A serious accident occurred on
the Smyrna branch between
Smyrna and Clayton Saturday
night when the locomotive and
one passenger car struck a brok-
en- rail. The engine and car had
come in from Clayton all right
and was going out to meet the
s o'clock train when the accident
took place. 1t was going at the
rate of about 20 miles an hour.
The engine was derailed and
turned completely around. The
engineer, George Hearn, aged SIS
years, of Clayton, was pinned
beneath the cab for an hour
amid escaping steam. His life
was saved through the herosim
of the fireman who threw cold
water on him.
A quiet wedding took place at
the residence of former State
Auditor and Mrs. George H. Dick
Saturday morning when their
daughter, Frances Edna, became
the wife of Robert D. Hoffecker,
proprietor and editor of the
Smyrna Times" The ceremony
took place at $50 o'clock and
was performed by Rev. Robert
Watt, pastor of Asbury Metho-
dist Episcopal Church. Only
members of the immediate fam
lilies were present.
Joseph B. HUM met with a
quite painful accident in his bar
ber shop Friday. He was descend
ing the stairs from the second
floor when he stepped upon an
empty cuspidor at the foot of the
stairs, which slipped under his
weight, and threw him heavily
to the floor, splintering his ankle
bone.

Yesterday was not only the

brought with it the first large
snow of the winter. 1t began
showing about noon yesterday
and was soon coming down in a
manner that threatened a bliz-
zard. The high wind caused
drifts in many places. 1t showed
until late in the night, and this
morning it averaged from six to
eight inches on the level.

Japanese Petroleum
Gets Assistance
For OffshOre Unit

Longview, Texas-The Japanese,
planning to search for oil beneath
the Sea Of japan, have come half
way round the world to purchase
technical assistance and know
how from a leading American
builder of offshore drilling plat
forms.
R. G. LeTourneau, Inc. has been
asked to supply component parts
and technical guidance" which is
needed to construct Japan's first
offshore oil drilling platform.
What this means is that the
more complicated ingredients and
"brainwork" for the project will
come from LeTourneau plants in
Texas and Mississippi, and yet the
completed platform can be stamped
made in Japan"
The contract, which pays LIE
Tourneau over 81 100000 in u. s.
money, is made with government
formed Japan Petroleum Explora-
ton Co., Ltd, of Tokyo also
known as the "Japex" company.
The japanese government owns
56.5 per cent interest in the COM
pany.
r. L. LeTourneau, vice presi-
dent of the Texas firm, said blue
prints and specifications for the
self-contained portable island" al
ready are being delivered to the
Japanese.
However, the hull and legwork
of the 4,O00-ton platform will be

U.S.. Tourists Find Spain UNIQUE"


lOrca and the Costa Bravo.
unique" is the word most
Americans use to describe
Spain. And unique" is the word
for SPANS open-sided "piggy
back" trolleycars for sightseers
(above). Rides are only a penny
apiece.
SPANS greatest attraction is
her people-proud, independent
yet friendly. Traditions of hos
pitality are as old as Don Quix-
ote. So are the traditions of
counting even if the language of
love often sounds like 1--WE. The
caballero at left, for instance, is
"skinning the turkey" while the
senorita tries to decide whether
to "toss him the hook" or "hand
him a pumpkin" Anyway, those
bars are for real.
Another big attraction in
Spain is the cathedral at San
tiago de Compostela (bottom).
Here, the remains of st. James
the Apostle, Patron of Spain, lie
buried. Like the pilgrims of the
Middle Ages, thousands of Wis
itors from all parts of the world
are expected to wend their way
across the Spanish countryside
this year, following the ancient
Road to st. James and Chris
tendom's third most holy shrine.
The feast of st. James is cele-
brated on July "a and Is.

Sees Unfriendly Climate
Harrison said that while he does
not think any drastic labor legisla-
ton will come out of the present
session of Congress, with the pos
sible exception of laws regulating
health and welfare funds, labor
must remember that it is operating
in an unfriendly climate.
He said there is a planned CAM
paign now underway, spanked by
business interests, to whip up de-
mands for tough labor legislation
through anti-labor stories in news
papers and magazines.
This legislation, Harrison de-
clared, reflects not only the ex-
posures made before the Mcclellan
and other committees, but also "the
venom and the spleen that the
enemies of labor feel they can now
pour forth to hinder the labor
movement"
Hits Knowland Proposals
He said the legislation proposed
by Sen. William F. Knowland (R-
Calif.) sis worse than the Taft
Hartley law" and that other pro-
posals are "just as bad"

he said, "that when the masses try
to get a better deal, businessmen
and politicians join together to
stop them through legislative
means"
Commenting on the state of the
railroad industry, Harrison said he
could see nothing but less and
less employment on a long-term
basis"
That" he said, "is painful, but
it is realistic; doubt we will ever
see the same level of employment
as before the recession"
