W. k\ Iseahoor. Hltb Point, N. G R4 I saw a walking corpse today— Indeed a gruesome sight - But when I’ve said what I shall say You’ll know that I am right; For lots of men are almost dead While going on their feet, Altho they’re not confined to bed. And still can drink and eat. This walking corpse I’m speaking of Is quite a moral wreck, Wbo has no courage to resolve To leave life’s sinking deck; But stays on board the devil’s ship That plows sin’s ocean deep, Tbattakes men on along, longtrip To ever monrn and weep.. The man has sown across the years A crop of bad. wild oats. And seems to have but little fears _ Of what in life be totes, Altho he’s robbed himself of health That all men should desire, Of manhood’s purity and wealth For which men should aspire. This walking corpse has sapped his strength With cigarettes and beer, And seemingly has gone his length To find a lot of cheer, By drinking wine and liquor too, And taking lots of dope, And soon may run his race clear through Without a ray of hope.- He’s violated God’s good laws By other habits bad, And failed to honor His great cause. Which is indeed quite sad; So let me sound a warning note To all who live in siu: Don’t drift along in Satan's boat If you desire to win. “Purge” Flopped On the same day Harold Stassen stole the show In Nebraska, there was also a primary election in IHi nois which got scant notice in the press, being overshadowed by the seven-ring circus In the former State But it was a very signifi cant event. In Illinois, fifteen Republican Congressmen offered for renomiu- ation. Of these, seven were unop posed, while of the other eight all bnt one were marked for defeat by CIO and AFL labor coalition be cause they had voted for the Taft Hartley labor act. Illinois is an industrial State, strongly organized, and if organi zed labor could be expected to wield strong political influence anywhere, this would be the place. In line with their announced In. tention to purge every Senator and Congressman who had voted for the Taft-Hartley measure, the Po Iltical Action Committee of the CIO b eked and tortlfied by Amer’ ican Federation of Labor leaders had rolled up their sleeves and gone into action weeks beforehand. There were rallies and exhortations, the air resounding with bitter de nunciations of the "traitors” who had supported this "slave-labor” law. There were pamphlets and teaflets and circulars, there was house-to-house' canvassing, and neighborhood pep meetings to rouse the voters. No bet was overlooked to teach these candidates a lesson, the lesson being that they had bet. ter-take their orders trom organ ized labor or else. What happened? All seven of the men marked for defeat came out victorious, and by handsome majorities. The purge was a dis mal flop. Which seems to indicate that the new labor law won’t be much of an issue In the November elec. tlons, and also that the rank and file of workers are not at all dis satisfied with its provisions —Sta tesville Daily. DoYouRead The Record? Real Caution 'TViE newspaper editor was in- * structing the cub reporter in im portant details of his calling. “Never state as a fact any thing you are not absolutely sure about," said the editor. "To avoid putting the paper in the position of stating something which it may not be able to prove, you should always use the words ‘alleged,’ ‘claim ed,’ ‘reputed,’ ‘rum ored’ and so on, un less you know positively that every thing is true as stated.” The cub was sent out to get so ciety items, and soon thereafter the following paragraph appeared in the society column: “ It is rumored that a bridge party was given yesterday by a number of reputed ladies. Mrs. Smith, it is said, was hostess. The guests, is is al leged, with the exception of Mrs. Brown, who says that she comes from Illinois, were all local people. Mrs. Smith claims to be the wife of Alexander Smith, who is rumo ed to be doing a thriving business in town.” WELL SEASONED The lieutenant received a com plaint about the issue of bread. “Sol diers should not make a fuss about trivialities,” he said. “If Napoleon had had that bread when he was crossing the Alps he’d have eaten it with delight.” “Yes, sir,” said the corporal, “but it was fresh then.” Disposal Room An actor came into a little money and bought six acres of land to plant his long-coveted fruit orchard. Painstakingly, he planted one acre of peach trees, then skipped an acre; an acre of plum trees, then skipped another acre; an acre of cherry trees, and left another acre empty. A neighbor came along as he fin ished, and remarked: “I don’t mean to be nosey, but I’m curious to know why you left so much empty ground between your fruit trees?” “Well, I gotta have some place to throw the pits, don’t I?” Money to Spare T he‘tramp looked worried as he entered the doctor’s office. "Doctor,” he said, “you’ve got to help me. I swallowed a half dollar about 15 years ago.” "Good heavens, m an!” exclaimed Hie doctor. "Why have you waited 15 years? Why didn’t you go to a doctor the day you swallowed the coin?” “To tell the truth,” replied the tramp, “I didn’t need the money at the time.” ON THE WAY DOWN Mountain Guide-Be careful not to fall here—it’s very dangerous.

'Trained Bees' Make Honey in Six Flavors InYentoi Got Idea Watching the Insects at Flower Show. CORNING, CALIF. - E. C. Close, a beekeeper, has applied for a pat ent on a process to produce honey in six different colors and flavors. He said that through the process his bees turn out honey in straw berry, maple, chocolate, lemon, pineapple and mint flavors, each of them appioprintely colored. Close got the idea two years ago when exhibiting some of his bees at a flower show The bees were in a glass hive and had to be fed a syrup of sugar and water. It occurred to Close he might col or and flavor the syrup and get col ored and flavored honey, so he went to work with his bees. Now he keeps them in electrically heated glass hives, the tem perature con trolled by a therm ostat. The syrup is in a glass container, from which it trickles into a trough for the bees. Along with the syrup the bees are fed pollen in a “special mix” which Close says is the real secret of the colored honey. Food coloring is added to the syr up to get the right colors for the flavors of strawberry, mint, lemon and pineapple. The chocolate and m aple flavors need no additional col oring. Seminole Leader Wants To Make Peace With U. S. MIAMI, FLA. — New York has convinced a Seminole Indian leader that his little tribe in the Florida Everglades should make peace with the United States. The Seminoles fought a war with the pale faces more than a century ago. The conflict ended when the Indians withdrew into the Everglades, where ever since they have done all possible to ignore the white man. That attitude apparently had changed when Billy Osceola, tribal elder and member of. the ruling council, returned to Miami after a trip to New York. Billy said: “White man heap change. I see Empire State building, radio, television. Great Overseer give white man big knowledge. I hope red man too will share great work. Now I ask Seminoles if want peace with United States. All Seminoles answer, then may be make peace treaty.” AU Britons Will Be Trained Against Atom Attack by Air LONDON.—Every adult and child in Britain will be trained for self protection against air attack in the atomic age under a government plan to reorganize the civil defense service. A highly mobile, full time force will be available on short notice for duty in any part of the country to augment civilian groups. The new civil defense service, to be planned by a joint staff, was dis closed in a home office memoran dum which said: “After a major attack on a large center of population, the task of civil defense will be so onerous that every able bodied man and woman will be required to make some con tribution to the measures of relief and restoration.” A white paper said that 1,027,000 of the 56 million acres of land in Britain would be retained for use by the navy, army and royal air force, and for military research and train ing. More than half the area will be used for rifle ranges, battle foam ing grounds, tank maneuvers and army camps. Snbmarine Stays Under Water Several Weeks in First Test LONDON.—A British submarine has remained submerged for “sev eral weeks,” then surfaced under her own power with her full crew of seven officers and 60 men in good health, the admiralty said. Two to three days was the previ ous limit of submersion. A succinct British admiralty an nouncement reported that H. M. sub marine Alliance, with a displace ment of 1,250 tons, had returned to its base at Portsmouth after a cruise in the tropical waters off Sierra Leone, Africa, “to test living conditions aboard a submarine dur ing prolonged dives in tropical wa ters.” An admiralty spokesman con firmed that the submarine—one of Britain’s latest types — had re mained submerged for several weeks but declined to disclose any details.

Our County And Social Security By Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager A s has been stated in this column, Oid Age'and Survivors Insurance is based on wages. Therefore, there is a close tie between businessmen and our Bureau. We rely on the employer to file the necessary tax returns; to get the correct name and social security account numbers ot all employees when they begin work U e also enlist their cooperation in notifying us when a worker over 65 retires or when a worker dies of any age. The name of persons us ed in the following paragraphs are net their real names. Recently. I talked with Mr. Jones of the X—Manufacturing Com pany, who had written that Tom Smith, an employee, bad died. I wanted information about his work and family. Mr. Jones said Tom was only 26; had a wife and three small children, who needed their mother’s care; and hoped we would be able to help them enough to al low them to stay together. Mr. Jones is one of the many employers who have the welfare of their em ployees at heart. I told him so, and he replied that a large per. centage of present day businessmen have come to realize that the sue cess or failure of their business of ten depends on the mental attitude of their employees; and that wat one reason why no one had to sell him on Social Security. In our conversation, he said an- other way the Social Security pro gram affects his business is by releasing it from the necessity of a make-work program. To illustrate he told me of Fred Dickson. Fred had been with him for over 30 years and like most he couldn’t put away enough to allow him to retire. He was over 65, 'not able to do the heavy lifting his job re quired, but Mr. Jones would not dismiss him for be had been with him too long for that kind of treat ment. So, before Old Age and Survivors Insurance came, he made a light job for Fred. Now, Fred has stopped work, has his home; and with old-age benefits plus his small savings will probaoiy Uve longer than under the old plan. I asked Mr. Jones if he thought workers realize the value of the cheap protection they get from Old Age and Survivors Insurance. He replied that the regular settled type does but that the young fel low who goes from job to job still needs some educating. He said that some are not interested enough to give him their social security numbers and, because of this, he bad a hard and fast rule that no one can start work with him unless be has his number. I welcomed these interesting side lights on the correlation of business and Social Security from a representative em ployer. THE DAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE, N. C. Senator Taft’s Strategy OEN. ROBERT TAFT, worried about his poor showing in the presidential polls, has been consult ing with professional opinion re searchers. Their advice has been that he become known as a “lib eral.” One of Taft’s advisers is Dr. Claude E. Robinson of Princeton, N. J., president of Opinion R aearch corporation, who has collected opin ions on Taft from all over the coun try. “You are so busy with the prac tical side of government,” he told the senator, “that you have lost sight of the fact that people think in terms of goals. You should start letting people know that you are on the side of the Lord.” He suggested that Taft reveal himself in his “true role” as a liberal and stress his stand for the public good; that he start by ex amining the question of what is a liberal and defining it as one who believes in liberty and higher liv ing standards. The strategy then is to show that Taft possesses the practical sense to achieve these goals. Dr. Robinson warned that the pub lic still is fearful that the Repub lican party represents "reaction and the vested interests.” He quoted a typical opinion from his surveys — that “no poor man should be a Re publican." The best way to combat this, he recommended, is to set up goals and catch the eye of the com mon man. Taft could bid for leader ship of the true “revolutionary” movement — the revolution which started July 4, 1776, advised Dr. Robinson. It was shortly after consulting with Dr. Robinson that Taft came out with his political “new look,” starting off with a speech, “What Is a Liberal?”* * * CIO Will Draft Eisenhower TtYO POLITICAL PHENOMENA are taking place simultaneously in the nation. President Truman is moving heaven and earth to secure his own renomination, but with his Gallup poll rating continuing to drop. Meanwhile, General Eisen- hower continues to discourage his nomination, but with his popularity cohtinuing to increase. A lot of interesting backstage figures are behind Eisenhower, one of them being CIO President Philip Murray. Murray has sent out word to every CIO steelwork ers local suggesting resolutions for a “draft Eisenhower” movement. The steelworkers convention will go on record unanimously asking Eisenltowcr to run, and a similar movement already is under way In most other CIO unions. Murray also held an important secret conference in Pittsburgh with Illinois Democratic Boss Jack Ar- vey. Arvey has been drafted by Illinois Democrats to run their po litical fortunes until after the presi dential elections, and he agreed with Murray that the Democratic party’s hope lay in nominating Eisenhower. Although not talking much, Arvey has been a very busy beaver. He was principally responsible for the violent anti-Truman demonstration at the California Jefferson Day din ner when Mrr Truman was booed so vigorously that Chairman J. How ard McGrath almost quit talking. Also active in the draft-Eisenhow- er drive is former Roosevelt labor adviser, Anna Rosenberg. Mrs. Rosenberg is a close friend of Eisen hower, also of Phil Murray, George Allen, Mrs. Roosevelt, the Rockefel lers, as well as many of the ex-New Dealers. Eisenhower’s supporters are ignor ing all of the general’s protests about his candidacy. They’re con vinced that if a genuine draft move ment develops, he will accept the nomination.• * * Sullivan’s Resignation RESIGNATION OF GAEL SUL LIVAN from the Democratic na tional committee was inevitable. Only a few insiders knew it, but Mr. Truman hated him, barred him from the White House. Sullivan always was getting in the President’s hair, fighting on Palestine, for labor, against car tels. His departure means he thinks the fight on these things' is hopeless. Sullivan worked day and night for the administration, led the life of a monk socially, studied like a school boy to make government wheels turn more smoothly. He was an FDR favorite, being forced on Mr. Truman by Bob Hannegan. It has never been a secret that Sullivan was a Justice Douglas man. When named assistant postmaster general, he even insisted that Justice Doug las swear him in. When the Ed Pauley grain-specu- ulation investigation started, Mr. Truman called Sullivan to the White House, asked him if he was in the market. “Mr. President,” replied Sulli van, “you flatter me. I’ve never had a dime besides my salary since I’ve been in politics.” WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS In their reply the Soviets con trasted what they termed military threats against the Soviet Union with the Russian government’s pur suit of “a consistent peace policy.” At least there was a definition of terms and a preliminary agree ment to talk things over. Whether or not any good would come of it was, at this stage, problematical. There was a suspicion abroad that Russia, balked in its ambitions to expand into western Europe by the European recovery program, might be ready now to try to make some kind of deal. ALL ABOARD: Trains Run U. S. economy escaped being a victim of railroad paraplegia at the eleventh hour when three rail broth erhoods yielded to a restraining order brought against them by the government and called off their im pending strike. Events leading up to that climax had run a course which has become familiar to strike-weary Americans. Negotiations between the railroads and the three dissenting brother hoods — engineers, firemen, and switchmen—had been fruitless. As the strike deadline approached they remained miles away from any kind of agreement on wages and working conditions. By that time President Truman had built up a full head of steam and he opened the throttle wide. Acting under the sanction of a 1916. law which authorizes the govern ment to take over the railroads dur ing the time of war (U. S. is still, officially, in a state of wartime emergency) Mr. Truman seized the entire vast network of tracks and trains in the name of the federal government. That move paved the way for a court order restraining the unions from striking for eight days. Fed eral District Judge T. Alan Golds- borough issued the order and the nation’s trains kept running, for the time being, at least. Possibly proving that there is no wind so ill that it doesn’t blow up some good for somebody, one of the major influences leading to cancella tion of the rail strike was John L. Lewis, who didn’t have a word to say about it. But Lewis had set the pattern. The Eastern Hotspot Soviets Express Desire for Peace, Agree to Discussion of Differences; II. S. Seizes R ailroads-Strike Off ___________By Bill Schoentgen, WNU Staff Writer____________ (EDITOR’S NOTE: Wlien opinions are expressed In these columns, they are those otW estern Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not necessarily ot this newspaper.) OVERTURE: Peaceful All of a sudden the air between Washington and Moscow was filled with talk of peace and .desire for co operation. Exactly what had happened to bring about the quick flow of "the milk of human kindness between the U. S. and Russia was not clear. Certainly there had occurred no basic change in the potentially ex plosive relationship. It began with a U. S. statement of position, voiced by Bedell Smith, ambassador to Russia, In the pres ence of Soviet Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov. Smith, apparently speaking offi cially, suggested that the way is clear for a discussion of differences with Russia. Said the U. S. am bassador: “The present state of U. S.-Soviet relations is a source of grievous disappointment to the American people. As far as the United States is concerned, the door is always wide open for full discussion and the composing of our differences.” Russia’s reply, as broadcast by the Moscow radio, expressed a positive attitude toward improving Soviet- American relations and stated that Russia “is in agreement” with a U. S. proposal for “discussion and settlement of existing differences.” Although these developments re ceived a big play in the press and radio of both nations, indications were strong that the aura of mutual hostility separating the U. S. and Russia might not be dispelled by the willingness to "compose our differ ences.” Neither side had modified its for eign policy. Rather, each had em phasized it in the exchange of notes. The U. S. statement said, in part: “The concern and the determination of the people of the United States have been intensified by the inexpli cable hostility of the Soviet govern ment to the European recovery pro gram—a measure which in its in ception and subsequent develop ments is so obviously only a meas ure of American assistance for re construction on a co-operative basis without menace or threat to ahy- SEA OF stout Latest area to emerge as a pivotal point in the world-wide drive against communism is south ern Horea where about seven mil lion registered voters went to the polls to elect 200 representatives to what is known as the Korean national assembly. Prior to the election, Commnnist - trained agents were reported to have been attempting to stir up trouble in the U. S. zone to influence the bal loting. rail union leaders—Alvanley Johns ton of the engineers, D. B. Robertson of the firemen and A. J. Glover Jr. of the switchmen—were uncomfort ably aware of what happened to the mine chief when he disobeyed an in junction to call off his soft coal strike. They knew that if they disobeyed Judge Goldsborough’s restraining order they would be exposing them selves and their unions to whopping big fines and possible jail sentences. It was becoming apparent that the government had hit upon a hard- fisted way of delaying crippling strikes. With labor unrest destined to grow this summer, that method, though far from ideal, might come to be the basic formula for induc ing arbitration and settlement of strikes. DIXIE: Anti-Truman Although President Harry TrumaU had not held forth publicly on the subject of civil rights for some time now, the echoes of the civil rights program he advanced earlier this year were rattling around like sabers south of the Mason-Dixon line. Alabama voters had expressed themselves as being anti-Truman. In the state’s primary election they had given majorities to candidates pledged to cast electoral votes against the President because of the civil rights issue. It was the first concrete indica tion that a bolt from the regular Democratic party nominee might not be unlikely next November if the nominee (like Mr. Truman) is committed to supporting the civil rights program. And in Jackson, Miss., a “state’s rights” Democratic rally was key noted with a flat prediction that President Truman would not be re elected because he is not acceptable to the nation or the southern Demo crats. Gov. J. Strom Thurmond of South Carolina defined the South’s stand when he told the rally that the South is not in revolt against the Demo cratic party but against its present leadership. Spark that kindled the political fire in the South was Mr. Truman’s espousal of proposals to pass fed eral laws outlawing lynching, poll taxes, job discrimination and segre gation of races. Legislation like that, Governor Thurmond asserted, would violate the historic principle of the right of states to determine their own attitude toward such mat ters. So far it was only talk, but anti- Truman feeling had crystallized in the South to the point where party leaders were badly worried. If the Dixie Democrats carried their de fection to the ultimate point of nominating their own candidate, the big-wigs might as well throw in the sponge for the ’48 elections and start looking to 1952. SMOKE, SMOKE, SMOKE A m ericans Burning M ore C igarettes Cigarette consumption in the U. S. in 1947 ascended to an all-time high for the 14th consecutive year, despite spectacular wartime gains which would have made a subse quent postwar decline no great sur prise to the industry. According to an article In the May edition of "Business ' Comment," bulletin of Northern Trust company. total output of 370 billion cigarettes last year was 5 per cent greater than in 1946. “Per capita cigarette consumption in the U. S. has followed an upward trend, with minor interruptions, since prior to World War I,” the bank reported. On a per capita basis consumption jumped from 166 in 1914 to 2,400 in 1947. UNCERTAINTY: W ho W on? Just about all that anyone was sure of when the smoke from the Ohio primary elections had cleared was that Sen. Robert Taft had won 44 delegates to the Republican na tional convention and that Harold Stassen, the wolf at Taft’s door, had captured nine. How these results should be in terpreted promised to be a thor oughly argued question by the time the Republicans convened in Phila delphia to nominate a presidential candidate. Many held the opinion that the Ohio primary resulted in, if not an outright defeat for Stassen, at least a brusque check on the Minneso tan’s . heretofore snowballing cam paign. Stassen had competed with Taft for 23 of the state’s 53 delegates. He won nine and Taft took 14 of those 23. In a pre-election state ment, Stassen had said that the Ohio contest could be accounted a victory for him only if he won a majority of the 23 disputed delegates. Thus, by his own estimate, Stas sen lost in Ohio. He lost, however, to a “favorite son” candidate strong ly supported in his own state by Ohio’s powerful political organiza tion. It was hardly a victory for Taft to shout about. In the final analysis the G.O.P. election race had hot changed much. It was Taft and Dewey teaming up to force Stassen into the rail, with Sen. Arthur Vandenberg of Michigan coming up fast on the outside. FARM ISSUE: Truman’s Rather hard put for a good/earthy issue to play upon in his coming campaign, President Truman has hit upon the farm problem as the vehicle to carry some of his con victions before the public. He began by planning a message to congress on the subject of long- range agricultural legislation. The idea was originated by the retir ing Secretary of Agriculture Clinton Anderson who opined that such a plea to congress would put the Re publicans “on the spot.” The message which Mr. Truman was preparing would ask for an “adequate appropriation” to con tinue the government farm program, “particularly on soil conservation,’’ according to Alben Barkley, senate Democratic leader. Barkley acidulously recalled that the President had asked ■ in his budget message for 300 million dol lars for soil conservation in the coming fiscal year, and that con gress had cut that sum to 225 mil lion. Many U. S. farmers would be inclined to agree. 4X5 for Taft Sen. Robert, Taft’s presidential star once again was in ascend ancy following the important Ohio primary election of SS Repub lican national convention dele gates. He won 14 of the 23 con tests in which Harold E. Stassen was a strong disputant. WHEAT: Big Crop Word from the department of agriculture was that the U. S. would produce the third largest wheat crop in history this year. The department stuck to that pre diction even though it had reduced its estimate of the important winter wheat crop by 14.5 million bushels from the April I estimate. Except in parts of the southern great plains, the crop made good progress, it was revealed in an offi cial department report. As of May I, prospects were for a total of 1.117 billion bushels of wheat. Largest crop was 1.36 billion bushels last year. Production in the 1936-45 period averaged 890 million bushels. Department of agriculture estimat ed the fall-sown winter wheat crop at about 845 million bushels, a de cline of 14.5 from its April I fore cast. No official estimate of spring wheat was available, but a guess was that average yields should pro duce 272 million bushels. PLANT LIFE: Appetites Atomic scientists have learned that some plants, like human be ings, are finicky eaters. This new knowledge, important commercially, is the result of ex haustive tests with radioactive iso topes of phosphorous. Now science can tell a farmer who spends $50 to put phosphate fer tilizer on his land whether the plant only nibbles or takes a bite big enough to repay his expenses. a r m Simple Dehydrator Saves Garden Crops Homemade Apparatus Serves Kfany Purposes A homemade dehydrator heating unit, which also may be used as a room heater in the home or brooder house, is an economical device and a labor-saver, on the farm. Successful drying depends upon re moval of enough moisture from the fruit or vegetables to prevent spoil age. This must be done at a tem perature that does not seriously affect the texture, color and flavor of the vegetable or fruit. Best results are obtained when fruits, and vegetables are dried in a dehydrator, like one shown, rather that in the sun. In hot, dry locali ties, however, sun-dried fruits have excellent color, flavor and good nu tritive value. Sun-dried vegetables usually are noticeably inferior to Good type of homemade deby- drator heating unit, which also may be used as a room heater. dehydrated vegetables in most re spects, but when properly dried they are fairly satisfactory. If gas - filled tungsten - filament lamps are used, care should be taken to prevent liquids dripping onto the bulbs, as that is likely to crack them. If carbon-filament lamps are used, as shown in the picture, water dripping on them will not crack the bulbs. Minerals Will Improve Quality of Egg Shells Improvement in shell, texture of eggs can be made in many cases by providing the foods that supply the mineral properties contained in the shell itself. The shell of the egg contains about 90 per cent cal cium carbonate and foodstuff con taining the minerals and vitamins necessary for shell production should help to increase the supply and bring about some improvement in shell quality. Shell-grit or oyster shell-grit pro vides calcium carbonate, but with out vitamin D the hen may not be able to convert sufficient quantities to meet the demands for bone and egg-shell formation. Nests For Turkeys IaCtoek Ioe Mfifioq I *»2 MOffl Crowding of turkeys in nests will be largely eliminated if enough space and enough nests are pro vided. Accepted size of an in dividual turkey nest is '18 inches wide by 24 inches high by 28 inches deep. Quite often eggs are broken and these broken eggs soil others. It is wise to have turkey nests both inside the breeder house and out- of-doors during periods of rapidly changing weather conditions. Photo shows Utah type of turkey nest. Swine Diarrhea Curbed With Proper Nutrition Proper nutrition, plays an impor tant role in control of swine diarrhea and scours, a source of considerable loss to most pork producers, accord ing to Wise Burroughs of the Ohio station. Nursing pigs are suscepti ble to the disease, feeder pigs get enteritis and even older animals sometimes scour. Deficiencies in any one of five different B-vitamins may cause diar rhea, Burroughs warns. SaIlilower Crop Thrives Without Heavy Rainfall Sallflower poses no serious ques tion of competition with flax in humid areas where flax prospers. It seems to thrive in areas of less rainfall, where normal precipitation is only 12 to 15 inches annually and where flax generally does not yield so well Normally, too, under "dry-land” conditions, sallflower does as wel as wheat or better. It is resistant tr most diseases 'and insects. Build It From A Pattern SANDBOX OR WADING POOL EASILY CONSTRUCTED — TAHES LITTLE TIME TO BUILD. By: Donald R.

