Leaders Disputing
By UNITED PRESS
Senatorial candidate Lindley
Beckworth charged In a talk at
Bryan Wednesday that "hundreds
of thousands—if not millions—of
letters are being sent out of Aus-
tin by one of his opponents con-
taining scurrilous and untrue sub-
let matter."
^ Beckworth mentioned no names.
He said the "smear" letters have
no return address and that it
would cost $30,000 to send out a
million of these letters.
The Gladewater congressman,
seeking promotion to the seat Sen.
Tom Connally will vacate in Jan-
uary raised the question who is
paying the bill and why?" He an-
swered the question by saying the
reason there is no return address
is because the sender is ashamed
♦of it.
For the second time in three
weeks, Texas will send two separ-
ate delegations to a national party
nominating convention at Chicago.
The only question in the latest
Texas delegate dispute, leaders of
the "regular" Democratic delega-
tion said Tuesday, is whether the
m jority rules.
The so-called "regulars," the
unpledged delegation led by Gov.
Allan Shivers, released the brief it
igwill present to the nationl Demo-
cratic executive committee.
Shivers, meanwhile, observed his
third anniversary as the state's
chief executive by calling upon
Tekans to vote him a second elec-
tive term on the basis of his rec-
ord of "real progress."
Asks Tidelands Plank
The most active of Shivers' two
opponents in his bid for re-election,
former Travis County District
Judge Ralph Yarborough, spoke
^Simultaneously at Waco, where he
called for a raise of "at least"
$410 a year in Texas teachers'
salaries.
On the Republican "harmony"
side, Carlos Watson, the protege of
the later R. B. Creagera nd Henry
Zweifel, deposed national GOP
committeeman from Texas, opened
his campaign for the state chair-
manship against Alvin Lane of
Dallas. Lane is favored for the job
since the "new guard" of the Re-
publican party in Texas was ele-
Vvated to the throne by the nomina-
tion of Eisenhower as presidential
candidate.
Watson, of Brownsville,, echoed
retiring State Chairman Orville
Bullington's plea for harmony.
Watson said he was willing for
Lane and other Eisenhower back-
ers of Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio
have been keeping the organization
together for 20 years and want to
share as Republicans in carrying
the state for Eisenhower."

Burleson Defends His
Record In Talk Here
Advocates Defense
Funds But Opposes
Acheson's Policies
Congressman Omar Burleson
brought his campaign to Sweetwa-
ter Tuesday night, addressing a
rally on the court house lawn. Bur-
leson said, "I am proud to run on
my record and glad to accept the
challenge of my opponent to de-
bate our records."
Reviews Record
Reviewing his record, Burleson
said that he had been for perma-1
nent and lasting peace and felt that
the only road to peace is strength.
Preparedness is the "only irisur- j
ance against war. It is expensive
but if you don't have this insur-
ance when you need it money won't
buy it. It nauseated me to vote for
$56 billion for the armed forces but
there was no other way. Another
war would so cripple, maim and
burn out our country that nobody
would win; our dollars wouldn't be
worth much then."
He said the economy must be
kept strong despite the prepared-
ness need and taxes have reached
the saturation point. He opposes
"handouts" at home or abroad. "I
have felt that we need better lead-
ership in our foreign policy. I voted
a resolution asking that Secretary
Acheson be removed and after it
failed 1 appealed to Acheson in a
letter asking him to resign. My op-
ponent says if he were elected he
would demand that Acheson resign,
not appeal to him. He should be
running for president, not con-
gress."
Big Government
Burleson opposed "big govern-
ment" which he said leads toward
welfare stateism that reaches into
the lives and business of the peo-
ple. He said he had supported the
Hoover Commission recommenda-
tions of which 60 per cent have been
adopted; if all are finally adopted
"the estimate of savings will be $6
billion a year." He said he had
supported the return of the tide-
lands and had supported the oil in-
dustry.
Declaring that he had never be-
fore said a derogatory word about
an opponent, his opponent in this
race "has challenged a comparison
of records." He said he accepts
this. "He holds me responsible for
our foreign policy—and I suppose
lor the corruption in Washington. I
have opposed our foreign policy all
the way. In 1950 the Texas Legis-
lation passed a resolution assuring
the state is solidly behind the Tru-
man administration and Jack Cox

