It’s great to rise on wings of faith Aod soar above the crowds Who doubt the blessed Word of God And live beueath the clouds; Who never bless a sinful world As on life's wav they trod. Nor leave their mark when they are gone To glorify our God. It's great to rise on wings of faith When ail around there’s doubt. And know that God will never fail To Ijead ns in and out, And bless us as we go through life Whatever be tne test, And take us home some happy day Where all is peace and rest. It’s great to rise on wings of faith When satan tempts us sare, And know there is reserved for us Somewhere in God’s great store A grand supply ot richest grace Which he will soon impart, That shall inspire us on in life In mind and soul and heart. It’s graat to rise on wings ot faith When going seems quite hnrd And when opposers seem to think Onr hope in God is marred; And yet this anchor of our hope Shall nevei, never tail, Because it reaches up to God Where demons ne’er assail. ThePending Labor Bills The cry that pending labor leg­ islations, whieh is supported in all its basic particulars by heavy tna- joritias in both Senate and House, is punitive and reactionary, and threatens to set the labor move mint back generations, is without justification in fact. What the leg islation would do is to curb labor racketeering, not only in the inter­ est of the workingman himself. For example, this legislation is designed to either prohibit or re­ strict such abnses as the closed shop, industry-wide bargnining, se­ crecy as to the disposal of union funds, and jurisdictional strikes. None of these matters in any way affect the right of the worker to get more pay, improve bis work­ ing conditions, gain greater job se* Mtilj, or m o ik W m ld ffl dertaking. The close shop must ootUwed because it has given Ia- bers—the policy is "join and pay tribute or starve.” Industry wide bargening has been carried t o where a single union boss can pre­ vent production of commodities, such as coal, which are essential to the public health and welfare. Se* crecv in use of union funds en­ courages obvious rackets, and de-: nies the right of union members to know where their money is going.

New Invention For Farmers The State. An ingenious device which will save farmers hundreds of hours of hard work has been invented and successfully tested in the fieids by a Union County man, T. Clifford Williams, of the Rock Rest com. munlty. Calling his invention an “End Gate Seeder,” Mr. Williams said the machine is designed to distrib. Ute any material that Sis broadcast and to do in fifteen minutes the work that requires a full day it done bv the old-fashioned method. That the machine will do the job was proven at a demonstration held at his farm five miles east of Mon­ roe last week. Mr Williams got the idea about two years ago when his back he. came wearv from broadeasting top dressing on a grain field by hand. After a day's work only four or five acres had been dressed and, according to Mr. Williams, "I was not able to do any work the next day.” So he sat down and put on p per his idea for the machine. A few months later he had a rough pilot machine made and several more months were required to eli­ minate the “bugs.” Now it is perfected and is nsed whenever any material, including soda, top-dres- ing, lespedeza seed, and clover seed is required to be broadcast. The device is mounted on the back of a two-hoise wagon bed which may be drawn hv animals or a tractor. Power is provided by a take off on the left rear wheel of the wagon, with a v belt being em. ployed. Gears turn a large, groov­ ed rotating pan which can throw top dressing over a sprsad of 24 to 36 feet. Mounted over the pan is a 200 -lb capacity hopper, designed so that material fed into it will not clog. There is nothing particular­ ly complicated about the machine and the wonder is that such an im plement has not been in use long ago. One man can operate the ma. chine by filling the hopper, setting the adjnstable feeder ittlie desired rate, and driving the Ham or trac. tor. With one man operating, it is necessary for him to stop wheu 200 pounds of material has been distributed. With two men oper­ ating, there is no need to stop un* ill the capacity of the wagon has been expended. Mr Williams said that he can treat an acre in five minutes,' but that the average is seven minutes By hand, a man is a good worker if he does four or five acras a day. Just recently, the Rock Rest farmer top-dressed an I t-acre field in ex­ actly 55 minutes by the clock, facture the new Iarm machine for the market, but when it will be a- vailable is not known at this time, due to the scarcity of metal and fa­ cilities for manufacture Mr. Wil­ liams hopes, however, to be able to have some available bv next spring. He won't know the sell­ ing price nntil he can make ar­ rangements lor its manufacture. Guernsey Sets Record Peterborough, N.

Per. sons whose names do not begin with one of the above letters can­ not apply for re issuance of license in this period The period beginning January i, 1948. and ending on June 30 , 1948, will he the time for all operators whose sur-names begin with either of the letters C or D to apply for re issuanee of licenses. All Motor Vehicle drivers whose surnames be gin with a letter other than A, B, C, or D will be notified by press re leases at the proper time as to when thev should appear for the re-examlnation. The operator's license issued un­ der the 1947 Safety Act shall auto­ matical! v expire on the birthday of the license in the fourth year following the year of issuance, and no license shall be issued to any operators after the expiration of his license until such operatoi has again passed the required examina­ tion Everyone will get a complete ex­ amination. The examination is made up of four parts. These parts: (1) An Eye test (2) Highway Sign test (3) Driving Rules test (4) Road test. The poorest visual reading that will permit passing with glasses is 2 0 /50 . This may be with both eyes together, or it may be with best eye alone The Sign test con­ sists of the showing to the appli­ cant several pictures contaiug Highway Warning signs. The ap­ plicant will be requested to tell what a driver should do when he comes to such a sign Inability to read is not grounds for denying a driver license, The Rnle section of the exacainatton consists of twenty five simple questions that deal with the safe operation of a motor vehicle. The Road test will consist of a drive of some twelve to ffteen city blocks. Iu the past some applicants have begun road tests with the understanding that the Examiner would tell him to pass red lights, exceed speed limits, and otherwise drive improperly. This, however, has not been the policy in North Carolina nor will it be during this re-issuance. Previous practices governing the « Pb m|ts will not be changed. The only change that will occur with re­ spect to frees charged will be tbe increase in the cost of an operator’s licenso from one two dollars. $100 Soup To Nuts From David Lawrence's Column: There is something incongruous about a $210,000 dinner in which Federal office-holders, lobbyists and politicians are able to pay $100 a plate and the chief attraction at the banquet is a speech such as President Truman deliveied . . .

It’s against tbe law tor Federal officeholders to be solicited for fed eral officeholders to be solicited for political contributions, so tbe cus. tom now is to hold a dinner for which the cost "per plate” is an­ nounced as $100 when everyone knows the bulk of the money doesn’t go for food but to replen­ ish the political cnmplaign fund of the Democratic Party.

LRST LDYER Twenty-five years have elapsed since the disappearance ol Richard McFarlane In World War I and his wife, Julia, Is beset with fresh worries as the children she has raised with the aid of her father-in-law, John I. McFarlane, be­ come involved In World War n . Ric has “washed out” of the air corps while Jill falls hopelessly In love with Lieut, Spang Gordbn. Jill and Spang go to a dance and when Spang doesn’t profess his love for her, Jill is hart. He does tell her. however, that Ric Is paying attention to a divorcee of questionable character. Jill determines to go to camp to see her brother and also to talk to Spang again. She tells Jnlia her plans. CHAFTEB VI “I think it’s a beautiful idea. Dave was in love with you when you were seventeen, he told me so. Grandfather’s old, and I’m not go­ ing to be around forever—-I hope. Though you may have me on your hands. Maybe I’ll be one of those bright spinsters who fade reluctant­ ly and get horsy, with tanned-leath­ er hides and lean hands that grab for highball glasses. Or I might turn coy and wear pastel-colored clothes too young for me, and make up tales about my lover who died in the great war. Could be.” “Don’t be disgusting, Jill!” Julia spoke crisply, as she went out. Julia went to her room and closed the door. Though the working out­ fit she wore was soiled and dusty, she sat down on the edge of her prim white bed. Jill’s abrupt remark, flung in her face as ruthlessly as a dash of cold water, had set stirring within her that current of rebellion that she had fought so long and con­ quered up to now. Why couldn’t she grow old? Old and cold and patient, with no damp­ ened fire flaring to trouble her at unexpected moments, no dreams to drift like sunkindled clouds across her dull horizon? What a relief to be old, so that she would never again have to know this aching lack, this hunger within herself for a lit­ tle understanding, a little tender­ ness! Richard was dead, and yet he would not die. Something of him stayed alive, to tease and haunt her, as he had tortured her when her love for him had made her abject and naive and too pitifully vulner­able. For years John I. had been nag­ ging at her to have Richard de­ clared legally dead. So many things were involved, he argued. The title to the property, her children’s in­ heritance, everything she had worked so long and so hard to at­ tain. What money John I. had, Julia knew, was willed to Jill. He had al­ ways been a little impatient with Ric, dubious about' him. Money ruined the McFarlane men, he de­ clared, softened and spoiled them. Only work could save them. Be­ cause she knew how John I. felt, Julia had been a bit more generous with her son, foolishly generous, no doubt, but her lenience had eased some grimness in her, the unfor­ giving thing she had not been able to conquer. The war, the air corps, had been right for Ric, she was certain. The farm had always irked him, but his recklessness would be appeased by combat. She had put her maternal apprehensions down and forced her­ self not to worry. Ric had to do this thing, it meant salvation for him. And then for some reason un­ explained—because a desperately efficient army machine never both­ ers with explanations — Ric had failed his examinations for the ca­ det corps. “The punk!” Jill had been scorn­ ful. “He slid through college on his ear, and he expected to get by a military board the same way. He’ll be a Joe gunner or a grease monkey now.” Haunting Memories Of Richard But Ric’s luck had held, the same luck that had been with him when he talked himself out of jams at school, when he slid free of speeding charges, when he wangled extra money from his fuming grandfa­ ther. He had got an assignment to officer’s school. “He’ll flunk it, you’ll see,” Jill said. But Julia had held to hope be­ cause she was Ric’s mother. Ric was her deep heart, Ric was the man in her life. But never from her handsome, insolent son had she had consideration or tenderness. To old John I. she was a partner, adequate, standing on her own feet, wise. But to Dave Patterson she was a woman. Leaning her burning cheeks in firm palms, Julia wondered if she had depended on Dave too much. He had been the one person to whom she owed no responsibility, other than the gladly given gift of kindness and comradeship—he had been a rock on which at times her weariness had rested. She had been fooling herself, of course. And now Jill’s sharp young ruthlessness had torn all her carefully arranged pretenses to shreds. Bhe had known for a, long time that Dave’s feeling for her was more than, friendliness. She had pushed the knowledge away, she had refused to acknowledge it, even to herself. She had tried to hold him off, yet keep him, too. She knew now how unfair she had been. Having little to give, she had taken too much, cherishing the small warm feeling of being separate, of being chosen. / Somehow, she had to make it up to Dave. That she could love him in return was something this rigid thing in her heart would not permit her to consider. She had frozen herself into a mold so long ago. She could not alter the form of what she must be to herself, but with that sureness came an overwhelm­ ing loneliness. She had dedicated herself to a memory, to a ghost, and it was like being chained to an unanswering tomb. The dreadful part was that there was always that secret feeling of menace about that tomb. “I’m a fool!” she said aloud, sharply, snatching her hands down and jerking her body erect. She doused her face with cold wa­ ter, gave her hair a few disciplining strokes with a brush. She had to take the truck and go out and check the com yield with John I. Love—she twisted her mouth as she thought of. it! There was ho “So nice to see you again, Spang.” time for love. And no dignity about it for a woman past forty, a woman who had spent herself for love once and got only a promis­ sory note for recompense. That it had been only the fevered passion of a girl, that this other ache in her heart was real and liv­ ing, she would not admit, even to herself. But Dave must not be hurt. He had loved another woman once, been married to her for a brief time, but she knew that that old love was now only something frail and sweet to Dave, a fragrance like that of a pressed flower, a wreath laid on a slender grave. But that grave had closed, while if she, Julia, had a grave to keep it would not green, it would not soften with time, it gave her no peace. Brother and Sister Talk A sidling thought came into her mind. Perhaps if she was clever about it, she could maneuver Dave into falling into love with Jill. He was too old for her—as old as her father, as a matter of fact—but Dave’s heart was youthful while Jill had grown a little too mature, had let her age trouble and tense her. It would solve two of her prob­ lems, it would ease her conscience, she thought. But also it would leave her terribly alone.' With no one but John I., who fought off age fiercely but' who must succumb inevitably to what he called “that damn almanac.” She would not think about herself, she would not think at all. She would concentrate on meat-curing formu­ las, she would give up bothering about lip-stick and the right foun­ dation garment. She would grow oldr like a country woman, with no graces—utilitarian. She made her­ self believe this as the little truck rattled up the rocky lane and through the gate into the vast corn­ field. She walked between the ripen­ ing rows and jerked at thorny vines that snatched at her ankles, she tore away husks and examined the drying ears critically. Old John I. marched beside her, saying nothing. But she could al­ most feel his keen eyes burning into her, she knew what he was thinking because he had told her bluntly not so long ago. That she was a senti­ mental, weak-minded fool! The hotel near Ridley Field was always excitingly full of officers and other uniformed men, and Jill had a new dress of aquamarine faille that brought out all the fruity tints of her hair, and a saucy little hat that did exactly the right things for her eyes. She called the field and left a mes­ sage for Ric as soon as she arrived, and presently he telephoned her, his voice sounding just a trifle impa­ tient. “Hello, Jill. I wasn’t expecting you down. Mother with you?" “No, Dooley didn’t come. How are you? Can you get off to have dinner with me tonight, Ric?” Ric hesitated for a breath. “Not sure,” he said then. “They’ve been mighty tight with passes lately. I’ll see what I can do and call you later.” “I thought you always had a B pass into town.” "They’ve canceled a lot of passes in our squadron. I might be able to wangle one. Stick around the telephone, and I’ll let you know.” “Tell them your only sister came miles to have a look at you. You aren’t being shipped out, are you, Ric?” “No orders yet. Nothing but ru­ mors. Mother all right?” “Oh, yes, everything is fine. Try to get in, will you? I came a long way to see you.” “I’ll do my best, Jill, but this is the army, you know.” Jill hung up with some irritation. Now she must wait till she heard from Ric before she called Spang. She tried to summon a gay assur­ ance as she made herself pretty be­ fore the mirror, but her heart was shivering and she decided that if Spang brushed her off casually this time she would go back to the farm and devote herself to pigs for­ever. An hour passed before Ric tele­ phoned again.“Sorry, Jill, no soap. Tough luok for both of us.” “Could you see me at the gate after five, if I came out in a taxi, Ric?” “Can’t even do that. I’m stuck on a detail tonight. Sorry I didn’t know you were coming down, or I would have tried to make a swap of some kind. Let me know a week in advance next time, will you? And give Mother my love. I’ll try to- write next week. Been busy as the devil.” “All right, Ric. Sorry. Good-by.” Probably he had had his pass can­ celed for some reason that he didn’t want to tell her. But now Ric was definitely out of it, and she was free to spend the week-end as she pleased. So she put in another call for the field and asked to speak to Lieutenant Spencer Gordon, only to be told that the lieutenant had .signed off the post and gone to town. Well, if he was in town there was a chance that she might meet him, so she touched up her make-up and gave her hat the right tilt and went downstairs. For all her reckless re­marks to her mother, she had al­ ways despised girls who ran after men and were easy to get and therefore vulnerable, but this was different. She wasn’t going to hurl herself at Spang’s head. She was going to be lightly indifferent, though heaven knew it wouldn’t be easy, keeping a cool head while her heart was burning like a mad bon­ fire! Spang was nowhere about when she went down, but she knew that this small and continually crowded hotel was the town rendezvous for all the officers and men at the field. So she went into the dining-room and took a long time ordering her dinner, not looking around, ignoring the groups of jaunty lads in khaki who turned on her bright, direct glances. If Spang came into the room she would know it. Something acute within her, tuned to response, would know when he was near. She was so sure of this that she ate very slowly, buying an evening paper from a soiled little boy, studying the pages with exaggerated interest betwexen sips of the slightly warm tomato juice they brought her. So she was startled an hour lat­ er when, the dinner having dragged itself out through three cigarettes, she rose at last to go, and there was Spang sitting near the door with two other officers. They were finishing plates of apple pie. Second Meeting With Spang Spang jumped to his feet as she approached, and the other men got up, too. “Why hello, Jill!” he cried. “I didn’t see you in here. May I pre­ sent Lieutenant Crawford and Lieu­ tenant Stark? Miss McFarlane.” The two young men bowed, and Spang pulled out a chair. “Sit down and have something more with us, Jill. When did you come down? Mrs. McFarlane with you?” “No, I came alone.” Jill dropped into a chair, leaned her chin on her palms, smiled at the three of them impartially. “I came, down to see Ric—my brother,” she explained to the two strangers, “but it seems he’s forfeited his pass or something, and I was just making up my mind whether the bus or train would be the most hectic way to get home. So nice to see you again, Spang.” “You mean you were going home without even letting me ;knowT" Spang demanded, scowling at Her. “I did telephone.” Jill kept her touch light. “But you’d left the post, and it didn’t occur to me I’d meet you here.” (TO BE CONTINUED) Soybeans W ill Hold Own if Given Chance Industry M aking R eal D em ands for Big Crop Since America's pioneer soybean processing plant began operations in 1922, soybeans have become a by­ word in agriculture and industry, ranking as the nation’s fourth larg­ est cash farm crop.Soybeans, when processed, enter largely into three fields of uses— farm, home and industry.

They know soybeans, also, as a superlative source of protein concentrates for use in livestock and poultry rations. Products made from soybeans go into hundreds of food items. Soy­ bean oil is used in production of about 50 per cent of all shortenings. More than 40 per cent of all mar­ garines are made from soybean oil. The soybean ' oil produced from nearly 1,500,000 acres is used | in making margarines. - One of the subsidiary uses for soy­ beans is the field of medicine, where soybean oil is used as a carrieri in capsule-packaging of vitamins. The health-giving value of soy­ beans long has been recognized |by the farmers of health foods. These things are secondary to the farmpr. Yield and profit'per acre and usej of soybean oilmeal as a feed have been the farmer’s first consideration. • If the production of soybean is to con­ tinue to increase, all uses of soy­ beans must be developed and ex­ panded. SHORTCHANGE THE SOIL The benefits of clover depend on how much nitrogen and orgapic matter it produces, and how much of those materials is returned to the soil as clover or as manure. Wnen sweet clover is out in the fall and removed from the field the resulting loss in nitrogen and organic matter reduces the yields of crops following in the rotation. When clover is not cut, those yields increase.

In a three- year rotation of corn, oats and wheat, sweet clover was seeded in the wheat and plowed under for corn the next spring. On one plot the stubble sweet clover was cut in the fall and removed. On another plot the sweet clover was left un­ cut. Both plots were plowed the fol­ lowing spring. The effect on yields of corn, oats and wheat following on each plot is summarized above.

Celebrated Nude Statue Acclaimed Even by Clergy One of the most sensational works of art was the Greek Slave, a life-sized white marble statue of a nude woman, produced by Hiram Powers, American sculptor, in 1843, says Collier’s. Although prudery was still rampant, the statue was widely acclaimed, even by the clergy. It was featured at a London ex­ position in 1851, was admired by Quehn Victoria, celebrated in a sonnet by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, and again featured at a world’s fair in New York City in 1853. Once it was taken on an exhibi­ tion tour of the United States and grossed in admissions over $23,500.

