The fans really put it on for
Bill Conatser last night at the ban-
quet and Bill tells us he appreci-
ated it no end, even though he al-
most blushed a time or two. . . .
Your correspondent was one of
the interviewers of Conatser and
Charley Henke, over KRRV yes-
terday afternoon and the two Ag-
gie players took the thing in stride
although you could see they were
tensed more than against any
team they ever played. It was a

OPPOSITION TO

WASHINGTON, Dec. 3—Con-
gressional opposition to new Unit-^
ed States credits of $160,000,000
to China collapsed today after
Secretary of State Cordell Hull
and Treasury Secretary Henry j
'Morgenthau told the senate and
House monetary committees Am-;
erica's position in the Pacific was
at stake.
The cabinet officers appeared j
before a joint, closed meeting for|
the committees to justify, for the
guidance of congress, the impli-
cations embodied in Jthe program
which President "Roosevelt an-
nounced Saturday.
The committees — the Senate
'banking and currency committee
and the house coinage committee
—promptly gave the proposal a
unanimous vote of confidence, and
Morgenthau returned to the treas-
ury immediately to put the ne-
cessary machinery in operation.
Neither he nor Hull would dis-
cuss the session but committeemen
represented Morgenthau and Hull

AlUiS'lTN, Tex, Dec. 3—Infor-
mal conferences between state and
federal authorities regarding plans
and funds for building military
highways in Texas badly needed
in the schedule of national de-
fense have started in earnest, R.
L. Bobbitt said today. He is a
members of the state highway
commission from San Antonio,
military center of this part of the
country.
Bobbitt said definite announce-
ments may be made shortly as
progress has been made in the dis-
cussions. Some 8000 miles of
Texas highways fit into the
scheme of highway defense and
federal funds are necessary if
they are to be constructed with
expedition. The joint federal-
state program or exclusive state
construction would require many
years, it was explained, hence
federal defense funds are to be
made available once the first
needs are agreed to by army en-
gineers.
Improvement of military high-
ways was the argument made sev-
eral times Monday as the Commis-
sion- started its two-day open
session to hear delegations from
various cunties seeking highway
improvements.
Commissioner Harry Hines' six-
year <term will expire Feb. ^5 and
ths may be his next to lass session,
particularly if there is no delay in
appointing and confirming his
successor.
Immediate future highway
needs will be materially affected
by the national defense require-
ments, Hines asserted. "The needs
are recognized and appreciated in
Texas possibly more than in any
other state because we border a
foreign country, Mexico, and we
also border the Gulf of Mexico
with its possibilities," Hines said.

Comments On
Investigation
Of Milk Industry
NEW YORK, Dec. 3—Col B
F. Casle, president of the Milk
Industry Foundation, in a state-
ment today commenting on the
new Federal investigation of the
food industry said:
"Retail milk prices are determ-
ined by the price paid to fann-
ers, th wages paid to labor and
taxes and licenses paid to govern-
ment. Those three items repre-
sent about four-fifths of the total
costs which make up the ultimate
price.
"Milk distributors welcome any
impartial investigation of the
milk business feeling that every-
one should have more complete
information as to the factors
whieh, make prices.
"During the last ten years the
average price farmers received
for milk produced for sale in
fluid form has been materially
higher than prices farmers have
received for most other commodi-
ties.
"Wages paid labor by milk
companies have increased ma-
terially, as have taxes. Despite
these facts milk companies have
been aible to reduce their operat-
ing costs and have passed the
full benefit of improved operating
efficiency on to the ultimate con-
sume)'.'
Chairman
Reveals
Sabotage
Pleads For His
Committee To Be
Continued Longer
VV\°H.V:i.TON, Dec. 3—Five
acts of sabotage have been com-
mitted against an undisclosed U.
S. experimental plane factory,
Chairman Martin Dies claimed
today in appealing for continua-
tion of his committee investigat-
ing Un-American activities.
Dies refused to name when or
where the saboteurs, acted but as-
serted the acts vesultcd in an im-
portant experimental plane crack-
ing up.
"It is highly probable that a
sixth act of sabotage which went
undiscovered, wps the cause of
the plane's destruction," Dies said.
"The plant'c inspector warned ■
against the plane's leaving the1
ground, and w*ien his warning
went unheeded, he demanded a
transfer out of the experimental
department."
Citing this example to illustrate
the extreme urgency of expelling'
fifth columnists from defense in-j
dustries, Dies remarked that aj
recent commitlee investigation, (lis-i
closed tha*, a clique of German |
Nazis was en1 ployed in strategic i
positions in the plant where the;
plane crashed.
Dies' statement on the alleged
sabotage:
"An extraneous piece of metal
was placed in the machine in such |
a position that it .would jam the]
controls during fligrt.
"Later, a metal bar was spliced
in the controls themselves, which,
if it had not 'been discovered,
would have almost certainly re-
sulted in the destruction of the
plane when it was taken up.
"Still later, it was found that
bolts had been removed from the
plane's brakes.
"A fourth act of sabotage con-
sisted of tampering with the gas
gauges in such a wr.y that the
tanks would appear to have ample
fuel even though nearly empty.
"Finally, other tolts necessary
to the stopping of (he plane when
it reached the ground after flight
were found to have been remov-
ed.'
Dies said he related this inci-
dent to show "thai we cannot tol-
erate the presence of totalitarian
sympathizers in our defense indus-
tries," and that they should be re-
moved before they become overt
saboteurs.

resultant mud had held up road
work, but with return of dry
weather the work is progressing
rapidly. The roads are being

Bluebonnet Hits
Car, None Hurt;
Alliance Begins
The Denison-bound Katy Blue-

struck a 1933 sedan Monday night
about 7:20 at a grade crossing at
Royce City, according to reports
made here.
The owner of the vehicle, a!
negro, told the crew his auto had
stalled on the tracks and he was
attempting to push it off when
the Bluebonnet struck, leaving the
car completely demolished. The
train arrived at the union station
here only a few minutes late. No
one was injured.
John Dickey was engineer, H.