Can you give me any advice? ANSWER: Get top-quality pro ducts and, whichever type you select ask for instruction sheets on the correct method of installation. Wall insulation that requires “blowing- in” usually ’ is handled by special companies who have the equipment for this work. Batt or blanket-type insulation can be put in by a home owner who is handy with tools. When insulation is placed in between the rafters, the attic space can be utilized for living quarters. QUESTION: We are planning to build a recreation room in our base ment. Can you give me any plans or suggestions on how to build and arrange it? ANSWER: Booklets on this sub ject are published by the manufac turers of asphalt floor tile and wall- boards suitable for such rooms. Your first consideration should be to see that all traces of dampness are eliminated. ;■ HOT STARCH IN 30 SECONDSAiO B O IL IN G AiO ST IC K IN G Buy U. S. Savings Bonds!

If you are a tradesm an, or skilled or unskilled laborer who works with his hands—if you call yourself a “worker”—you m ust indeed be thankful that you live in America. Not that you should be any more or less thankful being a doctor, lawyer, teacher, or whatever you are. But somebody has called this nation a "workers’ Republic”, and I consider that phrase a good way to describe what we enjoy in this land of plenty.- Indeed there is no other country, whether socialized, partly social ized, or even communistic, that has given its workers more. A capital istic America has enabled even “common” laborers to live like kings were accustomed to live not m any years ago. We produce and enjoy the fruits of production. We m ust never forget that this has come about because the American way of life m akes it possible. Glorious Future Do you know of a better and happier workers’ nation?' Have t -e “ isms” and ideologies of the ex perim enters produced anything bet ter? Certainly they have not. Ne worker in the world comes anywhere close to drawing the pay or en joying the comforts of the average person right here in America. There is hardly a nation today that is not begging us to -end them goods, or to bolster up their lagging econ omy in some way. Possibly there are shortcomings in the American method. But judg ing from the achievements of the past, and viewing the possibilities ahead—I can think of nothing more foolish than to discard any part of our American way. We can have a future fully as glorious as our past. We have new worlds of atomic energy, jet pro pulsion, and electronics to explore. I can think of no other economic system , besides the kind we have in America, as beihg equal to the opportunities ahead. Your Own Way We have immediate needs, too. Our people could use perhaps five million new and improved homes in which to live. Millions of farm ; homes need electricity and running j water. We need more automobiles, * and our capacity for them seems j never to diminish. More cars m ean j more roads. One advancement calls j for many more. Friend, let me say that I know of no s> s.< ■ '< bring these things to us—except that ' American way of initiative and en- ;; terprise. In this workers’ America, there are other things of great impor tance. As a worker, you are not told what you may do or how to do it. You are not the m ere ohatiel of some state bureau. You can choose your job and your career, and so can your son. You" isiri m ake your own decisions. Whether you work for an employer, or decide to work for yourself, you have a right to serve the world your own way. These things are important to . you, and you are im portant to your nation. No other land can show the pro gress America has made. Nowhere else is there such a high standard of living—that applies to everybody. Progress has flourished here as nowhere else. Why? We have been free to exercise ingenuity, incentive, competition, and thrift. We have been free to invest savings in more and better tools. We have not been subject to tyranny or despotism from government. What political dicta torship can m atch this achieve m ent? - Oregon May Have Hot and Cold Running Highways PORTLAND, ORE. - A high way heated by hot water is pro posed by the Oregon state high way commission.

Johnson, 25, World War II veteran, has been offered a job in an Albu querque food m arket which he held up last spring—if he can get a pa role from the state penitentiary. Johnson was committed last June 30 for a three to four year term . He told the district judge the robbery was staged to finance his British w ar bride’s return to the United States.

A car differential provides a way to use tractor power to dig postholes. Plowing Is Major Step In Garden Pest Control It’s sm art gardening to double- cross garden insect pests by late fall spading or plowing in prepara tion for spring planting. Plowing is one of the most im portant steps in insect control because it interferes with the natural and normal activi ties of the insects for living through the winter. Insects wintering above the ground can stand severe cold but not burying in moist cold foil, and those below cannot live. S^rve Your Own Home-Cn' Tomato Juice M m For a party drink, cocktail, or any- hour health drink, tomato juice U always appetizing and satisfying. It rates high in Vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which we must have to main tain good health. When making to mato juice it is important to cook the tomatoes always below the boil ing point in order to preserve vitamin content as well as flavor and the luscious red color which gives this juice added appeal. Cooking below the boiling point is a rule to follow in the making of all fruit juices, ac cording to the Ball Blue Book, fa mous home canning guide. In giving instructions' for making tomato juice, the Ball Blue Book points out that the juice may be put up unsalted if it is to be used in infant feeding. Otherwise, salt may be added to season. You can season your tomato juice according to the '—'Photo «ourte*y Ball Bros. Co. way your family likes it, including celery salt, Worcestershire sauce, pepper, minced onion, lemon juice, one or all as you desire, either when putting up the juice or opening it, to make a “fancy” tomato juice cock tail. Use firm, red-ripe, freshly picked tomatoes, discarding any which are bruised or specked with decay or fungus. Wash carefully. Leave whole and bake in an oven; or steam; or cut into small pieces and cook until soft. A higher percentage of vita mins is retained, some authorities maintain, when the tomatoes are baked or steamed. Press the hot tomatoes through a fine, preferably cone-shaped, sieve. Beheat to simmering (195-205 de grees F.). Pour into hot Ball Jars. Process 20 minutes in hot-water bath at simmering. K B & I M CGtKRf I f PREPARED BV AMERICAN FOUNDATION FOR ANIMAL HEALTH A SEKIOUS menace ACROSS THE BORDER Every livestock ow..er in the United States should appoint himself a "com mittee of one” to help guard against today’s threat of foot-and-mouth CatHe killed In toot and mouth disease outbreak. disease from across the Mexican - border. As long as a single infected cow ; remains in Mexico, herds in this coiuitry will never be secure. Many thousands of Mexican cattle now carry the infection, and the campaign to check the outbreak in that country is far from being completed. In spite of the quarantine of the outbreak area and the United States’ jan on livestock impov^s from Mexico, there is danger that the plague may somehow leap across the border. Migratory birds or other wildlife may carry the virus, according to veterinary authorities. It may be carried on the clothing of farm workers or other persons. Animals or animal products may get through, in spite of all precautions. Because of these risks, American farmers are urged to be suspicious when symptoms appear involving the mouth or feet of farm animals, and to call the nearest veterinarian or livestock health official at once. At least four other diseases cause symptoms so closely resembling those of foot-an-rnouth disease that only a veterinarian can tell them apart Insttnt action in identifying the true cause of trouble is the greatest safe guard, because foot-and-mouth disease spreads like wildfire. It has been latown to jump from one herd to 20 herds in two days. Foot-and-mouth disease, even when it is not fatal, destroys the economic value of an animal. It affects not only cattle but also swine, sheep and goats. HOM: FREEZING EAt=Y WITH NEW GLASS FREEZER JA S There is a new glass Freezer Jar on the market which is manufac tured by the world’s largest fruit jar maker. This sturdy, airtight, and leak-proof jar is ideal for home food freezing. Whether you store your frozen foods in a locker plant or in your own home freezer, you will find these glass Freezer Jars convenient and so easy to use and sure to protect fresh food flavor. Caps are recessed so that the jars can be stacked, and the caps are lined with a special rubber com pound which makes the airtight seal. To empty frozen food from a Freezer Jar, you simply run cool water on the cap or set in pan of cool water, unscrew, and turn the jar upside down. Contents will slide out. And the beauty of these frozen food containers is that they can be used over and over again—both jars and caps! They also make fine re frigerator jars for storing leftovers and may be used for home canning by sealing with Wide Mouth Bair Dome Caps. njrvBStfsxSK PREPARED BY AMERICAN FOUNDATION FOR ANIMAL HEALTH NEW ‘HOT SPOTS’ FOR BOVINE T.B.

As long as a single infected animai remains, there will always be danger of spreading tuberculosis to a dis astrous number of cattle.

Periodic testii.g of iierds, on a herd or area basis, is the only way to be sure that new and serious flare-ups of bovine T. B. trill not occur. In areas where tuberculosis has ppetrpr in re cent years, veterinarians are advising yearly tests, tn areas long tree of the disease, it may not be necessary to make tests oftener than every two or three years. Following the tests, reactors should be slaughtered Government funds are available to compensate the owners of the cattle thus destroyed. Livestock health authorities throughout the country are active ir efforts to finish oL the fight against tuberculosis. With co-operation from i stock owners, they believe the iob . ean oe done. In the meantime, every cattle owner should make sure that !tis own animals are uberculosls-free By doing so, he not only protects his • livestock but the health of his own ! family.

Isenhour. HUb1Peint, N. C. R4 Tongue and temper is a master. Like a mighty tyrant kind, That will wreck and bring disaster, Or a wound, or bruise, or sting, If God’s Spirit, meek and holy. Doesn’t govern and control. And there isn’t grace that’s lowlv Deep within the life and soul. Tongue and temper is the reason Many crimes have cursed the earth Nation’s fight, and men of treason Sell'the land that gave them birth,- Yes, through temper, tongue and spirit That are foul with many sins, Man reveals his little merit. Showing why he never wins. Tongue and temper murders daugh ters, Murders husbands, wives and sons; Murders sweethearts, kills an d slaughters. And our sense both shocks and stuns, ' Till we’re made to weep and wonder How such cruelty can be— Why, O why, men rage like thunder When from such they conld be. free! Tongue and temper breaks so many Precious ties within the home, Never bringing good to any Where we dw ell'or where we roam; Yes, the temper stirred to action. And the tongue with cutting speech. Oftentimes can bring a faction That is grievous to each. Tongue and temper wins no battles That are blessed and sublime. For where anger rolls and tattles Men to greatness do not climb; Neither do they bless their nation. Norreceive God’s holy grace. But in life they take their station, With no sunshine in the face. Tongue and temper tells the story Of the loss of many germs. And the things that would bring glory— Even honor’s diadems; So we want to tell our readers, If you’d go life’s upward way And be classed as noble leaders. Take Christ In your soul today. Spare 7he Rod The Skyland Post. The question ot the value of spanking the child-has often been discussed. Some parents approve as do some school teachers. But often teachers run into trouble over this method of punishment. In Detroit last week, the teachers were given the go-ahead signal on spanking, however. The matter came to a head when the mother of a to-year old boy complained he had been spanked In school for pulling a little girl's bair, Superintendent Arthur Dondin- eau, in a formal statement, said ’’the teachers stands in the place of the parent towards pnplls dur. ing school hours.” "The superintendent and his staff will support principals and teachers in all reasonable disci p. Iinary measures,” Dondineauadded That, said Deputy Superintend ent Herman J. Browe, includes spanking. In recent weeks the subject of school discipline has received pro minence in Michigan because of parental complaints against teachers ’’We do not advocate corporal punishment,” Browe went on. "It may be used within legal and rea sonable bounds, and in such use ihe teachers have the' support of the administration. On occasion, just as in the home, it may be a good solution.” Dr. Eugene B. Elliott, State su perlntendent of public instruction, was inclined to agree. "The flat of the hand applied to the soft, round part of the child’s body doesn’t do him much barm and often does much good,” he observed. Perhaps old fashioned ideas are coming back In something besides clothes. s n Big Hiding Place I A MAN hitched up the family nag and took his daughter for a drive. At a lonely stretch in the road, a masked bandit held them np. The man barely had time to' whisper to his daughter, “Hide your diamond bracelet in your mouth.” The bandit took everything they had and drove off in the gig, but he never found the bracelet. When-he was out of sight, the father observed, “It’s too bad we didn’t bring Mama. We could have' saved the horse and buggy.” ALL OR NOTHING A The barefooted young man stood before the grizzled mountaineer. “Mistah Claghom,” he stam mered. “Ah’ve—Ah’ve come hyar to ask ya fer yar daughter’s hand.” The mountaineer knocked the ashes out of his pipe. “Cain’t allow no sech thing,” he drawled. “Either ya takes the whole gal, or nothin’!” The Best Teacher There never had been any argu ment about it: Julius was the wisest and shrewdest man in town. One day a youth of the community ques tioned him on the subject. “Julius,” he said, “to what would you attribute the fact that you know so much?” “Good judgment,” replied Julius readily. “Bd say it was my good judgment.” “And where did you get your good judgment?” “That I got from experience.” “Where did you get your experi ence?” “Prom my bad judgment.” Can George Do It?Blue - eyed, golden.-, hatred and fickle Betty Jean had many suitors. After narrowing the field to three, she still found it impossible to make up her mind about which one she should choose for her husband. In her quandary, she started to look up the meaning of their names in the dictionary. “Mother,” she said, “it says that Philip means lover of horses, and James means dearly beloved. What do you suppose George means?” “I hope,” replied her mother, “that George means business.” BETTER SEE THE BARBER “Have you a good memory for faces, dear?” “I have.” “Splendid—I’ve just dropped your shaving mirror.” A Few Keepsakes Little Margie had been attending a birthday party, and now her big sister had come to take her home.

Food for Franco Campaign Qrows After Author Dies KANSAS CITY, MO. — A Vorld War II veteran’s one man campaign for food for France grew though he had died. James M, Morgan, 25, who served in France, recently had bought a jeep at a war surplus sale to speed collection of donations for his per sonal plan for Europe. Morgan died in a hospital of injuries suffered in an accident involving his jeep and another car. Fellow members of Jimmy’s French club at University of Kan sas City have decided to carry on his program to fill a boxcar with food for the French. Originally Jimmy sent one 11- pound food'package a month to a French student. Then a grocer sug gested that he try to collect enough food for a boxcar. Jimmy became enthusiastic about it and bought the jeep to speed up the work. “We feel as if we were working for him (Jimmy) as much as for French children,” said Miss Billie Mahoney, 19-year-old president of the French club. New Landing Qear for Heavy Planes Is Being Developed WASHINGTON.—A new caterpil lar-type landing gear for planes is being developed. It is retractable and adaptable for heavy aircraft. Such a landing gear, the air forces said, would solve many land ing problems. The gear is a track- type similar to that on the com mon farm tractor or army tank. AL ready, one track type landing gear has been tested successfully on one plane, but it was not retractable. One track replaces each of the conventional nose and tail wheels. This permits a plane to land on soft dirt, sand or mud. In normal flight, the gear under development would retract into the wing and body as conventional wheels do. Pullets Teimed Better Layers Than Old Hens Further evidence of the impor tance of keeping only pullets for layers and selling all old hens is contained In tests conducted at western Kentucky substation. Average results over 11 years show that annual production of Barred Rock pullets was four dozen eggs per bird greater than that of hens. In the case of White Leg horns, pullets laid three dozen eggs per bird more than old hens.

Of Peaceful Era in Country LISBON, PORTUGAL. - Pre mier Antonio de Oliveira Salazar said Portugal’s domestic situa tion was never before “so calm and peaceful” and emphasized that both internal and foreign policies re mained unchanged under the lead ership of Pres. Marshal Antonio Carmona. Salazar spoke 45 minutes before the national assembly. The deputies cheered.

Fhmily life in America is pretty much the same, no matter where' we live. Little people—millions of us—earning our living, keeping house, going to school, working together for the kind of life we all want for ourselves and for our children. We are planning for Health for the breadwinner, the mother, the children, the neigh, borbood, and ihe town and county where we live; for Education for ourselves and children, so that each of us can make the most of his own life and be a more valuable part of our community; for Security for all the family, so we know we have something to depend upon. Indi vidually we strive for all these thing s and collectively we share the risks of insecurity. As a nation, we took our first step to lessen the problem of our financial insecurity with the pass age of the Social Security Act. ThecardinaIaim sof social secur ity are to keep individuals and families from destitution, to keep families together, to give children tbe opportunity of growing up in tbeir own homes. Tbe eight programs provided for n the Act may be grouped under three heads. Tbe first group is social insurance, including unem ployment insurance and old-age and survivors insurance. The s<-( ond group is public assistance to the needy, including old-age ass istance, aid to the needy blind, and aid to dependent children. The third group is children’s services, including maternal and child health service, services for crippled child ren, and child welfare services. Although the Social Security Act is a Federal law, the Federal Government operates only one of the programs, that of old-age and survivors insurance. The other seven programs are operated by the States with the Federal Govern ment cooperating and contributing funds. Today, under tbe old-age and survivors insurance program alone, Uncle Sam’s mailmen are deliver, ing monthly checks to about 2,000,- 000 persons. Over one-half of this number are women and children. Figures show that under this pro- gram, 8,500,000 workers are in sured for life; that almost 8oo,oo9 retired workers, 65 or over, and a- bout 250,000 aged wives, 65 or over, are receiving monthly bene fit cheeks; that about 500,000 child ren of retired and deceased insured Morkers and 280,000 widows a e receiving monthly survivorsh d benefits, qTruly, this is social se curity in operation.

Any further news that comes in will . . Jerry Anderson snapped off the radio. He'd heard the particulars of the brutal strangulation of Mrs. Prescott and the description of the suspect several times this eve ning. After that wordy, unlovely portrait of the man, he felt that even he would recognize him if he ever contacted him, but he hoped that he wouldn’t. Jerry was no coward, but . . .* * * After Jerry’s recent discharge from the hospital, he decided that he wanted to live out at the cot tage while making his plans for the future. His family objected, not without cause, and it wasn’t until old Doc Crowder, the family friend and physician,' convinced them that it would be a good thing for Jerry to do under the circumstances, that they finally yielded to his wishes. Jerry had spent every summer of his life there, until his enlistment, and he loved the old place. So, when his. mother and Lucy reluctantly left him this after noon, he was glad. Not that he did not appreciate the things which they had been doing for him, but he wanted to be on his own. He had plans to make and this change and the quiet that he would have would be perfect. He had tried, during his month at home, to apply his own "self-reasoning” method, but to little avail. He felt coidident that it could be tested properly by facing his problems independently.* * * Jerry sat near the window for quite some time trying to make a start at some of that "self- reasoning,” but his mind kept re verting to Uie broadcast he had heard earlier. If the woman only had had a gun, he thought. She probably would have been afraid to use it, though; most women •were. He thought of the empty Luger in his bag and wished that he could have tried again to get some ammunition for it. He loved that gun, a gift from one of his buddies who had not come back. Jerry went into the bedroom and took the gun from his bag. He fondled it and then slipped it into his pocket. He smiled when he realized just how foolish that was. He came back to his chair and then lit his pipe. He bad been sitting there for just a few minutes when, sud denly, he heard the back door being opened, and then the click of the light switch. He sat still, wondering who it could be, a dozen thoughts chasing through his mind. He felt the useless gnu in his pocket and took it out, gripping it firmly. Now, if ever, he could test himself on several of the things which he had learned during his rehabili tation. In less than a minute, it seemed, he heard the ice-box door being opened, and a low chuckle come from the intruder. Then he heard things being put on the table. He knew that whoever was in the kitchen seemed sure of himself. He must know, he thought, that even with the whole house lighted, it was practically impossible to see in from any side. The minutes dragged while he Estened to the man eating and drinking. From the noise he was making, slamming the ice-box' door and moving his chair, the man undoubtedly thought that he was alone. Perhaps he had seen Lucy and her mother leave hours before and had waited for darkness to come. After what had seemed an hour, he heard the man get up from the table and walk toward the hall which led into the living room. Jerry knew that his safety de pended upon .what he would be able to do within the next few minutes. It wasn’t a very pleas ant spot to be in, but . . . He thought of the broadcaster’s remark, that the killer had not used a car, and that it was sus pected that he was making a get away Ay the county back-roads and woods. This could be the man. For as long as he could remember, no ordinary tramp had ever stray ed so far away from the main go. I ain’t done nothing but eat some of your grub. Honest, mister, I’ll get out of here quick if you’ll put that gun down.” This was the voice of a frightened man, but not the voice or true dialect of a , hobo. Jerry relaxed slightly, and the man in the chair moved. This w as,the time to "follow through” if he was ever going to do it. "Get up and do exactly as I tell you,” he commanded. The man cringed but rose slowly, bis eyes still on the gun. He hated guns; he was afraid of guns, and he knew now that this man knew it, too. If he could only khock it to the floor . . . “Keep your hands high, get to that telephone beside the door, and do‘ as I tell you. Any monkey- business. . .” The man advanced toward the door and the telephone without looking from right to left. Jerry moved to his side as he passed him. He could feel the man’s body tremble, as though he were having a chili, when he touched him with the gun. "Now put your left hand on the receiver, lift it off the hook and 7 / Jerry knew that his safety depended upon wbat he would be able to do within the next few minutes. highway. He must have come upon the house by accident. When Jerry heard a hand mov ing along the wall groping for a ligbt-switch, he stood up and pointed the gun toward the door. Then it happened—the living room light was snapped on. He heard a hoarse cry of surprise. The man’s breathing was heavy as he stood motionless, facing the gun. He had a fear that Jerry could sense was genuine. "Get ’em up! Who are you and what do you want?” Jerry was an officer in the infantry again as he made the demand. The man was shaking when he spoke, "You’re a cool one, brother. Put that gun down, please, before you hurt somebody.” He took a step forward, and Jerry raised the gun and moved it slightly from side to side. Looking toward the man, Jerry was not sure of what he should do next. Then all the admonitions of his teachers came back to him: SHOW NO FEAR— THINK FAST—SPEAK WITH CON VICTION — REASON — FOLLOW THROUGH . . . "Sit down in that chair,” Jerry roared, surprised at his loud voice. This gave him a bit of confidence. Then he thought of his next move. "A nut,” the man ventured, half under his breath, and he obeyed. He kept his eyes on the gun as though hypnotized by it. "Shut up and sit still.” "You’re a smart . . .” The man glanced away from the gun just long enough to see if there was anything near that he could grab. “Wot you going to do? Let me Si?'-' .

