UNITED NATIONS GLASS 'HOT BOX'—The 38 story Unit-
ed Nations building in New York with its blue-glass sides
sparkling in the morning sun across East River, looks like a
monstrous, skinny ice cube but is a hot-box inside for the
workers pending installation of air-conditioning. Work-
ers say they are anxiously awaiting the cooling system and
"the coming peace."

Is Major Development;

Site for Roscoe
Park Given
L. S. Howards
City
By
ROSCOE — A city park for
Roscoe, lone sought by civic
groups, the Parent - Teacher As-
sociation, ministers, home dem-
onstration clubs, and cjvic.mind-
ed citizens of the town, became
a reality this week when Mayor
a, and Mrs. L. S. Howard gave the
V city council the land for a
park site.
The site is almost a full block
of land in west Roscoe, lying be-
tween Fourth and Fifth Streets
west of Hickory. The Howards
already owned part of the prop-
erty and bought the remainder
for the park.
The city council in regular ses-
sion this week accented the gift
and voted to Install water and
(lights for the park. It will be
landscaped soon. Representatives
of the interested civic and
church trroups attended the coun-
cil meeting. They have wanted
a park site mainly to provide
youth recreation.
A city park became a prime
objective of the Roscoe P-TA
last spring.
The park will be called How-
ard Park for the donors of the
site.
Lone Star Cement Co.'s gigantic industrial plant at
Maryneal is mnvyif^ fast toward completion *y -Virly fall,
with a night <r«'.w working and an estimated total of 850
construction men on various jobs of contractors and sub-
contractors.
The big plant on the Maryneal
hilltop is adding much to busi-
ness and employment activity of
this region. The payroll, unoffi-
cially estimated at about $10,000
a day, will far exceed that fig-
ure during the summer, some
have said.
Power lines are being con-
structed to the property from
the Eskota switching terminal
of Texas Electric Service Co.
The cement plant will require
powar for 6,000 horse-power, far
more than the entire city of
Sweetwdtei within the city lim-
its.
When completed the plant is
reported to plan for three crews
and an office force to add up to
225 to 250 employes.
4 Big Institution
1 Lone Star Cement Corporation
now building oen of Texas' larg-
est aid most vital industrial
plants at Maryneal, was rated
high in a recent market letter by
Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner
and Beane (June 25). This com-
mentary said that the company
is a leading cement producer and
an attractive "good quality" stock
issue.
"Demand for cement this year
"/I is expected to exceed 1050, and
demand next year should be ex-
cellent. Industrial construction
for tha first five months of 1951
was substantially higher than for
the like period of 1950, and gov-
ernment forecasters look for a
continued high level of activity
through most of 1952.

pected to contitnue to be sub-
stantial for such projects as.
bivouac installations, atom bomb
plants, hangars and aircraft run-
ways. 'the latter market is ex-
pected to be important because
of the necessity of making run-
ways thicker due to the extreme
heat exhaust of jet planes and
the heavier bombers being pro-
duced.
Demand High
"Utility construction is expect-
ed to remain at current high lev-
els, also. Highway construction
will continue to be important be-
cause of the expanding system
and continued need of repairs,
although shortages of steel rein-
forcemc.its may hamper this ac-
tivity. This the 1951-52 demand
outlook for cement appears to be
good.
"Lone Star is adding two
plants to its current annual 29.9
million barrel capacity (10 mil-
lion barrels of which is in Cuba,
Argentina, Uraguay and Bra-
zil). Its tiew 1,500,000 barrel per
year ulant in Roanoke, Va., has
just orr.menced shipping cement
and a new $.8,000,000 plant in
Sweetwater, Texas, should be in
production in October of this
year.
"Pre tax earnings of Lone Star
for the full year 1951 should im-
prove over 1950, although higher
taxes will probably reduce net
income below last year's results.
Profit margins will be squeezed
somewhat by the inability to ful-
ly pass higher material costs
along to consumers because of
price controls. Earnings in the
first quarter of 1951 were $0.59 a
share (adjuster}) vs. $0.66 in the
corresponding period of 1950.
1950 earning were $3.52 a share
(adjusted).

