A getaway car that wouldn't run
trapped four men accused of
taking $66 and spark plugs val
.ued at SAC from a service station.

drove into the station and or
.dered so cents worth of gas.
While the owner, Ben Cook,
pumped the gas three of the men
went inside the station.
When their balky car wouldn't
start. Mr.. Cook got a battery
and tried to get it going but the
men waved him off.

Humphrey told . Senate House
E C o n o m C Subcommittee that
economic conditions were pro-

it was "just as we'll to hesitate
IA little" in a rising economy.
Mr.. Humphrey was discussing
the april increase by the Federal
Reserve System in its discount
rate-the interest charged to
borrowing member banks. There
have been contentious that this
rise slowed down borrowing and
the advance of general business.

No Insurance Proposal
The message contained no
specific proposal in the health
field. Last year the
administration advocated a plan
for Federal reinsurance of vol
untary health insurance ar
rangements. This encountered
considerable opposition at the
Capitol and elsewhere.
Mr.. Eisenhower said today
that the administration is still
studying a possible alternative
plan under which private insur-
ance companies would be per-
mitted to share or pool the risks
He added that If such a pooling
system or other practical and
useful methods" cannot be de-
veloped. he will renew the re-
insurance proposal he made last
year.
Besides the suggested increas-
es in Federal funds for research
and the new program for grants
for construction. the President
requested further steps to rem
edy health personnel shortages.
He cited the need for more ply
sicians, dentists and nurses. He
declared that increased funds
for the National Science Foun-
dation would help to increase
the number Of trainees and re-
search workers. He repeated
his recommendation of last year
for legislation permitting grants
and other moves for training of
nurses.

survey-the first in 20 years-to
obtain accurate information on
the nature and extent of sick
ness and disability. He rec

AS they are replaced by the

Oldest B-36s will be dismantled

The letter disclosed another
change in the plan. Originally,
it had been proposed to pay di-
rectors not more than S2,400 a
year Now Mr.. Spencer said,
the bill provides for payment of
$500 a year-except that for
the first year the pay would be
5000.
THE Commissioners consider
this to be nominal compenSa-
ton for citizens of the stature

tive to Sc. vice on the board of
directors must be a sense of pub

said.
1t also pointed out that the
authority would be subject to
suit for damages, but plaintiffs
would have to notify the agency
of potential suits within six
months.
One other previously undis-
closed change would forbid the
authority to compete with exist.
ing interstate operations of any
existing TRANSFORMATION system

Extensive Autonomy
Generally, the authority as
proposed by the Commissioners
and mod fed by the Treasury

Denied Right TO Strike
They would be denied the

provision would make employees
