Three Local Men

Injured In P lane,

And Car C rad lesDonald Bennett, Clair Schade, Keith Bouhl Hospitalized

Donald Bennett, 20, son of Mr. and Mrs. Willis Bennett, Chats- worth, remains in a somewhat im­proved condition at the Fairbury hospital following injuries receiv­ed when his car collided w ith a truck at 10 o'clock Thursday night on the east edge of Forrest on Route 24.

Bennett received internal injur­ies, possible skull fracture and skin lacerations as a result of the accident. However, his condi­tion has been such that x-rays have not been taken to determine the full extent of his injuries at this time.

It is reported that Bennett was pinned in the wreckage about 45 minutes before workmen were able to free him. He was removed from the scene of the accident by Culkln ambulance and taken to Fairbury hospital.

A full report has not as yet been made concerning the accident, but it is the opinion that Bennett's car rammed a moving van truck west of the railroad tracks at the east edge of Forrest. Bennett was driving west alone and was enroute to work at the LX S. Rub­ber plant In Wilmington. Appar­ently he swerved to avoid collision with the truck, striking a sigty post and finally coming to a stop at the right side of the highway. His car was badly damaged, most of the damage resulting to the-eo- tire left side of his car.

At this w itting oxygen Intake has been som ewhat reduced but his condition is' such that be is unable to have visitors a t this time.

Late reports this morning find Mr. Bennett holding his own.

Plane Crashes In FieldLeslie Clair Schade and Keith

Bouhl. both 28, of Chatsworth miraculously escaped serious In­juries Thursday evening When Schade’s plane fell 800 feet and crashed in a field near Forrest.

The plane, a light Taylorcraft model, went into a spin when the motor failed and crashed into a field on the Ernest Tyler farm three and a half miles northwest of Forrest. The crash resulted In total loss of the plane.

Keith, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Bouhl, suffered cuts, chest in­juries, a fractured rib and broken collar bone. He crawled from the wreckage and then collapsed Into unconsciousness. The Culkin am­bulance removed both boys to Fairbury hospital. Mr. Bouhl’s mother, a nurse at Fairbury hos­pital, said her son told her he thought Mr Schade was pinned in the wreckage. Wm. Honegger, working on his farm nearby, heard cries for help and summon­ed aid to rescue Schade. Due to a radio on at the Tyler house only a quarter mile distant from the wreck, cries for help was not heard.

Mr Schade, pilot, received many lacerations, but aim escaped any serious injury. His right arm and left leg were cut. Mrs. Bouhl re­ported that due to the ground be­ing soft in the newly plowed field where the plane crashed, the fall was lessened.

Ret ports this (Thursday) morn­ing lnfonn us that Schade will leave the hospital Friday. Bouhl, however, will remain for some time yet.

Mr. Schade is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Leslie P. Schade

Interesting Story

Of M atthias’

European TourLetter Relates Highlights of Life In India

Dear Folks—Nothing very im portant to do today while I ’m on m y way be­tween Calcutta, India, and R an­goon, Burma, so I thought i t m ight be a good chance to w rite a le tte r and let you know how things are on this side of the world.

A fter leaving Egypt just about a m onth ago, four days a fte r th e ir revolution aand counter-revolution took place w ith General Naguib, I landed in Bombay on th e 10th of March.

The first thing tha t any s tran g ­er visiting Bombay notices is the fact th a t i t ’s one of the cleanest cities iin the world, not a t all like most people imagine it. Of course the main reason for this is the fact th a t all day and m ost of the night there are s tree t sweepers out with something resembling ov­ersized whisk brooms and a cloth sack for picking up d ir t and pa­per. The people who are the sweepers m ake up the lowest of the Hindu castes, although the beggars a ren’t even p u t in any

j caste and they are below the j sweepers. In regards to beggars, j there are plenty of them anywhere you go, most of them being blind

[ or crippled people who depend on begging for their only m eans of

i living. Also the "best” beggars are the little children who come

1 up and ask any tourist fo r money, j If you don’t give them something you’re liable, to have them follow you for blocks and blocks, either holding onto jro rr a n » or your clothes. "This \isitelly happens in the poorer sections of the city and is not approved of by m ost of the Indian people.

A fter leaving Bombay my next 1 stop was the tw in cities of Delhi i and New Delhi, w ith several stops along the way to see some places

j of in terest shell as several old j m onasteries and the ruins of some J old temples and palaces. The peo- ! pie here say th a t there are more ruins such as this in India than in any o ther country and i t ’s easy to believe. Many tim es you can see farm ers plowing or planting in a field th a t may have an old tem ­ple or a tow er of some so rt in it th a t may be over a thousand years old and they use it fo r storing.

