As sometimes happens, let me say? Will it he spent, when you have died. To gretlfy a lot of pride? Will those for whom you’ve saved It up Expend it just to fill life’s cup With pleasure that will curse and blight And send them down to hell’s black nisht^ Who'll get your business, or yonr land.

W rong Party X JE WAS undersized, meek, diffi- ^ dent, subdued, and had applied lor a job as night-watchman. “Yes,” said the m anager, eyeing him dubiously, “but the fact is we want someone who is restless and uneasy, especially at night: some­ one who thinks the worst of every­body and whose suspicions are sel­ dom if ever allayed; someone who sleeps with one eye open always,'; someone with remarkable hearing, who starts at the slightest sound; someone who is always listening, thinking there are bad characters about. A meek, m ild watchman would be of no use to us. We want a large, aggressive, intrepid, and dangerous person; a good shot; bad-tempered, and revengeful, too. The kind of person in fact who, when roused, is a fiend incarnate.” “I ’ll send the wife ’round,” said tiie little man. REMOTE CONTROL -- "And^'what would you like for you^ birthday present. Tommy?” asked tee fond mother. "Oh,- a telephone!” replied the youngster promptly. “What^ ever for?” "T h en 'I can ring up and answer ^a c h e r’f; questions without having to go to sdiool.” ; .

Wammg that the prospect of an inter-planetary rocket is “higU.v improbable because of the fantastic cost and the engineering problems,” he asserted that if the national se­ curity depended lyjon it, the job could probably be done.The engineer, Dr. R. W. Porter, said that to escape the gravity pull of the earth, tiie rocket would have to streak away from the . earth’s atmosphere at about seven miles per second, or roughly 25,200 miles per hour. An ordinary single-stage rocket, such as the V-2 which has attained an altitude of 114 miles, would lack the necessary push to free it from the earth’s puU, Dr. Porter said. A two-stage rocket, however, could probably break free of grav- 'iiy, he added. He described a two- stage rocket as a sort of "duplex” in which a smaller rocket is car­ ried by a larger one until the larger has used ^ its fuel. It then drops off and the smaller one con­tinues under its own power. A ir Force ROTC Program Expanded by Air Command A new program designed to near­ly double college and university a u force ROTC quotas for the coming school year has been announced by the continental air command, Mitch- «1 air force base, New York. The plan calls for an expected enrollment of 17,500 students in flie air force reserve officers training corps units at colleges and uni­ versities throughout the United States for the school year 1949-50. ^he quota for the present school year is 9,496 students. ; Under the new program, the air force ROTC students wiU specialize during the second year of the basic -course .in addition to the special­ ization usually undertaken in the third and fourth year advanced course. Upon completion of one year of the basic course, the air force ROTC student w ill be offered seven spe­ cialized fields for the remainder of his college training. They are: gen­ eral administration, maintenance, armament, cominimications, air comptrollership, transportation, and air installations. The new program goes into ef­fect simultaneously with the end of the joint air force and arm y opera­tion of the ROTC program on Jufy 1, 1949. On that date the air force wiU assume fu ll responsibility for the administration and training of air force ROTC units. A m ajor source of new officers for the air force, the AP ROTC pro­ gram is designed to eventually pro­ duce a reservoir of 12,000 specialized officers annually. Lake Geneva Level Sinks But Eiffel Wouldn’t Show Europe’s drought has hit Lake Geneva, dropping the water level near the lowest m ark recorded in a century and exposing shore edge ro d s unseen for decades, Swiss .observers report. As long as the River Rhone flows, however, observes the National Geographic society, the 45-mile- long crescent lalce of blue on the Swiss-French border is unlikely to shrink more than a tiny fraction of its total volume. Renowned for its rugged Alpine backdrop and for international con­ ferences, the lake fills a vast rock canyon. Deepest holes in the canyon go down more than 1,000 feet. Even at record low water, Paris’s Eiffel Tower (984 feet) would stand in Lake Geneva’s deepest spot with its top far submerged.The Rhone, born in the melting ice of a massiv6 glacier in the Swiss Alps 6,000 feet above sea level, (irops almost one m ile in its tortuous,. 110-mile course to Lake -Geneva. Cascading down steep val­ leys, it becomes gray with silt as tributaries add to its size. The Rhone’s flow normally provides about two-thirds of the lake’s water supply. As the waters move the curving length of central Europe’s largest lake, all silt settles to the bottom. Flowing out under the seven bridges of the city of Geneva at the lake’s southwestern tip, the River Rhone is clear. $8.4 M illion From Refuse More than $8.4 m illion was col­ lected by 115 cities last year from refuse collection charges, the Inter­ national City Managers association reports. This included charges made for services rendered business and commercial establishments as well as to dwellings. Average collection was $73,150 with revenues ranging from $506,724 in Oklahoma City to .$1,700 in Park Ridge, HI., informa­ tion gathered for the 1949 Munici­ pal Year Book reveals. Charge is made for the collection of refuse from single fam ily dwellings in at least 125 municipalities. Atianta is the largest city charging residential collection fees. Its revenue from garbage collection last year, com­ m ercial and residential, was $63,- 50D. Purchasing Terry Towels Remember, when buying terry towels—or .turkish towels as they are often called—that they have two im portant jobs to do for you. They must absorb moisture, and they must be strong enough to with­ stand a ll the tugging and pullings while being used, and rubbing and twisting in laundering. So lo ^ for a firm , close, underweave—that’s the weave under the surface loops —to give you wearability. And look for close, thick loops on the surface of the towel for quick drying and to do a good absorbency job. Hold the towel up to the light before buying to determme the closeness of the weave. A close weave, which wiU wear the best, w ill allow very Uttle Ught through the towel. To Veterans Fred R. Leagans, Countv Veter' ans Service Officer, wishes to in ­ form Veterans of W orld W ar II, that application for dividend re> funds on National Service Life In- surance policies are expected to be available in September. The ser' vice office has had froquent in­ quiries recently regarding these dividends which will be based on the actual amount of premiums paid on the policies while in force. The Veterans Administration O f fice in Winston'Salem has very little information yet on the a> mount of the dividends, but as soon as more information is Ob' tained the county service office infoim the public through the press. The dividend checks are expected-to be mailed out begin­ ning January 1, 1950. O n policies matured by death the beneficiary will receive the dividend, it is un­ derstood. O n information avail' able it is the opinion of the coun­ ty service office that Veterans and their dependants in Davie County will receive $250,000 or more.

Oar County And Social Security Bv Mrs. Ruth G. Dufiy, Manager. Flag Day was celebrated last month. I was particularly inter* ested in an article appearing in a newspaper - urging “Flag Educa­ tion.” In the article the readers’ attention was called to the fact that there are certain approved practices for the use of O ld Glory and that each of us should be cer* tain that we not only know the rules regarding its use but observe them at all times. As a result of what our National Emblem repre­ sents, there is another subject of much importance about which we should be thoroughly informed. I refer, of course, to the Old'Age and Survivors Insurance provis' ion of the Social Security Act. This program is in its infancy, we might say, having been in opera' tion only since January 1, 1937. Because of this your editor and I have agreed that you are entided to authentic information as to your rights and responsibilities so that you can reap the benefits made'posMbfe liy '^ 'e ' pr^ You and j . are b^th jindebted to, yoiuTf editor—yMi' li^ ^ s e t h r b il'■ his paper you are getting informa­ tion that concerns the family po- cketbook, and 1, because he gives me the opportunity to tell you what you must do to safeguard your interest in the program and that of your family in case of your death. Let’s not forget this. W hat is the purpose of your So­ cial Security program? Its pur­ pose is to provide benefits for you and your family after you reach age 65 and stop work, and bene­ fits for your widow and children In case of your death at any age provided you have worked long enough in jobs that are covered by the program. The plan makes it possible for you through your Social Security Tax to make some provision for old age and death. Under this plan the money paid to you as a retired worker or to your survivors is yours and theirs by right just as any other insur­ ance money would be. Unfortunately every worker is not covered at the present time. Farm work, self employed, work in private homes, government ser* vice^ public schools, hospitals and other non-profit institutions are not covered. Persons so employ­ ed do not pay Social Security Tm - es and do not have Federal Social ' Insurance protection. Know whe­ ther or not your job is covered.

He has slapped Joan Bennett, Lizabeth Scott and Yvonne De Carlo. In “Manhandled,” his latest film for Paramount, he twice delivers a short right to Dorothy Lamour’s chin. As an actor no one can be slicker or slimier. In real life he’s one of the nicest guys you could ask to meet, devoted to his wife and two yourg sons, active in PTA r DAN DURYEA and with the Boy and Cub scouts. He played a cur on the stage in “ Missouri Legend,” which set him for a sim ilar role in “The Little Foxes” on stage and screen. In some 25 pictures he has given such excellent performances that some­one’s description, “a heel with sex appeal,” w ill probably type him forever. If Alexander Knox doesn’t like his role in “The Judge Steps Out” it will be his ovm fault; he col­laborated on the screen play. A reporter for 12 years before taking to the stage, he starts his 10th year in film s with this one. Ben Johnson, star of “ Mighty Joe Young,” was the favorite stunt man of Gary Cooper, Errol Flynn, Jobnny Weismul­ler and most of Hollywood’s other male stars before John Ford and Alerian Cooper dis­ covered him in “Fort Apache.” He was doing stunts for the picture on location at Monu­ ment Valley, Utah — now he’s starring in their new picture. ISie opportunity to paint Paulette <3oddard posing as “Anna Lu- casta” accounted for the stampede of students to enter the contest sponsored by Columbia Pictures at the Art Students league in New York. There w ill be money prizes, and the opportunity to have pic­ tures exhibited at a New York gallery — but what the students want most is to see Paulette. vegetarian and there Is no evidence that when she got on that bus with the top secret documents he got on at the same tim e, anyhow.”_ “I don’t see why Martha Brlen got so excited about it.”“She didn’t think either of ’em should have fled the country as stowaways.” “Did you read where Judy Hick- enlooper admits having kept all those Columbia library books?” “Yeah, but they’ll never convict Hickenhiss of anything, even in an extra session. It was a mistake to give either of them free scholar­ships.” “I get atvfiil depressed the way things are going. Truman is too late to save Hong Kong, I ’m afraid, even with Stan M usial and Johnny Mize offer­ ing to do it with 230 planes. Bob Porterfield and Harry Bre- cbeen ain’t doing so well with that Atlantic pact, either.” “W hat’s the Atlantic pact?” “It’s the one to keep anybody on our side jum ping to the Mexican league without a passport and loyalty test.”* “Do you think the country's fac­ing a big slump?” “You never .can tell so early in the season. The standing on Fourth of July is what counts. I think con­gress should vote for economy like ex-president Olympia recom­ mended in the Capot report to General Symington.” “How are things going over there with the Big Six in Paris?”"E rnie Diurocher is causing trouble and they’re stiE cross- examining Lee Shubert, but I think everybody w ill get pensions at the age of 45 before they get through, ijnless Vishinsky gets back Into the lineup.”“What’s the m atter vrith him ?” “He’s got a spur in his left heel.”_•_ “What’re you doin’ for fun these days?” “Oh.

More than 42,000 people attended. That’s more than half the rival Yanke? baseball clubs draw,_*_ It was a sensational affair and Miss McBride scored standing up. It wasn’t necessary for her to slide, although it would have pleased the fans no end.__,__ And if she had had to slide she could have done it. Mary (Happy) McBride has the base­ball spirit. She can hit and field. position is beyond her. If you take note of the countless commercials the lady has delivered for dinner-table edibles yon have to adm it no­body has been more versatile “ behind the plate” over so long a period._•_ Mary is in her way a pitcher, too. She has never had to be yanked off the mound in her career with the NBC club. Her greatest asset is her control. There is almost no wind up in her delivery. Smoothness mark? her style.* The lady is a good all-around player, too. Shortstop taxes her, but every other position is duck- soup—and she wiU name the brand of duck soup and teU you where to get it.♦ The striking thing about her Yankee Stadium workout was that she was the only player. It was her party and her game. She covered all positions and played an error­ less game, if you overlook a couple of dropped eulogies for a prepared jelly. The Fiction Corner MISTER GILL By Richard H. Wilkinson At FIRST M r. Otis G ill had seemed to take a liking to young Arthur Forbes. But he changed his opinion when the Champion began to buck the choppy seas of the open Atlantic. She was not a large liner, and the waves were running high. Arthur Forbes turned away suddenly and, clutching the deck rail for sup­ port shaped an unsteady course for the companionway. M r. G ill burst into guffaws of laughter. “Seasick!” he said, addresshig a young couple nearby and nodding toward the companion way. 3- Minnie “Should have Fiction homeand tended to his knitting.” The young couple smiled politely but with a lack of enthusiasm. Neither of them felt equal to the task of getting up and following on young Arthur Forbes’ heels. The dining salon was located be­neath the forward deck; M r. G ill’s table was at the extreme end, near that section where the vessel’s bow began to narrow. He had hardly seated himself when he saw that young Arthur Forbes was placed two tables away and slightly be­hind. There was a plate of food on the table before the youth, but it was untouched. Like one in a trance M r. Forbes was sitting with eyes widened greatly beyond their norm al size, checks as pale as death. After a tim e M r. G ill saw that the youth at the other table was staring toward a port-hole, and his grin broad­ ened. The port-bole was lo­cked far forward, and vrith each dip of the vessel one conld see the entire slope of a wave, from trongh to crest. Then for a space there would be nothing but open sky. It provided a sensation sim ilar to riding on a roller coaster. M r. G ill knew that as long as young Forbes continued to stare through the port-hole his seasick­ness would steadily grow worse. And he chuckled at the thought.After a while M r. G ill found it was easier to stare straight ahead than to sit half-turned in his chair in order to watch young Forbes, who, after all, wasn’t the most pleasing sight in the world. And in staring straight ahead Mr. G ill found that he was looking directly through the porthole at the swish­ing seas. I J E WATCHED idly for a few mo- ^ mcnts and then looked away, conscious of a feeling in his stom­ ach not wholly normal. The sen­sation passed and he looked again at the port-hole, feeling more com­ fortable in his position. Instantly the same strange sensation at­ tacked him again. M r. G ill was sober now; his face pale; his eyes glassy. Realization of what was happening to him came like a shock. He was seasick! Helplessly, miserably iU. Never in his life could M r. G ill remember feeling so utterly at the mercy of anything. Miraculously M r. Gill reached the doorway and dis­appeared up the stairs. Instant­ ly the dining salon was a bed­lam of laughter. Up toward the bow young Arthur Forbes was wiping some white substance from his cheeks and grinning broadly. Several men came over and spoke. “I ’ll change your order, sir. Bring you some hot food.” M r. Forbes smiled. “Thanks. And say, steward, that was a smart idea of yours—asking me to play the role of the helplessly seasick pa.<!senger and placing G ill at that table directly opposite the port­hole.” The steward nodded, eyes a- twinkle. “We have a m an like Mr. G ill on board every voyage, sir. And we have that table placed there for just his type. No one else is asked to sit so far forward.” M r. Forbes chuckled. “Think of everything for the comfort of your passengers, eh? Well, if you didn’t I ’m afraid this voyage would have proved almost intolerable—with G ill talking the way he was.” CROSSWORD PUZUE LAST WEEK'S ANSWER ^ ACROSS1. Strong, sharp flavor 5. Spotted 9.

In the Umted States there are approximatdy 779 m illion acres of land which w ill grow nothing but hay, grass and other herbage unfit for hu­ m an consumption.This great acreage represents 41 per cent of the total land of the nation. About 9 per cent of the lands in the United States are plowable but are used also to pro­duce pastiure, hay or forage crops. It can be concluded, therefore, that about 50 per cent of the United States would not be used if it w erf not for meat animals. This Uttle fcUow, obviously so well-started In life, is sym­ bolical ot what good pasturage can mean to cattle and just how much cattle depend on grass. In the United States there are approximately 779 m illion acres of land which can­ not grow anything but hay, grass and other herbage.. Of the total feeds consumed by beef cattle 78.7 per cent is grass, hay and dry roughage. A m inim um of grain is needed to bring feeder steers from 700 pounds to 1,000 pounds when the principal part of the ration is made up of hay, en­ silage or other roughage.H ie process of producing beef cattle norm ally involves the fol­ lowing steps; 1. The purebred operator who produces the sires and females which are the foundation of beef anim al production. IM s branch of the cattle industry is one that re­quires heavy investment and effi­ ciency in management.2. The commercial breeder who produces the calves which are the offspring of commercial herds ol female and purebred sires. 3. The pasture cattleman who grows the anim al from the wean­ing or yearling stage to two yean old, taJdng his profit from the poundage gained on grass and hay.4. The feeder who “finishes” the anim al from grass stage to slaugh­ter condition, disposing of a largs percentage of roughage. Crop Rotation Crop rotation with deep-rooted legumes, plant food and good man­ agement methods are the “gas, oil and lubricants” that keep youi soil’s crop producing machine go­ ing on high. Each of these has a job to do. Each needs help from the others. They a ll have to work like a team.Valuable as a good rotation is in balancing soil - buUding legume crops against soil-robbing roit crops, it has to be backed up by wise land m anagem eit methods. Cropping in even the best rotation drains the soil’s supply ot pho*. phate and potash. And even if your good manage­ ment program puts back every scrap of barnyard manure, plows under the legumes and r e t u ^ straw, com stalks and crop after- m ath to the soil, you still ship away hundreds of pounds of plant food in the grahi, beef and m ilk yov sell every year. Good Pasture Increases Dairy Herd Production W ifii 2.S m illion fewer cows on farms now than in 1945, possibilities for profit in dairying are greater if labor-saving, high value pasture is the center of the production pro­gram. Good pasture can increase m ilk output and cut production costs. That means a bigger profit margin. Getting bigger pasture yield^ is a matter of feeding the soil plant nutrients so it can feed legume-grass mixtures. New Flowered Aprons Make Happy Working Ga y aprons for pretty maidens!

Inspect Ponds Last week D. F. Ashton, Ento­mologist with the Malaria Investi­gation and Control U nit of the State Board of Health, spent three days in Davie and Yadkin Coun ties with the local Sanitarian, Carl E. Shell, making inspections of fish ponds. Only a small number of ponds in Davie were inspected at this time, but Mr. Ashton plans to return in a couple of weeks to complete the inspection. Most ot tha ponds inspected were in fairly good condition, and where recom­ mendations of the soil conserva­ tion service had been followed, were well constructed. Where pos­ sible to contact the o^vner, Mr. Ashton made recommendations for proper management of the pond to produce the maximum number of fish and to minimize mosquito growth. A t the present time we have practically no malaria in this part of the state, but if the large num­ber of fish ponds now being con­ structed in this area are not prop­ erly maintained, we may have a problem as bad or even worse than it is on the coast. However, there is no immediate cause for alarm. State Board of Health regulations requiie a steep shoreline to discourage vegetative erowth and some means of fluc­ tuating the water level and drain ing the pond if necessary. A fish pond properly constructed and properly maintained can be of considerable economic value and a great source of enjoyment.CARL E. SHELL.

