The head Of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad today resisted
a suggestion that the New
Haven Railroad be included in
the proposed merger of his
company and the New York
Central.
James w. SymeS. board
chairman of the Pennsylvania,
insisted that the solution to
the bankrupt New Ravens
problems lies in union with
other New England railroads.
Mr.. SymeS was croSS-eXam-
ined closely on this point by
Joseph Auerbach, counsel for
court-appointed trustees Of
the New Haven. during the
second day of hearings on the
Pennsylvania Central merger
before two Interstate Commerce
Commission examiners.
Questioned by Counsel
Mr.. Auerbach asked Mr..
Symes if he knew the New
Haven had petitioned the ICC
to be included in the proposed
Penn Central consolidation
through corporate merger. He
apparently tried to show that
this form of inclusion would
leave the Penn-Central free of
certain obligations to the debt
ridden New Haven.
Il don't know whether it's a
corporate merger or what" re-
piled Mr.. Symes, but I know
they want in
The New Haven trustees, who
have operated the bankrupt
road for a year, said at the
outset of the hearings that pri-
vate railroading would be
doomed in New England unless
the New Haven we're included
in the proposed merger.
Mr.. SymeS testified yesterday
that mergers are the medicine
that can avert possible bank
ruptcy and naturalization of
the Nations railroads.
Three Big Systems
He suggested main railroads
of the East could be fitted into
three big new systems by a
series of mergers, with the

Agents List Rules
For Safe Hunting

eff you are one of the thousands
who are hunting this season, make
sportsmanship and safety part
of each trip" suggests county
agent George Vapaa. He empha-
sizes that with more hunters j n
the field than ever before, every
one should use common sense in
the handling of guns and be con-
siderate of the rights and safety
of others.
The true hunter displays b o h
sportsmanship and safety. H e
knows how to use the right gun
for the right game. He is safe and
courteous to other hunters n
landowners. For bird hunting, he
takes a trained dog to retrieve
cripples. He puts out campfires
and cigarettes carefully, br eaks
matches before dropping them and.
in other ways, shows considera-
tion and uses precautions.
Vapaa lists ten rules of hunting
safety that should be followed.
!. Treat every gun as though it
were loaded.

consistency in the ANA claim that

doctors themselves are lobbying for
the so-called Keogh bill which would
allow them to set aside 10 percent
of their annual income for retirement
purposes, and not pay any income
taxes currently on that portion. This
amounts to a tax-subsidized savings
system for them, Anderson said.

Radical Right
Tactics Ruked
By TheoIogiun
From LABOR

Monsignor George G. Higgins, di-
rector of the social action department
of the National Catholic Welfare
Council, and widely known in the
labor movement, has congratulated
Father Ralph German, editor of THE
SIGN, a leading Catholic magazine,
for standing up against the radical
right"
Father German was one of the
first editors in the United States to
call the turn on the right-wing ex-
tremists,'' Higgins said. "He started
after them several years ago. His
current editorial will cost him dearly
in subscriptions and personal abuse,
but he isn't easily frightened.
"Right-wing extremists, in Father
Germans opinion, are not true con-
servatives. The true conservatives, he
contends, have much to offer and
should be given every opportunity to
express their point of view. Ditto for
the true liberals. Instead of less he
says, we should have more debate
among them'.''
But, Higgins points out, Cor
man says there hasn't been and
can't be any debate with the ex-
treme right wingers-"who never 4
suffer a doubt and one of whose
chief occupations is writing abusive
letters in which they accuse those
who disagree with them of being
Communists or communist SYM
pathizers."
