Building Service Employees. Both unions are affiliated with the American Federation of Labor. “I am. not guilty of taking any money from Local 67 illegally, Dixon said. He said he had been getting compensation from the union for work and' trips during his term as president. “I did work that Robert A. Callahan should have been doing anyway,” he said. Callahan is the international rep resentative for Local 67' in this area. Result of Bitterness Dixon said the charges made Wednesday by international rep resentatives of Local 67 were the result of bitterness over tire break. “These boys are hurt because they lost a very ripe plum which net ted them $5OOO to $6OOO a year in per capita tax,” he said. The per capita tax is a percen tage of the dues of each union member which is sent to the in ternational union. $2218 Short Accusations were made Wed nesday that $2218.22, in union funds was unaccounted for during the first seven months of this year. One of the points included in the charge was that Dixon had received a payment of $lOO for the month of September instead of the regular slo' compensation. The shortage in the funds was presented in a report by Martin Hellez, chief accountant for the State, County, and Muncipal Workers International. It Was im plied that the former officers of local 67 had held back the funds. The officers were among those who left the local to affiliate with the Building Service Employees International. Dixon said that he had filed a counter-bond to the writ of re plevin action which was filed by Local 67 to regain the minutes and correspondence of the union. Since the split two weeks ago, all minutes and records of Local 67 have been in the possession of the new organization. Dixon said he now has the records back in his possession. Robert Lonergan, international representative for Local 417, is sued a blanket denial of all char ges made by Local 67. A meeting of Local 417 has been called for 8 tonight in the lOOF Hall. CBS Confused On Location Of University The publicity department of the CBS Television Network is just as confused as Herb Shriner about the location of the Pennsylvania State University in a town called State College. The department’s release on the appearance of the McCloskey triplets on Herb Shriper’s show “Two for the Money” said that the girls were freshmen at the Pennsylvania State “College.” • When Shriner interviewed the girls he asked them whether they were attending the University of Pennsylvania. When Jeanne, Ju lie, and Joyce replied that they were attending the Pennsylvania State University in State College, he commented: “I see. You are going to two different colleges. Is that the idea? I’m a little mixed up . . . it’s a confusing setup.” Pem State Players present BELL, BOOK, and CANDLE Tickets at Student Union or tfee Door THE DAH.Y COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE.

Stewart Proposes Unemployment Aid Immediate and positive action to end unemployment in the state was advocated last night by John R. Stewart, Democratic Congres sional candidate for the 20th district, speaking to the Young Demo cratic Club. In attacking the Republican contention that the nation is now in a “leveling off” period, Stewart cited the unemployment situation in his native city of Altoona, saying: “Those 45,000 people on food re lief there know this is not merely a recession but a depression. “With several hundred thou sand high school and college grad uates and returning servicemen flooding the employment markets each year, we can’t afford to ‘level off. We must create new jobs,” he said. To create these new jobs, Ste wart listed public works projects as well as means for attracting new industries to the area. Pub lic school construction, reforestra tion, stream rehabilitation for flood prevention, and dam con struction ate vitally needed, he said, Showing how new industries could be attracted, Stewart pro posed that “we lift some industrial taxes and contruct plant facili ties to be leased to the new firms.” Under the program he outlined, the buildings would be state fi nanced, then leased to the con cerns for 15 years. The rentals would pay for the buildings in this time and they would then be company property. “In the meantime,” he said, “the payrolls would bring millions of dollars to the state each year.” Stewart called Republican char ges on Communism in govern ment a “numbers game” saying “They have not convicted one known Communist since they have been in office.” Known Communists Tried Before the Republicans came into power, he said, all known Communist party leaders were tried under the Democrat-passed Smith Act. “The Republican Party would like the public to think the 6000 ‘security risks’ recently discharged from the government were sub versives,” he said. He claimed the security risk dismissals include persons who drink too much, talk too much, or whose morals may not be the best. ■ In refuting Republican charges . . a Center Stage production— Friday nights at the TUB the Dean By ANN LEH Build Plants Juba, Reports Trophy Theft State College Police Chief John R. Juba said Wednesday that a complaint had been re ceived concerning trophies stolen from fraternity houses over the weekend, and that an investigation will be started. Marshall Dawsey, president of Delta Upsilon, reported that thre.e trophies were stolen from the chapter house. Seven tro phies were stolen from the Delta Upsilon house last year during the West Virginia week end. Five of, them were return ed through the Office of the Dean of Men at West Virginia. that the Democratic party was a war party, Stewart, who lost his right arm fighting in World War 11, said: “The bill to declare World War II was passed by every member of both houses of Con gress.” ( It was not, he contended, a Democratic economic measure, for “At that time we were well on our way to economic stability.” As far as the United States’ en trance into the Korean War was concerned, Stewart said it could' have been prevented by the pas sage of the Korean Aid bill in May, 1950. The measure, which would have granted Korea $6O million, was defeated by a 192-191 vote just a month prior to the U.S. entry into the war. - “My opponent (James Van Zandt, Republican incumbent) voted against the bill,” he said.

OCTOBER 22. 1954 fame Change: Both Sides Confident Of Victory Chairmen of the opposing fac tions in the controversy over the borough name change expressed confidence yesterday that the State College voters would back their groups’ views at the polls Nov. 2. Edward Dill, chairman of Friends of State College, and John McLucas, chairman of the Com mittee Of 50, were asked for their opinions on the Daily Collegian poll published yesterday. Dill said he felt that the ma jority of voters are opposed to the name change. He said" he thought the poll results definite ly indicate the proposed name of Mt. Nittany will be defeated. . McLucas said he expected such a result at this time. He said enough voters 1 will probably change their minds by the voting date to swing the election in fav or of the new name. He also said that when his com mittee started the move for the name of Mt. Nittany, the borough residents were opposed to it about ten to one. The Daily Collegian poll show ed that of 485 voters contacted, 145 favored the change to Mt. Nit tany. 75 favored a change but did not like Mt. Nittany, 239 opposed any change, and 29 were still .un decided as to how they will vote. Dill said he questioned the con clusions drawn by the Daily Col legian. Results of the poll indicated to the Collegian that the issile would probably be decided by the voters who have not made up their minds or by those who do not like the name Mt. Nittany. Past polls conducted by the Centre Daily Times and Univer sity psychology students revealed a much greater percentage of bor ough residents opposed the name change. !