C. ------------WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS----------- GOP Leaders Rap Demo Depression And Plan Dill to Meet Sitnation; Drannan Plan Held Farm Vote ‘Dait’ HOUSING: Action Seen Indications were that despite op­position from many quarters, the administration’s big new housing bill would get out of committee and go to the house floor for action. THE RULES committee, which twice last year killed sim ilar legis­lation, had refused to clear the cur­rent bill. But Rep. A. J. Sabath (D., 111.) was predicting the com­ mittee would act to clear the meas­ure. Sabath was on fairly safe ground, for under the new house “anti- bottleneck" procedure adopted in January, the m ultibillion - dollar housing bin could be put to a house vote over the rules committee’s objections. THE housing program, one of President Truman’s m ajor cam­ paign promises, was approved by the senate AprU 21 on a 57 to 13 vote. It then bogged down in the house. The bill calls for a vast program of slum clearance, low-rent hous­ ing and farm housing aids. Bares Mission (EDITOR’S NOTE: When opinions axe expressed In Uiese columns, they are those of Western Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not neeessarlly ot this newspaper.^ FARM VOTE: Bait Is Set There was more to the Brannan federal farm program than had met the eye. According to seasoned Washington observers, the plan would serve as a bait for the farm vote in the congressional races next year. For instance, if administration leaders could extend wartime price support for another year, it would give voters a chance to pass on the controversial Brannan plan. Thus the plan could be dangled as a m ajor issue when Democrats and Republicans began struggling for the important farm vote. AT a midwestern Democratic conference, both Brannan, secre­tary of .agriculture, and J. Howard McGrath, chairman of the national Democratic committee, made a plea for extension of the price sup­ port program as they began to plan for next year’s tug-of-war with the GOP. McGrath, making it plain that the Brannan plan has Mr. Truman’s endorsement, said continuation of the present relatively high-price support program was to be pre­ ferred to the Aiken long-range farm law passed by the 80th Republican congress. Unless congress acts, Mc­ Grath pointed out, the Aiken law will go into effect next year. The Brannan plan is designed to support farm income at a “pros­ perity" level, but at the same time to provide consumers with lower prices for perishable foods—espe­cially meat, dairy and poultry prod­ ucts—when there are surpluses.It would use government payments to assure desired farm cash re­ turns, PRESENT laws direct the gov­ ernment to support prices of major products at not less than 90 per cent of parity. CONJURER: Name, Smiie Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., who inherited a name and a smile to conjure with and wasted little time in conjuring with them, has been duly sworn in as a member of the house of representatives. The 34-year-old congressman from New York’s 20th district, filling the seat left vacant by the death of Sol Bloom, ran as a candidate of the Four Freedoms and Liberal parties, although he will operate as a work­ing Democrat in the legislative arena.' ROOSEVELT failed to get the regular Democratic nomination during the campaign so he ran on the Four Freedoms ticket. In so doing he scored a popular upset over the regular (Tammany) Demo­crat, a Republican and an American Labor candidate. The third son of the late Presi­dent took the oath from Acting Speaker John W. McCormack (D..Mass.), while his mother beamed happily from the gallery.During his first day on the job Roosevelt: CHATTED briefly with President Truman; denied a rumor that he m ight run for mayor of New York; allowed that he hoped congress would repeal the Taft-Hartley labor law, enact Mr. Truman’s civil rights program and put through a na­tional housing act.It all looked like a reasonable be­ginning for another Roosevelt politi­cal career. Ex-Commiuiist Editor Louis Budenz is sbown as lie told a senate committee that Ger- hardt Eisler, who fled the U.S. as a stowaway* was ordered to Europe by Moscow to train “new espionage agents” for use in the United States. Budenz testified in connection with the committee’s prohe of subver­sive activities by aliens. DEPRESSING: 'Right Now' “I regret,” the senator from Maine said, “that we are now in a state of depression. It is not a thing of the future. It is right now." After thus evoking the spirit of the 1930’s, Sen. Owen Brewster an­nounced blandly that senate Re­publicans shortly would sponsor a 50-million-doUar public-works and relief-planning program “to meet the growing Democratic depres­ sion.” THE BILL to be projected along these lines would not in itself pro­ vide funds for public works, but merely would finance the planning of a “shelf” of such works to be started when deemed advisable. Sen. Robert Taft (R ., Ohio), who also is in on the deal, said that what he had in mind was a bill that would establish the framework for federal grants to states if their relief cases should reach a certain percentage of their total population Said Taft: “What we Republicans want to avoid is the creation of another WPA like Harry Hopkins ran.” Without trying to guess how much relief spending might be necessary under such a plan, Senator Brew­ ster opined that would “depend up­on just how bad this Dem ocratic' depression gets.” Whether this “relief biU” pro­posal is sincere or whether it is a cynical attempt to discredit the ad-, ministration in the face of the com­ ing 1950 elections, only tim e would tell. TRUMAN: Drops Curb Bill There was one thing about Presi­dent Truman—he was beginning to develop the ability to recognize a hint when he saw it. There have been times when the President seemed to suffer from an ability to do that, but now it’s different. The President, obviously with an understanding ear to the ground, has decided he won’t press con­ gress to give him standby war powers. THAT”S not only wise of the President, it’s good strategy, par­ticularly since it would have been impossible fot the administration to convince the 8Ist congress that any such powers are needed. However, there was an official reason advanced for the change in objectives. One authority described the revision of plan as a “quiet dem ilitarization” of the national security resources board on White House orders. In other words, the emphasis would be away from keep­ing the people agitated and alerted for possible future war. THE war powers bill would have provided a detailed mobilization act covering priority and seizure powers, controls over prices, man­power; production and transporta­tion.' It would, if enacted, go into effect autom atically on the declara­ tion of war emergency by congress. Mr. Trvunan was said to have decided it would be inappropriate to try to get such a law passed in peacetime. SCHOOL AID BILL OPPOSED Eisenhower Warns of Too Much Government Dwight D. Eisenhower, speaking not as a m ilitary leader but as a college president, again saw fit to warn the nation against letting the federal government get too strong. It was the second tim e the supreme commander of Allied for­ces in World War II had issued that warning. Declaring that he is opposed to legislation which would make fed­ eral money available to help pub­ lic schools in all states, he said such a practice would stimulate a competition among states and localities for greater shares of gov­ ernment money.He conceded some areas have such meager tax resources that they need' air, and that he would favor aid to such areas; but with­ out abuse or direct interference. RED CHINA: Quiescent Communism, like the worm it the bud, was creeping swiftly through China as the presence oi the Red conquerors began to make itself felt. At one village meeting in north ern China, a man, bewildered anc dismayed by the use of the Russiar hammer-and-sickle flag in Chinese Communist meetings and parades, ventured to rise and ask a ques­tion: “WHY IS THIS DONE?” he said. “Russia is a foreign country and we are Chinese.” And the presiding political com­ missar snapped, “This subject is not on the agenda.” About the only thing that did show up on the agenda throughout the country was the puzzled but ready acquiescence of the Chinese to Communist rule. As a result, the nation appeared to be well on its way to assuming a regular orbit as a willing satellite of Russia. FOR THjS MOST PART there have been no signs of coercion or compulsion in the relationship. There is every evidence that the Chinese Communists are in fact eager to follow the dictates of Moscow, And that revelation should be enough to destroy any illusion that the Chinese Communists are just simple agrarian reformers. They art whole-hearted, com­ pletely dogmatic Communists, fol­lowing the doctrines laid down by Karl Marx and adapted for 20th ;entury application by his disciples, Lenin and Stalin—and by Mao Tze- tung, leader of China’s Commu­ nists. THERE IS as yet no conciusive evidence that the Kremlin is giving direct, active aid to the Chinese Communists. But the affinity and spirit of cooperation that exists be­ tween Moscow and Peiping, capital af Communist China, Is tangible snough. The application of China's m- temal situation to the rest of the world is disturbingly clear: Through the rule of Mao Tze-tung and his party, China inevitably is becoming a massive extension of the Soviet power-bloc. PRICE SUPPORT: Smoke, Smoke, Smoke Arrangements for new price sup­port programs for tobacco were announced by the federal depart­ment of agriculture. THE government w ill make loans Dn flue-cured tobacco at 90 per cent Df the parity price—as it was June 15. Loans on hurley and other types Df tobacco would be at the Septem­ ber 15 parity price, except fire- :ured tobacco, which would be 75 per cent of the’ burley rate, and dark air-cured tobacco 68% per :ent of the burley rate. (Parity is a price based on the relationship between prices of the things the farmers have to buy and prices of the products they sell. The government uses a basing period during which this relationship of prices gave the farm er what it con­siders a “fair profit” ).THE RATES a pound at which the support prices w ill be paid was to be announced in July for flue- cured tobacco and for other types in October. The fuU loans wiU be made only to tobacco growers who do not grow more tobacco than they are permitted under marketing quotas, these quotas have been set up for tlue-cured, burley, fire-cured and dark, air-cured tobaccos. There are no quotas on other types. Didn't Like It INTBODI7CING “OPPORTUNITIC DRIVE” . . .

Marshall Plan W H E N W ashington dignitaries W gathered at dinner to com memorate the MarshaU plan prob ably only one m an present really knew how the MarshaU plan got started—President Truman. And not even Truman knew or remem- bered a ll the details. The birth of the M arshall plan-- believe it or not—was influenced by the illness of Senator BUbo oi Mississippi. Furthermore, this plan —now a great force in revitalizing Europe—was a complete 'accident as far as the "White House waf concerned.President Truman had been scheduled to make a speech at Cleveland, Miss., in the winter ol 1947 and called in Dean Acheson. then under-secretary of state, to ask if he could get him out of a jam . He explained that to please some of his wife’s friends he had promised to speak in Cleveland, that the folks in Mississippi had made elaborate preparations. But, he said, he couldn’t go. Senator Bilbo was back in the state, iU, after the Senate’s re­fusal to seat him , and it would be political suicide, Truman felt, if he set foot inside the state at that tim e. He had w ritten his M ississippi friends, he said, asking if they would accept a cabinet member in­ stead, and they replied that they were greatly interested In foreign affairs and the only m an they would fake as a sub­ stitute was acting secretary of state Dean Acheson. Acheson of course promptly ac> cepted the President’s personal plea, in fact told Truman he had been eager to make a major speech. But, he warned, it would be an explosive one. Wallace’s Mistake So, having in m ind Hem-y Wal­ lace’s famous speech on Russia which was officially cleared w'ith the White House—but which Tru­m an him self didn’t read, Acheson took great pmns to have his speech carefully examined. His strategy was to have so many cabinet experts read it that it would not be sent to Senators Tom Connally and Arthur 'Vandenberg whom he suspected m ight pour on the cold water. The perusers of the speech later held a meeting. Since there was nothing in the speech about bases, the army-navy had no objection. D r. Nourse suggested a few changes of figures, which were ac­cepted. Secretary of commerce Harrim an, who had been talking to Acheson privately, was enthusi­astic, while Truman was delighted that Acheson was getting him out of ills Mississippi speaking jam . The British press, however, played up the story big. And as a result Scotty Reston of the New York Times called on Acheson to ask whether this was a new Ameri­can foreign policy. “ You had better ask the White House,” Acheson replied. Planted Question So, at the next 'White House press conference. Reston asked a care- full,v worded question as to whether the Cleveland, Miss., speech repre­ sented Acheson’s views or the ad­ministration’s views. Truman, still full of gratitude, and recalling that the army, navy, et al had approved the speech, re­ plied that it represented adminis. tration policy. A few days later, Acheson v;ent to his chief. Secretary of State M arshall, and said in ef­fect: “I have kicked a fairly im portant ball up in the air for you, but it’s falling rapidly. How about catching ii . ing a touchdown?” After the speech, Acheson picked up a suggestion by Senator 'Van- denberg that a committee of prom­ inent Americans be appointed to push the idea. Truman didn’t like the suggestion, but Acheson argued him into it. “Here is a m an who more than anything else wants to get the Re­publican nomination for President of the United States,” he told Tru­man, in effect. “Of his other two rivals. Governor Dewey never says anything about anything, while Senator Taft never loses an op­portunity to attack you on domestic issues and crab at you on foreign policy. Vandenberg has played the p m e very well on bipartisan pol­icy, and you oguht to agree to his idea in order to keep him sweet.” Hoover, Baruch Out The President did agree, and a meeting was held to appomt mem­ bers of a committee to serve under secretary of commerce Harrim an. Vandenberg was present. Acheson said he didn’t care who was on the committee just so long as Herbert Hoover and Bernard Baruch were not. Vandenberg, however, looking jver the suggested names, said he had nothing against them, but that v/hat the committee needed was an elder statesman as chairm an.

MIRROR Of Your M IND I Should Weigh Dad's Dislike By Lawrence Gould Should yon m arry a girl Answer: This m ight largely de­pend on how the girl feels about her father, since your greatest danger in this situation is that her remorse at having m arried some­ one whom he disliked m ight in time have the effect of “turning her against you.” But most fath­ers do not relish the idea of giving up their daughters and m ay take out their resentment on any m an one of them wants to m arry. If this is the situation, you can only go ahead on the assumption that “Dad” w ill eventually realize his daughter is a woman and entitled to her own life. Are norm al children interested in sex? Answer: Of course, just as they are interested in a ll that goes on aroimd them, especially if their parents make a mystery or secret of it. U you are worried over your child’s concern with this subject, read a new book, “ The Normal Sex Interests of Children.” by Mrs. Frances B. Strain. This book whose father dislikes yon? gives in simple language a true, scientifically-accurate picture of the natural development of a child’s sexual interests and feel­ ings, with soimd advice as to how to handle real or supposed m is­conduct. It’s a book I ’ve -wanted to see for years. Does anyone want to be neurotic? Answer: Yes. At bottom there can be no other reason for devel­oping a neurosis. But because the person does not know what he is doing and cannot help doing it, to blam e him is as im fair as it is use­ less. A neurotic symptom—a pho­bia, for example—represents the only way of getting satisfaction or avoiding danger the person can recognize w ith his emotions, w hat­ever his “common sense” m ay tell him . And he’ll cling to it like the proverbial drowning m an tintil he is helped to realize that the same goal can be attained by less pain­ful methods.

Barton WE ARE fam iliar w ith allergy in which the tissues of some individuals (15 to 20 per cent of the population) react differently than most of us to certain substances that float in the air, are eaten in food, or injected under the skin. We see it in forms of hay fever, asthma, head colds, stomach up­sets, hives and other skin erup­ tions.Allergists, specialists in allergy, tell us that there are m any sub­ stances causing allergy that are still unknown or not suspected. One of the commonest causra is ordi­ nary house dust, to which one or more of the fam ily are allergic but blame their symptoms on pollen or sim ilar substances.Some years ago a magazine men­tioned a case of allergy in which the father of the household, af­flicted with asthma, traveled ahead of his fam ily to locate a district where he would be free of asthma. Finding such a place, he would send for the famUy. ShorUy after the fam ily arrived, his asthma again would afflict him . It was only after several such movings that it was learned that it was the fur of the beloved fam ily cat that was causing the asthm atic a tta c h . 'While allergists have found some cases of allergy to be caused by street dust, it is more often sub­ stances in the air of the home that are to blam e. Some of these sub­ stances are the children’s toys stuf­fed with wool or cotton lint, insect sprays, heavy curtains, mattress fillings or feathers or cotton, cer­tain domestic articles, the odors of perfumes, and powders, hair dyes,' eyebrow and Up pencils. The thought, then, is that where the cause of the allergic symptoms is unknown, and the usual test for foods and pollen have been made, the dust in the home—particular^ in' the bedrooms (mattresses) and in setting rooms (stuffed chairs and sofas)—should be carefully tested by an allergist. The cause of al­ lergic symptoms can be found in the m ajority of cases if diligent search is made. While all foods are nourishing, the foods that should be eaten daily in the usual servings (the protec­tive foods) are meat, eggs or fish, m ilk and dairy products and green vegetables. , , , If all of us were to visit our physician and dentist regulM ly, many of us would not be siflicted with chronic illness in old age, as is so often the case.

SCBIPTUHE: Psalms 120—134. DEVOTIONAL HEADING: Psalms 125. Marching Songs Lesson for July 10, 1919 D r. Forem an WE did not win all the battles we fought with-Japan. The day of a certain naval defeat near the Philippines, an American “baby” carrier, left to its fate, was doing its best to get away from the purstiing Japanese. A ll af­ternoon it dodged and twisted. Ene­my destroyers and planes were hot on its traU, and it w a s a “sitting duck” in case they really • g o t th e range. No one on board expected to live. The only question in any­ body’s m ind was: How soon w ill they get us? But late in the after­noon, for some reason never ex­ plained, the enemy gave up the chase, and the American ship slipped off into the protecting night. The next day, as the men gathered for a special service of thanksgiving, the chaplain read the 124th Psalm . It came as a new Psalm altogether to those men, even to those who had known it by heart:“if it had not been the Lord who was on our side, when men rose up against us, then they had swallowed us up quick, when their wrath was kindled against us; then the . . . proud waters had gone over our soul. Blessed be the Lord, who hath not given us as a prey to their teeth.” "L et Me W rite A Nation’s Songs” •pH E POW ER to th rill has not ^ been lost by the Psalms, as the men on that carrier found out. The group numbered 120 through 134 in our Bibles are known as the “P il­ grim Marching Songs,” and were originally used by the Hebrews as they went year by year up to their capital ciiy of Jerusalem and to the Temple which was the center of their religion. Then as now, the Hebrews were a singing people. A nation that cannot sing, a nation without songs, is a dism al coimtry indeed. Difference amoiu; Tarions coimtries is symbolized by their songs, or ihe lack of them. The Chinese, for instance, have no song that draws tbem all together in the same way that Englishmen are nnited in “ God Save the King” or as French­ men once were by the “M ar­seillaise.” When it comes to pass, as once it did in the United States, that one part of the nation w ill sing one song (say, "John Brown’s Body” ) whUe another part w ill not sing that song but another one (say, “Dbde,” ), then civil war is at the gates. Only people who w ill sing together cau be trusted to live together. * • • S in ^ g Church TN the long caravans, marching * up the rocky hillside trails to Je- rus^em , the ancient Hebrews put their faith into stirring words set to music. So it is always. A ll over the Christian world, wherever and whenever the singing is good, re­ligion is warm and vigorous. Where the heart is faU, there w ill be song. Revivals of re­ ligion are revivals of singing. To this day a stranger in a strange c l^ , looking for a church home, is most likely to settle down in the church where the singing is the best. It is not an accident that the Mora'vian church is at the same time the church that makes more of Easter than some other churches, it is the church where at funerals the music is never sad but joyous, not mourning-songs but trium phant hymns of ChrisUan faith. Patriotism and Religion D E A D these marching Psalms through—the reading tim e is only a few minutes—and see for yourself how the ancient Hebrew men of God united their praise of Him with love for their country. To this day, in our Christian h ^ - nals, patriotism and religion are often combined. The £higlish na­ tional anthem, “ God ^ v e the King,” is a,prayer; so is “America the BeautifuL” National hymns have a rightful place in a book of public worship. For while patriot­ ism , by itself, is a poor substitute for religion, still a m an who w ill not love his country lades some­ thing of being a good Christian, and on the other hand a m an without faith in God makes a very poor citizen.

