Before getting under way with
the more formal business sched-
uled for discussion here today,
I’d like to take just a few min-
utes to remind you that on New
Year’s Day, Lone Star Steel ob-
served its 13th anniversary as
a private enterprise.
Our full history goes back a
bit further, but it was on Jan-
uary 1, 1948, that we took title
to a property which, prior to
that time, had been under the
protective wing of the federal
government.
The real purpose of these pre-
l.minary remarks is to recognize

but of little interest nationally.

When other reporters tried to
ask her why she had brought up
tills question, or if she was wor-
ried lest a libel or slander suit
be filed, she said she felt it
would be foolish for her to make
any comments now

WASHINGTON ( - Nobody—

the United States — has ever
been able to ignore Sarah Mc-
Clendon.
This plump, reddish-haired
< orrespondent for 94 newspapers
from Texas to New England
has always had a knack of irri-

At Wednesday's presidential
news conference she suddenly
changed John F. Kennedy’s

control manor to quiet, cold
fury. __________
As she often does, Mrs. Mc-
Clendon began her question by
stating as an accepted fact
something a president might
not agree with at all.
