGE MADE Norman Rcs. executive secretary of the Restauranteers, reports A 7 nn i- fn, 75 cents are "loss leaders." at tract patrons who play the slot machines. Bess sent out.

257 letters asking local officials to enforc the slot machine law. Only two of S3 sheriffs replied. 19 out of 7 prosecutors arsd 12 out of 96 mayors answered. Position of Gov. Schricker is that he will not send state police to clean up slot macn.nes and gam- bling unless local authorities re- quest it.

Bess says Ihe "huck pass- ing" letters from local officials show that slot machines can't be knocked out on the local level. NO ORGANIZED GANG Indiana has the toughest slot ma- chine law in the nation, it illegal to possess or transport slot machines. Yet. Indiana's best cit izens think nothing of trying their luck at a slot machine.

Oliver, Sheriff i William E. Ferrell, Dean E. Duvall, WASHINGTON, May 22 (INS President Truman charged today that Russia by her walkouts in the United Nations over the Chinese issue has "wilfully flouted" the obliga tions the Soviet Union assumed un- der the UN charter. The President told Congress that the UN has "taken the common sense Htt.itiide" toward the Russian boycott bv "proceeding with its' business a.s usual." 1 The Chief Executive assailed the Kremlin in a message transmitting a report on U.S. participation in UN operations for 1949.

tion of former President Hoover that jthe Democracies form a world or- Iganization of their own, excluding Russia and her satellites. The President acknowledged that experience proves up to the present thai, "agreements with the Soviet Union and its satellites are valid only and when they record exisiting situations of fact." But he insisted that "It is essential to create the conditions under which it will be to the interest of the Soviet Union to enter into and keep agreements." Mr. Truman declared that U.S. adherence to the UN is necessary it: i aiistr uui Mini nuricsis, r. sure freedom, and to bring about economic find social progress, for ourselves and all peoples." He added: "The decisions of the UN in 1919 show to a greater extent than in previous yars that the convictions of the world's peoples on matters of fundamental concern have become clear and firm with the lessons of postwar experience.

"Relations among nations have i ncri mvu, inu yi'tuniny nrvt-r vvni be, free from difficulties. "The intensity of the East-West conflict has obscured the fact that certain critical disputes have arisen from purely local conflicts and that many such problems would continue to confront nations even if relations between the Soviet. Union and the rest of the World were far different from what they are today." Mr. Truman noted particularly! the gains achieved in the Middl East ovor the Palestine question, the Indonesian dispute and the present truce between India and' Pakistan over Kashmir. He used these as ex- jamples of the power of moral force mustered by tne UN.

and said: "No nation, member or non-mem- her, attending or non-attending, can avoid accountability before the UN for actions affecting the peace." Martha Huber Dies in Hospital EDINBURG. May 22.