C:anning vegetables is one of the best ways of feeding the fam ily economically as weU as satisfying them with valuable nutrients. Chart jrour course now, and then sail throtigh the season, full speed ahead.• * • Clear the Kitchen For Canning Time W O M E N who do their canning ” expertly organize their work on an efficiency basis such as is used in a factory. They actually prepare for the job before they start working on it. Getting ready for vegetable can­ning means re-organizing th e kitchen. Clear out table and shdf space that you need for jars and equipment. ^Make certam you have a ll equip­ ment dean and in working order before you get the vegetables into the house. 'What equipment? You’ll probably need sharpened paring knives for preparing the produce. Kitchen scissors that are not rusted w ill help in preparing some types of vegetables like green beans.Have your canning spoons, ladles or dippers a ll ready in place where they’re going to be used, next to tlia range.> • • Select QuaUty For Canning Have you ever wondered why the com you canned is dry instead rtf juicy, or peas are pulpy instead of moist and sweet? The fault may lie in the kind you chose for can­ ning. Only the highest quality produce should find its way to the can since canning cannot improve qiuJity. It merely preserves it.Vegetables selected for canning are usually best when just slightly under-ripe or im ­m ature. Peas, for example should be sweet - and ten­der; corn should spurt juice when pressed with a fingernail.Gnarled, bruised, wrinkled or other­ wise imperfect vieg- etables are not fit to be canned. You cannot expect them to have good flavor and color.Perfect vegetables rushed from LYNN CHAMBERS’ MENU Salmon Loaf Baked PotatoesButtered Cabbage Fresh Apricot-Cherry Salad Hot Biscuits Jam Beverage Coconut Cake the garden to the can in a m ini­m um amoimt of tim e w ill give the most satisfactory results.* « • Clean Vegetables Before Preparation pL E A N lN G the vegetables is the V step after bringing them into the kitchen. This should be done be­fore the skin is broken, or some of the valuable juices m ay escape. D irt is not only objectionable in itself, but it m ay fre q u e n ^ con­ tain certain or­ ganisms which hold spoilage. Wash the vege­tables under run­ ning water, o r place then in a large vessel of water and lift them out gently onto a colander. Do not pour dirty water off the vegetables, as dirt m ay re­ m ain in the pan and then m ix witb the vegetable.• • • TN THE CHART given above, pre- * cooking is recommended for the green vegetables such as peas, green beans and sim ilar vegetables. This means immersing in boiling water for the designated amoimt of tim e to shrink or w ilt them in order to pack them easily and com> pactly.• * • Pressure Cooker Is Recommended •PO PROCESS VEGETABLES ^ properly, a pressure cooker is an invaluable aid. For vegetables, have the gauge read 10 pounds be­fore you start counting processing time. - The pressure should not be al­ lowed to fluctuate since this m ay drain liquid from the jar and give a poor looking jar. It w ill also over­ cook the vegetables, or undercook them, as the case m ay be.Vegetables are a non-acid food, and this means they require a high temperature to k ill the bacteria which lurk in them. This is why pressture cooker processing is rec­ ommended for them. Fruits, which are ad d , need much less proces­sing tim e, and much lower tem­ perature in which to have the bac­ teria killed. Always follow the directions for your pa^cvdar type of pressure cooker. One thing is generally true of a ll types, and that is to leave the petcock open for at least seven minutes during which tim e steam escapes from ibe cotter. Unless this is foUowed closely, the pressure m ay not be accurate, for a ll air must be exhausted before allowing the cooker to come to pressure. Another safe rule to follow is to allow the vegetables to boil 10 m in­ utes in an open vessel before tast­ ing or eating after they are taken from the can. Features) LYNN SAYS: FoUow Vegetable Canning Pointers On jars on which you have used a self sealing lid, do not turn the jars upside down, or bump or treat them roughly as this m ay cause the seal to be broken.You’ll need two to two and one- haU pounds of the following for one quart of canned vegetables: whole beets, carrots, string beans and tomatoes. Eight ears of com w ill generally (ill one quart when canned. After filling the ja r with vege­ tables and water, you m ay find some air bubbles anchored against the sides of the jar. Remove these by running a spatula between the glass and the vegetable. Jars which have been sealed with a self-sealing lid, should not be tested for sound until 24 hours after processing. It w ill take this length of tim e to cool the contents of the jar.Six pounds of greens, such as spinach, are required to make one quart of the canned product.

JtJLY 6. 1949 LO O K IN GANJSAD GEORGE s. BENSON Picsiiint—MariiHf CMtfc Sean). Jritx sts Help for the Boss Once in awhile, a new chapter is written in the history of labor union activities. Most labor-management difficulties are very old problems that have existed ever since man iirst hired-out to another; however, a lot of them belong to new pitua- ttions, and sometimes we have thought they were new because we had not solved them before. But we •have paid increasing attention to hours, wages, and working condi­tions. A new science of industrial relations has grown up, with nearly every company giving time and ef­ fort to improve thing.s for the •worker.One-sided Progress?In this the unions have helped, ■for unions in fact exi.cl for the main .purpose of looking out for tlieir own. Now, if we have reached the place yhere union members can see things they can do in turn for their employers, have we not reached an Important milestone in industrial relations?Just recently Mr. Walter Cener- «izo, president of the American W a t^ Workers Union, led members ef his union in a project designed to help the Waltham Watch Company. This company, one of three major American watchmakers, had closed Its W altham, Mass., plant Decem­ ber 31 because it could no longer meet interest payments on o debt of some S m illion dollars. In clos­ing, the 96-year-old company had to discharge 2,300 workers. What Workers Did Mr. Cenerazzo, having an unusual grasp of the many problems that labor has to face these days, de­termined to do something. " If a company is worth working for and drawing a livelihood from, it’s worth putting your money into to furnish the working capita] to make it a success,” he told union mem­bers in a mass meeting. Then Mr. Cenerazzo and Waltham employees undertook to see what they could do about it.Right away, 820 union members pledged themselves to subscribe $318,000 in equity financing. More than $40,000 was put up in cash. One employee with 45 years serv­ ice pledged $5,000. A stock-buying plan for employees was set up, per­ m itting purchases of stock on a time-payment basis. "We expect to raise more than $1,250,000 by this method, or about $500 for each em­ ployee,” said Mr. Cenerazzo.Common Problems This Is the story of a company up against trouble. It is also a ■ story of employee integrity, courage, and determination. I hope these work­ers succeed in saving their com­ pany. In this story, the theme of la­bor-management relations has in­ deed taken a new twist. The work­ers of W altham have understood the desperate need of industry for capi­ tal. “Twice the working capital is needed now as in 1940, because of "increased costs,” Mr. Cenerazzo told workers.This milestone in industrial rela­ tions proves that labor unions can see that industry’s problems are their problems also. You may call it just good sense—seeing the other fellow’s difficulty and helping him out of it. Another name for it is the Golden Rule.

There are ap­ proximately 20 million American families with incomes no higher than that. On the basis of $2,200 a year in- eome, more than lialf the families in the U.

Riding Both Wajm The Yellow Jockot President Truman is now learn­ ing that it is much easier to make promises during a campaign than it is to carry them out after election. Of course, repeal of ths Taft. Hartley Act and restoration of the old Wagner Act is a case in point, altho it is admitted here that Mr. Truman and his left wing supports arc doing their best to wipe out every vestige of the new labor sta tnte. But a better ca.se in point is the question of taxes. The Democra. tic platform in 1948 promised low. er taxes. But the smoke of battle bad little more than died away in November until Mr, Truman was asking for a $4 billion increase in taxes to carry ont Ws Socialist spending program and at the same time to “prevent inflation ” .Here is an iacjosistency that is a real lemon. And the effort to increase taxes, in spete of campaign pledges, have died a hornin'. The inflationary spiral began to flatten out after the election and even some of the New Dealers began to admit tbat defla. tion was a greater danger than in. flation. So the appeal for new tax. es lost much of its bloom and we have heard I'ttle about it of late. So, to use the words of a promin. ent administration critic. Appar- ently the Administralion Is trying to ride a donkey with a bead or something at both ends, but travel, in opposite directions at the same time. lu other words ont of one corner of his month be promised reduced taxes and out of the other is calling for increased taxes" The new Apricnitnral proposal of Sec. Brannan is anotber case in point. During the campaign Mr. Truman loudly called lor his own election among the farmers be­ cause of his prin support program, which he said would be abandoned if the Republicans won. The Republicans didn’t win and the administration is preparing to junk the price support program. It wants to let food prices seek their own level and then pay farm, ers a fancy pr*ce for their prod nee thru use of a government subsidv — of couse, at the expense of the tax­ payers in town country alike.

But as soon as .the plates had been cleared away and they were seated before the fire, the husband’s face lost some ot its hardness. “You know, dear,” he said, breaking the long silence, " I’ve been thtoking over our argument.”“W ell!” she snapped, without look­ ing up from her sewing. “Yes, dear. I ’ve decided to agree with you after a ll,” he said, meek­ ly.“That won’t do any good,” sh« sniffed. “I ’ve changed my nrind." W ISE UMP We don't like to make aurksjafter jrour^oame. A man was passing a public- house when a figure hurtled out of the door and landed in the gutter. A sm all fellow picked him.self up and said angrily to the passer-by; “They think they can get away with that! r u throw every one of them ,out. You stay here and count.” In went the little man. A moment later a body landed in the gutter. “One,” counted the passer-by. “No, it’s me again,” said the little man. NOW HE KNOWS Sergeant: Look here, soldier, what’s the idea of the barrel? Are you a poker player? Private: No, sir, but I spent a couple of hours with some guys who are. ANY TIM E’LL DO An old man had made friends on the golf course with a yonng fellow whose enthusiasm for the game equalled his own. Together they played several most enjoy­able games, but at last it grew too dark to continue, and they left the club together.As they went out the old chap turned to his new friend: “I ’ve never had a better game,” he said. “Nor have I ! ” cried the young enthusiast. “Can you meet me tomorrow?” asked the elder. The young man did not hesi­tate. “ Certainly,” ,he said. “I was to have been married, but I can put that oft.” A northern fan who never missed a game ot basel>all was visiting in the South, and went to see a game between two local teams. It seemed to him they were starting play without an umpire, but he finally discovered the umpire sitting in the grand­stand among Uie spectators. Turning to a native, the visitor said: “ What in the world is the umpire doing hi the grand­stand?” “ Oh,” the native explained, “the spectators used to jum p on iiim for his decisions so much that he figured if the folks in the grandstand conld see every play to well, he’d go up there too and do his um piring.” Forage Seeding Bromegrass is best seeded with alfalfa by mixing the brome with the grain and seeding from the main drill box. Three to five pounds of brome is enough where the grass seed is sown shallow. Removal of the large hoses from the drill when fertilizer has been applied prior to seeding, allows the lighter grass seed to sift off to the side of the disks when drilling. It lands on top of the soil while most of the grain will stm fa ll through the shoe. Six to eight pounds of alfalfa with bromegrass or a like amotmt of June clover seeded with two to three pounds of timothy makes a good seeding where the seed is planted shallow and lightly cov­ ered by cultipacking or dragging. When Moon Is Full It does not get colder when the moon is full, as many beiieve. Records show that cold weather is just as likely to occur when the moon is new as when it is full or in any other phase. However, there is a proverb, “clear moon, frost soon,” which is true enough in the winter, because when you see the moon the sky has to be clear. It is on the clearest nights that the surface of the earth radiates away its heat most rapidly and frost, or dew in warmer weather, is most likely to occur. A layer of clouds blankets the earth and so there is less cooling of the ground at night, which prevents condensation of moisture as frost or dew. Silicone Resins The new silicone resins and their enamels are establishing records for their heat-resistant qualities. Silicones originate from ordinary sand and, in some ways, oUt-rival the miracles of the other synthetics which the chemists have developed from coal, air and water. They have definitely established them­selves in the field of electrical in­ sulation and their use in the protec­tive coatings field is just in its in ­fancy. Uncle Sam Says Poultry Suggest tions As warm weather approaches, egg quality declines as well as egg proction. Egg prices usually ad' vance. and now eggs are selling for a very fair price. The rotums being received hy eommerdal egg producers is very encouraging. Fanners should tnke every pre­ caution to conserve the quality of the eggs being produced on the farm. Heat is the greatest enemy of high ege quality. Many produC' ers have a cellar, basement^ or other suitable places on the farm whereby eggs may be kept satis' factonly. If such places do not exist, a farmer could well afford to provide an egg cellar. About all that is necessary is the place be reasonably well ventilated, free from disagreeable odors, cool, and moist. Eggs should be gathered at least twice a day and spread upon wire racks, or left in wrire egg baskets and allowed to cool overnight. If the above program is followed, much improvement will be noted in the quality of the eggs sold and the flavor of th^ eggs when they are consumed.

One of the best ways to have well developed and healthy pullets is to grow dtem on a good range Tender green feed such as Ladino clover is pala- table and highly relished bv the birds. Soybeans and field peas will usually fiim ish green feed during the hot dry months. Move the range shelter aud feed hoppers as needed to mad 3 better use of the green feed on the range. Mash and water should be a- vailable at all times while the birds are on range. The mash should be kept in outdoor or cov­ eted feed hoppers to protect it from the rain and sun, Water fountains should be shaded to help keep the water cool. When the pullets are removed from the range, they should be placed in cool laying quarters. Keep the ventilators and windows open to make the house cooler. The early pullets will not continue to gain in body weight and in­ crease ill egg production if the house is het. Check for lice and mites as warm weather is ideal for their presence. Dusting with sodium fluoride or painting the roost poles with a roost paint late in the afternoon on the birds at night, then hide in the roost poles the daytime. Control Uee and mites by a thorough -application of equal parts of used motor oil and kerosene. Remember: Club Week, at N. C. State C^lege, August 1 through 5 Farm and Home Week, at N . C.

Alfalfa Weevil Control Spraying or dusting with DDT, ' chlordane, methoxycMor or toxa- phene at concentrations recom­ mended by the manufacturers is ■ suggested by Colorado A.&M. col­ lege e x p e ^ e n t station ento­mologists as an early eontrol mea­sure for alfalfa weevil. Farmers are cautioned, however, that such chlorinated materials should not be used after the alfalfa is from two to six inches tall since tiiey tend to accumulate in the fat of anim als and in the butterfat of m ilk, and may eventually carry j their toxic% to the human consum- i ers of the anim al products.

Our County And Social Security Bv Mrs. Ruth G. Duffy. Manager. Last week you celebrated the Fourth of July. It is one land­ mark in our National history which animates and gladdens all American hearts. O n other days of the year our party affiliations may be more important but on the anniversary of the birth of our Nation we are Americans all— each of us feels that our country is greater than party. Another outstanding landmark in our history exemplifying this American spirit of cooperation in critical times is the passage of the Social Security Act in Aug., 1935, which grew out of changes that took plaee in our wav of life. O ur late President Roosevelt, in his message to Congress on June 8, 1934. described these changes as follows: “Security was attained in the earlier days through the in­ terdependence of members of fa­ milies upon each other and of the funtlies within a small commun- iiiy upon each other. The com­ plexities of great communities and of organized industry makes less real these simple means of secur­ ity. Therefore, we are compelled to employ the active interest of the Nation as a whole thru gov­ ernment in otder to encourage a greater measure of welfare and happiness and does not indicate a change in values. It is rather a return to value lost in the course of our economic development and expansion.” The Social Security Act is a foundation on which we have be­ gun to build this security against risks which very few can meet a- lone and Old-Age and Survivors Insurance does provide some mea­ sure of protection to people who work on jobs that are now cover­ ed by this program. The Social Security Administration, as requi­ red by law, makes recommendat­ ions to the Congress for improv­ ing and broadening the several provisions of the Act. The chief recommendation for the past sev- eral years has been to extend the protection to all gainfully employ­ ed persons and to increase this protection against loss of income from old age and death. Summar­ ies of these recommendations are available, upon request, at the So­ cial Security Administration, 437 Nissen Building, Winston-Salem.

It wasn’t too surprising to leam that 12-year-old Betty recently was graduated from elementary school with an average of more than 90 per cent. She looks very intelligent, I was slightly surprised to learn that she skips rope and goes roller skating once a week. And of BETTY CLARK course she is exceptional as the only child in America who has her own network show. But what makes all she does especially remarkable and courageous is the fact that charming little Betty has been total­ly blind since birth. The harpsichord which Eugene Ormandy bought in Vienna for D r. Frank Black, conductor of “Harvest of Stars,” with James Melton, couldn’t get used to New York weather. Went out of com­mission and spent a year being re­ paired. “The Adventures of Sam Spade” moves to NBC in Sep­ tember (same time, same star, Howard Duff) after being heard on CBS since September of 1946. Before that the show had put in a couple of months on ABC. Stacey Harris, radio actor, will make his screen debut in “Postal Inspector.” Harris started his act­ing career with Burt Lancaster on the Broadway stage, then turned to radio when Lancaster turned to Hollywood. WiUiam Bendix finally had to wear make-up in “The Big Steal.” On location in Mexico he picked up such a deep tan that his face had to be lighted to the shade it was in the scenes filmed earlier in Hollywood. One of the most perfect video ^ t s we’ve seen was a recent one by Boris Karloff which opened with a three-quarters close-up of him in his most terrorizing form. He was wielding a hatchet and ex­ claim ing, “Remember, you must strike straight and hard! You must strike often! And you mustn’t miss a single stroke.” . . . In the sur­prise finish, he was revealed as a scoutmaster instructing Boy Scouts on woodmanship. rr WAS ETHAN PRYO R’S laugh­ ter that first attracted Abigail to him . When Ethan laughed every one else laughed. The sound had that m irthful, appealing quality that was infectious. It was good to hear. It gave you a feeling of well­ being. This all happened in 1929, when Ethan’s retail antique business was netting liim $15,> OCO a year. It was easy in laugh then. They were a jolly couple. In 1931 Ethan’s retail antique business dropped off from one-half its top amount to one-tliird, then to one-quarter. That year passed and the next. The Pryors didn’t find it so easy to laugh. They gave up their3-Minute seven - room Fiction apartment a n d moved into a less expensive one. In January of 1934 they moved to a single room in an unfashion­able part of the city. Ethan was barely making enough to keep them from starving. Abigail hunted for a week and eventually won for herself a job. It wasn’t much of a job. She sat behind a glass window a ll after­ noon and evening selling tickets for a stock company performance. The stock company wasn’t doing so well. It looked as though it m ight fold up any day. But it paid $15 a week and would have to do until she could get something better. Inspired, a little ashamed, Ethan went job hunting him ­self. He hunted a Aveek, two weeks, without success. He began to brood, Abigail did her best to cheer him up, to get him into a happy frame of m ind. “Let’s hear the old laugh ring out, darling, A pleasant frame < 3 m ind is half the battle.” She sat on the arm of his chair, “TeU you what. Let’s celebrate. Let’s take $5 and go down to Tony’s. We can have a gay tim e for a change. >¥»HEY WENT to Tony’s. They A drank wine and ate a big din­ ner. They danced. They sat and watched the floor show. It wasn’t a bad floor show. Among other things there was a comedian. The comedian was sad. He wasn’t funny. But Abigail laughed. She laughed as though she thought he was tremendously funny. Ethan looked at her. A fond light came into his ey&. She was trying to be gay. She was doing all she could to bolster up his spirits. He could at least help. Ethan laughed. It was the old time, m irthful, appealing laughter. It rolled out and fUled the room. Others beard it. Others laughed. They couldn’t help it. They laughed with Ethan. The comedian was in­spired. After the show a m an came up and sat down at Ethan’s and Abi­gail’s table. Abigail introduced him as the owner of the stock company show where she sold tickets. His name was Jones. “Listen,” said M r. Jones. “We’ll pay yon ?5 a night to come and laugh at our show. It’s supposed to be a funny show. You can put it across.” Ethan scratched his chin. He locked at Abigail. He said: “Well, I dunno. For $40 a week I m ight consider it.”“ Sold!” said M r. Jones. Ethan looked at his wife when he got home. “You planned it!” he accused. “Sure,” said Abigail. “When you have something it should be cashed in on. You can laugh your way to riches, m y dear.” Times were getting better. Peo­ple were buying antiques. By the beginning of 1936 he was doing quite wen. That summer he en­larged his shop. "W ell,” said Abigail, happily, " I guess we laughed our way through that depression a ll right.” Ethan kissed her. Then he threw back his head and began to laugh. He laughed loud and long. “There!” he said. “ That laugh isn’t going to cost any one a cent. From now on I laugh because I want to and free of charge. Honey, I love you.” “D itto,” said Abigail.

Fa,, sale. Auction and lactation are averaged into monthly records and these, to turn, are averaged into annual records. From ..these annual figures, “herd” averages are then com­ puted, and these are computed into the only “breed” averages extant. Owners of the Ayrshire cattle are given duplicate copies of the production records compiled with the help of foolproof IBM m a­ chines. This system is of immeasur­able help to Ayrshire farmers in operating their herds and dispos­ ing of surplus cattle.But this painstaking “cows on test” project is only one of the many operations conducted by the A.B.A. staff. The birth of every Ajrrdiire calf is recorded and reg­istered. The operations of the A.B.A are helping to make Ayrshire cattle one of the most popular breeds of dairy cattle in the country. The Ayrshire is reported the highest producer of 4.0 per cent m ilk of any breed. Only Ayrshires pro- d u c e “naturally homogenized” m ilk—the fat globules are so fine and tiny that they are integrated by nature with the rest of- the mUk. Ayrshire m ilk is in great de­ mand by hospitals, and by doctor; with on-^et patients. De-Humidifier Now the home-owner can pro­tect property in his basement from mold, rust and mildew damage by moist summer air with any one of several simple and inexpensive de­ humidifiers and a low-cost chem­ical—calcium chloride. Scarce in supply during the war years, calcium chloride is now in plentiful supply. Low-cost de-hu­midifiers are available nationally through hardware and lumber deal­ ers.De-hiunidifiers designed to use the chemical have a container such as that shown here, for the flake which is exposed to air. Calcium chloride has the unique property of being able to absorb sever^ times its own weight in moisture.