Byrd Wins With
Landslide Vote
RICHMOND, Va., July 16 (IP)—
Virginia's anti-Truman Democrats
celebrated Wednesday the primary
election landslide victory of Sen.
Harry F. Byrd as a mandate for
him to carry on a fight against
waste in government.
Byrd, overwhelmingly renomi-
nated for a fourth full Senate teim,
expressed amazement at defeating
by "such a large majority" Col.
Francis Pickens Miller, who had
bitterly attacked "the Byrd ma-
chine" in Virginia.
Campaign leaders called Byrd's
renomination, tantamount to elec-
tion in Virginia, a "triumph of all
that Senator Byrd stands for," and
a repudiation by Virginia of polic-
ies of the Truman administration.
New Moves
Indicated
In Truce
PANMUNJOM, July 16 (IB—Two
surprise moves by the Communists
indicated Wednesday a major
break may be imminent in the Ko-
rean truce negotiations.
In apparently related actions,
the Chinese Communists decided to
recognize the Geneva convention
for the treatment of war prisoners,
and Hed truce negotiators asked
for a further two-day recess in the
the armistice talks here.
An important development seem-
ed likely when the two sides meet
next at 11 a. m. Friday 8 p. m.
est Thursday. The session presum-
ably will be secret, as were the 10
meetings preceding the recess
which began Monday.
Radio Peiping broadcast Chinese
Communist Premier Chou En-Lai's
recognition of the Geneva conven-
tion. A few hours later, Commun-
ist liaison officers asked a two-day
recess called at their request. Both
sides were to have met again Wed-
nesday.
UN spokesmen had no comment
to make on the meaning of the
Peiping broadcast.
Observers here were convinced
the Reds either were preparing to
make a new proposal or working
over a United Nations suggestion
that a neutral "protecting power"
be called in to mediate the prison-
er exchange deadlock.
Democrat
Platform
Started
Civil Rights Will
Be Touchy Section
Of Deliberations
CHICAGO, July 16 (IP! — Demo-
crats, moving with the gingerly
approach of a bomb disposal crew,
began work on a party platform
Wednesday with an even stronger
Civil Rights plank than the one that
blew up the 1948 convention.
If the left gets it, there probably
will be another Southern bolt.
A 21-member preliminary draft-
ing committee under House Demo-
cratic leader John W. McCormack
of Massachusetts began four days
of televised public hearings Wed-
nesday.
It will make its recommendations
to the convention platform and res-
olutions committee, which in turn
will send the finished product to
the convention Wednesday, July
23
It was the Civil Rights issue, sub-
ject of Thursday's hearings, that
caused party leaders the most head-
aches. Some top Democrats, believ-
ing the party cannot toss away 39
electoral votes as it did in 1948 in
the nixie walkout, have been try-
ing for a quiet compromise.

DIES OF BURNS
HOUSTON, July 16 <lPi—'Two-year-

Jefferson Davis hospital early Wed-
nesday from burns suffered Tues-
day night when the family garage
caught on fire despite the heroic
work of a neighbor who pulled the
boy from the flames.
when two officers of the early
watch heard the train racing south.
The Orleek sped south along the
coast, smashed the tracks in front
of the train and derailed the last
car to prevent the train from es-
caping by backing up.
The Orleck's guns and Navy
planes them hammered the train
into junk, blowing up 14 cars of
ammunition, one flat car hauling
tanks and five others carrying 14
heavy-caliber artillery pieces.
Night-flying planes from the car-1
riers Princeton and Bon Homme
Richard, which swarmed in on the
train after the Orleek stopped it,
later went on to hammer power
plants at Chosen with bombs and
bullets.