When the op erator answers, tell her to con nect you with the Helm road dis trict police. When- they answer, tell them to come immediately to the Anderson cottage off Helm road.” The man lowered his arm slowly and took the receiver off the hook. He’d stall, he thought; maybe the nut would give him an ‘in.’ But hearing the sound of regular breathing and feeling the pressure of the gun against his back, any illusions that he might have had regarding an ‘in,’ were shattered. “Operator, gimme the Helm road police station.” His voice quaver ed, and his hand was shaking. He couldn’t keep the receiver close to his ear. The man was conscious of the gun at his back, and he spoke in a deep hoarse whisper, “Come to' the Anderson cottage off Helm road right away.” “What’s up?” Jerry heard the officer ask. “Tell him,” he snapped at the man. “I’ve got the man you’ve been looking for.” Jerry heard the quick break of the connection at the police sta tion. iVisu a l iz e —ch an ce it— DO—FOLLOW THROUGH’ . . . He had the answer . . . “Drop that receiver and get your left arm up.” He hesitated, then ordered his prisoner to go back to the same chair and sit down. The killer had a dogged smirk on his face as he turned and moved toward the chair. He felt positive that his captor was a ‘nut,’ and with that gun . . . Seconds passed as he continued to glare at Jerry. Then he thought of an old trick that he would try in order to get Jerry off guard. He wondered why he had not tried it when he first came into the room. Stiffening himself and settling back in the chair, he broke the silence with a tirade of oaths. “Keep it up and keep them up, too,” Jerry ordered. This was not the reaction that the killer had hoped for. He then quieted and began to talk more coherently, and soon was telling of the crime for which he was be ing hunted. He spared none of the details. Then Jerry heard the purr of a motor and men’s voices. A slight wave of relief swept over him. Almost immediately, there was a sound of crackling shrub bery and running feet. The front , door opened and two officers, with guns drawn, rushed In. They saw their man and covered him. “Good work, Mr. Anderson, good work.” When the officers yanked the man to his feet and they had start ed for the door, one of them said to the prisoner, “You're^ lucky to have. had this extra livmg time, him spotting you and with every body in the county ready and will ing to shoot you on sight.” The prisoner did not comment, but he scowled and was shaking and snorting with -anger. “The gun was not loaded, of ficer, and I could recognize him only from his story . . . you see, I am blind,” Jerry said softly. j u n i o r ^ r o c tt j 4 a S W ice ^ b e t a i l ,S i a n t e c l e s C in e i o n S n u i i i a b iv M 176512-42« 11-18 Date Frock Three tiny buttoned tabs make a pretty finish for this youthful date frock.

Pattern Nn giwa Namn Battle of Coral Sea Termed First Big Defeat for Japan In the battle of that island-studded ocean known as the Coral sea, which is near the Solomon islands and about 1,000 miles northeast of Aus tralia, America’s first real victory of the war with Japan was scored. The action occurred on May 4, 1942, and called for deeds of valor as thrilling as any in all American history. The Coral sea battle was the first great naval defeat ever dealt the imperial Japanese fleets. And yet this battle was fought entirely in the air, by the planes of opposing aircraft carriers. ' The ships engaged in this battle never got sight of each other. They slugged it out without firing a single gun at another ship—the first en gagement of its kind in history. Bi this first great victory for the U. 5/ in this global war the Japs lost more than IS ships sunk and at least 20 others severely damaged. The action perhaps saved Australia from inva sion. However, America paid a high price for her victory in the sultry Coral sea. In this engagement the aircraft carrier, Lexington, famed ship that laid the foundation of our modem navy’s aircraft carrier op erations, went to the bottom. This happened on May 7.

Esther's Zeal For Her People Lesson for June 13,1948 GEORGE MEREDITH has a line that runs like this, “God’s rar est blessing is, after all, a good woman.” In this study of Esther, you m ay wish to think. of her pri m arily as a cour ageous woman — m ost people do, I guess. But back of her courage was a solid goodness, else she would never have been ,able to say, “And if I perish, I per ish.” One m ust read the Book of Es ther, of course, to have any grasp of this great story. It requires but a few minutes, and every reader will be richly rewarded. I have a lawyer friend, a prodigious reader, who tells, me that once each month, for the past 50 years, he has read the Book of Esther. * * * A QUEEN WHO WAS BRAVE DANIEL, we agreed, was a brave person; but not m ore brave than Esther. There is a verse in Hebrews 13:6 that serves adm irably to interpret this first stage of Esther’s m anifest courage, “The Lord is my helper.” We go to the palace in Shushan, where reigned Ahasuerus. His king dom stretched from India even unto Ethiopia. His queen, Vashti, refused to come before him when he had made a feast. As a result of this refusal, the king ordered young maidens brought before him that he m ight chose a new queen. There was in the court a Jew, Mordecai, who had been brought there from Jerusalem . He had in his care the daughter of his uncle, a beautiful maiden, nam ed Esther. Mordecai saw here a great opportunity and he brought her before the king. She was chosen. This brief sketch ac counts for her position.* * » A QUEEN WHO HELPED HER PEOPLE HAMAN1 who was next to the king in authority, discovering that Mordecai was a Jew and was not worshipping as H am an had com manded, caused a decree to be is sued which would put to death all the Jew s in the kingdom. Mordecai, learning of this decree, sent word secretly to Esther, urging her to in tercede on behalf of her people to the king. Here is the heart of the story. Space does not perm it a detailed recital. It is sufficient to say that Esther, though still in her early twenties, m anaged this delicate sit uation with such skill that the gal lows which Ham an had built for Mordecai turned out to be the instru m ent of death for H am an and his sons. Instead of the Jews being slaughtered, those who had planned the death of all die Jew s lay dead. • « * ESTHER RISKED ALL AND WON ALL IF EVER there was a perfect, il lustration of staking one’s all on one great moment, Esther provides such illustration. “Who knoweth whether thou art not come to the lringdom for such a tim e as this?” said Mordecai as he bolstered her nerve. It is. such a challenge as young people m ay be facing today. Ob viously, the m om ent now confront ing us calls for great faith and great sacrifice if this world is to be saved from utter destruction. It m ay be that this situation calls for hitherto unknown tactics. And let us pray God there is somewhere an Esther. * * * THE MESSAGE OF ESTHER WHICH leads m e to suggest that racial hatred was never more bitter than at this moment. Unless the winds of God blow, unless some mighty manifestation of divine inter vention is granted, the world will break up on the rocks of prejudice and selfishness and ambition and all the form s and fashions of sin. “God moves in a mysterious way, his wonders to perform .” Let us pray that we m ay early witness some mighty stroke of his mercy, and deliverance, ere the night let down. {Copyright by the International Council oi Religious Fducotion on behalf of 40 Protestant denominations.

The main area of distribution extends from occidental Africa to the China sea, but the camels of Abraham and Isaac flourish from the arid climates to the frozen north, and at aU altitudes are exploited by human beings regardless of the fact that they are but "ships of the desert.” Camel-using countries contain more than one-half of the world’s population. Feanuts as Cash Cr<q> Peanuts have moved up to third place among cotton belt cash crops. In the last 35 years com mercial production of this crop has increased sixfold. Peanut hay now runs to nearly one and one-half million tons a year. A million acres are grazed by hogs. There was a rapid expansion in peanuts in both World Wars. During the first war production almost tripled. This expansion was encouraged by boll-weevil damage in the lower cotton belt and by enlarged mar kets for peanuts. During the sec ond war production again went up rapidly. Along with this rapid in crease in production there have been changes in varieties, and changes, also, in the uses of pea nuts. Old Bugs with New Tricks Baffle Strawberry Grower Sometimes it looks as though the war between men and bugs never WiU end. No sooner is one insect pest overcome than a new one ap pears or an old one is found up to new tricks. For instance, the southeast Lou isiana strawberry growers are dis tressed to discover that after aU these years the ground beetle, a little bug found almost every where, has started eating straw berries. First, he eats the little seed off the outside of the berry and then he starts in on the berry itself and nibbles a Uttle bite out of it, about like a bird might take at one peck. Won’t some of the powerful new Insecticides take care of the ground beetle? Yes, one of them WiU. Benzene hexachloride wiU kill the ground beetle In the wink of an eye. But there’s only one catch— benzene hexachloride has such a powerful odor and lingers so long on anything it touches that it can’t be used on strawberries without endangering aU the fruit on the plant or anywhere in the vicinity. Experts have advised the berry growers to use an older and slower method of making poison peUets of sodium fluosiUcate, meal, sugar and water and scattering them along the row, whUe new means of fighting the beetle are being worked out.

The proton is a fundamental particle v/hich carries a positive charge of electricity equal in magnitude to that of the electron but opposite In sign. The neutron has practically the same mass as that of the pro ton, but it has zero charge. Each atom consists of a nucleus contain ing protons and neutrons, and in orbits relatively far out from the necleus are electrons whose total electrical charge just balances that of the protons. Damage by Pecan Larvae Pecan nut casebearer (Acrobasis caryae (Grote) ) is sometimes a limiting factor in the production of pecans in certain areas in the Southeastern states. Most of the in jury is caused by the first-gener ation larvae, which attack the new ly set nuts. A single larva may destroy an entire njit cluster. The individual nuts that have been at tacked can be recognised by the characteristic borings, or frass, that are cast out by the larvae. The damage is most evident when pecan trees set a light nut crop but may also be severe in heavy crop yearp. In exceptionally heavy ‘ crop years the damage may be more than offset by a beneficial thinning effect due to the destruc tion of a uortion of the nuts. Flyer Reactions Studied Through X-Ray Equipment Knowledge of how a flier reacts physically to the strain when he makes a crash landing or is cata pulted from a crippled plane is be ing obtained in one of the more re cent uses of the millionth-of-a-sec- ond X-ray equipment. * * * Both army and navy medical laboratories are experimenting by making sequence photographs to obtain visual evidence of what hap pens to a pilot’s spine, heart and other organs under such condi tions. In crash landings, a flier under goes a shock equivalent to 10 times that suffered by a motorist if he could halt his machine in one sec ond from an 85-mile-an-hour speed. Body, harnesses cushion such de celeration blows, but more know ledge of the action of the body or gans may be of value in further solving the problem, according to Dr. Charles M. Slack, research di rector of the Westinghouse lamp division, Bloomfield, N. J. Advent of supersonic airplane speeds presents another difficulty. If a pilot tried to climb out at such a speed, he would be cut to rib bons by the wind, so a mechanical device "fires him out” when a but-J ton is pushed. *\ The high acceleration necessaryj to get the pilot out without his striking the plane causes another violent jerk to his organs, 20 times as severe as the normal pull of gravity.

JrttM at * Ten Million Votes If one of the first steps of socializa tion — government ownership— should come now in this country, ten million voters would be added immediately to the payroll of the federal government. Sounds unbelievable, doesn’t it? Ten million votes could make quite a show ing on a Tuesday of any November. Mr. Wallace, or any other candidate, could go far with that kind of backing. There are approximately that many persons employed in the transportation industry in the United States. Trans portation would be one of the first in dustries to be marked for nationaliza tion, in this country as in Britain. This would include waterways, airlines, Jnd possibly our trucks and their drivers. (Note on airlines: the British Overseas A irways Corporation, government owned and operated, is expected to show a $32 million loss!) Is This Fantasy? Even in taking over American rail roads, a would-be dictator could get po* sibly 1,500,000 votes. There are that many people employed by our railroads. Not all of them would vote the party line, at first. That would reduce the number of rail employees somewhat, until replacements were available. Of course, a new and revised form of WPA would be set up to absorb the unem ployed. But even a WPA-er can vote. Either way, perhaps, the government would appreciate votes! Lest we carry this satire too far, I will interrupt by saying that such a mess as the above is not sheer fantasy. It could happen here. The worst thing about it is that the general public, and even many folks in the transportation industry, are unaware of the danger. Yet, economic collapse and consequent government ownership is quite possible. The nation would not have to go Com munistic or be conquered by Russia for this to happen. Socialism, Quickly Yet, some of those who are closest to the transportation industry fear that I collapse may come. The trouble lies in outmoded forms of Federal regulation. Too much bureaucracy can take us to socialism more quickly than we think. This setting of the scene for trouble goes back a generation. The nation has compromised on policies so long that the result is a patchwork of rules and regulations that creates as much in efficiency as possible. Over 50 govern ment bureaus are charged with super vising some kind of transportation, with little overall coordination of policy. Ac tually, in event our common carriers find business no longer profitable, the government is already well prepared to begin the take-over. Elbow-room! The trouble is that despite the largest volume of peacetime traffic, too few of our common carriers are able to make enough profit to attract capital to the industry. If nationalization comes in this country, it may well come because private capital has dried up as far as transportation is concerned. The problem is this: We must have efficient, low cost transportation, and we must have it the American way. At a time when our railroads, like other forms of transport, are trying desper ately to reconstruct themselves after an all-out job in wartime, we can ill afford to shackle them with heavy tpx burdens and other financial obstacles that pre vent rehabilitation. As the president of one of our largest life insurance com panies puts it: “Our railroads need fi- ■ nancial elbow-room.” * DAVIE BRICK COMPANY DEALERS IN GOOD COAL Day Fhone 194 • Night Fhone 119 Mockuville, N.

Dear Dad: This little power-operated crane works like a charm from one standard Eveready flashlight ceil and has plenty of lifting power besides, since the cable drum is stepped down by two simple friction gears which insure a slow, steady and positive hoist Parts needed besides the motor in clude a IOf switch !obtainable at any electrical supply or dime store), a sheet of stiff cardboard (2-ply illustration board is admirable for the purpose), two circular typewriter erasers, two ordinary rubber pencil tips, a discarded thread spool, a bit of Vi-inch wood, a tube of model airplane cement some pieces of tin which can' be cut from any old tin can, and a IOr Eveready flashlight cell. Drive from the motor is taken off by centering one of the rubber pencil tips on the motor shaft and mounting an idler shaft “A” complete with friction wheel (one of the typewriter erasers) between the shaft brackets so that the pencil-tip drive pulley engages the eras er wheel firmly yet without binding. Another pencil tip is mounted on the idler shaft flush against the friction wheel and this in turn engages a second friction wheel (your other eraser) which is mounted on the drum shaft "B”. Shaft “B” is mounted in one plain bearing and one slotted bearing (see Fig. 2). The shaft extends through the slot and into and beyond the clutch lever. Beason for this is so that when it is desired to lower the hoist cable the clutch lever can be moved forward and thus disengage the drum shaft, which then is a free-wheeling unit and lets the cable lower itself for a fresh hoist Care should be taken in aligning the shaft bearing holes, anu this is best done by punching or drilling the holes in both shaft brackets as one piece after carefully determining their position.' which of course will depend upon the exact size of the typewriter eraser fric tion wheels available. As these vary in size: no exact dimensions can be given at this point Fig. I shows a sectional view ot the model with the gear train in proper relation. The thumbnail sketch.

Also, there seems to be no scientific evidence to support the old super stition that the feeding of new corn is somehow related to outbreaks of cholera. The only thing seasonal about hog cholera, according to these authori ties, is the proper time for the first vaccination of young pigs. Vaccination j at or around weaning time, for each new crop of pig.:, is the surest and most effective precaution against devastating losses from this fast-killing virus.As an added safeguard against hog cholera, farmers are urged to guard against letting s ok swine be brought onto the premises. There are many ways tnat cholera can be transmitted from one herd to another. Flies, for instance, may carry the virus. But many outbreaks have been traced to infection carried from farm to farm on the clothing of threshing crews! in uncooked garbage, ir contaminated feed bags, on wagon and truck wheels and other equip ment. Still other dangers must be kept in mind. Hog cholera virus and hypodermic needles, carelessly handled by persons without the proper training, can spell disaster. Furthermore, pigs should be given a general physical check-up by a veterinarian to be sure they are in proper condition for vac cination, because if they are not in satisfactory condition, they may not develop immunity.

The magazine American Affairs tells the story of a Cleveland mao who read this on a ten-dollar Fed eral Reserve note: “This note is legal tender for all debts, public and private, and is re deemabl in lawful money at the United States Treasury or at any Federal Reserve Bank.’’ Being curious, he sent the note to the Treasury and demitided ten dollars in “ lawful money.” The Treasury responded by sending him two five-dollar United States notes But on these notes the Cleveland man read this: "The United State of America will pav to the bearer on demand five dollars.” So he sent the notes back to the Treasury and demanded five dollars. In due lIme he got the reply that the term “ lawful money” applied to money before the New Deal monetary legislation of 1933 but it uo'longer meant anything, and so the Cleveland mau’s five-dollar U- nited States note was returned to him. That transacticn is the equiva lent o f a situation like'this: Brown borrows Jioo from Jones and gives bis note for the amount. On the expiration date, Jones presents the note to Brown and demands his {too. But Brown replies, "That note is $100,” and hands it back to Jones and declares the debt set tled. Right theie, in case the admini stration is interested, is the cause of Inflation. By the Treasury’s own confession, there is no longer any lawful money in the United States—only managed currency. When the Roosevelt administra tion took us off the gold standard it was not satisfied bv that act a lone, it called in all gold In- pri vate hands, made it a crime to own the metal, and forbade any con tracts in gold coiu or in any other money except the government’s managed currency. In short, it made sound money illegal. ' Those measures gave the govern ment the power to manipulate U- nlted States money for its own purposes and to monetize the pub lie debt in fact the whole system of New Deal dehcit financing would have been impossible if sound money had not been outlaw ed, because, when our money was redeemable in. gold coin, the gov ernment could not issue anv trore money th-n it could redeem. As a result, our monev in those days was worth something. But. when the possession of gold| was made illegal; all restraints on the expan. sion of the money suppty were re moved. That’s why the child of 1948 pays a nickel for a one-ounce can. dy bar. His daddy at that age got two or three ounces. 3 ) Seemed That Way AMAN got 'Off the train after a cross-country trip, went to a hotel and virtually fell into bed. The hotel was situated near a railroad yard, and all night long the freight engines shunted freight cars around — crashing and banging. Whistles and bells sounded nearly all night. The man fought the noise until about 6 a. m., then reached for the ’phone and yelled for the clerk. “For goodness sake,” he inquired wearily, "w hat tim e does this hotel get to Chicago?” NO PLACE TO STARf The Newlyweds were givirig_aheir first turkey dinner. Since her hus band was a novice at carving Mrs. Newlywed insisted on his learning to carve from her new cook book, lest he display his ignorance before the guests. The turkey later was placed be fore the inexperienced host, who was plainly at a loss to know how to begin. “Go on, dear, carve it. You know exactly how to do it,” whispered the loyal young wife. “Of course I do, but I can’t find any of the dotted lines,” cam e back the troubled answer. Tell-Tale Evidence A young m an at college sent his laundry home, and when his mother opened it she nearly wept — his handkerchiefs were all tinged with lipstick. “Oh, Mother, be sensible,” her daughter com m iserated; “you couldn’t expect him to go forever without having a girl.” “I know,” fretted the mother;, “but look, there’s a different color on every handkerchief.” UNFORTUNATE METAPHOR Farm er’s Wife — It was good of you, doctor, to come all the way out here to see my husband.

Our County And Social Security By Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager. Many letters oi inquiry are re ceived each day. Several lollow as the quesiions are ones people are asking about Social Security. Letter Number I: “ My fiance lied two weeks ago. We bad planned to marry in June. There are no living relatives. I paid his funeral bill. Is tbere any paytnen t due me from his social security? This yonng woman is entitled to payment in partial reimbursement for the funeral bill sbe has paid but not because she was tbe fiance of the young man who died. Letter Number 2: “ Enclosed is a newspaper account of my hus band’s death. I am writing to find out what I most do to collect his social insurance I am 66 years old and confined to my home by serious illness and this is tbe first time I have been able to attend to busi ness matters.” Since the widow could not visit our office, we went to her home to get her application for monthly payments. Her delay In writing us, however, caused her to lose benefit checks for 3 months. Letter Number 3: “ My parents are moving to California. I am a- bout to be graduated from high school and expect to have a job in San Francisco. What I want to know is, if I get a social security account-number card before I go West, can I use it there, or will I have to have another card Issued tome In California?” Quitea num- of people asked this question. A social security card can be used anywhere in tbe United States re gardless of where it was obtained. Letter Number 4: “I am 67 years old but my husband is cntv 63 and is still working. Since I am past 65, please tell me if I can get old-age benefits based on my husband’s social security contribu tions?” She cannot. A worker’s •wife although 65 cannot receive monthly benefits on his wage re cord unless he is 65' and getting benefits. Letter Number 5: “I wish to make application for social securi ty. I am now 70. I left my job in a mill last January to take a Federal Government job. My wife is 68. We want to begin drawing benefits now. Could we do this while I am working for the Gov ernment?” This gentleman was requested to visit our office at once and to bring his wife They came in and filed their applications. Their monthly payments begin in February. Employment with the Federal Government does not pre- vent them from receiving monthly old-age and survivors insurance. Those who prefer long life might as well obey traffic regula tions; the habit may not guaran tee Immunity from injury but It w ill help. FIRST AIDto tke AILING HOUSE by Roger C. Wfitman QUESTION: There Ie a little crack directly over my sink where it forms a joint with the tflaster wall. The white plaster used for filling the crack always comes out What can be done? ANSWER: Before the war it was possible to get a neat, flexible metal moulding that was made for a crack such as yours, or to cover the crack at the top of a bathtub. If you can not find any of this, fill the crack with a light-colored caulking com pound. This resembles putty, but never becomes hard or brittle. Af ter forcing it into the crack, run your finger along the surface to smooth it, and after a few days, touch it up with enamel to match the wall. QUESTION: Is there any way to remove the discoloration on my new plastenvork caused by rain soaking through the sheathing and insula tion? ANSWER: Stains on the plaster from the rain have gone all the way through and cannot be removed. After the plaster has dried out you can paint the walls. The alterna tive is' to cut out the stained part of the plaster and replaster. ro SOOTHE E T C H R A S H O R TETTER Quicklv apply soothing and comforting GRAYS OINTMENT with its wholesome antiseptics and nature aiding medication.