Uncovered Relics Yield Story of Primitive Man LONDON. — Archaeologists thought they had caught a glimpse of the lives of B ritain’s pagan Saxon ancestors through relics dug up recently from an ancient burial ground on Farthing Down near Coulsdon,Beside the skeleton of a child of about 2, probably a boy, had been placed his well-loved toy iron spear. A child in another grave was thought to be a girl. Beneath her chin were found the colored beads she used to wear and someone, more than 13 cen­ turies ago, had placed a large dec­ orated bead in her mouth when she was laid to rest.Leg arid ankle bones of an old man were found to be bent, prob­ ably because he had squatted on nis heels in a prim itive home arhich boasted no chair.

The meet­ ing occurred shortly after young Roosevelt was sworn in as congress­ man from tlie ZOth New York district, replacing the late Sol Bloom. F. D. B. Jr., made it plain he is a Democrat and a member of Mr. Truman’s “team.” WELFARE: More for Less Signing into law a bill to reorgan­ ize the federal government. Pres­ident Truman offered a major pro­ posal. He wants a new department of welfare created with its chief officer given full cabinet rank.THE IDEA is not a completely new one. It was heard frequently during the e arly days of the Roose- veltian era, much oftener during the latter years of F. D. R ’s regime.While this proposition com­manded chief attention of the na­ tion's press, the President offered six other streamlining plans aimed at giving the taxpayers better ser­ vice for less money.These included; Transfer of the U.S. employment and unemployment compensation offices to the labor department.PLACING of the two key defense agencies — national security coun­ cil and national security and re­sources board—directly in the President’s office. Tightening up administration of the post office department, m ari­time commission and civil service commission.Transfer of the public roads administration to the commerce de­partment. The President said the plans, wliich followed closely several m ajor recommendations of the Hoover commission on government reorganization, w ill not “automati­ cally” produce efficiency and cut spending. BUT HE SAID they open the door to improvements that wiB make the government “more vigor­ous” and operate more smoothly at a lower cost “over a period of tim e.” No one expected any reduction in federal spending, and the 'Presi­ dent’s conclusions might be con­strued as a preliminary defense set­ up for continued federal outlay at the present, or an increased level, despite the Hoover commission recommendations and the Presi­dent’s own seven-point manifesto. VETERANS: Get Good News Veterans of World War II were all set for a surprise bonanza.The Veterans’ administration an­ nounced in Washington that cash refunds totaling 2.8 billion dollars w ill begin for them about next Jan­uary—that is, for all G I’s who took out national service life insurance during the war. These were esti­ mated to number some 16 m illion.Under the new payments, an­ nounced by the VA, each ex-ser­viceman or his heirs would receive an average of $175 from life insur­ance dividends. Described as a “dividend” the money is to be re­ paid from two sources: 1. An eight billion doUar surplus which developed from the fact that G .I. insurance premiums were based by law on a standard mortal­ ity (death) rate table which turned out to be higher than needed.2. Earnings from the surplus. In genreal, it was explained, every veteran who took out national service insurance and kept it in force at least three nionths w ill be eligible—^provided the policies were not issued after January 1, 1948. No refunds are to be made on pol­ icies issued after that date.MEANWHILE, government of­ ficials saw in the insurance divi­dend payments a timely “shot in the arm ” for busuiess in 1950 which White House Repairs Still a Question It appeared that all the commo­tion about repairs to the White House wasn’t quite over, although congress approved and sent to the President a money biU carrying funds for work on the White House. The money was included in a meas­ ure calling for expenditure of 671 m inion dollars for various govern­ ment obligations. THE HOUSE, which had passed the b ill earlier, accepted a one- word amendment approved by the senate. The change w'ould put it up to a special six-man commission whether a separate residence should be built for the first fam ily, in addition to the job on the White House itself. GERMANY: Partial Accord The four-week conference of the council of foreign ministers of the four m ajor powers had ended with partial accord having been reached. The western powers and Russia cleared away obstacles to an Aus­trian independence treaty and agreed to try to get along a Uttle better in Germany. THE RUSSIANS, however, were in there pitching right up to the final moments of the parley. The conference ended in a flurry of excitement as Russia sought un­ successfully to make a last minute change in the anouncement of the meeting’s results. The Reds had promised not to reimpose a blockade on Berlin In return for efforts to revive east- west trade in Germany. This was contained in a six-point statement of principle by the Big Pour to guide negotiations in Germany. The Russians were suported in their 150 m illion dollar claim on Austria for German assets, and swung an uppercut at Yugoslavia’s Marshal Tito by dropping their support of Yugoslavian claims on Austria. These were the points which cleared the way for an Aus­trian treaty which has been or­ dered for presentation by Septem­ber 1. DESPITE the improvement In east-west relations growing out of the conference, American spokes­men were not optimistic in evalua­ting results. U.S. Secretary of State Dean Acheson had no immediate comment.Work on the Austrian treaty, however, was termed a “substantial stey” forward and of no little im ­ portance because it would free Austria and push Soviet troops farther back into eastern Europe. It was felt that ground had been neither gained nor lost in Germany. should serve to stimulate sales. They recalled that the terminal- leave payoff of some two blUion dollars in. 1947 provided a sizeable such stimilus for the nation’s busi­ness. The plan to start the checks roll­ing in January brought vigorous criticism on Capitol H ill as Repre­ sentative Keating (R ., N. Y .) de­manded that congress set October 15 as the deadline. He Introduced a bill to hurry the dividend pay­ ments to that date. He declared that the government had “over­ charged” veterans on their life in­surance, and that the money should be refunded “immediately, not q year from now.” LONG SEARCH SEEN ENDED 'UNIVERSAL MAN': Johann von Goefhe From every state in the union and from many foreign lands, dis­tinguished visitors are pouring into the historic little frontier town of Aspen, Colo., to pay honor to a man bom 200 years ago. The Goethe Bicentennial Convo­cation and Music Festival (June 27-July 16) is presenting an impos­ing roster of thinkers, writers, statesmen, philosophers, educators and musicians who will seek to re­ examine and re-interpret the works and philosophy of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, the Universal Man, as it pertains to the atomic age. HEADING the impressive list of lecturers is Albert Schweitzer, of French Equitorial Africa—phil­osopher, doctor, musician, theo­logian — acknowledged throughout the civilized world as the foremost modern disciple of Goethe. The music festival, running in conjunction with the convocation, will feature compositions based on Goethe’s works, monumental music of equal stature to Goethe, and music contemporary to him and known to have been inspiration' al to him. LABOR: Bad Timing? Was the postwar buggy lide of consumer demand and increasingly higher wages really over? The Ford motor company thought so and .said sc. CONFRONTED with a list of de­mands by the united automobile workers union, the company made a significant counter-proposal.Instead of pay raises and pension, health and welfare plans as drafted by the union, the company pro­posed to peg wages where they are for another 18 months. Such action, said the company, would “set a stabilization pattern tor the entire (national) economy at this critical tim e.” THE UNION, among other things, has demanded that wages be pegged to the cost of living. Pointing out that the cost of living is down and that the market for cars m ight drop up to 32 per cent after this year, the company de­clared flatly that it would reject any change in the work contract which would mean higher labor costs—whether in the form of wage increases or pension or welfare funds. THUS the issue was hastening to a showdown. Could industry stand firm against another round of wage increases, or would labor with its organized power so stifle industry that capitulation would be inevi< table? Indicted Chlorophyll in Toothpaste Fights Decay A n e w toothpaste containing chlorophyll may be the answer to the long-time search for a preven­ tive for tooth decay. Use of chlor­ophyll in the new product was an­nounced by Dr. Gustav W. Rapp, professor and research biochemist of Loyola university’s dental school, and his assistant, B. F. Gurney. The new paste acts to do away •>Hth all of the conditions generially thought by dental authorities to be causes of dental decay, according to Dr. Rapp and Mr. Gurney, and owes its unusual powers to .the use of the water-soluble derivaties of chlorophyi), which is the magic green substance that gives grass and all other green plants their color. Long known as essential to all life, cWorophyll previously has been used with excellent results. T beie was much of mystery and charge and counter-charge in the events out of which grew the federal indictment of Pres­ton Tucker (above). Tucker and five others were indicted by the governm ent on charges of m ail fraud, conspiracy in viola­tions of the securities a:nd ex­ change act. Tucker has retali­ated m th charges that the secu­ rities and exchange commis­sion has made it impossible to continue production of the Tucker car, which was to be powered with a motor in the rear. RED HUNT: Harvard Cool Harvard, the nation’s oldest uni­versity, was having nothing to do with any Communist-hunting. There was a reason, officials said. They felt that to do so might be a danger to the university’s free­ dom and to its academic integrity. AND, Harvard held, American freedom is the school’s “true glory,” as it once told a m an who tried to “buy” it for 10 m illion dol­lars. The Harvard policy statement in connection w itii Commimist-himt- ing activities was put this way: “There w ill be no harassment of professors for engaging in open and legal meetings. There w ill be no apparatus of inquiry and ‘closer watch.’ “The harm done by the effort necessary to discaver even a single clandestine party (Commimist) member would outweigh any pos­sible benefit.” PROMISES: Made for Housing House Republicans indicated they were tired of the federal housing wrangle. So, they promised, they’d introduce a housing bill to substi tute for the administration’s pro­gram. It was said to Include a plan for privately-owned homes and some low-rent property.

We get the idea that it is from the fact that when we are little, our mothers appear to give us more affection when we are sick or unhappy, but to try to win someone’s love after you have grown up by making him sorry for you is a serious mis­take. If he feels you’re blaming him , he’U hate you for it, and if he does not, you’ll ultim ately bore him . The English psychiatrist. Dr. Laura Hutton, truly says that “In the long run most of us are at­tracted by happiness in others, not by unhappiness”—or “hard luck.” Is being an “old m aid a disgrace? Answer: Certainly not, though the notion seems to “die hard.” It’s each person’s business to ad­just to life on a basis that accepts his or her lim itations, and a girl who has been so conditioned that she is afraid of marriage or cannot accept the role of wife and mother should no more be blamed for staying single than a cripple should be blamed because, he “won’t walk.” There is no worse marriage than the sort in which a girl has forced herself to take a husband she does not love “so as not to be an old m aid.” Single life is infi« nitely better. Can dull parents have bright children? Answer: As a rule they have quite normal children, and what level of intelligence these children attain depends upon the conditions under which they are brought up. In the Journal of Genetic Psychology, Dr. Harold M. Skeels and Miss Irene Harms report the continuing sue- pess of the “Iowa Experiment,” in which children with “inferior so­ cial histories” were given for adoption to superior foster| parents. Though in many cases one or both of the cliildren’s parents were rated as “morons,” the children have average intelligence or better.

KEEPING HEALTHY Premili Dsiths from Appedidtis By Dr. James SOME YEARS AGO the physi­ cians and surgeons of Phila­delphia made a determined effort to cut down the death rate in ap­ pendicitis. W ithin one year they re­duced it to less than half of what it had been. How was the death rate reduced by more than one-half in this short time?These physicians had learned from their own experiences three definite truths. First, that the soon­ er the operation was performed the better; second, that no food should be given; and third, that no pain- killing drug should be used until the cause of the pain was found not to be appendicitis, as this drug masked or hid the symptoms. When a pain occurs in the abdo­ men, even as high up as the stom­ach,. many think that a dose of cas­ tor oil or of Epsom salts is the best treatment, as it clears away poi­ sons or wastes. This would be good treatment in most cases but for the fact that appendicitis is such a com­mon cause of pain in the abdomen. W. Barton A sluggish liver and gall bladder cause gas, and gas pressure causes pain. Constipation is another com­mon cause of pain in the abdomen.The reason a cathartic, like cas­ tor oil or Epsom salts, is danger­ ous, should appendicitis be caus­ing the pain, is because a cathar­ tic stimulates so much movement in the intestine and this extra amount of movement may cause the appendix to rupture. A ruptiu:ed appendix causes peritonitis, usually fatal.When a pain occurs in the lower right side of the abdomen (which may have started higher up in the stomach a few hours before) and remains in the appendix region for an hour without shifting elsewhere, call a physician at once.In previous days it was not im- usual for patients to be transported to a large city for an operation, which meant delay and a greater chance of rupturing the appendix. Today, the “nearest” hospital has surgeons capable of removing the appendix in minutes, When the ankle or any other joint Is sprained (not just strained), the injured part should be placed in hot water and kept hot for an hour at a tim e until swelling disappears. Tlva joint then should be bandaged and placed on a chair it the patient is sitting or on a pillow if lying down. After a few days’ rest, the joint is gently moved (without weight on it), and massaged to­ ward the heart Some years ago I tried to count up the number of causes of head­ache. When it ran over 100, I stopped. Some researchers report over 200 causes. Myalgia in the bacfe of the neck and in the chest muscles (some­times mistaken for pleurisy) can be caused by an infection in the nose and throat, with a resultant rise in temperature and pulse rat#.

Tlie turn is so unhappy that naval reserve cap­ tain .Congressman Jim m ie Van Zandt, the Pennsylvania Republi­ can who started a ll the B-36 furor, would just as soon forget about it. For Q iairm an Carl Vinson of the armed services committee is not merely probing the B-36. He is also investigating the source of the smear stories against secretary of defense Johnson and secretary of air Symington. In other words, he is probing the delicate but highly im portant question of who wrote Congressman Van Zandt’s vitriolic speeches. In this connection it may be significant that the navy has suddenly transferred its press relations and propaganda ex­pert, Rear Adm. Edward Ewen, to Guam. Adm iral Ewen had served only one year of a three- year tonr of duty, but suddenly he was whisked off to a distant island, far from the strong arm of a congressional subpoena. Tlie Vinson committee also is ex­pected to apply the microscope to the most powerful backstage lobby­ing organization ever to buttonhole congressmen for a government bu­reau—tlie Navy League, Frank Hecht, president of the Navy League, now has become so vitu­perative in comparing Secretary Johnson to European dictators, that good-natured Bob Fleming, presi­ dent of Washington’s Riggs National Bank, is a ll set to resign as treasurer of the Navy League. As treasurer of the G.O.P. congres­ sional committee last year, Flem­ing Jielped raise around a m illion dollars for Dewey, and has no love for the administration. But he hasn’t been able to stomach the Navy League diatribes. The Navy League has now taken over the adm iral’s crusade against the b ill before congress tightening unification. W hat the admirals say privately, the Navy League now says for them publicly. History Repeats Harry Truman isn’t the first Pres­ ident to have trouble with the Navy League. Herbert Hoover also had his headaches. Just 17 years ago he got into such a mudslinging duel- with the Navy League that the latter ended up charging the Pres­ ident of the United States with “abysmal ignorance.” Attempting to practice econ­omy, Hoover bad ordered the adm irals to cut their 1933 budget. Instead the admirals upped it by 40 m illion dollars and Hoover sent ti;« budget back with a demand that it be reduced 20 m illions under 1932. Wliereupon the Navy League, acting as a megaphone for the ad­m irals, hurled the “ abysmal ignor­ance” charge at Hoover just as the same Na\’y League is now calling Secretary Jolmson a dictator. Most folks have forgotten the origin of the Navy League—which shouldn’t be forgotten. For its founders read like a meeting of m etallurgical magnates. They include: Charles M. Schwab, Bethlehem Steel Corporation; J. Pierpont Morgan, United States Steel Corporation and owner of a controlling interest in the Carnegie Steel Company; Col. R . M . Thomp­ son, International Nickel Company; B. P. Tracy, attorney for the Car­negie Steel and Harvey Steel com­ panies, and director of the Tennes­see Coal and Iron Company; George Westinghouse, Westing- house Electric Company; Clement A. Griscom, director. Cramp Ship and Engine Company, the Electric Boat Company and the United States Steel Corporation; S. S. Palmer, director, Lackawanna Steel Company; eighteen members of the Midvale Steel Company. Steel Wants Eig Navy There is a good reason why these gentlemen and their successors should be the most powerful, un­scrupulous, and consistently irre­pressible propagandizers for a big navy. It pays. The bigger the navy, the more steel plates, the more generators, the more copper and nickel these gentlemen sell to Uncle Sam. Membe»s of the Navy League have been active and brazenly ad­ m itted their activity in sabotaging American diplomats at interna­tional conference. It was Charley Schwab of Bethle­hem steel and associates who paid §25,000 to “Big Bass Drum ” Shearer to frustrate the Geneva naval con­ ference. The steel and shipbuilding companies just didn’t want naval lim itation to succeed. Dividends, for them, came ahead of their country’s efforts for <peace. At Geneva, Shearer would have got nowhere if he had not had the all-too-eager cooperation of several U. S. naval officers sent to Geneva to work for naval lim itation. In­stead, they did the opposite and plumped for naval exj»nsiori. REUNION . . .

Lesson for July 17,1949 Dr. Foreman W H Y church music? H yim books " • are expensive, learning new hjrmns is a bother, choirs are a lot of trouble. Most preachers need more tim e for their sermons; why not cut out the music and let them have fifteen m in­ utes extra? No sir; it won’t do. Say what you please, th e average church-goer knows better than that. He may never have thought it out and he m ight not have heard of the word “hymnology,” but M r. Average Churchman likes music in the church, even if he never opens ills mouth himself. Liturgy SINGING in church was not in­ vented yesterday. In the Psalms, as In our own hymnals, some of the poems were originally written and intended for use in public worship. The word “liturgy” simply means the order of manner of service, and all churches have liturgies whether they give them that name or not. Out fam iliar “Holy, Holy, Holy,” was written for use in an e.irly morning service; “ Bread of the world” was writ­ ten as a Communion hymn; “ Break Thou the Bread of Life” while often used at Communion was not so intended, as you can tell by reading it carefully; it was meant for use just before the reading of the Scripture. “Day is Dying in the West” is best used in an out-door service, “Ivory Palaces” was written one Sunday afternoon in North Caro­lina for use in an evangelistic meet­ ing that night. It m ight interest you to leaf through your own hjrm- nal and see how many hymns were written purposely for church use. Songs of the Temple •PH REE liturgical Psalms are our lesson selection. Use your Imagination when you read them. As you read Psalm 24, think of a great procession marching through the streets of Jerusalem on a holy day and approach^g tlie tall temple shining on the city’s highest hlU. Singing as they clim b, perhaps one part of the congrega­ tion sings the question; “Who shall ascend into the hill of the Lord? Who shall stand in his holy place?” Perhaps another group of voices takes up the answer: “He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart . . .” As the great gates swing open, the chant rises: “Lift up your heads, O ye gates!” for the King of Kings, th’e Lord of Lords, is marching. Ti:« little kings (in Israel and over the -world) have come and gone; only the Lord of Hosts is the King of Glory. Singing the glory of God brings it before the mind far better than read­ing about it in a book! Then the 84th Psalm is taken from what they called the “Chief Musician’s Collection,” evidently a part of what we now would caU the choir library. It is the song of a m an who loves the church and loves the people whom he finds there. Psalm 95:l-7b is also obvi­ ously a song for public worship, and still Is sung every morning in churches around the world. l^he Best is Not Too Good TF in ancient times when God’s ^ people were learning to sing, the noblest poems of inspired men were set to the best music avail­ able and used for the honor of God and the help of m an, then surely Christians ought to do no less. If you had a friend coming to see yon, one whom yon re­ spect and wish to honor, yon certainly would not set the table %vith all the chipped-np old kitchen china and yon wouldn't put wilted flowers on the table and you certainly wouldn’t keep the radio tuned to the tin-pan- niest trash you could find on the dial. No, If you have anything for him you want it fo be of the very best. Why not so' with God? The house of God is no place for cheap, bad music, jingly meaningless rhymes instead of noble hymns and psalms, tiresome grind-organ tunes or jaz­zy swing stuff instead of music that has real power and beauty. If non­sense is bad in a sermon, it is worse ia a prayer and worst of all in a hymn. If mere noise is bad in a sermon, it is worse in a prayer and unbearably bad in a hymn. l» the In >1 Religious EducationInternational Coi:oun^ ^otestenf denoininaUons?'' le a s e d by iVNU Features) Fatigue Causes Depression Continued depression without apparent reason often Is due to fatigue.

