in 1854 was 1852, 900. 900, give

Anyway, the worlds popula-
ton is bouncing upward at the

The yearbook omits official

the greater Moscow population

Land susceptible to blowing and
some valuable topsoil was lost

grass or in stubble and crop resi-

is inconceivable that MISSISSIPPI

cast their votes for Adlai Ste
venson."
Circuit Judge M. M. MCGOWAN
issued the blast against Mr.. Ste
venson. who has been described
by Gov. j. p. Coleman as 1.-THE
best friend of the South among
announced candidates for the
Democratic presidential nomi-
nation.
In a formal statement, Judge
MCGOWAN declared:
There is probably not a po-
litical leader in the Nation who
has a worse record for socialism,
civil rights promotion and race
mixing than Adlai Stevenson.
In addition, being an intellec-
tual type of Socialist. he is more
dangerous than any of the other
candidates mentioned"

plans for a presidential elector

Lee Wins Bid
For Sd Term

SALT LAKE CITY, Aug. a up
Gov. j. Bracken Lee OVERRIDE
strong party opposition today to
advance to Utah's gubernatorial
primary election. The Cover
Inor's nomination at the State
G. o. P. convention was the
first major hurdle in his bid for
an unprecedented third term.
Convention delegates named
Gov. Lee and State Water Board
chairman George d. Clyde over
two other candidates to oppose
each other in the September IL
primary.
Gov. Lee drew 34S votes. Mr.
Clyde got 318. Trailing them
were State Sen. Renden N. Ma
hey of Bountiful, with 291, and
State Senator Elias L. Day of
Salt Lake City, with So.
The outcome was a surprise
because even the most staunch
Lee supporters had the COVER
nor tagged for second place. The
Governor himself predicted be-
fore the convention that he
would place second.
Another surprise was Mr.. Ma
bey's failure to win. Most polit-
ical observers had predicted he
would get the most votes.
Gov. Lee gained his victory
despite the fact that many Pc
publican leaders wanted to de-
rail him at this convention.
These men opposed him primar-
lily because of his criticism of
President Eisenhower and his
refusal to pay part Of his 1855
Federal income tax.