Large Crowd
At PCA Meet
Farmers and ranchers and their
families from six counties gathered
here Wednesday at the 18th annual
meeting of the Sweetwater Produc-
tion Credit Association at the Mu-
nicipal Auditorium with a barbe-
cue at city park at noon.
Some 1800 were registered.
President Walter Boothe welcom-
ed the visitors to Sweetwater "to
get acquainted and to review your
association's business for 1951." He
pointed out that the members had
built $863,000 in capital and re-
serves through buying stock and
foregoing dividends and said "this
will really be needed in this sec-
ond year of drouth."
A. C. Bishop, manager of the
Board of City Development, wel-
comed the visitors and Director E.
W. Wiman of Roscoe reported on
the board's work for the year. He
said losses on loans have been
"practically nil compared with the
money loaned but we must operate
soundly under today's conditions.
Last year we made approximately
1,018 loans for a total of $5,186,000.
Collections were $3,901,000."
O. H. Berry, secretary-treasurer,
reported on operations and urged
that the member-owned capital be
built to a total of $1,000,000. The

Labor Opposes Nixon
CIO Leader Believes
WASHINGTON. July 16 IIP) — A
top CIO political leader said Wed-
nesday that, so far as labor votes
are concerned, Sen Richard M.
Nixon will be an "albatross"
around the neck of Dwight D. Ei-
senhower in the Republican presi-
dential campaign.
Jack Kroll, director of the CIO
political action Committee, said Ei-
senhower lost all hope of winning
any substantial labor support when
he picked the young Californian as
his running mate.
Another record-breaking week of
dread poliomyelitis appeared as-
sured for Texas Wednesday.
Incidence of the disease also in-
creased throughout the Southwest
as five new cases pushed Okla-
homa's count to 159 so far this
year, 68 more than at th's time a
year ago, and the 1952 toll in Kan-
sas soared to 80 with four new
cases. For a similar period of 1951,
Kansas had only 30 polio victims.
Houston, hardest hit city in the
hardest-hit state, had 15 new cases
of polio diagnosed Tuesday. At
Fort Worth, the City-County Hos-
pital announced its polio ward was
| so overtaxed that only critically ill
victims may stay past 15 days.
Tuesday's new cases at Houston
pushed the number treated at its
two centers so far this year to 521.
Some 58 persons were under treat-
ment for polio at Fort Worth, five
of them in iron lungs. At Dallas,
88 persons were being treated and
56 polio victims were hospitalized
in the Lower Hio Grande valley.
Sees Danger From
Any Slackening Of
Bi-Partisan Stand
During Campaign
WASHINGTON, July 16 (IP)—■Sen.
Alexander Wiley urged the admin-
istration Wednesday to consult with
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower to
make sure that a bi-partisan battle
against Communism continues
though the election campaign.
The Wisconsin Republican, in a
direct split with the "minority" iso-
lationist wing of his party, asked
for an agreement between the two
major political parties to prevent
an election year "vacuum" which
\ might invite a "knockout blow"
I from Russia.
Wiley, ranking Republican on the
; Senate Foreign Realtions commit-
tee, said his plan seeks to avoid
I "uncertainty and indecision" and
' any let-up in the battle against
Communism oetween now and next
; Jan. 20.
In a statement, Wiley urged Pres-
i ident Truman and Secretary of
! State Dean Acheson to "invite" Ei-
! esnhower to confer on "continuing
international problems and chal-
i lenges that may arise between now
] and next inauguration day."
He said he assumes Eisenhower
! will be elected president in Novem-
! ber. But he said that even if the
Democrats expect to win they
should agree to the consultations to
j prevent Russia from seeking to
I "exploit" the election compaign.

