Water Resources Committee
To Ask Court To Reconsider
Cutback In Survey Funds
The Douglas County Water Re-j

ed at its monthly meeting Monday
night to draft a letter asking the
county court to reconsider its cut
hack of funds for the Douglas Coun
ty Water Resources Survey olfice.
In its 1957-58 budget, the survey's
appropriation was set at about half
the requested budget. The depart
ment, headed hy Ben B. Irving,
aked for $48,780 and received $27,-
522 50.
Members of the committee indi
cated the job of the department
could not be done adequately with
out more funds. One of the items
receiving most consideration at the
meeting was for matching funds.
These funds would be used in the
event state or federal agencies

Postal Wage
Increase Bill
WASHINGTON W The House
passed a bill Tuesday granting an
across-the-board pay raise of S546
a year for 518.000 postal workers.
There were predictions of a pres
idential veto if the Senate also
passes the measure, estimated to
raise government costs 318 mil
lion dollars annually.
The vole was 379-38. This is far
above the two-thirds majority that
would be necessary to enact the
legislation over a veto.
Voting for the bill were 217
Democrats and 162 Republicans.
Against it were 9 Democrats and
29 Republicans.
A Senate committee has ap
proved a "'-i per cent pay in
creaseabout 5 per cent below
the House figure plus some up
ward cost of living adjustments
for the postal workers.
The average , salary of postal
workers is now about $4,340 a
year.
The talk of a possible veto
stems from President Eisenhow
er's expressed opposition to any
general pay increase for federal
workers at this time on grounds
the government as well as private
citizens should avoid anything that
could add to inflationary pres
sures.

ROSEBURG,
Dulles Beams Plea
For Disarmament
To Iron Curtain
WASHINGTON W The Voice of
America beamed throughout the
world today Secretary of State
Dulles' plea for steps toward dis
armament before the problem of
curbing hydrogen and atomic
weapons becomes "totally unman
ageable." "As matters are going," Dulles
said last night, "the time will
come when the pettiest and most
irresponsible dictator could get
hold of weapons with which to
bring immense harm."
His radio-television address was
both a report to the American peo
ple on this country's efforts at the
London disarmament conference
and an appeal to Russia for new
concessions there to make some
agreement possible.
Full summaries of Dulles' ad
dress were aimed particularly at
Iron Curtain areas from ' Voice
transmitters in Okinawa, Munich
and even the Coast Guard vessel
Courier in the Mediterranean.
The all-out treatment in the over
seas broadcasts pointed up how
much the Eist-nhower administra
tion was relying on Dulles' sober
words to spur the East-West dis
armament talks in London.
He stressed the dangers to man
kind of continued delay in develop
ing a first-step plan for curbing the
grim threat of atomic-hydrogen
warfare.
Blaze At Riddle
Destroys Cabin
Riddle's volunteer fire depart'

The biggest blaze destroyed t

the blaze was not known and no es
timate of the monetary loss was
made. It was not determined if the
cabin was insured, Mrs. Best said.
The cabin was located on the
east flank of Bunker Hill.
Meanwhile, two grass fires in the
afternoon kept the department
hopping. The first was located near
the Johnson Lumber Mill. Shortly
after, another was put out by the
department liehind Vedder's Mar

Mrs. Best said.

Two Women
Found Slain
HOBBS, N. M. Wi A gasoline
truck driver and two young wom

then kidnapped the two Hobbs
women, later killing them.
All three were shot to death with
a .22 caliber weapon.
The bodies of the two women
were discovered by searchers on
a lonely oil lease road about 21
miles west of Hobbs. Officers said
they were fully clothed and there
was no evidence of any sexual mo
lestation. The women victims were identi
fied as Mrs. Barbara Edwards
Lemmons, 23, and Mrs. Dorothy

The bodies of the two women.
both divorcees, were some dis

man Hoover Wimberly said, and
were returning to Hobbs alone
when the right front tire of their
car went flat.
Cantrell evidently stopped to
help the women and the tire jack

said. ;
Police found evidence of a ter
rific struggle. Mrs. Lemmons'
high school class ring was found
on the ground next to the car and
the purses of both women had been
left in the vehicle.
This led state police to believe
the women had been taken away
against their wills.
Cantrell had been shot four
times. Officers said they found
.22-caliber c a r t r i d g es on the
ground at the scene.
The truck engine Hill was run

Jury Convicts
Kasper And Six
Tennessee Folks
KNOXVILLE, Tcnn. W An all
white jury convicted John Kasper
and six Tennessee defendants in
the Clinton segregation trial Tues
day. Completely upsetting defense
predictions of blanket acquittal,
the jury found Kasper and the six
Clinton defendants guilty on all
three counts of criminal contempt.
KNOXVILLE. Tenn. A
U.S. district court jury deliberat
ing the fate of 11 defendants in
the Clinton segregation trial went
to lunch Tuesday, without reach
ing a verdict.
The jury began its deliberations
at 10:21 a.m. (EDT), but by the
time the luncheon recess was
called, it had given no indication
that it had reached any decisions.
A lawyers' wrangle delayed the
start of deliberations more than
20 minutes after U.S. Dist. Judge
Robert L. Taylor finished h i s
charge to the jury.
The defense objected to Tay
lor's characterization of a vital
part of the case as a "well-intentioned
act from the standpoint of
integration."
That episode involved the bloody
beating of the Rev. Paul Turner,
young Baptist minister in Clinton.
He was assaulled last Dec. 4 after
escorting six Negro students past
segregationist advocates on the
streets of the little highland town
near Knoxville.
