New Supercarrier To Be Built in East WASHINGTON (UP) — The Navy announced today that the third super aircraft carrier will be built in an East Coast shipyard. The Navy decision knocked out hopes of West Coast congressmen and other interests that the huge carrier would be built at the Bremerton Shipyard in Washington. The Navy announcement said since "no private yard on the Pacific Coast has the necessary facilities to build the new carrier," this ship will be constructed in a qualified East Coast private shipyard." However, the Navy said that the Puget Sound Naval Shipyard at Bremerton has been assigned the Navy's other large aircraft project for this fiscal year, the conversion of the U.S. Miday. The estimated cost of the Midway conversion is less than one-fifth than the estimated $12 million dollars for construction of the third supercarrier. The Navy said however, that the Midway conversion will require an estimated 800,000 man days of work, or about one-third of the man days required to build the new carrier. State Relief Rolls Holding Steady LOS ANGELES (UP) — California relief rolls have held steady the past four years, despite a huge population increase, and the state's welfare load is the lightest since 1950, according to Welfare Director Charles I. Schottland. Schottland, here for the West Coast regional conference of the American Public Welfare Association, told reporters yesterday most of the state's welfare money goes to the aged and there are 1500 fewer needy aged listed this year. "This seems like a small percentage of the 270,000 recipients "Atomic" Battalions To Go to Europe WASHINGTON (UP) — More than six atomic artillery battalions will be sent to Europe under American plans to give the West an atomic punch on the ground as well as in the air, informed military sources said today. Each battalion will be equipped with six mammoth 280 MM guns of the type tested last may at the Atomic Energy Commission's Nevada proving grounds. The May test indicated to some authorities that the gun's relatively small projectile, 11 inches in diameter and about three feet long, packs a wallop equivalent to that of the A-bomb dropped on Hiroshima from a giant B29 bomber on August 6, 1945. That bomb had an explosive power equivalent to 20,000 tons of TNT. Army Secretary Robert T. Stevens announced last night that the first battalion of the 280 MM guns, the 868th Field Artillery Battalion, Fort Bragg, N.C., will "shortly" go to Europe. He said "several" more will follow, but gave no number. Defense officials would not say whether actual atomic shells will be stored in Europe, but it was brought into play almost immediately in event of war. Ask Refineries Return To Prewar Methods PASADENA (UP) — Pasadena City Directors want Southern California petroleum processors to take up their prewar method of cracking and refining gasoline in an effort to cut down smog in the Los Angeles area.

Schoottland, here for the West Coast regional conference of the American Public Welfare Association, told reporters yesterday most of the state's welfare money goes to the aged and there are 1500 fewer needy aged listed this year. "This seems like a small percentage of the 270,000 recipients of old age assistance in California," he said, "but every 1000 persons cut from relief rolls saves a million dollars in welfare funds."

Crude Oil Production Decrease Revealed LOS ANGELES (UP)—Crude oil production in California during July amounted to 31,183,217 barrels, the American Petroleum Institute announced today. Daily output was 1,005,910 barrels, a decrease of 4,010 under June. The institute said 146 new oil wells, 5 gas and 1 service well were completed during July. Edison' Company Asks Increase in Rates LOS ANGELES (UP)—Southern California Edison Company's request for a $16,000,000 yearly rate increase is needed to attract capital for planned expansion, accord, ing to testimony by a fiscal expert for the utility. A. L. Burke said at a State Public Utilities Commission hearing on the request yesterday that the company's proposed expansion requires an 11½ per cent return on investment. The increase, if granted, would add about 25 cents to the average customer's monthly bill and $1.15 to commercial accounts. It is the first increase sought by Edison in 31 years.

Howard Claim Congress In Doubt About Some Ike Advisers WASHINGTON (UP)—The cur-ublican Policy Committee with rent move to stack the Senate Re-Taft men indicates congressional doubts about some of President Eisenhower's advisers. The recent White House merry-go-round with Taft-Hartley Act amendments may be a factor in the situation. Sen. Homer E. Dapehart (R-Ind) sponsors the plan. He failed to put it over early in the last session of Congress. The late Sen. Robert A. Taft was Senate Republican leader then and in a position to hold the line if necessary against the eastern faction of the party captained by Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York, and well represented among White House intimates. Plan Revived With Taft gone, Capehart has revived his plan with better prospects for its adoption. It would add to the powerful Republican Policy Committee all legislative committee chairmen. Among those who would join the policy group are: Sens. Joseph R. McCarthy (Wis), William E. Jenner (Ind), and John W. Bricker (O). Sen. Homer Ferguson (Mich) is policy committee chairman now. Adding legislative committee chairmen to this group would give the Middle West, for which Taft was the chosen spokesman in foreign and domestic affairs, as firm a grip on party policy in the Senate as the late leader ever could have sought. Taft, in fact, went far to compromise his own views to the convenience of the Eisenhower Administration. Powerful Bloc The policy committee as desired by Capehart would contain a powerful bloc as likely to fight as to compromise policy questions with the White House. The episode of the Taft-Harley amendments jolted the Taft wing of the party although it ended in the resignation of Labor Secretary Martin P. Durkin. When Durkin failed to get his amendments he took a walk, insisting that Mr. Eisenhower's White House aides had agreed to them. Denied but still not disproven here is the story that the 19 amendments were to have gone to Congress as a presidential message on July 21, end that pla The episode of the Taft-Harley amendments jolted the Taft wing of the party although it ended in the resignation of Labor Secretary Martin P. Durkin. When Durkin failed to get his amendments he took a walk, insisting that Mr. Eisenhower's White House aides had agreed to them. Denied but still not disproven here is the story that the 19 amendments were to have gone to Congress as a presidential message on July 31 and that plans were changed only because Taft was dying. A leak permitted publication of the amendments three days later and from supporters of the Taft-Hartley Act there came a startled blast of protest. Evidence Misleading If this incident failed to cause conservative distrust of some of Mr. Eisenhower's advisers, then the evidence 'is misleading.' The Taft-minded weekly, "The Freeman," contains an article by former Sen. Joseph H. Ball of Minnesota.

League president A. E. Archibald, addressing the opening session of the threeday affair, said California population is growing at the rate of about 8,000 persons weekly. By 1960, he said, the state will increase by 4,332,000 persons. "To meet the housing requirements of our added population over $8 billion in new capital investment will be necessary," he said. Archibald said the organization's business "has grown in all fields during the past six months, adding that the future savings and loans appear 'good.'" While there will be a leveling off or adjustment period as the result of the end of the Korean war, there would appear to be no justifiable reason for alarm in the change over from a war to a peace basis," he said. Archibald spoke after Los Angeles Mayor Norris Poulson gave a short welcoming speech. Also addressing the afternoon session were Carl P. Miller, in Angeles, Executive Director of the Wall Street Journal; Henry E. North of San Francisco; vice president of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co.; and J. Alston Adams, San Francisco, president of the Federal Home Loan Bank of that city. LOS ANGELES UP—The Automobile Club of Southern California estimated yesterday that the state will save $100,000 because of a vehicle code amendment which eliminates the use of a registration tab on the front license plate.

AN IMPORTANT SANTA BARBARA COUNTY LANDMARK: Mission Santa Barbara. Built in 1786, this is the only California mission in constant use by the founding order since its erection. The two towers and the facade of the church proper have recently been reconstructed, assuring continuance of this beautiful mission as a landmark for centuries more. Another important landmark—but one you seldom see—is the vast underground network of pipelines that carry plentiful, low-cost natural gas to all 13 Southern California counties. is cheap em California for very little money because domestic rates here are below the national average for all classes of service. That's one of the important reasons why Southern Californians live better, spend less. Natural gas can serve you only as efficiently as the age and condition of your appliances permit. The way to take full advantage of natural gas is in modern automatic appliances. If your present range isn't fully automatic, why not see the new models now at dealers?