BEN SON pttSiicKt-MniiKj MUft StaK), Is Bigness Bad? : Many critics of our American sys­ tem use big business as a special target for their attacks. According to ttieir charges, big business throt­tles competition, creates monopo­ lies, m altreats labor, and kills small enterprises. Their attitude toward big business represents more than a natural dislike for bigness in busi­ness. It also shows their shrewdness in using the propaganda weapon to destroy our system. If they should succeed in getting public opinion on their side, it socn would be reflected in legislation which could well destroy this seg­ ment of our economy, and eventually turn our entire economy into state socialism."Grown Dp” Business Big business is nothing but sm all business grown up. They grew up because the public allowed them to do so. No business can become big business without public approval. Public approval cannot be bought. It is earned through the hard-work process of competing against scores of other companies and giving John Q. Public a better washing machine, dress, or automobile for his money. As demand for a product grows, fa­cilities must be increased to meet that demand. A business grows as the public, with its buying, dictates. Good Dividends As business grows, it becomes more efficient and makes possible real savings to the public. Our $1,580 mass produced automobile would cost $50,000 if built with the tools of 1900. Mass purchasing, production and distribution result in economies impossible to sm all business. Larger investment provides also the neces­ sary extensive research demanded by keen competition. This huge investment pays divi­ dends to workers, too. Labor-saving tools m ultiply the productive ca­ pacity of the worker and ease the load from his back. This greater production allows him higher pay and shorter hours and puts him in a class far above workmen of any oth­ er nation.Bad for Whom? Sm all business has fared well in this progress story. You see, big business has created thousands of enterprises that owe their existence to its production. Without the huge output provided by the automotive industry, the average city would be without its many accessory stores, radiator shops, repair shops, filling stations, parking lots, and garages. Far from being exterminated, small business continues to develop.Big business has made a striking contribution to our nation’s prosper­ity and progress. As long as it is op­ erated by human beings, there w ill be occasions for justifiable criticism.

Fiircbasing Terry Towels Remember, when buying terry towels—or turkish towels as they are often called—that they have two important jobs to do for you. They must absorb moisture, and they must be strong enough to with­ stand all the tugging and pullings while being used, and rubbing and twisting in laundering. So look for a firm , close, underweave—that’.s the weave imder the surface loop? —to give you wearabih'ty. And lool' for close, thick loops on the .surfacc of the towel for quick drying and to do a good absorbency job. Hold the towel up to the light befon buying to determine the cIosene.v? of the weave. A close weave, which w ill wear the best, will allow very little light through the towel. Uncle Sam Says * ^ be a 49B . - J The modem 49’er doesn’l have i.- traTcI overland to strike it rich.

ABC Store Election (Statesville Daily) There is only one th ing that can be said in favor of ABC stores, w liich if profits from the liquor trafiSc are retained by local and Stale governments insteads of en riching bootleggers But when ii is considered that establishing le- galizad liquor stores invariably brings increased alcoholic consum p. tion and public drifnkenness, most people w ill agree govern 1. ent is belter off w ithout these profits.

Iradell w ill remain in the dry colum u by a substantial m ajority. . . . O f course, voting against Iredell ABC store won’t reduce liquor consum ption in the county.

The solution lies in education. It ts a problem for the schools, the churcHes and the parents of young people. D in the evils of alcoholiem into iheir ears w ithout end. To Vote In Quotas Saturday, Ju ly 23, has been de» 3ignated by Secretary of A gricul­ ture, Charles F. Brannan as the date for holding a flue-cured to­ bacco m arketing quota referendum, according to R . R . Bennet, exten Sion tobacco sped t list at State College. Tobacco growert in the six flue, cured tobacco states w ill vote on whether they approve m arketing quotas for 1950; 1951: snd *932: tor 1950 only, or are opposed to quotas. The A gricultural A djustm ent Act of 1938 as amended requires the proclam ation of a m arketing quota whenever it is found that the total supply o f flue.cured to. bacao as nf the beginning of the m arketing year exceeds the reserve supply levels as defined in the act. The 1950 qnota w ill be proclained on or about Ju ly t of this year. Whenever a quota is proclaimed, a referendum must be held to de. termlne whether growers are in favor of or opposed to the quota Quotas are in effect only when ap- proved by two-thirds of the growers voting in the referendum. Except for 1939, when they were disap­ proved b y 'growers, m arketing quotas have been in effect on flue- cured tobacco every year since thev the etiactment of the A grieultural A djustm ent A ct of 1938. Long Time No See ; K HOUSE agent had a farm on his books which was sup- .posed to be haunted, and to prove jrumor wrong he decided to engage a man to stay there for one night. The following day he was up early and went round to see how the man had fared. But the man was not to I be foimd. On the lawn he discovered ■the remains of a window, sash and shutters completely wreclced, but of the watchman there was no sign. Four days later the house agent came across him tramping along a country lane three miles away.“Hallo, George!” he cried, “Where have you been all this tim e?”The man wiped the perspiration from his brow. “Boss,” he replied “I ’ve been coming back.” GETTING EVEN A school teacher was stopped by the police for driving through a red light and was immediately brought before the judge, “Sooo,” said the judge, “you’re a school teacher. That’s fine. Ma­ dame, your presence here fulfills a long-standing desire. For years I ’ve hoped to have a school teacher standing there. “Now,” he thun­ dered, “sit down at the table and write, ‘I went through a red light’ 800 times.” HER MISTAKE Cstter Submarines Promots Safety and Health of Crew In the evolution of the modem submarine, medicine has come to rank with engineering in the de­ velopment of efficient underwater craft and in promoting the safety and health of the crew. Captain Thomas L. W ilimon of the medical corps of the U. S. navy told mem­ bers of The American Society of Mechanical Engineers. He said that the medical man, who is the “human engineer” of the submarine, has solved many of the problems of the past, which are now augmented by improved tactics, equipment and construc­ tion, enabling deeper submergence, greater submerged speeds, and more prolonged effectiveness of the weapon. He traced the history of the submarine from 1624 in the tim e of James I of England, when a Hollander, Cornelius von Drebbel, constructed a wooden shell covered with goat skins, powered by 12 oarsmen, which successfully made a submergence to 15 feet with the august personage of the king aboard. “Many engineering developments have been largely the result of sub­ marine requirements,” said Cap­tain W ilimon. The lead acid stor­ age battery received great impetus as did the diesel engine which was developed tor safety and to enable burning of a less highly refined and cheaper grade of fuel. The atmosphere of the submarine has always required study and con­trol, not only as regards oxygen content, but also for noxious gasses and fumes, including hydrogen from the storage batteries, chlorine generated by salt water gaining access to the sulfuric acid of the storage batteries, and carbon di­oxide content of the atmosphere in­ herent to long submergence. Co­incident with long submergence or even surface operation, in tropical waters, temperature and humidity control within the submarine were found to be mandatory. lust How to Go About Oiling Sewing MaeliSns There is no regular rule to fol­ low as to how often a sewing ma­chine should be oiled. When there is a collection of lin t and old oil it should be removed and a fresh oiling made. After about eight hours of running the machinery «« Tk- • n needs just oiling. To clean a ma- 50, U ixie 17, chine you need one cup of kerosene or coal oil; a rag; a brush or chicken feather; a pie tin; a screw driver or nail fUe. Use the kind of machine oil tljat is recommended by the company that made the m a­chine. Before you start cleaning the m a­chine, you should remove the needle, bobbin, presser foot and face plates. Then loosen the belt. Place the pie tin under the needle bar and pour about % cup of kero ­sene oil in it. Take your brush filled with kerosene and give the machine head c good ‘washing’.The opening on the back is an im ­portant place to clean. T ilt the head back and clean the underside. Be careful not to get kerosene on the belt. O il and kerosene are not good for electric wires or leather belts. Now turn the wheel of the ma­chine. Oil every part that seems to rub some other part.

Tests Helping Da­ vie Com Growers How Pete Carter's hybrid com tunis out this year will determine to a large extent comgroviring re­ commendations for Davie Coun­ ty in 1950. Mr. Carter and two other farm- ers of the county are cenducting com variety demonstrations this year, usiug a total of 1 1 varieties. Yields from the individual rows will be checked carefully to de- teemine which varieties are best suited to Davie conditions. -Here’s the way County Agent F. E. PeebLs explained the pur­ pose of these demonstrations: “Variety demonstration^ with com are carried out eaeh year at bmnch experiment stations over the state, but findings at Rocky M ount or Raleigh or some other station may not be applied with complete accuracy to Davie Coun­ ty conditions. “To get a somewhat more rep­ resentative picture, we tests varie­ ties right here in the county. In these farmer demonstrations, we try to create as ideal conditions as possible insofar as planting, culti­ vation, and fertilization are con­ cerned. Each variety is treated a- like. “A t the end of the growing sea­ son we try to sum up the results and then make recommendations for the next year. ■Mr. Carter whose farm is on Route 1, Advance, planted 11 va­ rieties May 12 on land which had besn in red elover last year. He used 3 i foot rows and spaced the seed 14 inches in the drill. In all he used 600 pounds of 4'10>6 to the acre. Varieties used in the demonstra­tion this year are: NC 26, N C 1032, Tehn. 10, S 211. S 315: V 125, V N C 27 (from two sources) and an open-pollinated variety. The two other farmers conduct­ing variety demonstrations in Davie are Charles Craven, Route 4, Mocksville; and Vivan Speaks. Route 1, Advance. Results from the three demon­strations will be averaged at har­ vest time.

This past week 1 was impressed with two things in particular. One of them was that many do not know that this Old-Age and Sur­ vivors Insurance program is actu­ ally what its name savs —O ld Age Insurance, and Death Insurance. The other was that many do not know that an application has to be filed before payments can be made. The old age part is pretty well understood. So important is the death insur­ ance payment to the families of you workers, that 1 want to repeat what I have written many times before in this column. Children under 18 of a worker who dies insured under this program, are eligible to receive payments each month until they are 18. Widows o f insured deceased workers are eligible to receive payments each month regardless of how old they are, if the widows have children are eligible to receive these pay­ ments in their care. A widow 65 years old or over is eligible to re­ ceive payments for life if her hus band was insured at the time of his death, whether or not there are any children under 18. We were really kept busy this past week. We received 26 new claims for benefits. O f these 26 claims 14 were filed by workers 65 or over and their wives who were 65 or over. The other 12 were fil­ ed by relatives of workers who have died. In looking over these claims I found that no one lost any monthly checks in the 14 claims that were filed by living wage earners and their wives.

When James Mason bougfet the old Buster Keaton home in Beverly Hills he found there was no way to change the light globes beneath the swimming pool except from underneath.

I knew the old man would spring a surprise like this.” Hemstitch, Rudolph, advertising agent and G.O.P. leader: “Would you mind repeating that question.

There’s no justice. Just when a Republican gets to feeling confi­dent somebody slips him a Mickey Finn.” Raviola, Antonio F., lifelong Republican: “The Democrats have all the luck. Why do not Republi­can Presidents have sons who look like their fathers?” (Would that be good?—Ed note.)

Wilkinson Corner An d y had sensitive eyes and delicate hands but Leonie, bom and bred a westerner of pioneer stock, was human. She loved him . It wasn’t until after they were m ar­ried that she discove rt he was a physical coward. She fotmd out the night of Serena Boone’s engagement party. Tony Swift was there. As usual he was drunk. He was a handsome devil, this Tony, ta ll and bronzed and reckless. He had been Leonie’s childhood sweet- heart. Folks 3-M inute said she would Fiction have married him if it weren’t for his drinking. The first thing Tony saw when he came through the door was Le­onie and Andy dancing together. A scowl crossed his face. Then he laughed. When they whirled past him he stepped up and whacked Andy on the back. “Tony’s cut,” he grinned. “Make way for a m an.” Leonie flushed. Andy hesitated, looked at Tony, then gave way smil­ing. “Sure thing,” he said. “Your dance, Tony.” As soon as she could,, without ap­ pearing too obvious, she asked Andy to take her home. There she accused:“Why did you let him insult you? Oh, the shame of it !”Andy was startled and bewil­ dered. “Let who insult me, honey.” “Who?” Se stared at him . “Tony Swift, of course! I was never so humiliated in my life.” “Tony? Oh, yon mean be­ cause of what b.e said? Shucks, honey, Tony didn’t mean any­thing. He was drunk.” The appalling truth flashed across Leonie’s brain in that mo­ ment. Andy was. a coward! He’d been afraid of Tony, which was why he evaded the issue! With a little whimpering cry she turned and ran sobbing from the room. A week later, on Saturday night, Andy stopped by at Seth Lancey’s store to see Seth on a m atter of business. A couple of boys from his mine were there, drinking at the bar. Minutes later, talking with Seth, he heard a rumpus out front. Investigating he discovered that two boys were engaged in a brawl with three men from the Bar V cattle ranch. Andy stood by and watched a while. Others joined in. It began to look as though the place would be wrecked. Andy got out of there. ■ ■ . Leonie heard about it the next day. That settled things for her. B NDY was bewildered and un- “ happy. The next day he found himself brooding Over the situation. By raid-aftemoon he could stand it no longer.' Leaving Noah Tait in charge of operations, he drove home. As he strode up the walk he heard a cry. He burst open the door and found Tony Swift trying to kiss his wife. Tony wasn’t drimk. He was babbling something about Leonie really loving him . Tony whirled at the sound Andy made. His lip curled. “Oho! The sissy from Bos---” . Andy strode across the floor. His face was black. “I gness,” he said bitterly; "your dumb, alter all. Yon need teaching.” lie stmck out. Tony tried to dodge, but Andy’s fist clipped him on the chin so hard that he went down. "D am n you!” He lunged, but Andy wasn’t where he expected. Andy’s fist flashed out again, and again Tony went down. Andy jerked him to his feet and hit him again. He hit him a third tim e and a fourth. Blood covered Tony’s face. Tony whimpered for mercy. Andy dragged him to the door and threw him out. “Andyl” Leonie fled into his arms. “Oh, m y darling, you were wonderful! Oh, precious, forgive me for what I said. Andy, wlqr didn’t you do that before—that night at the dance?” Andy frowned. “Why, shucks, honey, I don’t like to fight. Don’t you see? He was drunk then. There was no need.” Leonie laid her head on his shoul­der. " I see, darling. Of course I see.” But she didn’t. [KSMH1 PVSIE LAST WEEK'S ANSWER ^ ACROSS 1. Title of ruler (Persia)5. Bang, as a door 9.

D ., ivas a rip-snorting cattle town at the end of the old Chisholm tra il its residents have been damning the “soap holes” that plagued the area. Fast-riding cowboys often took a nasty tumble in this super-slip­ pery mud and cattle were forever getting bogged down in them. But now, like a m an discovering his hives are really a blessing. Belle Fourche has found its soap holes are one of its biggest assets. Every one of them is filled with a magic m ud called bentonite. It’s an odorless, tasteless, soapy niud with a thousand uses and scientists are thinking up new ones every day. Most of us already are using it a half dozen times a day, but al­ most nobody has heard of it. Men use it in shoe polish and hand cleaners. Women use it in face Bentonite is the most absorb­ent m aterial found in nature. When moistened it swells to several times its norm al size. Ib is quality makes it useful in waterproofing housing fonnda- tioms and many other industrial powder, lotions, beauty cream.Bentonite also is found in many types of paint, plaster and cleaning agents. It’s handy for filling holes in giant dams and for casting moulds for molten m etal. Forced down thousands of feet into the earth this m agic m ud lubricates the drills in oil wells and sends tbe debris up to the drillers. Its new uses and increasing popu­ larity for its older uses a ll add up to a boom such as Belle Fourche hasn’t seen smce the gold rush.Jn the past in' years the popula­tion has practically doubled and bentonite now pours $600,000 a year into the town in the form of additional purchasing power. Fifteen years ago Belle Fourche shipped out three carloads of bentonite. Last year its production was 6,187 carloads and this year they expect carloading to go con- siderab^ higher. Scientists say that bentonite, a strange mixture made up m o st^ ot dust from prehistoric volcanoes, is found almost nowhere in the world except in the Black H ills of Wyo­m ing and South Dakota.It is the most absorbent m aterial nature ever has devised, they say, and a half dozen teaspoonsfid w ill soak up a glass of water.

