Engine Trouble
Forced Changes
In Ike's Plans
Ramey Air Force Base,
Puerto Rico-IUPD-Engine trou
ble forced minor changes in
President Eisenhower's sched
ule several times during his
South American tour, but
Thursday wa3 the first time
he ran into difficulties while
flying over a jungle in a jet
An oil leak made it neces
sary for Col. William G.
Draper, the presidential pilot,
to shut down the No. 4 en
gine of Eisenhower's big 737
jetliner over the Brazilian
jungle, an hour before arriv
ing in Paramaribo, capital of
of Surinam Dutch Guiana.
Draper alerted air-rescue
units in the area just in case,
but he told newsmen later
that he never doubted that the
big jet would arrive safely in
Paramaribo. Three engines
provide more than enough
power for safe operation of
the plane.
In previous instances where
minor malfunctions had af
fected the Eisenhower trip,
the plane involved was the
President's propeller - driven
"Columbine." In no instance
did engine trouble cause more
than a brief delay.
Throughout the trip, the
plane in which the President
was traveling has been fol
lowed up by an identical
plane and ab ya big Hercules
turbo - prop transport, used
mainly to carry spare parts
but also having space for pas
sengers. All All of the passengers
from the President's plane
transferred to the second 707,
and six of the passengers who
had been traveling in the sec
ond jet remained aboard. The
others finished the trip in the
Hercules.
The crippled 707 was left
in Paramaribo for repairs.
Declines Widened
In Early Trading
New York (UPD Stocks in
early trading today widened
the declines which Thursday
dropped rails to a 16-month
low and brought talk in some
quarters of an end of the bull
market.
The decline, however, was
orderly and on moderate vol
ume and losses generally
were limited to a point or
less.
Rails, in particular, show
ed only small losses. Union
Pacific, Southern Railway,
Pennsylvania were unchang
ed. Among industrials, losses
in top quality issues ranged at
the outside to only 2 points in
Eastman Kodak, and there
were small gains in Du Pont,
General Electric, Internation
al Paper, Republic Steel, Tex
aco, and American Can.

Swastikas Daubed
On WSU Buildings
Pullman, Wash. -0JPD Swas
tika's turned up on five Wash
ington State University build
ings this week, campus offi
cials revealed Thursday.
Campus police said they ap
peared to be the work of
"the same individual or group
of individuals."
The swastikas were found
Tuesday on the administration
building, student book store,
and services building; and on
Wednesday, both inside and
outside Todd and Fullmer
halls, both classroom build
ings. President C. Clement
French said he believed the
swastikas had been painted
by pranksters who were "old
enough to know better."
He said he had found no
evidence of any racial or reli
gious prejudice at WSU.
Morse Cloture
Petition Torn Up
By Sen. Morton
Washington -(DPD- The Sen
ate set a record for around-the-clock
sessions early today
during a debate in which
tempers flared briefly over a
proposal to gag the Southern
filibuster against civil rights
legislation.
After the dispute was re
solved with apparent good
feelings all around, Senate
Democratic Leader Lyndon B.
Johnson said he would like to
wait at least until next week
before trying to choke off the
talkathon with a rarely-used
cloture petition.
At 1:38 a.m. (e.s.t.) the Sen
ate had been in session day
and night for 85 hours and 23
minutes, except for a 15-min-ute
recess, equalling the rec
ord set during a 1954 fili
buster on atomic engery. That
debate was broken by a 24
minute recess.
The civil rights talkathon
will set the record for a con
tinuous session unbroken by
any temporary recess if it's
still going at 1:38 p.m. The
old mark, 54 hours and 10
minutes, was set during a 1915
debate on President Woodrow
Wilson's ship purchase act.
The gag rule flare-up start
ed when Sen. Wayne Morse
(D-Ore.) placed a cloture pe
tition on the Senate clerk's
desk and Sen. Thruston B.
Morton (R-Ky.) tore the paper
to shreds and dropped it into
a waste basket.
The lawmakers later shook
hands and dismissed the in
cident with smiles.

Dissension Delays
Filing of Charges
Against Hoffa
Washington -(CPD- Growing
dissension among monitors
named to supervise a Team
ster's "housecleaning" has de
layed filing of new corruption
charges against Union Presi
dent James R. Hoffa.
Informed sources said to
day the charges, prepared by
monitor chairman Martin F.
O'Donoghue, have been await
ing board approval for more
than a week.
A heated clash Thursday
amonk O'Donoghue and two
other members of the "watch
dog" group - Daniel Maher,
and Lawrence Smith-further
delayed a decision. Another
board meeting was set for to
day. Hot Verbal Exchange
Maher, who represents the
Teamsters, and Smith, spokes
man for rank-and-file rebels
seeking to reform the union,
were allied against the chair
man in the hot verbal ex
change. This broke up Thurs
day's session before the
c h a rg e s concerning Hoffa
could be brought to a vote.
The dispute was reported
to have involved charges and
countercharges of bad faith
or slowdowns in carrying out
monitor duties.
The monitors are seeking
Hoffa's removal as president
of the nation's largest union
and his expulsion from mem
bership. They have accused
him, with Maher dissenting,
of mishandling union funds
in connection with a Florida
real estate deal. Hoffa's trial
on these charges is set for
late April.

Prove-It-Yourself Economy Drive lets
you take the wheel and see for yourself
exactly the mileage you get! Thousands have .
taken this convincing drive. Don't miss it I
Right now's the time to get in on the most unusual test
of gas economy ever devised. No special test track ... no
special test conditions ... no special test driver ! Just you
at the wheel of your Plymouth dealer's regular full-size
Plymouth. Here's how it works:
Mounted on one side of a Solid Plymouth is a jar
equipped with metering devices which allow it to feed a
measured amount of gas directly to the car. You turn a
control and the Plymouth is powered by the gas from
this Economy Metek.
A Chrysler-engineered product, built a new solid may to give you solid satisfaction.
Then you drive. That's all. ' Just drive in your usual
fashion, through normal traffic. When the gas in the jar
has been used, flick the control back and the normal sup
ply of fuel is resumed. Then check the mileage reading
on the speedometer. See for yourself the mileage you got
on just a small amount of fuel. Simple, fair and dramatic
proof, we think, of the solid gas economy engineered into
the Solid Plymouth for 1960.
