State Highway 68
Is Changed To 48
' The final approval on a request by Holdenville and
several surrounding towns to change State Highway 68 to
SH 48 was given Friday by the State Highway Department
when department workmen began installing new SH 48 signs
all along the highway route from SH 9 north of Holdenville
to Allen
The redesignation request was
made lest April when a delegation
of Chamber of Commerce officials
from Holdenville Atwood Bear
den and Okemah met with Gov
Raymond Gary and S M Wil-
coxon district highway commis-
sioner "I can certainly see why you
people want title highway redesig-
nation and I certainly doe't think
It is an unreasonable request"
Gov Gary told the group of civic
leaders Shortly thereafter the
highway commission approved the
request and local residents along
the old $H 68 have been awaiting
some tangible proof of the change
— that of installing the new SH 48
signs
The change affects a strip of
highway from Allen through Hot-
denville to a point north of Bear
den Old highway 68 was a con-
necting link between highway 48
through the state
The new designation will ex-
tend SH 48 from Bryan county
(near Durant) north to Mannford
west of Tulsa Highway 12 from
Atwood to Allen will coincide with
SH 48 for seven miles
"The redesignation of highway
68 to 48 completes the missing link
between an important across the
state road" Senator Hugh M
Sandlin said recently - -
"Holdenville will now be located
on two highways that are familiar
to everyone — 270 and 48 and I
think we will see an increase in
traffic through Roldenville in the
very near future" he added
Local ehamber of Commerce of
ficials Wurday said an even more
Important aspect of the change
was the fact that the highway prob-
ably would be up for improvement
much quicker now that it is a part
of SH 48
"This redesignation will mean a
(great deal to the economic welfare
of Hughes county in the years to
come" Rep Stanley Huser Jr
said today "We feel certain there
will be an increase in traffic sim-
ply because tourists are familiar
with highway 48 whereas they
probably nevet heard of 68" he
added
"Moieover it's going to be a lot
easier for us to secure necessary
Improvements in the future for
we are going to be talking about
improving and repairing a road
that now crosses the state — not
just a short leg of highway be-
tween SH 48 on either end" Huser
said
At the time of the meeting with
Gov Gary a written proposal pre-
pared by the Holdenville Chamber
of Commerce was left with the
highway commission for comider-
ation The proposal presented a four-
point argument for the redesigna-
tion of SH 68 to SH 48
According to the proposal route
48 of the state highway system
!began in Bryan county and term
mated at Allen in the edge of
Hughes county For some 50
miles north of this point and a
point approximately 3 miles west
of Okemah route 48 began again
end ran north toward the Kansas
border
This gap the C of C groups
argued in its proposal was un-
necessary for highway 68 began
at a point at the southern termin-
ation of route 48 is Okfuskee coun-
ty and ran through Hughes coun-
ty and through Holdenville and At-
wood terminating at approxi-
mately 3 miles south of Allen
The proposal suggested this pro-
duced a missing link in the high-
way 48 system and SH 68 should
be changed to SH 48
The proposal also added that
route 12 between Atwood and Al-
len could run parallel with the
new SH 48 and this change would
make an almost continuous road of
improved black - top across the
state
The written proposal also
brought up the fact that a bridge
had been built across the Canadian
River at Atwood so that no new
bridge construction would be im-
mediately necessary if the change
were made

In the coming year as they have
done for us in the past three"-
Patrol Plan
Decision Due
OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)—Gov
Raymond Gary declared Saturday
that the people of Oklahoma must
decide whether they want to spend
more money to hire additional
highway patrolmen in an effort to
substantially reduce the state's
fatal auto accidents
Gary sounded out the taxpayers
on the idea of putting more money
into the highway patrol in his bi-
weekly radio speech The talk was
devoted to the highway safety
assertcd that experts who
conducted a survey ordered by the
Governor's Safety Council recom-
mended "basically what I have
just said — increase the number
of troopers on the highway"
Oklahoma has had a slight de-
cline in fatal accidents this year
and Gary attributed it to the addi-
tion of a few patrolmen and ex-
tending the patrol's coverage
areas
' If the people of Oklahoma ex-
pect any substantial decrease in
serious highway accidents beyond
what we have now been able to
accomplish however I believe it
is a simple question of deciding
whether they are willing to pay
the price for a big Increase in the
number of troopers" Gary said
Gary said he had been told by
Lookabaugh that "it will be very
difficult for us to make any real-
ly great additional improvements
in the highway accident rate un-
less we are willing to put several
million dollars for an expanded
highway patrol"
"As with most departments cf
state gmernments the basic prob-
lem facing Our Oklahoma High-
way Patrol is the lack of sufficient
money to do what might be done"
Gary said "The patrol itself fias
done what it can to increase its
own revenue"
Gary cited the practice of send-
ing regular notices of driver's li-
cense renewal and cracking down
on drivers without licenses
The governor said rural deaths
have decreased this year while
city traffic has been more deadly
"We must have better enforce-
ment in our cities" Gary said "or
Improvements made by the high-
way patrol will hardly be noticed
in the overall picture"