C. Vet Cooperative Provides H o m es a t R ea so n a b le C ost By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator. WNU Service, 1616 Eye Street, N. W., Washington, D. C. (This is the fifth of a series describing bow American ingenuity is helping to 'solve one of Americas biggest problems— the GJ.’s No. I headache—the housing shortage.) WASHINGTON.—As congress pre­ pares for the home stretch, some veterans’ organizations are promis­ ing that lifting the rent and con­ struction controls will start such a rash of construction that everybody’s ,housing problem will be solved, Oth* ers say that would be the knell to any kind of a veterans’ housing pro­ gram. Rep. Jesse Wolcott of Michigan, who wrote the bill modifying restric­ tions passed by the house, told me he believed that the veterans wanted not pri- orities, but houses. His bill, he thinks, wiU make the latter possible. Oppo­ nents claim the opposite — that two and a half billion dollars worth of building applications for Baukhaee higher priced construction has been built up as a backlog. With re­ strictions off, opponents say chances for cheap house-building will go with the wind. At this writing, the sen­ ate has not yet said its say. Meanwhile, some veterans are getting houses on their own. Drawing for Homes Climaxes Project For example, a few weeks ago in Albuquerque, N. M., a man put his hand into a hat and pulled out a house. It happened on a bright sun­ ny Sunday, when the New Mexico Housing Cooperative association held a drawing for the first house completed under its new building program. There were 58 members of the housing association who had a chance to move into that first house —the 58 people who were paid-up members. They gathered on the sandy lot where the house stands. There were more than 200 persons, counting sweethearts, wives, kids and friends, attending the drawing. The lot is on Arvada avenue in northeast Albuquerque. You can see the desert from there and the purple mountains rising in the distance. The house is a single- story bungalow of Spanish style with a low-pitched roof like so many of the homes you see in the Southwest. It is made of concrete block, cov­ ered with white stucco. The drawing was a gala affair. The people, dressed In their Snnday best, perched on the piles of lumber or sat on the hoods of automobiles to watch the association’s president, M. E. Holly, place the 58 slips of paper in his hat. Assistant City . Manager Arthur Staton drew the first name — Duward E. Lee. Hitit wit ittw a*1 * (I (onjisklatm, IjfMtiJMl it first man to put up his money to buy stock when the association was or­ ganized. Real poetic justice that he should get the first house. The drawing continued. All 57 remaining numbers were drawn. The name drawn second was to get the second house completed, to the third name drawn went the third house, and so on. Soon each association member would have a house similar to the Lee’s—a comfortable five-room bun­ galow with hardwood floors, steel casement windows and an attached garage. Lee said he couldn’t possible have bought the place if it hadn’t been for the co-op. It cost him $6,350, complete with lot. M C oooer ative association developed from the idea of Veteran Paul Robinson, a tall rawboned engineering graduate of Remember York? L. L. Coryell of Lincoln, Neb., couldn’t believe a two-bedroom bungalow could be provided for veterans for only $5,250. To him goes a copy of the third story in this series—how they did it in York, Pa. the Colorado School of Mines. When Robinson returned from a several- year tour of duty with the navy, he couldn’t find a home in Albuquer­ que. Finally he bought a lot, designed and personally supervised construc­ tion of a two-bedroom house. When he had finished, he found he had spent $4,300 (making allowance for a salary for himself) for a house that compared favorably with what was costing other Albuqerque vet­ erans about $7,000 in the open mar­ ket. Robinson thought a veterans’ co- ODerative through which men could build houses for themselves might solve the problem for other veter­ ans. He took this idea to Max Kas- lo, who operates the local veterans’ referral center. Robinson • also talked to Virgil Judy, local housing expediter. The idea clicked. Interested vet­ erans got together; drew up a con­ stitution and by-laws; filed papers of incorporation. Community Aids Vef Enterprise As word got around, the Albuquer­ que community pitched in to help. A local architect donated his serv­ ices on the first house and pledged to provide blueprints, floor plans, et cetera at special rates for subse­quent houses. 'A concrete block manufacturer furnished the blocks for one dwell­ ing ; a landscaping firm offered to do the landscaping without charge; on awning company contributed the awnings. Other business firms wished the association well; promised to sell it materials at reduced prices. But the . contributions and reduced prices don’t apply Theyareto be prorated among all houses, will benefit from the savings, So far the association has the sec­ ond and third houses almost com­ pleted; the fourth about half-fin­ished. Membership has swelled to 75, and because the association feels that a new house in Albuquerque means a vacant house for rent or sale eventually, the membership isn’t limited to just veterans. Association operations are flexible. A person may become a member by buying one share of stock for $100. (This is credited toward his house.) He may buy more than one share of stock if he wishes, although he is not permitted more than one vote. Each member buys his own lot and has the privilege of selecting the design of his own house. How­ ever, the house cannot be any big­ ger than 1,200 square feet (around average size), and construction must meet FHA standards and building code requirements. Members can have the co-op build for them, or they may merely purchase the ma­ terials through the organization. AU labor is paid for, but members can reduce the cost of their houses by working on tbeir own or other bouses under construction. If a plumber who is working fuU time on other jobs spends Saturdays doing plumbing work on one of the cooper­ ative houses, he will be given credit at the standard plumbers’ pay for the hours he works. Quite a few mem­ bers have done this, but most of them are men with office jobs, anxious to pitch in and get the houses built. When they work on the project, they are assigned as laborers and receive credit at laborers’ pay. There are a few unaccustomed blisters and cal­ louses, but they enjoy the novelty, and houses are going up fast. / if I I I M. E. Holly, president of the inm ii, k, I, u n i ft- operative association, reads the name of the lucky veteran who will occupy the Ihst house con­ structed by the organization. TtYBOYS1 OP THE FUTURE . . . These Philadelphia youngsters listen avidly as Victor J.

Although he opposed the wishes of organized labor and overrode an appeal for a veto by Secretary of Labor Schwellenbach, the President emphasized that he was certain that it was not the intent of congress to nullify past gains made by labor. Explaining his reasons for sign­ ing the bill, he said, “Businessmen will be able to plan with assurance for fuU production and price reduc­ tions. This will be of real value to labor and management in a con­ tinued high level of employment.” At the same time he repeated his plea to business for lower prices and requested congress to take im­ mediate steps to increase the statu­ tory minimum wage from 40 to at least 65 cents an hour. T O O M U C H SM O K E: Can’t See Stars The nation’s capital city is getting just too smoky, dusty and crowded for the U. S. naval observatory, which is getting ready to move to a more sylvan neighborhood. Because big cities radiate heat, which is bad for delicate astronomi­ cal instruments, the new location for the world-famous observatory must be no nearer than 25 miles to any metropolitan area. Officials estimate that it will take about eight years to find a site, put up the necessary buildings and install equipment. In addition to providing the na­ tion with the world’s most accurate time checks, the observatory warns the radio industry of sun spot activ­ ity, puts out almanacs, supplies data on tides, phases of the moon IS, FL U S T O P P E R : New Mold Tested A possible cure for influenza may be forthcoming from a newly dis­ covered green and black soil mold, according to an announcement by the Society of American Bacteriolo­gists. So far, although there are pre­ ventive vaccines for Au, no specific cure has been developed. Not yet tested on humans, the mold is said to have shown a curative effect on chicken embryos and mice with in­ fluenza. There is one hitch, however. The mold-bearing earth, according to the two scientists who made the dis- pies which came to them from aU over the world. Just where that particular bit of dirt came from they do not know. Dentists Are in Pain, Too In U m l m i Mb with that u n it Uttle drill and tries to unseat the top of pur skill Chances are his feet hart. And his back aches. And his legs are weary. That, at least, is the contention of Northwestern university school of den- tistry, which is starting to teach its Stu- dent dentists to work sitting dow n- on a specially constructed stool. A standing dentist is of no more ad­ vantage to the patient than a sitting dentist, the school asserts. If dentists can be brought to a sitting position, the university believes, tbeir profes­ sional lives will be extended by five years. FA R M L A N D : Prices GoUp Continuing the steady trend up­ ward begun early in the war, farm real estate prices are nearing a lev­ el double the average for the 1935- 39 period, a survey by the U. S. bureau of agricultural economics shows. During the year ending March I, farm real estate prices rose 12 per cent for the country as a whole. That figure is compared with a 13 per cent rise for the corresponding period in 1946, 11 per cent in 1945 and 15 per cent in 1944. Fifty-six per cent of the recorded sales in the past year were for all cash, it was revealed in the survey. O U TM O D ED D E F E N S E : Rockets Far Ahead Ever-improving rocket weapons already have rendered obsolete the best anti-aircraft guns of the army and navy, Paul W.

Recoid Slaughter A new record for slaughtering of cattle and calves was set during April in aU federally - inspected plants in the country. Hog killings were lower, however, reports the department of agriculture. Cattle killed reached the all-time high during April of 1,203,137 head, compared with 714,860 for the same month a year ago. Calves slaugh­ tered numbered 678,440, compared with 445,049 in April, 1946. . „ . . I” 'I 972 to 3,615,746, and sheep declined from 1,735,882 last April to 1,326,589 this year, lowest since 1939, the de­ partment reports. E V I D E N C E O F L E T U P In co m e a n d O u tp u t H it P e a k WASHINGTON. — Although both the national income and the national turn-out of services and finished goods rose to record peaks during the first three months of the year, there is evidence the boom is slack­ ening, it is pointed out in a com­ merce department report. Since the income and production are measured in terms of money, higher prices and' higher wages were in part responsible for the showing. The “gross national product,” de­ fined as “total output of final goods and services in the economy at mar­ ket prices,” was advanced to an annual rate of $209,000,000,000. This, said the department, ap­ proximated the peak recorded in the second quarter of 1945-when huge quantities of war material were be­ ing produced. Also, it topped the fourth quarter of 1946 by $4,300,000,000, principally because of increased consumer spending, but nevertheless repre­ sented “the smaUest quarterly gain since the bottom of the reconversion decline was reached in the first quar­ter of 1946.” National income reached a record total in the first quarter of this year at the annual rate of $180,500,000,000, an increase of $3,000,000,000 over the fourth quarter of 1946, the depart­ ment said. Income payments to individuals rose by $3,500,000,000 to an annual rate of $177,000,000,000. Wages and salaries accounted for the largest part of the gain, $2,600,000,000 at an annual rate.- Relief and social security pay­ ments and veterans’ allotments also were up by $600,000,000, reversing their downtrend through 1946. Divi­ dends, interest and net rents of land­ lords were down $500,000,000. Net income of business owner-operators was up $200,000,000.

Y.—Old-timers among the ranks of trappers may well take a cue from Huck Spaulding, 18, of South Westerlo, Albany County. Despite his age, Spaulding has snared 185 foxes during the past winter to rank as champion fox trapper of New York for 1946. Second place was taken by Robert H. Hark, 18, of Dalton, with 51 foxes, and third by George Rathbun, also of Dalton, with 28. Both are 4-H club members. Hark also received first prize for the best prepared pelt. Winners receive cash awards and medals in the contest for farm youth sponsored by the State Farm bureau federation and the American Agri­ culturist, farm magazine. Purpose of the contest is not just to bill wild game but to teach farm boys and girls how to control surplus .wildlife in areas where damage is being done to poultry and livestock. Another aim is to encourage practices among rnral youth that recognize wildlife as a farm crop which may add income to the farm business. D. B. Fales, assistant state 4-H club leader, reports that an estimat­ ed 2,300 foxes were taken in the state by the youthful trappers dur­ ing the contest year. Second and third places for the best-prepared pelt were won by Edward Bartlett of rural Lockport and Francis Simpson of rural Port Jervis. This, the second year of the con­ test, far surpassed last year’s when ,,trSas™ * — CHAMPION TRA PPER Outfoxes Foxes an estimated 1,500 foxes were caught, Fales reports. AU three state winners also trapped more than the previous high winner, who ac­ counted for 21 animals. Spaulding, Hark and Rathbun will be guests at special activities on the Cornell campus. S c h o o l C o n s tr u c ts H o u se s T o A s s u r e G e ttin g T e a c h e rs CRAWFORDSVILLE, ARK.— Plagued by a shortage of school teachers resulting from a lack of housing accommodations, Crawfords- ville’s school board finally solved the problem—by building a seven- family apartment. The board received several “no housing-no job” responses to its of­ fers of employment; other teachers resigned because they couldn’t find a place to live. If housing was the trouble, board members decided, then they would build houses. Now, the seven-family apartment, conveniently located across the street from the school, has been opened for inspection of teachers. The apartments are new and mod­ern and, best of all, rentals are as low as $25 a month. The new apartment is a school board job from start to finish. When contractors refused to handle the project except on a cost-plus basis, the board hired its own building su­ pervisor, carpenters, bricklayers, masons and other laborers. The board bought all materials through the school. The finished building cost about $50,000, which board members figure is a saving of about $8,000 to $10,000 over a contractor’s cost. The school board rejected bar­ racks and boarding-house type build­ ings “because congeniality does not seem to exist where a large group of adults is forced to live together.” Money for the project came part­ ly from the revolving loan fund of the Arkansas department of educa­ tion, partly from the school boardcash. Even with low rentals, the for itself in 20 to 25 years. Application on Towel Indicates ‘Clean Job’ CLINTON, IOWA.—To assure of­ ficials that he intends to do “a clean job” if appointed, Ralph M.

Cool Refreshm ent * No summer menu collection is complete without a set of cool drink recipes. These tasty drinks are so handy and convenient to have for both family and com­ pany use, that each summer season should see us well armed with a new set of recipes. After you have decided on the different types of cool refreshments you will serve, see that you have all the in­ gredients on hand so they can be whipped together at a moment’s no­ tice. Cool drinks fall in several cate­gories. You should have several recipes which are really nutritious for the youngsters when they come in from play. Then, too, you should have another set of recipes that are tasty as well as nice to serve guests who may drop in afternoon or eve­ ning. Cool drinks will be more of a suc­ cess if they are served in frosty looking, decorative glasses. And don’t forget the appeal of tinted ice cubes. Use harmless food color, if you like, or freeze bits of cherries, other fruit or mint sprigs with them. For iced tea or coffee, freeze the beverage itself into cubes so that the drink will not be too diluted when served.* * * HERE ARE several nutritious drinks which will make a big hit with the children.

To keep the juice in strawberries, wash the ber­ ries before removing hulls. The best way to wash them is to float them in a pan of water and lift out gently. Repeat the process un­ til the water remains clear. Oranges and lemons will squeeze more easily if they are rolled against the table until they are sfightly soft. If they are too hard to roll, heat them slightly.

Some of it has come from fellow-travelers and other ad­mirers of the Soviet experiment. There have been honest mistakes of American writers who have been unable to penetrate the mysteries behind the iron curtain. Prominent Americans who have “toured" Rus­ sia have too often become dupes of propaganda shows cleverly con­ trived for visiting eyes. Gradually, however, facts are coming to light. Documented and unbiased studies are greatly need­ ed, for they will dispose of many fallacies about the Soviets. Straight facts will set folks right who have accepted such boners as this one: There’s no unemployment#**!! Rus­ sia. It’s quite true, but slave labor­ ers have been estimated at 14.0C0.- 000. You see, unemployment insur­ ance is not even necessary. Facts Talk Loud Such a factual study is the Ml- page book, Communism in Acf' m. prepared under direction of Con­gressman Dirksen of Illinois Printed as a house document by the Legislative Reference Service oi the Library of Congress, the book may be obtained from the U. S. Government Printing Office, Wash­ ington, D. C., for 25 cents. Copies are also distributed free by the American Wage Earners Founda­ tion, Suite 605, 30 North LaSalle Street, Chicago, 111. •Written in a simple, factual style, without the customary slanted or biased approach, the book should interest all Americans who have been confronted with the idea that “the State does the job better.” The facts set forth therein do not call for elaboration or editorial bias. They talk loud enough to make a mighty good advertisement for the Ameri­ can way of life. Special Privileges Russian Communism theoreti­ cally envisions a classless society. On the basis of pay, the difference between the status of the wage earner and the manager is much greater there than in America. The many “special privileges and bo­ nuses” that are distributed to the Soviet managers make this inequal­ ity more striking. The average wage of workers was reported in a pre-war year as approximately $10 to $12.50 a month. What about labor? Yes, in Russia labor is active and organized. Join­ ing unions there is a political and economic necessity. Labor leaders are appointed by the ruling group, and their duties are to speed up production, to keep labor disci­ plined. Wages are not a subject for discussion or negotiation. There is no collective bargaining. Most Rus­ sian labor laws, rulings, and prac­ tices would be called “anti-labor” by American unions, • There are no minorities; there is no deviation from the "party line. The final decision of the people, in elections, must conform to the “party” decision. In the party, reli­ gion is equivalent to "superstitions and unscientific processes.” Profits are a capitalistic phenomenon, and therefore go to the state alone. The vast profits of the Soviet do not go to the workers whose property they are said to be, but to further the expansion of “the Soviet of the future.” Little wonder this study terms .Communism a “theoretical Uncle Sam Says Uncle Sam Says Abraham Lincoln’s birthday should be a reminder to my nieces and nephews that they have the oppor­tunity- to emancipate themselves from future insecurity by buying United States Savings Bonds regu­larly. Every time you buy a bond you’ve added something to the fu­ture you’re creating—a home, an education for your children, a secure old age for yourself. Every signed payroll savings authorization card is a personal emancipation proclama­tion—emancipation from the slavery of a future hand-to-mouth existence. Every regular purchase of a Sav­ings Bond at your bank, post office or where yon work is another step toward future happiness.

This method is the regular buying of United States Savings Bonds. People bay Savings Bonds now on two con­venient plans. If you are on a pay­roll, through the Payroll Savings Plan. If you are a professional man or woman or self-employed, through the Bond-a-Mc-’h Plan at your bank.

And yet sav­ing for the things yon want—a new home, travel or future’security—is easy and effective (imply by allot- ing a portion of pour income either through the payroll savings or by arrangement with your bank for the systematic purchase of United States Savings Bonds. Dollars go, your bonds grow. When you buy Savings Bonds regularly, you are building the nest-egg for whatever you’ve set your heart on. TJ, S.

Davie County farmers read The Re­ cord and trade with merchants who ad- tise in its columns Thin The Vegetable Garden Row —Photo Courtesy Perry-Morae Seed Co, It is next to impossible to sow vegetable seed thinly enough so that the young plants do not crowd each other in the row when they come up. ,lHiis is particu­ larly true when the seeds are very small. Carrot seedlings, for example, should be thinned to stand about an inch apart when two to three inches tall. Otherwise the roots cannot develop as they should. Radishes are of better shape, ‘ too, if the plants are thinned to stand about an inch apart while still tiny seedlings. Green onions can be thin­ ned by pulling and using the extra spears for the Jable when they come up too quickly. Beet seed should be planted at least I% to 2 inches apart for each little pel­ let usually contains two to four seeds. When the plants are four to five inches tall, every other one can be pulled for greens. If this is done at intervals while tops and roots are small, space will gradually be left for some of the roots to reach good size. Sowing leaf lettuce seed sparsely helps to avoid the extra work of later thinning. Even when the str.nd is fair­ ly thick, instead of-thinring the plants some home gardeners prefsc to cut the larger outer leaves, leaving the inner ones to grow. R you like to use each lettuce plant intact, thin to about two inches apart when small. Then, as they become large enough to use, pull up alternate plants and leave the others to grow. Bush beans should be planted two to four inches apart and just enough seed­ lings removed from the row so that the remaining ones are four to five inches apart. Beans usually produce more abundantly when the plants do .-»ot crowd each other. Turnips usually4 do better and grow more rapidly to table size if given three or four inches in which to spread. It is important that turnips grow to eat­ ing size quickly to avoid being tough and fibrous. Of course the thinnings make delicious greens when young and tender.

When a grocery store goes up in a city, town or community, it is a blessing, as tt famishes as food for oar bodies, and thereby sustains life. When a co’ton mill goes up, or some other manufacturing plant turns out some product that is es­ sential to life, it blesses mankind. But wben a liqnor store eoes up it is a curse. Absolutely. It takes tbe money people need for food and clothing, and with which to meet expenses, and poisons and kills them instead. Alcobol is a deadly poison. As Judge Webb says, “It kills the living and pre­ serves the dead ” Men who erect liquor stores in a town or city certainly don’t do this to bless the people. Never, a thou­ sand times NEVER! Tbey know their dirty business is a curse. AU they care for is the money they get, regardles' of the harm they cause. What do they care for your bus band or wife, your sons or daugh ters? Nothing, just so they get your money. They know wben they erect liquor stores that people are going to buy their poison, drink it, get drunk, curse, disturb, break hearts and break up homes. They know that as men and women drink liqnor they will cause horri­ ble wrecks on our highways, and thus maim, cripple and kill human­ ity. Thev know their liquor will cause crime after crime, and there­ by fill our jail bouses, send people to the chaiugang and penitentiari es. But wbat do they care? AU they want is yo.ir money; and your soal may go to hell so far as they care. Friends, I’m against liqnor one hundred per cent, and that mean’s I’m against every liqnor manufacturing plant and every li­ quor store on the American soil on the face of the earth. How a- bout you? No nation can take tbe food stuff that God provides for our susten­ ance and health, and manufacture it into liquor and beer, which is a curse, and go unpunished. Usn and nations have to reap what they sow, and how awful is tbe harvest that comes from drinking and drunkenness! It is a harvest that has to be reaped, for time and eter nity Why A Depression? There is a popular school of thought which savs that a depres sion following boom times is in evitable, Because everybody is employed, wages and prices are high and pros, perity is present on paper, if not actually, does not mean that a de- pression and “Hard times” are in. evitable. We are not economic experts, but with tbe pent up demand fcr almost everything we see no titces sity of a crash. However, there can and may be a recession in business during a period of readjustment. ( It is generally agreed }rom Pres ident Truman on down that prices are too high, and that prices in some lines where demand is great­ est are far oat of line Some bus. iuess men will no agree that there is a limit to prices the public will pay, and this attitude will be re­ sponsible for the recession in the event it makes its sudden appear ance. Moderate aud reasonable oricc reductions will forestall tbe day when business suddenly awakens to tbe fact that the consumers have called a halt to paying whatever is demanded. A moderate leveling off of prices will make possible a long period of prosoeritv without tbe crash that pessimists say must come -Wilkes Journal. We don't like to make X marks 'after your name. Free Homes For Disabled Veterans Note was mede here some days ago that a new group of disabled veterans was lobbying for free auto­ mobiles to be furnished them at government expenses. It will be recalled that the veteran's admin­ istrator, while Dot altogether uu sympathetic, expressed his opposi­ tion on the ground that there bad to be a halt somewhere in piling benefits upon benefits. He ad­ mitted that the conntry’s debt to them could never be repaid, that not even a house could reimburse them for tbe physical handicaps they acquired iu defense of taeir homeland. So bouse and lot It is now. Sen­ ators Robertson and McCarthy have just introduced a bill providing that the Veterans’ Administration secure land, build specialty design­ ed bouses, and turn the deeds over to qualifying veterans who sustain, ed spine injuries of such severity that they will be doomed to wheel chairs the remainder of theirlives ” A gtand getture indeed. Spon sors of this new governmental es­ timate that there are only about 2 - 300 paralyzed veterans of both world wars who would be entitled to free homes under the terms of the bill. No cost estimate was filed, but Senator McCarthy stated that “the cost of the particular type home needed by a paraplegic is considerably higher than tbat of Ihe average home.” Say thirty million dollaes wouid do the job. With a Federal budget still run ning close to forty billions a year, that would be but a drop from the bncket, a sum taxpayers would hardly miss—if the free housing business stop with this particular group of disabled. But it won’t. As was the case with free automo biles, other groups mill also feel themselves entitled to free bousing and justlv so. The government has no right to play favoritism, providing one group of totally dis­ abled with benefits denied to others whose disabilities are of different nature but are totally disanled just the same; and those partially dis abied will naturally feel tbat they also victims of discrimina;ion if they don’t get the same handouts, so there can be no logical stopping place for tbe pretense that paraly­ tics have to have specially design, ed and constructed housing won’t hold water. There are tens of thousands of civilians doomed to wheel chairs for the ,remainder of their lives, who are living in ordi nary houses built without regard tor their special needs, and they seem so be getting along all right.So if Congress starts giving a way houses, it will have, to count more than 2.300 of them, for it can not Iogieally stop with this one small group of speci I cases.— Statesville Daily.