Post Office
Receipts Up
To New High
Postal receipts for the fiscal
year ending June 30 in Sweetwa-
ter reached a new all time high
with a total of $143,026, Postmas-
ter M. J. Sweeden reported Sat-
urday.
This reflected a four and one-
half per cent increase when com-
pared with the 1949-50 fiscal year
receipts of $137,832.
The quarter ending June 30
also showed an increase of 3.05
per cent over the same quarter
last year. Gross receipts were
$34,247.55 compared with $33,231.-
35.
Cancellations of mail at the
Sweetwater post office ran 698,-
605 pieces of mail during the
past quarter. This meant that the
mailing average was somebody
mailing something five times a
minute, on an average, 24 hours
a day for the 92 days in the quar-
ter. There was no count on the
incoming mail.
Good Week For
Cotton Growing
King Cotton—Who "can prom-
ise more and do less, and prom-
ise less and do more than any
other crop"—was smiling over
more than 300,000 acres of crop-
land iri*Nolan, Fisher, Mitchell
and Scurry Counties last week.
Fields that were showing no
cotton a week before, were green
as the young cotton began a fast
growth during the favorable cot-
ton growing week just ended.
Most of the cotton is very
late and the outcome will be a
question mark for some time.
Farmers say that often late cot-
ton matures faster than young
cotto' .
Worm damage has been stop-
ped but not until after an ex-
pensive poisoning fight.
Some growers say that they
have "already spent enough to
raise two crops."
However, this year's crop will
be a valuable one for those who
can get to the gin with cotton.
Calling of More
Guard Divisions
Being Considered
WASHINGTON, July 7 (UP)
—Recommendations for calling
two or three more National
Guard divisions are pending be-
fore Defense Secretary George
C. Marshall and President Tru-
man, it was learned today.
If called, the divisions would
come into service between late
fall and early spring the United
Press was informed.
The Army Department is plan-
ning to give Guard members the
maximum advance warning.
If Marshall and Mr. Truman
decide the divisions shall be call-
ed the department hopes quick-
ly to be able to identify them
so the Guardsmen will have time
to arrange their personal affairs.
Meanwhile, it was learned that
the Army also would like to cre-
ate another three divisions if
funds are available. The Army
is now building toward the equi-
valent of 24 divisions of troops
—18 of them divisions and the
rest in regimental combat teams.
These would include National
Guard divisions called to active
duty.
Six of the nation's 27 Nation-
al Guard divisions have been
called to active duty and two
of them—the 40th Infantry from
California and the 45th Infantry
from Oklahoma—are in the Far
East Command. The other four
are training at various points in

ALLIED FORCES ON ALERT
Precautions Are
Taken For Every
Emergency During
Cease—Fire Talks
TOKYO, Sunday, July 8 (UP)
—Six men meet today under a
white flag of truce in the ancient
city of Kaesong for preliminary
talks that may mean peace in
Korea.
The United States was ready
to unleash a "terrific and instant
northward drive" should the
meeting turn out to be a Com-
munist trick that would endan-
ger the Allied negotiators,
A front dispatch from United
Press Vice President Frank Bar-
tholomew said "the trigger is
cocked" for such a drive "should
6ur negotiators meet with foul
play."
Air War Blazes
The air war blazed into ac-
tion Saturday and 24 American
F-86 Sabrejets clashed with 25
to 30 red-nosed enemy MIG-15
jets over North Korea. Two en-
emy planes were damaged and
the others fled to their Man-
churian bases. No American
planes were lost.
The war appeared to be wan-
ing, but men were still dying
in small isolated engagements.
Informed sources in Washington
expected one or more weeks of
negotiations accompanied by
continued fighting before an ar-
mistice is arranged.
Here there was a pronounced
atmosphere of hushed expectan-
cy among the fighting men—
hope mingled with doubt, anti-
cipation tempered by caution and
the fear of being killed by the
war's last bullet.
Lull Expcctcd
No major battles were expect-
ed, and until some definite de-
cision on the future of the war
is reached, little more than ac-
tive defense is anticipated. That
means keeping in contact with
the enemy through- aggre,'\? '!'
patrolling, harrassing the Rt.'*
With artillery and nulifying Red
buildups with bombs.
There have been fears that the
Communists would take advan-
tage of the battlefield lull to
bring in new troops, weapons
and supplies from Manchuria.
This was alleviated in part by
the orders to bomb the Pyorig-
yang-Kaesong highway after mid-
night.
A spokesman for Ridgway said
a message to this effect was ra-
dioed to the Communists: "To
make it clear that they do not
have free passage on that road
all the time."
With the artery once more sub-
ject to air attack, the Commun-
is delegation inside Kaesong ac-
tually was bottled up in the five-
mile radius neutral zone. Any
traffic on the highway will be
struck as usual.
Warned
The Chinese Nationalists—who
have had more dealings with the
Chinese Communists than any
other—warned against possible
Communist tricks. They noted
that Red propaganda was design-
ed to make it appear it was the
United Nations who sued for
peace.
The Communist propaganda
continued right up to the eve
of the preliminary talks. One
North Korean broadcast claimed
American and "other mercenary
troops" in Korea were surrender-