CARDENAS
NATIONAL
URGES
UNITY
MEXICO CITY, De. 3—Warn-
ing against Rightist trends, al-
ready evident with the incoming
of a new administration, President
Lazaro Cardenas, in a fareweil
exposition of the aims and poli-
cies of his six-year regime, voiced
a plea to the Mexican people to-
day that no effort be spared "to
attain the total unity of the Mexi-
can proletriat."
'Until this is done, he declared,
there can be no progress in the
cause of nationality.
Cardinas spoke before the na-
tional congress of the Confedera-
tion of Mexican Workers (CTM),
the powerful la>bor group which,
headed by radical, fiery-tongued
Vicente Lombardo Toledano, has
been his most potential weapon in
effecting widespread socialistic
reforms. He emphasized as the
three fundamental achievements
of this administration the return
of land to the peasants, educa-
tional reform and the oil expro-
priation.
He cited with gratification evi-
dences of continental support of
Mexico's social reforms given by
the Latin-American Popular Dem-
ocratic Front convention in Chile
recently, by Cuban workers and
by "sister nations who have seen
in our struggle their own defense
to obtain economic autonomy be-
fore the attitude of the oligarchies
who still believe that we are a
conquerable people."
It was perhaps as frank and op-
en an acknowledgement of social-
istic beliefs and labors as Mexico's
youngest president has ever made
publicly.
It is considered significant that
with the retirement of Cardenas,]
relinquishment of leadership ofj
the CTM by Toledano also will'
come. Election of new officers of
the labor organization will be held
in February and Toledano will
give way to a new man. Reliable
reports are that he will be suc-
ceeded by Fidel Velazquez, his
close associate in labor circles
since 1933.

To Board Ship
MIAMI. Fla., Dec. 3—President
Roosevelt was scheduled to arrive
here early this afternoon and im-
mediately board the warship Tus-
calooa for a jaunt into the Car-
ibbean sea.
BERLIN, Dec. 3—The German
high command today claimed at
least fifteen British ships totaling
.110,000 tons have been sunk in
the Atlantic in the past 36 hours,
while Nazi airmen bore down in
bombing of British objectives.
Mackay radio in New York has
picked up distress calls from Brit-
ish ships about 400 miles off the
coast of Ireland continuously for
almost two days and some believ-
ed the Germans were methodically
sinking an entire British convoy
one by one, utilizing planes, sur
face raiders and submarijj^s.
The Germans claimed one of
the ships sunk yesterday was the
British Caledonia, the same ves-
sel they claimed weeks ago to have
sent to the bottom of the sea.
London did not comment on the
German claims but it was almoa
certain a few of the Nazi claim;
might be true because of the nura
erous distress signals received
guard stations and passing ships.
One of the British ship crew
left a sinking vessel to be picked
up by another of the convoy and
that ship also was torpedoed by
the Germans, it was reported.
The past 36 hours has been the
most damaging similar period
since the war opened, it was as-
serted.
German bombers flew over Bris-
tol during the night and left af-
ter hours of attack with the Brit-
ish city almost in total ruins. Bri-
tain admitted the city had suffer-
ed heavy loss in property and hu-
man lives.
London had four daylight
alarms since daylight today, but
the Nazi airmen seemed to_ want
nothing more than to disrupt the
daily routines and prevent Lon-
doners from reaching their jobs
on time.
RAF fighters struck at German-
held areas in France and Rome
admitted British planes had bomb-
ed sections of Naples and Augusta
Sicily during the night and early
today.
IGreek forces were believed to
have split Italian forces in half by
driving past the Albanian city of
Porto Edda, breaking Italian com-
munications between there ' and
Argyrokestron. Military observ-
ers believed if this happened, the
Greeks stand a good chance of
driving the Italians fropi Albania.
The Greeks were said to domi-
nate the entire Porto Edda sector
now, but Rome claimed Italian
forces had repulsed Greek attacks
and successfully counterattacked.
Italian planes bombed the Greek
island of Corfu.
Germany moved a large num-
ber more troops into Rumania to
quell disturbances there and King
Michael was said to be under close
protective custody to prevent any
attempt on his life.
The axis was preparing, inform-
ed circles said, to demand that
Yugoslavia provide food for Ital-
ian forces in Albania this winter.
Engineer Quits
For CAA Job
Walter A. Morgan, connected
with the Red River review report
section of the U. S. engineer of-
fice since it was established here
in 1938, has resigned to accept a
position with the Civil Aeronau-
tics Administration, it was an-
nounced today.
Mr. Morgan will report for duty
today at the administration's Fort
Worth office and will conduct sur-
veys for suitable airport construc-
tion in Texas until January when
he will be transferred to a similar
position at Alaska. He was
transferred from the Little Rock