GRANT, Attorney. An Open Letter Mr. Paul Foster, Sboriff, Mocksville, North Carolina Dear Sheriff:—Yonr record in Davie Countv has so far been very fine. There is no doubt that tbe majority of our yeople appreciate your effort to enforce t^e laws and maintain order as well as to give us a feeling of security. In order to protect the citizens of a community against tbe ravages of serious disease it is sometimes necessarv for the Health OfiScer to call upon local Police Deoartments and County Sheriffs to enforce cer­ tain State laws and local regula­ tions in the interest of the public health and safety. ThereforeI am brineing to your attention to North Carolina Rahies Law enacted 1935 amended 1941 and 1945 with re­ quest thst von give conscientious attention to those paragraphs and sections which outline vour duties. As you know, there has recently been a serious outbreak of rabies among the dogs in our neighboring connty of Forsyth, and in tbe city of Wfnston Salem, where stringent regulations had to be enforced be. fore the disease could be controlled. A record number of human beings were bitten by rabid animals and had to take'the Pasteur treatment and before tjie disease, was corn roll ed a very large number of mad dogs and stray animals had to be shot and destroyed by the Police Department, Rabies, or hydrophobia, is not Such a wide spread disease, bnt we must constantly be on the alert to prevent outbreaks for once the dis­ ease develops there is no cure—it is always ratal. Our best protection against the disease; both in auimals and human beings is the enforcement of tht law. Tbe law aims at controlling the disease among dogs by yearly vaccination, It provides for a spe­ cial officer to do the vaccinations It requires all dog owners to have their dogs vaceinated against rab hies before the first day of July each year. Dog owners who fail to comply with the law are guilty of law violation and subject to a stiff fine. Walter L. Call, who was appoin­ ted by State authorities to vacci­ nate dogs against rabies in this county commenced his work some weeks ago, Announcements have been publicly made and Mr. Call has now almost covered the coun- Many of the dog owners have com plied with the law and their names ha ire been checked off. On tbe oth­ er hand quite a number of Davie County dog owners have ignored the law. A very few have not on Iy ignored the law, but they have ridiculed the effort and by word of mouth have encouraged others to follow them in failing to co-operate These individuals are menacing tbe public health and safety and must be prosecuted. To make sure that every citizen gets a square deal. Mr, Call will make’ a second round to all points scheduled in each township for the purpose of serving those woo miss ed out on the first ronnd. You are earnestly requested to co-operate and carry out tbe provisions of the law governing this subject. In this matter vou have behind you the State authorities, the local law en­ forcement authorities, tbe State and local Hsalth Deoartment and all the law abiding citizens of this county. Vaccination is seldom dangerous to the dog It goes a far way to protecting him against hydropho­ bia, and it goes a far way to pre­ vent a serious diseaae atuotfg the citizens of our community.

Freedom of Religion The Southern Baptists in their meeting in St. Louis, Mo., sooke out in language that ali could un­ derstand in regard to their position on freedom of religion and the prin. ciple of separation ot church and state. They demanded that the United States live up to the princi­ ple. The Baptists were not alone in tbat for the Methodists were just as outspoken as the Baptists and both denominatfons have out-spok­ en and fearless leaders In President Newton; of tbe Southern Baptist Convention and Bishoo Oxham, of the Methodist Church, The reso­ lutions on the part of the church leaders bad,, very little effect upon tbe politicians as was evidenced by the statement of former Governor Stassen, of Minnesota who address. ed the Baptist Convention in St. Lonis. He said that he did not agree with the Baptist people in those iesolutions Mr. Stassen wants to he President of the United States and has a right to believe that he will win more votes by talc ing a stand for tbe Catholics than by going along with his Baptist brethren. There is a definite Ca thoiic vote inthi. country but there is no such thiug as a Baptist vote, Mr. Stassen knows that full well and knows that the Catholics have so entrenched themselves in the political life of this country that they practically bold the balace of power in every national election, Mr, Stassen made himself perfectly available to the Catholics and from a political point of view Baptists s'tnolv do not count and there, my brethren, is the situation Charity And Children.

The work last year was very satis, factory. No rabies occurred in Da vie County. While it was never reported offi ciallp, I have from e reliable source that a Forsyth County dog was brought into Davie County a few weeks ago because the owner wish, ed to escape the stringent rules on dogs in bis own community. This dog was mad. It bit several other animate including at least five per. sons, who had to receive tbe Pas. teur treatment. I mention this case bocause it is something we must guard against in the future. Some time ago it was pubiicly fequestod tbat the Health Department be promptly notified iu the case ot an­ imal bites The purpose of this request was to give tbe Healtn .De- partment’an opportunity to iuvesti. gate. It has the means of secur ing examinations to determine asbether rabies is present in sick or killed animals. It has the means of co ordinating the various con­ trol efforts. It can always warn tbe public when rabid animals are on the rampage. Yours trulv, ALFRED MORDECAI, Qoqnty Health Officer. Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambler. 000000 .

Proper F ly Control Elim inates D isea se Proper Equipment and Application Important Many diseases and cases of con­ tamination are traceable to flies. Spraying with DDT and other new chemicals presents the first truly ef­ fective means of controlling flies. DDT is amazingly effective for several weeks. Flies landing on treated surfaces die in a few min­ utes from a condition similar to de­ lirium tremens. The main steps to a good fly control program are: First: Clean up the breeding places where flies lay their eggs. Second: Spray DDT on all sur­ faces where flies gather. For this work a sprayer developing some pressure is needed. A garden type compressed air or larger sprayer will do the job efficiently. Around the home, spray the doors, windows, the back porch, out buildings, et cetera. On the farm, the ceilings r Compressed air sprayer devel­ ops 40 pounds pressure for barn and livestock spraying. and walls of barns, poultry houses and hog houses should be sprayed. Two or three sprayings a year will provide excellent control. DDT is positive but slow in its action. Dairymen still are using hand sprayers for a quick knock­ down of visiting flies at milking time. The hand sprayers also are conven­ ient for spraying again those areas exposed to rain, where DDT may be washed off. The types of sprayers for fly con­ trol include: (I) hand atomizers; (2) hand pump action — knapsack, wheelbarrow, and bucket pump sprayers; (3) compressed air—usual­ ly 2 to 4 gallons in size; (4) engine- operated sprayers from % to Vk H.P. up in size. At least one of each type should be available. Flavor and Value of Milk Can Be Retained In recent months small unit pas­ teurizers have been placed on the market. Tests con­ ducted by state ex­ periment stations and research or­ ganizations have proven that the taste, quality or value of milk pas­ teurized by these units is not dimin­ ished—but on the other hand the health factors are greatly increased. There is a serious milk-borne dis­ ease danger of using raw milk. This may be entirely eliminated. With many cities, counties and districts demanding pasteurization of milk to be sold, the small units will prove of value to owners of a small num­ ber of cows who desire to retail their excess milk supply. The only cer­ tain way to avoid disease from milk is to heat it sufficiently to kill all disease-producing bacteria—this can only be done properly by pasteuriza. tion. Boiling will kill bacteria. ' sr Hogs Much time can be saved in herd­ ing, moving or catching hogs by use of the easily constructed hurdle shown above. Nof Possible to Make Hay While Sun Shines Too often rain comes before the hay can be field cured or placed -in the barn. Barn-drying is a system designed to overcome the weather hazard in making hay. New York station specialists point out that it is possible to produce high quality hay with barn dryers when they are used wisely. Unless drying can be accomplished in 7 to IO days, moldy tiay or a product onoff feed­ ing value may result. THE MASTER CARVER . . . The elements, at work since the beginning of time, have carved this gigantic trough in the Grand Canyon of Colorado river. One of nature’s most spectacular sights, the canyon is 297 miles in length, a mile deep and at some places IS miles wide. NATURE'S MASTERPIECES E r o s io n C a rv e s S tu p e n d o u s S p e c ta c le s in T h r e e C a n y o n s W N V features. From the beginning of time, wind and water have combined to carve the earth’s surface in a small section of northern Arizona and southern Utah into three of the most stupendous spectacles in the world, the Grand Canyon of Colorado river, Zion canyon of Virgin river and the great horseshoe-shaped amphitheater known as Bryce canyon. Each area in this scenic triumvirate is now a national park and as such belongs to the people of the United States. These parks may be counted among the<s>— National Parks incomparable jewels in the national treasure—to be enjoyed by us today and to be held in trust for the benefit of generations of Americans yet to come. Grand Canyon National park in northern Arizona is the largest of th e three parks, con­ taining 645,- 000 acres. Zion National park in Utah is second in size with 94,- 000 acres and Bryce Canyon Nation­ al park, also in Utah, is the smallest with 36,000 acres. In 1946 more than 825,000 people visited these parks. Grand canyon is 297 miles in length, a mile deep and in some places 18 miles wide. Mighty moun­ tains, rising thousands of feet from the depths of the gorge, are dwarfed by the enormous proportions of this titanic trough. From the rim of the canyon the visitor may look down on the summits of these moun­ tains. Wave on wave they reach to the horizon, garnet, purple, topaz, like a stormy sea on fire. And a thousand feet down real storm clouds may lash these mountains, lightning may sparkle and thunder may reverberate from wall to wall, while above the sun shines in a cloudless sky.* * * BRYCE CANYON presents a sharp contrast to Grand canyon. Here the visitor enters a fairyland of pink, white, red and lemon yel­ low, a land of minarets and towers, land of castles and cathedral domes, a dreamland of goblins and grotesque shapes. There are 30 miles of pink cliffs carfed and sculp­ tured. The main amphitheater, three miles long and about two miles wide, is crammed with fantastic fig­ ures and kaleidoscopic color. Trails lead to such places as Sunrise Point, Fairy Castle, Queens Garden, Peek-a-boo Canyon, and Silent City. ♦ » « AGAIN IN SHARP contrast, Zion canyon is like a vast cathedral. The dome of heaven seems to rest on its sheer stone walls. Considered by many people the most satisfying of all national parks, Zion, by the splendor of its scene, invariably commands silence from all who en­ ter. Approaching by Mount Car­ mel highway, the first view is from the wall of the canyon through win­ dows in the highway tunnel. From the south the visitor enters along the course of Virgin river passing between the huge rock masses called the East and the West Temples. Once inside these gates, the traveler stands in a level valley enclosed by almost perpendicu­ lar walls which rise more than half a mile above him. Side canyons cut these walls into tre­ mendous blocks, which rise from a blood red base, changing to reddish brown and, two thirds up, to gleaming white, tinted with buffs, grays and reds. As the visitor proceeds along this monumental valley he passes the Sentinel, the Mountain of the Sun, the Court of the Patriarchs, the Great White Throne, Angels Land- ing, the Weeping Rock and finally the Temple of Sinawa. This mystical amphitheater is completely surrounded by stone rock walls. The level floor is green with trees and in early summer bright with blossoms. In the center of the circle stand two large stone pillars. The larger one is called the altar and the smaller one is known as the pulpit. The visitor instinctively listens for the sermon and waits for the sacrifice. The ear­ ly pioneers, deeply religious Mor­ mons, were so impressed by the solemnity of the scene that they named the canyon "Little Zion.”• * * THESE THREE national parks are readily accessible by paved highways, but the roads on the north side of Grand canyon are closed by snow from October 15 to May 15. Accommodations of all types, in­ cluding hotels, lodges, cabin camps and cafeterias, are found on the south rim of Grand canyon. Lodges and cabin camps also are available at the north rim and in both Zion and Bryce. Free campsites for motorists bringing their own equip­ ment are maintained in all of the parks by National Park service. Excellent paved highways within the parks make it possible for all travelers, without physical exertion, to see many of. the principal won­ ders of each park. For hardier per­ sons, there are miles of foot trails, and the adventurously inclined may explore more distantly on horse­ back. It is possible to cross on foot, by mule or horse from the south rim to the north rim of Grand canyon, but this trip and all trips down into the canyon should be tak­ en only by persons in excellent phys­ ical condition. In each park, ranger-naturalists give frequent talks, and in the eve­ nings they conduct entertaining pro­ grams around the campfires. m VERITABLE FAIRYLAND . . . Fantastic figures and kaleidoscop­ ic color prevail in Bryce Canyon National park in Utah. O ld F o rt o f 'L ost C olonists' U n e a rth e d WASHINGTON. — Recent archeo­ logical excavations at the tradi­ tional site of the fort of Sir Walter Raleigh’s “lost colonists” within Fort Raleigh national historic site on Roanoke island off the North Carolina coast have revealed posi­ tive evidence of an old earthen fortification which may be the one constructed by Raleigh’s colonists, according to Newton B. Drury, di- (ICtor Ol M a l ParK service, Three exploratory trenches have been excavated at the fort site. Visi­ ble in each trench was the profile of •the ditch or moat of the fort, ap­ proximately 10 feet broad and 5% feet deep. The depth and charac­ ter of the fill indicate that the fort is indubitably of great age, in con­ trast to the remains of Civil war forts of earthen construction dis­ covered elsewhere on Roanoke is­ land, Army Must Develop Arctic Equipment Test of Maneuvers in Alaska Demonstrate Need. WASHINGTON.—The war depart­ ment said that Alaska test maneu­ vers had proved the army must de­ velop new equipment if it expects to be an efficient fighting force in frigid climates. Summarizing findings of task forces “Williwaw” and “Frigid,” whicn will return soon from bases on Adak and at Fairbanks, the de­ partment said the equipment in­ cluded A light, portable shelter sturdy enough to stand heavy rain, fine snow and hurricane winds. A motor oil which will not freeze at temperatures lower than 30 be­low zero. Clothing which is warm without being too bulky to permit freedom of movement. A tundra and mountain crossing vehicle which can carry personnel and supplies and is sturdy enough to need little maintenance.A self-heating can for rations. A different kind of tank from those used in temperate zones. The current Armored Cavalry Journal quotes Col. Paul V. Kane, who commanded “Frigid,” as say­ ing flatly that tanks are "thoroughly impractical in the arctic.” Critics of such armor say tanks quickly bog down in the soft Aleu­ tian tundra, the rough Alaska ter­ rain immobilizes them, the lubri­cants freeze and 60 degrees below zero seems to be the breaking point for their crews. The account said Kane estimated a man lost his efficiency at the rate of 2 per cent for every degree under zero. One officer spent six hours in a tank at subzero temperatures and reported his efficiency at the end of the period as nil. Maj. Myron Johnson, tank test of­ ficer of “Frigid,” and Capt. George J. Skeets, commanding Company B of the 66th tank battalion, disagreed with Colonel Kane. They said the present tank could be modified to sittmount Arctic conditions. United States Returns Loot Taken by Germans FRANKFURT, GERMANY— The United States shipped 25 mil­ lion dollars worth of Nazi-hoarded Hungarian silver and art objects back to Budapest in a new ges- tur^'of friendship. One hundred and 20 tons of sil­ ver-needed by Hungary to keep her economy on a sound basis— and 370 priceless cultural pieces were returned to the former enemy country under an agree­ ment between the U. S. state de­ partment and a Hungarian eco­ nomic mission. The precious cargo was en route to Hungary’s capital city aboard a heavily armed U. S. army train, which reached Vien­ na after passing in almost total military secrecy across Germany and Austria. Dutch Family of 13 Flies To a New Home and Life NEW YORK—The 13 Van der Dussens of Rotterdam, Netherlands, said to be the largest family to come to the United States by air, arrived at La Guardia field en route to California, where they will make their home. “We want to find a good future for our children here,” Mrs. Sy- brand Van der Dussen said. “We intend to become American citi­ zens.” Mrs. Van der Dussen and her husband decided shortly after the liberation of Holland that they wished to bring their family of 11 children to America, because they felt they would have a better chance here. They spent about $5,000 on the trip. The children range in age from six months to 17 years. Mrs. Van der Dussen, who spoke through an interpreter, said the family would join her husband’s brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Gerand Vanderham, at Bell­ flower, near Los Angeles, where they would operate a dairy farm. Van der Dussen was a dairy farm­ er in Holland. The Vanderhams came to the United States 26 years ago.

