UP) Of ficers are trying to find out why three children became ill and died while on a family picnic in the Palo Duro canyon, southeast of here. Robert Henry Patton, 34, father of two of the victims, said the illness struck Saturday night after most of the picnic group ate scram bled eggs and calf brains. Patton said he tried to rush the children to a doctor but his car bogged down in a sandy stream bed. He told officers he sat helpless ill himself while the three died. Help did not come until Sunday. Undertaker Horace Griggs and a doctor who examined the bodies said they were cherry-red in color, possibly an indication of carbon monoxide poisoning.

Dagwell urge renewed vigor in religious work to help the "nominal churchman" face present-day emergencies. The nominal churchman, he said, "knows the rules of canasta better than the rubrics of the prayer book, and has a better record of attendance at lodge than at church "His attitude sets the pattern of the U. S. A , which is a so-called Christian nation, but has more con fidence in bombs than in prayers, and judges its spiritual leaders by Legionnaire slogans rather than Christ's teachings. "A moral and spiritual awaken ing is needed. The best bomb shel ter I know is the whole armor of God, the shield of faith. . ."he said. J Call For Blood Donors Brings 14,741 Pledges NEW YORK JP) The Colum bis Broadcasting system says the Red Cross expects a half million blood donors to respond to an ap peal broadcast Friday night over 173 radio stations.

State Deficit Is Snag However, very few voters realize that under the present computa tion the schools are reviving around $130 a month per student instead of $80, as specified be cause they are now receiving the eighty dollars for many children included in the school census who are not actually in school. The motive of the bills is to try and get the state out of a serious financial problem. Many people who voted for the Children's bill did so in the sincere belief that it would not "cost them one red cent.' 'that the money was lying dormant and needed to be used. This is far from the truth, for the state is going to be operating at a deficit shortly unless new txes can be proposed. The small margin by which the Children's bill passed has given the sponsors of the Carter bill the opinion that another vote on this new angle might reverse the re sult, as people now are beginning to realize that they have inevit ably voted upon themselves new tax burdens. The school people naturally op pose the bill for it would mean that they had another fight on their hands to gain public support for their struggle in educating the children of the state. It seems to me that no one can begrudge needed and well-used support for the schools of the state but 1 hope that never aain will our voters be defiided into thinking they can vote to spend an addi tional eleven million dollars an nually without having it cost any one anything .It just can't be done. The problem simmers down to a question of whether the school sup port should be levied at the state level or the county level. But eventually it comes out of the same pockets. Influenza Virus Hits N.Y. County Populace ALBANY, N. Y. UP) -The state health commissioner says in fluenza virus caused the outbreak of a respiratory disease in Niagara county. Dr. Herman E.

KOd Whales Windfall For Japanese Fishers WAKKANAI, Japan UP) -Sixteen careless whales were cruising along today, not paying much at tention to the hazards of sea travel.

Dewey Favors Big U.S. Land Force In Europe (Continued from page One) Truman Asks Congress To O.K. Grain For India WASHINGTON (P) Presi dent Truman asked Congress to day to authorize sending 2,000,000 tons of grain to India, and to ap propriate funds now for the first 1,000,000 tons. In a message to the legislators, the President suggested they defer appropriation of money for the balance "until the situation has been further clarified." That left the implication that possibly the second 1,000,000 tons might not be needed or sent, al though Mr. Truman asked for au thorization for the full 2.000.000 tons which India has asked be cause of a threatened famine.

He declared that congressional power to declare war was wholly separate from the question of troop movements. Not Candidate During the interview, Dewey also said: Less than 49 percent of the peo ple now support the President. "I am not a candidate (for the presidency) nor will be one." National unity requires an end to advocacy of "socialize! medi cine" and the "stupid. Brannan (farm) plan." ' The wage and price division is "a recruiting agency for broken down Democrat politicians." Dewey is scheduled to make a major foreign policy speech here tonight at a Loncolt; day dinner sponsored by the National Republi can club.
