TWINING ON AIR POWER

Gays the United States may have to increase its expend
lures for air because Of Russian war
The Chief Of Staff said the current Russian effort to
come Americas atomic weapons superiority if successful
would force us into larger armament program.
Twining believes the United States should concer-
trate on the production of longrange jet bombers
able of bombing targets in Russia and returning to u S.
bases He made tclear Also that these bombers would
carry Americas most powerful weapon in time Of war;
The highest officer in the Air Force said the assump-
ton that the United States would not its powerful
weapons in IAN ultimate test of strength between the
nations that possessed them an incorrect one Thus
the Air Force Chief of Staff foresees brutal aerial war
in of conflict with Communism and one in which
this counrys ong-range bomber fleet will play domin
ant role, at least in the opening phase of the war
The significance Of Twining's remarks is that they
constitute reaffirmaton Of the u S. policy of strong
retaatory air force We have always agreed that such
striking force is absolute necessity for the United
States and because Of the Soviet threat to match this
countrys production Of atomic and hydrogen bombs we
believe Of necessity today than ever be-
fore.

From a Safety standpoint, the
inspection is a good thing. Even
with the inspection, there are too

Whether or not there is profit

where Boyer, as Pope lie Moko, a
famous jewel thief, hides out. Prac-
tically the entire action Of the pic
ture takes place in ''the Casbah. !"
mysterious native quarter Of AL
geria, a district which forms a ha-
ven Of refuge for criminals from all
countries.
As the story opens, Boyer and
his gang, fugitives from Paris,
have lived in the Cashah for two
yeATs, never venturing outside its
boundaries for fear Of arrest. In
the district they are safe from the
police in the adjoining French city,
who dare not modest them owing
to the ferOcity Of the natives
though the local inspector, Joseph
Calleia, continually watches the
genial crook. The only hope of the
officials is that they may lure the
jewel thief outside the Casbah and
thus bring about his capture.
Boyer, has taken refuge there
with his gang, content to live with
his wildly jealous sweetheart
played by Sigrid Gurie, and laugh
at the attempts Of the police, chief
" detective Simane, played by
Joseph Calleia, to try to lure him
out Of his sanctuary. \
One day the Casbah is visited by
a group of Partisan tourists, includ-
ing the glamourous Hedy Lamar.
She happens to meet Boyer and a
romance develops. Calleia views
the situation with satisfaction, hop
ing that circumstances will even
tually lure the fugitive outside the
district. In furtherance Of his
scheme, he tells Miss Lamar that
Boyer has been killed, and she and
her party prepare to sail for
France.
Learning that his new love is
leaving the country, Boyer risks ar
rest to board the ship on which she
is about to depart, and the pic
tire reaches a thrilling climax in
q series Of dramatic scenes on
the dock.
In addition to Boyer, Lamar,
Gurie and Calleia, the cast inelud-
es Alan Hale, Gene LOckhart and
many other popular artists. The
picture was directed by John
Cromwell and produced by Walter
WaAger. The story is by Detective
Ashelbe, with additional dialogue
by James M. Cain. All background

Texas Democrats Will Settle
Bitter Inter-Party Struggle

Brawling Texas Democrats nomi-
nate governor this week in a rum
OFF primary that is also another
round of a feud between Gov. Al
Ian Shiyers and US. House Min
ority Leader Sam Rayburn.
Former House Speaker Rayhurn,
his 22nd congressional term safely
tucked away, is backing Shivers'
opponent for governor, Austin at
torney Ralph Marlborough.
Marlborough has told campaign
audiences that Shivers ''isn't fit to
tie Sam Rayburn's shoelaces. !"
While Rayburn has kept in the
background, the veteran Democrat
is credited with throwing the ma
ticnal party's support to Var
borough.
Shivers has accused Marlborough
Of being controlled by Northern
labor and political bosses, and Of
having some supporters who are
friendly to. the Communists. Var
borough says this is a Shivers
''smear." He says Shivers knitted
the Democratic Party in the back
when he supported Dwight D. Eli
senhower in 1852. Union leaders
are openly backing Marlborough.
Underlying the barrage of tough
talk is conflict between Texas
Democratic factions standing for
widely split political PHILOSOPHERS.
The struggle between Rayburn and
Shivers is q symptom sOf t.