W., Washington, D. C. ' WASHINGTON.—It was one of ■those strange, foggy nights that sometimes descend over the east­ ern part of America—not like a LonrtDn smoky fog, nor the clean white stuff that rolls in like giant breakers so artistically against Yer- ba Buena in San Francisco' bay, nor yet like the mists on the rice- fields, nor the clammy North Atlan­ tic "weather” that drips over crow’s-nest and quarterdeck, turn­ ing ship and sky into cold, wet drizzling steel. The point is that I was stranded in York, Pa., (mentioned recently . in these columns E i for its hospitality} J *, - to veterans). It . D r . was simply hope- less to try to inch S along through the condensed milk that enveloped us. I knew there was a* genial hos­ telry there, so we edged up to it, were decanted and, sure enough, m et ho le ss a person than Jun­ ius Wood, lolling in the lounge. Of course, you are likely to meet Junius Wood anywhere, on an atoll in the Pacific, tapping his pipe into the crater of Mount Vesuvius, ford­ ing a fjord in a borrowed car. lost in Grand Central or sipping vodka in the Kremlin. So it wasn’t strange to And him in York, Pa. As I write these lines, I have just left Mr. Wood (at the National Press club this time). He informed me that some of the former "students about whom he writes in the article quoted below testified recently be­ fore a congressional committee. Rep. Karl Mundt of South Dakota read Wood’s article into the. Con­ gressional Record, thus making it a “public document.” (Today a lady who signs herself “Just Mary” writes me saying that I should pretend I’m a "nice ole Beagle hound” and "keep that beezer” of mine “pointed down the middle of the road.” She claims. I have the "darndest habit “schroochin’ over to the right.” I hope the following won’t hurt her feelings.) Here are the quotes from tjie Wood story, which originally ap­ peared in the April issue of “Na­ tion’s Business” under the title of "Trained to Raise Hell in America.” Background I know was gathered by Wood while he was reporting from Russia and I was bending over a copy desk in the old Chicago Daily News office whither Junius directed his daily dispatches: “Attention, ambitions young men and women,” says Wood. “A well-established and liberal- ally endowed nniversity offers yon free courses in factory sab­ otage, bomb making, kidnaping, train wrecking, bank robbery, fomenting armed mutiny—and other techniques of violence and treason. Scholarships cover all expenses, including recreation the annual vacations at summer resorts. This university is the West Point of world revolution— 11 it * Of Moscow. This university teaches the youth of other lands to go back home and wreck their countries. Over the years it has trained and returned to the United States an estimated 800 disloyal Americans. They are the leaven of some 50,000 Com­ munists and 100,000 pinkos in our land; they are the high of­ ficers of a secret army now be­ ing drilled to overthrow our gov­ ernment and social order.” Wood describes the super-secret surroundings of the school, and what happens to Russians who get curious about it (Siberia or the firing squad) and goes on to describe the hush- hush atmosphere into which a stu­ dent is inducted: “With matriculation, each student takes a revolutionary or party name by which he wiU be known in Com­ munist circles and outside activities. Mark Aldanov in ‘The Fifth Seal’ tells of a party worker who had so many aliases he forgot his bap­tismal name.” According to Wood, the school has a three-year course devoted pri­ marily to intensive indoctrination. But there are also courses in labor activities, party organization, and propaganda, as well as military tac­ tics and weapons. When the student returns to his own country, says Wood, “he must join trade unions or liberal societies —attend all meetings, pay dues promptly, be eager for work, unite others by party discipline until the organization is blindly following the party line in which he (the student) is so well grounded.” Wood points out that Moscow does not consider revolution imminent in this country. But he claims they are preparing for the psychological moment . . . “and these peaceful preparations go on for years through capable party members burrowed into trade un­ ions, public offices, the police force, liberal clubs and other sources of information.” When the time comes to attack a city, “the needed knowl­ edge of where to attack to paralyze it will be at hand—even such facts as the knowledge that a watchman has a dog will have been recorded.” "According to the time schedule of the Communists,” says Wood, “a city like Chicago could be captured in less than 48 hours.” Despite these frightening words, Wood says this in con­ clusion: “The Soviet schools for foreigners are not too alarming when they are stripped of mys- , tery. It would be well to know their 800-odd American alumni, also their instructors and what secret plotting is behind the for­ mal handshakes over a confer­ ence table or the clink of cock­ tail glasses at a banquet board. It also will help when they know that we know—an interesting long-range job for our state de- _ partment and FBI.” End of quotation. These words are the author’s and the views ex­ pressed not necessarily those of your columnist. But Jtmius Wood is a source “hitherto reliable” and I of­ fer him for what his report is worth. He assured me today that his sources are “old grads,” not nec­ essarily Leningrad and Stalingrad, but real alumni of this somewhat- W a r - r a v a g e d N a tio n s N e e d F o o d A few weeks ago a physician said that the British people were starv­ ing to death on their present rations. We know what has been happen­ ing these past weeks in Qermany. Other European countries are in no better position, some worse. I have seen what being too hun­ gry does. I have seen it in the Unit­ ed States army, on shipboard and among foreign peoples. It does something to your brain that just can’t be explained in terms of every­ day, easy American language. The American people will do their part, collectively, to help the rest of the world over this ugly gulch, partly because we are decent peo­ ple, partly because we don’t want that “something strange” to hap­ pen to their brains which will-make them the prey of any evil political influence which exists. y The American people, individually, can help in another way. They can send some food to the people whose addresses they know and they can do it efficiently, cheaply, quickly, through an institution called CARE. C-A-R-E stands for Cooperative .. for American Remittances to Eu­ rope.It is a non-partisan, non-profit in­ stitution which .has the blessing of the United States government. Through CARE you can send packages, well packed; containing carefully chosen food of- the kind most needed and other materials of which there is a tragic lack. A $10 food package delivers 40,963 calories. (The minimum ration in Germany is 1,500 calories a day. They aren’t getting that.) A blanket package at the same (price provides two all-wool army * blankets, scissors, needles, thread and two sets of heels and soles for shoes. A new package, same price, de­ livered, contains 17 yards of cotton goods, needles, thread, thinhble, scis­ sors and thread. And how they want cotton goods! Clothes are still not available. Here are the countries to which you can send the cotton package: Aus­ tria, Belgium, Czechoslovakia, Fin­land, France, Greece, Italy, Hun­ gary, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania and Germany (all zones except Russian). The food packages can be sent to all the above, plus England, Wales, ^Scotland and northern Ireland. You’ll help Uncle Sam’s food problem, too, if you send a package to someone whose address you know in these countries—if you CARE. TYRO THESPIANS . . . Roanoke island youngsters, some of whom have never seen a stage play in their young lives, try out for parts in Paul Green’s “The Lost Colony,” an outdoor spectacle staged annually Jn a waterside amphitheater on the North Carolina island. More than 52,000 persons saw tbe symphonic drama last year in its postwar revival. N E W S R E V IE W P o sta l B o o st F o reseen ; E co n o m ists D ecry S lum p POSTAL RATES: May Go Vp A measure embodying the first general revision of postal rates since 1879 which would add about 110 million dollars a year to post office revenues has been introduced in the house of representatives. The bill provides for a 30 per cent increase in parcel post rates and would revise the air mail rate from five to six cents an ounce. In addition, the new plan would add about 30 per cent a year to present scales for second-class mailing of newspapers and periodicals sent out­ side the county in which they are published. Another provision would maintain the current three-cent local and non­ local rate for first class mail beyond the July I deadline when those rates were slated to revert to the former two-cent level. The new rates would go into ef­ fect 60 days after the bill is passed and signed by the President. READIC8 TMENT: No Depression Not a depression but a price “re­ adjustment” is in store for the United States, the federal reserve board has predicted. Reserve board economists ex­ plained that heartening news by pointing out that a downtrend in prices is “necessary, healthy and inevitable.” The inconsistencies in the national economy, which have arisen out of the fact that our econ­ omy is part rigged and part free, will have to be eliminated. For instance: About 14 million or­ ganized workers have derived bene- * 4JOE COLLEGE’ . . .

Twice that many unorgan­ ized workers have not shared to an equal extent in the wage increases. A number of industries, able to control prices, have driven them upward. Others, at the same time, have been held down by govern­ ment controls. The main reason that farm and food product prices soared after the war was that there was little else the consumer could purchase. Now, with production making a come­ back, the previously scarce radios, refrigerators, automobiles and so on are competing for the consum­ er’s money. Federal reserve board economists say that farm prices are expected to stabilize about 25 per cent under the 1946 peaks. They also express confidence that they can put the brakes on any further inflation if congress provides the necessary assistance. G IA N T ’S D E A T H ; End of an Erai{ The battleship Oklahoma, first of the so-called “supe^-dreadnaughts,” might well be recorded in history as an accurate symbol of the era during which it ploughed the seas for the U. S. navy—heroic but futile. In her 31 years of steel-clad exist­ ence she never fired' a shot at an enemy. Based at Berehaven, Ireland, dur­ ing World War I, she saw no action; and on December 7, 1941, five Japa­ nese torpedoes sent the sturdy old ship lunging to the bottom of Pearl Harbor before her crlw could man the guns. Raised to the surface and then abandoned as not* worth salvaging, the Oklahoma was consigned to the scrap heap and taken in tow for the last long voyage across the Pacific. Suddenly, 540 miles northeast of Pearl Harbor, the tragic battleship listed heavily, as if tirfed of war and its aftermath, and slipped into the sea, three miles deep at that point, [(Ifto M W f M m ttie e r a violence that had been her lifespan, E N D T H E W A R : Students Riot Demonstrating violently in open defiance of Chiang Kai-shek’s order to quiet down, thousands of univer­ sity students in several Chinese cit­ ies fortified their demand that the civil war be ended immediately by calling for a general strike. Declaring sternly that the student riots were instigated by Commu­ nists, Chiang said they would be quelled forcibly if necessary. The students reacted with further pa­ rade and violence in Shanghai, Nan­ king and Peiping. About 25,000 students jwere on strike from 16 universities, —:*u their demands including everything from a better system of grading p i pers to higher government livinj al lowances and an end to the war Of E X P O R T S M U S T C O N T IN U E W o r l d F o o d O u tlo o k I s C r itic a l WASHINGTON.—Because of for­ eign crop losses, the world food sit­ uation will remain critical for the 1947-48 crop year, according to a warning issued by the department of agriculture. Although an in­ creased output among the principal producing nations is‘foreseen, this gain will be offset Ijy declines in grain production in nations which normally import part of their food requirements. This shift in the supply picture will mean a “somewhat - greater movement of grains in international trade during the coming year if supplies in importing countries are to be maintained at the relative low levels ef 1946-47,” the office ef for­ eign agricultural relations said. The gloomy picture was pre­ sented as the administration was in the midst of an all-out effort to send additional supplies to both Germany and France to avoid a crisis that could force reduced rations through­ out most of northern Europe. Officials abroad railed at failure of the German government to push properly internal food collection, and charged German producers with hoarding their output. ■. The department sounded one cheerful note ^predicting some in­ crease in sugar, potato, and fats and oils production, but reminded that “the supply of all these com­ modities will continue below pre­ * war.” The same situation was reported for rice, with the surplus producing areas of southeastern Asia still not in full production. - Finance will be a major problem in agricultural trade in 1947-48, tt(e department said. With the tempo­ rary wartime expedients of Iend- lease and United Nations Relief and Rehabilitation administration out of. the picture, the volume of foreign im’ports will depend on the amount of United States funds appropriated for foreign relief, the buying power that importing countries can muster out of the receipts from their own exports, but of gold and dollar re­ serves, and out of loans. - - Jj f i TWO VETERANS TALK . . .

Serve this with cake or cookies. Bridal days are once more with as, and there’s hardly any circle of friends where at least one wed­ ding does not take place. A good friend of the bride usually gives the honored girl a shower, and it is ivith such pleasant doings that we are concerned. Whether it’s a lingerie, kitchen or personal shower, the theme of the party refresh­ ments should be daintiness. If you can carry out the theme with a oen- terpiece of bride and bridegroom, well and good, but it isn’t neces­ sary. Use your daintiest linen and fresh, fragile flowers, and your table is bound to be pretty. Pastel color combinations in table settings and refreshments are high­ ly favored as they carry out the theme of the occasion. Food, how­ ever, need not be elaborate, because the girls probably will be too excit­ ed to eat much. Do, however, make everything delectable, and you will be well rewarded for your efforts. A SIMPLE afternoon or evening party might consist of a light de­ lectable cake and punch as follows: Whipped Cream Angel Food. I cup whipping cream 3 egg whites Vi cup water 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 cups flour IVi cups sugar 3 teaspoons baking powder Vi teaspoon salt Whip cream until stiff; beat whites until stiff and combine care­ fully. Add water, vanilla and dry ingredients, which have been sifted together at least three times. Bake in layers at 3S0 degrees about 30 minutes or until done. Use the fol­ lowing filling: Lemon Filling De Luxe. Vi cup shortening I cup sugar 3 eggs, beaten slightly Grated rind of I lemon 6 tablespoons lemon juice Vs teaspoon salt Place shortening in pan over hot water to soften. Add rem aining ingredients. Cook over simmering water, stirring constantly, until well thickened and of good pil­ ing q u a n tity . Cool before using. Strawberry Punch. (Makes 4 quarts) 1 quart water Vi cup granulated sugar Vi cup corn syrup 2 quarts strawberries 3 cups chilled orange juice 1 cup chilled lemon juice 4 cups ginger ale 2 thinly sliced oranges or limes Combine first three ingredients. Bring to a boil and add the washed, hulled strawberries, and boil,, cov­ ered, for 3 minutes. Remove and strain' through a sieve, without pressing, and chill. Just before serving, combine with remaining in­gredients, using orange slices for LYNN SATS: Make Baking Easy Give your biscuits a rich, brown crust by brushing them with milk or cream before baking. This will prevent your baking them to the drying point by making them brown more readily. To prevent boiled frostings from becoming sugary, add I teaspoon of vinegar or % teaspoon of cream of tartar to the syrup while cooking. Custard pies should be cooled on a wire rack to prevent them from {teaming and becoming soggy.

To save sugar used in icings, sprin­ kle a small amount of sugar on the cake before baking. This, in turn, may be sprinkled with finely shred­ ded nuts or cooonut shreds. Fruit pies as well as berry pies will have better flavor if the juice of half a lemon is sprinkled over the filling before baking. Bread and rolls will be much more quickly made if the yeast in them is doubled. Four teaspoons of vinegar also will help speed the process and keep bread better dur­ ing the summer months. When Richard McFarlane disappeared during World War I, he left his wile, Julia, to raise their two children with the aid of her (ather-in-law, John I.

Ric tells her he is on duty and unable to see her. However, she meets Spang again U the Officers’ club. CHAPTER VII “On Saturday night you can see «very officer in this place, except the poor guys who get stuck with duty. Every single one, anyway,” Lieuten­ ant Stark said, “and about half the !tarried men.” “Even Old Cyanide,” Lieuten­ ant Crawford put in. “He’s over there by the window, polluting the atmosphere.” Jill followed the movement of Spang’s eyes and saw a tall captain sitting alone. He had reddish hair, turning gray, a leathery skin, cold blue eyes and a grim mouth under a stiff, clipped mustache. “Go easy, Joe, the enemy is Iis- teliing,” Stark warned. “You mean that captain? Who is he?” JiU asked. “His name is Mackey,” Stark said in a low voice. “The boys call him Old Cyanide,” Spang explained, “because he has a corrosive tongue and you need a gas-mask when he turns loose a barrage of language on you.” “Old army man,” supplied Craw­ ford. “Efficient as hell and just as popular. He was a major before 3Pearl Harbor, over in the Islands, end they busted him after Decem­ ber seventh. Naturally he’s sore, and he takes it out on anybody who gets within ten feet of him.” “He looks lonely,” Jill said. “He seems to have collected a few dec­orations.” “Battle stuff,” Spang said. “Last war.” “He’d be handsome if he didn’t have such a bitter face,” Jill mused. “He does have a very smart mili­ tary air.” The three young men simultane­ ously snapped their shoulders back and straightened their ties, then laughed together. “Get hold of yourself, Joe, she wastt’t even looking at you.” "Suppose I have to break my neck now to get to be a captain.” They were nice lads, with their sunburned good-natured faces and the stark, white breadth of fore­ head that marked the line of their garrison caps. Jill laughed with them, waited while they wrangled amiably over the check. Spahg said, “Take off, you fel­ lows. I’ve got a date with Jill. You really didn’t want to catch that bus, did you, Jill?” “It isn’t terribly important,” she admitted, smiling at him. You love me, Spang—you know you love me. It show* in your eyes. It’s in your voice. Stark and Crawiord said, “Good night, Miss McFarlane,” as they all went out into the warm, star-span­ gled night. Jill Meets Mrs. Calvert “That captain reminds me of some one,” she said to Spang, “but I can’t seem to remember who it is.” “Heydrich or Himmler, maybe.” “Oh, no, no one like that. He hasn’t a vicious" face. He looked a bit—pathetic, to me.” “You’re a soft-hearted girl. Old Cyanide’s as tough as they make ’em, and the army makes ’em plen­ ty tough. He thinks all the young officers are upstarts and ninety-day wonders, and he resented being sent here, I’ve been told.” “I still think there are chinks in his steel armor. Didn’t you have another engagement, Spang? Don’t let me upset your plans.” ‘1I hadn’t any plans, except to kill another Saturday night. And even if I had had, they’d be unimportant now that you’re here.” So she glowed again, and the world was a lovely place, even with the sodden cloud of war hanging over it and dimming all the fu­ ture. She would not let it dim the present. She said, “Shall we just walk around and talk* or would you like to do something else?” “There’s the officer’s club. But it’s mostly a big poker game on Saturday nights. I know a little spot out this way where the floor is pretty good. Like dancing?” “Oh, I’d love dancing.” The place, neon-lighted, hid its daytime dinginess under a glitter of gaiely. “Let’s try the corners,” Spang said, slipping his arm around her, “More breathing space there.” The dancing did not matter. Noth­ ing mattered except that Spang’s arm was around her, the: silver wings on his breast close to her cheek, her hand curled in his big palm. She could hear her own heart beating, lilting happily, because she was so terribly in love. Spang pushed her big hat back. “Can’t see your eyes.” His own *were deep and warm and smiling at her. His head bent close. Was he keeping his feelings stern­ ly controlled because, as Julia had said, he had nothing to offer a wom­ an but uncertainty or dread or grief? Couldn’t he see that nothing mattered, not the future, for what was a future if you had a -IoveJy present to remember when it came? Now she had to keep her eyes cool because Spang was looking into them, but what if all, the aching hunger in her heart welled up into them, naive and naked and defense­ less, for him to see? So she said, quickly, “It’s so warm in here I’m practically swooning. Let’s get something cool to drink, shall we?” “I doubt if we can find a table. But we can try.” Spang led her “There was a girl with hair like yours, and her name was Julia, too,” he said. back into the dim room where heads leaned close in every space. She clutched his arm suddenly. There, in a booth,. his dark hand­ some head leaned close to a curled and silvered blonde, was Ric! Spang had seen him, too. His face darkened, and he took her arm to lead her past, but Jill tingled and stiffened with sudden anger. She marched directly up to the startled pair, and instantly Ric leaped up and stood stiffly, until Spang made a little gesture and muttered some­ thing. The blonde woman—she wasn’t a girl, Jill saw — lifted carefully arched eyebrows. “How do you do, Lieutenant?” she said, smoothly. Ric made the introductions awk­ wardly. “My sister, Julia McFar­ lane, Mrs. Calvert. And may I pre­ sent Lieutenant Gordon?” Jill nodded briefly, her throat tight and aching, as she fought back the young rage with which she had blasted her brother so many times.“Nice you could get a pass, Ric,” she said coldly, “even if you didn’t take the trouble to let me know.” “You were out,” Ric fumbled, “I thought perhaps you’d gone home.” “I haven’t gone home. I’ll be here in the morning, and I’ll expect to see you then.” “I don’t know about tomorrow. I might be on duty.” Ric was angry now, too. “At least you’ll telephone me,” Jill said severely. “Nice to have seen you, Mrs. Calvert.” A Fulfillment Of a Dream Spang made a curt little bow, and they walked away. Jill was trem­ bling a little, troubled by this silly fury that had shaken her. “He lied to me,” she said, when they were out in the night again. “But why do I care? Why should it matter to me if he preferred be­ ing with that woman instead of me? I suppose it’s because I hate seeing some one who belongs to me doing a cheap, dishonest trick. Spang, you didn’t tell me she was pretty. It’s the same one, isn’t it—the woman you told me about?” “Yes, that’s the one. And I don’t think she’s pretty.” Jill warmed a bit at that, and hier tautness lessened. They ,were walking aimlessly now, the blare and glitter of the dance spot behind them. “She isn’t young, though,” she said spitefully. “She’s been around,” Spang said. “She knows what the score is.” “But what on earth does she want with Ric? I didn’t tell Mother, Spang. I’d hoped it might be just a piece of foolishness that would pass. I hoped maybe Ric would, be shipped out, and it would all Jnd and Mother needn't know. Shatffbtes on Ric so, and I couldn’t bear to hurt and worry her, when perhaps it was just a temporary folly.” “Ric won’t be shipped out for a month, at least. No more quotas coming up. But when he gets into officer’s training, he won’t have any time for foolishness.” “Let’s walk all the way, shall we? Or are you awfully tired?” “No, I like walking. I’m glad you came down, Jill.” Spang gath­ ered her arm closer. “Because I may be leaving soon. I’ve asked for my transfer to active duty. I don’t like this desk stuff.” “Soon?” Jill repeated in a small, thin voice. “How soon?” “We never know in this army. But an older man can do what I’m doing here, and things are shaping up fast. I want to be in on them.” “You mean you want to fly?” “I’m a flier, Jill. And our air force is getting to be a magnificent thing, and I want to be a part of it. I’ll have to get back into training —I want to learn to handle heavy stuff.” “I suppose it has to be that wsy. I’ll miss you, Spang. I hope you’ll miss me a little.” Spang cleared his throat. “I’ll miss you like the devil. But this mess will be over sometime, a year or two, I hope. Jill—wait a min­ ute. . . .” They were on a dimly lighted street, a shabby street, where a tall billboard made a dark rectangle of shadow. Spang drew her back further into the shadow, bent her head back, and kissed her swiftly on the lips. “Keep that for me till I come back, ” he said husk- iiy.“I will!” Jill whispered, quiver­ ing with breathless happiness from head to foot. “Oh, Spang, I will!” They were silent all the way .back to the hotel, but Jill’s blood was a tumult, a singing. This was it! This was real. He did care. It was in the pressure of his fingers on her arm, in his eyes as they came into the lighted lobby, in his uncer­ tain smile as he prodded the eleva­ tor button. “You’ll call me tomorrow morn­ ing? I’ll see you again?” Not too eagerly! Slow, Jill Mc­ Farlane! “Do my best,” he said,” and flicked a little salute at her as the elevator door opetied and he turned away. JiU groped into the elevator. Through the rose-colored fog that enveloped her she was aware of some one else standing there. That cold-eyed captain Spang had caUed “Old Cyanide.” He was looking at her keenly, and when she stopped at her floor he got out, too, and as she turned to go down the corridor he said, “Miss McFarlane?” JiU stopped, puzzled. “You are Miss McFarlane, aren’t you?” “Yes, I am Julia McFarlane.” “I am Roger Mackey. Pardon me for speaking to you, but I once had some friends named McFarlane —in Tennessee.” Captain Mackey Asks a Question “I Uve in Tennessee.” She had been right about him. He did look lonely and bewildered; the hard­ ness, the bitterness the young of­ ficers had spoken of softened as he smiled at her. “There was a girl with hair like yours, and her name was JuUa, too,” he said. “My mother, perhaps. She was JuUa McFarlane. She married Rich­ ard McFarlane, a sort of fourth cousin, I think.” “It was a long time ago,” he said, “but you reminded me of that JuUa McFarlane I knew, and then I heard your name spoken, so I took the Uberty of speaking to you. Your mother is quite weU?” “Oh, yes, she’s very weU. And StUl very young and lovely looking, we think. I’U be glad to remember you to her, Captain Mackey.” “I doubt if she wiU remember me. It was aU a very long time ago. Before the other war, in fact. But she was one of .those women you do not easily forget. Good night, Miss McFarlane.” “Good night, Captain Mackey.” • He reminded her of some one, why couldn’t she think who it was? She Uked him. He wasn’t grim at all. But she forgot him quickly, and it was weeks before she thought of him again, because she was in love and Spang had kissed her. Life was wonderful. Thin, lemon-tinted dawn was creeping into the east before she fell asleep. JiU waited aU morning,' wander­ ing around the room, frowning at the telephone, but neither Ric nor Spang caUed. She grew more im­ patient by the moment, though she knew that mUitary duty for officers or enlisted men gave Uttle thought to personal desires, and Uttle free­ dom during the day. But this wat Sunday. Ric was avoiding her, of course. And now she would have to go home and make up some vague, comforting Ues for her moth­ er, and old John I. would look at her with eyes like jet augers and probably corner her somewhere lat­ er and ask her what was going “Wrong with Ric.