By 10:30 Anne had packed all of his personal belongings into the three pigskin bags and the wardrobe trunk, which she dragged empty into the foyer of the apartm ent and filled there. Tom was never punc tual. He m ight come half an hour early or half an hour late, and she wanted to have everything ready in tim e so that she could be out when he-cam e. She did not linger over the pack ing or allow herself to feel anything, even when she put the set of cuff links and studs which had been her wedding gift to him and the silver- mounted m ilitary brushes she had given him on their first — and only —anniversary into the last bag. I wonder if anyone else in New York uses m ilitary brushes, she caught herself thinking. I never knew any other m an who did. A brief m ental picture came to her of Tom before the m irror, making a determined effort with the brushes to force his sandy hair to stay in place. Then as quickly as it had come she banished it. Surgical operations should be neat and clean. Even if it was something you were cutting out of your heart you musn’t linger over it. Only when the three bags were standing beside the trunk, in their scuffed sturdiness, strangely re minding her of Tom, did she have tim e to feel the emptiness within her. As if, in emptying the closet and bureau of his things, she had taken something from inside herself and packed it too. To escape the curious numbness which gripped her, she turned swift ly and went for her hat and coat. In getting them from the closet be side the front door she saw the large pad which hung there where Thelma, the maid, could not help seeing it both on arriving and leav ing. Thelma was a good worker, but forgetful. “Thelma—Please de frost refrigerator,” said last Thurs day’s note, reminding her that this was Saturday and Thelma would do no marketing for the weekend un less told. But Thelma might be gone before Anne returned, and — Anne hesitated. Then, do every thing just as always, she told her self. If you let go now, it’ll just hurt worse and longer. She slipped into her coat, forced herself to put on her hat with care. Then she took up the pencil that was tied to the pad by a red string and tried to think what she would need. Tomatoes, lettuce, oranges, bread, milk, coffee, she thought. Soup maybe. I don’t know. I don’t care what I eat. H er fingers were curiously stiff as she wrote carefully, in neat capi tals: NEEDED. She underscored the word, drew a line after it, then had just begun to write down the item s she wanted Thelma to buy when she heard the elevator begin its humming rise. Swift panic assailed her. It was early, but it might be Tom. He mustn’t find her here. To see him again, not knowing even now what it was that had gone wrong, would be more than she could face. H er carefully maintained self-possession probably would go in a flood of tears and with it the last rem nant of her pride, all that she had left, would be stripped from her. She dropped the pencil, leaving the note for Thelma barely begun, ran out the door and down the fire stairs before the elevator could reach her floor. It didn’t stop, after all. But the fear of being caught there by Tom’s arrival stayed with her until she was outside and hurrying across to Washington Square. Only when she reached the sm all park did she slow her pace. She found a bench in the cool sunshine and sat down. Then, watching the placid pigeons, the screeching children on skates, the mothers pushing carriages and the old men playing checkers, she tried to keep her thoughts turned from what was happening. But it wasn’t possible. Why? The question persisted in asking itself. What went wrong? Why didn’t it work out? She’d known it wouldn’t be easy. A sports writer, Tom often had to Marion something, fresh out of col lege and trying to be a reporter* And Tom, spending m ore and more of his tim e with her until Anne, with her own need for him so strong had, in her disappointment and in ability to guess what was wrong be tween them, provoked that scene which could not be made up. So now he was taking away his things . - • Anne looked at her wrist watch. In the turmoil of her thoughts, more than an hour had passed. She rose and thankfully started back toward the apartm ent. Tom certainly would have come and gone by now. Anyway it was over. She could start rebuilding her life somehow. At least, she was thinking as she put her key into the door, she had kept her emotions iif control. Then she opened the door. And all thought fled. He had not left. His trunk and bags were still there, and he was standing beside them. “Anne,” Tom said, as woodenly she closed the door behind her, holding to the knob for support. “Anne!” He took a step toward her. His voice was rough with urgency. She Swift panic assailed her as she heard the elevator begin its hum ming rise. He m ustn’t find her here. She left the m essage unfinished and hurriedly fled. be away for several days, some tim es even for we.eks. And the time when he was gone was just a series of em pty days and nights in which she missed him so much the sense of his absence was almost a physi cal ache. But she’d known how it would be, and knowing, had accepted the job of making their m arriage work. She had never fretted or wept when Tom had to be away. She’d kissed him goodby lightly and welcomed him back in the sam e spirit. She hadn’t clung to him when he left or fussed over him when he re turned. Men hated that. She had never let him guess the horrible loneliness that stayed with her when he was away on an as signment, lest it make him feel guilty for leaving her alone _ so much. And she’d kept her job, writing store copy, not because, she liked or needed it. but because it helped fill the days of waiting when he was away. But she hadn’t let the job come between her and the home she was trying to make for him . With the help of Thelma and much fore thought, she had kept it running so smoothly the mechanics of housekeeping never had obtruded upon the tim e they did have togeth er. And yet— . She still could not analyze it. Why Tom gradually had_become dissatis fied and restless. Had taken to making excuses for staying away even when he was not on an as signment. Theh had come the blonde girl, tried to turn, tried to open the door to flee, but his hands caught her. “Anne, we’ve been fools. Or at least I have. I need you. I know it. I never stopped knowing it. It was just that — you didn’t seem to heed m e.” “Didn’t need you, Tom?” In sur prise she ceased her blind efforts to release herself, to look up at him in astonishment. “ But I do. I’ve always needed you. The times when you were away—” And then, without warning, the tears came. It was the first tim e she ever had let him see her cry. Men hated weepy women, but when the tears were oVer, something cold washed away. She dried her eyes on Tom’s handkerchief and held her lips up for his kiss. And she knew then, somehow, what he m eant. She had made their m arriage a thing light and gay—and it had been too light, too gay. With her casual goodbys and her bright welcomes she had hid her emotions too well. That m en hate emotion had been her guiding principle. But a good m arriage has depths. A woman m ust feel needed; but so m ust a m an, too. In avoiding one extreme she had gone to another. Tom tried, in awkward sentences, to explain. Tried to tell her about the blonde Marion, whose need for his help and advice had almost made him think that he — But he didn’t have to explain. She under stood all he said, and more. Only when he finished was she bewil dered. “If you hadn’t let m e know, though,” Tom said then, his square, nicely ugly features twisted in a grin that was tight with the know ledge of how close their escape had been, “if you hadn't put it where I couldn’t m iss it—” But she was able to still the ques tion on her lips before it was spoken. For she saw the direction of his look, and followed it to see the message for Thelma which she had begun, directing her to buy tomatoes and other item s, but had not stayed to finish. And what the abruptly broken-off message said now, instead was: “NEEDED*-, TOM.” JhidiA fyft JmtA By NANCY PEPPER • OLD STUFF We know w hat you did with last year’s coat—you .cut it off into a shortie.

WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS Israel Registers Diplomatic Victory Dy Agreeing to ‘Cease Fire’ Order; Lewis Quits First Coal Conference ____________By BUt Schoentgen, W NU Staff Writer________ (EDITOR'S NOTEs Wh«n opinions are expressed In these columns, they are those of Western Newspaper Union's news analysts and not necessarily of this newspaper.)Western Newspaper PALESTINE: D iplom acy What the Jews of Israel lacked in armed strength to resist Arab at tacks against their new state they had made up in shrewd diplomacy. It was just possible that the deci sive blow of the Palestine w ar was struck when Israel, foreseeing mili tary defeat, agreed to order its arm y to cease fire on all Palestine fronts if the Arabs would do the same. That development, which took place as the battle for Jerusalem entered its sixth day in an unholy atmosphere of rattling guns, burst ing shell and violent death, made the most favorable impression pos sible in the United Nations. Thus having the onus of prolong ing the Palestine fighting shifted suddenly to their shoulders alone, the Arabs were put on the spot in the U. N. and in world public opin ion. It was a clever diplomatic maneu ver on the part of the Jews but, at least at the outset of this new line of circumstances, the Arabs were having none of it. They reiter ated their determination to wrest all Palestine from control of the Jews. Actually, all the Jews had done was to issue a surprise cease fire order in compliance with a U. N. security CQuncil request that the fighting be brought to a halt. Neither the security council nor anyone else had expected the re quest to be observed. But that put it up to the Arabs who, faced with a- deadline set by the U. N., were having trouble de ciding whether or not to cease fire. If they stopped fighting now they would have done so without attain ing their prime objective — the re voking of Israel’s claim to sov ereign statehood. If they continued the war beyond the deadline they would be laying themselves open to possible security council sanctions of the economic variety. SECURITY: D esperate P light President Truman came up with another sound plank to reinforce his campaign platform when he de manded that congress overhaul and broaden the social security pro gram. To relieve the “desperate” plight of the aged and needy in this infla tionary period he called for a 50 per cent increase in old age insurance benefits and asked that 20 million more persons be protected. He offered a five point program and said he wanted quick action on it. For three years, the Presi dent pointed out with some irrita tion, similar requests on his part have been shunted aside. This time he was asking: IA 50 per cent increase "at least” • in old age and survivors’ in surance benefits; allowing pension ers to earn up to $40 a month in stead of $15 without losing benefits; raising of the tax rate from I per cent to Vk per cent next January I. 2 Extension of coverage to farm • and domestic workers, the self-employed and others not now covered. 3 Broadening of unemployment * insurance to cover employees of small firm s (having fewer than eight workers), federal employees and others. 4 Disability insurance to protect • workers from loss of earnings caused by sickness and injuries. 5 Increased federal benefits to match state aid for dependent children, the needy, aged and blind. Whatever his motives in present ing the problem of inadequate so cial security benefits again at this time, Mr. Truman did have a good, even a noble, point. “People whose sole income is from social security payments have just about reached the breaking point. AU of them face a des perate struggle in trying to pro cure bare necessities at present prices.” Both President Truman and the aged and needy were hoping fer vently that congress would be able to squeeze social security legisla tion into the crowded docket it had prepared for the month preceding adjournment. As for congress itself, it was on the fence again. ECONOMICS: 1 W age-Price Wliile prices continue to climb steadily, wage increases are begin ning to show signs of levelling off. says the latest department of com merce report on inflation. Possibility of a business reces sion, and with it the prospect for lower prices, vanished like mist in the sun after the foreign aid and m ilitary preparedness programs began to take shape in March, the departm ent survey revealed. Walkout This photograph of m e west end of John L. Lewis going east oat of a door is perhaps symbolic of trouble to come in the nation’s soft coal mines. F irst conference between the United Mine Workers and the coal producers on the miners’ 1948 contract ended in frustration when Lewis walked out after refusing to seat a rep resentative of the Southern Coal Producers association a t the'par ley. NO CONFERENCE: Lew is A gm n It was all typically Lewisian. “I make the observation that there is now no conference,” quoth John L., chief of the soft coal miners, as he walked grandly out on the first meeting to negotiate a new contract between the coal operators and the United Mine Workers. UMWs present contract expires June 30. Lewis broke up the discussion on 1948 wage agreem ents when he ob jected to seating Joseph E. Moody, president of the Southern Coal Pro ducers association, at the confer ence and was outvoted by the operators. He was not against Moody per sonally. Officially, his union’s po sition was that the 14 regional or ganizations which comprise the Southern association must bargain in 14 separate groups, rather than delegate bargaining authority to the all-inclusive association. According to Lewis’ accepted pat tern of operation, his balk at the Southern Coal Producers was the opening tactical stroke in his 1948 campaign for an improved m iners’ contract. Following that, he could sit back and present the UMW wage de mands in his own good time. Then, if the coal operators did not ac cede, he. could call the annual strike. Lewis knew his position was good. The UMW1S recent pension walkout had left the nation’s coal reserves seriously depleted. By the tim e June 30 rolled around soft coal stocks would not yet have been built up to the point where industry could stand a long strike. Barring unforeseen circum stances, it looked like this would develop into another injunction case. . The union still is under an 80 day court injunction prohibiting re newal of the pension strike; but the court might rule that another walkout would be a brand new strike. In that case a new in junction might have to be sought by the government under Taft- Hartley procedure. HARVEST: E uropean Europe may look forward to pos- ibly its best year since the war if food production prospects con tinue to be as favorable as they are right now. U. S. agriculture departm ent said that the continent will produce a larger part of its food needs this year than it did last year and that the crop outlook was good over most of Europe and the Soviet Union early in May. Prospects indicate a considerably larger crop of bread grains — wheat and rye—than last year’s desper ately small one. A severe winter killed most of Europe’s winter wheat and rye last year. European production of bread grains m ay surpass 1.8 billion bushels, which was the size of the 1946 crop, largest since the war. Production last year dropped to about 1.5 billion bushels, compared with a 2.3 billion average before the war. Long Voyage Previous flight range Tecords paled into insignificance when an air force B-36 superbomber flew an unprecedented 8,000 miles non stop with a dummy bomb load of about five tons. It was aloft for a day and a half. The B-36 returned to the ground with about 1.200 gallons of gasoline remaining in its tanks, enough to keep it aloft another two or thre* hours if necessary. Veterans-Lose Again WAR VETERANS GOT AN OTHER KICK in the pants the other day when 23 vice presi dents of steel companies vetoed the allocation of 60,000 tons of steel for prefabricated housing. This m eans that veteran cooperatives, formed to finance prefabricated housing developments, will have to fold up or go in for the more ex pensive conventional houses, which most veterans can’t afford. The 23 steel vice-presidents are mem bers of a so-called steel prod ucts advisory committee to Com m erce Secretary Charles Sawyer which passes on volunteer steel al locations under a law passed by congress last year. However, the committee functions more like a little “supreme court” in determin ing who can buy steel. Also, it does more dictating than advising, apparently, for the com m erce departm ent had okayed the 60,000-ton allocation, a third of what the prefab industry requested for new lost-cost homes. The steel moguls pointed out that prefabricated houses require four times as much steel as con ventional homes built of wood, brick, et cetera. This explanation, however, is small comfort to war veterans and others who cannot afford conventional dwellings. American Veterans committee has made a vigorous protest to con gress about the steel magnates’ ac tion.* * * Psychological Warfare U. S. DEFENSE CHIEFS haven’t said so publicly, but one reason they have been so energetic in urg ing heavy, rearm am ent is the fear of another Pearl Harbor. Vividly remembering how General Mar shall was out horseback riding the morning of Pearl Harbor, they don’t want to be caught again. This is understandable. However, there is another kind of Pearl Harbor which m ay hit the I], s. this time. And U. S. defense chiefs will be just as guilty of ne glect if they are caught napping. The most important, neglected chapter of war-prevention today is psychological w arfare. Fou can call this propaganda, softening- the-enemy-from-the-rear or just plain winning friends. But the real tact is that this job of sell ing ideas, of making the people of another country believe in you, of winning the Russian people over to the U. S., has become al most the most im portant phase of modern peace and modern w ar fare. Actually it boils down to the art of making it difficult for the 14 men in the Kremlin to declare war by persuading the Russian people that they themselves don’t want war. At present, the Kremlin can take Russia into w ar overnight and the people have nothing to say about it. An A-I man, George Allen, has taken over this division, but he is still short of cash and barely had a chance to get started.* • • Truman Wants No Advice REMINISCING WITH FRIENDS RECENTLY, Mayor David Law rence of Pittsburgh, who is Demo cratic national committeeman from Pennsylvania, uncorked the follow ing barbed comments: “Back in the days when I used to call on Franklin Roosevelt, he always made a point of asking m e: ’How are things going in Pennsyl vania? What are they saying about m e?’ “F. D. R - alw ays wanted to know, the score, especially about any trends in public opinion. But Harry Trum an, while I admire his.honesty and sincerity, never asks us questions like that. It isn’t that he isn’t interested, but be depends too much on a little clique of White House advisers to tell him what’s going on in the country. And more often than not he gets bum advice, “When the Democratic national committee had its last meeting in Washington, we expected Chairman Howard McGrath to invite us to get our problems off our chests' when we called on the President. We thought that would be the first order of business, as it used to be in the old days. But neither Mc Grath nor the President made a move to ask us. Finally, some of us spoke up on our own. "Yes, there’s a big change at the White House,” concluded Mayor Lawrence, “and I doubt that it’s helping the party.”,v * * * Marinss Paint Houses THE MARINE CORPS has a great record — from the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli. But in Washington m arine brass- hats seem to think that enlisted men are to be used on such un- heroic jobs as bartending and housecleaning. . Recently it was a new kind of war. The marines were sent over the top as bousepainters. For 12 hours a day they painted the house of the assistant com manding general. W a s h i n g t o n D i p e S u Diary D oesn't H ave to Tell Earth-Shaking O ccurrences By BAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator WASHINGTON.—'The nation, and particularly the nation’s capital, where we are highly national and international-conscious, is suffering as never before from the result of memories, good and bad. The Roosevelt epoch produced a rash of reminiscences—200 books about FDR, 32 of them just since his death. Currently we have with us the Churchill war memoirs, as they are called, although when I was young and read “The Memoirs of Sherlock Holmes,” I thought a memoir was something printed after a m an’s death. Of course Sherlock came back, so I suppose that legitimizes the termi nology. Winston Churchill was a great diary-keeper, as was his fellow- countryman, Samuel Pepys, whose ■ stuff was so hot I tr'ltk ! that the British government still h a s n’t released all of it. Frank lin R oosevelt never kept a diary. His sec- retary of the treasu ry made up for this lack. H enry Morgen- thau assembled 900 volumes of about 350 pages each, to taling about 80 million words. The task m ust have kept three stenographers a day working in relays. He had the diaries bound, some said at government expense, although I daresay he paid for it in the end. His was a lazy method. He didn’t have to depend on his memory. He had a dictograph in his office, and every word spoken in the supposed sanctity of his chamber in the treasury, overlooking the wide sweep of lawn and park that flows down to the Potomac, was duly tran scribed. When the news , of this epic achievement became public a terrible howl resulted and some of Ute volumes were returned to the government archives. What a m an! I wonder if diary-keepers are normal. I would hate to adm it to a psychologist that I have kept a diary for years, even decades. I still keep one. I don’t know how long ago I started, but I still have one slim, green volume, dated 1904, in m y possession. The year 1904— that was just 15 years after another entry, not in m y diary, but in my father’s (diary-keeping is congeni tal) which stated "fine boy arrived 5 p. m .” I m ay say the “fine” is the natural exaggeration of a proud parent who didn’t know what he was in for. At any rate, if diary-keeping is used against me, I have two outs —hardly anything, even of mild in terest, is or will be recorded on the faded pages of m y journals, and secondly, because I write such a vile hand that I can decipher only a few lines here and there myself. My mother should have most of the blam e for m y bad handwriting, just as she is to blame for the fact that I can write at all. She was herself a writer and, unique as it was in those good old days, she possessed a typewriter, a stubby little affair, affectionately known as “the Blick.” Of course it was quite improper to expose a child of pre-school age to a typewriter. It was not m y mother’s fault. Back in the ’90s, some of us weren’t vaccinat ed for anything but smallpox. I was too young to understand that at the tim e, and since typewriters were as rare as porcelain bath tubs in a city of 20,000, who could guess their evil influence? I sup pose I oughtn’t to accuse my par ents because I became thorough ly inured to the use of the type writer long before I could balance a pencil, and this fact did my handwriting no good. At that tim e what was called “Spencerian” still was taught in the schools of New York state, but very few m astered it even without the curlicues and shading of earlier days. And just as I was getting so I could m ake the wobbly “M’s” and the terrible “q’s”, along came a new Pharoah to my scholastic Egypt and introduced the “verti cal system .” That was probably wheremyuneducation really began. I unlearned the Spencerian all right, but I was never able to go vertical. Nothing Important Is Ever Entered But to get back to diary-keeping, at least my diary-keeping. The illegibility of the entries in my diaries isn’t really as important as the unimportance of their contents. Let m e illustrate from one with a worn leather cover which I have at hand. It is dated 1914, a good year for a diary, but a bad diary for the world. The record of war days should have been chronicled dramatically as the beginning of the end of an epoch, an epoch which breathed its last in the midst of another war. But did my record do that? Let’s look at June 29, 1914. Do we find the entry: "YESTER DAY ARCHDUKE FERDINAND WAS ASSASSINATED AT SARAJE VO?” We do not. We find this: Juin 29. Lundi S. Pierre, S. P aul. Bought Berlitz Greek Rustem Bey (The book was purchased in Paris, where the year’s record began. The entry was m ade in Washington.) While the ancient throne of Haps- burg. was receiving the blood bath that was to sweep a half dozen rulers into oblivion I was buying a Berlitz textbook for the purpose of studying some foreign language —I have no idea which one except that it was one I never learned. Rustem Bey, I rem em ber was the Turkish am bassador whom I had to interview. In all justice, it may not be en tirely the fault of m y diary-mak ing that I didn’t record the assas sination of the archduke. Nobody in America took the tragedy very seriously. At that tim e few Amer icans expected much else from Europe’s royal families but as sassinations or less respectable peccadillos. I ought to have known better than that since I had been helping cover the French foreign office for the two years preceding. But I had been drenched with war talk over there and had shaken it off when I returned. Exnrope almost imme diately shrank into a dream y do m ain of picture-book memory with no connection whatever with my work-a-day world. Later on, to be sure, there is evi dence that I, on second thought, felt I hadn’t done my diary jxistice insofar as Ferdinand was con cerned. But I always was feeling that way about my diary and never doing anything about it. This, as I said, keeps my diaries from having the slighest value other than to exude a somewhat conscious-stricken odor and re mind m e that the good young days were no better than those bad old ones insofar as my habits and con duct were concerned, for an honest diary certainly has to be well edit ed to conceal one’s true character. You ndte in its pages some high resolve or noble undertaking which was more important to you at the moment of recording than the open ing of the Panam a canal or the re sult of a presidential election.)In a short year you read it over and are utterly unable to recall the slightest thing about the events chronicled. Sometimes my old diaries, even though they record no event of great historical significance, sound quite timely. For example on Oc tober 3,' 1914: “ Not much doing. I don’t seem to be able to save m y money.” . . . October 8: “The Belgian secretary appears, we consume quantities of beer and tells m e his life story—a bore, but business.” (just the weary rontine of the hard-working reporter) - Fortimately my space is running out. Nothing is more interesting to write or Tead-Sbout than oneself. Nothing is less interesting to anyone else. But I wish to prove my point, namely, that no m atter how impor tant diary-keeping m ay have been for the Churchills, the Marco Polos or the Plutarchs, and perhaps therefore as harmful as important, mine was neither. And I m arvel that any news man, press or radio, who* lives in the midst of alarm s, who “was there” when most things hap pened and told all in breathless detail via the copy-desk or micro phone to millions of wide-eyed readers or listeners would ever think of writing it down after- ward. Note for instance a recent diary entry for Jxme 5, 1947, \yhich a brittle clipping of even date de clares not only vibrantly but with perfect inexactitude “m ay go down in history as the day of the begin ning of the real peace after World W ar II.” (Lest you have forgotten, that was the day Secretary of State George C. Marshall proposed at H arvard university a new approach to European rehabilitation which later became the Marshall plan, then E.R.P. and finally the eco nomic cooperation administration.) Note my diary for that date: “A meeting of the Association of Radio News Analysts. Kalten- born to dinner.” Build This Set of Lawp Furnitnrc Yccrself.