Ike To Take Offensive—

By WILLIAM J EATON
United Press International
WASHrNGTON (UPI) — Presi-
dent Eisenhower will take the
offensive at any summit meeting
on the Middle East and confront
Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev
with wide-ranging proposals for
stabilizing that crisis-ridden area
This unqualified assurance came
Saturday from a high ranking
American official who asked only
that his identity not be disclosed
The source implied that Eisen hotter may put forward some
proposals as dramatic as his
famous "open skies" disarmament
plan which was presented to Rus-
sia at the June 1955 summit
Conference at Geneva The official
refused to go into detail but he
said the proposals might take the
Kremlin by surprise
The President Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles and other
top administration officials are
trying to put the finishing touches
on the American plan in time for
an Aug 12 summit meeting if
one is held the source dirclosed
The United States Saturday was
awaiting Khrushchev's answer to
the President's suggestion that the
meeting begin "on or shout Aug
I?" and be held within the frame-
work of the United Nations Eisen
howcr advised the Soviet premier
that he was willing to meet in any
city except Mpscow Geneva was
regarded as a likely site
The American official said that

the Middle East the President
Saboteurs Set
Oil Explosions
RIO DE JANEIRO (UP!) — A
spectacular series of explosions
possibly set off by sabtteuts
ripped through an Army ammuni-
tion clump 10 miles from the heart
of Rio De Janeiro for more than
10 hours Saturday smashing
homes and stores and forcing
thoutands to flee
More than 12 hours after the
first blast occurred shortly after
michtig)it an official Army spokes-
man said that there were no
known deaths
Col Albino Silva said there were
many reports of injuries to fire-
men soldiers and civilians but
none was serious Nearly all the
injured suffered cuts and bruises
inflicted by flying glass and other
debris Silva said
"We cannot discount the possi-
bility that some civilians in sur-
rounding houses — some of which
were knocked down by the con-
cussions—mar be deLd or in-
jured" Silva said
"However there are no victims
we know of and it is very doubtlul
that there are any"
At the height of the series of
explosions 155 milimeter artillery
shells went off as though they
were strings of firecrackers
Flames shot into the air forcing
a fire company to flee and leave
a truck behind to be consumed
by the fire
The explosions at suburban De-
odor° set off speculation that sab-
oteurs ' might have ignited the
ammunition to reduce the potency
of the Brazilian Army's First
Infantry Division
Maj Gen Jair Dantos com-
mander of the division said at
least 12 of the 50 underground
magazines at the dump had beer
reduced to rubble a 10ES that will
amount to millions of dollars
Dantas said military authorities
suspected sabotage and an investi-
gation was launched immediately
even as small blazes continued to
break out from time to time
Nuclear Missile
Blasts In Pacific
Were Defense Tests
WASHINGTON (UPI) — Sen
Henry M Jackson said Saturday
that Friday's nuclear missile test
in the Pacific was aimed at per-
fecting defenses against both high
flying enemy bombers and inter-
continental ballistic missiles
Jackson a Washington Demo-
crat and a member of the House-
Senate Atomic Energy Commit-
tee envisaged nuclear anti-missile
missiles packing the violence of
one million tons (one megaton) of
TNT
Reports from Honolulu indicated
the missile warhead exploded Fri-
day over Johnston Wand must
have been detonated about 100
miles up Jackson would not con-
firm this or disclose the war-
head's power In terms of TNT
He did confirm however that
this was the first high - altitude
test of a US atomic warhead
borne aloft by a ground-to-sky
rocket Low-power air-to-air atom-
ic missiles have been exploded in
past US tests and there is some
belief that the Russians have
taged explosions in space above
the Arctic
Jackson told United Press Inter-
national thid the Johnstiti Island
test was "a very important shot
both from the standpoint of sci-
ence and of defense against high-
flying bombers and ICBM's"
He said "there will be more In
this area" of space above the
earth
