other dead man.
It has been an effort to go on in
everyday life since the loss of my
dad, my little dog, plus my broken
left leg. It has been seven months
since the accident and I am still
wearing a cast and using crutches
to walk.
We had liability insurance on our
car but the 22-year-old-boy that
was in such a haste and caused
the wreck did not have any in-
surance. All he was given by the
law for his mistake was a two-day
jail sentence and a $50 fine.
Sometimes I get real mad just
thinking of it all.
I spent a total of 45 days in the
Oakdale. La. clinic and not one
time did this driver who wrecked
us bodily and financially even
make one (rip to offer help. Nei-
ther has hisrparents who I’m told
are well off financially.
My husband was not at fault in
causing the wreck and a ticket
was not issued to him. Due to this
fact our insurance didn’t pay for
the death of my dad but they did
pay for his funeral.
I could write a book on my ex-
perience and suffering but during
this whole drawn out affair I try
to bear my cross alone. By the
help of God I hope someday to

But his brakes got so hot they
set the car on fire. A passing

freight train stopped and the crew
used its hand extinguishers in a
vain effort to quell the flames.
The Tylers lost their car, lug-

equipment. A fire truck dis-
patched from Springville gave
them a lift into town.

BANQUET WITHOUT SPEECH
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Dele-
gates to the annual convention of
the National Model Railroad
Assn, are in for a surprise-
there’ll be no banquet speaker.
Edward R. Campbell,, local chair-
la rgest ever undertaken.
Authorities hope the work in
turning Lake Hachirogata into a
food-producing area will be com-
pleted in seven years.
They expect to raise at least
two million bushels of rice, still
the nation’s staple food, from 32,-
000 acres of the reclaimed land,
using 10,000 more for housing and
other agricultural purposes.
The lake in north Honshu is 14
feet deep at its deepest, and cov-
ers 85 square miles.
The governmrot has put aside
- 54 million dollars to reclaim it.

ropist.
Almost immediately, things
started going wrong.
Field's business partner died
and the fledgling cable promoter
had to return to papermaking for
a time.
Then there was the matter of
wiring St. John’s, Newfoundland,
to Nova Scotia, which took two
years and most of the'company's
funds.
Field went to England Ind or-
ganized the Atlantic Telegraph
Co. with British investors. Author
William Thackeray was one of the
stockholders.
The excursion to Britain also
brought technical asai stance from
William Thomson, whose work in
physics earned him the title Lord
Kelvin; and Charles Bright, who
became engineer-In-Chief of the
project. The English promoter,
John W. Brett, an associate of
Field's, had pioneered with the
first cable linking Britain and
France across the English Chan-
nel.
Although the astronomer royal.
Sir G. B. Airy, pronounced it
mathematically impossible, the
British government agreed to
furnish ships and pay a subsidy
for official messages.
Field, buttonholing congressmen
frantically, wrung- similar aid
from a doubtful U.S. government.
After a round of eanquets and
speeches, the USS Niagara and
the HMS Agamemnon sailed from
Valentia, Ireland, Aug. 6, 1957.
The Niagara was laying the first
section of cable; the Agmemnon
would finish the job after a mid-
ocean splice.
Five miles out the cable caught
in the Niagara's machinery. The
ships returned to Ireland, made
repairs and set sail again with
Field, desperately seasick, hover-
ing over every move.
Four days and 380 miles later. a
big wave lifted the Niagara, the
cable went taut, snapped and was
lost irretrievably in 2,000 fathoms.
The project was postponed for
another year and Field went back
dejectedly to New York to get his
failing pipermaking company
back on its feet. . •
The next year, armed with a
lighter, more flexible cable, 3,000
miles long. Field and his as-
sociates were back in Britain
ready to begin again.
There was a Variation in the
laying plans, too. The Niagara
and the Agamemnon were to pro-
ceed to midocean, splice their sec-
tions and sail in opposite direc-
tions.
The splice was made in late
June, 1858. The Niagara set sail
for Newfoundland; the Agamem-
non for Ireland. Six miles from
the starting point, the Niagara’s
section snapped.
The ships rejoined each other.
The cable was respliced. They
were 80 miles apart when again
the cable broke near the Ni-
agara's end.
Another resplicing—and still an-
other break, this time after 200
miles of cable had been played
out.
Discouraged company directors
wanted to abandon the whole
thing. But Field. pointing out that
enough cable remained, talked
them into another try.
There were no cheers at the
dock as the ships, manned by
grim crews, set out from Queens-
town Ireland for a final attempt.
The splice was mads July 28. The
Niagara and the Agamemnon
parted. Tension was almost as
tangible as the thin wire played
out from the laying machinery.
The two ships communicated
with each other by way Of the
cable but the eager outside world
