, Polio Outbreak
More Serious
At San Angelo
Twelve New Cases
Are Diagnosed;
Eight Deaths Occur
SAN ANGELO, Tex., June 15—
(U.P.)—The nation's first serious polio
epidemic this year broke out with
renewed intensity today.
Shannon Memorial hospital han-
dled 65 cases, the most it has treat-
ed since the epidemic began several
days ago in tills west Texas area.
Twelve new cases were diagnosed
Stills week, bringing the total for
the year to 158. Eight deaths have
been attributed to the oubreak.
The latest victim was Tommy
Yarbrough. 5, who died of the
bulbar type polio that paralyzes
the chest. As Tommy gasiied for
breath, surgeons performed a wind-
pipe operation Sunday. The effort
was of no avail.
All but three of the patients at
t Shannon hospital were children.
Hospital authorities said they
were forced to limit visits to three
days a week because worried par-
ents were impairing the children's
chances of recovery with too fre-
quent visits.
People Remaining Calm
Parents of children in critical
' condition were permitted to stay
in their rooms indefinitely, how-
ever.
I f Outwardly, the people of San
Angelo were acting normally. They
continued to patronize theaters and
swimming pools, although city
health authorities cautioned every
one to stay away from places where
crowds gather.
Crews were spraying DDT
throughout the city.
An epidemic team of specialists
from Stanford university at Palo
; ^Alto, Calif., established headquar-
ters at Shannon hospital to assist
the resident staff in its battle.
Dr. Robert Neville of New York,
associate director of medical care
of the National Foundation for In-
fantile Paralysis, was studying the
epidemic.
Hospitals Praised
In a radio address last night, he
complimented San Angelo's hos-
. pitals and its medical profession
» for the work being done.
Neville said he was "very pleased'’
with the progress that was being
made and expressed confidence the
epidemic would abate.
He declined, however, to estimate
how long it would take to stamp
out the disease.
At North Camp Hood, in the San
Angelo-San Antonio polio belt, Pri-
vate Roy B. Page of Seguin, Tex..
was diagnosed as a victim. Page,
* in summer u —ilng with the 36th
division of the national guard, was
believed to have contracted the
disease before entering the camp.
No other suspected cases were
reported among the 5.000 soldiers at
North Camp Hood.
‘BEST SCHOOL BILL’—“I am happy to sign the best school bill ever written for Oklahoma,"
said Governor Roy J. Turner. By their smiles the leaders who authored and successfully supported the
bill in the 22nd legislature indicate that they are happy, too. Left to right: Senator J. C. Nance. Purcell,

Lucas Deplores
Depression Talk
Republican ‘Cry’
Sharply Criticized
WASHINGTON. June 15—(>P)—
Senator Scott Lucas of Illinois, the
Democratic leader, said today peo-
ple had better quit gabbing about
a depression or the country may
talk Itself into one.
“I might go back to 1933 and
repeat the words of Franklin D.
Roosevelt to say that 'the only
thing we have to fear is fear it-
self',” Lucas told a reporter.
Hie senator's comment came in
response to an announcement by
Senator Owen Brewster (Repub-
lican, Maine) that Republicans

lic works and relief planning pro-
cram "to meet the growing Demo-

Council Faces
Heavy Agenda
Lew Wentz's
Will Is Filed
Niece and Her Sons
Main Beneficiaries
PONCA CITY. June 15—(A>>—
Mrs. Dorothy Wentz Healey, niece
of the late Lew H. Wentz, and her
two sons are principal beneficiaries
in the oil man-political leader's
will filed for probate tn court at
Newkirk today.
Wentz left Mrs. Healey her home
and its furnishings and a $150,000
annuity payable at the rate of $500
monthly.
The will set up annuities of
$300,000 each for her two teen-
aged sons, Burke and Baren, each
annuity to pay $500 a month until
exhausted.
In addition, the will provided ex-
penditures of $150,000 apiece to buy-
each of the boys an improved
ranch and left the trio 20 percent
of the estate's residue.
No estimate of the value of the
estate is contained in the will,
but an appraisal is to be made
later in the probate proceedings.
It Is believed it may total $5,000,000.
The will includes specific be-
quests for the Oklahoma Society
for Crippled Children, Wentz’s em-
ployes, the Masonic Charity foun-
dation of Oklahoma, the Lew Wentz
foundations at the University of
Oklahoma and at Oklahoma A. and
M. college, the city of Ponca City
and for relatives and friends.
The will disclosed Wentz years
ago set up the trust and placed in
it the bulk of his wealth.
Out of income and properties in-
cluded in the trust, and worth
perhaps $15,000,000, relatives had
drawn $500 or more each a month
before Wentz’s death.

Clark Denies
Dispute With
Chief of FBI
Hoover Displeased
By Use of Files
In Espionage Trial
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS
J. Edgar Hoover was reported
strongly displeased today by use of
secret FBI files in the Judith Cop-
ion espionage trial. But Attorney
General Tom Clark denied pub-
lished reports there had been a
heated dispute and that Hoover had.
resigned as FBI chief.
Ridiculous." Clark said. That
was his comment to reporters on a
copyright story In the Washington
Times-Herald saying Hoover was
qutting.
Clark made the decision to use
the FBI papers tn the trial.
There was no comment from
Hoover, but persons close to him
said he was pretty unhappy about
the decision.
Trial in 52nd Day
The Coplon case, meanwhile,
went into its 52nd day with the
defense attorney, Archibald Palmer,
demanding a long list of notables
as witnesses. He wants to start
with Dr. and Mrs. Edward U. Con-
don and Harold Ickes, former sec-
retary of the interior.
The government has objected
The decision was up to Judge Al-
bert L. Reeves in Washington to-
day.
In New York, more state depart-
ment secrets went into the evidence
in the Alger Hiss perjury trial as
the government laid the ground-
work for a comparative handwrit-
ing and typewriting analysis.
The prosecution claims the secret
documents were summarized by
Hiss and his wife for relay to a
prewar Soviet spy ring. Hiss has
denied the accusations.
Also in New York, the trial of
11 Communists charged with con-
spiring to advocate the violent
overthrow of the United States con-
tinued with the second witness on
the stand—Gilbert Green of Chi-
cago.
Picketing May Be Banned
Picketing of the federal court
earlier in the Communist trial may
lead to a law making such picket-
ing unlawful. In Washington today,
two congressional committees were
studying legislation with this in
mind.
Other Washington developments:
Atomic scientist Frank Oppen-
heimer, an admitted former Com-
munist who appeared before the
house un-American activities com-
mittee yesterday, apparently is not
going to be pinned down to telling
house investigators whether some
of the people he knew were Reds,
too.
And the justice department is
studying non-Communist oaths filed
by three union officers, one of
whom said he had quit the Com-
munist party but still believed tn
it.

The speaker was introduced by

Green gave an interesting out-
line of the business conducted by
the state corporation commission,
saying that the commission, which
was originated in 1907, dealt at
that time principally with railroads
and had gradually, throughout the
years, been given additional assign-
ments involving the telephone com-
panies, trucking industries, oil pro-
duction, electric and gas companies
He pointed out that due to efforts
