rapidly as the old ones become ac-

TERRE HAUTE PROBE
DEVELOPS FURTHER
MYSTERIOUS ANGLES

INDIANAPOLIS, Dec. IA new and
mysterious angle in the alleged Terre
Haute election frauds, being probed by
the federal grand jury, developed to-
day when Attorney Frank Fippen no.
titled District Attorney Bailey that he
desired to withdraw the bonds furnish
ed for four of the eight men who have
been recently released from the coun-
ty Jail here. This indicated that the
bondsmen represented by Fippen were
displaying a disposition to detect the
four men.
District Attorney Bailey sprung a
surprise when he notified Fippen that
the bonds upon which the men were
released were not the ones that were
at first presented. but bonds that were
subsequently furnished by other par
ties. Mystery, surrounds the identity
of the real bondsmen in these cases.
The original bands submitted, but
which Bailey says were disapproved,
were signed by members of Mayor Don
Roberts administration.
Attorney Fippen's action today was
taken in court circles as meaning to
strengthen the current belief that ad-
dltiOnal and more startling surprises
are yet to come to light.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7-Calling into
action the final session of the Sixty
third Congress, the gavels fell in the
Senate and House at noon today. and
the Legislators took up the tasks they
abandoned late in October. Crowded
calendars confronted both houses, al
though it is apparent that the short
session. expiring March 4 by Constitu-
tional limitation, must be devoted
largely to the annual appropriation
bills.
Little time was lost in preliminaries
in either house today. Except for the
handshakng and the jibes of both Re-
publicans and Democrats concerning
the results of the last election. the
business of legislating began without
special ceremony or incident.