U.S. KNOW-HOW:Sbore for WorldBack in January, President Harry Truman delivered in his message to congress, a miiltiple- point program. In that program was mentioned “point tour” — one of the proposals he made and one which raised some eyebrows and set off no end of speculation on “when and how.”“POINT FOUR” was a proposal to share United States "know-how” in varied fields with other friendly nations of the world. In that pro­posal, the President asked con­gress to go along with a plan to let such nations in on how the U.S. does things economically, me­chanically, industrially.After speculation died down there was nothing more said about “point four” until recently. Then, Presi­dent Truman told congress exactly what he wanted. First, he asked for 45 m illion dollars to help the backward countries of tihe world through U.S. aid.CALLING that a first step, he listed some other factors also as “preliminaries.” These included:Technical assistance to be pro­vided through the United Nations or directly by the United States.Private investment to turn unde­veloped areas into producing for the world economy.Authority delegated by the con­gress to the President to give him power to administer the program and authority to delegate it to the secretary of state and to other government officers as he deems appropriate.“We are here embarking on a venture that extends far into the future," he told congress. He added that “grinding poverty and the lack of opportunity for many m il­lions of people in . . . certain re­gions . . . constitute the greatest challenge of the world today.” A-BOMB USB:Limits Asked How would idealism fare against expediency in the matter of atomic bomb use in a war crisis?That was a question with which congress was being asked to deal.Senator Flanders (R., Vt.) asked congress to declare the atomic bomb as a weapon of defense only for the free nations—not to be used unless an aggressor hurls it first.TO RISK a masteipiece of un­derstatement, that could be a most dangerous policy as even a child could see. Give an aggressor first shot at us with the bomb before we retaliate? Some critics of such a plan might reasonably demand:How silly can you get?An enemy equipped with enough bombs, and permitted first drop, could put this nation, or any nation, in such a fix that there’d be no use and no opportunity to retaliate with the bomb.From here it looks as though Senator Flanders may have nothing but his trouble for his work.FLANDERS explained his plan as one which he believed might speed the United Nations’ efforts to write an agreement on world-wide control of atomic energy.Asked whether his plan might not arouse criticism that this coun­try is denying itself its foremost weapon, the senator replied, “I don’t think we should sell our im­mortal souls to the devil.”But in the American concept, stemming from 1776, to sell one’s freedom to an enemy through non­use of the bomb might be tanta­mount to the situation which the senator finds distasteful. ECONOMY:Warning SoundedPresident Truman’s administra­tion was coming in for some criti­cism as a result of the current bi­partisan economy drive in con­gress. Senator Aitken (R., Vt.) warned that if the drive succeeds, it w ill put a powerful political wea­pon in President Truman’s hands —and in an election year, at that.Aitken argued that it would be tantamount to handing the Presi­dent a two billion dollar campaign fund for the congressional elec­tions next year.FIFTY-SIX senators — 21 Demo­crats and 35 Republicans — have signed a petition to take up a res­olution which would force Truman to balance the budget by cutting federal operating appropriations from five to 10 per cent in the fis­cal year. DANGCfi OVERLOOKEO Plaster of Paris Held Infection Source Sarah Churcbill, left, daugh­ter of England’s Winston Churchill, had the best possible coaching for her stage role in “The Philadelphia Story.” Her tutor, at right, was Tallulah Bankhead, famed stage and screen actress. TRADE PACT:Britons Jump GunIn matters affecting its own wel­fare, Great Britain never has taken any but the realistic view, hence the signing of a five-year trade pact with Argentina .— a pact to which the United States has vigor­ously objected.THE PACT, calling for ex­changes totalmg 500 m illion dollars' the first year, and looking to at least an equal volume the other years, commits the two nations to virtual barter.The U.S. objected to the pact on the grounds that it violates the spirit of free competitive interna­tional trade.Argentine President Juan Peron rapped outside criticism in a speech at ceremonies marking the end of negotiations which lasted more than five months.“It is not possible,” he said, “to hide the evil intentions and evil designs behind this criticism. This type of economic warfare is a sign of incapacity.”OPEN criticism of British action came from Senator Wherry (R., Neb.) who accused Britain of 'selfishly promoting her own eco­nomic interests at the expense of the U.S. and European countries.” He contended that the pact “de­feats the very purpose of recovery and free exchange of goods in the world.”Paul G. Hoffman, U.S. economic cooperation administrator, also was concerned. He said he was strongly opposed to this type of 'bilateral agreement” and that he woxild use every influence to dis­courage such two-way pacts. ■ LANDLORDS:'Freeze' Is OutLandlords would breathe with some relief as they read the latest announcement by federal housing expediter Tighe Woods.Woods said “the freeze principle of rent control is now a thing of the past.”FOUR new rules easing rent con­trols would Indicate that was the situation, but a closer look might raise some doubts.First, owners putting more value into their property would be in line to collect increased rents. Then, local rent officials would have more leeway in adjusting rent ceil­ings in harmony with local real estate principles. Third would be the elimination of the “freeze” principle, and, fourth, making an “opinion” as to probable rent hike lim its available to landlords be­fore they actually repair or im­prove their property.BUT—and there were three of these—the tenants still have pro­tection. The proposed repairs or improvements can only be made with the tenant’s permission, how­ever, with these conditions the tenant may be overruled:1. If the improvement is needed to maintain the property.2. Where the improvements are consistent with local “practices and customs” or property manage­ment.3. If the change is such as would increase the rental value in a nor­mal market where free bargaining prevailed.The rules were dispatched to all rent offices. Woods said. BONUS BILL:Idea W on't DieTennessee’s Representative Ran* kin was nothing if not persistent. The Democratic legislator again was planning a measure to obtainbonus for U.S. war veterans.THE chairman of the house vet­erans committee disclosed that he was grooming a m ulti-billion dollar bonus biU as a follow-up to veter­ans’ pension legislation. He indi­cated he might seek action at this session.Whether he knew it or not, he wa^ in for some rough sledding, for even as he discussed the proposed measure, some members of his committee voiced the belief there would be no more major veterans’ benefit bills reported out of com­mittee at this session.COMMENTING on his measure, Rankin said he regarded adjusted compensation — or bonus — as a possible solution to the whole ques­tion of veterans’ benefits.He has managed to bottle up measures to extend the “52-20” GI jobless pay beyond the July 25 expiration date, terming unem­ployment payments “rocking chair money.”The bonus bill, Rankin argued, “ wouid deduct from the compensa­tion all this sit-down money, on- the-job-training and college bene­fits.” AIRLIFT:An AnniversaryThe winged boxcar flew into Ber­lin ’s Templehof airdrome. It landed five tons of steel wool and textiles on the concrete airstrip at exactly 12 o’clock.THE LANDING was accom­plished in magnificent solitude.However, it was an event of a sort that seldom goes unnoticed.For that landing rounded out one solid year of “Operation A irlift” the hottest weapon in the cold war.Despite that, it was probably one of the most unattended birthdays in history. The American twin-en- gine C-82, nicknamed “the flying boxcar,” trundled to a loading sta­tion like any other plane.THE FLIGHT, made by Lt. Michael B. Seeley, Bakersfield, Cal., was the 235,314th of the 365- day a irlift. His load brought the total to a m illion, 943,655.9 tons of food, coal, machinery and other supplies that kept Berlin going dur­ing the Russian blockade.TTie combined British-American task-force was dumping an average of 8,200 tons daily into the city with such ease nobody paid much attention to it any more. WAGES:Hike on Way?A b ill to increase the present minimum wage in the United States from 40 to 75 cents an hour had cleared its first hurdle and was on Its way to further consid­eration.THE measure was approved un­animously by the senate labor com­mittee.Senator Pepper (D., Fla.), a com­mittee member, said the labor de­partment figured that if the bill became law it would mean pay raises for about 1.25 m illion work­ers who in interstate commerce now make less than 75 cents an hour.However, the senate committee did not go along with the idea that the law should be broadened to in­clude many workers not covered by it now.PEPPER said that the bin had been broadened so that it included only an additional 100,000 non-farm workers. These, he said, are en­gaged in processing agriculture products in so-called “areas of pro­duction.”“Farmers,” he pointed out, “still would have the exemptions they now have.” Recovering MIRROR O f your MIND ■ ■ ■'Money Quarrels* Are Symptomatic By Lawrence Gould Can “money Answer: Only when combined with other, though perhaps tm- conscious factors. People to whom lack of money has brought actual hardship may take out their bit­terness on one another, since it’s natural (if childish) to want to blame someone for your troubles. But most quarrels over money are no more than an excuse for vent­ing irritation over deeper and more intimate dissatisfactions which the people are unwilling to discuss—or perhaps even a£nit. An otherwise happy, well-adjusted couple w ill not “split up” over money. a marriage? is three years old a child should begin to learn the most important lesson of his childhood—the tech­nique of getting on with people ol his own age on an equal basis. He w ill never learn this lesson by staying at home and playing by himself, or by being in his moth­er’s company aU day long. Should a three-year-old visit his playmates?Answer; Certainly, if he is wel­come, and if they have mothers who can watch the children at play—for children of that age can’t always be trusted not to hurt each other when they quarrel, as they probably w ill. By the time he Plaster of Paris, in use all over the world for decades without ster­ilization, contains actual dangers of infection, according to Prof. E. G. D. Murray and Dr. G. D. Denton of McGill university.The fam iliar white material used prim arily as a cast for broken bones has long been overlooked as a source of infection, the university men said. A man in a Montre^ hospital died unexpectedly after a knee operation, over which two suc­cessive leg plaster casts had been iised. The medical men became suspicious of the plaster. Both casts had been thrown away, but Profes­sor Murray investigated plaster taken from original tins. He found gas gangrene germs in 24 of 30 cans. Tetanus was found in two of the cans. Eddie Waitkns, star first base­man of the Philadelphia Phil­lies, who was shot by 19-year old Ruth Steinhagen, was up and around again. It was be­lieved he would he able to re­join the team and play some, more ball this season. SEARCH:Keep It LegalThe United States supreme court ruled that search and seizure must always be within the law and that states as well as the federal gov­ernment must guarantee citizens protection against illegal practices. I BUT there was a difference. The i court held that evidence illegally I secured may be used in state courts, if state law so permits, but such evidence still cannot be used in federal courts. Is ignorance ever a “ safeguard” ?Answer: In itself, no. The most that can be said for it is that it is belter than misinformation or than certain kinds of partial knowledge. If “a little learning is a dangerous thing,” it is because it’s apt to be exaggerated or distorted. A smat­tering of psychology may be worse than ignorance if it makes you think that because neurosis may be caused by repressed feelings, you should give free rein to every lated knowledge is the best and surest safeguard in the long run.

BortonONE OF THE jokes commonly current is that Mrs. Smith “must” have perfect children be­cause she brmgs them up by the book. As a matter of fact this bring­ing up by the book has saved the lives of thousands of children for, whereas, before mothers were taught proper infant feeding, about three in every 10 children died at birth or during the first year. Today only about one in 20 dies during this period.The first great gain in extending the life span began with the sav­ing of the lives of children by proper feedmg during their first and second years.In the Canadian Medical Associa­tion Journal, Dr. C. K. Rowan- Legg, Ottawa, states what we all seem to forget is that the child has an emotional life as well as just the physical, and needs more than, food to keep him healthy and happy. “The feeding of infants with a definite amount of food at fixed intervals neglects the emo­tional side of the child’s life. Mod­em psychiatry feels that peace and physical pleasure make a more sotmd foundation for a stable per­sonality than does too early ex- posture to strict discipline and de­nial.”The infant is born with three needs—satisfaction of hunger, com­fort, affection. Food should be given when it needs it and not thrust upon it when it doesn’t need it. “When the hunger rythm or time arrives and the infant is given food, the amount of crying by the child is greatly reduced, which makes life easier for the mother.”Your fam ily doctor knows, as do most mothers, that infants must do a certain amount of crying to stretch and strengthen the lungs, so that if well fed and comfortable, a little crying wiU do no harm.Dr. Rowan-Legg points out that some infants because of their makeup or personality, need to be fed at other than the regular four hours, and if they are hungry at three hour intervals and not at four hours, the mother should ten this to her doctor or children’s specialist, who w ill make the nec­essary adjustments as to amount of food and intervals between feed ings.While infant feeding is the most important part in building ' a healthy infant, comfort and affec­tion closely follow. ■ g b o c e b t st o re a n d m a r k e t Nice stoSr goods.

Feud Has No Basis The 48-HOUR mystery over J. Edgar Hoover’s resigning as head of the FB I got stirred up from two separate sources.One was President Truman, who got highly indignant at the smear­ing of a lot of innocent bystanders when the FBI reports in the Judith Coplon case were published. Tru­man felt that unchecked rumors should not have been allowed to get into the FBI files, and for a while he was all for firing the effi­cient FBI chief.The other source was J. Edgar Hoover’s public relations man, Lou Nichols, a smart and likable Greek- American, formerly Nicholopolous, wlio, in his zeal to protect his boss, sometimes outsmarts himself.It was Nichols who set in motion the rumor that Hoover was about to resign—as a backfire against Truman's intimation that it might be a good tiling to have Hoover re­sign. Xichols v.’as busy as a bird doj dropping hints to newsmen about friction between Hoover and his chief. Attorney Gen- er.il Tom Clark, and one edi­torial in a local Washington newspaper followed Nichols’ conversation almost verbatim.Nichols is the same alert busy­body who shuttled back and forth between the FBI and Capitol H ill last summer when it was a good bet the Republicans were going to win in November. He seemed al­most as much at home in the office of Congressman Parnell Thomas, chairman of the un-American ac­tivities committee, as the congress­man himself. (Thomas is now un­der indictment in a kickback scan­dal.)Nichols also was chummy with G.O.P. Senator Ferguson of Michi­gan, a bitter foe of the justice de­partment. In fact, Lou was credited with slipping Ferguson the Eliza­beth Bentley spy data, and was so active that some capitol observers were unkind enough to say Lou was playing his cards to become chief of the FBI once the Reubli- cans took office — though this ob­server has never detected anything but strict devotion to his chief. Clark and HooverContrary to reports of trouble between Hoover and Attorney Gen­eral Clark, Hoover never sent a tter threatening resignation, and lere is what actually happened be­tween the two men:Clark telephoned Hoover after Dr. Edward U. Condon of the bu­reau of standards had asked for an FBI apology. Jokingly, Clark called Hoover “Dr Condon.” Hoover teughed.Clark then asked how many confidential agents he had lost as a result of making public the JTBI reports In the Condon case. Hoover said he had lost about 12, and that the one that was most important was inside the Russian embassy.The attorney general said he had been talking to Acting Secretary of State Webb, who said he was sure the Russians knew they were being watched.Clark went on to say that he simply could not drop the Coplon case rather than produce the FBI reports because, if he did, every espionage agent in the United States would figure he had immun­ity.Hoover than asked if the justice department couldn’t take “ a con­tempt” as in the Touhy case in Chicago. There, gangster Roger Touhy had demanded that certain FBI reports be produced in court, and the justice department had re­fused, even though Judge John Barnes threatened to hold the local U.S. attorney in contempt.Clark repUed that the Touhy case was different from the Coplon case in that Touhy was making an appeal and the bur­den of proof was on him. There­fore, ail the justice department risked in taking “ a contempt” was a $100 fine. In the Coplon case, on the other hand, Clark continued, the justice depart- m«nt was the prosecutor, and if it was held in contempt the judge would not merely assess a $100 tine, he would dismiss the case.Hoover said he guessed the at­torney general was right. He added that publication of the FBI papers in court was now water over the dam, but he would be dead opposed to producing the “top secret” docu­ment. Clark AgreesClark said he heartily agreed, and that if the judge ruled this re­port had to be published, then he would appeal to a higher court and if overruled there, then he would move to dismiss the case. (Since then. Judge Reeves has ruled that this top-secret docu­ment was not to be produced.)The conversation was completely cordial throughout as have been relations between Hoover and Clark ever since Clark became at­torney general.

True econo­my depends up­on having suc­cess with every ja r you’ve put up.Lack of suc­cess in putting up fru it and berries may not have been due to any canning procedure. Your first essential job is to select sound fru it and berries. Fruit or berries must be firm and ripe. Over-ripe material may be used for jams and jellies but should never be canned whole.Discard bruised berries or fru it as well as those which are specked.The fresher the fru it or berry, the better is your chance of canning successfully. If you have your own orchard or garden, then you can go right out and pick the produce and rush it into the kitchen for canning. This is the ideal way to can.» •Blanching Means Removing Skins ‘TT’S sometimes desirable to blanch fruit, or peel it. This process means Upping the fruit, such as apricots, peaches, etc., in hot water for a minute or so, then in cold water. The skin wiU slip off easily with just a slight pressure of the fingers or palm.if you’re blanching a bushel of fruit, do it in small doses. Letting the fru it stand in either the hot or cold water for more than th e re­quired minute w ill make it too watery.« *Hot Water BathBest for Fruit Canning■pRUrrS and berries, generally^ hold their shape better whenpacked hot or cold into the jars andare then processed by the hot waterbath.The open kettle method, whereby the fru it is cooked in a large kettle on top of the range and packed while boiling hot into sterilized jars, is preferred by some people.AKer packing in the jars, the LTNN CHAMBERS’ MENUMeat Balls Gravy Rice Carrots and Peas Tomato Salad Poppy Seed RoUs Butter Devil’s Pood Cake Beverage pressure cooker may also be used for processing. The pressure cook­er, however, is not as essential to canning fruits and berries, as it is in canning vegetables.Precooking is recommended on the chart above for such fru it and berries as are wate^. This method gives a better pack.* * *Wash Fruit Thoroughly,But Avoid Soaking BACTERIA lurk in soil, and for ® this reason, it’a necessary to wash fru it and berries thoroughly. However, this does not mean that you allow the fru it or berries to soak in water. They may become waterlogged and give you ai very watery pack once the fru it is in the jar.Whole fruits should be washed under gently running water and placed in a colander to drain as soon as washing is over. Berries may be dipped in and out of fresh, clean water in a basin and then placed in a colander to drain. Rtui- ning water may break the berries apart.* • •How to Choose Hie Best SyrupFTHE CHART, It is suggested that you add syrup to the fruit or berries after it has been packed in jars. In some cases, it is advisa­ble to precook the material in syrup before packing in the jar.For the small soft fru it such as sweet cherries and berries, use a No. 1 or a thin syrup made as follows: .Use three cups of water to one cup of sugar and bring to a boil.T h e medium, or No. 2 syrup is used for peach­es, sotur berries, rhubarb, cher­ries or goose­berries. It is made by using two cups of water to one cup of sugar and bringing to a boil.The heavy, or No. 3 syrup is gen­erally used on large sour fruits that have to be made extra sweet.Scum should be removed from the syrup after cooking, before pouring the syrup on fruit.Com syrup and honey may be substituted in whole or in part in making the syrup. A ll honey, and no sugar, w ill change the flavor of the fruits as weU as make it slightly darker. LYNN SAYS:These Canning Tips W ill Help YouTo make one quart of canned fruit, you’ll need two and one-half pounds of fresh apricots. ’The same weight of peaches and pears w ill also give a quart of canned fruit. ,^ o medium sized pineapples are needed to yield a quart of the canned product.When packing fruit into jars in its raw state (cold pack), add syrup to within one and one-half Inches of the top of the jar. From three to three and one-halt pounds of strawberries are needed for a quart of canned material since they have a high percentage of liquid.One and one-haU to two pounds of cherries or plums w ill yield a quart of the canned product.To sterilize jars for canned foods, wash them first in warm, soapy water. Rinse thoroughly. Cover jars with warm water and allow to come to a boil. Boil for IS minutes. Let stand in wajer until ready use.

Right With God Lesson for July 24, 1949 » /^ E T RIGHT with God” is an expression which has been sometimes used by people. It is not a coarse or cheap idea. It is the most important thing you can do. Think what it means to be wrong with God!That means to be o u t of harmony with his win, go­ing “ across th e grain of reality” as the old Greeks used to say. To be wrong with God means to Dr. Foreman be a rebel against reality, to have the power of the imiverse working against you, and so to be headed for sure destruc­tion. Wrong with God, you cannot win. Right with God, you cannot lose. To be right with God means to be in line with the purpose that runs through all things; it means in the simple language of the Bible, to live as a child of God. • • *Mule or Man?•THERE are two ways in which ^ man can come into line, so to speak, with God. One is by being whipped into it, and the other is by a free act of w ill. The poet of the 32nd Psalm begs his readers not to be like mules or colts (Ps. 32:9). These animals can be broken and controlled by their mas­ters. But they do not understand what is going on, and if left to themselves they would never serve.They have to be caught, har­nessed and driven. But God docs not want to treat human beings like that. Getting rigM tvith God is not a business ot getting into harness, being beat­en into walking on the right road.That is not God’s way. He pleads with us through his inspired poet: Be, not as mules—be men!• * *Facing Up to Yourself•PHE short good Bible word for be-* ing wrong with God is Sin. The very first step toward being right with God is to see yourself as you are. No one ever went to a doctor till he at least suspected he was sick. No one ever went to school of his own accord who thought he knew everything. And no one w ill come to God who thinks he is as good as he needs to be. When life goes hard with us, when everjrthing about our life seems twisted and rotten, we make all sorts of excuses for ourselves, we lay the blame on our parents or our friends of the social and economic system in which we live (doubtless all these have a share in creating oinr troub­les), but we hate to look at our­selves in the m irror of truth.Tills comes first: recognizing our own wrongness, not just weakness but wrongness. When we reach the point where we can say with the Psalmist, “Create in me a clean heart,O God, and renew a right spirit within me,” then we are on tfce right road.• * •“Hide Thy Face”•THERE are two things we never* hear about in the Bible. One is that God never forgave anyone who did not repent, and the other is that he refused to forgive any one who did repent. But repentance is not merely regretting that a wrong was done; still less regretting being caught. Repentance, the kind the Bible describes (as in these Psalms for example), means a complete change of attitude, it means coming over on God’s side and seeing sin the way he sees it, seeing life the way he sees it.God’s forgiveness is not of tb« grudging,'remembering, re­minding kind. But condoning and forgiving are still a world apart. Condoning means saying in effect, It is all right, it makes no difference, you can go on ■ sinning for all I care.Some human “forgiveness” may be like that, but not God’s. His forgiveness is based on real re­pentance, and the aim of it is to save the sinner from his sin.* • «Plenteous in Mercy■PHE Psalmists saw clearly what* kind of God we have. He is not like the holder pf a mortgage wait­ing till the first time some payment is deferred gives him a chance to pounce down and evict his tenant. We are not criminals against whom God is a prosecuting attorney, try­ing to pile up evidence against us. “If thou shoidest mark iniquities, who shall stand?” We are children, lost and wandering children, rebel­lious and disobedient children, but still children; and God holds open the dopr of mercy. \VNU Features) Guest Room Beauty Ne w BEAUTY for your guest­room linens!

JULY 20, 1949 Seltnlist Measures Blood Ejected in Beat of Heart ,c A simple method of measuring the amount of blood ejected by each beat ot the heart has been * perfected by Dr. W. F. Hamilton, professor of physiology. University of Georgia. This is an important re­search development, since it is helpful for a physician to know the output of the heart in a patient, particularly since the height of blood pressure is in part deter­mined by the ammmt of blood the heart must process.Dr. Hamilton injects a known amount of dye into a vein, then collects a series of samples from a needle thrust into an artery. The 'greater the blood flow, the more dilute is the dye in the arterial .sample. Comparison of the new technique with older, more com­plicated, ones in the same subjects showed the measurements to be nearly identical.When the heart contracts and blood is forced into the aorta, the pressure in this vessel increases. Measurement of the distensibility of the aorta and the pressure change from the heart beat lays the basis for a calculation of the output of the heart from the pressures gener­ated in the aorta by the heart.Dr. Hamilton is also studying the role of the kidney in congestive failure of the circulation—so-called heart failure. Indications are that, as the circulation fails, less oxygen is available to the tissues. This sets up, by an unknown mechanism, a stimulus to the kidney to remove a large quantity of salt and water from the urine and pour it into the blood. With a healthy heart, this would increase the volume of blood in the body and enable the circula­tion to meet a temporary emer­gency. I Sylvester Says: choose •You've got a choice here!” T h e only country in the world where you can still choose your own style of clothing; a home of yourown; choose the materials and lo­cation. Take away the right to choose, to select, and to owni^nd you destroy democracy. On a na­tionwide scale here’s how Ameri­cans choose to spend their incomes.They spend four times more for food than they do for housing and rent. They spend 1% times more _ for clothing and Vk times more j for household expenses. They spend as much on liquor and tobacco as they do on homes and they spend twice as much for liquor, tobacco, travel, entertainment, horseraeing, cosmetics and other thing.? rarely referred to as necessities than they do on housing.It’s a great country. You still have a chance to choose between freedom and government-controlled regimentation.