C. m h , Healthy Plants Needed To Assure Good Crop Sturdy Growth Hinges On Well-Fertilized Soil Healthy plants, like healthy hu mans, are better fitted to fight off insect and disease attacks than are undernourished ones. Enem ies have s tougher tim e getting under the guard of well fed plants. Such plants have stronger root system s and hardier, better developed growth above ground. They can stand on their "feet” and defend themselves. MTiether your crops are well fed or undernourished depends on the con dition of your soil. If your soil is loose, mellow, high in organic m at ter, of good tilth and carries plenty of plant food, it can give your crops a body-building diet. If your soil is worn down by overcropping and m •O'/ft. //f< failure to put back plant nutrients and organic m atter, it cannot sup port healthy, sturdy crop growth. Any farm er can build his soil’s fertility and crop producing ability by good managem ent methods. He can get bigger crop yields per acre through use of fertilizer carrying nitrogen, phosphate and potash as needed. He can build soil structure by growing deep-rooted legumes such as alfalfa or sweet clover in th e rotation. Roots of the legumes w ill open tight soil and let air and water in. Plowed under, the legumes w ill add to the soil’s organic m at ter supply. Crops following in the rotation will have m ore "elbow room” to seek w ater and nutrients deep down in the soil. The organic m atter supply can be further in creased by returning m anure and crop afterm ath to the soil.

Legumes, Grasses and Cereals Used for Silage The term grass silage now in cludes all ensiled crops except corn and the sorgos and is different from them in that special precautions must be taken upon ensiling for the best preservation. Grass silage m ay be m ade suc cessfully from m any crops. Le gumes, such as alfalfa, clovers, soy beans, lespedeza and peas; cereals, such as oats, wheat, rye and barley; grasses, such as timothy, Sudan grass, canary grass, brome grass and orchard grass, and m ixtures of these crops. The illustration by Purdue univer sity shows method of dumping silage that saves to labor and quality. Activated Charcoal Used To Prevent 2,4-D Harm Crop plants can be protected from harm by 2,4-D used for killing weeds by pre-planting treatm ent with powdered activated charcoal. The treatm ent is of especial value for crops that are set out as young plants already rooted. This is done by dusting the roots with the ac tivated charcoal powder before planting, greatly reducing loss caus ed by 2,4-D. W hat will it BE ?

The Messiah Lesson for Jane 20, 1948 Dr. Newton THE hope for the Messiah first revealed to Adam in Genesis 3:15, and repeated to Abraham, Moses, David and Isaiah, was now proclaimed through Ezekiel, Daniel and Zech- ariah. Here we have the hope of preser vation, the hope of peace, the hope of security, the hope of usefulness, the hope of deliver ance, the hope of dominion, the hope of service, the hope of sovereign ty, the hope of redemption and the hope of purification. . . . A PROMISE FROM GOD THIS is no fancied scheme of m an, It is God’s clear promise. "Therefore will I save m y flock, and I will set up one Shepherd over them, and he shall feed them . . . and I the Lord have spoken it.” God goes on to promise them peace by ridding them of danger, and security through his blessing upon the land. “There shall be showers of blessing.” LOOKING FOR A BETTER WAY LONG had the people looked for a better way. Now God would pro vide that better way. It would bfe vouched safe unto them through the Good Shepherd. He knows the way, he holds the key. IHie wistful hearts of the people m ust have been lifted up as Ezekiel and Zechariah shouted their prophe cies of the coming Messiah. Many of these very passages have been used for the anthem s which our choirs sing today. Weil m ay every Christian employ them to tell of that better way in the m idst of this troubled, changing world about us. DANIEL’S DREAM OF THE DELIVERER THE passage in Daniel is resonant with hope. “I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of m an cam e with the clouds of heaven.” This dream of Daniel was a vision of the Messiah, bringing dominion, glory and a kingdom—a kingdom for all people, nations and languages. It is the universal hope of the ages, brought nearer through this inspired vision of the prophet. "F or unto us a child is born, and unto us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoul der; and his nam e shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, P rin ce of Peace.” This vision of the coming Messiah set every bell ringing in the heart of humanity.. . . SAVIOUR AND KING FOREVER ALL THE promises are embodied in these passages—Jesus the Saviour, Jesus the King, Jesus the Sanctifier. Here was hope for the Jews, and. for all mankind. It was proclaimed through Jewish prophets, and Jesus was born of a Jewish m other. Favored, indeed, was that race. And although there be many who have rejected the Messiah, he fulfills the deepest meaning of every m an’s hope. With Charles Wesley we sing: Hail, thou long-expected Jesus, Born to set thy people iree; From our tins and fears release us, Let us find our rest in thee. Bom tby people to deliver, Bom a child, and yet a King, Bom to reign in us forever, Notv thy gracious kingdom bring.

No Grim Struggle To become a musician you don’t grit your teeth for a grim struggle. The basic fact for successful living is that life is eager to serve you. Approach it, then, in faith. "Fear not, little flock, it is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the king dom !”—Virgil Kraft. Judging Men Soybeans Planted with Corn Soybeans need plenty of nitro gen to grow. If they are planted with com they will either-get nitro gen' from the soil or from the air. If they are -inoculated before plant ed they will get nitrogen from the air and leave the. nitrogen fertil- .Izer that has been applied for the com. But if the soybeans are not inoculated, they will compete against the com for the nitrogen fertilizer which has been applied, which means that the com will get very little of it. Flameproof Cotton Insolation Flameproof cotton insulation, used only in residences when first developed in 1940, has gained sat isfactorily acceptance in more than a score of diversified commercial and industrial applications. Illus trating the wide range of its use fulness, a large West coast manu facturer of nationally-distributed hot water heaters is using flame proof cotton insulation to retain heat within the units, while sever al manufacturers of cold drink box es, refrigerators and dedp-freeze units are using the same material to keep cold in and heat out. Many churches in both large cities and small towns have selected cotton insulation for a dual purpose—for heat and cold insulation and as an acoustical insulator, to prevent out side noise from disturbing services. Old “ Pioneer” Dusted off Por Chicago Rail Pageant Chicago’s first locomotive, which hasn't operated under its own pow er for nearly 70 years, will have a starring role in the “Wheels a Rolling’’ pageant at the Chicago railroad fair this summer. The 112-year old "Pioneer” loco motive will bum wood and carry its own water for steam in a bar rel In its tender, just as it did in 1848 when it made its initial trial run out of Chicago for the Galena and Chicago Union railroad, fore bearer of the Chicago and North western railway system. The locomotive that began Chi cago’s era of railroading has been famous since 1890. It appeared in three large fairs—the Chicago Co lumbian exposition of 1893, the St. Louis exposition of 1904, and the World’s Fair (Century of Progress) in Chicago In 1933-34. One of the oldest locomotives In existence today, the "Pioneer” was third-hand when it was brought to Chicago on the brig “Buffalo” from the East. The initial run of the 10-tcs locomotive was 10 miles —five miles out into the prairie and back. That was on October 25, 1848. The “Pioneer” has one pair of driving wheels 54 inches in dia meter, and two pair of lead wheels. Its top speed was 25 miles an hour. CLASSIFIED DEPARTMENT TRAVEL The FeUean Lodge. Pessagrille Beach.

Interesting Data Gleaned By Yale Dames Questions Typical Yale student’s wife is 25 years old, has one child between one and two years old and comes from Connecticut or New York state. Her husband is 27 and a graduate student in engineering or law. This average couple has been at Yale between two and three years and-expects to be here for another year. This information is based on a survey of more than 200 Yale couples which was just completed by the “Yale Dames Yearbook”, published by the Yale Dames, an organization of students’ wives. A total of 223 out of the 315 wo men in the Yale Dames responded to the questionnaire. It is estimat ed that there are approximately 1,000 wives of Yale students living in New Haven and its vicinity. Most married students are veter ans. Yale wives range In age from 19 to 45 years and their husbands,1 from 20 to 46 years. Thirty-three1 wives are older than their hus bands and 49 are the same age. Two wives refused to teU their ages. According to the questionnaire, most students’ wives are home makers and mothers. Of the cou ples questioned, 106 have a total of 136 children. Seventy-eight couples have one child,- 26 have two children and two couples have three. There is a total of 71 boys and 65 girls, the latter including one set of twins. Twenty-six couples have children less than one year old; 46 have children between one and two; 26 have children between two and three; 18 have children between three and four; 15 have children between four and 10, and five have children between 10 and 16 Rapid Growth of Softball Of all games in the United States, that of softball has had the most rapid arid remarkable growth. It made its debut some 50 years ago. At the time baseball players who wanted to continue action during the winter months devised what was called indoor baseball, which was to provide play in enclosures. Since even the largest was small, in comparison with a regular base ball field, it was necessary to cre ate a large and a soft ball, which could not be hit the great distances possible with a regular baseball.

BENSON PresMnit--Metiief CetUft Seertf. Arteesee New Light on Profit Some industrial leaders nowadays re fer to that old joker item, "profit,” in a new way. Annual reports of corpora tions are beginning to list profit more !properly as that part of the sales dollar spent for "use of the tools.” This is an understandable way to designate what ever money is paid to stockholders or kept in the business for reinvestment or expansion. K American workers have good tools they turn out good products at reason able prices. Without good tools the pic ture would be different. We do have good tools and good plant's, better than any other nation. But these things did fiot come by accident. These tools have accumulated because all of us have been free to save and invest. We have put savings into tools of production. These things are our capital. Capital at Work A hundred years ago each workman had only $550 invested for his use in the form of tools. Today more than 11 times this amount, or about $6,000 worth of tools, is back of the average American workman in his productive efforts. In terms of purchasing power, our average workman's wages have increased about five fold, even though he works only half as many hours as he did then. Tools, then are important to all of us. Where do they come from ? The price of these better tools (sometimes they’re expensive tools) has come from people able to save from their incomes a little surplus to invest. Most of these folks to day are in the income bracket of $5,000 or over. But through life insurance and bank savings, nearly everybody in Am erica participates in these purchases of tools. Danger Signs Obviously, we have a high standard of living partly because of the labor- aiding tools we have accumulated. That is fine. But we must not forget that it is possible for America to have such na tional policies that tool investments are not forthcoming. In fact, during 1930 to 1940 when our account in tools (capi tal) slipped downward 19.4 per cent, we found that our economy went backward rather than forward. Looking at the record, we see that most of our tools were accumulated in the generation prior to 1929. Prom 1920 to 1930 new capital flowed to industry at the average rate of 6 billion dollars a year. But the years from 1933 to 1945 were dangerous years. During that pe riod a yearly average of less than half a billion dollars went into tools for our workers to use. Tools or Taxes? What was the trouble? One trouble was that government had entered the picture and had begun to siphon funds away from the capital market. Tool money was turned into taxes. New tools became scarce. People were afraid to invest. Even after the government had spent its part of the savings taken in taxation, depression remained and mil lions were still unemployed. We needed money turned to tools and incentive, not to .taxes. Unsound taxation policies must not be allowed to get in the way of good tools and incentive investments. Today our corporations are retaining smaller profits than may be turned into tools. In 1946, though it was the best year on record, manufacturing establishments averaged only 5 cents profit (use of tools) out of the sales dollar. The cor poration average was less , than that. We must not forget the importance of tools. We need profit, for profit means tools. DAVIE BRICK COMPANY DEALERS IN GOOD COAL Day Phone 194 • Night Phone 119 Mockaville. N. C.

Who doesn’t relish a meal centered about barbecued chicken, chicken a la king, chicken pot pie, chicken gumbo and rice and dozens of other “company” dishes made from chicken? With your own canned chicken you are ready to make them! One or two-year-old chickens are better than younger ones for can ning. Confine 12 to 24 hours before killing, giving water but no feed. Kill six to 12 hours before canning. Avoid bruising. Bleed thoroughly. Pluck, singe, and wash with mild soap. Rinse well. Cut skin between legs and body; then bend logs until hip joints snap. Slip knife under ends of shoulder blades and cut up to wings. Pull back and breast apart. Remove en trails. Rinse, dry, and chill the fowl. Do not salt. Feet may be used in making broth. Do not can liver and gizzard with other parts of fowl. To cold pack chicken, separate raw fowl at joints and pack into hot Ball Jars. Add one teaspoon salt to each quart. Add no liquid. Process 100 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. The hot pack method requires that the fowl be boiled, steamed or baked until from one-third to one-half done. Separate at joints and pack hot into hot Ball Jars. Cover with boiling broth. Salt to taste and process 90 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. A REALLY “FANCY” SPREAD Wrap w # f S I , f ’ * .

Hitfh Point. N. C. R4 As we observe the failure of multitudes of our youth today we realize there is a vast cause for it. In fact we might say that there are many causes, and these climax In a few that are outstanding One of the main causes of their failure in life failure to reach life’s best and highest achievements, and a lack of real success in something great and worth while is a lack of high aims and noble purposes. We accomplish and achieve in life according to our aims and pur poses. No one rises higher than he aims; no one accomplishes more than he purooses. Tf one’s aims and purposes are low, and be con tinues to live on that leve, he will climb no higher. Of course it i* easier to go down grade than it is to climb upward, but there is no honor in it, no greatness, no real and true success. Trulv great men and women turn from the road downward, and from all the degrad ing and demoralizing evils of the world, and give themselves unto God, then aim high and purpose sublimely. Men do not rise higher than thev aim; they do not accomplish more than they purpose. The h!?he«t aim and most noble and sublime purpose is to live for God and His will. This will bring to one and all the best and most marvelous success and outcome, both for time and eternity. We believe that every youth of onr nation today, who has the blessing of common sense, could become burning and shining lights, bless and uplift tbeir fellow, men, make thier mark, and know that life is a success rather than a failure This should be the crown, ing glory of every life. No one lives in vain when his life is deeply consecrated to God, along with high aims and noble purposes to which he devotes bis time, talents and energies. He may not win fame, but he will gain the blessed approval of God, which is far better. A genius without high aims and noble purposes will bless his countrv and leave his infl nence behind to live after him. Amen. ilBT L 3 General DOUGLAS MacARTHUB KEYNOTER OWIGUl B.

Now the guest who bites into a crisp piece of watermelon preserve looks at his hostess with new re je c t and admiration. “Just the right touch to this fine meal,” he is apt to pro nounce. That crisp texture is something to be prized. To obtain it, soak the rind two or three hours in lime water to cover. The lime water is prepared by adding one tablespoon of slaked lime (calcium oxide) to each quart of cold water. (If you prefer a tex ture more like that of preserved pears, soak the rind overnight in salt water—two tablespoons salt to each quart of water.) These hints and the following rec- —Photo courtesy BaU Bros.

Drain and drop into cool sirup made with the sugar, two quarts of water, and juice of one lemon. Boil gently one hour. Add the second lemon, sliced thin. Continue boiling untfl rind is tender and the sirup thick as honey. (If the sirup gets too thick before the rind is tender, add a cup or more of boiling water.) Let stand several hours.

Our County And Social Security By Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy, Manager. “That story. Mrs. Duffy, cer tainly points out a need for older workers to stop a moment and fiod out about tbeir old-age insurance rights.” Thus expressed your editor Lfter our conversation about a case in which benefits were lost Wbeu a man makes a will, he tells his wife where be keeps it and what to do about it, He does tbe same about a life insurance policy. If be has a bank -account, his wife often knows as much about tbat account as he does. There are millions of workers wbo have so cial security accounts • but not all workers and tbeir wives know how to cash in on tbat account at the proper time. Your editor’s remark was prompted by a case illustrat- ing this lack of knowledge. Tbe case was one about an old furniture worker, who was not only self-reliant but proud of his good health at age 67. His pride lost him social security benefits. This old fellow bad worked for 50 years in bis trade. He had been able to pay for his bome and to put something aside for his old age. One day he began to have dizzy spells. At first he was able to work the better part of every day, but Bnallv he reached the point where it was a tremendous effort for him to even get out of bed. He finally bad to stop altogether. He felt that since be bad never been sick a day in his life before this, that he’d get better and soon go back to work. He. also, felt that if be Gled for bis old.age benefits, it would mean tbat he wasn’t going to get better and wouldn’t be able to eo back to work. He didn't understand the provisions of his benefit rights under Old-Age and Survivors Insurance. A iter not- working for six months, bis employer told him that he should visit our office and get bis benefits. Well, be came in, but still fighting proud. Said be would take his old age payments tempo rarily. It’s too bad he didn’t come in rigbt away when he got sick and file a application then. He would have gotten a payment for every month he didn’t work. Hls wife, also 65, would have received payments for each month in which be did. Gen. Douglas MacArthur seems to be a good and useful man who is sometimes misunderstood even by himself.—Reidsville Review. THE DAVIE RECORD, MOCKSVILLE, N. C. WEEKLY N E W S A N A LYSIS Farm GroupsOK Brannau Choice; Truce Request Fails iu Palestine; GM Wage Paet Could Set Pattern _ _ _ _ _ _ _ By Bill Schoentgen, W NU Staff Writer_____ <EDITOR’S NOTE: When opinions «r« expressed In these columns, they ere Western Newspaper Union's news analysts and not necessarily of this new A PP R O V E D : B rannan President Trum an's choice of Charles F. Brannan to succeed Clinton Anderson as secretary of agriculture has received the whole hearted approval of the national farm organizations. They consider' the 44-year-old form er assistant secretary of agri culture “a friend of the farm er.” One of the bases for this feeling of harmony is the fact that Bran- nan and the farm organizations con cur in thinking that the prewar parity law is badly outdated. Such crops as soybeans, for in stance, have attained a much great er importance since the law was passed but still have no satisfactory price fixing basis. Other farm ers, including cattle and dairy produc ers, claim their parity scales are out of line in this postwar period. Ideas developed by Brannan to help remedy this situation have been largely adopted by the lead ing farm groups and are incorpo rated in bills now pending before congress. Unless congress acts by- the end of this year the law guar anteeing farm prices at 90 per cent of the fixed parity rate will expire. Serving quietly as assistant sec retary of agriculture for the past four years, Brannan has made himself the backbone of the ad ministration’s drive to enact a long- range farm program. Thus, the farm ers think a lot of Brannon because he has demon strated that he is looking out for their interests in a realistic, level headed fashion. President Truman, it appeared had made a good choice in putting Brannan at the head of the de partment. Almost everybody was satisfied, and that, in an election year, was a most desirable situa tion for Mr. Truman. F A IL U R E : No Peace It was difficult to say who would suffer more from the Arabs’ rejec tion of U.- N. truce plea for Pales tine — the Arabs themselves, the Jews or the United Nations, Probably the Jews came off to better advantage in the world coun cils of public opinion, inasmuch as through their willingness to accept a truce they now can appear in the role of a nation which has been wronged and is forced to fight a w ar that has been thrust willy nilly upon it. The Arabs simply brushed aside the idea of a truce with the con tention that they could not halt the shooting war until the state of Israel is abandoned and the Jewish arm y demobilized. There never was any question in the minds of Arab lead ers about the truce. It was literal ly unacceptable to them. Their position was stated definitively by the Egyptian premier, Mahmoud Fahmy Nokrashy Pasha, who said: “There never wiU be founded a state called Israel, or any other name, as long as the creation of that state relies upon the theft of Arab land, the extermination of Its Arab owners and the sacrifice of m oral principles of its Arab neigh bors.” Nevertheless, the Arab refusal was a bitter blow to the U. N. security council. It had been or ganized for the express purpose of resolving just such disputes as this one in Palestine, yet it could do nothing more than make a weak gesture of placation. There was little doubt that the se curity council had been rendered toothless and impotent on the Pal estine issue by the U. S. attitude, or rather lack of attitude, toward the whole thing. What position the United States would take as an individual nation with regard to the Palestine war was not clear either. At a conference with Chaim Waizmann, Israel’s president, Pres ident Truman promised that the U. S. would provide financial sup port for Israel in the form of a loan of about 100 million dollars. Further, he hinted at the possibility that unless the Arab states cease fire the U. S. might provide arm s for the Jews. Day after the conference, how ever, Mr. Truman dismissed Weiz- m ann’s plea for a loan as some thing that could be handled by the export-import bank, and he com pletely ducked the issue of raising the embargo on arm s shipments to the Middle East. No Quarter TtANS 40IDAN ISRAEL Fires of w ar between Arab and Jew continued to burn in the Holy Land when the Arab states re fused to comply with a V. N. re quest for a truce. Attacking Jew ish forces at all points, the Arabs said they would not quit until the Jews renounced their new state of IsraeL Meanwhile, as victorious Haganah troops took over Acre (I), Egyptian planes intensified the air attack on TeI Aviv. (2) and Arab troops enjoyed their great est victories in Jerusalem <3). P A Y H IK E : Netv F orm ula When General Motors corporation averted a threatened strike of 225,- 000 auto production workers by of fering an 11-cent raise based on a cost-of-living formula it probably set a precedent which will be fol lowed in settling other industrial labor disputes. Under the agreement, described as an “entirely new approach to the living cost problem,” GM pro duction workers get an 8-cent cost- of-living increase and a 3-cent pay boost based on annual industrial efficiency improvement. Terms provide that wages be ad justed up or down each three months to conform with fluctua tions in the consumer price index of the bureau of labor statistics. It appeared to be a sound plan and one that might be followed to good advahtage by other industries. Biggest flaw in the scheme was the fact that General Motors might have to pass the cost-of-living raise on to the public, which step might have the eventual effect of nullifying the benefits of the raise to the workers. Significance of this adjustable cost-of-living wage formula can be seen in a review of the rise in prices since 1940. The cost of liv ing today is 69 per cent higher than in 1940. Using 1940 as a base year —which is what GM and the United Auto Workers did in arriving at their agreement—living costs now are at 169 per cent. Biggest jump in the steadily ris ing price pattern came after OPA collapsed in the summer of 1946. VOICE: B elittling Voice of America broadcasts, which have never received a full m easure of congressional approval, sank to an even lower level of disesteem because of a series of ill-starred program s beamed to Latin America last winter. The scripts in question, denounced by senators as sabotage, slander and libel of the U. S., first attracted attention in March during house appropriation committee hearings on the Voice of America. In the sample script that the committee wanted to look over were some ill- chosen rem arks about Wyoming. Stout-hearted Wyoming congress men shrieked in anguish. Other scripts were examined, and Sen. Homer Capehart (Rep., Ind.) fin ally aired the whole thing before the senate.’ The legislators shuddered as they heard Capehart read from the scripts such excerpts as: . “New England was founded by hypocrisy and Texas by sin.” “Nevada’s two main cities com pete with each other because peo ple get m arried in Las Vegas and divorced in Reno.” The programs were handled by the National Broadcasting company under contract with the state department. Rene Borgia, the m an who wrote the scripts, was fired, and Alberto Gandero, Borgia’s su pervisor, resigned. FEWER BENEFITS LOST People Are Discovering Social Security Although inadvertent loss of bene fits rem ains a m ajor problem, the number of persons who deprive themselves of old-age and survivors insurance benefits because they de lay filing their claims is decreas ing steadily. That report has been made by the Federal Security agency’s so cial security administration. In announcing the improvement, O. C Pogge, director of the administra tion’s bureau of old-age and sur vivor’s insurance in Baltimore, said: “Our continuing efforts to inform workers of their benefit rights have resulted in increased public aware ness that old-age and survivors in surance benefits are payable only if they are claimed." ?