MARINES HONOR THEIR COMRADES—In a rugged draw somewhere in North Korean
hills, Leathernecks of the First Marine Division gather to honor their comrades in arms
who have fallen in the fight against the Communist. Many UN troops are dying while the
question of peace negotiations are being drawn up to determine whether the Korean conflict
will be ended. (Marine Corps Photo via NEA Telephoto).
Truman Asks
To Raise Iron
Russians
Curtain
WASHINGTON, July 7 (U,P)
President Truman told the presi-
dent of the Soviet Union today
he believes "there will be no
war" if Russia lifts the iron cur-
tain and lets her people know
about American peace aims.
Mr. Truman also said in a mes-
sage to Soviet President Nikolai
Mikhailovieh Shvernik it is
"our sacred duty" to pursue
"every honorable means" to sat-
isfy t'le "common longing for
peace."
He made his bid In transmit-
lng a congressional resolution re-
affirming U. S. friendship with
all people in the world, Includ-
ing those in Russia.
Ths Voice of American said it
will broadcast to Russia the
friendship resolution and Mr.
Truman's message twice each
hour during the next three days.
It will do so in many languages.
Urging that the resolution be
"made known" to the Russian
people, Mr. Truman said that
"peoples who are denied the nor-
mal wans of communications
will not be able tto attain that
mutuul understanding which
must form the basis for trust
and friendship."
Then, bidding Russia to lift the
iron curtain, Mr. Truman said:
"We shall never be able to re-
move suspicion and fear as po-
tential causes of war until com-
munications is permitted to flow,
free and open, across Internation-
al boundaries."
Mr. Truman explained the
congressional resolution and said
It has his "sincere approval."
His message and the resolution
will be delioverd by the U. S.
embassy in Moscow.

Blackwell Boy
Is Drowned In
Merkel Mishap
Funeral services fop Howard
Leyon Fuqua, 14-year-old Black-
well youth who drowned in a
stock water tank five miles south
of Merkel late Friday were held
at 2:30 p. m. Saturday at the Mer-
kel Chruch of Christ with the
minister, Paul Rogers, officiat-
ing.
Young Fuqua was the son of
Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Fuqua, who
moved to Blackwell a few
months ago. The father is em-
ployed at the Lone Star Cement
Plant, Maryneal.
The youth was visiting his
grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. J.
P. Fuqua of View, and had gone
with a friend, Leonard Norris
Boden, to swim in the Boden
stock tank after working in the
field with his uncle, Garvin Fu-
qua, during the afternoon. The
boys had swum out to an old
raft when young Fuqua became
cold and started back to land
shortly before 7 p. m. He sank
and Leonard Boden, unable to
rescue him, ran for help.
The body was recovered some
20 minutes later from five and
a half feet of water by Jack
Hogan and Jim Isom of Mount
Pleasant. The victim failed to
respond to resuscitation efforts.
Young Fuqua, who lacked 15
days of being 15 years old, was
lx>rn In the View Community
and had lived at View, Mount
Pleasant, and Shep before mov-
ing to Blackwell. Surviving are
his parents, grandparents, Mr.
and Mrs. A. M. Steward of Tus-
cola, and Mr. and Mrs. J. P.
Fuqua of View;, three brothers,
McArthur Odell, Garvin Eugene,
and Louis Earl, and a sister, Jun-
it May, all of Blackwell.
Interment was In the Rose Hill
Cemetery at Merkel beside the
grave of another Fuqua child.
Starbuck Funeral Home of Mer
kal had charge. _
all future rollbacks on any item
Committee Chairman Harold
D. Cooley, D., N. C., said the com-
mutes, as such, decided to take
no position on rollbacks of non-
farm prices after he conferred
yesterday with Price Stabilizer
Michael V. DiSalle. DiSalle is op-
posed to the non-rollback ban.
But Cooley said the chief rea-
son for the action was that the
committee decided it was "out-
side our jurisdiction" to take a
position on price ceilings affect-
ing non-farm products.
DiSalle toid a reporter that he
explained why he thought "roll-
backs on farm and non-farm
goods are important" and that
he is not backing down.
The agriculture committee's
amendmeent, as revised, would
kill the government's first roll-
back on cattle prices and ban
future rollback on beef or any
other farm prices.
DiSalle has said he would have
to boost ceilings on beef about
10 percent if the first rollback
were killed.
The House wound up debate
on the watered-down controls
bill yesterday and will start vot-
ing on Monday. The bill, which
falls far short of administration
goals, would continue controls
through June 30, 1952.
Although the committee was
firm in its insistence for a ban
on farm price rollbacks, includ-
ing the first beef rollback now
in effect.
Cooley claimed the .price-set-
ting formula would provide a
fairer leveling of prices, giving
a break to manufacturers who
have trieo voluntarily to keep
prices down.
Circling The Square
Lights on the Veterans Monu-
ment on the southside of the
courthouse would be a worth-
while project for some civic or-
ganization. Not only would it
light up the monument but
would provide lights for band
concerts, etc.
A "Fireside Men's Quartet"
has been organized to work in
cooperation with the city band
concerts. Dr. Ai Densmore and
Endel Soosalu are two members
of the group which is to treat
the public to some real Texas
Barbershop Harmony.

