ADMITS HIS CRIMES
Walter Glen Rnnsom smilingly ad-
mitted to officers and reporters today
the robbery of a Waco grocery store
ami a series of automobile, thefts in
his four-day crime orgy in Northeast
Texas.
But the 23-yeur-old former resident
of Edinburg, Tex., captured yester-
day in Fannin county as the climax
of a huge manhunt, denied that he
kidnaped two Bogota, Tex., brothers
from whom he took one of the five
cars stolen during his hare and
hounds gunie with officers.
He was brought here from Bonham
where he surrendered yesterday, to
answer charges of stealing a taxicab
and an automobile in a wild flight
through northeast Texas. He ad-

with plenty of hot water "there's noth-

those do-everything automatic washers
or do the iob by hand, the gas auto-

to the modern household's need for
hot water.
Remember, dish washing is just one
of the many modern hot water needs.
Add to it the dozens of house-cleaning
tasks, baths, showers, shaves, laundry
and cooking needs. Considering all
these needs, it's easy to see why the
reliable, economical gas automatic
water heater is the only answer. In
modernizing your hot water service,
make sure your new heater is sized
to your family needs and has a rust-

town Greenville grated Ida chin.
Two other charges were filed dur-
ing the day in towns in which he
was alleged to have committed rob-
beries. At Waco the 23-year-old
prisoner was charged with robbing
the Clark Grocery Company and sev
eral employes ami customers of fl,o00
lust week.
Red River county officials filed at
Clarksville a holding charge alleg-
ing theft over $50. A charge alleg-
ing armed robbery was being pre-
pared and a charge of kidnapping
also might be filed.
The kidnuping ehurge was being
considered in connection with the
abduction of two brothers at Bogota.
The brothers, filling station opera-
tors, were forced by a youth to drive
hint to Paris where he released them
and continued his flight in their car.
Sheriff Dick Wait of Bonham said
Ransom denied the Bogata crime.
He wants to question the youth
about two burglaries in Mount Pleas-
ant, two burglaries at Talco and the
theft of two automobiles from u con-
voy west of Mount Pleasant. Drivers
of the convoy were robbed of $90.
Sheriff Fayt Clifton filed the auto
theft charges. They alleged that the
youth stole a Yellow Cab in his
flight through Greenville. It was
abandoned at nearby Commerce where
another automobile was stolen from
Homer Clifton. The fugitive dropped
two guns when he was almost corn-
ered.
Victims of the Waco holdup iden-
tified a picture of Ransom as the
man who committed the robbery.
The Minnesota parole board re-
ported that Ransom was paroled to
his father at the iatter’s request last
December 5 to work on the family
farm at Arkadelpha, Ark. He was
serving five to 40 years for first de-
gree robbery.
Sam Clark of Yarrellton
One of Men Responsible
New Road Construction
Through an oversight the name of
Sam Clark of Yarrellton, was omit-
ed from the news story published in
the daily and weekly Herald following
the commencement of construction on
the new road from Splawn to Yar-
rellton.
Mr. Clark and Jim Mann of the j
same community, contacted the land
owners along the route of the new
road and were successful in getting
the lands donated and where the o\yn-
ners pay they were also instrumental
in getting citizens to contribute mon-
ey.
As one of the men directly respon-
sible for the new road Mr. Clark de-
serves much praise. The news story
was written by The Herald and the
error of omission is the newspaper
and not anyone else.
Work has been started on the new
road.

The house-senuto budget committee | j»,.jor to the committee session,
voted 50 to 22 today to slash $(>,000,- General Dwight Eisenhower, chief of

At the regular meeting of the Com-

beginning July 1.
It thus orverrode army and navy
protests that cuts in their funds
would endanger national security and
in the words of Chairman Knutson

a 20 per cent cut in individual income 1 vacanl former service

The reduced figure of $31,500,000,-
000 is not necessarily tht. amount that
will be made available for the next
fisenl year. It amounts to a suggested
ceiling, but congress is not bound to
stay within it. It contemplates re-
moval of at least 500,000 civilian
workers out of the 2,300,000 on gov-
ernment payrolls.
The committee rejected all efforts,
including a plea by Senator Taft
(R-Ohio), to hold the budget reduc-
tion at a figure which would take
fewer dollars from the $11,200,(8)0,000
thut President Truman requested for
the army and navy.
Chairman Gurney (R-SD) of the
senate armed services committee
fought the huge slash doggedly in