CORNB ALL: For B reakfast Some of the more sentimental hands around the American Broad casting company’s Chicago studios like to thmk of Don McNeill as a beautiful and vibrant symbol of the rise and snowballing success of ABC itself. At least they both were young together and both had to fight their way up through a welter of opposable circum stances to find ad joining places in the sun. As toastm aster of the uninhibited * '9UHVWI Breakfast Club pro- ;l Jj gram , McNeill wiU ■ 'M- M W S celebrate his 15th anniversary on June 23 with the same kind of capers he has been executing five days a week between 8 and 9 a. m. since 1933. Despite the subterranean regard which this sophisticated generation purports to hold for the more di rect and obvious types of humor, McNeill has found that being a comball pays off. He works with out a script and his gags are strict ly off-the-cuff. He once invited a herpetologist (a student of reptiles and amphib ians) who visited the program, to “Come into the parking lot after the broadcast and I’ll show you a rare specimen. A windshield viper.” And when a New Jersey woman told him that her husband is a butcher and she is a corsetiere, he commented, “What an ideal ar rangem ent. He fattens them up and you pull them in.” McNeill parlays this kind of ex temporaneous patter' with a feeling of genuine cam araderie for the plain people who are guests on his show to produce a program that has had a nationwide cult of early morning listeners begging for more for 15 consecutive years. McNeiU Unhealthy Families Fam ilies with two children are “socially unhealthy,” however fash ionable they m ay be, the National Congress of Parents and Teachers in Cleveland was told by a Univer sity of Chicago professor of educa tion, Robert J. Havighurst. “ A significant section of our population now have too few chil dren to reproduce themselves,” he told delegates to the annual con vention. W a sh in g to n DiffcSu Throttling of Small Business Can Kill Democratic System By BAUKHAGE N ew s A n a ly s t a n d C o m m e n ta to r WASHINGTON.—Over in England, where the majority voted to accept socialism because they felt the 400-year-old “capitalistic ex periment” had been a failure, they are finding that you can’t vote yourself into a prosperity any more than you can vote yourself mto morality. There are still a lot of Britohs who think they have been voted out of the frying pan into the fire. Prim e M inister Clement Attlee, in a recent report to the Labor party, admitted that conversion into socialist democ racy was a long hard task, longer than they had imagined. “We are engaged in a great ven ture,” Attlee said, “We are trying to build a great, free, socialist democracy.” He warned that a so c ie ty changed by |fu n democratic !m ethods is apt to Iflose the “habits ||o f democracy.” I suppose he m eant by that that so cialism had to come ' by evolu tion, which is an ancient axiom of the more conser vative. socialists. S F ' ' - C Jm m pi! J Communists s a y can come only by revolution. Attlee also said that socialism was a way of life—not an economic theory. That will be questioned by some people. He added that social ism demanded a higher standard of citizenship than does capitalism. Some people will quarrel with that too. Many will say that it isn’t that capitalism doesn’t demand ,a higher standard of citizenship, but simply that capitalism (or any other known system, for that m at ter) doesn’t always get it. Capitalism fails, when it does fail, not because there is any thing wrong with free enterprise or competition, but because some tim es the standard of morality or standard of citizenship if you will, running the system, bogs down. Then free enterprise is shackled and competition destroyed. The anti-trust laws were passed to punish people who tried to check free enterprise by killing compe tition. Those laws wouldn’t be needed, government intervention wouldn’t be needed, if the standard of mor ality, of citizenship, were high enough among the people who con trol enterprise. Long before the war, and increasingly so when shortages began to appear later, big business began crowding small business out of existence. Because of war conditions and the powerful influence of big busi ness, the small buyer couldn’t com pete. He wasn’t able to get the raw m aterials. Small business is the keystone of capitalism. According to the Com mittee on Economic Development, 98 per cent of the business units In this country employ 50 people or less. Those “business units” of course aren’t limited to manufac turing firms—they include the road side hotdog stand, the one - woman hand laundry, the tea room, and the country store as well as the busi ness men producing manufactured items on a small scale. If this 98 per cent of a capi talistic country’s business isn’t prosperous, capitalism can’t suc ceed. In fact you can’t have capitalism when big industrial groups monopolize business any more than you can have it when the state monopolizes business. What is happening to sm all busi ness today? It can’t compete. Big business is making big profits, pay ing big wages (regardless of whether the take-home pay of the workers is equal to cover high prices or not). Small business can’t afford to pay the big wages, and the small town m erchant is not mak ing sales and profits because the consumers in his company haven’t the money to spend. A recent issue of the Kiplinger magazine made a survey of condi tions in sm all towns as reported in a thousand letters from sm all busi nessmen, teachers, preachers, doc tors, lawyers, housewives, working men and working women in those towns. The net of the survey was that there was a definite letdown in business after January of this year, and that the people sur veyed believed that there is a further letdown in prospect. There is evidence of reduced con suming power which is the first sign of a depression. A sign that the wealth of the nation is getting out of the buyers’ hands. Now that’s a pretty gloomy pic ture and not wholly subscribed to by commerce departm ent people here. They will tell you that busi ness everywhere, large and small, showed a tendency to level off after January of this year, that there was a definite weakening in the first quarter of the year. But they be lieve that was a temporary trend, that it’s over now, that business will reverse itself, and that the general trend is now upward again. They make no differentiation be tween large and small businesses in their prognostications and studies, and they feel that the trend for all business now is up. But listen to what the people sur veyed by KipIinger say: A food wholesaler in Iowa: “Bread sales are extremely high, also flour sales are good and the sale of rolled oats is good, as people apparently are filling up on these nutritious foods in preference to more expensive item s.” A baker in Ohio: “We are selling fewer cakes and pies.” Women are doing more sewing at home, with clothing prices so high. An IUinois businessman said: “The local high school decided to have a night school on sewing. The first registration was 135 women.” Young woman in Wisconsin: “ I’m not the only working girl in this community who doesn’t have the new look.” Illinois farm woman: “We planned to buy some new furniture, but the price is too high. I am making slipcovers.” Even electrical items, dream ed of by housewives as an after-the-war necessity, are not selling weU. Said an Iowa dealer: “The edge is defi nitely off on hard goods, such as refrigerators, w ashers, radios, stoves, etc. Prices too high.” A traveUng salesm an covering the smaU towns finds the going tough: “I cover New York state and I am working twice as hard for half the business.” Many little signs of hard tim es were reported by Kiplinger’s sur vey. Examples: A Texas housewife: “I am feed ing tram ps for the first time since before the w ar.” A deacon: “ Collections are off at our church.” A loan company man: “More borrowing from small loan com panies.” A village cobbler: “My shoe repair business is good.” As the Kiplinger magazine puts it: “The folks in the small towns are harder up. Their incomes haven’t gone up as much as the prices they pay.” In other words, according to the survey, the wealth is getting out of the hands of the consumer. And whether this survey or the com m erce departm ent’s optimistic pre diction are more nearly correct, (congress abolished the smaU busi ness section), this much at least can be said: You can redistribute the wealth by the socialistic intervention of government. That kills capitalism. Or you can redistribute It by per m itting full and free competition— competition on the part of the pro ducers of raw materials, competi tion on the part of labor, (an ex pensive item ), competition on the part of processors. Industrial or labor monopoly, as I said before, will kill capitalism in the end as effectively as the Communist with his little red hatchet.* • * E v e n R u s s ia n s G et R e o r ie n te d This .item was passed along to m e by a friend. A high officer in one of the arm ies which fought against Russia was visiting this country, and told this story: Recently in Berlin, he was enter taining a high Russian officer sta tioned there. It was a farewell party as the Russian and his wife had been ordered to return to Mos cow. The host rem arked that it was nice that the Russian could take his wife back from the rigors of occupation life in Germany. The Russian had dined well, and perhaps was indiscreet. Anyway, he confessed that he was anything but pleased; that he was dreading the period he and his wife m ust pass in the “camp.” Then he explained that every Russian, before he was allowed to return to the Soviet Union, had to pass throngh a re-education center, and be indoctrinated with just what he should say to his friends and relatives.

U Old-Age Pensions A T A SECRET POWWOW with * * congressional Democratic lead ers President Trum an was told there was little chance of congress ap proving any of his proposals to in crease old-age pensions. However, the leaders advised that the peo ple were entitled to a frank report on how old-age insurance benefits— on which millions of Americans de pend for retirem ent security — have lagged behind higher wages and living costs. That was why Tru m an decided to send his message to congress anyway. Michigan’s aggressive represen tative, John Dingell, an original champion of the social security law, summed it up bluntly: “Unless pensions are increased in ratio to higher wages, higher taxes and higher living costs, counties that have sold their poorhouses for the aged will have to re-establish them.” Dingell said it would be “actu- arially sound” to increase pen sions because of increased reve nues from payroll taxes. He added: “Sixty million people are employed now, more than we ever dream ed of when we changed the law in 1939. We thought then that we wouldn’t have that many employed until 19S0.” “I want to cover as many people as practically possible,” comment ed the President. Biggest problem, observed Fed eral Security Administrator Oscar Ewing, is providing protection for casual workers, such as domestic servants and farmhands. "We might try the stam p system they use in England,” suggested Ewing. “I doubt that it would work here,” rem arked Mr. Truman. “It’s a nuisance to employers, difficult to administer and such casual em ployees frequently build up less credits for contributory pensions than they could get In an old-age assistance dole.” » * * White House Visitors THE PRESIDENT HAS RE SORTED to new strategy in han dling white House callers. For some time, Washington ob servers were amazed at the num ber of visitors President Trum an saw daily. But now the calling list has tapered off. The official list released every morning shows only a handful of visitors. What most people don’t know, however, Is that there are five separate entrances to the White House, and in recent weeks Mr. Truman has been fooling the press. While regular White House correspondents wait in the lobby of the executive offices watching for presidential visitors, various private callers slip in other doors. Sometimes as many as 25 will flow into M r. Truman’s office unnoticed. They come in through various side doors, some times even the distant east wing, and then are spirited around the back through the rose garden and in to the President. Some old senatorial friends also drop around to see Mr. Truman at breakfast. Others come In after breakfast, but before the press arrives. E d Flynn has been in twice lately, unnoticed. Form er Judge Sam Rosenman is again a White House regular using the east gate, as is George Allen, the old court jester. Another new favorite Truman rendezvous is the presidential yacht, the Williamsburg, where he holds stag poker parties with old buddies, sometimes sleeping on board and walking back to the White House early in the morning before most people go to work.• * * Western Water Shortage THE STORY OF A MODERN YUSH to California, more signifi cant than the ’49 gold rush, was laid before President Truman the other day with a warning that the state soon will not have enough water to go around. Calling at the White House, Congressmen Dick Welch, Re publican, and Frank Havenner, Democrat, both of San Francisco, described how the East was mi grating to the West at the rate of 1,000 newcomers a day. This tremendous influx has cost California millions of barrels of precious w ater from her danger ously dwindling reservoirs. Yet 73,770,000 acre-feet of fresh w ater from San Joaquin and Sac ram ento rivers empty into San Francisco bay each year. The con gressmen urged the President per sonally to look into this problem on his trip to California and recom mend what can be done to save the water. Mr. Trum an pulled out m aps of the bay region which he already had been studying, and assured the congressmen that he previously had intended to give the m atter his personal attention. “ There shouldn’t be a shortage of w ater in that area,” he agreed, “with w ater running wild into the bay.” Fly Immunity to DDT Is Debatable Question Some Insects Develop Strain of Resistance Do flies become immune or re sistant to DDT after it has been used for a few years? This question arises from the fact that a few fly-con- trol failu res on farm s where DDT was effective In other years have been hard to ac count for. The ex planation was' that the flies probably had become resist ant to the chemical. Uncle Sam’s entomologists admit that insects can develop resistance to the insecticides used against them, as in the case of the apple codling moth against which lead ar senate lost its effectiveness. More over, Uncle Sam’s bug men say they have,' in the laboratory, been able to develop a DDT-resistant strain of flies. It is not likely that a DDT- resistant strain would develop nat urally in the short time since DDT was first used. It is more reasonable to believe that the occasional failure oh farm s where DDT already has been used with good results is due to careless ness or inferior product. One thing in particular that should accompany the use of DDT is the destruction or removal of fly breed ing places, such as m anure piles, weed piles, old stack bottoms and wet spots in barnyards. One or more such spots m ay be able to turn out flies faster than DDT can kill-them, for DDT is not noted for fast action. A fly may survive for hours after alighting on a surface coated with DDT. Herds and Flocks New insecticide, pyrenone, has proved its effectiveness in control of flies, on livestock. Better than some of the old-time fly killing In secticides, the new m aterial is be ing used now in some livestock fly sprays. Use of protein supplements in rations for shotes always has been profitable. Some farm ers have fail ed to use these supplements, though, because of their cost. Now that grain is so high, the cost of protein supplements is relatively low. So1 if the use of supplements is more im portant one tim e than another, now is that time. It looks now like the farm er who has a flock of good pullets in the laying house next fall will get good prices for eggs. The better care you take of pullets now, the better they will be able to stand up under the strain of heavy laying next fall. Benzene hexachloride, recom mended by swine specialists at agri cultural colleges for control of hog lice and mange, now is being in corporated in hog oils that can be used in dipping vats, hog wallows, hog oilers or on rubbing posts. Reviving Grindstone This farm grindstone, although badly battered about its entire diam eter and worn quite flat in one place, was easily trued-up by dressing it with the sharp-pointed tool shown attached to the small board. The dark “ cutting tip” of the tool is made of carboloy cemented carbide, the hardest m etal made by man. Tests Show Tang Meal Poisonous to Chickens Tung m eal proved unsatisfactory as a source of protein in chick ra tions in tests conducted at the BTorida agricultural experiment sta tion. The tung m eal proved poison ous, whether raw, heated or heated and sifted. It caused heavy mor tality at IO and IS per cent levels. At 5 per cent and higher levels the tung m eal interfered with feed utilization and growth.

The anteater is a pet of farmers because it devours destructive white ants and does no harm. Both of these odd varieties of nat ural history are occurring in agricul tural areas of the United Provinces, according to newspaper reports from there. Wild elephants, the slaughter of which has been banned for several years, have multiplied greatly. They are doing so much damage ( to crops and fences and even attack-) ing villages that the United Frov-{ inces government has issued special! arms licenses for killing elephants and is planning to hire expert hunters.

Your Health De partment A great teacher of medicine once told his students; “More often than not, a doctor cannot cure a disease. But if he can teach a patient to get along with his disease, he’s done a lot for him.” To a sick patient, that is a hard truth to learn. It’s hard for any one to accept the bitter truth that his joints, heart, lungs, or brain are damaged and will not be whole again. Right offhand, I can’t think of a more bitter pill to take than knowledge. A blind person often seems to adapt to his loss better than a person with diabetes, high blood pressure, tuberculosis, rheu matism, or other chronic illness. I don’t know why this is. Maybe blindness is so obvious and, final that one is forced to accept it, and so plunges into the job of develop ing other talents and senses. But many people with other chronic illness refuse to abide by rules which would allow them to ive nearly normal lives. TTiey {refuse to take insulin or they re fuse to stick to a diet or they re fuse to stay for a year at a sana tarium. It almost seems they want to make doctors ashamed for not being able to give com- nlete cure. EUGENE E. TAYLOR, M. D. Health Officer. Lamon M. Eaton Funeral services for Lamon M. Eaton, 47, who died suddenly at h?s home in-CooIeemee, at 8 a. m., on Tune 13 th, were held at Chest nut Grove Methodist Church at 4 p. m., last Tuesday, with Revs. F- R. LoiIin and J. H. Groce officiat ing, and the body laid to rest the church cemetery. Mr. Eaton was a son of the late the Courthouse. Mrs. Mary Alice Moody former President of the local AuxiliaryPost and now State Auxiliary Secretary, residing in Greensboro was the guest speaketl Mrs. Moody spoke instead of Mrs. Alberta Vamer the State Presi dent who was unable to be present on account of illness. The meeting was presided over by Post Commander C. F. Meron- ev, Jr., who introduced the speak er. Mrs. Moody’s main topic was “Objectives of the Ladies Auxil iary, Veterans of Foreign Wars”. Some of the objectives for this year, Mrs. Moody stated are: As sist in rebuilding the Cancer re search Laboratory in Maine which was recently destroyed by fire; build a Miniature Golf Course at Swannanoa Veterans Hospital to be used by Veterans there who are disabled and unabe to take any exercise more strenuous than miniature golf. A few of the ob jects which are being carried on by the Ladies Auxiliaries are: General assistance in rehabilita tion work among disabled veter ans, mantaining an Orphans Home assisting disabled veterans in Hos pitals in all ways possible includ ing Buddy Poppy sale to provide the disabled veterans with useful employment and funds for inci dentals and comforts not provid ed by the Veterans Administra tion. In general the Ladies Aux iliary supports and supplements the work of the Veterans of For eign Wars, and the Veterans Ad ministration in the care of Dis-! Work is progressing rapidly on abled Veterans and of the widows t^ie new 7-room house of Mr. and and children of men who have Mrs. L. M.

Matthews, Secretary-Treasur- er and Mrs. Germaine Wellman. Past President of the local auxil iary spoke briefly and gave report of the State encampment held last Wwek in Winston-Salem. The speakers urged members of the Veterans of Foreign Wars to assist and encourage their wives,' mothers and daughters to join and j support the Ladies Auxiliary? which is doing a wonderful job in rendering aid and comfort to our war disabled throughout the land. I The outstanding feature of the j Veterans meeting was presentation ‘ of a set of Colors to the' Post by ‘Davie County Field Day,” on Saturday, Sept. 4, 1948, in Mocks- vllfe. This Field Day might be called a one-day fair. It will be a non-profit affair, no gate receipts or other charges. There will be no carnival. The main purpose of this Field Day is to show the public some of the progress being made in the county. W e plan to use the Mocksville High School gymnasium and near by grounds. The interested public workers and Grange members hope to have the following exhibits at the Field Day: 1. Merchants’ exhibits. 2. Live at Home booths, by Home Demonstration Clubs and Granges. 3.

X ite r F IC T IO N C o t n e v TH E B IG C H A N C E B r FREDERICK LAING HE WASN’T the kind to pick secretary by the color of her hair. Not Bill Hargrave. Both Paula and Nancy had been sm art enough to know that. And for some tim e every one in the office had known that one of them , Paula or Nancy, was going to get the job. In fact, the decision probably would come through this afternoon. Har grave was leaving town and wanted to get it settled. The two girls could see him from their desks outside his office. May be it was only a set of proofs for the Zippo campaign that he was looking at with cool, keen eyes. But for a moment his finger seemed to pause above those two efficient lit tle push-buttons. If he pressed the left one, it would be Paula’s pulse that would go into high speed. Paula couldn’t keep her eyes off that light on her desk. She kept making mistakes in her typing and nervously ripping the sheets out to start fresh again. She leaned across her typewriter and said to Nancy: “The boss is all dolled up today. Must be going on a special trip with the new presi dent of Zippo.” She was just talking to relieve her nervousness. Nancy took her time about answering. She wasn’t used to having Paula talk to her in such an intimate tone. Not since they’d learned a month ago that they were both in line for a pro motion, for the important job as Bill Hargrave's secretary. “He does look nice,” she said, finally. Hargrave was young and out side of office hours he was said to be human. But that wasn’t why he’d gotten to be one of the key men at Advertising, Inc. He was quiet, and some of the boys in the office hadn’t realized how fast he was traveling until they somehow happened to get in his way. The two girls saw him get up from his desk and walk to the doorway of his office. He stood there with one hand in a pocket of his double-breasted blue flannel suit. There was a small white flower in his buttonhole and the usual keen, unrevealing smile on his face. “Did you send for the tickets?” he asked Nancy. “I got the tickets all right,” she answered, “ but . . .” and she tried to smile in the same hard way the boss did. She looked as hardboiled as a white kitten. “But there just aren’t any staterooms to be had,” she told him. “Not for love or money.” The boss was certainly disap pointed. Anybody could see that. “Suppose I try it?” Paula sug gested quickly. And for the next 10 minutes, half the office force could hear Paula telling the ticket agent where to get off. “Listen,” she said, "I don’t care whose reservations you have to cancel ...” Well, the job was worth going after. There was the salary, for one thing. And there was the pres tige. The boss’ secretary knew a lot of answers. And there were the interesting people she got to talk to. The big shots. And the boxes of perfume, flowers and candy they often left on her desk. And there was Bill Hargrave for a boss. Young and clever and at tractive. That was a factor, too. iecause in the advertising business you called the boss “Bill,” and he called his secretary “Nancy” or “Paula,” and took her to dinner on the expense account, on nights when the work w as late. It was all strictly business, but it seemed intimate and informal. Both Paula and Nancy knew about these dinners. Bill had tried to be fair. He would ask Paula to stay one night, and then it would be Nancy’s turn the next. But Paula had been sm art. She’d soon learned how impersonal Bill Hargrave could be, even at those intim ate dinners. About as personal She handed him the envelope. It contained the two sets of tickets. “That’s your stateroom number on the outside,” she said crisply. She had on a double-breasted blue flannel suit something like Bill's, and it was clear he thought she looked pretty sm art in it. "Don’t forget the time,” she add ed, "eight fifteen.” Hargrave grinned. “So there were no stateroom s for love or money, eh?” He looked again a t the number of his stateroom and he put the And for the next 10 minutes, half the office force could hear Paula snappily telling the ticket agent where to get off. as an ad that says: “This m eans you.” And she saw how much harder to please he was during the overtime hours — more irritable, more apt to get that edge of com plaint in his voice. So when Nancy had said, “I don’t mind staying nights, really. I know Paula usually has a date. She’s popular with the m en . . .” well, Paula had been glad to let it go at that. She’d been quick to see that neither of them was going to get the job mainly on sex appeal, and she was right. Paula didn’t need any lessons when it came to office politics. She was the one who was always busy when some copy cub wanted his stuff typed. “Sorry, but it’s impos sible. Mac. Why not ask Nancy?” And they did. It left Patda free to do Bill Hargrave’s work in a hurry. Never too busy for Mr. envelope carefully in his inside pocket. Then he told her. She had a new job. He mentioned the salary, too. He didn’t neglect to mention the salary. She took it just right. Just enough of gratitude. And then, the old sportsmanship. How sorry she felt about Nancy. She didn’t look sorry. And neither did Bill. He told her it was okay, that Nancy wasn’t m ade for the job anyway, and that they were leaving on their honey moon tonight. Tonight, at eight fifteen. Bill. When one of Hargrave finally pressed those buttons it was at Paula’s desk that the Eght flick ered. She started to make a grab for her note book, but she whipped out her m irror first. Then she grabbed up her note book and an envelope that was on the desk. As for Nancy, what else could she do but sit there with her pretty blonde head bent over her type writer? Nancy was a natural blonde, and that seemed the best way to describe her. She just didn’t seem to know any tricks. The moment Paula got inside Har grave’s office, he asked about that stateroom. “Any luck, Paula?” No, Paula hadn’t been dumb. It was the little things that would add with Mr. Bill. Orchestra seats when the client was in town and the show was sold out. Or a state room when there were "no state rooms to be had for love or money.” i i i i i l g*iO long I have been goided by Uqr power % tU p maoy atingW pwh.tnd Stoay hiU, Dew, dor I M through this Stnagt darkened boot BevidiiBUSilL Be with oieibt the way is Ioog end lossiy, I ua bewildered, end I cannot see.

