possible cure of a number of neuromuscular diseases and disorders,

Expresses Thanks
J he political season m J exas is now over for another
two year period and, for anyone who has spent the past
three or lour months on the campaign trail, the idea of
getting back to normal is most appealing. So it is with me.
It was a wonderful experience for me to meet and visit
with East T exans throughout the nine counties of the Third
Senatorial District. For one who was relatively unknown
in most of the district when the race began, who was under
the handicap of living in a small town in the light voting
end of a large district, and who had the further disadvan-
tage of much less political publicity and experience, 1 am
more than gratified at the respectable showing made.
While 1 did not win the office 1 did gain much more than
that in the cordial reception the people gave me, the friend-
ships made, and the renewal of my interest in and concern
for all parts of the district.
1 want to express my special thanks to all of the good
people in Cherokee County who supported me in my race
ior State Senator in the face of the ocas against me. It was
a wonderful expression of your confidence in me, and ! can
assure you your confidence was not misplaced. To those of
you in this area who did not support me, I want to say that
1 regret not being able to convince you of my sincerity of
purpose, my ability to be helpful in working out your
problems and the problems of the State, and my fairness
to all. 1 am not a politician and 1 am a poor salesman,
otherwise 1 might have done better. ! appreciate the con-
sideration shown me and the opportunity to meet and visit
with all of you. There was not an unpleasant incident in
the entire campaign with any of you, and ! thoroughly en-
joyed the personal contacts made. My thanks to all of you
for everything.
Sincerely yours,
1 rank Carpenter

WORLD OUTDOORS
*T*HE world-famous Kenal Na-
tional Moose Range in Alaska
is caught in Me center being
threatened of an oil bonanza which
recalls the frenzied days of the
territory's gold rush
Established by an Executive Or-
der in 1941, the wildlife refuge is
famous for its monarch moose, the
largest and most magnificent of all
species of North American mouse,
and for its big brown bears, Hall
sheep, mountain goats, and other
large and small animals.
An oil strike in one part of the
area this past summer has brought
visions of quick dollars to citizens
and oil companies alike Business-
men and politicals with an eye to
prospective expansion, are de-
nouncing Federal regulations and
calling for the speedy removal of
all restrictions on even those parts
of the Kenai that are ruled out
geologically.
Under fire are the Department
of the Interior's proposed regula-
tions for the control of oil and gas
leasing on Federal wildlife lands
The new regulations would permit
oil and gas leasing on less critical
portions of some types of wildlife
lands, and drilling would be al-
lowed on a limited basks in other
sections when it is shown that oil
resources belonging to the United
States are being tapped through
peripheral drainage. Oil and gas
operators would have to comply
with protective requirements es-
tablished by the U. S. Fish and
Wildlife Service and the Bureau of
Land Management.
Although the proposed regula-
tions would permit the orderly use
of wildlife lands where oil or gas
is present in commercial quanti-
ties, the most important effect of
the new order would be to protect
from unwise use those lands that
have been set aside and are being
managed for wildlife.
