Approval Of Conna||y.
Texas Senator'S Son
And Alfred Expected

Ben C. Connally and James v.
Alfred. Houston attorneys, are ex-
pected to be confirmed by the
Senate as Federal Judges in South
ern Texas. Their names were
placed in nomination by President
Truman yesterday.
Mr.. Connally is the son of Sen
ator Connally, Democrat. of Texas.
and Mr.. Alfred is a former Texas
Governor and time judge of
the same court to which he again
has been appointed.
After the nominations were an
nounced. Senator johnson, Demo-
crat. of Texas. issued a statement
saying he had recommended the
appointment of the 39-year-old
son of his colleague to fill one of
the two newly-created South
Texas district judgeships.
Two Endorsed Equally.
For the other position, he had
given equal Endorsement to Mr..
Alfred and to B. D. Tarlton, a
Corpus Christi attorney.
Senator Conally issued a state
ment saying he had taken no part
in the nomination of his son, but
acknowledging pride in his selec-
tion.
Top-ranking leaders of the
Senate Judiciary Committee were
not available for comment, but
there was little doubt that they
would lend their support to both
Texas nominations.
Opposition that blocked the
nomination of Mr.. Alfred six years
ago to be a judge on the Fifth
Federal Circuit Court of Appeals
is not expected to be raised to his
present nomination to a district
judgeship.
ODaniel Also Objected.
The complaints then were
raised principally by Louisiana
senators who contended the ap-
pointment belonged to their State
because the vacancy being filled
was created by the departure from
the Circuit Court of a Louisianan.
The Circuit Court covers several
Southern States.
Former Texas Senator w. Lee
ODaniel, who had defeated Mr..
Alfred for the Senate in 1912, also
objected to confirmation.

Rolling Terrace Apartments
Get 7.9 Pei. Rent Increase

The rent control administra-
tors Office today announced rent
increase Of 7.9 per cent for ten
ants of the Rolling Terrace
Apartments, 1860 Peabody street
NV.
The increase, granted Kol
Realty Co., was short of the re-
quested Is per cent raise asked
Of Rent Examiner William F.
Mansfield. At recent hearings the
realty firm urged rent adjust
ments for 81 units of the dwelling,
claiming that since January,
l941, substantial" rises in main
tenance and operating costs had
occurred, as well as in real estate
taxes and water rent.
Newly adjusted rentals will
range from SAG per month for
two-1oom-a -and-bath units to $83.25
for four rooms and bath. These
rentals formerly ranged from
$42.50 to $77.50 monthly.

An,wer Ia DISTORTION,
Uncle Rays Corner
BY Romon coffmor

If people lived on Mercury, they
would have to stay on the dark
side. On the bright side they
would die In q hurry.
Life on some sections of the dark
side might be possible, but it would
hardly be pleasant The people
would see such planets as Venus,
the earth and Jupiter, but would
fail to see the sun.
Without even a moon to brighten
the sky, the residents OF Mercury
would have a dull outlook. They
could see the beauty of stars, but
could never read q book or news
paper unless they used candles,
lamps or electric lights. Their only
way OF having brightness in the
sky would be to creep to the edges
of the dark side, but they would
have to be careful to keep from
going too far, or else they would
be baked.

Mcclellan Proposes
New Formula 10 HeIp
In Balancing Budget

Chairman Mcclellan of the SEN
ate Expenditures Committee has
come up with a new formula to
help Congress in it's heretofore
fruitless efforts to achieve a bal
anced budget.
He introduced a resolution in
the Senate yesterday under which
the President would be required
to submit to Congress an "alterna-
tive balanced budget" to Congress
next January if his original
budget called for more than the
Governments estimated income.
The Arkansas Senator said his
latest proposal would mean that
If the President decided to recon-
mend expenditures in excess OF
revenues, he would have to add
another column consisting only OF
items that would leave the budget
balanced.
If accepted by the Senate and
House, the Senator said, this res
olution would give us clear-cut
test of those who do and those
who do not favor the common
sense doctrine of only spending
as much as we can collect"
The new budget balancing plan
came on the heels Of q report yes
terday from a group of university
economists that the idea of bal
anced Federal budget every year
is an unsound principle, which, if
followed. might upset the Nations
prosperity.
Senator Mcclellan failed recent
ly in an effort to have the Senate
vote to direct the President to cut
at least S per cent from appro-
priations made by Congress this
year. Since then some Senators
have estimated the Government
will have a deficit of at least
$4,000, 100000 at the end Of this
fiscal year next June.

the word?
A. The 20" is short as in dock. {"
Say: mee-dee-OCK- -ri-tee.
The word comes from the Latin
medius, middle: halfway plus
ocris, rugged peak" A mediocre
person, then, is literally one who is
halfway up a mountain. Hence,

excellence; undistinguished; ordi-
mary.
Note that the 20" of mediocre Is

Zion Passion Players:
My husband, my children,
my mother, and I saw the ''Pas-

last Sunday. want to tell you
it is the most wonderful and
spectacular play I have ever
seen. It will stand out in my
memory as long as I live, and
we are going to see it again
and again. My 12-year-old
daughter said she couldn't get
her mind on her school work
at all today, for thinking of the

has a lot of character, and so
has my 18-year-old son. Neither
one of them ever cry-they just
feel that it isn't manly; but on
seeing the Crucifixion, the
tears ran down their faces un-
ashamedly.
The whole cast is just about
perfect, but the man taking
the part of the Christus is out
standing. The scenery is superb.
Never in my life have I got
