Houston insuranceman Lloyd
Bentsen Jr told the association
directors the drought has reem-
phasized the need of a water sta-
bilization program in Texas.
Bentsen. former congressman
from the Valley, said. "If we
hadn't had Falcon Cam. I believe
it's safe to say we wouldn't have
had a decent crop in the Valley
in thesast three years."
Beritsen said. “Within the. MF
dets a Texas are enough water
sources to fill all .the needs of the
state.” But Bentsen said the state
only uses about 15 per cent of its
water each year. “Over -48 mil-
lion acre feet are wasted, evap-
orate or run away to mix in-the
salty waters of the Gulf.” he said
The directors held a general

WATERBURY, Conn. n-A re- -
tired utility worker was reported
l y police here today to have told
them he is the "Mad Bomber" of
_ New York.
He is George Metesky, 53, a
stocky, grey-haired Lithuanian,
who police said claimed he plant-
ed homemade bombs in New
York-because of a hatred for the
. , city’s giant utility firm, the Con-
solidated Edison Co. - 2
They quoted Metesky—as say-
ing he contracted tuberculosis
after being gassed on the job. He
said, according to police officials,
that the company gave him a raw
deal when he was placed on the
firm's compensation roles in 1941.
New York’s Chief of Detectives
James B Leggett arrived here to
question him. '
No charge was immediately
___ placed against Metesky.
Metesky was picked up shortly
after midnight at his 4th Street
home, where he lived with two
sisters
Police Capt Ernest Pakul said
his name was one of hundreds
on a list of former utility com-
pany workers who were being
checked out by New York detec-
tives..
The name “Mad Bomber” was
given by police to the person who
planted at jeast 34 bombs in pub-
lic places in New York since
1940. Several of the homemade

Police in New York have said
letters from the Med Bomber
claimed he was never compen-
sated for a crippling injury sus-

i dated Edison:
Police quoted Metesky as say-
ing that after leaving Consolidat-
ed Edison he had to go to Ari-
zona for his health. .Later he
returned to live with his sisters.