In Delhi, I arrived just in tim e to see the holiday of "Holi." I ’m not sure of its background but i t ’s main idea is to throw colored pow­der and w a te r on your friends as a sort of sign of friendship. The main problem is th a t w hatever clothes you’re w earing a re ruined for good unless you don’t mind wearing them looking m ore like a rainbow th an anything else. Since I had very few clothes w ith me I decided to s tay in the tra in s ta ­tion but I was told th a t since I w as a foreigner and a tourist I needn’t w orry about getting "col­ored" and besides, it would be a good chance for some pictures. A fter th is inform ation and w alk­ing about 100 yards from the s ta ­tion, a little g irl who evidently didn’t know about foreigners and tourists came up behind me and w ith a cup erf som ething like pu r­ple ink proceeded to sp la tte r my khaki pan ts and w hite T-shirt. F rom h e r point of view tha t may have m ade us friends, but from mine I’m not so sure. Anyway I "re trea ted ” back to the station and postponed my sightseeing for a day.

A fter Delhi I went by train to Agra, w here the T aj Mahal is. I had been told to see it the first tim e a t n ight by moonlight and then to see it by daylight. E ither way Fm sure it’s the m ost beauti­ful man m ade thing in the world and well w orth a trip to India to see it alone. The story In th a t the Shah Gahan who had it built as a memorial to his wife also had the eyes of the architect removed aft­er it was built to insure that no­thing more beautiful would ever be made in his lifetime. As a result many Indians feel the “Taj” Is cursed and some people refuse to visit It.

After Agra on the way to Cal­cutta I stopped in Banaras, the “holiest of the holy d tles,” of the Hlnldu religion. In this city are over thirty temples and along the river you can see bodies of the dead being burnt and their ashes swept into the Ganges river.

FROM CONGRESSMANL C . " L E S M A R E N D S

WIRETAPPING BILLA fter tw o days of ra th e r heated

debate the House passed w hat la commonly known as “The W ire­tapping Bill.’’ This is a misnamer. M any of us feel it should be called “The A nti-T raitor Bill.” I ts sole purpose is to enable the Federal Governm ent to prosecute tra ito rs in our midst. By its very term s the bill is lim ited to such cases. Calling it a “wiretapping bill” has led to some m isunderstandings and apprehensions.

In the firs t place, th ere is no Constitutional prohibition against “w iretapping." This point was de­cided by the Supreme Court a num ber of years ago. In 1928 the C ourt held th a t evidence obtained by w iretap did not violate the de­fendant’s righ ts against “unlawful search and seizure” nor his rights under the F ifth Am endm ent with respect to self-incrimination.

In 1934 Congress passed the Federal Communications Act. I t contained a section which pro­vided in substance th a t no person shall intercept any communica­tion and divulge it to any person. This did not m ake w iretapping il­legal. I t was a prohibition against divulging w hat had been learned. And in 1937 the Suprem e Court held in a case th a t w iretap evi­dence could not even be divulged in Court. Subsequently, in 1952 the Suprem e Court barred the w iretap evidence sought to be presented in the Jud ith Coplon case. The Federal Government Is thus unable to proceed success­fully with the prosecution of this and o ther such treason cases.

I t is against this general back­ground th a t the Adm inistration proposed the enactm ent of rem e­dial legislation: I t is particularly im portant a t this time for our na­tional security. I t is im portant in our program to deal effectively w ith the internal activities or Communists. As the situation now is, w iretap evidence can be pre­sented in certain S ta te Courts In the case of S ta te crime, such as theft, etc., but such evidence In­volving the high crim e of treason cannot be presented in a Federal Court against an enemy of the United States.

We Am ericans have g rea t re­spect for an individual's rig h t of privacy. We abhor snooping. We do not like wiretapping. We hate Gestapo methods and will have none of it. At the sam e time, we

;;! have the security problem result- < > I ing from Communist underground I 1 activities. G reat pains were thus

taken in w riting the bill to put into it every possible restriction.

The bill to authorize w iretap evidence does not apply to any civil case. I t does not even apply to all criminal cases. I t applies only to certa in specified criminal cases, such as treason, sabotage, espioage, sedition and those com­ing under the Atomic Energy Act. I t is fu rther restricted to require tha t w iretapping evidence may be obtained solely by the FB I and the intelligence divisions of our defense agencies. I t also requires tha t the evidence presented meet all o ther legal requirem ents w ith respect to relevancy, m ateria lity to the issue, etc.

