Marines Seized by Iraqi Troops After Baghdad Depot Fire
Two U S Marines from the American Embassy Guard were arrested by Iraqi troops amid a fire at the Baghdad Petroleum Depot. Identified only as Sets, Hamilton, and Smith, they were off duty and caught in a roundup near the burning facility. The U S Embassy said they were unharmed and would be released soon, as a mob reacted to the blaze at the British-owned compound. The fire damaged multiple tanks and sent thick black smoke over Baghdad as authorities worked to control the flames and gaps in the crowd.

Recovery Signs Strong Recession Over Not Yet Says AP Analyst
Recovery appears promising though not complete. Government economists expect growth to recommence toward prerecession output around year's end, with some forecasters predicting a mid 1959 full employment target if conditions hold. Unemployment likely stays elevated as the workforce grows, with productivity improving as fewer workers produce the same output. International tensions could alter forecasts if conflict widens.