PHA, for example, re­quires that masonry unit walls be damp-proofed by the application of a one-half inch thick coat of Port­land cement plaster, over which shall be applied at least one heavy coat of undiluted hot tar. asphalt or other acceptable type of com­pound. The damp-proofing should be carried down in a curved “cove” over the top of the footing. Spanish DaggerThe Spanish dagger (yucca carn- erosana) is a branched yucca, with thick, long, broad leaves, up to three feet in length, and it attains a height of 10 to 15 feet or more. Big Bend national park is one of, the very few areas in the United States in which it can be found. There it is seen in extraordinary \ abundance in Dagger Flat, an area ) some two miles in width by 10 in | length, in the northeastern part of ■ the park. i FINE 9ATCH REPAimC W atchm akers m u s t keep abreast w ith all ne w developm ents i n th e field o f H o ro lo gy .

C Sylvester Says: “100 years is a long time to wait for a house, but by building 500,000 public housing units per year it would talce the govern­ment 100 year* to place every “low-income” Ameri­can family in govornment public housing.”The average earnings of families now living in public "subsidized” housing is ?2,200. There are ap­proximately 20 million American families with incomes no higher than that.On the basis of $2,200 a year in­come, more than half the families in the U. S. qualify for a home in a government housing unit.But most American families haven’t learned how helpless they are, for, according to U. S. Celisus figures, over one-half of our fami­lies with incomes below $1,000 per year already own their own homes.

No Use r 'GLISH Playwright Richard Brinsley Sheridan and his wife invited another couple to their house one evening. After dinner the two ladies retired to another room and le ft' the men to their cigars."Don’t breathe a word,” whis­pered the playwright to his friend. "We've just inherited a piece of valuable property. But my wife and I have promised faithfully not to td l a soul about our good luck.”"W hy are you telling me, then?” asked the guest."Sim ply because I’m certain,” smiled the author, “that Mrs. Sheridan is upstairs confiding our secret to your wife.” FAIR QUESTION B z z t The sailor home on leave was telling his fiancee’s fam ily some rather tall tales of his adventures.A ll listened, enthralled, except the youngest son, who was obvious­ly unimpressed.“You see. Tommy,” said the sailor, after one extra-startling story, “I always believe in fight­ing the enemy with his own weap­ons.”“Oh, yeah,” sneered the lad, “And how long does it take you to sting a wasp?” “E” for Effort Five professional wisecrackers sat discussmg gags and cracks too dead ever to be used again. One asked whether anything could be salvaged from that old one: “Who was that lady I saw you out with last night?”They all fell silent, wiggling pads and pencils, thinking. In fourteen seconds this slip was tossed onto the table: “Who was that lady I saw you outwit last night?” We don't like to make marks after jrour name. The recruit was causing sergeant a lot of trouble.Finally the N.C.O. went up to hini and said sarcastically: “Do you realize you are the only one in step?”"W ell,” said the recruit, "it’s no good telling me—you’d better tell the other fellows!” SCOOP! New Steel Age in Offing ForLandoflHidnightSunNorway, long an iron ore export­er, plans to roll its own soon in a big and modern iron and steel works.Up by the Arctic circle, the small seaport of Mo-I-Rana ("I-Rana” means in Rana district) is tmdergc^ ing an amazmg transformation in* to Norway’s “Far North Pitts­burgh.”Hydroelectric power for the plant, bomb-proof chambers for the power generators, and railway tunnels cut deep inside the mountains are a few arresting features of the project.Vihth a working harbor and plenty of iron near by, and a north-bound railway already reaching past Mo, this gateway to the lands of the midnight sun finds itself the center of a potential steel age that recalls stirrings of long ago.Norway’s first Iron Age lasted from the Roman era well intd ine- dieval times. Its cultural develop­ments started with the expansion of Roman influence in northern Europe, and the importation of raw iron and fabricated iron objects.Later, foUowing the discovery that native bogs were rich in iron de­posits, the early Norwegians began makhig their own iron products. From iron smelted in prim itive blast furnaces, they created a_ sur­prising number of useful arti^es, from kettles and other kitchen utensils to sickles and axes.The iron ax, which made possible the building of more advanced boats, helped lay the foundation for Norway’s seagoing activities, M ill a major factor in the nation’s eco­nomic life. Lipstick Stain on Fabric Galls for Pfompt ActionLipstick was made for lips—not for decorating table linens, hand­kerchiefs and blouses. However, ac­cidents do happen occasionally and, when they do, then comes the question of how to remove the stain.Helen Zwolanek, clothing spec­ialist. University of Illinois coUege of agriculture, says lipstick stains on fabrics call for prompt action. At best, such stains are difficult— sometimes impossible — to remove without injuring the fabric.If the material is washable, first loosen the stain by working glyc­erine or vaseline into the fabric. Then launder it in the usual way. Don’t apply soap or other alkalies before you loosen the stain. They are apt to set it.If water spots the material, work vaseline or lard into the stain. Then either sponge with carbon tet­rachloride or dip the stained part in a bowl of the solvent. If a trace of color remains, sponge the fabric with denatured alcohol. Be sure to dilute the alcohol when you use it on acetate rayon and colored ma­terials. One cup of the denatured alcohol to two cups of water is • good proportion. Dumwiddy—Cheer up, old chap. No news is good news.Golladay—Not when you’re run­ning a newspaper. Treatments for WoodAccording to publications of the National Fire Protection associa­tion, the natural combustibiUty of wood may be decreased by impreg­nation with fire retardant chemi­cals or with fire-retardant coatings. Wood that is impregnated with an adequate quantity of fire-retardant chemicals w ill not usually support combustion. For interior work, combinations of ammonium phos- fate and ammonium sulfate have been used as fire retardants. Other chemicals that have been used are ammonium chloride, sodium borate and zinc chloride. Most of these chemicals are soluble and would be washed out where exposed to the weather or when used on floors cleaned by washii^. Certain ma­terials when applied as coatings over wood provide some protection against ignition of the wood and spread of flame. Wood Duck RestorationConsidered by many to be Amer­ica’s most beautiful waterfowl, the wood duck is being given special attention through a project inaugu­rated hy the Massachusetts bureau of wildlife research and manage­ment, accordmg to the W ildlife Management institute. To supple­ment the state’s short supply of hollow trees, in which the wood duck customarily nests; the bureau is distributing free to sportsmen and landowners several thousand nesting boxes fashioned from war- surplus packing crates. Two thour sand already have been erected by state personnel. The boxes are placed on poles six feet above the water and from 15 to 20 feet from shore. Installation in trees was found to attract predators to eggs and ducklings and to result in the boxes being used by squirrels, W M , and owls. Notice, Veterans!

"Setting Cobra”The "Spitting Cobra” snake is perhaps, more dangerous than flie other cobras, since it not only bites at close range but some species may “ spit” venom from a short distance. The Ringhals, a "spit­ting” snake, is the shortest of the cobras, averaging about four feet in length. When disturbed, it w ill eject venom in two streams from the fangs, accompanied by the ex­pulsion of air from the lungs, so that the venom is sprayed several feet in a fine shower. Entry of the venom into the eyes causes intense pain, followed by inflamation and partial or total blindness. The black­necked cobra also sprays its venom. This snake is larger tiian the Rmg- hak, attaining a length of seven feet when fully growh, and it rears and "spits” upon slight provoca­tion. Dye Them To MatchMaybe you have a clump of odd stockings in your bureau ^awer— p erfect good singles, the mates to which have been disabled by nm-trouble. Well, the chances are you never w ill buy another pair with exactly the same color and heel Aape, so why don’t you dye them to match? You can buy color remover, recommended as a first atep, and dyes m 10 cent and 15 cent packages. Durections are on the packages. You can re-dye to advantage when hosiery color- styles change, too.

We pray, and often grief is Stilled, And pain becomes a Strange, paSt thing; Our loads are lifted, many'times Even from our remembering. And these are miracles as great As those far ones on sea and land. All healing, all release, dear Lord, Comes from Thy hand. Thy unseen hand. You shot a ballplayer and can go to prisoi). Elm er.—Do they put people in prison for shooting ballplayers?Doctor.—If they didn’t some clubs would be bumped off in a single afternoon. Now, listen, there must be a psychopathic reason for what you did. As a child how was your home life, and you’d better make it bad. Was there, for instance ever a Christmas when your folks spent $5 on your brother for a first baseman’s m itt and only $2 on you for a book? Elm er.—That could have done it. —o— Doctor.-Did your father ever read tte baseball summaries alohd? Did you ever live in Brooklyn back in the days of those eccentric infields? Was anybody in your fam ily a base­ball fanatic? Elm er.—I had an uncle who used to recite that Costello thing en­ titled “Who’s on First?”Doctor.—Good. I’ll make a note of that. In your infancy were you ever chased with a ball bat for not doing your homework?E lm e r.- I seem to remember something like that. And I recall that as a little child I was taught to walk too early. I developed an aversion to walks. Doctor.—That would explain it if you shot a pitcher. In school did you ever have a teacher who wore a mask and chest protector?Elm er.—No, but I had a kinder­ garten principal who carried a sawed-off bat and insisted he had been ordered to bunt.Doctor.—In your im m ature years did you ever play softbaU? Elm er.-Yes. I was such a poor hitter I never got to first except when hit by the pitcher. And I never got to second because there wasn’t a .300 hitter on the team. Doctor.—Now it’s all clear.If you ever were to get to second base you knew yon would have to shoot the first baseman . . . The idea took pos­session of you! . . . It became an urge! . . . Xott couldn’t re­sist it! . . . We can explain everything to the court. Yon are as good as free. Elmer.—Goody! Goody! Can 1 have my gun back?

First there was a ladder placed against a window that ppened into a second floor hall. This window had been discovered open. Inspector Beatty told MacDougal to summon all the servants. Then he questioned them. They all had good excuses. Sid Firbush, a secre­tary, had spent the night at the movies with a friend. Edwards, the butler, had read in his room un­ til M r. ana Mrs. Sanders returned from a party, when, he admitted them.It was right after that, that Mrs.-Sanders went to the safe to replace the jewels she had worn, and found the others gone.Martha Greene, the houskeeper, had been in her room all evening. Her room was located on the sec­ond floor. She had gone down to the kitchen about 10 o’clock for a bite to eat and fotmd Viola Mat­ son, the m aid, there with her boy friend. Returning, Martha had passed Edward’s room and seen Ed­wards sitting by his table, reading. INSPECTOR BEATTY dismissed the servants and went back to the study. He examined every inch of it. Then he went into the hall and examined that. He also ex­amined the window and the ladder and the groimd below the window. It had rained a little the night be­fore and he found some footprints beside the ladder. They looked like men’s footprints.Inspector Beatty sought out Sid Firbush. He 'asked the secretary if Max Sanders held biisine^ confer­ ences in his study. Firbush said that he did. "The chances are, then, tbat he’s bad occasion to o ^ n the safe when others were pres­ent?" " It’s quite likely."" I want as complete a list as you can make me of a ll the people you’ve known to be in the study during the past month.” Inspector Beatty left Sid Firbush making out the list, summoned MacDougal and went down the hall He entered one door after the next, first knocldng to make sure the room was empty. Presently he re­turned to the haU, bearing a pair of shoes.Carrying the shoes he returned to the study and asked Firbush if they were his shoes.“Why, yes,’ said Firbush. "Why? Where did you get them ?”“ Out of your closet. I searched the closets of all the servants till I found a pair of shoes with some mud on the soles. It was you who com­mitted the robbery.” “ You’re crazy. That’s a cock­eyed theory. The robber came up the ladder.” “No,” said Inspector Beatty, “that’s only what you expected us to believe. That’s why you put the ladder there and left the window open. The robbery was committed before you placed the ladder there.” “How do you know that? You can’t prove it.” “I won’t have to. What I can prove is that no one came up the ladder. It rained last night. There was mud. There’s mud on your shoes. The shoes fit the footprints at the foot of the ladder. Yet there is no mud at a ll on the rungs of the ladder. If there had been I would have probably been fooled and not been sure that some one inside com­mitted the theft. Besides you had the best alibi. I checked with the m an with whom you said you at­ tended the movie. He broke down and confessed everything.” MacDougal was amazed. After­wards he said to Beatty: “I didn’t know you checked with Pirbush’s friend. When did that happen?” “It didn’t,” said Beatty. m m M M ACROSS 1. Praise 5. Antelopes <Tibet) 9. Otherwise 10.

A fine record. 50 Years Of Ser­ vice W ith this issue of The Davie Record we complete 50 years of service to the people of Mocks- ville, Davie and adjoining coun­ ties. The Record was founded in 1899, by the late E. H. Morris, who was editor and owner of the paper for eight years. The pre­ sent editor and owner purchased the paper from Mr. Morris in 1907, and for the past 42 yesirs. we have tried to give the people of this section a newspapei: that could go into the homies of all the people, and contain news and features that would appeal to the entire family. Our sincere thanks is extended to all our advertisers, subseribers and correspondents who have given us their support and assist­ ance for the past 42 years.

It is ethi­ cally wrong for our government to make liquor, give it the pro­ tection o our laws, {.ut in places of respectibility on our street corners, and entice our citizens to drink. “Woe unto him that giveth his neighbor drink, that puttest thy bottle to him, and makest him drunk also that thou mayest look on their nakedness.” Hab. 2:15. Our national government should outlaw the liquor business, and prosecute the violators thereof. I am against legalized beverage alcohol because it is economically unsound.

TAFT-HARTLBY: Another Try The administration hadn’t given ap, despite a hum iliating setback In the senate by Taft-Hartley law supporters. It was reported that President Truman’s congressional aides were planning another try at repealing the measure, but had reached no decision. THIS CAME to light after House Speaker Sam Rayburn concluded a conference with the President, rhe decision on a new repealer ef­fort was to await further confer­ ences with labor committee mem­bers in both houses.While the persistence of the ad­ministration m ight be comendable, the wisdom in any further effort toward a Taft-Hartley repealer was doubtful. A m ajority of top leaders had conceded there %vas little hope ol getting the bill changed at this session of congress, and all, in­ cluding administration leaders, were willing to make the question an issue in the 1950 congressional elections. THE RESULT of the vote on changing the Taft-Hartley labor law was confusing to the average observer of the political scene. If labor had played as im portant a part as it was conceded in the elec­ tion of President Truman—and with congressional elections up next year—how could so many senators have found the courage to fly into the face of what might seem cer­ tain defeat?On the other hand, if labor’s role in politics is as negligible as others claim , why was the administration pressing so hard for the Taft-Hart­ley repealer. One thing appeared certain: There were many congress­ men sufficiently unimpressed with labor’s political importance that they didn’t mind going contrary to labor’s wishes on the Taft-Hartley issue.RECESSION: Ho, Ho, Ho! W ith unemployment figures stand­ing at the highest peak in 11 years,■ and many nationwide organizations and national leaders casting about tor a bulwark against economic hazards, congressional leaders were laughing at the idea the nation might be edging into a depression.THEY had just conferred with President Truman and upon emerg­ing from the conference ridiculed the notion that all m ight not be as rosy as possible with the nation’s economic picture. If the lawmakers were out on a lim b, they were way out, for House Speaker Rayburn and the senate i si- Democratic leader, Scott Lucas, minced no words in expressing their optimism.“WITH 58 m illion people em­ ployed in industry and 30 m illion farmers with money to pay forwhatever they need, I ’ll be----^if I see how you can call it a reces­sion,” Rayburn declared.Said Lucas: “If it is, it’s the most prosperous one we’ve ever experi­enced.” MEANWHILE, it was said Presi­dent Truman was preparing a spe­ cial economic message for delivery to congress. It was expected to carry recommendations for deal­ing with declining prices and the' unemployment situation. Out of all this came repetition of the additional-taxes proposal. Asked about that, Rayburn said it had yet to be determined. He did not make it clear whether he meant President Truman is reconsidering his plea for four billion doUars in additional taxes a year, or whether the matter is stiU up in the air in congress. NEW HOMES: More Cash Buyers planning t o finance homes through FHA-insured mort­ gages may have to make larger down payments from now on._ THE federal housing administra­ tion had cautioned its underwriters to consider declining construction costs when appraising houses for insured loans. The result, the agency said, would be lower mortgages on many new homes. If the builder fails to cut his selling price in line with lower costs, the down payment will be higher. THE decline in building costs and materials have been noted since late last year, the underwrit­ers were told. Most materials are plentiful, it was said, and produc­tion rates of workers in many sec­tions have improved. Newlyweds Governor Fnller Warren of Flordia and a honey blonde daughter of California, the for­ mer Barbara Maiming, are shown as they left the reception foUotving iheir weddmg in Cali­ fornia. DEFENSE: Dictator Feared In nearly aU discussions concern­ ing unification of the nation’s armed services, one thing stood out —many congressmen feared the possibility of a “m ilitary dictator” if framers of a unification bill weren’t careful. THIS feeling was put into words by Georgia’s Representative Vin­ son who proposed several amend­ments to the pending bUl, declaring that he wanted to make sure no m ilitary dictator ever arises in the ■ United States. Vinson, a Democrat, | is chairm an of the house armed \ services committee. The amendments he proposed I would take the armed forces out i from beyond the recently enacted | government reorganization 1 a w, j and put them beyond a shuffling by President Truman; put a civilian chairman over the joint chiefs of staff, a body which includes the highest officers of the arm y, navy and air force, and fix the member­ship of the national security council by law, requiring that other mem­bers be subject to approval by the senate.THESE AMENDMENTS were proposed to a unification bill which already has passed the senate. The measure is one which would in­crease the direct authority of the secretary of defense over the armed forces.Louis Johnson, who holds that post, has told the house committee he needs that authority to make the 1947 unification act work. He pledged to save over a billion dol­lars a year in operation of the m ili­ tary services if the biU were passed, and a civilian manager put in charge. INTELLECT: Women's Best? If two Indiana university profes­ sors are to be believed, then the m ale of the species m ust face an unpleasant fact—namely, that girls (or women) can reason better than boys (or men). THE professorial gentlemen claimed, and c it ^ figures for proof, that the female is the su­ perior of the male in the reasoning department, and this despite ten niillion jokes, books, philosophical discourses and general experience to the contrary. The professors say unequivocally that given a set of circumstances, the lassies can come up with more logical answers than boys can do. These gentlemen are Dr. W illiam H. Fox and Prof. Nicholas A. Fattu of the research division of Indiana university’s school of edu­cation. They made the tests in two high schools, one in a city of 11,000 in north central Indiana, and the other in a consolidated rural school near Indianapolis. TO USE the professors’ own words in the report:“Scores on the interpretation of date test, seeking to establish their relationship to measures of achieve­ ment, personality and interest, found no differentiation . . but there was a clear cut advantage for girls in both schools in ability to reason, to see relationships, to make comparisons and to suspend judgment until pertinent facts are collected,” To which many a male w ill coun­ter: Too bad they seem to lose those faculties when they grow up. MUNICIPAL INCOME Property Tax Declines as Revenue Source American cities were facing an unpleasant fact—general property taxation as a source of revenue was proving inadequate to meet municipal needs. The International City Managers’ association reported the finding after a survey of municipal-revenue sources. Data was gathered from census returns and from reporting members. In five years from 1942 to 1947, the proportion of m unicipal income obtained from property taxation compared with that from other sources dropped 8.4 per cent. Slightly more than half of munici­ pal revenues now come from prop­erty taxes. In cities of over 25,000 population revenue has increased by 13.2 per cent, while the property tax increased by only 5.9 per cent. CORN: R eaching Up “. . . And the com is as high As an elephant’s eye . . .” Those lines from a hit tune from fte m usical ‘‘Oklahom a!’* give an indication of the jubilation in the com country when the stalte are high, and more than a hint of the crop’s importance. THE federal government also is acutely conscious of the importance of the com crop to the nation’s economy—so when it was reported that this year’s com crop was reaching for the skies, there was general rejoicing. It is traditional with the men who grow corn that if the stalks are “knee high by the Fourth of July” an excellent crop is in prospect. But this year, if that adage were true, the abundance of the crop would be amazing. For by July Fourth, the com stood not just “knee high,” but almost shoulder high.. From all sections of the m ajor com belt— extending from Ohio westward to Nebraska—the word was the same: the com crop was off to an excel­lent start. GRAIN experts considered it pos­sible that last year’s fabulous crop of three billion, 650 m illion bushel m ight be topped by the 1949 crop. Last year’s crop had much to do with cracking the postwar agricul­tural price inflation and is believed by many to have played a key part in keeping Thomas E. Dewey out of the White House. While prospects were considered splendid, the cautious were knock­ing on wood for two reasons. These were that Iowa and Illinois both have extensive com-borer infesta­tion, and subsoil moisture was de­ficient in some areas, making the crop more dependent than usual on good rains in July and August. TOKYO ROSE: Sitting Pretty Whatever had been her effect in bringing death to American G I’s in the South Pacific, there was to be no death penalty for Mrs. Iva D’Aquino—Icnown to the world as Tokyo Rose. SHE was on trial in San Francis­ co on a charge of treason because the government of the United States contends she broadcasted for the Japanese' in the “hope to demoral­ize and discoxu-age allied m ilitary men and to im pair the ability of the United States to wage war against its enemies.” In a manner of speaking, Tokyo Rose was sitting pretty. The gov­ ernment prosecutors said they would not ask for the death pen­ alty, so all the woman faced was imprisonment and fine or possibly both. A newspaper story of her ar­raignment said she wore a “tail­ ored gray mixed plaid suit with gilded buttons. Her freshly-sham­ pooed hair was topped with a gold beret. She sat demurely at her at­torney’s elbow as if she were his secretary.” ALL throughout the war there were mixed claim s about her in­ fluence on G I morale. Many service­men declared they “got a kick out of her broadcasts—chiefly for laughs,” while others blamed her f o r widespread demoralization among the Allied personnel. In view of the Judy Coplon con­viction on a charge of treason in connection with the Russian gov­ernment, things m ight go hard with Tokyo Rose in the length-of- term department: but with the specter of death removed as pun­ishment for a crime for which death m ight well have been expected, the blow couldn’t be too severe. Heave-Ho! MIRROR O f YourMIND ‘Fussing'Won't Get Service By Lawrence Gould Julian Wilson, Cleveland newspaper photographer, is almost in the news as often as he photographs it. Here he is getting tb« old heave-ho from the Cleveland ball park after dispute with umpires A rt Pas- sarella and Eddie Rommel about how far he should venture onto the field. NEW PARTY: Target: Poverty Like an item from the past was an announcement from Columbus, Ohio, that the Townsend clubs had decided to establish a new political party in the United States. Not too long ago the nation’s press was full of stories of the Townsend movement—a drive by Dr. Francis E . Tovmsend and his folowers to obtain a nice pension for everyone over 60 years of age. It drew many followers and was a political factor. Is making a fuss the way to get good service? Answer: Only for the moment, though there are times when it may be necessary. For at bottom, grownups react much lilte chil­dren. If you scare a child into behaving, he wiU disobey you just as soon as he thinks he can get away with doing .<50, whereas it he knows that he can count on your approval when he’s good, he’ll do almost anything to please you. Unless he is “ soured,” the fellow who knows you can tell good serv­ ice from bad w ill usually work his hardest for you bectmse he also is aware that you w ill give him crit­ ical appreciation for a good job. Is it possible to be “too human” ? Answer: Fundamentally, y o u can’t be anything BUT human. Regardless of race, sex, or ances­try, every human being has the same instinctive “drives” or urges, and the only difference between one person and another is in what he does about them. A drive may be repressed (which distorts, but does not kiU it); expressed in its prim itive form, regardless of con­sequences; or “ adjusted to real­ ity” in such a way as to bring satisfaction to oneseU and others. The “too human” person is one unable or afraid to “adjust.” Can a “heart attack” be a blessing? Answer; Yes, m aintains novelist Charles Yale Harrison in his re­ cent book, "Thank God for My Heart A ttack!” A close brush w i& death gives you a new sense of the meaning and potentialities of life, while the “warning” it ■ provides m ay help you to live longer than you otherwise would by making you recognize your lim itations. The author’s account of his expe­rience and reactions as a victim of coronary thrombosis is a nota­ ble example of the way in which a basically healthy-minded per­ son m ay adjust himself to a phys­ical and emotional shock.