BENSON President—Mardiag Cottefe Searef. Jitkaitsa A Sound Thinker > As I sat a few days ago in the spacious oilice of Mr. John Snyder, secretary of the Treasury, and li» tened to that keen thinking gentle man outline his views on certain monetary policies, I found myself wishing that all public thinking were as clear, and as cognizant of good economic horse-sense.In the first place the Secretary believes that a thorough study of the necessary costs of government should be made. He believes then that this cost should be reduced to the very minimum consistent with good government. In the second place he believes that a high na­ tional income is possible only if a sound economy is maintained^ This sound economy must be based upon maximum production at high ef­ ficiency, which he feels would make possible a large foreign trade. On Your Feet, Sam! In the third place he believes we should seriously undertake libera payments on the national debt This should be done at once. Ti me that is just plain, common horse sense. It is just the way. a wagi earner, farmer, merchant, or man­ ufacturer, heavily in debt, with a large family, but still in good health would have to plan if he expected ever to get on his feet and leave any heritage to his children. Uncle Sam is heavily in debt, his children have adopted spendthrifi habits, have lost the art of hare work, are quarreling with one an­ other, and are growing more and more inclined to leave the worrying to the old man. The need of the hour is sound counsel from Wash­ ington for the entire nation to real­ ize its critical condition, and to act accordingly. A Sound Program Secretary Snyder’s program needs to be understood, for it is one in which the whole nation can partici­ pate. His three point program (in my own words) would be about as follows: I. Stop the fantastic waste in al­ most every department of govern­ ment. Pare costs rigorously, forget­ ting political expediency. . Let industry reduce prices un­ til the profits stand at a very low level. Let labor aim for maximum production, in order to get a real raise through lower prices. Such production will permit active for­ eign markets, a thing not only neces­ sary for us but for other nations as well. 3. Let taxes remain on a broad base, with only those cuts being made which are necessary to induce investment in the tools of produc­ tion, while we all do our part to re­ duce the very heavy national debt. Steady Employment Personally, I would modify item three. It is my opinion that if re- ductions in the budget were serious­ ly and studiously undertaken, all three points Secretary Snyder fea­ tures could be achieved, and we could still obtain at the same time a real reduction in income taxes. Comparatively high taxes we must have. The costs of national living, in times of peace but amidst quar­ relsome and aggressive neighbors, may continue to run high. But there are certain reductions that by all means should be made in order to encourage more venture capital. We shall continue to need wide invest­ ment of private capital in tools. That will mean more jobs and more steady employment. U n cle Sam Says Abraham Lincoln’s birthday should be a reminder to my nieces and nephews that they have the oppor­tunity to emancipate themselves from future insecurity by buying United States Savings Bonds regu­larly. Every time you buy a bond you’ve added something to the fu­ture you’re creating—a home, an education for your children, a secure old age for yourself. Every signed payroll savings authorization card is a personal emancipation proclama­ tion—emancipation Stotu the slavery of a future hand-to-mouth existence.

I U lL UOtAfi There ar- several reasons why prospective purchasers of new au­ tomobiles are unable to get them. In the first place, it is trne that there is a shortage of certain ma­ terials and that plants are not run nlng to capacity limit because ot this. In spite of this, however, the produotion of new cars is much groater than the average citizen be lies it to be, In the secood place, * U ers are selling tbeir cars to "auto bootleggers" at a profit of several hundred dollars above the regular price. These bootleggers in turn also make a profit. If you really want a new car and are willing to pay seven or eight hundred dollars above the list price, you can get it, In the third place, hundreds of thousands of cars are shipped to foreign countries. In connection with this, you might ask: "But how can foreign countries buy them if they are as poor as they make out to he?’’ The answer, mv dear friend, is that our Govern- NHt BlS to several nations and these loans in beinii used In \>m Mo. biles Ratber interesting situation, isn’t it?

But the Army won’t be satisfied with that for once an entering wedge has been driven and the country is committed to the system of eon- scripting its young men for armed services, it will be argued that the training is a total waste unless It is followed up with an annual “re­ fresher course.” As in other coun­ tries, that will mean several weeks’ additional service each year for pro. bably twelve years, perhaps more. y alter Ikt BWj Iralnee will be subject to call without notice whenever an international crists can be drummed up.

W., Washington, D. C. WASHINGTON.—The sudden de­ scent upon Columbia’s shoulders of the mantle of world leadership has forced the President to add all sorts of odd jobs to his other extra-constitu­ tional functions. Traveling sales­ man is one of them. Almost be­ fore he learned his way around the White House, he had the Unit­ ed Nations as­ signment at San Francisco. Hard­ ly was he back from the Golden Gate when he was ordered to Pots­ dam. He already has become our “flyingest” chief executive. The Mexican trip was scarcely over •when he was called to the" wearying vigil at his mother’s bedside. Meanwhile he has conducted White House business without en­countering too much criticism for being absent without leave. In fact, his popularity with the public has grown. But at this writing some of his followers are growing a little res­ tive about what they call his appar­ ent neglect of certain issues which ought to be brought emphatically before the public. What was considered a crisis in world affairs was met successfully by overwhelming congressional support for the post-UNRRA relief and Greek-Turkish aid bills. Al­ though at times it has balanced upon a rather thin edge, the solidar­ ity of bi-partisan foreign policy has been maintained. But there is an­ other matter which those most concerned declare has not been brought home to the public — the world food situation. There are two important facts: 1. Two years have passed since the end of the war and the world food situation is no better. 2. Although congress (the peo­ ple) has been willing to vote huge funds for relief, it appears unwilling to continue certain controls on business, without which the machinery for help­ ing the stricken countries to their feet will break down. The first job is to bring home the seriousness of point one. The second job (which has been dumped into the President’s lap) is to convince congress of the importance of point two. Press and radio have been asked to help with the first job. They are trying. Here’s one small contribu­ tion: In terms of dollars the de­ struction caused by World War II was seven times that of World War I. Recovery is, therefore, at least seven times as hard, economic dif­ ficulties are multiplied more than sevenfold because of political diffi- ★ ★ culties. It is impossible to estimate the “destruction” in terms of what has happened to social and political values. As to point two, that becomes a concrete issue which ought to be in debate before these lines are printed; namely, the question of ex­ tending certain wartime controls over exports and imports. Briefly, if export controls go off, foreign nations can bid against each other for food. Wheat, for example. That will send the price of wheat skyrocketing. What does that mean? In the first place it means the country with the most money gets the most wheat, regarless of its need. Others go hungry. It means the American taxpayer will have to pay a fancy price for the wheat the government buys. It means extra American dollars which could be used to buy other American products, which would encourage production, will be sucked out of foreign pockets and world trade will be stultified by just that much. That is one argument for extending controls on exports. Fortunately there are also a lot of “selfish-interest” reasons for con­ trolling some exports. It’s this way: The man who extracts oil from soy beans, although he is quite willing to have his oil exported, probably can sell it here anyway. But he doesn’t want beans from which he gets the oil sent out of the country. The man who refines the oil doesn’t mind having his refined product ex­ ported but he doesn’t want the un­ refined oil (his raw material), which he has to buy, exported; the man who uses that refined oil to make margarine doesn’t want to compete with foreigners for it, al­ though he’s quite willing to have foreigners buy his margarine. These mixed motives don’t add up to a very good argument for con­ gress, because the only controls de­ sired are for the other fellow. It doesn’t generate too much pressure because there are enough “agins” to balance the "furs.” But when it comes to imports, it’s a different story. Take fertilizer. Britain and the United States, straining to increase production, now are using twice as much fer­ tilizer as in prewar years. That is all right. But the destitute Euro­ pean countries with their very tired soil need every ounce they can get —and if there were no import con­ trols they would get less—the rich buyers would get more. The pres­ sure on congress is all against limit­ ing importation of fertilizer. Some imports into America are, of course, highly desirable—to get those American dollars abroad in order that foreign nations may buy raw materials and other things. But if we are to keep the rest of the markets alive until they can feed themselves, what we give out and what we take In will have to be made to fit the needs of the situation, not the desires of the American busi­ nessman who doesn’t realize that if he is given too free a hand he’ll be cutting off his own nose with it. ★ ★ H u m a n ity I s a t th e C r o s s r o a d s Two reports in the news recently caused some interesting comments in Washington on the international situation. Charles Reese, extension apiarist of University of Ohio, recently re­ ported that because of the late sea­ son and resultant scarcity of pollen on which bees feed, many of the drones (who do not work and are preserved for social purposes only) have been pushed out of the hives by the workers. Picket lines have been formed and the drones are not allowed to re-enter. They die in the damp and cold. “Theirs (the bees’) is not a very pleasant society,” says apiarist Reese. "Hive activity is communis­ tic and utterly ruthless.” A statement by Andre Visson, French writer who syndicates a column in American newspapers, was the second inspiration for un­ official comment. Visson said: “The world has indeed entered into a contest between American­ ism and Communism.” This pearl of wisdom laid beside the dispatch from Columbus moved a certain engineer-economist-:Philos- opher to the observations which follow: For the first time, this pundit pointed out, the human race is really at the crossroads. Life has followed two paths, one taken by the animals, another by those who have in them something that dis­ tinguishes them from the beast. One path has been clearly visible to ma­ terialistic philosophers, Nietzsche, Hegel, Marx and the monster who was created out of their theories, Hitler. The other is the one illu­ mined by the thought and action of those who from cot or castle, from work-bench or cloistered hall, lived in the belief that the activities of the state, or the individual, should be measured against something other than material forces. It has been shown that animals, when they master technology, tend to form a perfectly regimented, to­ talitarian state. Take the ants and the bees. They long ago were able to do what Hitler planned and had begun to practice—change the na­ ture of species, not only by creating a special environment for the young but also by feeding it certain foods. The bees carefully segregate the babies (the eggs) and by feeding them three different menus produce three different classes, the workers, the drones and the queen. Hitler had well- worked-out theories for produc­ing a slave-class by feeding the children certain vitamins, with­ holding others, weeding ont all those Hndesired by the Nazi state, feeding and training a ruling class (Fuehrerprinzip). And now, the followers of Marxist- Leninism are set up to carry out the principle. LIVING BARRIER PROTECTS CHILDREN . . . Whether the danger comes from tigers or autos, mothers, ahvays are ready to protect their young. When a narrow residential street in Columbus, Ohio, became a speedway for motorists, aroused neighborhood mothers formed a living barrier to traffic to permit their children to cross the street from the school bus in safety. N E W S R E V IE W F a rm B u d g e t C uts H it; T ra in F a re s In c re a se d Anderson FARM FUROR: Stormy Weather Possibly the most violent storm of the year, according to the eco­ nomic and political barometer, is the one which was raised when the house appropriations committee recommended a 32 per cent cut in department of agriculture funds for the coming year. Slashing more than 383 million dollars from the amount asked by President Truman, the committee opened the flood­ gates for a deluge of protests from Clinton Anderson, secretary of agri­ culture, and Demo- c r a t i c congress­ men, who claimed they would fight the action right up to next year’s elec­ tions, if necessary. Declaring that the reduction "directs a sharp cut at the interests of the American farm family and the general wel­ fare,” Anderson said that the “greatest harm” would be to the soil conservation program, the farm price support program and programs designed to help veterans and low income families become better established. The 32 per cent cut would elimi­ nate the Agriculture AdjiKtment administration.by July I, 1948. Cur­ rently, the AAA is carrying on its basic program of promoting soil conservation on 3,500,000 cooperat­ ing farms by paying farmers for following practices intended to in­ crease soil fertility and, hence, to increase production. The proposed fund slash would mean that farm­ ers this year would be paid about 50 p'er cent of what they previously had been promised. In answering the criticism, the house appropriations committee said that its recommended cuts are “selective” and reasonable—based on actual farm needs. HOUSING: Unfounded Hope Popular belief that any substan­ tial reductions in the cost of new housing will occur in the near fu­ ture is not founded on realities. That assertion was made by James C. Downs Jr., president of the Real Estate Research corpora­ tion, who explained that besides being geared to a high national debt, housing costs, like prices of other hard goods, are directly af­ fected by the large demand for American capital and production by other countries. “The housing shortage today is worse than a year ago,” he said, “and it will continue to grow pro­ gressively worse for some time.” He pointed out that increased earning power has put a greater number in the market for new homes, but at the same time build­ ers are afraid to start new con­ struction because of high costs. The theory that prices would drop kept many persons from buying or build­ ing homes last year, Downs said. I T R A V E L P A Y : Train Fares Vp To offset increased operating costs, Interstate Commerce com­ mission authorized an approximate 10 per cent increase in basic pas­ senger fares for 60 railroads operat­ ing east of the Mississippi and north of the Ohio and Potomac rivers. The change will boost one-way passenger rates from 2.2 to 2.5 cents a mile in coaches and from 3.3 to 3.5 cents a miles in sleeping and parlor cars. There will be an increase of about 15 per cent in coach round-trip rates and about four per cent in Pullman round-trip fares. In granting the increase, ICC noted that those railroads which re­ quested the new rates incurred a deficit of 54 million dollars from passenger train operations last year. IT’S W ONDERFUL: Long Time Peace Announcing the immediate aboli« tion of capital punishment in Rus­ sia, Soviet authorities explained the move on the grounds that it was made possible by Russia’s growing strength, the people’s patriotism and Uie certainty of peace “for a long time.” Said the Moscow radio: “The in­ ternational situation during the time after Germany’s capitulation and Japan’s capitulation shows that the cause of peace can be consid­ ered secure for a long time in spite of attempts by aggressive elements to provoke war.” Meanwhile, Herbert Hoover looked on the other side of the mask to charge Russia with attempting to bleed the United States through relief channels and blaming her foj the economic paralysis of Japan and Germany. He declared that futher relief will remain necessary as long as the Soviets continue their obstructionist tactics and demands for repara­ tions, thus blocking peace treaties with the two countries and keeping their economies paralyzed. F r e n c h H o n o r r Baby Chick Need of Riboflavin Is Great Curled Toe Paralysis Caused by Deficiency Riboflavin, a crystalline yellow vi­tamin containing nitrogen and ribose, has proven necessary for growth of poultry.

Riboflavin is widely distributed in feeding materials. It is present in greatest amounts in milk products, ;east, -live meal, alfalfa, cereal grasses and byproducts of the fer­ menting and distilling industry. Only a few grams are required per ton Df mixed feeds. Many poultry authorities have stated there is an advantage in using iatural riboflavin concentrates in preference to synthetic riboflavin. The natural concentrate generally supplies other important nutrients aside from riboflavin. When chicks are fed a ration low in riboflavin, they start squatting and develop a condition known as juried toe paralysis. In the past the lack of riboflavin In feed ingredients has caused con­ siderable economic loss. Baby Jhicks require greater quantities than older birds. Deficiency in laying flocks lowers egg production and results in inferior eggs or poor hatchability.

A P P A L L IN G W A S T E M o u n tin ff F i r e L o s s P r e d i c t e d CHICAGO.—With fire losses con­ tinuing to mount, damage may ex­ ceed the billion dollar mark by 1950. Frank A. Christensen, president of National Board of Fire Underwri­ ters, warns in urging support of the federal action program to save life and resources which was the result of President Truman’s conference on fire prevention. The increasing fire waste was attributed by Christensen to two causes, one physical and one psy­ chological. “The physical facto* tends te in­ crease the number of fires of all kinds, and the size of losses where flames gain headway because of de­ layed alarms, poor fire protection, negligence or bad housekeeping,” he explained. “The psychological factor arises out of our careless and reckless habits,” he explained. Christensen pointed out that since 1941, national waste by fire has more than doubled, rising to 616 million dollars for the 12 months ended April of this year from 300 million dollars in 1941. “Even more appalling,” he said, "is the indication that the loss of life may have' risen to a figure never experienced before. Loss of life in hotel fires in 1946 was greater than in any year in our history.” Despite a 22 per cent increase in arson investigations, the national board had found a sharp decline in the number of fires started for profit during the last year. The board pointed out that in the year ended April 30, juveniles ac­ counted for almost half of the per­ sons arrested because of incendiary fires, and persons mentally irre. sponsible for another large share. are lost. When you light a match to a mature sweet clover crop, you lose about 150 pounds of nitrogen and three to four tons of organic matter. It takes more effort to plow these materials under than it does to burn them, but an extra 16 to 20 bushels of corn per acre and a more fertile soil should be worth the ex­ tra trouble. New Disease of Sweet Potatoes In the Sooth A new and distinctive disease of sweet potatoes known as “internal cork” has been the subject of in­ tensive studies by Dr. C. J. Nus- baum, South Carolina experiment station. Sweet potatoes affected with the disease are characterized by the occurrence of dark brown, corky spots of irregular shape and size. There are indications that it may be possible to develop resis­ tant strains. The disease is caused by a virus but little else is known about it. Farmers’ Money Not AU Increased Earnings “What farmers do now with their liquid assets and credit will deter­ mine their financial position for the next two decades. It is imperative for farmers to recognize that much Df their present money in fact is not increased profits. It represents the soil fertility sold off the farm, de­ preciation of buildings, fences and equipment. The money farmers now have, in large part, belongs back on their land—to restore soil—to mod- arnize—” The Land. Trapping Is Sood Way To Control Moles In the spring the activities of the common mole appear to be more noticeable. Unlike rodents, such as rats and mice, moles live chiefly on earthworms and insects. The mole is unpopular with farmers because his tell tale ridges and mounds dis­ figure the fields, ruin new seedbeds and damage gardens and lawns. Trapping appears to be the most satisfactory way yet found to con­ trol the mole. F r u i t a n d V e g e t a b l e O n K i t c h e n T o w e l s 17" ITCHEN towels can be such fun!

