I am wondering if there are
still living around Sulphur

Sulphur Springs. He tanned
cow hides into leather. In the
process of tanning they used
bark of red oak trees; bought
the bark by the cord from peo-

The association’s 70th an-
nual report of exploratory
drilling said all the other tests
— 97 per cent — resulted in
dry holes or the discovery of
reserves too small to be prof-
itable.
The chairman of the com-
mittee on statistics of explora-

Henry Wallace
Offers Advice
On Controls
Ithaca, N. Y., Mar. 22 OT —-
Former Vice-President Henry
Wallace has advised the Ken-
nedy administration to try to j
avoid tampering with produc- j
tion and prices of farmers’ per-
ishable products. Wallace also
is a former secretary of agri-
culture. He makes his remark
in a speech prepared for an
agricultural progress program
at Cornell University in Itha-
ca.
Wallace urges Agriculture
Secretary Freeman to avoid as
much as possible getting in-
volved with perishable pro-
ducts. Wallace says:
“In many of the perishables,
temporary low prices will damp
down production quite rapidly.
This is not true of wheat, corn
and cotton. Control of market-
ing is always a headache, be-
cause there is always the ques-
tion of the fairness of the
bases. If the prices are set too
high, the political and public
pressures may become riresist-
ible.”'
Wallace doesn’t refer spcci-.
fically to milk, although it is
assumed he includes it. Presi-
dent Kennedy is proposing to
regulate* milk production.
The first recorded solar
eclipse is believed to have oc-
curred around 200 B. C.
Sixty per cent of all office
buildings in the United States
have central or individual room
air conditioning.

Second Chance
Proves Cosily
McAllen, Mar. 22 UP* _ A
73-year-old McAllen man learn*-
ed late last night that if at
first you don’t succeed, don’t
try again.
Arthur Laughlin stepped out
of his car near the McAllen
depot shortly before midnight.
By accident, the gear was left
in reverse with the engine run-
ning.
Laughlin tried to get in the
car, and it backed over him.
He got up, tried again, and
once more the vehicle ran over
him — tips time breaking an
ankle.

NUCLEAR TEST RECORD — Since the Unit ed States fired off the world’s first atomic
device in July, 1945, at Alamagordo, N. M„ at least 304 more have been exploded through-
out the world. The United States has fired 172 announced test shots, Russia 105, Britain
22 and France 5. The United States is ready to resume nuclear testing' in April on
British-owned Christmas Island as a result of Russia’s breaking a three-year test mora-
torium. The largest announced nuclear test by the United States was a 15-megaton
device fired as part of a series at Eniwetok in 1954. Russia recently detonated a 584-meg-
aton bomb at her test site on the Arctic island of Novaya Zemlya, Siberia. A megaton is
equal to a million tong of TNT. Other Russian tests have been conducted near the cities
of .Volgqgard and Semipalatinsk. Britain has tested in the southwest United States
