Curiosity Also Kills People
(An Editorial)
A lot of people in Orange forgot for a time last Friday night a
' recent lesson of very bitter memory and; but for the grace of God
this.temporary lapse of memory might have resulted in death or
injury to many of these persons. The thing they forget is that the
casualty list of the recent Texas City disaster included a substant-
ial percentage of persons who were in the area of the explosions
purely as sightseers and had no business there.
FYiday night's disaster in Orange cheated a situation fraught
with the possibility of a hplocaust at least as big as that at Texas
City and any who stopped to think about the thing certainly would
not have subjected themselves to the danger of becoming a name
on a casualty' list by rushing into the area as several thousand
people did. There was another pressure unit and several tanks "of
chemicals at the creosote plant which might have blown up. There
could have been gasoline barges in the river nearby set off by the
first explosion. Other chemical storage units in the vicinity might
have gone off. \ '
Fortunately none of these things happened. Had they done So,
Orange today would 4>e busier burying its dead and caring for its
injured than at anything else.
Besides endangering their own lives, the people who jammed
the sTrtete aftcr the explosion hampered work of firemen and
others trying to clear up the situation.
It is said that curdsityJellied a cat. It also has killed a lot of
people aftd one day may take the lives of a lot of us here In Orange

EL PASO, Tex.. Oct. 13. (AP)
A flaming object which soared
over the Texas-Mexico border and
crashed near th Zamalaycua
mountains of Mexico^with a loud
explosion and billowing smoke
remained a mystery today.
The point of impact was said to
be less than 10 miles from where
ah pff-track V-2 rocket crashed
south of.Juarez May/30.
Public relations officers at the
White mods, N>^.M., proving
grounds said no V-2 rockets have
peen fired since Oct. 0.
Military officials >^t air fields
and other installations in the
southwest said that no guided
missiles had been (ted yesterday
and that no rocket planes were
missing from fields in the area.
S**11 ,n Fabens Area
Two persons claimed to^have
seen the fiery object and other
in the FabenS, Te^a^T area,, 28
miles away, hearjJ>the explosion.
The explosion occurnwl at ap—
proximately.>tf:80 a„ m. Mexican
jlme (8JMf MST) yesterday.
Billows of - unaccounted for
srpoke were reported seen by
tWo persons in the El Paso-Fab-
eni "highway about the time the
explosion was .heard.
Sabas Aranda, a reserve cap-
tain7 in the Mexican army, re-
ported the incident first. He
said he saw the object traveling
from east to west, which would
incidate that it came from , the
direction of the United States.
Appearance Described
Aranda said he was near his
home at Cascta, Mexico, when he
saw the object.
"Attracted by a brilliant light,"
Aranda said, "I looked up and
saw an object trailing blue flame
traveling at great speed east' to
west. It made rio noW while
traveling but two blasts were
heard shortly alter it disappeared
o.er the sandhills, near Colonia
Reforma." Colonia Reforma is a
small town near the border.

Decision Last June
In Udelands Case
WASHINGTON. Oct. 13—(/P)—
The supreme court refused today
to reconsider its decision that the
federal government has paramount
rights to oil In underwater lands
off the California coast, ;
« The state of California asked the
court for a rehearing of the case,
contending Ihe decision would de-
prive every coastal state of enor-
mous areas and valuable property
rights.1'
The federal, government's claim
covered lands between low-wuta#
mark and the three-mile limit, out
did not embrace bays, ports, har-
bors and lands between high and

California has issued leases
which permit various companies to
withdraw oil from the submerged
lands.
