their plans for 1957," Flemming
said, "I was prepared on Dec. 1
to certify to the President that
oil imports did constitute a threat
to our national security."
Flemming said the plan to ship
some 500,000 barrels of oil to Eu-
rope daily "can be put into effect
without creating any shortages
in this nation. It can be done
without our contemplating the
possibility of rationing of oil in
this country.”
The ODM director also told the
conference of legislators and
state office holders that the Unit-
ed States must be prepared for a
general mobilization.

Crash Jet Plane
- CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. u
—A jet plane crashed while sim-
ulating a low-level strafing at-
tack yesterday, killing the pilot
and two of the 120 Marine in-
fantrymen deployed on a hill.
The dead were 1st Lt. David

from Burlington, Calif.; Cpl.

“condemning the American Medi-
cal Assn.'s stand tor promodera-

Taken under consideration was
her resolution to petition the
Legislature that public textbooks
“have no discussion of modera-
tion, but simply teach the stu-
dents the bad effects of alcohol.”
Only Redfearn’s Brea.d has

added; “The three boys in the
woods, it was terrible the way
they were killed," Brandenber-
ger said.
Ebert was identified as a for-
mer metal worker and gardener
from Aurora, Ill., 40 milts south-
west of Chicago.
Although Chicago police have
questioned thousasds of persons
since the slayings more than 13
months ago, they said they had
no information about Ebert, and
had no real clues to the killer or
killers.
Brandenberger said Ebert, who
was picked up on a vagrancy
charge last night, told police he
was subject to blackout spells
and had been an inmate in men-
tal institutions at Elgin, Ill., and
Camarillo, Calif.