Shaggy buffaloes provide a reminder of the Old West for visitors at Wind Cave National park in South Dakota, one of three parks embracing the nation’s' mysterious cave systems. MECCA FOR TRAVELERS Mysteries of Underground Io rld Beokon Adventurous WNV Features. Caves have fascinated m an from the dawn of antiquity to the present day. Stories of them abound in history, folklore and mythology, yet these m ysterious underground worlds stiU beckon the adventurous and the w eird scenes to be discovered there fire im aginations. Three great cave system s in the United States have been established as national parks— M ammoth cave in Kentucky, Carlsbad caverns in New Mexico and Wind cave in South Dakota. In 1946 these three national^- National Parks Sixt6 In a Series parks were visited by more than half a million people. Mammoth cave has been world famous for more than a century. It is believed to have been discovered in 1799 by a pio­ neer named Houchin who followed a wounded bear into the cave entrance. A few years later salt petre taken from the cave was used in the manufac­ ture of gunpowder for American troops in the War of 1812, and not long after that the great passage­ ways and domed chambers of Mam­ moth cave became an international mecca for travelers. There are gal­ leries on five distinct levels in Mam­ moth cave and during the course of the underground trip, the visitor de­ scends 360 feet to the lowest level where the Echo river winds its tor­ tuous way in eternal darkness. Echo river is-probably the most distinc­ tive and interesting feature of the cave and a short trip is made on it in a fiat-bottomed boat. Strange eyeless fish live in the river. There are now more than 150 miles of explored passageways in Mammoth cave and the visitor is offered a choice of several tours which vary in length from 2% to 7% hours. On the all-day trip one has lunch at the Snowball Dining Room, 267 feet below the surface. An indi­ cation of what one may expect to see is given by the names of some of'the formations in the cave: Bot­ tomless Pit, Fat Man’s Misery, Ruins of Karnak, Frozen Niagara, Violet City, Jenny Lind’s Armchair and Martha Washington’s Statue. Long under private ownership, Mammoth cave became a national park in 1941 largely through the foresight and generosity of the peo­ ple of the State of Kentucky, who through personal contributions made possible purchase of the cave property and its donation to the federal government.* * * I CARLSBAD CAVERNS .was pro­ claimed a national monument in 1923 and given national park status in 1930. Probably its earliest ex­ plorer was Jim White, a cowboy,1 who entered it in 1901. Seeing a dark, moving column issuing from the top of a mountain, White inves­ tigated and found a natural opening in the earth which led him down to the caverns. The dark, smokelike column proved to be alive, a mov­ ing stream of bats from down in the darkness of the caves. This spec­ tacular flight of bats, may be seen every afternoon at dusk during the warm months of the year. The descent into Carlsbad caverns from the natural en­ trance is an unforgettable ex­ perience. From a point well be­ low the surface one may look back through the semi-gloom to see an endless procession of people zig-zagging downward amid huge boulders and gro­ tesque rock formations. The scene reminds one of descrip­tions from Dante’s “Inferno.” Elevators are available for those who do not wish to de­ scend or ascend on foot. Everything in Carlsbad caverns Is on a vast scale. The rooms are huge and the stalactites and stalag­ mites are larger' than in any other known cave. Some of the stalag­ mites have the shape and size of church spires. The dominant colors In Carlsbad are varying shades of, tan. The descent from the natural entrance to the 750 foot level is made via the Green Lake Room, the King’s Palace, the Queen’s Chamber and the Papoose Room: After lunch in the underground caf­ eteria comes the main event, a tour of the “Big Room.” This tremen­ dous chamber is about 4,000 feet long, 500 feet wide and 300 feet from floor to ceiling. In this room many city skyscrapers would seem small. Here one sees the Temple of the Sun and the pagoda-like stalagmite, called “Rock of Ages." The trip takes about seven hours.♦ * * WIND CAVE near the Black Hills in South Dakota, a national park since 1903, is much smaller in ex­ tent than either Mammoth cave or Carlsbad caverns, but it has un­ usual formations known as “box work” found in no other caves in the United States. The tour of Wind cave requires from one to two hours and the return to the surface is made by elevator. An additional interesting feature of Wind Cave National park is a large buffalo herd which may be seen from the park road.* • * MAMMOTH CAVE, Carlsbad cav­ erns and Wind cave are accessible Iiy paved highways, and all have bus or taxi connections with one or more railroads. There are no over­ night facilities at Carlsbad caverns, but there are tourist camps near the park entrance and hotels in Carlsbad, N. M. A free campsite is provided in Wind Cave National park, but the nearest hotels or cab­ ins will be found in Hot Springs, S. D. At Mammoth Cave National park hotels, cottages and park transportation are furnished, Here also National Park service has free campsites and picnic areas. •All three caves are illuminated by modern electric systems; however, in the historic section of Mammoth cave parties still are guided by the traditional lanterns and flickering pine torches. There are no elevators in Mammoth cave and visitors in poor physical condition should not descend to the level of Echo river as the climb to the surface1 is steep. AU trips in the cave are conducted by National Park service guides and rangers. SCENE FROM ‘INFERNO’ . . .

Citcus Performer Loses P a n ts, So W e H a v e T ig h ts Circus tights were invented in 1828 by Nelson Hower, a bareback rider.

That is why we are opposing liquor stores for Davie. W hen W orld 11 was going on The Record ran many war Bond advertisements1 which were spon­ sored bv the merchants and busi' ness firms of the town.

So does rationing of industrial sugar. AU sugar controls are due to end October 31, unless Con­ gress says otherwise.

LOOK FOR THE.LEAF ON THE PACKAGE L H 5 T L O V E R Jill McFarlaner 26» lias fallen In love with Idem. Spang Gordon. Her mother* Julia* Is upset as her own husband* Richard* disappeared during the first war and she had hoped to spare her • daughter from being an army wife. JiBrS brother* Ric* is involved with n divorcee and Jill goes to camp to Investigate the matter. Btc teus her he is e» duty and unable to see her but while she is dancing with Spang they see Wc and the woman In ques­ tion, Sandra Calvert, together. Jill finds Sandra an older, hardened wom­ an. Later she is accosted by Captain Mackey, known at camp as “Old Cyan­ ide." He tells ber he knew her mother years ago. He looks vaguely familiar. CHAPTER VIH She might as well catch the after­ noon bus, but she would have lunch first and then try calling Spang again to say good-by. Few people were in the dining­ room, a few commercial travelers, several lonely looking women^ whom Jill catalogued as officers’ wives, a child perched in a high chair and being coaxed to drink milk by a wan-looking mother, and at a table secluded near a window was the blonde Mrs. Calvert.Jill went straight to her table. “How do you do?” she said cool­ ly. “I’m Jill McFarlane, we met last night. Mind if I sit here? I have a phobia about eating alone.” "Delighted, I’m sure.” Mrs. Cal­ vert was cool, too, and definitely unenthusiastic. “I’m practically fin­ ished, however. My lunch—” she made a little gesture toward the half consumed salad before her, “is usually unimportant.” “A few vitamins and no calo­ ries?” Jill took a chair. "You’re one of the courageous women. I’m a farm gal myself, with an out­ rageous appetite.” “You’re very fortunate to be able to indulge it. Few women can and keep the respect of their mirrors.” “I’ll have the jellied soup, stuffed crab, and some coffee, please,” Jill told the hovering waitress, then leaned her chin on her palms. “You live here, Mrs. Calvert? In the ho­ tel?” Mrs. Calvert was studying her eyebrows in a little mirror, disci­ plining the curves with a Iong- nailed forefinger. “I’m a camp follower," she said. “I followed my husband here—my former husband. Then he was transferred back to the Islands, and I decided that I couldn’t endure be­ ing married to him any more. So I’m staying because when you’re entirely alone places don’t matter.” “And with all the boys at the field so near there’s less chance to be lonely, of course?”Mrs. Calvert’s eyes sharpened a little, but her voice kept its cool smoothness.“They’re such nice boys, all of them. I was an officer's wife, bad­ ly cramped by a lot of taboos and military procedure, but now that I’m free I enjoy being with these boys of my own age. My husband was years older,” she added, “and definitely a home tyrant. I shouldn’t talk about him, poor Win, he may be in some ghastly jungle now in horrible danger!” Nice, safe danger, after being married to you! Jill was thinking with the crude brutality of youth. Aloud she said, “Nice of you to give so much time to Richard. Ric has always been more or less of a family problem. My mother was terribly worried about him until he enlisted.” “Rickey’s getting on well, I’m sure. Though, of course, military life is difficult for men with his background. Men who’ve been ac­ customed to freedom and having the best, of course. But they adjust themselves beautifully. We have to admire their spirit.” “I hope Ric decides to stay on in the army.” Jill salted the vapid soup, poked at rubbery lumps in it. “He hates our farm, and he hasn’t shown any aptitude for anything else. And* of course, he hasn’t any money.” “He told me about your farm. It must be a lqvely place—quite a show place, he said. I was so in­ terested in hearing about it.” “It’s a pig farm.” Jill was blunt. “Ric must have let his imagination get the best of him once he got away from it. ■ When he’s there he loathes everything about it. We have to 'work awfully hard to keep it going. My mother works all day in over­ alls and a man’s shirt. I got this blister hoeing beans.” She exhibit­ ed her palm. “Our farm help have gone off to the army, and even my eighty-year-old grandfather has to work, so if Ric has been embroider­ ing tales to you about green lawns and pedigreed horses and stuff, just write them off as a homesick boy’s wishful thinking.” Mrs. Calvert’s eyes were masked behind carefully trained eyelids. She put away her lipstick and the Ilie mirror. Slie readied lot her check and; picked up her purse with lingers that clutched a little. Spang Calls to Say Gaod-By “Nice to'have seen you again. Good-by,” she remarked, rising. She walked away briskly, without looking back. Jill,, watching her receding shoulders, felt a heavy sense of failure, a feeling that she had done a naive and childish thing.She’s quite sure that Ric is a rich woman’s son and that I’m a med­ dling sister with my knife out for greedy throats like hers. Jill told herself. She put Ric out of her mind grim­ ly and thought only of Spang, won­ dering if she would see him again. Everything lovely that she owned she had put on this morning. She had turned a hundred times before the mirror, changed her lipdtick twice, worried at her nails, and pinned and repinned her hair into exactly the right sort of halo so that every curl should shimmer with allure, when at last the telephone rang. Spang said, “Hello, Jill. I was afraid you might have checked out.” “Oh, no—I may not go for hours. Will I see you again, Spang?” “Sorry,” he said slowly, while Jill’s heart grew heavier, “can’t make it today. They’re running in Sunday classes on me, I’ll be tied up all day. But I had a moment, “I’m quite delirious about the army—hadn’t you heard?” and I thought I’d spend it with you. Nice of*Mr. Alexander Graham Bell to have fixed that for us, isn’t it?” “We’ll put up a plaque for him somewhere,” Jill answered, making her voice light, not letting disap­ pointment creep into it. “Sorry I have to go without seeing you, Spang.” “So’m I. Though I didn’t know whether you could stand another dose of the army.” ‘Tm quite delirious about the arrqy—hadn’t you heard? Don’t you know that all women run dizzily after uniforms, especially if they’re all decorated up with brass and stuff?” "I did hear a rumor, but I thought it might be propaganda. Morale stuff, keep the boys happy, keep ’em singing while they’re marching off to war with blisters on their heels and shoulders.” A Warning Against MacTtey She said, “Spang, I ate lunch with that Mrs. Calvert today. I simply crashed in, and I know now that I was awfully stupid about it. I told her that Ric hadn’t any money, and she looked at me with those cynical eyes of hers and didn’t believe a word of it. It worries me, and yet I hate to tell Mother.” “If Ric gets himself into a mess let him wiggle out of it,” counseled Spang. “Might be good for him. Maybe he’s depended on other peo­ ple too much already.” “But it might break my mother’s heart. I have to think of that, Spang. And she has had enough heartbreak for one lifetime.” “I hadn’t thought of that,” Spang said. “You couldn’t do anything about getting him moved to another post, could you, Spang?” “No, I couldn’t, Jill. I’m only a technical officer here, and those things are handled by personnel boards with a lot of red-tape in­ volved. Mackey’s on that board, and he keeps the red-tape tightened up plenty stiff. I can’t even talk to Ric, he wouldn’t listen.” Jill said, "By the way, I saw that Captain Mackey last night after you left me, spang, He came up and introduced himself. He thought that he once knew my mother." Spang did not speak for a breath. Then he said, soberly, “That’s an old line, JiU- AU the old he-wolves spring it when they get their eyes ,on a pretty young girl. Fatherly approach. Knock ’em off their guard.” “But he didn’t appear to be in­ terested in me at all. He merely said that he knew a girl once in Tennessee named Julia McFar- lane.” “That’s part of the technic, Jill.” “But it could be true, you know. Mother was a belle before she was married, and it was war then, too, Spang. You couldn’t by any chance be jealous?” “Sure, I’m jealous! I don’t trust Cyanide, for all his bars and med­ als.” * Jill giggled delightedly. “You’re so fuirny, Spang. The P09J old man looked entirely harmless to ,me. Just a lonely, unhappy old man.” “He’s not so old. I don’t trust him any, Jill. Stay away from the fellow.” “Oh, I’ll be going home right away now, on the afternoon bus. You don’t know when you’re leaving. Spang?” “No, I don’t know, and even if I did, I couldn't tell you, Jill—and you know better than to ask.” “You’ll be fighting, won’t you?” “Gosh, I hope so! I’m tired of this academic stuff. The Japs haven’t read any books, but look how they fight!” “Will you write to me, Spang?” “If I have a chance, I will. Will you answer if I write?” “How silly! Of course I’ll an­ swer. Pages and pages, all about the pigs.” "You can tell me what you’re doing.” What would she be doing? Wait­ ing! Hung up by the heartstrings, tormented by the inching of the hours! Oh, Spang, please let me have love to keep, a fire to warm myself by when the dark comes too early! But though he said good-by half a dozen times, he did not speak of love. He hung up, with the same little flick as the salute he always gave when he left her. She breathed, “I love you. Spang.” But the.-click of the tele­ phone being disconnected left the whisper hanging in air, unheard, unanswered. After that she cried. Long and wretchedly, all alone, with the hot afternoon passing. The yellow leaves began falling from the apple trees and the sumac burned red against the fences. Jill crossed her booted leg over the saddle. The mare, Dave’s new saddle mare, was warm and saltily moist and lazy. “I hate September!” Jill said abruptly. “It’s a stupid month, that doesn’t mean anything. It isn’t summer, and it isn’t fall. It just sulks through thirty days. All the flowers are tired, but they won’t die, and the whole world lopks shabby. People look shabby, too, in fady summer clothes or fall things that show dust and . are smothery. If ever I do something completely ffiad and unforgivable it will be because it’s September and I can’t bear it.” Dave did not look at her. Julia was worried about Jill, her growing irritation, her restlessness, her im­ patience with everything. “That isn’t the answer, Dave,” Julia had said. “Not trumped-up jobs that she sees through instantly and does with that air of awful pa­ tience and thinly concealed con­ tempt,” She knew so well that there was no answer to the problem of Jill. The bloom of love, fruity and glow­ ing, was upon Jill now, she was ripe with it, gilded with it, and ev­ ery nerve and vein were vibrant with readiness, and she had not been chosen. Her loneliness was made brackish by the bitter distilla- tiojj of disappointment, and tears too fiercely contained canker into acid and weaken the strongest spir­ it. “Take her places, Dave,” Julia had pleaded. “I cannot do any­ thing for her. To a woman in Jill’s state of mind other women are ut­ terly obnoxious, even women they love.” JlJl Tries Her Hand at Cupid So Dave and Jill rode the hills on this first Sunday in September and when Jill had spoken her tirade against the sun-drunk weather she kicked her toe back into the stir* rup and jerked the mare’s head up and said in a sharp and harsh voice, “Dave, why don’t you marry my mother?” Dave let his reins faU slack and the horse reached instantly, unre­ proved, for a sassafras bough. “Because” he said slowly “she believes that she’s still married to your father.” Jill clicked her teeth. “You know that hope is fantastic, Dave.” “Yes, Jill, I know.” “I never saw my father,” she went on. “He was in France when I was born, Mother doesn’t even know for sure that he ever knew that I was born. She wrote letters but never had any answers, Hie letters didn’t come back, nothing came back. It’s grisly to think about Grandfather going over there and watching them open graves but in war things like that happen,” “Yes, they happen.” “Then we went to Washington and Mother and Grandfather spent days investigating records but there wasn’t anything. And yet she goes on waiting.” • (TO BE CONTiNUEDl E x p e r ts F o ile d B y C o lle g e Q u iz Many Students on Par With Information Please and Similar Posers.

K ing Ibn Saud W ill Ge! 5 B illions From Oil Com panies WASHINGTON. — Chairman Brewster (Rep., Me.) of the senate war investigating committee said King Ibn Saud and his heirs will re­ ceive “about 5 billion dollars” in royalties from American oil com­ panies. At the same time Brewster and Senator Hatch CDem., N. M.), a member of the investigating group, said they are confident the com­ mittee will receive all papers and documents from the files of the late President Roosevelt dealing with the Arabian oil transactions now under investigation. Basil O’Connor, one of the execu­ tors of the Roosevelt estate, and other custodians of the Roosevelt papers at Hyde Park have agreed to discuss the oil documents at a closed door session of the com­ mittee. Another senator said a separate investigation of the multi-million dollar oil transactions has been launched by the justice department. Brewster said the estimate of a 5 -billion-dollar royalty income for Ibn Saud was based on testimony and documents already before the senate investigators.

Try waxing your bureau draw­ ers. Scrub the drawers with soap and water first, however, to be sure no musty odors are left in them. When applying the wax, use a clean cloth, and apply as much as the wood will take without be­ coming sticky. The application of wax to bureau drawers will close the wood pores and give a hardwood finish to soft woods. -AT1HafDVVAflE and-FARM STORES -*1 5D O r a h p m a S P i A X l H '.ttt THB PERSON who always thinks he’s right is usually left behind.

(They are w illing to let m erit be the judge of th eir handiw ork. Such traits :as speed, accuracy, stam ina, de­ p endability, and initiative are w hat get a fellow ahead. A m erica has seen this kind of !com petition m ake real m en. In turn these free m en have m ade A m er- ica. E very w orker, no m atter w hether he m akes use of strong hand or agile rriind, puts his faith in 'th e trading of the valuable com m od­ ities he possesses to his em ployer. Competition is good policy for crafts­ m en, athletes, scholars, fisherm en, shopkeepers, and American busi­ ness in general. The A m erican peo- pie have reasoned wisely that com­ petition in industry must be main- tained so th at the whole nation m ay U n c le S a m S a y s benefit, Enforced Agreements Does com petition on the level of labor have any value for the w elfare of the nation? It is obvious th at our industry, of which labor is a part, exists for the sake of those who con­ sum e goods. Policies th at add un­ reasonably to the costs of goods, or any other non-com petitive practices, endanger the free econom y that m ade us great. Closed-shop agreem ents, usually signed by m anagem ent under du­ ress, present this kind of danger. The ■ non - com petitive m onopolistic n atu re of such enforced closed-shop agreem ents is apparent. Labor Pd of Ialr cMnpelilioil Iof Sfik I), Improved service. Unions need not Iind their only competition with em­ ployers. Rather, management an( labor have need of cooperation, for they complement each ether. Too D angerous M r. G unnar .A ierson, executive vice-president of the F ederation of Swedish L abor Unions, told m e that 80% of Swedish labor belongs to Unions. Y et, he inform ed m e, the Federation of L abor U nions is un­ alterably opposed to the closed shop. They feel th at the closed shop is antagonistic to the very principle of freedom which labor unions enjoy and w hich they m ust help defend in their own interest. A universal closed shop in A m er­ ica would am ount to one trem endous Itiye labor ffitk lie premium placed fill I ecrity, This would also make lakor m ore pow erful than any plain A m er­ ican would wish. Any segm ent as pow erful as that, either would be actual head of a to talitarian govern­ m ent, or would be so pow erful th a t only a totalitarian state could deal w ith such a pow er. A national closed shop is too dangerous for A m erica; and would m ean the end of free labor unions. L abor w ants no such regim e, w hether you call it fascist, com m u­ nist, o r by som e other fancy nam e th a t m ay y et appear. U nder any other system you can. think of, as com pared w ith a free A m erica, la­ bor would be the loser. In Nazi Germany, HiUer found it necessary to protect his to talitarian state by tbAlishin; labor unions. In Ribsli Stalin simply runs them. There’s every reason- why we must avoid monopolies of either labor or indus- tty, «id instead must foster compe- tition in every w ay.

Is Trial By Jury Failing In Purpose? The recent case in South Caro Iina where confessed murderers of Willie Earle, negro prisoner, were freed by a jury leads Thomas Lo max Hunter, in the Richmond Times-Dispatcb, to make the fol­ lowing editorial comment: ' I have often observed that trial by jury, even when the race prob­ lem is not an issue, has become ar­ chaic and inept. Its general result is the escape of guilty men. Its members are chosen after a careful examination to prove tbeir ignor ance of the matlet which they are to determine We ask an opinion of those men who have sworn that they have no opiuion on the most discussed matter in their commun­ ity. After the jury has been chos­ en with careful regard ;o its ignor ance, it hears the evidence touch­ ing the guilt or innocense of the accused. Duly befuddled and con fused, it is now instructed by the judge... It retires to its jury room to deliberate upon the mat­ ter, its foreman bearing in his hand a sheaf of papers in which the in definable thing, reasonable doubt’ is defined in every possible permu­ tation of phraseology, and great stress laid upon the presumption of the prisoner’s innocence. Solemn­ ly adjured that they must resolve every doubt in favor of the accus­ ed, there is iitsle to wonder at the large escape of scoundrelism.” Trial by jury has been cherished as a bulwark of liberty since the days of the Magna Charter. But as we have pointed out before, the court system has become outmod­ ed. Trial by jury should certainly be retained, but sweeping court re­ forms are necessary if tbe ends of justice are to be met. If a violent crime is committed in a countv wnerc they are news­ papers and the radio, it is certain that the intelligent peaple therein will have heard tbe case discussed before trial and will have formed some kind of an opinion, but not necessarily prejudiced. But the outmoded law of crimi­ nal procedure under which our courts are operating would allow lhe juror to be disqualified if he has heard the case discussed and formed any opinion. In effect, this means that only the ignoinnt; stu­ pid and dumb people who know or care nothing about current events and conditions prevailing are the only ones qualified to serve as ju­ rors on a capital case —Wilkes Pa. triot Journal, I Fair Exchange Two ladies who hadn’t seen each other for a long time happened to meet on the street, and of course took time to exchange information.