As reported by the Committee, the bill also required th a t the tapping m ust have the w ritten ap ­proval of the A ttorney General. I t was on this issue th a t the debate largely took place. N otw ithstand­ing all the o ther restrictions in the bill, it w as argued th a t it was not enough to have just the w rit­ten approval of the A ttorney Gen­eral but C ourt au tho rity should first be obtained. An am endm ent to this effect w as offered. Having to obtain Court au thority a t the outset would obviously present the possibility th a t the very per­sons sought to be apprehended would get advance notice of the proposed action. B ut the House adopted the am endment. We hope th a t the Senate will recognize th a t this am endm ent constitutes an unnecessary obstacle to the m ost effective use of th is im port­a n t measure.P ayro ll D eduction* '

The Livingston County Tuber­culosis Association has ju st com­pleted a county-wide Tuberculin Skin te s t of the high school stu ­dents. n » e testing was done by Dr. Lewis Levin, medical director of th e sanatorium , assisted by Miss Florence McConnell, county school nurse, and Mrs. F red Allen, executive director of the Associa­tion.

During the survey there w ere 1262 students tested which was 73.28% of the studen t enrollment, and 12.2% o r 148 of those tested showed a positive reaction. The. per cent of positive reactions ran from 7% in two schools to 18% in one of the others.

A positive reaction does not m ean th a t a student has tubercu­losis, but it does m ean he haa the germ in his body. Therefore he has been in contact w ith someone who DOES have tuberculosis.

W e urge the paren ts of students w ith positive reactions to have the en tire family, along w ith the s tu ­dent, x-rayed a t once—in this way it w ill be possible, perhaps, to find

They've thrown the book away in Ohio—the big, fat book filled with pages of fine print that was supposed to regulate fishermen and improve fishing. Now you can go after any fish in the state in almost all public waters, any­time of the year, and keep all you can catch, without regard to size, creel limits, or species. You not only can, your encouraged to!

This open-handed approach to angling is the result of a fish management program dedicated to the proposition that most people go fishing simply to have fun. Outdoor writer Lee Temple­ton points out that Ohio is no virgin wilderness. It is one of the smaller States In the Union and one o f the more heavily popu­lated. W hat’s more, its public wa­ters must carry a fishing pressure unmatched anywhere In the coun­try.

The decision to apply liberal­ized fishing to this overcrowded situation was based on one of the most careful fishery investigations in the history of American con­servation. This program proved that Ohio fish were dying of old age!

The story really begins in 1930 when the s ta te ran a series of test nettings on Buckeye Lake. I t was apparen t th a t the lake held trem endous quantities of fish th a t no one knew — or even dream ed about. But it w asn’t until 1945 th a t the Wildlife Council agreed to set aside one lake for an exper­im ent in liberalized fishing; more and m ore lakes were added, then stream s. Now public w ater in Ohio is wide open.

Biologists have learned th a t the hook and line is one of the least efficient tools ever devised. Less than one per cent of Ohio’s fish­erm en ever become adept enough

with it to consistently take the bag limits that were then in force. This insignificant harvest was no menace to the fish population. It didn't begin to stack up against the fantastic reproductive power of fish.

Does this mean liberalization can be applied everywhere? Prob­ably not. In fact, scientifically speaking, there is no guarantee that liberalization is the long-run answer in Ohio. It may be, but that remains to be seen. And what■ ■ r-tf Z"'____

The True S to ry of H arrie t Johnson

This week w e would like to give you the tru e life story of H arriet Johnson as to ld in h er own way;

“My sto ry isn’t a happy one, and it’s hard fo r m e to tell. But I th ink people sh o u ld 'k n o w TB can kill if i t isn’t found early— and treated .

I ’m H arrie t Johnson and I m ar­ried Jim m y Johnson when I was 20 years old. We both worked, Jim m y in a factory ju s t outside town. We had been m arried a year w hen the Tubeculoais Association came to the fac to ry and took x-rays of the employees. W hat a shock to learn Jim m y had tuber­culosis.

The doctor said he m ust go to a hospital, so even though I was expecting a baby, he did. I moved to th a t town, ge tting a job so I could be close to him. O ur son, Harold, was born a f te r Jim m y had been in th e hospital seven months.

Jim m y natu rally w orried about me and the baby, and finally left the hospital even though he w asn’t well, and againist the docto r^ ad­vice.

His new job was easier, but be­fore long he sta rted to lose weight, couldn’t eat or sleep, tired too eas­ily, and then he got very sick— tuberculosis, and a m uch m ore ad­vanced case than before!

Of course he had to go back to the hospital. I was worried and j

| had a check up for myself and the [ j baby. Tuberculosis is a very con-1 tagious disease, and I found I had it, but thank goodness the baby was all right. My m other said she would take care of the baby, j so in a few short weeks I also w as a patien t in the sam e hospi- j ta l as Jimmy.

During the following six m onths i I improved rapidly, the baby grew strong and healthy, but Jim m y got steadily worse. I was allowed to visit him in a wheel chair th ree tim es a week, and the last week they let nje see him every day. Yes, Jim m y died one hot July morning holding a picture of the baby in one hand and my hand in the o ther . . . a needless death if he had only stayed th e firs t tim e he w ent to the hospital)

1 fe lt the world bad stopped for me, I was b itter, and I was scar­ed, but w ith the good medical care, the good food I got and w ith my m other’s visits bringing news of my baby and pictures of him, I began m y final recovery.

