High Ami They Have
"firown-man" Attitude.
Lt. Col. Ben Delumeter III was

fifteen months in Korea as a com-
mander under General Matthew B.
Ridgway, supreme UN comaml>-r.
He stated that it is his hon«Mt
belief that the United Nations
acted wisely in defending Sourh
Korea when the Reds attacked.
He gave a history of the ent're
Korean War, pointing out the sev-
eral times the UN Forces have
moved forward and again with-
drawn and, illustrated by mi.;),
«howed where the forces are now
holding, slightly above the USth
Parallel, imaginary boundary lin<;
between North and South Korea.
Lt. Col Delameter, III, stated
that the moral of the United
States forces in Korea is much
Higher than the morale of the
saine forces in World War II.
"They take the grown man atti-
tude," the Colonel said. "They may
gripe but it is not a cry-baby grip?
and they know they have only on-
job to do and that is to kill
Chinese."
Col. D-'lamotcr stated emphati-
cally that he believes something
must happen in Korea soon. "The
struggle is coming to a head and
we'll have to throw our real
strength in there and run out the
Chinese sooner or later," he point-
ed out.

Wherever you live in Hex as, the oil industry
is your neighbor. For the Texas oil industry is the bread-and-butter, the
opportunity, the daily work oí some 190,000 Texas men and women.
The girk who sits next to you in the bus; the hearty-looking man
who waves as you pass on the highway; the family behind you at
the PTA: in Texas, they all could be, some certainly are oil workers.
Bookkeepers, stenographers, executives, drillers, roughnecks, stillmen,
geologists, salesmen, pipe liners, petroleum engineers—the oil industry
supplies the livelihood of all, and many more.
Neighbors of yours these people are, folks who pay taxes like
your , spend their money in the stores you patroni/.c, drive the same
kind of automobile, send their children to the same schools.
.... The oil industry is more than a balance sheet, a set
of statistics, an investment in derricks and pipe-stills. In Texas,
it's the family next door.