Eastern Belt Markets May Have Early Sales ■ Prospects are bright for tobacco farmers of tbe Sanford, Carthage and Aherdeen areas who are seek ing to move auction sales up one week this year. Farmers served by the three markets have asked Representatives C. B. Deane and John H. Folger to help them in arrangiug for the opening of those markets simul­ taneously with the Border Belt markets, which generally open a week ahead of the Eastern Belt. Fred S. Royster of Henderson, president of the Bright Belt Ware­ house Association, toid Represen­ tative Deane in a letter that his group is ready to set up a com­ mittee to discuss new opening dates if the United States Tobacco As. sociation agrees. The Lee and Moore County Farm Bureaus, in requesting the chango in opening dates, said the three communities are ‘more geographi cally attache! to the Southeastern area than to other belts” with Jater opening dates. * This Is The Budget That ‘Can’t Be Cut The 1948 budget proposed by President Truman requests $8-8 billion for independent offices of government — $5.5 billion more tban they spent in 1940. In 1943 there were 521 such a- gencies; today there are 1,141. 93 lend government funds. 29 handle lahor problems 64 handle business problems. 34 acqnire lands 16 operate wildlife preservations. 12 conduct home-and community planning. 14 engage in torescry. to handle materials and constru- tion, 28 engage in social welfare. 22 provide insurance. 65 collect statistics. This is the Bureaucracy and the Budget that Presikent Truman de mands to be continued, and one of the reasons who be says taxes Car­ not be reduced! Meanuess Increasing The Sandhill Citizen, in a recent issue, nad the following to say in regard to meauness- ‘ ‘Lots of meanness going on these days. We can’t understand so much of it. Day after day you pick up the paper to find a new attempt at rape. We notice that within a week the fifth negro-white rape as. sault case was reported within tbe Carolines. We are against lynch­ ing. But the hand of the law should move faster in these cases. Special terms of court should be called, the accused brought to a speedy trial, given a fair bearing and justice meted out in short or­ der. Giving a person a death sen­ tence, having it commoted to life in prison and then within a few years paroled, is not helping mat ters any. Most juries and courts are pretty linieut This paroling business should be bandied migh'y carefully and not abused. We no lice that some negro organization has employed a lawyer to defend Buddy Rush. They would be do­ ing more for their canse and race if they hired a lawyer to prosecute him. Tbis may cause other ne­ groes to attempt tbe same crime, feeling that they will be upheld. If the uegroes would seek to bring every member of their race who attempts to commit rape to swift and speedy justice, and tbe while people attempt to bring mob lead­ ers to similar justice, the outlook would be better. Now is the time to sub­ scribe (or The Record. Every Day A Holiday (Reidsville Review) Most persons ran either take their holidays or leave them alone. But perhaps in t^e not 100 distant future vou won’t have any choice in the matter—every dav may be a holiday No fooling, We now have New Yeai’s Day, Washington’s birth day, Memorial Day Independence Day, Labor Day. Armistice Day. Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day But congress is seriously consid­ ering proposals to establish these Memoria.ble holidays, among others: General Pulaski Memorial Day; Abrahan Lincoln birthday; Ameri­ can Indian Day; Good Friday; World War Two Victory Day; National Heart Week; Grand­ mother’s Day and a few others like that. If you add to these such occa sions Father’s Day, Mother’s Day, Eat-an apple Day, and and Nation al Straw Hat Day, it's possible a calender might be printed so com. pleteiy dedicated that dates would be unnecessary. Howevei, all the proponents of special days don’t ask for tbeir particular favorites to be declared oaiionai holidays. But some of ibem mty be approved as such, ad ding to the confusion. Huev Long once wrote about ‘‘Every Man A King.” No Con­ gress seems bent upon making making every day a holiday Mortgage Debt On Homes There is something to be learn­ ed from tbe report of tbe Federal Home Loan Bank Administration which discloses that American homes are carrying a $24.6 billion mortage debt, which is tbe largest in the history of the country. Tbe Administration points out that inflated prices for houses and G.

B ut seldom quoted are .. the w ords w hich appear beginning I% f w ith the third parag rap h of the first page of the Congressional R ecord. H ow ever tw ice recently they w ere quoted — a n d w idely. They w ere pre­ ceded by tw o first paragraphs which for the p a st 10 y ears have va­ ried only as to B ankhage 1116 ProPe r nam es and hour m en­ tioned therein:— “ The senate m et a t U o’clock a. m . on the expiration of the re­ cess.” “ The chaplain, R ev. P e te r M ar­ shall, D.

Forgive us, our F ath er, for taking our good things for granted, so th a t w e a re in dan­ ger of losing the fine a rt of ap­ preciation. W ith such dire need in every other p a rt of the w orld, m ake us so grateful for the bounties we enjoy th a t w e shall try , by Thy help, to deserve them m ore. W here w e a re w rong, m ake us w illing to change, and w here we a re right, m ake us easy to live w ith.” I repeated th a t la st p aragraph on m y broadcast because one of m y associates had called it to m y attend tion th a t m orning. Since then I have been getting letters from all over the country asking for copies of th a t prayer. E a rlier (though I had not noticed the item s) Tim e m agazine had carried a story about C haplain M arshall, and N ewsw eek m agazine had quoted p a rt of anoth­ er pray er: "H elp us to do our very best this day and be content w ith to­ day’s troubles, so th a t w e shall not borrow the troubles of to­ m orrow . Save us from the sin of w orrying, lest stom ach nlcers be the badge of our lack of faith. A m en.” I think m y choice is a fa ire r sam ­ ple of M arshalliana. B ut both se­ lections rev eal one ch aracteristic of the doctor’s utterances, w hich per­ haps is a reason for his popularity. H e is able to reduce religion to the sim plest and m ost understandable term s—his sim iles (like those of his T eacher) a re taken out of our daily life. P eter M arshall is an interesting person a s w ell as a popular preach­ er. Immigrtmi Boy FulfiUt Ambition D r. M arshall’s personal history is rem iniscent of early H oratio A lger. H e cam e to this country from a foreign land because he believed A m erica w as th e land of opportu­ nity. B ut his story is unique in this: H e cam e, not w ith th e dream of ‘m aking his fortune,” but to fulfill an am bition for neither w ealth nor pow er, but sim ply to get a theolog­ ical education. H e w as born in Coatsville in L an­ arkshire, Scotland. H is fath er died w hen he w as little, and M arshall w as raised by his m other and step­ father, who sent him to public school and la te r to a technical in­ stitution. On graduation, he took a position in a tube-m anufacturing concern. B ut he w anted to be a m inister, and he decided it would be easier to obtain an education for this call­ ing in the U nited S tates. H e cam e to this country in his early tw enties; found w ork in N ew Jersey , but soon had an opportunity to go to A labam a w here he joined th e business depart­ m ent of the B irm ingham N ew s. W ith the help of som e friends w ho be­ cam e interested in this pleasant Scottish boy w ith th e intriguing burr and the inspired goal, he w as able to enter Colum bia Theological sem ­ inary, from w hich he w as graduated in 1931. H e held tw o pastorates in Geor­ gia, and m ade the acquaintance of the young lady who is now his wife. In 1937, he w as called to the his­ toric “ Church of the P residents” in Washington, a church which has num bered am ong its w orshippers John Q uincy A dam s, A ndrew Jack ­ son,.W illiam H enry H arrison, Jam es B uchanan, A ndrew Johnson, M illard F illm ore, G rover Cleveland, Theo­ dore R ooseyelt and A braham Lin­ coln, w hose pew , left as it w as w hen he used it, is a shrine for tourists. D r. M arshall w as elected chaplain of the senate on Jan u ary 4 of this year, and it m ight be w ell to record a bit of recent history as a back­ ground to his selection. D r. Ze B arney Phillips w as chap­ lain of the senate for 15 years—from 1927 to 1942. W hen he died, m any senators had favorite candidates for his -job. They “ auditioned” them , ju st like radio announcers— although the m inisters didn’t know they w ere being auditioned, and no senator would adm it such a thing. F rom am ong the candidates, D r. F rederick Brow n H arris, M ethodist, em erged victorious, gossips say, be­ cause he delivered the shortest prayer. L ater on D r. H arris’ p rayers becam e longer, a com m on phenom enon am ong senate chap­ lains according to som e of the old tim ers in congress. W hat they don’t add is th a t in the speech-m akingest body in the country, the affliction m ay be contagious. T raditionally, filling of the chap­ lain’s post is a m ajority p arty pre­ rogative, and so w hen the R epub­ lican 80th congress convened, after disposing of the question of Senator The R ev. P e te r M arshall, D .D ., senate chaplain, offered a p ray er th a t probed deep into the con­ sciousness of the nation’s busy, harassed legislators. Bilbo’s qualifications, Senator W her­ ry arose to offer a resolution th a t D r. M arshall be elected chaplain, of the senate. B ut W herry’s proposal touched off an argum ent occupying nine close-typed colum ns in the Con­ gressional R ecord. (No chap­ lain would d are deliver a ser­ m on THAT long.) D em ocratic Sen. 'Alben B arldey m aintained th a t D r. H arris had done a fine job and should be retained. He added th a t politics should not be perm itted to touch the office of sen­ ate chaplain. H e opined th a t R e­ publicans w ere “ offering a very poor exam ple for the tim e w hen the D em ocrats resum e control of the body tw o y ears from now .” (1948— I?!) R epublican Senator B ridges w as shocked a t the im plication th a t poli­ tics m ight be involved. W hy, he protested, he didn’t even know D r. M arshall’s politics. B ut the R epublicans had their m ajority, D r. M arshall got Hie job, and as fa r as I can Ieafb, nobody has reg retted the choice. T here are som e W ashingtonians who have read and listened to this Scottish boy whom A m erica has aw arded for achievem ent in a call­ ing in w hich there a re often few earthly aw ards, who feel th a t his presence in the Lincoln church is quite as “ appropriate” as his ap­ pointm ent as chaplain of the senate. They feel th at if the ghost of the G reat E m ancipator ever slips into his old pew of a Sunday, he sm iles in approval of the sim ple, earthy truism s,* not too unlike his own, which com e down from one pulpit in th a t friendly Scottish burr, w ith the sam e terse im pact w ith which they echo from the rostrum of the senate.

N E W S R E V IE W S h i p p i n g C r i s i s I m p e n d s ; P r e d i c t H i g h F e e d P r i c e s F e a rs of a m inor crisis in railw ay shipping in m id-July have been ex­ pressed by federal transportation experts in view of an apparent slowdown in frieght c a r construc­ tion. C ontributing factbrs a re m ount­ ing industrial production coupled w ith increasingly heavy w heat ex­ p ort m ovem ents, and officials pre­ dict th a t the “ m inor crisis” could sw iftly develop into a m ajor tra n s­ portation block unless steps are taken to ease the traffic slowdown or prevent it from occurring. W ith fate of the now financially em barrassed Office of D efense T ransportation still undecided, the In terstate C om m erce com m ission has been requested to assum e full responsibility for continuing orders requiring full loading of boxcars in the event th a t congress does not ex­ tend the life of ODT beyond its June 30 expiration date. M eantim e, ODT has sent investi­ gators to freight car building com ­ panies to probe reports th a t allo­ cated steel tonnages have not gone entirely into the 10,000-a-month car constructidn program . R eports for the first half of M ay indicated th a t only 1,751 freight cars w ere built, 81 short of the num ­ ber constructed during the corre­ sponding period in A pril. Explanation offered by the c ar builders is th a t inadequate steel supplies and strikes w ithin the in­ dustry have been responsible for the grave decline in freight c ar con­ struction. T hat view , how ever, is discounted by federal officials who point out th a t the governm ent forced the steel industry to provide the necessary 200,000 tons of steel for the 10,000-a-month goal. FEED PRICES: To Stay Up Prospects for the 1947 feed crops w ill be an im portant influence on feed prices, according to a depart­ m ent of agriculture report. The very strong foreign dem and for grain is expected to continue to support prices through 1947 and into 1948; although if production of feed is as large as in recent years, feed prices probably w ill decline, a t least seasonally, in the la st half of 1947. Corn prices this sum m er, the re­ port predicted, will average higher than the June, 1946, ceilings, but low er than in the sum m er of 1946 after price controls lapsed. The departm ent’s survey w ent on to reveal th a t reports in early M ay indicated th at approxim ately 832 m illion bushels of 1946 corn would be m arketed this season. T hat fig­ ure would be 50 per cent g reater than the 1938-42 average and 14 p er cent above the previous record sales from the 1944 crop. F a rm sales of other feed grains from 1946 crops also ra n generally larger.

Kvasses*st-sw&Mi Serve Sjmply; Keep Cool (See recipe below.) Refreshing M eals j§ne of the biggest problems which tve homemakers will be facing these warm days is that of keeping cool and at the same time serving re­ freshing foods to the family. My own rules for keeping cool on these hot days include the following which you might find it helpful to adopt: Select foods which may be served chilled, or those which cook quickly; and another, choose foods that are colorful as they stimulate wilted ap­petites. Never choose foods which are fussy and that take long to pre­ pare. Mother can exert much bet­ ter influence at mealtime if she ap­ pears cool and collected, and this is possible only if she has used as many shortcuts as possible. For your main dish select food to be either broiled or chilled. Two raw vegetables in a salad are preferred to two cooked ones if you want to keep cool. And, as for dessert, tryice cream or fresh fruit ana ber­ ries, thus cutting preparation time to a minimum. M ajestic Salm on Loaf.

When set, fill mold with alternating layers of shredded cabbage and sliced eggs. Cover with remaining gelatin, chill until set. TJnmold on crisp lettuce; garnish with potato chips, sliced cucumbers and lemon. i These broiled lamb steaks don’t take long to cook, so they will be a boon to the hot weather home­ maker. The pota- toes may be cooked ahead of time (or use Ieft- overs) a n d broiled along with the meat to heat and become golden brown. Carrots are a colorful addition to the menu, and you may use the canned variety to save cooking time. Dress them up by melting butter and adding a small amount of mint jelly to it, and pour over the car­ rots before serving. B roiled L am b Steaks. (Serves 6) 6 shoulder lam b steaks, cut I inch thick 3 tablespoons olive oil 6 tablespoons lem on juice I m inced onion 1 I teaspoon salt Mix olive oil and lemon juice.

When one side is nicely browned, season with salt and pepper and turn. When second side is browned, season and serve im­ mediately. Allow 6 to 8 minutes for each side. LTNN SATSi Here are Tips For Picnics Fried chicken which may be eat­ en with the fingers is an excellent food for picnics. Wrap each piece individually in waxed paper, place light meat on one side of the bas­ ket, dark meat on the other side, and then dole it out. Meat loaf is another good main dish for picnics.

Good accompaniments for the fried chicken lunch: Pineapple cole slaw, small cherry tomatoes, pickles or olives, fruit salad made of large pieces of fruit, or ambrosia. Make hamburgers of a larger size when going on a picnic as appetites are bound to be big. To make cheeseburgers, take along some wrapped slices of American cheese, and when the “burgers” are al­ most done, place cheese on top and remove from fire just after it has melted.

THE TRAGIC END OF A NATION LESSON TEXT—n Kings 25:1-12. MEMORY SELECTION — Righteousness exalteth a nation; but sin Is a reproach to any people.—Proverbs 14:34. ■ The end of the road! Down, down, down went Judah in its sinful re­ fusal to keep God’s Word, and ulti­ mately came the final day of reck­ oning. It always does I The catas­ trophe which had long been ap­proaching had arrived at last. The fall of a capital, city, which carries with it the empire, is a world-shaking event. The fall of Rome shattered the world for a thousand years. The fall of Berlin and Tokyo are within the memory of all of us, and the results are seen in a disordered world. The destruction of Jerusalem, which our lesson presents, was even more serious; for it was not only a national tragedy, but also one with deep religious significance. The wicked king Jehoiakim -was succeeded by his son Jehoiachin, a mere boy who reigned only three months.. He gave way to Nebuchad­ nezzar, who appointed as his suc­ cessor his uncle Zeiiekiah. It is in the verses just preceding our lesson that We learn that Zede- kiah turned against Babylon in an act of I. Rebellion (v. I). Zedekiah igno'red his oath of alle­ giance (II Chron. 36:13), for which he was condemned by Ezekiel as a traitor (Ezek. 17:13-18). Zedekiah has well been called the vanishing point in a diminishing line of kings. It was an evil thing he did (II Kings 24:19), and one which showed his conceit, vanity and rashness. True it was that he only followed what he 'had learned from his pred­ ecessors, but that is never a good excuse for a man foolishly to turn against God’s will. Observe that God was not just a disinterested spectator, and yet he had come to the place where he let Judah go down to ,its own awful doom. The worst thing that can hap­ pen to a man or a nation is to be let alone by God! , ZedeKiah’s act -of folly quicKly brought I I . R e tr ib u tio n ' (w. 2 -1 0 ). . Jeremiah urged Zedekiah to sur­ render (see Jer. 37,38) in order to save Jerusalem and himself, but he refused, and the city was besieged. The king’s refusal to hear God’s prophet and his turning to Egypt for help speak to us of the manner in which unrepentant sinners reject God’s mercy and then seek help at the hopeless cisterns of this world (Jer. 2:13). The kingj tried to flee, but was taken captive. Then came the siege of Jerusalem. For one and one-half years the enemy gradually closed in, while famine and distress grew apace in the city. Jeremiah went through this entire period sharing his people’s trouble. The book of Lamentations is the record of this eyewitness. • Sin does its terrible work. Even as it can take ft great city and turn it into a plague spot marked by cruelty, suffering and death, even so it can bring forth its inevitable and unspeakable results in the life of the individual who persists in re­ sisting the voice of God. Note also that the sin of Zedekiah brought quick judgment, not only on himself, but upon his innocent children (v. 7), ai;d on many in the besieged city who were equally guiltless of wrongdoing. It is again a picture of what sin does'today in the homes and communities of our nation. III. Removal (vv. 11, 12). The fall of Jerusalem prepared the way for the closing scene of the immediate history of the nation as the people 'went into captivity. It also ended for the time being the history of the city that had once so proudly held a position of privilege and power, but was now brought down by its sin and rebellion against God. We say rightly that history re­ peats itself. We see that' any nation that lifts itself up in pride and for­ gets God wil} inevitably perish. We ask ourselves where our beloved country stands. As we -consider its debauchery and drunkenness, its disregard of moral standards, its indifference to'cthe things of God, we feel that instead of pointing a finger of scorn at Judah, we ought to be on our faces, before God in penitence and shame. Let us not assume that we hold a place, of favor with God, which exempts us from the certainty of judgment. Israel was his chosen, and they still are, for his promises of ultimate blessing to them have never been withdrawn. But their sin brought certain punishment, and the same,is true today not only of the natioA but of the individual. The Sunday school lessons will take up the history of Israel again at this- point in April, 1948, when we consider the captivity and the par­ tial return of the people to their land. Alo ng THE ROCKBOUND COAST . . . Mount Desert island, oft -Maine’s rocky coast, is the site of Acadia National park. Here angry waves * lash the barren rocks of Schoodic Head. HD C B R ItB OH SCEHEBY East, Too, Boasts Its Parks— Fonr Great Wilderness Areas WrNU Features. When national parks are mentioned, one thinks instinctive­ ly of the F ar West—the Rocky mountains, the High Sierras, fee southwestern deserts. Everyone has heard of Yellowstone park, with its geysers and boiling springs, Yosemite valley, with its incom parable w aterfalls and stupendous cliffs. The sm allest schoolboy can describe the titanic gorge known as G rand canyon. To m any people, however, it m ay be a revela­ tion to learn that the eastern half Q- of the United States contains four great wilderness parks comparable in interest with the national parks in the West. In North Carolina and Tennessee is located Great Smoky Mountains National National Parks Seventh In a Series park, 19 miles wide and 54 miles long. Shenandoah National park, with it s famous Skyline drive, is in Virginia, Acadia Nationa park in Maine and on an island in Lake Superior, ;not far from the Canadian shore- but in­ cluded in the territory of the State of Michigan, is Isle Royale National park. The eastern parks present a sharp contrast to the parks of the West. In the West the mountains are bald and bold, the outlines se­ vere and rugged.. In the eastern parks the mountains are older, worn down by eons of erosive forces, with contours smoother and gentler, although by no means lack­ ing in crags and cliffs. In the Weist the giant peaks pierce heights where trees no longer grow, while in the East the lush forests sweep over the highest summits. In the West one may find icy glaciers and snowfields in July, or at lower alti­ tudes brave shimmering deserts un­ der canopies of azure sky, but the East will be carpeted in green while overhead there WiU be lazy, cumulus clouds. . . . GREAT SMOKY Mountains park, a part of the ancient Appalachian range, straddles the North Caro- Iina-Tennessee border, and is the highest mountain mass east of the Black Hills of South Dakota. Within the park boundaries are 16 more peaks more than 6,000 feet high. About half the park, or approxi­ mately 200,000 acres, is in its origi­ nal forested condition, containing the most extensive stand of virgin red spruce and hardwoods in the entire country. From this lush vege­ tation, which extends from the val­ leys to the tops of the lofty peaks, there rises a tenuous mist, a deep blue haze, from which the moun­ tains get their name. There is a transmountain road from park headquarters at Gatlin- burg, Tenn., to Smokemont, N. C., and along this road one will see signs warning, “DO NOT FEED THE BEARS.” In the park are deer, bobcats, and many other wild animals which have long ago dis­ appeared from many sections of the East.* * * NORTHEASTWARD from the Great Smokies in Virginia lies Shenandoah National park, which includes a long section of the Blue Ridge mountains. To make this area accessible to visitors, a high­ way has been built along the crest of the mountains for the entire length of the park. This highway is known as Skyline drive and from it one may obtain breath-taking views of the fertile farmlands of Shenan­ doah valley and the Appalachian ranges to the west and of rolling foothills and the Piedmont plateau to the east. The two parks have much in com­ mon. In the spring and early sum­ ful flowering plants and shrubs, such as dogwood, flame azalea, mountain laurel and rhododendron. In the faU the foliage is splashed with brilliant colors. There is good trout fishing in both parks and many miles of foot trails to attract those who like to hike.* • ' * ACADIA NATIONAL park covers a large portion of Mount Desert is­ land off the rocky coast of Maine and is connected with the mainland by a bridge and a causeway. Part of the park lies also on the main­ land and on nearby Isle au Haut. Here the mountains rise abruptly from the sea, and one may ride or hike through the magnificent north­ ern woods or bask in the sun while watching the ships far out on the blue Atlantic. Mount Desert island is dotted with quaint fishing and re­ sort villages and there are sea bath­ ing, fishing, and boating.. . . ISLE ROYALE National park, long a haunt of moose and caribou known only to fishermen and to the Indians of the Great Lakes region, is a real wilderness. There are no motor roads on the island, and one must travel on foot, by horse or boat. Actually an archipelago con­ sisting of one large island and nearly 200 small islands, it is a fisherman’s and boatman’s para­ dise. The islands are densely wooded and contain many rare va­ rieties of plants and ferns. To reach the park one takes a boat from Houghton, Mich., a journey of sev- erel hours across LaJce Superior, or from Grand Marais, Minn.* . * ROCK HARBOR lodge, on Isle Royale1 is open from June 15 to September 15. There are no over­ night accomodations in Acadia Na­ tional park, but the Publicity Office, Bar Harbor, Me., will recommend hotels and lodging houses in the many villages on Mount Desert is­ land. Likewise the Chamber of Commerce at Gatlinburg, Tenn., will furnish a list of hotels and tourist camps in the small towns bordering Great Smoky Mountains National park. Along the Skyline drive in Shenandoah National park from May to November hotels and cottages are operated. In aU four of these wilderness parks, National Park service maintains Cree camp­ sites, which may be used by all who bring their own equipment. And in all four parks one will find the fa­ miliar ranger - naturalists waiting and eager to answer all questions. -v ■ VIRGIN TIMBER . ..