TTie people a t the hospital have tau g h t m e to be a secretary , and ! in a few weeks my baby and I will s ta r t a new life. I ’ll never forget m y experience and my loss, and I hope my story will help peo­ple to understand the value of physical checkups and x-rays. M ake them realize hospital tre a t­m ent is necessary if they find they have TB. Won’t you please have your x-ray today ? I t ’s such a wise precaution against th is dreaded disease which has broken my fam ­ily!

FIFTY YEARS AGO April 15, 1904

Peeler, b e tte r known in this vi­cinity than the average man, is dead. W hile going to the home of his m aster, Dr. C. V. Filling- wood, on Sunday, he fell dead on the street. Peeler was a dog, but to those who knew him best, he was an unusual dog. F o r several seasons he was in the show busi­ness w ith the Kemp Bros, wild west aggregation and a t Erie. Pa., in 1892. under the name of "Lamp­lighter” this good dog made a record which still stands, running 1 1/8 miles in 1 min., 42 3 /5 sec­onds. He was of kindly disposi­tion and everyone was his friend. He was bom in Chatsw orth four­teen years ago last St. P a trick ’s day and probably no dog was ever more generally liked o r be tte r known in a community than was Peeler.

DON’T WAIT ’TILL TOMORROW

K enneth Nelson, driver of| Onarga Cleaners truck th a t visits Chatsw orth regularly, had an ex­perience last week th a t he won't be likely to forget for awhile.

I t all happened th is way: S ta te police officers h it O narga last week and sta rted a check of cars a t the Intersection of Routes 64 and 46. Every m otorist was stop- j ped and asked to show both bright 1 and dim lights to see th a t both! were functioning. The police w ere ' also checking rea r lights and l!-| cense plates. The check revealed th a t one of Nelson’s driving lights was not burning on the bright position. The officer told him to go into the gas sta tion and have the light replaced.

Ken wasn’t the only m otolst m trouble. There were th ree In line a t Bradshaws. The O narga Oil Co. had several custom ers as he moved down gas alley. He went on to Kuhlm an's s ta tion and they were also busy repairing lights.

Mr. Nelson didn’t see any hu rry about the m a tte r and so he de­cided to drive over to his cleaning plant and unload his truck while the rush was a t its peak. He thought th a t he could have the light repaired Just as well the following morning.

The police were w atching him. There was a Sergeant rn command of the detail. When he saw Nel­son drive tow ard tow n he order­ed one of the officers to follow him. W hen Nelson pulled up a t his place of business th e police were there. Judge Cambridge decided the offense was w orth ten dollars plus $4.60 costa. Tbtal bill, $14.50 and Ken also had to buy the light. Nelson w as confronted with the problem of getting back across the highway w ithout ge t­ting caught In the police check again. He explained to the of­ficer th a t lie:w ould have to cross the chedS ftrda again to get to a service station. The police were understanding and cooperative, they gave him an escort to the designated station for the second trip.

Now Ken’s m otto Is: “Never put, off until tom orrow w hat the sta te police tell you to do today". —Onarga Leader.

--------------- o---------------METHODI8T8 PLAN TO REPAIR PEWS

At a congregational m eeting Sunday m orning following worship service, the M ethodists voted to have the pews repaired. A fter much investigation it was decided th a t only a complete renovation job would be satisfactory. A com­pany in Bradley has agreed to re ­move all the old varnish, and give the seats a hard finish. A sample pew was on exhibit w ith a light blonde wood finish.

The congregation has been plagued for the last tw o years w ith sticky seats. Some members have suffered varnish stains and even to m clothing.

This is an expensive but w orth­while project. The seats a re said to be 50 years old. Curved seats are no longer m anufactured. All m odem church pews have straigh t lines.

A fter arriving in C alcutta and staying for two days I ’m now on my way to Burma, w here I hope to go by train to Singapore. To take a trip of about 100 miles in a th ird class coach on a tra in here costs about 40 or 50 cents, so i t ’s really the best way to travel. Us­ually the trains are fairly fast but very dirty , the shower in the s ta ­tion a t the end of a ride is almost as im portant as buying a ticket before you sta rt.

Also, traveling th ird class you have a chance to see and m eet the real citizen of India, who has little money but plenty of good old fpshioned hospitality. In addition the con trast between the ta lk a ­tive, excitable Egyptians and the quiet, considerate Indians is rea l­ly in teresting to see.

Well, for fear of crowding out some of the paper's o ther news I suppose Td b etter end this le tte r for this time.
