authorize him to undertake a null
ti-million dollar development of its

Mr.. Mccarthy few here by

acre tract. He said the bill al

approved by a parliamentary COM
mittee.
Mr.. Mccarthy said the tract
consisted of lots extending along
the Red Sea to a depth of 25 to
30 miles inland. Some dry holes
have been sunk, but only one is
producing, and that on a small
scale, he said.
To a question whether the ven-
ture was speculative. Mr.. Nc
Carthy replied: Yes. very specu-
lative, but I'm sure we'll get oil
wells"
The Texan said if the Parlia-
ment acted favorably, he would
take crew of about $50 men to
Egypt shortly after January / and
begin drilling holes to a depth of
4.500 to 5000 feet.

0utstripsU. Sewerage

The prison population at the
district reformatories at Lorton
Va, increased TT per cent during
1850, while the average national
increase in Federal and State
prisons was only IL per cent.
The figures were released today
in statistical report by the Fed
eral Bureau of Prisons.
| Gratifying to Federal prison Of
flcials was a drop of 1857 in
Federal and State prison popula-
ton throughout the country be-
tween 1889, when 1872 $3.50 we're in
carcerated, and 1850.
Although some increase was
noted, the predicted postwar
boom in prison population failed
to materialize," a spokesman said
eve do not know the exact rea-
sons but we feel that perhaps i'm
proved economic conditions and
greater use of probation in place
of prison sentences may have been
factors"
I Reason for the rise in the Dis
trict can only be conjectured,
Donald Clemmer, director of the
District Department of Correc-
tions, said. He attributed the in
crease in part to more efficient
police work.
While the Maryland prison pop
ulation declined during 1850 by
256, or 6.2 per cent of the 4,14o
figure at the start of 1850. Vir-
ginia's increased by 4.6 per, cent
to a total of 4,439.

prisoners under sentence in Fed
eral and State institutions at the
end of 1850 as compared to 1861

Besides the District and Vir-
ginia, % States showed increases
in prison populations and 19
showed declines.
Greatest percentage increases
were in Utah. 1877 per cent;