Preliminary
Conferences
Come First
TOKYO, Sunday, July 8—Pre-
liminary conferences between
the United Nations and the Com-
munists began here today to ar-
range for a later meeting of high-
er officials to work out a truce
in Korea.
Three United Nations officers
flew today to the South Koriean
walled city of Kaesong for pre-
liminary ceasefire conferences
with a waiting Communist del-
egation.
The three officers accompan-
ied by two interpreters flew to
Kaesong, 34 miles northwest of
Seoul, in two big green helicop-
ters that windmilled through the
early morning mist.
The three Allied officers were
Col. Andrew1 J. Kinney of the
U. S. Air Force, Atlanta, Ga.,
Col. James C. Murray of the U.
S. Marine Corps and Lt. Soo
Young Lie of the South Korean
Army.
Their identities were kept se-
cret until takeoff time.
Bv LYLE C. WILSON
WASHINGTON, July 7 (UP)
—One or more weeks of cease-
fire negotiations accompanied by
continued fighting before an
armistice is arranged is what
the country can expect now in
Korea.
Informed sources here said to-
day that was the predicted pat-
tern. One estimate was that
three weeks might be required
to make the agreement which
will silence the guns.
Meantime the all-out United
Nations air attack on Comnfun-
ist Chinese and North Koreans
is to continue, it was said nere.
The United Nations command-
ers will not invite serious group
engagements but they may talte
place.
Shooting Goes On
The word in Washington is
that the guns will not stop shoot-
ing until there is agreement on
Armistice terms.
The necessity for continuing
the war during armistice talks Is
held here to be urgent. Author-
ities insist that they believe the
Communist cease-fire bid is gen-
uine. But if it were merely a
trick to gain a breathing spell
the only way such a trick could
work would be by permitting
pressure on the Communist forc-
es to fall slack while the nego-
tiators talked.
Negotiations could be strung
out for two or three weeks dur-
ing which the North Koreans
and Chinese Communists could
recuperate from recent shellack-
ings and reground their forces.
Just a Preliminary
The negotiations which began
today in Korea are among col-
onels representing the high com-
manders on both sides. These
talks merely will seek agree-
ment on the times and places
and similar physical matters re-
lating to subsequent negotia-
tions among the top brass.
How long the talks must con-
tinue will depend largely on
how much actual authority the
Communist commanders may
have, assuming they are on the
level in their desire to end the
war.
Cotton over the area had sev-
eral days of "good hot weather"
during the past week and is
showing signs of coming along
nicely . . . insects are letting np

should show rapid strides during

World Watching
Iran Situation
WASHINGTON — The Anglo-
Iranian oil crisis has revived talk
of gasoline rationing in the Unl-
t©d St8t6S.
Those close to the situation
said today that the issue will
hinge upon future breaks In the
Iran troubles.
Being a conservative newspa-
per the Reporter stated last
week that the payroll of the
construction company at Lone
Star Cement was 8 to 10 thou-
sand dollars per day. We were
informed unofficially Saturday
the payroll would run nearly
diouble that amount daily.
On a recent trip to Chicago
Tom Porter was tied up in Kan-
sas by the floods In that country
for 80 hours. Rumors have it
that 12 carloads of fire brick for
Lone Star Cement Company
have been tied up in the area for
some time.
LONDON, July 7 (UP)—For-
eign Secretary Herbert Morrison
warned the Iranian government
tonight that its action in the oil
dispute with Britain was driving
Iran into the Communist orbit.
Addressing an East Anglian
Labor Party meeting at Ipswich,
he said Iran's handling of the
controversy could result only in
"misery and squalor" for the peo-
ple.
"Can you think of a system
better calculated for exploita-
tion?" he asked. "And if it hap-
pens, not only Persia but the
whole world may suffer from its
effects."
Morrison at the same time
charged that Russia was bleed-
ing it. satellites to serve her
own "narrow interests."
Paul Brown is building a num-
ber of "dog houses" for the oil-
fields . . . most people didn't
know oil field workers had time
for hunting.
TEHRAN, Iran, July 7 (UP)
—Iran rejected today the World
Court's proposal for a mixed
commission to run the disputed
Iranian oil industry, but left the
door open for further negotlaton.