Squalls On Coast As
Weather Stays Upset
By United Press
A "hurricane hunting" naval pi-
lot was scheduled to take off from
Corpus Christi, Tex., again early
Wednesday in search for any "cy-
lonic circualtion" in a series of
squalls battering the Southwestern
coast of the Gulf of Mexico.
The squalls along the Texas and
Louisiana coast accompanied an
outbreak of cantankerous weather
over Texas and drouth-breaking
rains in Oklahoma.
U. S. weather bureau forecasters
at Houston and Dallas said, how-
ever, there was no evidence yet the
two squall lines moving westward
toward the Texas Gulf coast would
develop into hurricanes although
both represent the type of flat low
pressure area which later in the
season does produce severe storms.
Oklahoma topped the Southwest
for rain and farmers said cotton
and feed crop prospects were great-
ly boosted as rainfall ranging up to
the
3.50 inches at Lawton soaked
state.
The rain came too late, however,
to help Oklahoma's corn and truck
crops.
Snyder Thunderstorms
Increased thunderstorm activity
also dumped heavy rain on Snyder-
iTex., for 45 minutes, where there
| hs been little or no rain since last
I September.
Texas Highway Patrolman E. W.
Green and his patrol car were
caught up in a swirling wall of
water which swept down a drain-
age creek near Snyder, but the of-
ficer fought his way out of the auto-
mobile and swam to safety some
150 yards from where he was swept
away. A sudden storm also dumped
hail stones three-fourths inch in
diameter on Wichita Falls. Tex.,
streets.
Cloudy skies and rain from the
Gulf squall lines spread westward

Steel Negotiations
Still Bogged Down
PITTSBURGH, July 16 (IP)—1The
latest round of joint negotiations
to settle the 45-day steel strikes has
ended in failure, and it appeared
Wednesday the government would
have to make another effort to get
the opposing sides together again.
The industry blamed Tuesday's
negotiation collapse on the insist-
j ence of the CIO Uni'pd Steelwork-
ers for a "compulsory" union shop
and claimed the union would not
discuss the walkout of 23,000 iron
ore workers until the union shop
; issue had been solved.
The iron ore workers joined the
| steel strike on June 2. Industry
sources ?iave urged the union to
1 permit the shipment of ore into the
mills to prevent a serious short-
age this winter, even if the steel
dispute is settled.
Union President Philip Murray
countered the company charges by
■ terming the industry's latest of-
fer "inadequate and unsatisfac-
tory," and accused the industry of
handing out "distorted propagan-
da" on the union shop issue.
Flying Saucers In
Sky Bewildering
MIAMI, Fla., July 16 (IP)—'Two
veteran airline pilots added to the
flying saucer lore Wednesday ac-
counts of seeing huge discs zipping
in formation at supersonic speed
near Norfolk, Va.
Pilots W B. Nash, 35, and W. H.
Fortenberry, 30, of Pan American
Airways, said the "glowing, or-
ange red" saucers maneuvered too
sharply for human endurance at a
speed of "far above 1,000 miles per
hour."
"Whoever was in those things,"
the pilots declared, "had capabili-
ties far beyond our own. Those
things absolutely did not contain
any human beings as we know
them."
First they flew in an echelon
formation—a diagonal straight line
—at about 2,000 feet altitude, Nash
said. As the DC-4 passed over
them, he said, turned sharply west-
wi"-d and were joined by two other
dists. He said the eight "saucers"
zoomed upward to an estimated
10,000 feet altitude.
Circling the square
A token bearing the inscription
"Gut Fur Glas Bier" showed up
in a Sunbeam cash register this
week. Translated into English the
inscription means, "Good for a
glass of beer' . . . Mrs Berta Pate
recently returned from a trip to
Germany . no connection with
the token, however.
Weldon Patterson has joined the
ranks of a iowiy newspaperman . .
he represents the circulation de-
; partment of the Star Telegram.
In 1896 there were only four au-
tos in this country . . . just imag-
ine. only four back-seat drivers.
State and county political pot is
beginning to simmer a little now
that the Republican convention is
over. Next week, however, the dem-
ocratic convention gets under way
and. in all likelihood, will capture
the spotlight: making it difficult
for local politicians to do any pro-
fitable campaigning.
