Blasts Kill
8 in Texas
Rubber Plant
BORGER, Tex., Sept. 1—IfP— A
series of explosions and fires erup
ted at dawn today in a sprawling
synthetic rubber plant near here.
More than four hours later in
termittent explosions still were
shaking this Texas panhandle
city. At least eight men were in
jured. It was feared the fire would
spread.
The plant manufactures butadiene
and processes it into synthetic rub
ber. It i.s operated by Phillips Chem
ical Company for the federal gov
ernment.
Thick black smoke drifted over
Borger from the fire three and a
fourth miles to thg west.
The blasts and fire were in that
part of the plant where butadiene
is purified. Just across a narrow
road is the section where syn
thetic rubber is made.
Firemen fought to keep the blaze;
from jumping the road into the
synthetic prorv.sing plant. Luckily,
there was only a light breeze to fan
the blaze.
The injured were all company
employees from Borger.
kkhm New
Name for Ground
Combat Troops
WASHINGTON. Sept. 1——
Something new is being added to
the Air Force—the “Airbees”. _
That's the nickname given the
Air Force's proposed new combat
ground troops by chairman Vinson
iD-Ga) of the House Armed Servi
ces committee.
The Air Force would prefer to
style them “aviation engineer bat
talions.”
All this came out in a report, just
made public, of closed committee
hearings on a bill to authorize $5,
768.0C0.000 military construction pro
gram. The measure was passed by
the House and is now pending in
the Senate.
The House committee spent the
major portion of one session mull
ing over a request for $39,314,000 to
build up Camp Beale, Marysville,
Calif., as the first training center
for an Airforce fighting ground arm.

Senate Committee
Approves Military
Building for Alaska
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1—fPI—The
Senate Armed Services committee
today approved a vast military con
struction program to cost more than
$5flOQfiQGilM: it-teetedes -a-tauftw
of Alaska projects.
Senator Russell (D-Ga), chair
man, told a reporter a major share
of a 895,000,000 increase over the
amount authorized previously by the
House resulted from granting the
Army an additional $50,000,000 for
depot and storage facilities in con
tinental United States.
Another $23,400,000 was voted to
the Air Force for a troop carrier
wing base to be set up at Seymour
Johnson Air Force base at Golds
berg, N.C.
The committee also added more
then $22,000,000 for the Marine
Corps, but made no addition to the
Navy authorization.
The bill includes an Alaska mili
tary building program totaling more
than $335,000,000. It includes big
outlays for the air bases in the
Anchorage and Fairbanks areas, im
provements in the Kodiak Naval
Station and work on Aleutian bases.
The bill, however, is only an
authorization. Actual money would
have to be provided later.
