Thief Took 'Em,
Police Ate 'Em
Fate might be said to have play-
ed a dirty trick on a tamale thief
in Gladewater earlier this wick.
After the second attempt, Victor
Gage, of Tyler succeeded in tak-
ing 14 dozen tamales and the con-
tainer from Cooper * tamale truck.
The incident occured In front ot
the fire department building at
the city hall and Gage, after at-
tempting to take the tamales prev-
iously, took the tamales from the
truck and started out the highway
toward Tyler.
i Cooper Informed the city police
department of the theft and Offi-
cers Leon Sharrock and Walter
Ooar took up the chase. They
started chasing Gage and his com-
panion Just this side of the Sabine
River brktgr and caught up with
him Just across the bridge.
In all the excitement. Gage was
unable to eat even one of the ta-
males and they were returned to
the owner who in turn gave the
police department and the fire de-
partment enough for a big tamale
supper.
Justice of the Peace Ross Delay
assessed n $200 fine plus costs
against Gage and he waa unable to
meet the payment. He was trans-
ferred to the couftty Jail in Long-
At the lime of the incident

A tribute to Rotary as a means
of better understanding among the
peoples of the world was paid by
Dr. Bruce White in his talk at
the regular Thursday noon lunch-
eon of the Gladewater Rotary
Club. Dr. White, who is dean of
the Teachers’ College, University
of Hawaii, said that he has been
a Rotarian five years, and during
a recent lengthy tour of Europe
he was able to keep up his attend-
ance record.
“I found the Rotary Clubs in
Europe most interesting, met col-
orful people, and learned things
about the various countries that
one can never get from books. In
Honolulu there are five Rotary
Clubs, meeting consecutively on
Monday through Friday, and it
is easy there to make up attend-
ance."

Former Austin Mayor Torn Mil-

Skelton recently asking that he

frequently has led money-raising
efforts for the party, said he hadn't
done anything about the request.

In speaking of the growth of
trade. Dr. White told of the san-

China, and the interest in whailing

With the development of agri-
culture there was a need for cheap
labor, so Portuguese, Chinese, Jap- '
anese, and later Filipinos were
brought in. These group were
brought in for labor, but their
children who have been educated
do not want day labor. The four
groups get along well together, all
go to schol together, and in ten
years they have advanced enough
culturally to meet standards of

Dr. White remarked that the
problems of intergroup relation-

America because all groups there
are equally educated and since
there is no one large majority
group, all get along remarkably
well together. In all relationships

As the committee moved toward
certain approval of the measure,
controversy mounted over where
to locate the proposed "West Point

be chosen. The bill's backers fear-
ed the controversy might impede
passage
Latest to propose a site for the
academy were Reps. C. J. Brown
(R.-Ohio) and Paul F. Schenck (R.-
Ohlo>, who dropped Identical bilk
in the House hopper to locate the
school “in the Miami Valley area"
of Ohio.
Dossn Other Bills
Their bill* were piled atop a
dozen or more earlier measures
naming sites for the academy, and
were expected to be followed by
others, despite pleas by Commit-
tee Chairman Dewey Short (R.-
Mo.) to postpone arguments over
the site until after the academy is
authorized. *
Air Force Secretary Harold E.
Talbott Thursday reiterated that
no site had been 'selected or had
an inside track with the Air Force
Members questioned the statement
after President Elsenhower, at a
news conference Wdnesday, ex-
pressed surprise at Talbott’s plans
to set up a new site survey board
and said he already knew exactly
where the academy ought to be
located.
Hasn’t Told Choice
The President said he hadn’t told
anybody his choice, and didn't
plan to. Talbott said he didn’t in-
tend to ask tbe President’s ad-
vice. The bill wotild give Talbott,
as Air Force secretary, authority
to make the decision.
Talbott, who said the cost of the
academy might run as high as $175
million, declared his new survey
board would Consider, but would
not be bound by, recommendations
of an earlier board. It narrowed
the choice down to seven sites:
