Provided the practices NEW ORLEANS Former President Harry S. Truman said Saturday night peace cannot be attained "by sitting down and wishing for it." In a speech at the 16th biennial convention of the National Federation of Temple Brotherhoods, Tru-rrfan warned the nation cannot throw away its defense "in the silly hope that after we have disarmed and are helpless, the Communist nations will do likewise." "We cannot win their good will by sacrificing the liberty of other free nations to their rapacity." The former president termed the Job much harder than that.

He said the struggle can be won "if we have faith and keep our powder dry, just as we have won in the past." Making what he called in advance a non-political speech, Truman said: "We believe that the values we cherish were given to mankind by God, and that as children of God, brothers together, we are under a duty never to give up, never to surrender those values. "After all, our forefathers had faith when they were building this nation. They had faith in liberty. and toleration, and equality be tween men because they believed men were given these things by their creator. "They did not give 1 up, even though the struggle must have seemed perilously close to failure at times," Truman said.

He said our forefathers' faith "did not mean closing their eyes to dangers it meant marching for ward to overcome them. That isj what our faith should mean to us." Truman said the people must believe that the things given to them by God are good for all men. "We must believe that, if we persist, these fundamental principles will liberate human spirit, and in time to come, will bring about the overthrow of all forms of tyranny over the minds of men." He said people must act and talk for brotherhood, "and then our ideals of freedom for the whole world can and will be accepted." At a Dress conference earlier Sat urday Truman said he believed Southerners were sorry for what they did in 1952 and would return to the Democratic ranks in 19o6. He was referring to the split in Democratic ranks which carried four Southern states Texas, Flori da. Tennessee and Virginia into the Democratic party.

He declined to name any one Democrat as his No. 1 choice for the presidency. Asked whether he has hopped off the bandwagon of Adlal Stevenson, Truman replied: "He (Stevenson) has got to announce before anyone decides to support him." Truman included Stevenson and New York Gov. Averill Harriman among those he considers good presidential material. Investigators Sure They Will Find Crash Cause LONGMONT, Colo.

J) Investigators expressed belief Saturday that their inquiry into the crash of the United Air Lines plane that took 44 lives would reveal the type of explosion which caused the disaster. Furthermore, Jack Parshall, Civil Aeronautics Board investigator who heads the probe, said he was confident the continuing investigation would disclose where in the plane the blast occurred and what set it off. The New York-to-Seattle DC6B disintegrated in the air Tuesday night 11 minutes after leaving Denver and crashed on a Weld county farm. UAL engaged an explosives expert to check pie possibility that the plane was sabotaged. The FBI also is aiding in laboratory work.

Parshall discounted rumors that the investigators have found traces of nitroglycerin in the wreckage. "That's a ridiculous rumor," Parshall said. "We have found absolutely no evidence of nitroglycerin. In fact, no particular explosive is under special suspicion." Parshall said the investigation may be completed in two or three days. A public hearing will be held later.

CLEAR FIELD IN CODY There is no opposition In the Cody councilmen races where in cumbents Albert Schultz, Dick Shaw and Maurice E. Smith are candidates. The Casper and Chevenne mayor races have considerable state-wide political significance.

Should Nicholas regain the Casper mayor's job it would strengthen his position for another try iit the congressional nomination. In the Cheyenne race, Cheever was closely associated with former Gov.

Being able to get water when and where it is needed often makes the difference between profit and loss farming, and that can be as true in Wyoming as in other areas throughout the Nation, Christensen said. Funds for farm irrigation have been included In a number of loans to farmers in the State.

Farmers contemplating the installation of irrigation systems of any type are advised to get advance expert technical assistance before going ahead with their plans. Mr. Christensen said an applicant, for an irrigation loan can obtain technical assistance from the Soil Conservation Service, Extension Service, other agencies, or, at his own expenses if any, from private individuals or firms. The Farmers Home Administration will help the applicant in determining that the engineering is feasible, that the cost estimates and plans appear to be complete and reasonable, and that the improvements are in line with approved practices. If the loan is made the Farmers Home Administration makes sure the funds are used for authorized purposes and that the construction meets approved standards.

The agency will also help develop and carry out 6ound farm and home plans when major land-use adjustments are involved. Applicants must comply with any State laws or regulations governing the use and appropriation cf water. They must also be sure that the wa ter supply will be adequate, and that their use of the water will not likely be contested by other users or own ers. Soil and water conservation loans may be made by the Farmers Home Administration from insured or appropriated funds for many purposes other than irrigation, Christensen Panel Discussion on Mental Health Slated A panel discussion on mental health problems will be held at 2 p.m. Wednesday in the Women's Club House under the auspices of the current events section of the Women's Departmental Club.

Parsons, pastor, announced today. Principal speaker for the cere monies will be Dr. Sidney H. Buck-ham, newly installed superintendent Expense Tabs Helpful To U.S. Worker WASHINGTON (IP) House in vestigators were told today how life bldssomed for Frederick L.

Frank lin when he transferred from the government payroll to private industry without changing his desk. Franklin went to work for Vanadium Corp. of America on Oct. 16, 1952. at $12,500 a year.

He continued working at the same desk at which he had been getting a government salary of $10,800 a year. But he explained to a House Monopoly Subcommittee Investigating WOCS businessmen who serve the government "without compensation" that the big difference came at lunch time. Franklin said he could and did frequently invite "four or five people out to lunch and I would pick up the tab" by virtue of a $300-a-month expense account provided by Vanadium. Franklin added that he once spent $150 on a party for 40 employes in his branch at the National Pro duction Authority who were being let out in a government economy move. He explained that when he was hired by Vanadium, It was arranged beforehand that he would be granted a temporary leave of absence by the firm to continue working, at his same government job.

Franklin was a WOC for seven months, until April, 1953, when he went to work full-time for Vanadium. He now is the firm's district manager in Cleveland. As a WOC, he was assistant chief and later chief of the ferroalloys branch in the commerce department's national production authority. He assured the subcommittee that he never showed any favoritism toward Vanadium, although his job required him to consult frequently with Vanadium and other firms in the metals industry. "Didn't you feel it was anomalous that Vanadium would give you a $300-a-month expense account?" "No sir, all the other WOC's had unlimited expense accounts," Franklin said.

"I would have felt slighted, if I wasn't given one." He said the company's "prestige" was involved in whether he paid lunch checks. "You didn't want to get the reputation as a free-loader?" asked Rep. Byron G. Rogers "That's right," Franklin said. First Tax Installment Is Delinquent After Nov.

1 0 County Treasurer Edness Mok-ler notified taxpayers Saturday that the first installment of their 1955 property taxes will become delinquent on Nov. 10. Penalties may be avoided, Miss Mokler said, by paying trie first installment prior to Nov. 10 or by paying the entire amount of the tax before Dec. 31.

were similar in appearance. There was no cloud, however, from the flash Saturday morning. The driver said he heard no noise from an explosion but that if there had been any report it might have been drowned by the sound of the truck motor. An official of the U. S.

Weather Bureau station here said there had been no additional reports of the occurance. He speculated it may have been a shooting star explosion, which can cause an intense brightness of occasions. Mr. Schloesser called the Tribune-Star Saturday to inquire if there had been any other reports of the spectacle. of the Intermountain Convention, of Congregational Churches.

Other speakers will include the Rev. D. E. Allen, First Christian Church, Rev. R.

C. Clingman, St. Mark's Episcopal Church, Rev. Verne A. Robinson, Rev.

Alan Inglis and Dr. H. H. Lindeman. Following the service of dedication there will be open house and a tea for others in the city wishing to visit the new chapel parsonage.

The tea will be given by the Women's Ascociation, Mrs. Murray Wells, president, in charge. The recent history of the young church group has been marked with difficulty and disappointment, reports Rev. Parsons. The church was first organized by a special council of the Wyoming Conference of Congregational Churches on Nov.

4, 1954. The first reception of members was on the following Sunday. Rev. Parsons came to Casper from Newell, S. in May of 1954, at which time plans for a church were begun.

The church group met in various meeting places during the year. The chapel and parsonage are the first in the group of buildings to be constructed for the church. A study committee is at work making a thorough study of building needs anticipated for the new congregation during the next 10 years. The new church building is expected to be started some time in 1956, and "later additions to the church plant will be made as fast as required by the growth of the congregation. Esther Morris Board Approves Artist Choice CHEYENNE The Esther Morris Memorial Commission Sat urday unanimously approved a contract between itself and sculptor Dr.

Avard Fairbanks of Salt Lake City. Fairbanks was selected earlier this year as the sculptor of Wyoming's Esther Morris statue to be placed in Statuary Hall in Washington. The contract will be drawn up by Atty. Gen. George F.

Guy. Executive Vice Chairman Frank Bowron said' the commission also approved a list of persons from which Gov. Milward L. Simpson will select county fund-drive chairmen. The goal, to be, raised by popu lar subscription, has been set at $35,000.

Bowron said $4,000 in contributions has already been received. Wyoming's 1955 Legislature authorized enshrinement of Mrs. Esther Hobart Morris of South Pass City. She was a leader in the state movement for women's sufferage. The statute of bronze is to be from 8 to 9 feet high and will stand on a granite pedestal approximately four feet high.

Fairbanks estimates completion of the statue will take from one year to 15 months. Members of the commission attending besides Bowron were Simpson, chairman; A. J. Harden-dorf, Lander; Mrs. Barbara Cross, Douglas; and Mrs.

Jean Morgan, Gillette. 5 Bowron said concentrated drives are tentatively scheduled for January and February, 1956, with Simpson, Hardendorf and C. B. Richardson starting a major contributions campaign soon. Use Tribune-Herald Want Ads For Better Bus Service Vote for W.
