Dirksen Lashes Union President
WASHINGTON—(UPI) — Senate GOP leader Everett M. Dirksen gave President James B. Carey of the Electrical Workers Union a furious tongue-lashing today after the labor leader assailed the administration's stand on medical aid for the aged.
The Illinois Republican denounced Carey for making what Dirksen called "another stinking charge" against the administration. Dirksen applied the same description to testimony Monday by Auto Workers Union president Walter Reuther.
"I am not going to let these insane statements like Reuther's and Carey's go into the record without being challenged." Dirksen declared.
Today's shouting match developed at a Senate Labor Subcommittee hearing after Carey charged the Eisenhower administration with a "shameful surrender to the American Medical Assn. and the insurance companies" on the issue.
Dirksen's outburst followed a charge by Carey that administration leaders have gagged health secretary Arthur S. Flemming, who also was scheduled to testify but was reported unready to present any administration plan.
Carey backed a bill sponsored by Rep. Aime J. Forand (D-RI) to increase the social security tax on workers and employers to provide free medical care for old-age pensioners.

Overflow Crowd Hears Huxley

they might be put in a mental asylum."
Mr. Huxley said there are many ways to pass through the gates to the unknown. He said that high fevers and drugs seem to stimulate the visionary experience, as do certain breathing exercises prescribed in Yoga.
"The total absence of stimuli also will bring on the visionary experience, usually within four or five hours. The mind begins producing this material in a vivid and often terrifying way," said Mr. Huxley, referring to the effects of isolation on the mind.
A ripple of laughter swept through the crowd when Mr. Huxley commented on the complete independence of the vision-producing power from the consciousness. He said:
"I find it a comforting thought to know that there is a large part of my mind that has no interest in me."
It is impossible to please all the world and one's father. Jean de la Fontaine.

AL LAUTER
CHICAGO — (UPI) — Former President Harry S. Truman didn't think much of the Wisconsin primary, and has no use for any others for that matter.
"If it weren't for the fact they give you newsmen something to write about, they're no use whatsoever," Truman told a press conference yesterday before the results were known.
Truman Finds No Use For Primary Elections
"What I'd like to see." Truman said, "is a presidential primary that's a national one, with the expenses footed by the federal government. Every citizen should vote in every election, including the primaries."
Only three of the primaries bind delegates to a candidate at the national conventions, he said.
The former president, looking hearty for his 75 years, refused to be drawn into stating his choice for the Democratic presidential nomination.
When a questioner referred to Sen. Stuart Symington (D-Mo) as "your candidate" Truman chided him:
Truman said he would come out for a candidate in the near future. "But in the meantime, I'm not telling you who it is," he added.
"How do you know he's my candidate? You're putting words in my mouth."
Truman was in Chicago to address the 19th annual dinner of broadcast pioneers, who awarded the former chief executive a distinguished service award and other momentos.
Truman and the audience of several hundred got a chuckle when taped excerpts of some of his fiery speeches were played over a loud-speaker system.
In a non-political speech, Truman complimented the broadcast industry on its progress and noted the great advancements since the days of the old crystal set.
A broad smile broke out on Truman's face when a voice in the background during one of his speeches yelled out "Give 'em hell, Harry," and Truman answered back in his now-famous retort, "Give me a chance and I will."
Fate of Relays Up to Students

to make a lot of money but rather
to avoid a deficit.
He said last year approximately $12,000 was spent on the Relays and they came out more than $200 in the hole. He also said there have been deficits in previous years.
Coach Easton said the KU Relays are known throughout the world. Outstanding track and field stars compete in them each year. People throughout the state and surrounding areas attend the two-day event.
Many athletes who will be on the U.S. Olympic team competing in Rome this summer will be here for the Relays.
"Part of the expense for the Relays is due to the fact that they have to pay for the athlete's transportation to the Relays and also for his living expenses while he is here," he said.
Coach Easton is also working with people in downtown Lawrence to help promote ticket sales.
Coach Easton said the Texas Relays and Drake Relays which are comparable to KU's have budgets for operating their meets and also charge the students admission.