I O l d I n d i a n L o o k o a l R e b a i I I a s M o n u m e n t FORT SILL, OKLA.—Intended as another monument to the Old West, a blockhouse used during the' last century as a warning station at Fort Sill, which survived the Indian wars but was damaged by an artil­ lery shell in the last war, is being rebuilt. With its commanding view for 60 miles across the plains of south­ western Oklahoma, the blockhouse was used to alert Fort Sill to ma­ rauding Indian bands. The fort received a special com­ mendation by Gen. William T. Sher­ man of Civil war fame. Sherman once paid a visit to the fort and his party was spotted while it was still 30 miles away. After surviving the hectic days of the Old West, Uie blockhouse was damaged when it was struck by a stray shell during maneuvers in 1942. O r a n b m a S P E A m 1. . .

Reminds us of the good old days when Cole Blease was Governor of South Carolina. During his first term he pardoned enough convicts to re-elect him when he ran the second time. The voters o f Mecklenburg County marched to the polls on June 14th, and voted for liquor stores by a majority of over 3,500 votes. W e are glad that at least two counties lies between Davie and Mecklenburg county. Con­ ditions have been bad in Mecklen- burg and they will no doubt be worse when the liquor stores are opened. W hen the ediror of The Re­ cord arrived in Mocksville in Sep­ tember, 1900, 47 years ago, die mail was being hauled from the depot to the postoffice, a distance of a third of a mile, in a hack. At that time thete was no such thing in Davie as an automobile or truck. Today the mail is still being trans­ ported from the depot to the post- office in a horse-drawn wagon. We would respectfully ask the City Fathers, the Merchant’s As- sociation, The Rotary Club and all of our business men to get their heads together and try to figure out a way to improve this 50-year- old mode of transporting mail.

Rich* ard, disappeared In Iforld War I, IaUs In love with Spang Gordon, a young lieutenant. He tells her that her broth* er, Rict Is seeing a divorcee and she goes to camp to investigate. Itic avoids her but she later sees him with Sandra Calvert, an older, hardened woman. Captain Maekeyf known as "Old Cyan* lde,” tells her he knew her mother many years ago. She (eels she has met him before. Spang calls to say good­ bye. Later, while riding with Dave Pat* terson, a family friend who has always secretly loved her mother, Julia, IiU startles him by asking, “Why don’t you marry my mother?*' Dave speaks of her father. CHAPTER IX Dave gathered up the reins. “I know, JiU. But there’s nothing I can do. Nothing I can say." “But—it’s so stupid! With a world full of unhappy heartbroken people, people who can’t help themselves, who can’t change things, why should people make themselves un­ happy uselessly? When it doesn’t make sense?” Dave looked at her then. “Do you think Dooley is unhappy, Jill?” “I don’t think she has ever been ■really happy. And she’s so alone, somehow. Even with Grandfather and me around, and Mamie sputter­ ing in the kitchen, and Ric to worry ✓ about, she’s still so shut in, some­ how, so separate and remote. Cas­ ual things she can share, but real things—the things that matter— never. So I don’t even know if she cares about you, Dave. I’m just the fool, rushing in.” Then Dave said, “I do love your mother, Jill. You've seen that so there’s no use evading. But I can't talk to her about it, not with the barriers standing that she sets up and defends as she does.” “I know. She retires behind that aloof wall and smiles at you across it, but you can’t touch her. And if you present any argument she lev­ els you with that gentle kind of con­ demnation. She does that to me. It affronts her that other people don’t share her mistaken loyalty. My father has always been some­ thing splendid in my life, but I can’t put him, like a pillar of cloud, be- the way Dooley does. I know that he wouldn’t want that sort of loyal­ ty. He was a human person,' def- initely, Irom tlie lew tilings m \ Grandfather has let slip when he’s angry at Ric. He liked living, and he wouldn’t be happy to know that anybody took the veil on his ac­ count.” “Yes, he liked living,” Dave said, “aid he did a lot of it in the few years that he had. He was a very handsome boy. He had that classic face, like Ric’s, but he had blue eyes, with a cool direct look.” “I know. I’ve got the picture of him. And a sort of laughing mouth.” “Amused,” Dave helped her out, though the word that had first flashed into his mind was “mock­ ing.” “He was a lot like Ric. He’d never been disciplined, he had a restlessness that kept him on the move, he.. . Dave stopped, em­ barrassed, feeling that he had- said too much, Por Jill's face had changed, odd­ ly. It was as if something had come to her, something only half­ guessed before, something she had felt and feared a little, and put away, hanging flags and decorations to hide the sore place where it had eaten. She said, abruptly, “Let’s go back. I’m chilly.” Dave said, “Cold—in' this sun?” "Mamie would say a goose was eating grass on my grave—just one of those shuddery things!” Jill tried to laugh. But inside she was cold and quak­ ing. Inside somehow, now, she knew. About her father. All the things that had never been said, all the things that her mother had; guarded, even in her thoughts when her children were present. Her fa­ ther had been like Ric. Not a com­ fort, not some one to lean on, some one to be proud of, but a heart- strain, an unsolved riddle, a bewil­ dering and uncertain element in the chemistry of her mother’s life. A Realization Leads to Accident i, Suddenly she knew that the look she had glimpsed in Julia’s eyes- whenever she looked at that pic­ ture that Jill kept like a shrine, was not really love. Not the quivering, reaching, aching kind of love that she herself had for Spang. It was different, withdrawn somehow, holding' something back, remem­ bering too much. Things that had never been told, that never, she knew, would be told. She whacked the mare suddenly with the reins, jerked her head up, pulled her about sharply^ The startled animal floundered, Ibst her footing, jumped and scrambled to regain it, and Dave yelled warn- ingly and hurled his horse ^head, but too late. Jill went twisting from the saddle and landed on her shoulder in the rocky rubble of the lane, -her bright hair flying, her arm crumpled un­ der her. The mare jumped again, clearing Jill’s legs, and then stood still, shivering. Dave jumped down, cried, ‘Jill!” sharply, but Jill’s half-open eyes were senseless and glazed. He did not lift her. He shouted at the mare till she trotted bewil­ dered aside, and then he eased Jill’s legs straight and picked a wild grape bough and bent it over her to keep the sun from her eyes. Then, tying the mare to the fence, he jumped back to his horse and went pounding down the rocky hill to the red roofs of Buzzard's Hill. JiU opened her eyes and sneezed and tried to push the tickling branch off her face, but oddly her left arm would not work. She began to cry in a childish way, tears running down her temples and making wet spots on the earth. The mare lifted her head and nick­ ered, shrilling a summons. Wheels were coming up the lane, an engine labored on the slope, and there were voices. Jill lifted her head painfully and looked into her grandfather’s frightened face. John I. had no collar on and partly wiped- off lather was drying on his half­ shaven whiskers. I Hie startled animal floundered, lost her footing, jumped and scram­ bled to regain it. "You look funny,” JiU said hoarsely. The dim blur of her mother's face was close then, very white, her eyes big and terrified. “Where does it hurt, darling?” “My arm,” Jill gasped and lay back again. “It’s gone!” “It isn’t gone. It’s broken, I think." “Don’t lift her. Lie still, Jill.” Dave's voice cut through the fog­ gy morass of pain that was press­ ing Jill down. “Keep the sun off her face, Dooley. We’ll net some kind of stretcher.” "There’s an army cot. Oo with Dave, John I.—you know where it is. And telephone the doctor.” “Oh, Dooley, I don’t want to be sick! I don’t want to be hurt and all crippled up!” Jill wailed. “I can get up. You help me.” “No, don’t move, Jill. Lie per­ fectly still till we can have some X-rays — till we know whether there’s any other injury or not.” “If y^u mean, is my back broken, it isn’t. I can move my legs and everything—see? It’s just this arm, dam it!” “I know, baby. It’s a rotten shame, but we’ll get you fixed up quickly. Here they come now.” The station-wagon- roared back njp, and the two men got down, Dave in one leap and Jolm I. back­ ing out stiffly. They unfolded the army cot, and awkwardly lifted Jill onto it. “You can’t lift her that high, John I. Let me,” Julia ordered. Tugging and panting they pushed the cot-into the rear of the station- wagon finally, and Jill relaxed and giggled, a little, wagging her boots in their, faces. “You’d get zero on an ambu­ lance crew, you two,” she said. And then she turned her face away and closed her eyes.” Richard Returns From the Dead A little glow sustained Jill through the rest of that awful day. Through the jolting ride to town and the an­ guish of being lifted onto that stony table, through the torture of splints and the side confusion of hypoder­ mics. She lay in a high hospital bed and decided in a druggy, dazed lassitude that though this was purga­ tory, at least she had made things right for Dave and Dooley. She did not know, because they never told her, about the car that rolled under the porte-cochere at Buzzard’s Hill that ,night. She did not see her mother’s startled face when she opened the screen door and saw a tall officer standing there with silver bars on his shoul­ der and the blue and silver of the air corps on his sleeve, a man with cool, mocking blue eyes and sil­ vered temples. She did not see Julia McFarlane’s stunned and stricken look as this stranger smiled at her and said, “Hello, Dooiey!” They stared at each other for a long minute, and then Julia gave a choked little cry. “Richard!” Old John I., who had been asleep in his chair, worn out by the strain and excitement of the day, closed his sagging mouth and blinked and said, “What say? Who is it?” Julia drew back as the officer ad­ vanced into the room. “It’s Richard!” Her voice was a hoarse, strangled . breath. “It’s Richard—come home!” The old man jumped to his feet and glared. “Hello, Father,” Richard McFar- Iane said coolly. “So it’s you, is it?” John I.’s stare was hostile. “It’s you—after twenty-five years! What do you want?” “Don’t, John I.!” Julia protest­ ed. She said, a trifle flatly, “Come in, Richard.” But she did not hold out her hand. s “Nice to see you again, Dooley! Surprised?” Julia’s astonished confusion chilled to a controlled calm. She stood still, poised, stony, not feel­ ing anything at all. “Naturally, Richard. Having mourned you for years as one nobly dead, naturally I’m surprised. Will you sit down?” He took the chair she indicated and eased the creases of his smart gabardine slacks, with the old cas­ ual gesture that she remembered. John I. did not sit down. His white mustache was quivering like the antennae of an angry insect. His eyes snapped fire. “And to what extraordinary cir­ cumstances are we indebted for the honor of this sudden visit?” he de­ manded. “Please—” Julia stayed the old man’s fury with a pleading hand. “Richard has come home. Sit down,John I. You’re Shaking all over, I o i p l u t t l MtW!'' “Not now, thank you, Dooley. Why don't you sit down yotirself?" She would not collapse into the chair. Slie let IierseK Hon care- fully, a bit stiffly, feeling suddenly as though her body had turned to wood, as though her voice was something mechanical, grinding out words. “So—you didn’t want to come back, Richard? All these years— twenty-five years—you’ve let us go on, with nothing but silence, noth­ ing but emptiness—because you wanted it that way?" “He didn’t dare come back!” barked John I. “I suppose, you’ve just found out, sir, that I’d cleared up all that mess in Washington? It would have been outlawed anyway, but I paid it all off—every penny.” “Was there something that had to be paid off?” Richard asked coolly, not stirred, not troubled apparent­ ly by the electric currents that spar­ kled around them in that room. “This is the first I’ve heard of it.” Old John I. snarled, “Ahh-h-h!” but Julia quieted him again with a gentle gesture. “Sit down, please, John I. We can talk this over quietly, don’t you think? We can listen to. whatever Richard has to say.” When Loyalty Tumbled Doivn “What can he say—‘now? Twenty- five years late?” demanded the old man. He would not; sit down. Hfe stood facing them;' bristling all over, like a small, gray furious dog, Julia thought with, a small comer of her mind. I “There’s really nothing to say,” Richard began blandly, lighting a cigarette, looking around for an ash tray and finding none, twisting the burnt match in his fingers. “I discovered that I missed you all. I was passing this way on a military mission—so I came home.” “No amnesia? No wandering around Europe for years, not know­ ing who you were? You just came home!” John I. was bitter. Julia’s face was as pale as death. This was a death—something dying in her, an ember dying, a spark sinking into nothingness, the spark she had tended so long, so stubborn­ ly, knowing all the while that it was doomed to the dry aridness of ashes, but refusing to give up. That was what hurt. Remembering that foolish loyalty, that tower, she had built of air and dreams and decep­ tive memory—that tower.built of nothing upon nothing! “No, I haven’t even a dramatic story,” Richard said. “I wasn’t wounded. I wasn’t even scratched. I got a little sick of the war after lying around a muddy trench for seventy days, so I went to Paris. I stayed too long, and explanations would have been awkwaid, and then suddenly the war ended, so I didn’t go back.” “We traced you that far,” Julia said. “Your father went to Paris in twenty-one and spent two months in France—” “And two thousand dollars!” the old man put in. <10 BE CONTINUED) NEEDLEWORK PATTERNS1 G a y F r u it C r o s s S titc h D e s ig n s M ffled D o ily fo r S u m m c S M ^ r k m m m m n o M o Pattern No. 5478 Pattern No. 5486 /"^NE of the handsomest sets of summer tea towels you’ll see.

Athasat Clear the Decks i During a recent trip to the nation’s eapitol, I found the air filled with talk of reducing the budget. Many legislators are now becoming econ­ omy conscious. However, one item of the budget—national defense—has been given a respectable detour by !many Congressmen. Although its proposed $12.7 billions represents al­ most one-third of the 1948 budget, most legislators seem content to economize only on the other two- thirds. National defense has been given a "halo” of untouchability. Current thought trends believe that any re­ duction of defense appropriations would cripple our military and naval potential. John Q. Public will glad­ly pay through the nose to avoid the unpreparedness experienced in the early stages of World War n. Estimates of defense cost by the military forces are accepted with- , out question. Waste Hangover However, there is every Indica­ tion that wartime waste and extrava­ gances still exist in peacetime oper­ation of the armed forces. During the war the over-all annual cost for each fighting man was $6960. This included everything consumed to combat—ships, guns, planes and ammunition. The proposed budget calls for an annual average of $6790 per man in uniform. Only $170 less for the peacetime soldier than when he was maintained in a round-the- world conflict. In January, 1947—the third year of peace—the Army and Navy had 1,006,577 civilian employees. Two civilians for every three soldiers. During World War n there were two civilian employees for every fifteen soldiers — this during the mosl wasteful war In all history. The civilian employees represent a year­ ly outlay of $3 billion. There should be no room in an eRicient fighting force for a costly “bureaucracy. Excess Baggage No sane admiral or general would take his force into battle without making it as efficient as possible un­ der existing conditions. Confusion and inefficiency within his own ranks are more deadly than any enemy. He must clear his decks of anything which will get in the way and keep the guns from firing smoothly. We must now use the same technique in peacetime to fight financial sui­ cide. The armed forces have everything to gain' in pruning away their dead- wood. The result will be a more efficient and effective defense force. Also, this will promote the confidence of a public that knows its tax money is being wisely spent. A future forced cut might come at a time to really cripple defense operations. Fighting Weight It is not a matter of cutting ap­ propriations that would result in a weakened Army and Navy. TJhe re­ verse is actually true. First, efficien­ cy must be created within the op­ erations themselves. Then the path Is open for expenditures more in line with sane economy. Efficiency of operation, public confidence, and sensible financing all depend upon each other. None can stand alone. This is one of the first steps in bringing our wayward economy back to earth. In our zeal to spend recklessly for national protection, we should acknowledge the presence ol more than one type of enemy. It is sure folly to pour an endless stream of money into a wasteful ma­ chine to protect ourselves from an outside aggressor, only to result to financial chaos within our own borders. A good deal of economiz­ ing can be done within the services without crippling our defense. U n c l e S a m S a y s 1 9 5 7 . Someday you’ll be flipping away the calendar for 1956 !

Tftmrt Departmm READ THE AD$ Along With the Newp T h e P r e s id e n t o f t h e U n it e d ST A T E sswT h e problem of loweringr the highray death rate remains one of the nation’s most serious problems. It is an appalling fact that 33,500 American citizens were killed in automobile accidents in 1946. I therefore call upon every State and every community in the land to work unceasingly through 1947 to promote highway safety. tcLaws and regulations will be of little avail unless the individual driver holds himself strictly accountable to his own conscience.” ♦ ♦ ♦ That call is to y o u p e r s o n a lly to cooperate as a citizen of the United States in helping reduce highway accidents. It is a shameful record when in one year 33,500 lives are sacrificed; 1,150,000 persons are injured and $750,000,000 in property destroyed, resulting in an economic cost to the nation of $2,000,000,000 because of careless, reckless driving. It is a national problem, but essentially the solution is in j^our hands- Drive safely—live and let live!