The real issue in the governors
race is who controls the Texas
Democratic Party and who viii be
running the delegation Texas sends
to the presidential nomination in
1856.
Texas voters failed TO settle the
issue with a clear cut majority
either way in the first primary in
July. Shivers led the fOur-man
ticket with 668, 913 votes to Var
borough's GAS, 994. The Aug. q run
off became necessary.
The basic fight is between these
two unyielding factions of Texas
Democrats:
/. Those identified with the New
Deal, Franklin D. Roosevelt and
Harry S. Truman and generally
labeled as the liberals" in Texas.
This time Marlborough is carrying
the ball with Rayburn in the back
ground.

If the county unit system of yot-
ing were in force in Florida last
May Charley Johns would un-
doubtedly be our governor for the
next two years.
That point was brought out Sat
urday during a discussion with
State Senatorial nominee Bill Neb.
lett Saturday. Neblett is neither
fur nor agin''> the proposal which
viii apparently be an issue during
his freshman term in the senate.
He's merely sounding out this con-
stituents to see how they (you and
u feel about the situation.
The county unit plan, which is
in force in Georgia, gives each
county block of votes. If a can
didate in a statewide election gets
a majority in any county, he is
given their unit vote.
Thus, as in the case of the cleo
toral system in national elections,
It would be possible for a candi-
date to win the popular vote-but
to lose the election.
That would have been the case
had the plan been in force last
May.
Johns carried 43 counties (the
small county bloc) and he would
have been an easy winner.
Even if the county unit plan
were set up to give the large coun-
ties more votes, commensurate
with their population, Johns still
would have won.
The plan would give the small
counties the edge-but they al.
ready have that in the legislature.

ANSWER TO

August 70. 1854
Editor, The Citizen:
The letter published in last

gestion among the Navy wives liv.
ing in this project, because II was

not need to state that she was q
civilian.
She states Maybe I've stepped

few others / don't know any.
thing about Capt. Murphy's toes
but my husband is one Of those
20 year men and she didn't Just
step on them, she ground them
into the coral that Key West calls
dirt.
First, the 20 year mans life Is
no cinch. The great American
woman should he glad indeed that
there are so many men who de-
vote their lives to the Armed Ser.
vices in peace as well as war,
for who knows when war win
come again. Nearly all Of the
20 year men We know have seen
war service. During VIVA and
Korea, where was the husband
that she finally mentioned in the
last sentence Of her letter? II
sounds like her husband has .
40 hour week job (probably on
the Naval hase) and maybe she
doesn't know that a Navy man
is on call "a hours q day, every
day. Also, about half of q 70
year mans career is spent away
from his family. He goes where
he is ordered, when he Is ordered
and stays there until ordered
somewhere else. H doesn't
choose where he goes.
Second, we don't expect the
civilians to pat the Shore Patrol
on the back. The S. P. is the
Navy and for the Navy, and the
Navy appreciates them. Very
few people complain about them
and their so called "Gestapo"
tactics, but just listen to the com.
plants and read the compliments
of the people about their civilian
policemen. personally don't
have a thing against the civilian
policeman as ! don't look for
trouble AMI have therefore stayed
out of trouble. incidentally, my
husband is not on the S. p, in
case American woman, who seems
to know who's who on the S. p.
wants to know. However, some
of my neighbors do have husbands
on the S. P. and they were among
those / mentioned having indlges-
ton.
AS for the housing situation be-
ing poor, it sure is. Civilians
seem to think any Navy man can
afford $100 or more for rent.
This Of course, is not true. Read
| the For Rent columns and see.
Children are welcome in efficiency
| apartments or houses with a high
rent. However, children are not
welcome where the rent Is low
enough for US. The Navy sends
us here and keeps US here. Did
anyone send American Woman
here?
| The Navy would also like TO
create q healthier feeling in this
town for the Navy Toys but an
the town seems able to do, Is TO
issue another bar license and
then complain because the boys
frequent the bars. That's one
purpose of our S. P. To keer
the boys from getting in trouble
at these bars.
| / agree that an American Is ar
American. regardless of what he's
doing-Navy, Army or civilian.
So Mrs. American Woman-Civil.
ian, re-read your letter and realize
that we 20 year families and the
Shore Patrol are also Americans
and we are proud Of it and try
ITO keep it that way so we viii
still be proud of it in the years
to come when we win be civilians
