Approval Sought
For Texoma Bridge
WASHINGTON, Sept. 30 un—The
Board of Army Engineers today
was asked to approve construction
of a bridge over Lake Texoma at
Willis Ferry on the Red River be-
tween Oklahoma and Texas de-
spite an unfavorable report by an
Army division engineer.
Sens. Monroney and Kerr, Okla-
homa Democrats, said the federal
government is morally as well as
legally bound to provide such a
crossing over the lake created by
building of the Denison reservoir.
When Denisom Dam was built
the federal government paid the
Oklahoma and Texas Highway De-
partments more than $600,000 each
to pry for a bridge.
The two states abandoned the
crossing due in large part to diffi-
culties in obtaining steel and other
materials.
Later both states sought to have
the government participate in
building the bridge with the high-
way departments paying the
amounts they had received from
the federal government. The dis-
trict engineer disapproved this.
TB Section Sought
For VA Hospital
AUSTIN, Sept. SO (—Gov. Shiv-
ers today asked all Texas mem-
bers of Congress to urge the Vet-
erans Administration to make part
of McCloskey Hospital at Temple
available for temporary use as a
state hospital for tuberculosis pa-
tients.
If the McCloskey space is not
made available for patients who
must be moved from Weaver H.
Baker Hospital at Mission, “our
only alternative appears to be the
immediate suspension of the admis-
sion of any further tubercular
patients in all state tuberculosis
hospitals until additional bed space
can be provided," Shivers said in
a telegram.
The State Hospital Board and
U. S. Air Force recently requested
the V. A. to allow temporary use
of part of McCloskey so the Air
Force might have immediate use
of Moore Field at Mission, where
Weaver Baker Hospital is located.

Before Grand Jury

Marshal’s office here today with
subpoena to appear before the
grand jury which was convened
today.

been called “to testify about 1948
gambling operations in Dallas."

trict court in Dallas on charges

policy operation and given a four
year sentence The case is on ap-
peal.

Ion. charged in Texas with gam-
bling, but now in Nevada.

vestigator from the U. S. attorney

Venezuela Says
Uprising Crushed
CARACAS. Venezuela, Sept 30
(—Venezuela’s military junta gov-
ernment says it has crushed an
attempted uprising by a "group
of terrorists" made up of Commu-
nists and backers of the former
Democratic action regime.
Government communiques said
the short-lived rebellions started
early yesterday at three points and
were quailed after five persons
were killed and 10 injured.
The government accused the reb-
els of trying to cause public dis-
orders throughout the country and
to upset the Nov. 30 elections—
the country’s first since the junta
overthrew the Democratic Action
Government four years ago and
sent President Romulo Gallegos in-
to exile. The leftist Democratic
Action Party has been outlawed
since that time.
