so NEAR YET so FAR

A twenty-four-year-Old Cali
born1an named Ventura almost did
what no other golfer has ever
done. He almost won the famed
Masters golf tournament
The young Californian, although
still an amateur, missed by one
stroke. The young professional,
Jack Burke, caught Venture on
the last of four days of tense
and thrilling golf and won the
1856 Masters - which is played
on a course laid out by Bobby
Jones himself.
Burke's triumph kept intact two
records. First, it kept intact the
record that no amateur has ever
won the Masters, considered by
some the toughest tournament
along the pro circuit. 1t also
maintained the tradition that no
pro has even won the famed
tournament two years in success
sion.
Had not Burke triumphed, Cary
Middlecof would have won the
pro championship. He was the
1855 champion
Despite the fact that Ventura
didn't win the Masters this year
and that Jack Burke is the new
champion, he won a great moral
victory and made a record at the
Masters which will never be
forgotten. After about sixty holes,
he appeared to be a sure win
ner, and that is about as close
as any amateur has ever come to
making the pros eat crow.

OIL is LOCKED
IN THE EARTH

HeredOtuS, the ancient Greek
historian, reported in $50 B. c.
the presence of oil on the Gre
clan Island of Zante. But for
better than two thousand years
it has been virtually untouched.
The ancients used some of its
tarS to coat the bottoms of their
ships; except for this the oil has
had very little exploitation.
During recent years the Gre
clans could very we'll have used
this oil but it takes capital to
undertake serious exploration and
development. Burton Crane of
the New York Times said: about
five years after the wal the
Greek Government had some test
borings made but again lack OF
capital or enterprise prevented
action" Because of this lack of
capital Greece has cleared the
way for American risk capital to
revive what may have been the
worlds first oil-producing field
Oil is not deposited in the earth
ready for mans use. He must toll,
sweat, and risk his capital TO re-
cover it. 1t is a popular belief
that oil production involves no
more than pumping a valuable
substance from the ground. The
Greeks wouldn't be opening their
arms to American capital if this
were true.

was generally agreed that the
only Democrat who could defeat
Mr.. Cooper was Senator Barkley.
Senator Barley won by about
$1,000 votes. But the vote cast
for Mr.. Cooper was large enough
to have elected him in any other
oh-year election.
Four years ago. Mr.. Cooper
was elected to the Senate by APP

Mr.. Eisenhower lost the state to
Adlai Stevenson by only TOO votes.

Thanks to British Envoy,

The absence of brother who

Theresa Bernadette Murphy

none other than British Am

tered. Neither Senator Kefauvel
nor Adlai Stevenson-or any
other, Democrat - is entered
formally in the West Virginia
primary.
President Eisenhower and Sen
ator Kefauver are not running
directly against each other in the
Maryland primary - since the
Republican primary is confined
to registered Republicans and
only Democrats can vote in the
Democratic primary.
AS in other presidential pri-
maries, however, there will be a
tendency to measure the EiSen-
hover popularity against that OF
Senator Kefauver by the size of
the vote cast for each of them
Such a measure could be widely
incorrect. The Democratic regis
tration in Maryland is 752,50O
and the Republican only 315.916
almost 2l2 to l in favor of the
Democrats. Since Democrats who
may prefer Mr.. Eisenhower to
Senator Kefauver cannot move
into the Republican primary. and
since there will be so many more
Democratic ballots cast than Re-
publican, Senator Kefauver could
emerge from tomorrow's Mary
land primary with a larger vote
than that cast for Mr.. Eisen-
hover in the Republican primary
In fact. it will be considered a
black eye for the Tennessee Sen
ator if he doesn't.

dent Eisenhower ultimately de-
cided to run, he and the Ohio
delegates would support the Pres
ident. To all intents and pur-
poses. therefore, the Brickel
slate of delegate candidates is
an Eisenhower slate. Inevitably
therefore, the size of the vote
cast for the Bricker slate and
the size of tine vote for the
Lausche slate will be compared
Gov. Lausche carried the State
in 1852 by a wide margin when
President Eisenhower was win
ming it over Mr.. Stevenson by
half a million votes.
Conservative Democrats have
suggested Gov. Lausche as the
proper presidential nominee OF
their party. But Democratic Ma
'tional Chairman Paul NJ. Butler
has sharply challenged Gov,
Lausche-almost an attempt to
read him out of the party. How
Gov. Lausche shows in this pri-
mary-where he is also running
for the senatorial nomination
will provide an appraisal of Mr..
Buffers comments.
In some measure. this will
be Senator Kefauver's week in
the presidential primaries. The
Tennessee Senator will pick up
% convention votes in Indiana
and Is in Maryland. Some of
the delegates chosen in West
Virginia probably will be for Sem
ator Kefauver, though unin-
structed, and some of the Ohio
delegates, after they get through
voting for Gov. Lausche in the
convention. are expected to move
over to Senator Kefauver, if the

Twice Mr.. Cooper has been

land in 1882 by 104,087 votes over

lieve he could win there over
Senator Kefauver by a vote as
large or larger next November.
In the Indiana primary, where
Republican and Democratic reg
listration is more equal, the test
Iof the Presidents popularity
against that Of Senator Kefauver
may be somewhat more accurate
Also. the primary may reflect the
farmers dissatisfaction with the
Eisenhower administration - il
there is great dissatisfaction. as
claimed by the Democrats. Mr.
Eisenhower carried Indiana four
years ago over Mr.. Stevenson by
a margin of $4,000 votes.
Delegates to the national con-
ventions are not elected in Tues
days Indiana primary. But the
delegates to the State conven-
lions are chosen, and the State
conventions in turn elect the
delegates to the national conven-
tons. These delegates are COM
mitted by law to support the
party candidate for President
who wins the presidential pref
erence primary. In other words,
Mr.. Eisenhower and Senator Ke-
fauver will have the Indiana
delegates on the first ballot, if
not longer. in their respective
national conventions.
Much the same process of
choosing delegates to the ma
tional conventions takes place
in Maryland, where delegates to
the State conventions will be
elected in the Maryland primary.
The law is silent on how long
the Maryland delegates must
support the choice of their State
conventions.

The bill had passed the Senate
ard was on the House consent
calander and came UP in the
regular call Of the calendar. This
was one Of several bills blocked

told the House he was going 10
object to every bill coming over
20 the House from the Senate.
He did not explain to the House

Pay Raise Hangs
In BuIunce for
Commissioners

A pay raise for the District
Commissioners hung in the bal
ance today, as Congress rushed
toward adjournment.
An increase in their pay to
SIT. 500 was stricken yesterday
from a bill to give more COM
pensation to high-level execu-
tives in the downtown branch
of government.
The amendment, which had
been voted into the bill by the
Senate, was taken out by House
Senate conferees at an after
noon session on the measure.
Meanwhile, a separate bill,
sponsored by Chairman McMil-
Ian Of the House District Com
mittee and passed by the House
to give the city heads a raise to
SIT, 500, arrived at the Senate
District Committee.
Chairman Nicely Of the Senate
District Committee informed OF
both Of these actions, said he
believes the Senate did its part
when it voted to put the $l7,500
item in the executive pay in
crease bill.
The door still was open to
Senate action on the House bill
If a majority Of the nine-mem-
Der Senate District Committee
could be mustered to meet be-
fore Congress quits. But this
was considered doubtful.