According to a re cent soda fountain survey, here are the epics you’d like to eat popcorn through again. “STATE PAIR” — Jeanne was so lovely—and there m ust be a word for Dana, but we can’t think of it.

From Malachi To Christ Lesson for June 27, 1918 D r. NeiTtou THE interbiblical period, covering approximately four centuries, is one of the great silences of history, save as the prophecies of God offer flickering light up on the winding paths in western Asia, northern Af rica and southern Europe. A rem nant of Jews re sided in Jerusa lem, whilst many others were dis persed about the face of the earth. The Old Testam ent was translated into Greek—the version used in the tim e of Christ. The Talmud and the 14 books of the Apocrypha were written. The syna gogue arose. The schools of Hillel and Shamm ai were founded and flourished. The sects of the Phari sees and Sadducees originated. Bud dha, Confucius and Zoroaster were beginning to influence life in the Par E ast, while in the N ear E ast Zeno and Epicurus dominated philo sophical thought. The Caesars ruled the M editerranean world. To understand something of this period from M alachi to Christ, we are asked to read the Scripture pas sages listed above.. . . BEFORE JESUS CAME 44TJ EHOLD, I will send m y mes- -D senger, and he shall prepare the way for m e; and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come in his temple, even the m essenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in; be hold he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.” Did they fully ’understand the significance of these great words of Malachi? Hardly m ay we expect that they did, but they got their basis of hope, about which we studied last Sunday. Im agine the faces of the little children in the long ago as they heard of the com ing Messenger! . . . THE COMING CHRIST LOOK carefully at the above Scrip tures and see how both the Old and New Testam ents center upon Christ. These great phrases are suggested: The promised Christ, the expected Christ, the heralding Christ, the presented Christ, the enlightening Christ, the judging Christ, the merci ful Christ, the redeeming Christ, the restoring Christ, the guiding Christ. Space does not perm it the cita tions, but a study of the passages will reveal each of these gifts and blessings in the coming Christ. * * * BETWEEN THE TESTAMENTS DIMLY only' do we envision that period of four centuries, but we have sufficient light to trace the steps by which the faithful amongst the Jew s were cleansing themselves of idolatry as the fires of God purged away the dross of paganism and secularism. One will find rich reward in the reading of the Apocry pha and Josephus. Also, one will find in the opening chapters of the New Testam ent light which falls back upon those dark ages. There were synagogue schools, taught, in many instances by very able men, such as Hillel. There was a groping toward the light. Men were hungry for the fulfilment of prophecy. It was the darkness just before the dawn.* • * THE LIGHT BREAKS 4 4 T J LESSED be the Lord God of D Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,” Luke 1:68. Thus does the golden text for Sun day’s lesson flash upon the waiting heart of expectant hum anity the Good News. The fulness of God’s tim e had come. Jesus was bom . Peace had come to men of good will. Jam es Montgomery puts the Good News in these lovely lines: Angels, from the realms of glory, Wing your flight o'er all the earth, Ye, who sang creation’s story, Now proclaim Messiah’s birth-.

JitkttaM W a y to S o c ia lis m When President Charles Seymour of Tale University declared recently that his university wants no part of federal grants for educational purposes, it seemed to me high time that educators in general should wake up to the dan gers inherent in federal aid to educa tion. The public, too, seems entirely too complacent regarding this “let-Wash- ington-do-it” attitude, an attitude far too many educators have been fooled into accepting. It was President Seymour’s idea that direct federal grants to his institution would “imperil the independence of the university." Indeed, sooner or later they would. Public school educators could tear a leaf out of President Seymour's notebook. If federal aid would bring . interference and control at Yale, so also would federal grants to public education bring control by Washington over local educational functions. Pocketbook Power As far as I know, nobody has ever argued that control over the finances of an undertaking fails to bring with it full control of that project. Surely where the pocketbook it, there goes the authority. None of those arguing for federal aid will admit they would wel come federal control of education. Ev erybody wants to avoid federal control (except the Communists). Yet, it amazes me that folks would accept measures that lead to control, as surely as dawn precedes day. We work hard and spend tax money, to promote decentralization, local responsibility, and local self-government in Germany. We still believe that Hitler and his Nazis built a dictatorship by concen trating power into hands that no one dared oppose. Local Rights Why then, should America ever take a step in the same direction? Federal aid to public education is socialized edu cation. AU the dangers attendant to the centralized government would be mag nified under any plan that would permit federal control of the education of chil dren. Must America go in the same di rection that Czechoslovakia has gone ? Freedom of the local community in edu cational affairs must be maintained. No sane educator or good citizen would argue against more and better education. Everybody agrees on the ne cessity for improving our schools con stantly. Not only the children, but the nation as a whole suffers when we neg lect to provide funds for school build ings and equipment. Our public school teachers need better pay and better training. Although we have already made the best record of any nation, in the realm of education, we can do still better. On The Alert The answer to this problem is: edu cate the adults. Educate the grown folks to have the same appreciation for good education that they have for good highways, and you will find splendid schools in every place. State finances are greatly improved. Our states can, and will, spend more and more for edu cation. Why run to a federal govern ment already in debt hundreds of bil lions of dollars ? Federal aid to schools in this nation is neither necessary nor desirable. Yet, federal aid, which is a strong step toward socialization,' has received strong support in educational circles. I feel grateful that Congress, so far, has passed none of the several bills that have been submitted. Every informed citizen should keep alert to the danger of federal aid to education.

Who doesn’t relish a meal centered about barbecued chicken, chicken a la king, chicken pot pie, chicken gumbo and rice and dozens of other “company” dishes made from chicken? With your own canned chicken you are ready to make them! One or two-year-old chickens are better than younger ones for can ning. Confine 12 to 24 hours before killing, giving water but no feed. Kill six to 12 hours before canning. Avoid bruising. Bleed thoroughly. Pluck, singe, and wash with mild soap. Rinse well. Cut skin between legs and body; then bend logs until hip joints snap. Slip knife under ends of shoulder blades and cut up to wings. Pull back and breast apart. Remove en trails. Rinse, dry, and chill the fowl. Do not salt. Feet may be used in making broth. Do not can liver and gizzard with other parts of fowl. To cold pack chicken, separate raw fowl at joints and pack into hot Ball Jars. Add one teaspoon FaIt to each- quart. Add no liquid. Process 100 minutes at 10 pounds pressure. The hot pack method requires that the fowl be boiled, steamed or baked until from one-third to one-half done. Separate at joints and pack hot into hot Ball Jars. Cover with boiling broth. Salt to taste and process 90 minutes at 10 pounds pressure.

In all humility, I pray God that I may deserve this opportunity to serve our country. “I come to you unfettered by a single obligation or promise to any living person, free to join with you in selecting to serve our nation the finest men and women in the nation, free to unite our party and our country in meeting the grave challenge of our time.” WARREN FOR VICE-PRESIDENT « GOVERNOR EARL WARREN Governor Earl Warren, 57, of California, was nominated for Vice- President on the Republican ticket shortly before noon Friday.

This interest is a wholesome attitnde—but one I don't want limited to your editor. AU of you should be asking quest ions about the program—how it ap plies to you and your family. It is impossible for me to talk :o each of you when visiting your County but you can let me know what’s on your mind by wHting to the Social Security Administration, 437 Nis- sen Building, Winston Salem, N.

And tell your wife and the rest of your fam ily to see me if anything should happen to you. I am in Mocks ville the fourth Wednesday of each month at 12:30 o’clock on the 2nd floor of the Courthouse.

TH E N EW LO O K Bv WILLIAM CLJTHBERT CotTHev JOE KAUFMAN stood in front of the m irror. Two years In the penitentiary hadn’t taken the plump ness from his body nor the color from his cheeks. The tint of silver about his temples was becoming, and the change from drab, loose fit ting prison gray to tailor-made banker’s gray gave him confidence. “I’ve got that new look, Pinky,’’ he said to the m an who had been his cellm ate during his first year of confinement. “Don’t get any new ideas, Joe,” Pinky said as he sat on the edge of the bed, “you better do like I’m doin’; go straight!” “Hogwash,” Joe laughed. “The cops have m e figured as a counter feiter, but I’m giving up that angle. They’ll never suspect me of being a sticlcup m an.” Pinky stood up. He was tall like Joe, but thin. “If you won’t take the job I’ve got for you, Joe, then this is good-by.” Joe was thoughtful for a minute, then he said, “So you don’t know who is putting out that new batch of counterfeits, heh?” "I thought you said you were givin’ up counterfeiting,” Pinky snapped. “I am,” Joe assured him. “ I guess it’s just professional jeal ously to hear that someone else is putting out stuff that is almost per fect.” “All I know is that you’ve got to use a magnifying glass to find the flaws,” Pinky told him. “Let’s see,” Joe mused, “Batson is still up the river, Jaeger and Sims are in South America, Pete and Wil son have dropped out of sight and nobody knows where they’ve van ished to, and Barody stopped a bullet when the cops raided his plant. It just can’t be any of the old gang. Somebody new m ust have moved in.” Pinky shook his head and said, “You’ll learn that you can’t win on the wrong side of the fence, hut I’m afraid it will be too late. Good-by, Joe.” Joe dismissed his form er cellmate With a wave of his hand. Plans already were forming in his mind for the first holdup. News had drifted into the prison that Lee Stanley was going places, and fast. Lee had been only a petty racketeer a few years back, and Joe never had., liked him, but apparently Lee had found a way to become big-time. He was the new owner of the Roxy night club, and Joe knew it for a swanky place. Joe snapped his fingers. He knew the layout of the Roxy. It would be easy to. get to Lee’s office, and it would give him satisfaction to get hold of some of Lee’s profits. He went to the closet and found the hidden wall hole he had made before his arrest. The revolver and a box of cartridges were still there. They were about the only things the police hadn’t found. With a handkerchief and a piece of wire, Joe cleaned the barrel, then loaded the cham ber in case he should have to use it. Then he turned to the window and looked outside. Sergeant Cain was on the com er leaning against a telegraph pole. Joe was annoyed, but not disheartened. The cops al ways put a m an on you after you did a stretch up the river. And this was the same copper who had caught him with a pocketful of counterfeit bills two years before. It would be several hours before he would be able to go to the Roxy, so Joe decided to play with the detective before losing him. When Joe stepped out onto the pavement, he saw Sergeant Cain straighten up. He walked to a restaurant, and took his tim e order ing and eating, noticing that the sergeant was keeping a hungry eye on him outside the window. Joe then spent a couple of hours in a cheap movie, and was aware that Sergeant Cain was sitting only a few rows behind him. Then he decided it was tim e to give the detective the slip. He was followed from the theater, but kept his eyes open as he walked along the street. Suddenly he saw was a stack of crisp, new twenty dollar bills on top of the desk. Disguising his voice, Joe said, “Be a good guy and don’t act up, or you’ll get hurt,” as he moved cat-like toward the desk. But he knew Lee was going to get hurt. Working with precision, Joe’s left hand scooped up the money, and his right hand brought the gun barrel down across Lee Stanley’s head. He jam m ed the twenties into his pockets and tiptoed to the door. With a quick glance he saw that no With a quick movement he was inside the cab and snapping orders to the driver. what he was waiting for, a cruising taxicab. With a quick movement he was inside the cab and snapping orders to the driver. The taxi leaped forward, and Joe looked out of the rear window in time to see Sergeant Cain waving to a taxicab that was traveling in the opposite direction. Joe’s taxi turned half a dozen corners before he was definitely satisfied that he had lost Sergeant Cain. Then he had the driver take him to within a half block of the Roxy. Joe worked his way cautiously to the back of the night club. He smiled when he saw the fire escape. It was the kind that needed weight to carry the bottom section down to the ground. Joe climbed a rainspout and reached out and grabbed the side rail. As he rode the section to the ground, the rusty iron’s screech filled the night, and Joe stood still lor a lull minute, wait ing to learn if anyone inside had heard the sound. He decided finally that the other noises out in the street had drowned out the sound. He went up the steps until he reached a window which opened into a corridor. He forced the window without too much trou ble and climbed inside. Music was playing out on the dance, floor and the sound of laugh ing voices penetrated the walls, but nothing stirred in the corridor. Joe tied a handkerchief over his mouth and nose, and pulled his hat down over his eyes. He glanced around to refresh his memory, and smiled. Apparently this was to be one of his lucky nights. He saw the light through the glass in the door of the room he sought, and shoved the door open. Startled, Lee Stanley looked up from behind a desk at the gun which Joe held in a steady hand.

There was no way of knowing how much money he had in his pockets, but he felt sure that it was enough for him to leave the city and have a free and easy life for a few months. A half hour later, as Joe stepped into his room, he was chuckling to himself. He visioned Sergeant Cain hurrying about the city trying to pick up his trail. He switched on the lights, then froze. Sergeant Cain was leaning against the wall, toying with his Colt police positive. “What—what do you want?” Joe stamm ered. “The way you gave m e the slip,” Sergeant Cain said, “I figured you were anxious to contact that new counterfeiting gang. Also figured the best place to pick you up was right here.” Joe relaxed and sat on the bed. He said, “I’m through with counter feiting.” At the sam e tim e he eased the gun from his hip pocket and deftly pushed it under the pillow. “How about if I see what you have in your pockets?” Sergeant Cain asked. Joe stood up and smiled. He had nothing to fear. The detective had no way of knowing where the money cam e from, and he felt sure that Lee Stanley wouldn’t report the holdup to the police. He didn’t know how Lee had become big-time, but he was sure his method wasn’t honest, and he wouldn’t want the law poking into his business. Sergeant Cain found the twenty dollar bills and stepped -back a safe distance from Joe. He took a small magnifying glass from his pocket and examined a twenty. Instead of giving the bills back to Joe, he stuffed them into his own pockets and said," “You sure work fast, Joe. Loaded with counterfeit money already. Come on, you’re going to headquarters.” “ Counterfeits!” Joe gasped. Thoughts began to race through his mind. So that was how Lee Stanley had become big-time! He was using a printing press—and if Joe told the police where he got the money, his life wouldn’t be worth a dime. Sergeant Cain snapped a pair of handcuffs on his wrists. Joe looked at his tailored clothes and realized he was about to lose that new look. As he started to walk toward the door, he wondered if Pinky would keep that job open for him, for a couple of years?

Being IN the smooth crowd and the big doings can make your four years of high school the “ Best Years of Your Life.” Being OUT of them can make them seem like 40 years of solitary confinement.

ANSWER: First rub down the wood with fine sandpaper and steel wool until the surfaces are smooth and “satin*-like; then wipe off the dust with turpentine. If you wish to have an orange maple color, you can get this effect by the applica tion of two coats of pure orange shellac. The first coat should be thinned half-and-half with denatur ed alcohol. For other shades, apply an oil stain, selecting the color that you prefer from a color-card at your local paint store. Apply the stain as directed on the lohrl and finish with two coats of quick-dry ing varnish. QUESTION: The mortar is powdering between the bricks of our chimney. How can I repair it? ANSWER: Cisan out the old mortar to a depth of half an inch or so, wet the grooves with water, then pack with a mixture of I part Portland cement, I part hydrated lime and 5 parts of clean, coarse sand with just enough water to make a workable mixture.

A fellow who will tell a lie for 50 cents is a sorry sort of a being, not hardly fit for the devil or' anything else But there be some who would stoop low enough to lie for less than a “jitney.” A man in Iowa was soundly thrashed by his wife for not pay ing his newspaper subscription af ter she had given him the cash with which to do it. May her crown be trimmed to order, and her harp have an extra string. Nay, Pauline, the two Davie County Democratic newspapers are not going to help elect Hon. B. C. Brock to the State Senate, Mack Kimbrough to the House, Charlie Vogler Register of Deeds, R. P. Martin, John M. Groce and Clarence Carter county commis sioners. Neither will The Davie Record help to elect the men who are running for office on the De mocratic ticket. Such things just aren’t done these days. The own er of The Record is a Republican, while the owners of the Demo cratic papers are Democrats. The Republican National Con vention did itself proud last week at Philadelphia by nominating an extra strong ticket with Governor Thomas E. Dewey for President* and Governor Earl Warren, of California, as Vice-President. If the Democrats nominate Harry S, Truman, they are defeated before they even lstart. The Record is glad that Governor Dewey was nominated. If we figure right, he will be the next President. Four years ago no Republican could have been elected. Folks won’t shoot Santa Claus. Foi thepast eight years we have been behind Tom Dewey. He will make a fine Chief Executive. There is no question but what the Mocksville, Farmington, Ad vance and Cooleemee schools are badly in need of enlarging their present buildings to take care of the ever increasing number of pu pils. Mocksville has three school buildings—two for white and one for Negro children. AU of these school buildings are located in North Mocksville. Instead of en larging the present buildings, why not erect a new building in West, East or South Mocksville. Most towns the size of Mocksville, have schools located in different parts of the town, which is more con venient for both parents and pu pils. Members of our board of education are urged to give this question due consideration. The Record was in the thick of the fight nearly 40 years ago to get our first graded school. It took- work to put a bond issue over in the good old days. Mrs. U. H. Myers Mrs. U. H. Myers, 79, died at her home near Advance Thurs day night.

Inaw edding of beautiful sim plicity, Miss Rebecca' Winchester Brown, of Statesville, became the bride of Junius Atwood Craven, of Mocksville, at 10:30 Saturday morning, June 19th, at the home of the bride’s parents in Statesville. Miss Margaret Carson, pianist, and Miss Joyce Saunders, soloist, rendered a program of wedding music. Rev. James S. Potter, pas tor of the First Baptist Church, officiated, using the double ring ceremony. The bride and groom entered unattended and the vows were spoken before an improvised altar of greenery, with tiered candelabra and ligbted candles. The bride’s corsage was of white orchids. Immediately following the cere mony the bride’s parents enter tained the wedding party at a wedding breakfast in the private diningroom of the Vance Hotel, after which the bride and groom left for a wedding trip to New York City. After July 1st, they will be at home at 413 Wilkesboro St., Mocksville. Mrs. Craven is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Numa Estes Brown, and is a graduate of Statesville high school, Mitchell College and Wake Forest College.

Your Health De partment “We all hope taxes can be re duced,” John Jones was saying philosophically the other day.“ Of course, one way we could save on taxes would be to find what the tax dollar goes for. Then we could put that tax dollar to work by using the services it pays for.” "Say that once again,” we said, “We don’t follow you.” “Let me give you an example,” he said. “It’s right down your al ley, because it concerns the health department. Ten years ago my fiiend Henry Robinson decided to put in a septic tank at his house. I suggested he come to the Health Department and get some infor mation about proper construc tion!” “ ‘Aw, there’s nothing to it,’ Henry said. ‘I’ll just tell the plum ber to build me a septic tank. As long as you got a septic tank you are a modem, up to-date, 2oth cen tury sort of fellow. AU the Health Department cares about is that you get rid of the privy. Any sort of septic tank’s okay’ ”. “So Henry had a septic tank built. Now it happens his lot slopes away sharply in back. So after the plumber built the tank he laid a drain line straight down -he hill about one foot under ground. Drainage water from the tank ran down the line so fast the ground didn’t have time to soak it up. Drainage water began com ing to the surface at the end of the line. Naturally this created quite an odor. Flies began breed ing there and endangered the en tire community with the germs. Neighbors b e g a n complaining. You won’t remember about it, but the Health Department had to make him put in a new drain line. He got his plumber to bear half the expense as he had put the line in wrong in the first place. So it cost each of them $25. Now how much does a citi zen pay for Health Department services’ “Oh, roughly $2.25 per year for the head of a family of five. That’s counting money going into local, state, and federal taxes,” we an swered. ■ “Well, there you are,” John said, “If Henry and the plumber had just learned what they were buying with that $2.25, they each could have ;saved $25.00. How much should a drain line slope so the ground'will be able to soak up the water?” “One-fourth inch^in 10 feet of line,’’ we said. EUGENE E. TAYLOR, M. D. Health Officer.

WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS Truman’s ‘Non-Political’ Tour in West Breaks Precedents, Also Hits Snags; Senate Fights to Recover Aid Slash By Bill Schoentgen, WNU Staff W riter. (EDITOR'S NOTE: Wlieii opinions arc expressed In these eoltimiis, they are these of Western' Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not necessarily of this newspaper.! ODDS ON SECURITY . . . Seeking to end what he termed a “des perate gamble” with the nation’s security, Sen. Chan Gnrney (Rep., S. D.) (left) opened senate debate on the measure to draft youths aged 19 through 25. Chairman of the senate armed services committee, Gurney here is discussing the draft bill with Senators Leverett Sal- tonstall (Rep., Mass.) and Richard B. Russell (Dem., Ga.). NON-POLITICAL: Truman’s Tour President Truman's “non-politi cal swing through the West could be described as non-political only in the sense that Mr. Truman, as a candidate for Democratic re- nomination, had jettisoned many of the rules of standard party poli tics. It was a lone wolf fight he was waging—going over the heads of party leaders to talk directly to the people. And most of what he had to say to the people concerned the Republican congress and what he termed its inaction. In Chicago, speaking before the Swedish Pioneer Centennial asso ciation, he hammered out a plat form upon which he can be expect ed to base his chances for re nomination. Specifically, he lashed out at the idea that communism can be legis lated out of existence. From Chicago the President, with his entourage, headed for the heart of the farm belt, Omaha, Neb., and it was there that he was set sharp ly back on his heels. He continued his lambasting of the Republican congress—this time concentrating on GOP farm policies —in a speech at the Ak-Sar-Ben coliseum in Omaha. Fantastically, in the coliseum which has a ca pacity of 10,000, fewer than 2,000 persons were present to hear Mr. Truman talk. This phenomenon was variously interpreted. Some said the Presi dent’s box office appeal had wilted. Others claimed the Nebraska Demo cratic machine had done a miser ably inadequate job in promoting his appearance. Probably closer to the truth was the plain fact that the “non-po litical” label of the presidential trip had backfired seriously. He made a 'political speech and had expected to get a crowd of friendly Demo crats to fill the hall for the occa sion. But the White House previously had told the Democratic organiza tion in Omaha to lay off the po litical hoop-la, and the organization acted in compliance with those in structions. Payoff came when no body else showed up to fill the ach ing void which the Democrats cre ated by staying away. It was an unpleasant blow for the campaigning Mr. Truman and one that might produce grave po litical repercussions. But the President was resilient And in a more or less happy frame of mind he left Omaha on his train and rode away into the setting sun in search of happier hunting grounds. AID SLASH: iLess Recovery’? Sen. Arthur Vandenberg was fighting mad at what the house of representatives had done to his po litical baby, the world recovery pro gram, by slashing nearly a million dollars from the appropriations for the Europe-Asia aid bill. On the Republican foreign policy leader from Michigan rested the ad ministration’s hope of reclaiming the appropriations cut in senate ac tion on the measure. Certainly, Vandenberg has a more than usual affinity for global aid program since it was he who labored to steer the Marshall plan to congressional approval last April. What the house had done was to approve a total foreign aid expen- Biggesf Eye Scientists and astronomers are tugging at the leash in anticipation of the secrets of the universe which the newly dedicated 200-inch tele scope atop Mount Palomar, Calif., will reveal to them.

