Changes In Social Law Refused WASHINGTON W President Eisenhower suffered a setback Tuesday when the Senate Finance Committee turned down compulso ry social security coverage for S. 600,000- larm operators aim aw. 000 orofessionals. The committee, working behind closed doors on the administra tion's big social security bill, voted ic a'.low persons In those groups to decide for themselves wnether they want to be covered. However, several committee members said Wednesday other main provisions In the bill prob ably will emerge Just about as the President wants tnem. Meanwhile, the Senate Itself passed 78-3 a bill that for the first time would earmark all the pro ceeds of the federal unemployment compensation tax for the federal state Jobless aid program. The tax comes to three-tenths of 1 per cent of payrolls. The House passed me bill last year so the measure now goes to conference for compromis ing of minor differences. Thus, the states seemed assured of being able In a few years to utilise for actual Jobless pay bene fits about 70 millior. dollars a year that has been going into the federal treasury. Before the bill was passed, the Senate rejected 56-30 an effort by Sen. Kennedy (D-Mass), 15 other Democrats and Sen. Morse find Orel to boost unemployment conv pensatlon benefits about 40 per cent. Eisenhower has urged the states which now decide the amount nnd duration of payment to broaden the benetits. The social security bill would In crease benefits lor the 70 million persons already In the system and raise the tax base to $4,200 of an nual wages from the present 3,600 Alleged Child Molester Held An alleged child molester who was chased from a downtown thea ter and was finally csptured on Main street Is held In the county jail.

At this date, the pointer is tet toward the fourth largest crop vol ume on record. If average condi! Hons hold. It could turn out to t only slightly under 1952 and 1963 but about three per cent short ! the 1948 high. 01 Feed grains make up the largest part of the crop total this year. Th second largest corn crop, an aoove average barley crop, and a rec. old oat crop are expected. The third largest hay crop is on the way. It Is spread out a little more favorably, too, than fce 1953 crop was. Only the severe drought areas will be short of needs. With acre, age controls on wheat, food grains will make up a smaller part of the crop volume. The total wheat crop, while below averaee. is still aririin In aihpfll irrnwov. nrnklam. . crop of around 988 million bushels was In sight on July 1.
