and City Manager Lee Burton hae
leceived notice of appointment to
the legislative committee of the j
Oklahoma .Municipal League to;
faerve through 1962. They were
notilied by David Fudge executive-director
ol the league.

important committee of the league.
Its duties are to decide upon and
support proposals for city and
town governments to be made to
the next session cf the state legis-
lature and to study and oppose
those measures which may in-
juie them.
Most of our cities and towns
are in extremely bad financial
condition. All need new laws o
enable them to handle local pro-
blems Only the state legisature
can do anything about these prob-
lems. We need the best municipal
officials possible as members of
the legislative committee. We hope
you will be ab'e to accept this
appointment
That laM paragraph should go
to how all that the municipal
league thinks a lot of our mayor
and city manager too.

It is feared the death toll will

said.
At leaM 50 persons were in-

hospital treatment and scores
more received cuts and bruises.
Olficials said a heavy fog ap-
parently obscured the warning
signal and one train slammed
into the other at the junction near
here.
The trains were jammed with
an estimated 500 persons most of
them returning from weekend hol-
idays. The accident scene was a
rail crossing near this village 25
miles from Utrecht.
Dutch Premier Jan E. de Quay
and other high government offi-
cials went to the scene immedi-
ately. The nine coaches were so badly
shattered that officials said it
might take two days to clear the
tracks of wreckage. Feme of the
cars plunged down a 10-foot em-
bankment. M. Slager editor of a Harmelen
newspaper said he found pure
chaos" when he arrived on the
scene 15 minutes after the crash.
There was only one ambu-
lance on hand he said. As fast
as emeigency workers could get
victims out of the wreckage they
were laid down in the fields
There were dead and wounded
everywhere."
It was the third crash in three
years on the some stretch of Hol-
land's completely electiified rad-
way system.

WASHINGTON (UPI) Presi-
dent Kennedy and his top Cabinet
officers conducted a two-hour for-
eign affairs briefing today for
Republican and Democratic lead-
ers of the returning Congress.
GOP leaders who attended the
session said the discussion was
broad in scope. They said the
President made no specific re-
quests for bipaitisan support.
However Kennedy did outline
the need for such 1962 programs
as the overhaul of the reciprocal
trade agreements act which is
expected to be one of the main
issues after Congress reconvenes
Wednesday.
The meeting began with an
8.45 a m. breakfast in the White
House dining room. After about
an hour the conferees switched to
the Cabinet room adjoining Ken-
nedys oflice.
There they heard a series
of detailed presentations by Sec-
retary of State Dean Rusk D-
fense Secretary Robert S. Mc-
Namara and John A. McCone
