NEPHJ, UTAH Thursday, May 25, 1950 -- "SHOOTING IN THE GULF." l l liPicturfaarl In the constant search tor more oil for Americans, who are using 40 per cent more than ever before, engineers have pushed out into the Gulf of Mexico. Working from boats, the crews explode small dynamite charges beneath the surface picking up resulting shock waves on seismometers. Interpretation of seismograph records shows the geological formations under the sea bottom, indicating whether or not conditions are favorable to the accumulation of oil. The crew (left) is marking position for a The Winner! POLITICS: A New Trend? Political observers were face to face with the question: is there a new political trend in the wind? In Florida George Smathers defeated Sen. Claude e new dealer, by Pepper, well over 65,000 in the democratic primary. Critics of the Fair Deal, especially the revolting Fouthern-ers- , called it a victory over alarming "creeping socialism," big government, unbalanced budgets and the welfare state. The winner, however, told Republicans to take no comfort from his victory. He said: "The people of Florida In this election proved they were unwilling to depart from the and basic principles of the Democratic party.. They do not wish to venture off down the side roads of extremism or dangerous experimentation. "Nor are they interested in turning the clock back to isolationism attitude of the and the Republican party." Meanwhile, the people of Texas elected the first Republican congressman in 24 years when Ben H. Guill, Pampa broker and former schoolteacher, defeated 10 Democrats. It was a sudden-deat- h election to fill the unexpired term of Gene Worley who had resigned to become a federal judge. Guill said he was going to Washington as one small protest and If I go up there added: " as one small protest, maybe the powers that be won't think they have the whole country In the bag.

The treasury department has one objective to promote the sale of savings bonds in order to encourage thrift. An attempt will be made to contact every potential buyer of savings bonds in the nation. At the conclusion of the drive, Snyder said a bell will go to each state and territory for permanent exhibit. INDOCHINA: To Get Aid Secretary of State Acheson announced In Paris that Indochina would get immediate American aid in the form of military equipment in an effort to rid the country of the guerrilla war which has been going on for four years. He announced the bulk of already appropriated to combat communism in the Far East will go to the French backed Vietnamese of Bao Dai and the associated states of Cambodia and Laos to fight Moscow backed Ho Chi Minn. Many observers felt the move was an Important one in the battle against communism In that section of the world. Some believed the Communists may have made too many gains and the aid will be "too little and too late." Acheson indicated the United States would expect a greater de for the grec of three Indochina states under the French. He added, "The United States considers the situation to be such as to warrant its according economic aid and military equipment to the associated states of Indochina and to France In order to assist peaceful and democratic de velopment." KING: George Smathers, 36, casts his vote in bis race against Senator Claude Pepper for the U.S. senate. Smathers defeated Pepper by well over 65,000 votes. Pepper had been a member of the upper house for 14 years. His defeat is considered a blow against President Tru- man. SPY HUNT: Files Available The Communist spy hunt, called by many a witch hunt and a mud slinging campaign against administration big shots, took a new turn when President Truman agreed to give investigators the complete state department loyalty files on the 81 cases cited by Senator McCarthy. Although Truman's approval did not cover F.B.I, files, a great amount of F.B.I, material is included in the reports. It now comes to light that the 81 persons named by McCarthy have been investigated by four other congressional committees. Senator Tydings, chairman of the subcommittee which has been look ing into McCarthy's allegations, said: "No adverse report concern ing these employees came to the floor of the house or the floor of the senate and none was sent to the state department after the other in vestigations. Some sources are saying public opinion is beginning to blow the lid off the scandals of the Truman administration. But others believe too much time and money are being wasted in an effort to create Com munist hysteria for political rea ..... sons. The public, meanwhile, was be coming a little bored and skeptical of explanations from either side. Some logical explanation of what has been going on had better be made and soon, the voter was say ing. . TRUMAN: On Tour Strike Settled On Dressy Occasions The strike, Chrysler the second longest and costliest in the history of the automobile industry, has been settled. The union claimed it won the "10 cents an hour package" in pensions and hospital and medical benefits for which the strike was called. To put the strike above the mer cenary level, UAW president Walter P. Reuther said, "The Chrysler strike was a part of a great human crusade to build a better tomorrow and a better world." But labor observers said the strike was too long and too costly for anyone to benefit. About 89.000 Chrysler workers in 25 plants and 50.000 in supplier plants had been idle. Also on the labor front, John L. Lewis announced that the UMW wel fare fund would resume payment of benefits next month. Benefits were suspended for almost a year during the UMW's drawn out strikes and restricted work weeks. Another important move in the labor world was the announcement of William Green of the AFL that his union is willing to meet with the CIO to form a united organization "of all forces and groupings of or ganized labor."

That in itself was enough to make many a politician raise his eye brows. The President shoved his needle of ridicule deep when he touched on isolationism. He said: "Now isolationism would be a cheap policy to follow. It would be easy and cheap to stop spending money on our army and navy and air force and to stop sending sup plies to other countries who sur vived the great war. we can stop these things today. "Isolationism would be mighty cheap for today and tomorrow and maybe next week. You remember how cheap isolationism was in the 1920's. Taxes were cut, at least for the big fellows, but look at the terrible price we have paid for Isolationism in the second world war Today exactly the same Issue faces us. There are still some men who keep telling you that we can economize by following an isolationist policy. These men can't see beyond the end of their noses. "They don't see that isolationism would let the rest of the world be swallowed up by communism. That would certainly bring on a new world war just as it did In 1939. We reneged in 1921, just as Russia today is doing with the help of our own Isolationists." 1946, second $3,608,208. highest in history, was If betting is any indication of the economic trend, the prospect for the rest of 1950 would seem excellent.
