some observations and suggestions Think them through and
see what their accomplishment will mean for Cleburne
(Those not given today will be listed later).
1. Many capable business leaders must discard and for-
get existent jealousies and hatreds. They must form the
habit of working together for the good of Cleburne. Too
many good leader* want to "run" things from their office
“arm chairs” but not actually do much of the necessary
work of meeting, planning and thrashing out highly impor-
tant decisions and details. They must be consulted, they feel,
but are “too busy” to get aroud.to helping on the project.
Cfvie committees must’gef fT of the “talking stage" on
betterment projects. They must be willing to meet, many
times, to formulate plans, and put them on paper and before
the public and go on in a direct line of action to achieve pro-
jects for Cleburne. Something is wrong when it is talked
about town what should or should not be done, and, yet only
a FEW of the Chamber of Commerce committees appointed
for 1946, have even held a meeting. Many of these com-
mitteemen want progress, they say
2. It is a downright and crying shame for a city like
Cleburne to be- operating on an antequated, out-of-date and
obsolete city charter. Two big divisions of our community's
welfare depend on this point. First, the schools and then the
city government itself.

Mayor DeGarmo gave additional
information concerning the amend-
ment to the ordinance concerning
growing of .shrubs near streets and
intersections.
He says that the amendment pro-
vides that trees which extend over
the street must be trimmed to a
height of 19 feet and eight feet
above the sidewalks. Hedges must
not be allowed to grow out into
sidewalks and must be kept trimmed
inside of sidewalks.
Hedge growths near street inter-
sections cannot be more than four
feet above the level of the public
driveway or street. Hedges must
not extend right to the corner of
ah intersection. They must be kept
15 feet from the intersection so as
to allow approaching eara a vjew
of the cross streets. ,
Mayor James DeGarmo thought it
wise to advise residents of Cleburne
and out-lying territory that many
alleys in the residential section are
now blocked off by fences These
alleys should be opened so that gar-
bage and trash can be taken from
the alley rather than from the front

PEIPING. July 30. (U.P—-Fifty
truckloads of U. S. Marines rolled
out of Tientsin today in pursuit
of Chinese Communists who killed
four Marines and wounded from 12
to 16 others, in a surprise attack on
a truck convoy yesterday.
Two officers in a command car
were leading an 11-truck convoy
from the Marine base at Tientsin
to Peiping when the ambush occur-
red. 25 miles east of Peiping. The
Communists reportedly opened fire
with automatic weapons and tossed
hand grenades into the Marine
trucks. •
The Marines reportedly returned
the fire. Morning newspapers in
Peiping said the fight lasted "a con-
siderable length of time” and that
one company of Marines was rushed
to the area from Peiping.
Approximately 100 marines were
believed to have been in the truck
convoy. Their Communist attackers
reportedly numbered 300. ,
Chinese Nationalist troops sent re-
inforcements to the Peiping area
after the attack was reported, ac-
cording to Peipig newspapers.
First reports of tbe incident yes-
terday indicated that Marines were
traveling on a Chinese train, but
persons arriving from the scene said
they were in a truck convoy. There
was no immediate statement from
Marine headquarters.

PARIS, July 30. 9M—Secretary
of State James F. Byrnes today
pledged that the United States
would work to obtain Big Four ap-
proval of any peace conference
recommendations which win approv-
al by a two-thirds vote of the 21
participating nations.
Addressing the second session of
the Paris peace conference, Byrnes
reiterated earlier promises that th
little nations would have full op-
portunity of presenting their views
and promised that the Big Four
would not arbitrarily reject any )
conference recommendations.
‘ Byrnes’ pledge was given after he
had won a surprise victory for full
publicity on the proceedings of the
conference committee. . He was un-
expectedly joined in this fight by

which will stand guard against re-

Before the second day’s session
began, a sudden strike by French

workers just about isolated dele-
gates from contact with each other
for 10 hours and Paris itself was in
a state of confusion.
The strike ended two hours before
the peace session opened but tele-
phone service was not expected," to
return to normal before late to-
night. Foreign calls were not af-
fected, - but peace delegates could
not call colleagues by telephone,
though they were only a few blbcks
away.
The strike was called to back up
demands for higher wages.
Opan Diplomacy
The fight for open diplomacy, .
sparked by Byrnes, appeared virtu-

up to the press of possibly all the
working committees of the confer-
ence. including those which will

A FUTURE FOR CLEBURNE
The future prosperity, deylopment and progress of Cle-
burne depends upon what is dohe about it at the immediate
present. Opportunity, the like of which Cleburne has never
seen, is knocking now. Cleburpe’s grwth and expansion de-
pends upon business, professjonal men, citizens and indus-
trialists close cooperation and whether or not they will now
throw off the cloak of complacency—and roll up their sleeves
and go to work now—to build a better city
If business men of Cleburne continue to follow their
present hit and miss eradic path of improving conditions in
Clebunre then ten years from bow—it might be earlier—the
business people, and citizen* in general will come to life.
They will start yelling about community progress, about
getting more trade, about locating new industries.
“What has happened,” they will ask, "that the period
of post-war prosperity has come and gone, and Cleburne
has not made any strides ok sound development and pro-
