Gtwimany.
Many had tearful reunions.

wege Others entered West Berlin
They reportedly aire the van-
guard of several thousand set free
under an amnesty announced last
month.
The released men were clad in
quilted Russian-type Jackets.
Release of the prisoners ut this
time was viewed by Western ob-
servers as part of Russia's po-
litical offensive designed to de-
feat Western policy In Germany.
The Westerners drew a parallel
with the cases of the many miss-

farm. The fam'ily has lived in
Baylor County for many years,
and Garrett sayv, In changing their
Banner back to Seymour, that they
are likely to be here now for the
rest of their lives. He says the
only thing the town did while he
was gone that he doesn't like has
boon to do away with those old
steps at the Farmers National
bank, where a fellow could ham#
out whenever time came for his
retirement.
One reauon for coming back
home was on account of this being
a focal place when the children
get ready to con* home on a visit.
Mr, Seals said he and wife have
eight sons-in-law, scattered all
around this part of the state, and
one of them here, Bob Keck of
Mabelle. One son, Foster, and his
wife, the former France*.* Harvey,
have been In Alaska for two years,
but ere soon to be back in Texas.
The younigest child, Lafoy, Is still
with his parents, and will attend
Seymour High School for his sen-
ior year.
It i5 a mighty fine thing to have
this family back home again—for

Eye to Depression
NEW YORK (AtP),—Secretary of
Commerce Weeks declared the ad-
nflnlst rati on would not hesitate to
use "the vast power of the Federal
Government to prevent an old-
fashiomed depression."
But, Weeks said, "ithe economic
climate Is good," and ho is a
"realistic optimist" on the business
outlook.
In remarks prepared for delivery
to the fall meeting of the National
Industrial Goiiufereiwe Hoard,
Weeks gave this preview of the
repont on the third quarter busi-
ness situation soon to be made by
the Commerce Department:
Personal income lias continued
to rise ttind personal spending Is ex-
pected to mount, meaning a still
growing consumer market. Civilian
employment has not changed irfuch
In recent months.
Business activity generally con-
tinues at a high rate and corporate
profits are bigger than a year ago,
Inventories are rising but the de-
partment expects a smaller accu-
mulation in ithe third quarter than
in the second quarter ol' the year.
And durable goods purchases are
at a high level.

believed to be Improving last
week. However, he took a critical
turn Saturday night and sank rap-
idly Sunday.
The newsman had been active in
the Times office, writing his daily
column and his editorials until
late August. His last regular
column appeared in the August
27:h issue ol' the Times, the day
he entered a Wichita Falls hospi-
tal for a physical examination.
Last Tuesday he wrote from his
hospital bed a special column,
describing in the rich hunftir so
typical of him, his experiences in
surgery and ('banking his friends
for remembering him.

Homer Conley of Wichita Falls;
four r.ons. John Gould Jr. Level-
land, Texas; Thomas It Gould,

history. His information on North
Texas and Southern Oklahoma,
which he had been collecting since
first going to work for The Times
in 190H, was considered by experts
and laymen alike as the most corr*-
plete and most accurate data on
the general area
Alrcondltloned Farming
If a farmer earns his bread by
"the sweat of his brow" In the
coming seasons, it won't be the
fault of Inventor Ralph J. Schaef-
fe:\ of Ferdinand, Idaho.
Mr Sehaefter lias patented an
air-conditioned, dust-proof suit—
fitted for a radio receiver and even
a cigarette holder! It's n*ide of
aintight rubber or rubberized
material, and is to be supplied with
filtered air from a pump mounted
on "any suitable farm implement."
The invention is not only in-
tended to keep the farmer cool in
hot weather. By using hot air in- |
sUxad of cold air. he can sit snug
and cozy atop his "suitable imple-
ment'' when the thermometer
