After six years of litigation, the U.
S. Supreme Court rules the govern-
ment blameless for the tragic 1947
Texas City explosion which cost 570
lives and caused tremendous prop-
erty damage.
Now three Texans have framed a
bill which, in effect, would reverse
the court.
The bill would load the full cost of
the blast—perhaps $200 million—on
the taxpayers.
The bill is generously comprehen-
sive. Insurance companies would get
$40 million, half a dozen or so big in-
dustrial concerns almost $75 million.
Even the lawyers who handled the
claims would come in for $30 million.
This whole thing amounts to noth-
ing more than a reckless raid on the

DETROIT. — The trend toward
“open living” in residential design is
being followed by “open traveling.”
At least, this is suggested by fig-
ures from the Chevrolet Motor Di-
vision which show record-breaking
convertible model activity.
According to T. H. Keating, gener-
al manager of the company, convet-
ible output in the first six months of
1955 model production was approxi-
mately double the 1954 model expe-
rience.
“As a matter of fact,” Keating
added, “we have already produced
more convertibles than in the entire
model year of 1954.”
Keating said that while the low,
fleet styling of 1955 models lent it-

public treasury.
The Administration, fortunately, is
fighting back. The Justice Dept., the
Army, and the Budget Bureau all
have hoisted warning signals. This
bill won’t slide through, as personal
give-away bills so often have.
But actually, the bill itself is a
monstrous warning of just how far
the business of using the public
treasury as a personal checking ac-
count can go.
The idea of running to the govern-
ment for a private bailout already is
dangerously embedded in every-
body’s thinking. Increasingly, con-
gressmen and senators are competi-
tively eager to do everything they
can for the home folks, and hang the
cost.
It’s only money,
so much money.
Mrs. N. A. Deaton has returned

that she has a new great grand child,

Easley of Grand Prairie. This gives

Television sets need electricity to
operate—but not the kind they get
when the TV antenna falls across a
high voltage line!
In the fringe reception areas espe-
cially, where the TV towers reach
like countless fingers to the sky, a
•closer look will show that many of
them are within falling reach of
power lines.
While it is true that the antennas
supported by pipe are guyed three or
four ways, and that the self-support-
ing type of tower is supposed to
withstand um-teen miles an hour
winds, who can tell what stress they
will take a few years after corrosion
and decay have begun?
When a TV antenna falls on a pow-
er line, exactly what will happen is

WASHINGTON.—Minimum 1955-
crop wheat price support rates will
range from $2.33 to $1.57 a bushel in
commercial growing areas, the Agri-
cultural Department said Tuesday.
Support rates in non-commercial
areas will range from $2.33 to $1.16 a
bushel. Last year, the commercial
area rate ranged from $2.52 to $1.68.

THIS SUMMER IT’S SALMON in a cool, refreshing salmon salad,
loaded with nutrition, with body building protein and with that appe-
tite appealing salmon flavor. Canned salmon is a treat to use in hot
summer weather because it’s ready to serve as it comes from the can.
The succulent chunks make delicious eating served plain or with lemon
or lime juice. Or combine with fresh garden vegetables as in this
salad platter.
WASHINGTON.—Korean war GIs
are not “milking” the unemployment
benefits set up to help them shift to
civilian life, a Labor Department of-
ficial indicated Monday.
Robert C. Goodwin, head of the
department’s bureau of employment
security, said a check showed 33 per-
cent of the Korean veterans drawing
federal unemployment compensation
have used less than $100 and only 15
percent have used between $600 and
the maximum $676.
Only 2.4 percent of the 3,500,000
Korean veterans had used up their
GI unemployment payments.
We got nails and we got shingles;
got tar paper to keep out storms;
We got lath and we got wall board,
insulation to keep you warm;
We got oil to oil the hinges,
putty, and paint, and window panes;
And in case you’re tuckered out,
we can lead you to a guy that ain’t.

“Ready-made” protection does not do you
justice. This agency is equipped by training
and knowledge to measure your individual
requirements and to CUSTOM-TAILOR
a program of complete protection that real-
ly fits your needs. No obligation to consult
us, so why not talk it over at your conveni-
ence?
anybody’s guess — the results are
bound to be far from good! The TV
set will probably be ruined, fire may
break out, people may be electro-
cuted.
Many local codes prohibit the erec-
tion of antenna towers within falling-
reach of power lines. Other codes
require an additional guy oppsite the
power line.
To protect life and property, select
a safe location for your TV antenna
Warn tower erectors of any nearby
lines. If the hazard has been over-
looked and the installation is already
completed with your antenna in fall-
ing reach of a power line, better con-
sider having it moved to a safer lo-
cation. Otherwise a sudden summer
storm may suddenly interrupt a good
TV program—and at the same time,
interrupt your life in a dangerous
and costly way!

By some sort of statistical black
magic, the Commerce Dept, an-
nounces the country’s 165 millionth
resident arrived at 51 minutes and 51
seconds after 8, on the morning of
May 27. Oh, yes, that’s Eastern
Standard Time.
The department didn’t go to the
bother of identifying the nation’s 165
millionth citizen by name. Thus any
baby born at precisely 8:5114 a.' m.
can claim the credit and since they
say that all babies born these days
are either neurotics, phychotics or
future psychiatrists, we sure hope
he’s the latter.
A neurotic, you know, builds cas-
tles in the-air; a psychotic lives in
’em, but a psychiatrist is the fellow
who collects the rent on ’em.
Baby No. 165 million will certainly
need all the rent he can collect to pay
his inherited share of the national
debt.
■
self particularly well to the lines of
the convertible, he did not feel this;
the complete answer to booming con-
vertible demand. A wide variety of
new and livelier colors and the en-
hancement of two-tone “vertical’r
color application should be given,
some credit, he declared.

(Texarkana Gazette)
By pouring more and more money
into political campaigns, organized
labor is promoting a reaction which
may prove unpalatable to union lead-
ers. An intensive study is under way
to find means of stopping practices
designed to influence election de-
cisions by money alone.
If union leaders, with hundreds of
millions of dollars at their command,
have become the chief offenders,
they will encourage mounting hostile
public sentiment.
During the regime of the elder La-
Follette in Wisconsin a half century
ago a law was passed in that state
barring corporations from contribut-
ing to campaign funds. Public pol-
icy then was directed toward curbing
the excesses of the “trusts.”
Now Wisconsin is acting again.
The state legislature has passed a bill
making it illegal for labor organiza-
tions to contribute to political cam-
paigns.
~ It is traditional American policy
to fight undue concentrations of - eco-
nomic power wherever found,. An
individual or group with too much
power is a threat to every citizen.
America has survived as the bastion
of freedom by keeping the power-
hungry cut down to size.
If labor leaders now fit the defi-
nition of greedy authoritarians, they
certainly will be next in line.
