Humble Oil and Refining
Company brought a civil suit
against another group of oil
operators. Humble says that the
operators' crooked wells ended
under an Humble lease and have

SAFETY IN AGE—If you live
to be 100, you'll be safe from
death by accidents.
State Health Department sta-
tistics reveal that not a single
Texan over 100 years of age died
in an accident in 1960.
Statistics also reveal that
there's something to what they
say about Texas weather. Deaths
from extreme heat and from
freezing both were reported dur-
ing the year.
Biggest killer for all age
groups, except those under one
and over 75, is the highway ac-
cident.
In the home, fire and explos-
ion are the biggest killers. Falls
: re in third place.
Home ranks next to the high-
way at the scene of most acci-
dental leaths.

Fight against the screwworm fly
has been extended northward.
Reason is because truck-hauled
livestock, infested with screw-
worms, crossed the control line
which was being maintained by
aerial distribution of sterile
male flies.
Texas Animal Health Commis-
sion meets on June 11 to adopt a
1-egulationi requring inspection
of livestock as they cross the
control line, and spraying them
to make sure they do not carry
the costly worms into clear
territory.
A new distribution point was
established at Conroe after out-
breaks of screwworms were re-
ported in East Texas.
The Program is a bold effort
to control this $40,00C,000-a-
yearpest. It is financed by the
federal and state governments
and by contributions from live-
stock owners. Most of the money
is federal.

MENTS—Governor Price Daniel
