|For Oil Attack
By the Associated Press

Thad Hutchinson. G. o. P.
candidate for the Senate in
Texas, yesterday accused Sena-
tor O'Mahoney, Democrat of
Wyoming, of an "unwarranted
attack" on the oil industry.
Senator O'Mahoney, chair
man of a committee looking into
the oil lift to Europe. replied
that Mr.. Hutchinson was indict-
ing Senate Republicans and
President Eisenhower himself if
he opposes the committees at
tack on "inflationary prices" for
gasoline and oil.
Mr.. Hutchinson telegraphed
Senator O'Mahoney that recent
oil price increases came as a
logical result of economical fac
tors long at work in the petrol
cum industry"
Cites Other Rises
In his telegram. Mr.. Hutchinson
said that oil prices had advanced
only 33 per cent above l947-49

Senator O'Mahoney replied
that the investigation was au-
Ithorized unanimously by the
Senate Judiciary Committee. an
appropriation to finance 1t un-
animously approved by the Sem

raised against the inquiry.

mental to that policy Is the
conviction that q free world

Free World Alliance

The overwhelming need Of
the United States at this time
is to restore the vitality. Cos
hesion, and strength Of the
alliance Of free nations.
The administration has
brought to a low point the
confidence Of our allies in the
integrity and responsibility Of
its conduct. In five years II
has undermined the trust in
the United States as CHIEF
protagonist and leader Of the
forces Of freedom and Of hope
It has given grounds for fear
and uncertainty TO hundreds
Of millions of people both with
in the United States and
abroad whose lives and free
dom depend upon the wisdom
integrity and courage Of United
States leadership. These fears
and uncertainties have weak
ened the free world and our
national security.
A strong coalition Of free
states is q prerequisite to the
continuing independence Of all
countries not under Soviet con-
troll. It is not from hope OF
power or glory that the United
States must shoulder the re-
sponsibility of leadership. The
simple fact Is that there is now
no other nation in a position
to give leadership in creating
and maintaining q coalition Of
nations and peoples strong
enough to stand up to the
t-Chinese threat. We cam
not by ourselves assure our
freedom and our security. mol
