A TRUE MUTUAL
OF OMAHA STORY

At the age of 46 Miss Elizabeth

In 8 years she collected nearly
$4,000 and today, unable to work,
gets monthly cash benefits of
$4,000, her sole source of income.

person should be entitled to pre-
sent to the Federal Trade Com
mission q statement Of actual OF
protected conduct, and obtain Q
hearing and q finding that such
conduct is or is not Objectionable,
Ia finding Of mot Objectionable, =
he said, should be q bar to any
civil action or proceedings unless
and until revoked for cause after
further hearing.
Another recommendation by
Mr.. Carroll was that no divesti-
ture of foreign properties should
be ordered. except upon q find
ling that no other action will
remedy the situation found OBJ
|jectionable.
Mr.. Carroll said his proposals
differ Substantially from his un-
|derstanding Of the recommended
|tions Of an Attorney Generals
committee, but he argued that
only a small minority Of that
committee are recognized as ex-
|perienced in foreign trade.
Mr.. Carroll pointed out that
some governments license ex-
ports. some substitute them and
Others control production and
prices on primary commodities.
"If our nationals are to do

tinued. "they must comply with
these regulations as do others
within that jurisdiction. The re-
suits Of such compliance may
well create situations which, If
Judged wholly by our antitrust
concepts would be unreasonable
restraints Of trade. Actually. no
action by agencies Of this Gov
eminent seems to have been
taken In cases such as these.
Certainly. one should not be
punished here for doing abroad
what one would be punished
abroad for not doing"
The subcommittee heard con-
flicting testimony yesterday on
a proposed United Nations
covenant to bring about inn
|proyement In controlling restric-
tive trade practices in interna-
tional trade. The present atti-
tude Of this Government is
against such q U. N. agreement
at this time on the ground that
the present stage Of development
of national antitrust legislation
in the various countries offers
little hope that recommended
|of an international body could
be effectively carried out.

Status Altered

FORT MEADE, Md, June Il
(SpeciaD The mission of tht
Army Reserves 80th Infantry
Division. made up Of reservists
from the District of Columbia
Maryland and Virginia, soor
will be changed from that of 9
combat division to a replace.
Iment training center division.
The reorganization, along with
that of the reserve Tooth Infan-
TRY Division of West Virginia and
Kentucky, was announced by 1t
Gen. Floyd L. Parks, I'd Army
commander here.
1t is a result of a reduction by
the Army of the number of re-
serve combat divisions needed
flor general mobilization.
The I'd Army still will have two
Army reserve divisions on a COM
bat basis-the 10th in Pennsyl-
vania and the 83d in Ohio. Gen
Parks announcement said they
were retained because they rep
resent more densely populated
areas and give the Army tighter
control in emergencies because
each is confined to a single State.
The reorganization OF the 80th
and Tooth division will not affect
summer training of the two units
this year. Headquarters of the
80th Division is in Richmond,
with Maj. Gen. William M.

promptly offered a motion to sus-
pend the sentence and place Full
Ter on probation.
Judge Brown told the jurors
they were free to leave, but he
suggested they remain to heal
more about the case.
Il can readily understand your
reluctance to impose five years. y
said Judge Brown. 1T seems
like an awful long time in view

I would like you to hear why

Reveals Investigation
Judge Brown then recited from
a probation officers investigation
of Fuller that the defendant had
fathered two children by one 16-
girl, a third child by a
17-year-old girl, a fourth child
by a 14-year-old girl and is sup
posed to be the father of an un-

Gil splits.
General Assembly action next
year, the council may be able to
avoid substantial tax raises in
future years.
Specifically county Democrats
hope to persuade the Legislature
this winter to override the veto
of a bill that would permit the
county to impose a cigarette tax
with a potential yield of more
than a half million dollars and
a measure that would increase
State school construction aid to
the counties.
Political observers are not
hazarding guesses on whether
the council will restore $3.1 mill

will put into effect his swimming

The council itself still has
questions unresolved on both the
school operating and capital
budget and plans another con-

and it's staff.
Regardless of council action
on the budget, one thing is GER
tain - financial operations Of
the school board are in for a
close scrutiny next year.
Both the school board and Mr..
Reese want an administrative

BY CASPER NAMES
Star stan Correspondent

NORFOLK. Va, June II. -
Nearly 10 per cent Of virginia's
population belongs to Methodist
churches, the Methodist Virginia
Annual Conference was told yes
terday.
The conference, concluding a
four-day meeting here, learned
that 307,345 persons are mem
bers of its 1,212 churches. The
population of Virginia. accord
ing to the 1850 census figures,
is 3,31s.6so.
The report pointed out that
the figure represents an increase
of 1888 persons over last years
total. To meet the needs Of this
large membership, the church
now has COL ministers. This is
an increase Of 81 over 1854 fig
ures-the exact increase shown
in new churches for the same
period.
$12,646.50O Raised
A record $12, 2,646, 500 was raised
by conference churches in the
past year. A comparison with
the previous year is difficult be-
cause the conference shifted from
meeting in October to June, cut
ting the conference year by four
months.
! About $3,135, 900 was spent for
new and renovated buildings
during 1954-5. A total of $2.-
549.28 was allotted to general

asking the national body ito re-
tain and strengthen the central
jurisdiction of the church"
The statement contended such
an action would be beneficial
to each race in producing har-
mony and goodwill for all
groups
Defeated Without Debate
The memorial. submitted by
the Methodist Church of Law
renceville, Va, was decisively
defeated without debate.
The Methodist Church ma
tionally is divided into juris-
dictions, to which the confer
ences belong. These are or
.ganized on State or sectional
basis. But the colored churches
belong to the So-called central
Jurisdiction, which is national
IN scope.
There is move in some quart
Iers aimed at eventually doing
away with the central jurisdic-
ton. This would result in the
colored churches becoming MEM
bers of the conference where
they are geographically located.
Another resolution, calling for
"a revised marriage ceremony to
take care of double ring we'd
dings" was approved by the
conference. This memorial will
now be submitted to the ma
