‘he Flamingo Club, Gulf States
Utilities Co. facUities and a bill-
board drew questions in the city
this week.
Fire Chief Vertis Sands, in ex-
plaining the department’s action,
said the truck had been dispatch-
ed across the river in a “stand-
by" capacity. However, he admit-
ted it did use city equipment to
pour water on the marsh fire as
it approached the electric power
lines and the sign board.
“We did not do anything at the
Flamingo Club, they used their
own water line,” Sands explained.
However, critics of the fire de-
partment’s action reminded that
the city had established a policy
several years ago of not crossing
the river with its fire fighting
equipment unless “lives were en
dangered.’’
Fire Chief Sands said the truck
Mayor Caillavet was unavailable
for comment ••
City Commissioner W. J. Mul-
lins. who was on the commission
when the policy was established
(he said it was during Raymond
Sanders’ term as mayor), said the
city commission, by resolution,
had ordered its fire trucks to re-
main on the Texas side of the Sa-
bine.
He said the understanding was
they wouldn’t cross the river ex-
cepting in grave emergency and
when “lives were endangered.”
However, Mullins said he didn’t
necessarily conform to the idea.
“Personally,’' he commented, “I
don’t think we should let things
burn. But, that was our policy and
we should be sticking by it.”
Commissioner George Colburn
was unfamilisr with the policy
and said it had never been dis-
cussed while he was at City Hall.
However, he commented, “It look*
to me that unless it is an emer-
gency we hadn’t ought to go.”
Told it was a marsh fire sweeping
toward the buildings Colburn’s at-
titude was the situation was not
an “emergency.”
Commissioner E. M. Childers
had no comment on the matter ex-
cepting to say it hadn't been dis-
cussed while he served oa the
commission.
Commissioner Sid Johnson was
not available for comment.
McCarthy Not Mentioned by Name
Ike Raps 'Disregard'
Of Fair Play Standards
WASHINGTON (AP)—President Elsenhower hit out today at
‘ disregard of the standard* of fair play’’ in congressional investiga-
tions, and declared that no one in the armed force* is required to
submit “to any kind of personal humiliation” before investigating
committees.

sign or through carelessness we
use methods that do not conform
to the American sense of justice
and fair play.” ■_
The President did not mention
Sen. McCarthy (R-Wis) by name,
but there could be no doubt he
was aiming at him, for the Pres-
ident coupled his remarks about
congressional investigations with
praise for Brig. Gen. Ralph
Zwicker.
It was MiCarthy’s treatment of
Zwicker, commandant at Camp
Kilmer, NJ., which touched off
the heated row of the last two
weeks between McCarthy and Sec-

CSC Hears Report
On Youth Facilities
The Community Service Council
today at noon heard reports on
die possibility of establishing a
youth center here.
County Judge Charlie Grooms
who heads a CSC committee
studying the possibility, arranged
for a program which outlined the
activities of the Jaycee “Orange
Crate" operated for about eight
months last year.
Judge Grooms said his com-
mittee has “found it almost im-
possible to locate a suitable build-
ing to house recreational facilities.”
Such negotiations, Miller said, are
almost completed.
$100,000 In Reserve
Voters within the district, which
embraces West Orange. Bruner

$750,000 bond issue for construc-
tion of the water and sanitary
sewer facilities.
Board members, on advice of
their engineer, C. P. Smith and
Associates, sold only $650,000 in
bonds because they felt that sum
should be sufficient at this time
to install adequate facilities. The
board still has authority to sell the
other $100,000 in bonds if the sum
is needed in the project.
Meanwhile, the county’s other
two water-sewer districts at Vidor
and Bridge City are bogged down.
A case is pending before the
state Supreme Court involving the
Vidor district. A group of property

Three Prospective Governor Candidates
Speak Bat Only One Talks of Politics
By ASSOCIATED PRESS
Three Texans among those most
prominently mentioned as possible
candidates for governor made In-
dependence Day speeches, but only
one talked like an office seeker.
Gov. Allan Shivers spoke at the
triple observance of Independence
Day. the 73th aniversary of Sam
Houston State Teachers College,
and the anniversary of the birth
of Texas’ famed soldier-statesman,
Sam Houston.
Shivers stayed about as far from

The other speaker was former
Chancellor James P. Hart of the
University of Texas. Hart said
flatly, “I have no intention what-
ever of running for any political,
office."
“In order that my position may
be clearly understood,” Hart told
a meeting of University of Texas
ex - student* in Huntsville, “I
would like to add that so far at
political office is concerned I in-
tend to remain an ‘ex.’ ”
The former associate justice of
the State Supreme Court resigned
Jan. 1 to resume private law prac-
tice in Austin. At the time there
was considerable speculation that
he might seek the governorship
and it waa definitely known that
he had been approached by per-
sona urging him to run.

About Saar Issue
PARIS (AP)—French Foreign
Minister Georges Bideult will con-
fer here next Tuesday with Weet
German Chancellor Konrad Ade-
nauer on the Saar question, it was
announced today.
Adenauer proposed the meeting
in an effort to settle the French-
German quarrel over the border
territory, one of the obstacles to
French approval of the rearming
of West Germany within the pro-
posed European army.
A deadlock over the future of
the Saar, the coal-bearing Ger-
man-speaking border state now
linked economically to France, Is
one of the main roadblocks te
French approve! of the European
Defense Community Treaty that
would srsn West German troops
within a six-nation command.
The German* do not wish to re-
nounce their old claims to the ter-
ritory, but say they would "Euro-
peanize" it pending a final peace
treaty. France wants a self-gov-
erning Saar tied up with her
mines, mill* and transport to help
maintain her as almost the indus-
trial equal of West Germany.
Hoping tho French Assembly
would vote soon on the defense
treaty, Adenauer decided to try
for a quick settlement with the
French to help the pro-EDC forces
in Paris.