The administration had asked $6,- 533,710,228 as the minimum fund needed for a 12-month period. Secretary of State George Mar shall, fighting hard against the cut, had asserted that the smaller ap propriation would mean putting Eu rope on a relief dole, rather than helping it to its feet. But Rep. John Taber (Rep., N. Y.), chairman of the house appropria tions committee, went right ahead and swung the ax. He said the funds his committee proposed were all that could be spent with any degree of prudence. Paul G. Hoffman, head of the Eu ropean recovery program, said he “certainly hoped” congress would restore the cuts. ERP was hardest hit in the fund cut. Wliereas congress previously had authorized up to 4.245 billion dollars in 12 months for that 16- nation recovery project, the appro priations bill as passed by the house knocked that figure down to 4 bil lion dollars for 15 months. Other reductions: Assistance to Greece and Turkey was cut from 275 million to 200 million dollars and aid to China cut from 463 million to 400 million. DHAFT: Debatable In the waning days before ad journment of congress the senate had buckled down to the task of producing action on a limited re vival of the military draft The house was waiting only for the senate to dispose of the ques tion before its members waded into the tricky currents of a similar measure. Legislators in both houses were treading gingerly about on the issue, • throbbing with the knowledge that this is an election year and further more there are any number of American parents ready to offer material objections at the ballot box if their boys are called up for mili tary service. In the face of- all this the senate, nevertheless, was trying to do some kind of a job. Its measure pro vided for the drafting of men 19 through 25 in sufficient numbers to bring the armed services up to their authorized strength. The bill would permit 18-year-olds to volunteer for a year’s training, thus disposing of a universal military training act for the present. Among the side issues that atose during the senate debate was the old bugaboo of civil rights. After an abortive two-hour filibuster by southern Democrats, the senate voted 37 to 35 to outlaw the poll tax as a requirement for voting in federal elections so far as members of the armed forces are concerned. Actually, it was a minor issue, in asmuch as most of the seven southern poll tax states still have in effect wartime suspensions of the tax for members of the armed services. Under the senate measure the draft would be authorized for five years, but the program is left flexi ble enough so congress each year could raise or lower both the regu lar and reserve forces to meet shifting world conditions. Drafted men, after completing two years of service, would have to serve in the reserve for five years or, as a m atter of choice, volunteer for an additional year in the regular services or two years in the national guard.

The plan is to offer the G. O. P. vice - presidential nomination to a southerner, possibly Virginia’s Sen. Harry Byrd. The idea already has picked up some support among southern Dem ocrats and has been given a strong push by western Republicans. The Republicans are eager to carve up the “Solid South" while the time is ripe. One westerner, who has been spurring the idea in the cloakrooms, is Utah’s Congressman William Dawson. He proposes a Vanden- berg - Byrd ticket, pointing out that the big Michigan Republican al ready has a reputation for biparti san cooperation while the conserva tive Byrd usually votes Republican anyhow. This ticket has the private en dorsement of an overwhelming number of southern Democrats who have asked that their names be kept secret until the merger plan gets off thin ice. Congressmen from Florida and North Carolina predict that Vandenberg and Byrd together could sweep their states three - to - one. Biggest southern fear is that the Republicans would shunt them aside after elections, just as hap pened after they helped elect Her bert Hoover in the row over Al Smith. The mechanics of shifting from the Democratic to the Re publican party also is an obstacle in the way of southern congress men. Dawson has suggested that the Republican party could en dorse certain Democratic candi dates in the South this year; and that a system of cross-filing, as ' used in California, might be worked cut in the future. Florida’s Congressman Dwight Rogers, one of the most active southerners behind the plan, ack nowledged the difficulties, but warned: “If we don’t get together on our own initiative, we are going to be pushed into it.” Dawson also is harping on the theme of a southern-western alli ance. “The South and the West think alike on most issues," he told a group of southerners. “There is no reason why we should be divided up the way we are.”• • * Lobbyists Knife Veterans THE POWERFUL REAL- ESTATE LOBBY has missed no bets in its campaign to block low- cost, public housing for war vets and others. However, the lobby’s latest move, engineered by senate allies, is the shabbiest to date — an effort to trade off senate approval of a bill to aid 2,200 paralyzed vet erans for another bill, supported by the lobby. The latter bill would provide lush government loan in surance for private home builders. The real-estate senators are not anxious to have their operations known, but here are the facts: At a recent closed-door meeting of the senate banking and currency committee, Sen. Charles Tobey of New Hampshire sought approval of a section of the Taft-Ellender-Wag- ner bill providing housing aid foi® paraplegic veterans. These are the tragic cases of veterans wholly par alyzed below the waist. However, no sooner had the committee voted approval than the real - estate - lobby senators went into action. G. O. P. Sen. Harry Cain of Washington pro posed that “a lot of construction people” needed help. He also wanted to know if the housing bill was to be dismembered and passed in separate sections. Dem ocratic Sen. Willis Robertson of Virginia kept the ball rolling. “Now that we have agreed to the adoption of this section for vet erans’ aid, we ought to do the same with Title I of the bill,” observed Robertson. Title I is a sop to pri vate builders to offset low-cost pub lic housing provisions of the hous ing bill. It authorizes government guarantees up to 90 per cent on bank loans to private home build ers. “The section we just approved and the section you gentlemen would like to have approved are not on a par,” objected Tobey. However, Robertson continued to press for a vote, at which point able young Sen. Jolm Sparkman of Alabama stepped into tbe fray. “I introduced a bill for the par aplegic vets last year and have tried to help them in every way possible,” declared Sparkman. “However, I have told my veteran constituents that I would not sup port action on independent sections of the T-E-W bill if it jeopardized approval of the entire bill, includ ing the public housing and, slum- clearance features. Therefore he moved that the en tire housing bill be left intact. The Sparkman motion carried by one vote, thus upsetting the plan to use aid to crippled vets as a bargaining point to win con cessions for private building in terests. Washington D igest, Reciprocal Trade Is Vital To Well-Being of the World ByBAUKHAGE News Analyst and Commentator WASHINGTON.—Despite the spirited battle over extension of the reciprocal trade agreement authority, nothing which even its best friends could hope to do about it would be definitive, for every one knew from the start that final action must be postponed until next year. Reciprocal trade agreements have been a definite part of our foreign trade policy for 14 years. If they were of any value in the past, they are of even more value now. But with an election a little more than four months off and congress trying to break a log jam of legislation, lengthy debate on the subject was impossible. Putting it backwards, the recip rocal trade agreement policy is this: If a country is prevented by a liigh tariff wall from selling to us, it can’t get the dollars to b u y I I" I from us. Or, if the country has - -Afat borrowed money -M M HS from USi it can’t get the dollars to pay us back. That’s what hap- pened after World W a r I, atad t h e break down in foreign trade was one of the great factors in bringing on depression. But that isn’t the only thing that tariff walls do. They tend to force isolationism, extreme nationalism oh a country and behind the tariff walls, as ex-Secretary of State Cor dell Hull used to say so often, grow the roots of war. Secretary of State Marshall stated that the Gearhart bill would destroy the substance of the reciprocal trade theory, a theory which is not only the cor nerstone of our general foreign trade policy, but the principle which we have insisted mnst be followed by nations participating in the European recovery pro gram. The secretary said that “only the shadow of the original act would be preserved in the substitute bill pro posed by Representative Gearhart, while its substance would be de stroyed.” And he added: “I think our national interests would be bet ter preserved to permit the trade agreements act to expire than to permit H.R. 6556 to be enacted.” He pointed out that any serious weakening of the trade agreements act at this critical period in world affairs would "almost certainly be regarded by other countries not only as a surrender of our leader ship in the international economic field, but as a repudiation of much that has been accomplished under our leadership in that field.” Presumably he meant this: When we agreed to the European recovery plan (E.C.A.), one of the things we emphasized, demanded in fact, was that the countries re ceiving our aid would have to break down tariff barriers against each other and the rest of the world. We knew there couldn’t be economic recovery if there was not a free flow of world trade. Even before the E.C.A. was ever thought of—since 1934, as a m atter of fact—by vigorously pursuing the reciprocal idea, by concluding re ciprocal trade treaties with so many countries (we have them will all but six or seven of the Marshall plan participants) we have encouraged the world to reduce tar iff walls. Thus it would hardly seem consistent suddenly to reverse ourselves and go back to the old days of high tariff economic isola tionism. The measure as the house pre sented it had another drawback in the eyes of Secretary Marshall and supporters of his point of view. The bill would force the President either to accept the recommendations of the federal tariff commission on ad justments above or below a certain bracket or submit them to a con gressional veto. That sounds rea sonable in theory, but what it does is to -.smash absolutely the whole basis for reciprocal trade negotia tion. A nasty little joker in the meas ure stating that tariff commission recommendations must be made on the principle of protecting the spe cial interests concerned revealed the intent of its framers. That pro vision would destroy the purpose of negotiation by removing trade agreements .from the field of the "general good” and narrowing them down to a question of whether the particular industry is to be pro tected from competition. Thus, not only would international relations and conditions have to be ignored entirely, but broad national inter ests as well. Secretary Marshall used strong words in criticizing this clause when he said: “The bill, in effect, makes pnre protection the sole criterion for tariff action.” Very few groups outside of the big industries which want to keep down foreign competition oppose- the reciprocal trade program. The great majority of the chambers of commerce are for it. Earl Shreve, national president of the chamber of commerce, has said that any “restrictions on or crippling of the trade agreements program would have very undesirable repercus sions. Discontinuance or impair ment would destroy consistency in United States policy and would undermine world confidence.” Former Republican presidential candidate Alfred E. LandoIi came out in favor of the three-year ex tension of the trade agreements act as urged by the administration. He said that failure to extend the act would be contrary to the Republican policy plank of 1944. Frequent public opinion polls have shown that the majority of the people favor trade treaties. In fact, persons who know what trade treaties are vote better than eight to one to retain them. I’m no economic expert, but all I have ever read or heard about the old high protective tariff de bates, the experience under the Smoot-Hawley bill, the post-World War I debt repudiation and depres sion would seem to indicate that the high tariff idea should and would be dead as a dodo. If not, it means we spin the wheel backward to the grand old days of high tariffs which killed foreign trade, made it impossible for for eign countries to sell us goods and spend their money here, or to pay back the money they owed us— simply to protect certain private interests.• « ’ * This Convention Is Different As the Republicans swing into ac tion with the greatest hope they have had for electing a president since the fifth birthday of this year's first voters, there are a num ber of striking contrasts Ij be noted between this convention in Phila delphia and former GOP conclaves. One big contrast is in the size of the audience which actually will behold the speakers as they step forward onto the rostrum. In 1940, some 10,000 people not actually in the hall witnessed the convention. Two television cameras m ir rored the scenes to a fairly select audience, some of it composed ot persons fortunate enough to share the hospitality of the Railroad club in the same building as the hall,. There one could escape the sound and fury, the glare of the lights, the heat and aridity, and could snack and sip In a comfor table chair. This year in Philadelphia, the estimated television audience will be counted in the millions, for net works will carry the scene to view ers from Massachusetts to Cali fornia. Instead of two lonely cam eras, there will be the pooled equip ment and programming of the va rious nets. But there is a greater contrast in the Republican political situa tion than in the delegates’ physi cal surroundings between today and 1949. No one who witnessed the Willkie stampede can forget. It was just about as unorthodox a procedure as history records, for the candidate was chosen, not in the hall, nor In a smoke-filled room either, but out in the sticks. If this is to be a “wireless” convention, the 1940 af fair was a. convention “by wire.” A group of high-pressure ama teurs, who were no amateurs when it came to organized action, was putting pressure on the “big men” in every community, and the “big men” were getting to bosses or to the delegates direct by telegram and telephone. The Willkie ama teurs “stole” the show from the pro fessionals, and the professionals swore it never would happen again. It isn’t happening this year. Another highly interesting con trast between conventions — this time between 1948 and 1944—is the hectic atmosphere of today as op posed to the comparative calm then. There was a “Dewey-has-it-in-the- bag” feeling back in Chicago four years ago which took the zip out of the Chicago air. Also the war over shadowed the • conclave then. The National Republican (the party newspaper) started off its lead ar ticle on June 26, 1944: “With the invasion news commanding the at tention of the entire convention . . .” Another contrast* between ’44 and ’48 is in the attitude toward foreign policy. Then it was the most delicate question which faced the platform committee. To day Senator Yandenberg has for eign policy wrapped up in a neat package signed with his name and sealed with his signet ring.

Wni FuracinIsEffective In Coccidiosis Control New Chemical Proves Valuable to Poultrymen Animal health, already in debt to human medicine for some effective help, now must acknowledge further aid from the same source. The thing for which acknowledgement is due is a drug called furacin. Natural source of this drug is oat hulls, corncobs, bran and similar farm wastes. It is one of the fur fural series of chemicals, some of which are used in trades and indus try. In the very first trial with cocci- diosis of chickens, furacin demon strated that it was equal to the well- known sulfa drugs in stopping losses. Further research proved that the drug is generally less toxic to chickens than the sulfa drugs, and that the growth of treated chickens is not retarded as much as in the case of those which have been treat ed with sulfa. This chemical is as yet available only in small quantities, and still is liigh in price. Even so, the amount required to be effective against coc- ciciosis is so small that the cost of treatment is less than with the sulfa drugs. Before long, products con-' taining this new chemical will be available to poultry raisers on a less limited scale. DDT Emulsion Controls Flies in Poultry House Spraying a I per cent DDT emul sion on poultry manure two days before the manure was removed from the dropping boards, which were cleaned once a week, gave 100 per cent fly control at the Hawaii agricultural experiment sta tion. The emulsion was applied at the rate of one pint per 30 square feet of area. The addition of lime twice a week to the manure before use of the DDT treatment reduced odor and mois ture and reduced the number of flies, but apparently decreased DDT efficiency, in the opinion of poultry specialists.

This re sults in the manufacture of many formulations, all of which can be classified as ester, amine or sodium salt sprays. Ester, amine and sodium salt dusts also are manufactured. The ester and the amine sprays are pro duced in liquid form, the sodium salt spray as a powder and the others as dusts. The 2,4-D chemical is used exten sively as a weed killer. Zinc Coating Provides Protection From Rust Ten year tests at Indiana indicate that wire havitig less than a half ounce of zinc coating for each square foot of wire surface had 100 per cent of the surface rusted during the period. Samples having more than one ounce of zinc coating show ed no rusting. Stainless steel and copper clad samples showed no rust ing. Lead clad samples showed a third of the area discolored.

X ctvfon \ R 7 E BEGIN a nqw series of ’ ' studies this quarter—a series of lessons based on less known Bible characters that have much to offer us. Such a char acter is found in Micaiah, about whom we learn in I Kings 22:1-40. Ahab, king of Israel, planned an expedition to re cover the city of Ramoth in Gilead, which the Syrians had taken. He in vited Jehoshaphat, king of Judah, to join him. Ahab re lied upon his court prophets to pre dict victory; but Micaiah, the prophet of God, whom Ahab had shut up in prison, when he was sum moned, at the insistence of Jehosha phat, told Ahab the truth—the un pleasant truth—which subsequent events verified.* * *. BRAVE ENOUGH TO TELL THE TRUTH THE first blessing in the study of this obscure Bible character, Micaiah, is to discover a man who «ras brave enough to tell the truth when he knew it was unpopular. It is always the best policy to tell the truth, though there be many in today’s world who deny this princi ple. It is not enough to say that we will tell the truth because it pays. That is true, but it is a by-product of doing what is right. One must tell the truth because it is right to tell the truth. Men swear with their hand upon the Holy Bible that what they testify* is the truth and nothing but the truth. But, alas, such men often tell anything but the truth. They have been carefully coached to evade the truth. Micaiah told the truth, because he was speaking for God. It hurt him, but it must needs be the truth which he spoke to Ahab. TRUTH DISREGARDED AHAB scorned the words of Mi-t caiah, and ordered him thrown back to prison. But scarcely had the prophet of God been thrust again into prison, until Ahab was bleeding to death in his chariot. Men not only take their own lives in their hands when they disregard the truth, but, like stubborn Ahab, they bring grief to countless others. Had Ahab heeded the words of truth which Micaiah proclaimed, Ahab might have lived. Indeed, had Ahab heeded the words of truth, he might have recovered Ramoth, and more beside. Truth may appear forever on the scaffold, wrong forever on the throne, but time always proves a hard taskm aster to the man who re* gards wrong instead of truth. THE SOURCE OF TRUTH GOD is the source of truth—all truth. If we miss this, we miss the lesson of the lesson. Note the words of the golden text, “As the Lord liveth, what the Lord saith unto me, that will I speak,” said Micaiah. Let us remember that it was God speaking through his prophet. Ahab could not have doubted that Micaiah was speaking what God had told him to speak. But Ahab did not want to hear the truth. He wanted to hear pleasing words that would encourage him in his evil plan. God speaks the first and last word on every subject, because God is truth. “I am the truth,” said Jesus. And he went on to say, "Ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.”# ♦ * THE PENALTY OF DISOBEYING THE TRUTH HORRIBLE, indeed, was the pen alty which Ahab suffered for disregarding the truth. The way of the transgressor is hard—always hard. The wages pf sin is death. Be sure your sins will find you out. Take down your cherished books of history. What do they say to you? That the straight line of truth is the only safe way in which to walk. It is applicable for the in dividual, for the family, for the community, for the nation, for civili zation. Thus every great prayer m ust be, “Thy will be done.” God’s will is the way of truth. Micaiah declared it. Every true prophet must declare it. It is the only way to peace and joy in this world.♦ * * (Copyright b y the International Council o/ Religious Education on JbehaJf of 40 Protestm l denominations. Released by W NV Features.)

The will provided for hiring ■ caretaker to "assume full charge of my pets, and the caretaker shall purchase fresh chopped beef, lamb for stewing, canned salmon, milk and bread at cost of at least $5 a week.” The trust fund is to continue In effect for 20 years after which it will be divided equally among three Odd Fellows lodges. Stone Cutter Cleaves Large Star Sapphire Worth $300,080 LOS ANGELES.—The story of the cutting of the world.’s largest star sapphire, valued at $300,000, was disclosed by the man who per formed the delicate task. Known as the Black Star of Queensland, the giant gem originally weighed 1,156 carats but now is 733 carats in its finished state. It is larger by 170 carat= than the previous record holder, the 563- carat Star of India in the J. P. Mor gan collection in the American museum of natural history. “I could have ruined it a hundred times during the cutting,” said Harry Kazanjian as he told how he and his brother, James, polished the stone. They first heard of it when it was uncovered in a river bed in Queens land, Australia, in a mine in which the Kazanjians have an interest. Kazanjian made elaborate draw ings before he began the polishing process. The task was to bring out the six-pointed star of the stone in the exact center. A special set of cutting and polishing tools was used in the painstaking work, which con tinued for days. The stone was cut here and shown in New York. The Kazanjians said the gem is not for sale.

The treatment has been quite successful, accord ing to the story. America’s First Apartments The famous cliff dwellings of Mesa Verde national park, Colo.,| represent America’s first apart ment houses, having been built be tween 1230 and 1274. Hundreds of years ago the Indians had to aban don the cliff dwellings when c great drouth struck. The TJte legend is that once the cliff dwellers were animals, living inside the earth. They climbed to the upper world - on a giant corn stalk made to grow by the Life Force and the Rain. Up on reaching the surface they as sumed the form of human beings; afterwards they celebrated their deliverance in underground kivas, cioihing themselves in skies to re semble their ancestors. When the Indians started building their dwellings above ground, the legend goes, the gods were displeased, withheld the rain and brought on the drouth. Wosnan Wins Prizes As Spare Time Hsbby SPRINGFIELD, ILL. — Somei ,women knit and many collect china.. ,Still others prefer to dig in the gar den or play bridge. But Mrs. Homer McLaren of Springfield scorns these long-popular feminine pursuits. She likes “contesting.” : In four months Mrs. McLaren has reaped a washing machine, radio,' radio-phonograph and three $10 prizes for her entries. But then,1 she’s been “contesting” for 10 or 12 years. Mrs. McLaren, author of numerous magazine articles, also teaches a course in “tricks of the contesting trades,” at the Spring field community school for adults. She prescribes her hobby especi ally for shut-ins, hospitalized vet erans, and those who want to forget their trouMes. She said: “It can also keep a . good many housewives from turning- into neurotics and it’s a fine time-' killer for commuters.” Mrs. McLaren began entering contests just as a hobby, but she told of one woman who helped sup-, port her mother and brother on her prizes. The winnings come in pretty handy, too, around Christmas’ time. The whole thing’s so easy, the Springfield woman doesn’t under stand why almost every housewife' doesn’t take up the hobby. She continued: “AU you have .to do is carry around a pad and pen cil while you do your work. If an' idea strikes you, jot it down.” Mrs.' McLaren adds that the idea seems to have caught on among a widen ing number of the public. Publica tions are sold listing current con tests and supplying information on how to become a “winner,” and contest clubs have even been formed through the country.

N-107, S EIm Street Great Neck, S . Y. THfi DAVIE RiSCURD. MOCKSVILLe N. C., JUNE 30. .948 Limitation Piaoed on Use Of New Drug, Streptomycin NEW YORK. — Dr. John G. Kidd of Cornell university medical cen ter told the New York Academy ot Medicine that the new drug strep tomycin often largely overcomes the form of tuberculosis known as miliary. Although thousands of persons have this kind of TB, it is rare com pared with the major form, which is liuig tuberculosis. What strepto mycin can do for the major dis ease is still unsatisfactory and puz zling. Seven autopsies proved, said Kidd, that in the miliary form, bad spots on the lungs were healed. Some times, however, the patients re lapsed and died of TB. One possible reason was the abil ity of TB germs to change their na tures and become resistant to strep tomycin. Kidd said that in one case where two units of the drug had at first killed these germs, after a while they were not killed by doses 250 times bigger. Large doses of streptomycin, he said, caused partial deafness of five out of seven of the persons autop- sied. Military Souvenirs Willed To Britons by Gen. Hamilton LONDON.—Gen. Sir Ian Hamil ton’s will, just published, tells a colorful story of a soldier who spent 75 yearf in the service of his coun try. To Winston Churchill the general left a black Buddha saved from a deserted temple at Mandalay. Ham ilton’s nephew received a lock of hair from Mary Queen of Scots and a broadsword presented to the gen eral by an emperor of Japan. Hamilton died last October at the age of 94. Among other bequests were a carpet from the king of Serbia, a gold box from the king of Romania, a centerpiece of porce lain from the German kaiser, a dag ger that Hamilton took from the body of an Afghan mullah whom he killed in a duel in 1879 and the ivory hilted sword he wore at the battle of the Dardanelles in World War I.
