Clark said Weeks, in reporting
a drop of 78,000 in unemploy-

Luther' Bohannon, Oklahoma
City attorney representing the
Otoes, predicted the cash pay-

per capita basis "within 10
months.”
The judgment, totaling $1,156,-

and did not explain the reason
for the shooting, but it may have
been connected with presiden-
tial elections coming up Sunday.
There was an uprising in the

The bill now before the presi-

The airforce general said he'
"completely agrees" with the
president’s concept that sepa-

peacetime preparation and or-

He declared that it is essen-

The Otoes, roughly 1,000 strong,
now live on a reservation near
Red Rock, 20 miles north of Still-
water.
Bohannon said the suit to re-
cover additional money for the
tribe grew out of two land deals
between the Otoes and the gov-
ernment in 1833 and 1854. The
first parcel of land, totaling 970,-
000 acres, was ceded to the U. S.
by treaty for about four cents
per acre. In 1854, the government
received an additional 2% mil-
lion acres from the Otoes at 42
cents per acre.
The land was located along the
Missouri river in Nebraska.
In 1955, the Indian claims com-
mission allowed the Otoes 75
cents per acre for the 1833 land
deal and $1.00 per acre for the
second tract.

Both Mansfield and Anderson
have offered tax cutting bills in
this session of congress. But the
New Mexico Democrat made it
clear he has cooled off on his
proposals, at least as to timing.
Few legislators believe con-
gress can block some general tax
relief in the pre-June 30 tax bill,
which must be passed, if busi-
ness shows no marked improve-
ment by mid-June.
But Mansfield said it is time
for President Elsenhower to call
the leaders of both houses of con-
gress. With ranking members of
the tax-writing committees, to a
white house conference on taxes.
Weeks is Angared
"It is evident that the upturn
we all had hoped to see has not
occurred,” Mansfield added. "I’d
say it is time for the administra-
tion and its financial experts to
let the people know what it in-
tends to do. It's time for the ad-
ministration to fish or cut bait.”
Meanwhile, Commerce Secre-
tary Sinclair Weeks angrily de-
nied a charge by Sen. Joseph S.
Clark (D., Pa.), that the admin-
istration was using "deception”
in its unemployment reports to
bolster a contention the reces-
sion is "flattening out.”
Clark had charged that while
April's gross figures showed 78,-
000 fewer persons unemployed,
the seasonally adjusted figures
reported a 372,000 increase in
joblessness.

the flash flood.
All highways in the area were
re-opened to traffic shortly after
daylight except 75A a half mile
south of Lake Texoma where a
bridge was washed out by water
spilling out of the Denison, Texas,
city lake, Lake Randell.
This bridge was washed out
about a year ago by water going
over the Lake Texoma spillway.
Climbed on Truck
The most dramatic rescue was
that of R. W. Pratt, Paris, Texas.
Pratt said he was driving his
large semi-trailer truck east of
Bokchito about 130 a m. Friday
—when his meter stalled or a
bridge approach.
. "The water began rising so fast
I jumped out and climbed on top
of my truck," Pratt said.

7 Inches Measured
Pratt was rescued by a Bok-

Fritz Walls, who heard his
screams and went to his aid in
a boat.
The' weather bureau reported
an official 5.37 inches of rain at
Durant but Frank Fodge, state

The rains stopped before day-
