Liberal House Democrats push for steering committee
In Washington, the House Democratic liberal group backs a democratically elected steering committee to advise on policy. Speaker John McCormack privately agreed to move the machinery within a week or ten days, though he publicly voiced lukewarm support and said a policy committee is out. Rep. Chet Holifield and Rep. Henry Reuss defend a distinct steering body with regional representation and caucus-derived power, while maintaining the Rules Committee as is.

False alarm at First National Bank prompts police sweep
A burglar alarm at the new First National Bank building on North Lincoln triggered a brief police response last night. Investigators found no wrongdoing as the malfunctioning system proved prone to false alarms during installation. In Chanute a woman borrowed a car, drove off, and returned it two and a half hours later after her husband alerted police. A Bible found among trash sparks memories of Sen. Jim Finley’s Chanute era, noting his 1920 and 1924 state senate elections and WWI service.