Barton KTHILE SOME COUNTRIES most- ” ly are interested in getting “enough” food to eat, there are others—^United States and Canada particularly—who are most in­ terested in getting enough of the right “kinds” of food to m aintain physical and mental strength in adults and, in addition, proper growth in children. One of the few benefits obtained from World W ar II was the em­ phasis placed on the proper diet tor the armed forces and also for civilians at home doing their part to win the war. ' There was no lack of food in the United States and Canada. In fact, so abundant was the supply that in order to make it more attractive to the eye and taste, food manu­facturers left out im portant food elements (vitam ins and m inerals), with harm ful effects upon the structures and working processes of the body. That is why we see these food elements being added to bread, m ilk and other daUy prod­ ucts.Research workers have shown that through delay in marketing food loses much of its nutritional value, as does keeping food in the kitchen instead of in the refrigera­ tor.As some of the valuable food ele­ ments are not eaten in the home by children, cur school authorities —recognizing the importance of food to growing children—now sup­ ply school lunches outlined by food experts.In addition to keeping the child robust physically, it has been found that where these especially pre­ scribed school lunches are eaten regularly, the children are more in­ terested in their lessons, are bet­ ter behaved and attend more reg­ularly. As boys ' at school, we thought that “domestic science” as taught to the girls, was just a play hour. We have only to think of the school lunch to realize that the training of the young girl in the right kinds of food to eat, their preparation and preservation before use, w ill mean much to her home and its health and happiness. HEALTH NOTES While some physicians state that allergy often is blamed for symp­toms that are not caused by al­ lergy, other physicians are finding that allergy causes symptoms the cause of which cannot be explained in any other way.» • « Never neglect the common cold. It m ay often be the forerunner of other dangerous conditions. When an inflam ation occurs in the muscles, it is called m yalgia; if in the nerves, neuralgia. M yalgia is another name for old-fashioned muscular rheumatism. Bed-wetting is not found so often among boys and girls who play with other children in group or other games, though there are ex­ceptions. The Questions 1.

Economy Talked PR E SID E N T TRUMAN discussed * plans for fortifying the nation’s economy against depression in a recent off-the-record talk with six Democratic senators and congress­ men. Only a meager announcement leaked out to the press, but here are the highlights of what hap­pened. A program of “economic expansion” was proposed that may affect the future of every Ameri­ can. President Truman greeted the congressional group by saying: “I thiiik I am way ahead of you on this.” Then he pulled several charts out of his top, right-hand draw­ er showing the latest national statistics on prices, wages, profits and production up to the end of May. He admitted that the first symp­ toms of depression are beginning to show and agreed that the best plan is to attack any “m ild break” in the economy to stop it from spreading. He stressed, however, that he is not worried about depres­sion—as long as each problem Is met before it grows into a crisis. Factory Loans The legislators who called on the President were Senators James Murray of Montana, Elbert Thomas of Utah, John Sparkman of Ala­bam a, Hubert Humphrey of Min­ nesota, Congressman Andy Bie- m iller of Wisconsin and Congress­ woman Helen Gahagan Douglas of California—a ll Democrats. At the top of the five-point “economic expansion” program ■they urged on Truman was pro­ motion of private investment and production by <fiering FHA-type loans to build plants. Private en­terprise, they agreed, is the key to a healthy economy. The legis­ lators also recommended: 1. A national advisory board, combining the business, labor, agri­ culture and consumer committees that now exist separately; 2. Measures to deal directly with serious unemployment wherever and whenever it develops: 3. Long-range planning for pub­ lic works and resource develop­ ment; 4. Voluntary adjustments in pur­ chasing power. Truman said he couldn’t endorse the program without studying the details, but remarked: “You are my kind of folks.” Their kind of thinking, he added, had always coincided with his own. It had been his belief and policy to ease off inflation controls gradually and give the economy a diance to adjust itself. But the G.O.P.- controlled 80th congress scrapped all controls at once, let prices and profits soar un­ checked; then, as a last straw, passed a “rich, m an’s” tax bill. “That was no tim e for a rich- m an’s tax biU—when profits were at their highest,” Truman shook his head. The inevitable result was “eco­ nomic dislocation,” the President declared. From such dizzy heights, it would only be natural for prices, profits, wages and production to come crashing down. Therefore, he said, the government must throw roadblocks in the way to pre­ vent stampeding the economy into depression. If the public doesn’t get panicky, Truman added, there is no danger of depression, Dixiecrat Postmasters South Carolina’s wily Sen. Olin Johnston reversed the tables on President Truman the other day in d applied some sly counter- presswe to get postmasters ap­ pointed in his state. It is no secret that the President has been holding up appointments to punish southern senators and congressmen who have opposed his program. But what the White House didn’t take into account is that Johnston happens to be chair­ m an of the senate post office com­mittee which must pass on all post­master appointments. So the South Carolinian sidled up to Sen. Howard McGrath, Demo­cratic national chairman, and later to Senate Secretary Les Biffle, the President’s close friend. Drawling sweetly, Johnston let it be known that he was disturbed over not getting postmasters for South Carolina, and hinted that maybe he would just block all ap­pointments until those for his own state came through. Johnston alowed time for his remarks to pass on to ibe White House, tfeen called for an appointment. When he was ushered into the President’s office, he talked about other matters. Then he mentioned casually: ‘‘I notice a lot of postmasters have been ap­ pointed lately, hnt my state hasn’t gotten any.” Wouldn’t the President, please, he asked, look into the matter? Scratching a note on his pad, Truman replied: “Yes, we’ll alp tend to that right away,” m & s § n 0 i p Freeze Foods for Future Use (See Recipes Below) Freeze your Foods Ro a s t t u r k e y in mid-summer, broiled ciiicken in January and strawberry shortcake in Decem­ ber, these are some of the items which are a real possibility on menus if you have facilities for freezing your fo o i TWs may be a freezer right in your own home, or it m ight be space rented at one of the large lockers that are now available in so m any localities.Foods know no season when it’s possible to freeze them, and, this, of course, is one of the best ways to avoid meal monotony. Y o u simply freeze the food when it’s at the peak of the season, then eat it when you want it. Freezing food is one of the sim­plest of preserving methods since foods require only a m inim um of preparation, and they retain their freshness until thawed and pre­ pared. * • • How to Prepare Meat For Freezer r ’S a simple job to freeze meat for future meals and you need foUow only a few simple rules to do it successfuly.When choosing anim als for freez­ ing, select those healthy ones of size and weight which w ill pro­duce the quality of cuts preferred by the fam ily. Excessive fat is un­necessary, but an ample covering of fat protects the lean from dry­ ing out during the frozen storage. This latter does not apply to veal since that m eat has little fat.These rules apply whether you purchase meats from a market or produce house. Ask for quality cuts from prim e cattle, and mention that you intend freezing them and the butcher may be more careful in his selection.Once the carcass is prepared, chill the m eat im mediately as bacteria grow rapidly at the high tempera- tiures. Molds, bacteria and yeast m ay ruin the flavor of the meat im- less it is chilled at once.Meat cutting' is no job for a novice and should be done by the butcher or an expert meat cutter at a locker plant. You, however, should specify cuts you want, if you’ve purchased a carcass or part of one. It’s a good idea to have the m eat cut in fam ily size portions to eliminate waste, since the meat cannot, or should not be frozen once it has been thawed. It’s popular, too, to have meat boned since it requires less freezmg space, and since the bones cannot puncture wrapping paper once they’re eliminated.• • • Proper W rapping Saves Q uality 'r ’S UNWISE to economize on wrapping paper for frozen foods since the m eat m ay dry out and “freezer bum s” often result. Reg­ ular butcher paper, ordinary waxed paper or grocery store type paper are not used. Moisture and vapor- proof paper bags or cartons made especially for this purpose are best.- They should be easy to fold, wrap or handle, tough enough to resist tearing, and capable of receiving an ink or china pencil m ark for labeling. L IN N SATS:Use These Freezing Tips to Help TonI Varieties are of great importance i in the successful freezing of fruits, i Apples for sauce, for example, \ should be Baldwins, Greenings, j Northern Spy or Yellow Transpar- . ent types. ! Study the freezing space which w ill be available to you, and plan how much of each fruit, \'egetable, meat or poultry you will have. Don’t overstock one item so that you can’t freeze something you want. LYNN CHAMBERS’ MENU Chicken Shortcake with Gravy Buttered Lim a Beans Carrot Sticks Beverage Cookies Peach Salad in Cherry Gelatin Peppermint Ice Cream. Each bundle of meat in the freez­ er should contain enough meat for your fam ily for a m eal. W a x e-d o r waterproofed paper m a y be used between each hamburger, sieak or chop since ttiis makes them easy to separate and hastens thawing once they come out for use. Or, in this case, you m ay readily remove two or three chops without thawing the whole package. .P u ll the proper wrapping tightly around the meat to smooth out all possible air and eliminate air pockets. The package should be smooth and firm ly packed to con­ serve storage space. Seal the paper with a “drugstore fold” which means bringing one edge over the other and folding it over the shorter sheet. Now twist or fold the ends and seal vrith ace­ tate (scotch) tape. This tape is not affected by moisture or cold.Label all packages so you can easily identify them when you want them. The label should contain the type of meat enclosed, the number of servings or the weight in pounds, and the date on which it was wrapped for freezmg. As soon as the meat is wrapped and labeled, place in the freezer. If you do not have a freezer at home, store the packages in the refrigera­tor until you can take them to the locker, but this should not be more than a few hours. • • • Frozen Poultry Keeps W ell Frozen poultry is one food which keeps well in its frozen state, and requires even less attention than f r e e z i ng meat since you yourself can prepare it for freezing with no special tools. Clean the bird and dis­joint it, and in place of- cooking it, wrap it for freezing to be cooked several months later. Birds are killed, bled, plucked, chilled and dressed before they can be packaged. If you desire, it’s a great convenience to stuff the poul­ try and freeze it in that state, so the'poultry is ready to pop in the oven for Christmas or Thanksgiv­ ing dinner. Do not use sage in the dressing if you expect to keep the bird more than three months since the flavor permeates the meat. Here’s a gmde for chicken to be frozen: broilers should not weigh over two and a half pounds dressed, or be over 12 weeks old; frying chickens should weigh from three to three and a half pounds and be 20 weeks old. Fowl for fricassee may weigh from four to six pounds and can be from one to two years old. A roast­ing chicken should weigh four to five pounds, but is best if not more than a year old. Capons should weigh from 7 to 10 pounds but should not be over 8 to 10 months old. ■ Fruit juices for breakfast or bev­ erages are easily frozen. Select good juices from well - matured fruits and chill thoroughly. Extract the juice and pour into paraffin coated tubs or cylinders. Freeze immediately. Water used for washing fruit, berries and vegetables should hava ice in it unless the temperature is lower than 65°. Speed the harvest to the freezer just as you speed food to.the can for canning to prevent food value loss and deterioration. SCRIPTURE: Psalms 34; 37; 46; 91 138.3. 7a: 143:3.DEVOTIONAL BEADING: IsalaU 26:1-10 God Can Be Trusted Lesson for Jnly 31, 1949 i p V E N if you do nothing else with “ this lesson, it w ill be a good thing to learn by heart some of the Psalms of Trust which have been selected for your study this week. They are far too rich to be treated in one column.« * « Who Can Trust in God? (pS A L M 34:16-22.) Not every one * has a right to trust in God. Those who do not believe in him , do not love him , work against him, try to break down , _ and corrupt those ^ who do believe in _ ' % h im — these need j hexpect nothing at ^ ^ his hand. But there are three classes of persons who are encouraged to put their trust in God. One is the “con­trite,” the repen- Dr. Foreman tant, those w h o sincerely wish to be cut free from their sins—these can surely trust in God for forgiveness. One who cannot trust God for forgiveness has no right to trust him for any­ thing else. Then the “ righteous,” as the Psalm ist calls them, have a right to trust in God. If that word means only the perfectly and altogether good people, it would leave all of us out. But in the light of tb« Bible as a whole, the righteous are those whose dominant de­ sire is to love and serve God. Then: service is imperfect, their tove is far from perfect, and no man is without sin. But if you can say with Peter, “Lord, thou know- est that I love thee,” then you have a right to trust in God. Also the broken-hearted can safely trust in him . Whoever else m ay break your heart, God w ill not. He is the great Mender of hearts. For the lit­ tle sorrows there may be lesser comforters: but the real heart­ breaks only God can cure.4> • • Why Trust God? pSA LM 37 gives one answer: The ^ opposite of trust is worry, and worry never did any good at all. Worry eats into the mind, casts no light, gives no strength, solves no problems, worry makes any trouble worse. Then the writer of Psalm 30 gives another reason for trust: he had tried it. If trust in God were simply a doctrine of theology or a theory of preachers, not many peo­ ple would take it seriously. Trust is really passed on by a kind of contagion from heart to heart. If there »re not more people who know what trust means, it is because those who have known have kept it too niuch to themselves. It would be a wonderful stimulus to most churches to have a little “cell” of people who would really agree to trust God every day.* • • When to Trust in God Q N e of Dicken’s famous charac- ters used to make a great point of being cheerful under the most un-cheerful circumstances. Anybody can be jolly when every­thing is lovely, he said. There’s no credit in not worrying when there’s nothing to worry about. Although the writers of the Bible, one and all, trusted in God, not one had an easy life. Read Psalm 46, for example; it gives a picture of a world much like ours of today, shaken to its foundations, torn by wars, a deso­late, discouraged world. If it made sense to trust only under bright skies, religion would have perished long ago,» * • For W hat Shall We Trust God? M O ONE PSALM puts the whole truth in one nutshell. If you read Psalm 91, for example, by it­ self, it would seem to prove that it you trust in God you w ill never die a violent death, nor an early one; but too many saints (and indeed our Lord himself) had died early and violent deaths, for us to take Psalm 91 in that way. Trusting in God does not mean he w ill give us long life. It means he vrill give us strength to m atch our days. It does mean he w ill give us all we need. It does not mean we shall be shielded from troub­les. It does mean he w ill save ns from tronbles greater than we can bear. It does not mean that in this life we shall be wholly free from burdens or from pain; It does mean we shall have strength in our souls (Ps. 138:3). Which is the greater thing—to be a weakling wearied by a straw’s weight, or to be one of God’s ath­ letes, able to bear the worst the world can pile on? (Copyright the.

Britain Cliarges Belgians Witli Eating Work Horses LONDON.—Despite Belgian im­porters’ guarantees, the 2,000 Brit­ ish horses shipped there annually practically all are slaughtered for food, instead of being worked as agreed, Arthur W. Moss, of the Royal Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Anim als, charged. “ The meat is processed and mostly sold in the form of Ant­werp sausages,” he said, after re­ turning from Belgium. “Im m ediately the horses on my ship were disembarked, they were branded on the neck with a hot iron and a hole was punched in the right ear to insert a number peg.

JULY 27.1949 Tin In Short Snpidy The world shortage of tin is so critical that it would continue for «t least another year even without the stockpiling programs now in bperation in the ITnited States and abroad, Walton S. Smith, vice-pres­ ident of the Metal & Thermit Cor- , poration, New York, declared at the 115th national meeting of the American CSiemical society. World production of tin is expected to reach 170,000 tons this year and190,000 tons' in 1950, while world demand Is estimated at 190,000 tons, he said. I Cut Farm Costs Cost-cutting machinery produced by American factories since the war is helping farmers keep costs down this spring. Combines, post­ hole diggers, hydratilic scoops, m ilking machines, special har­ vesters, and many electrical ma­chines are reducing the need for high-priced help. O n e Kansas farmer harvests and chops green sorgo with a machine that cost $2,000 but saves hiring five men at $8 each per day. Another reclaimed six acres of swamp land, worth $200 an acre, with a digger that cost $475. Farm er Invents Rock Picker Anton J. Jochim , an ambitious young farm er of Inverness, Mont., has invented a rock picker which he claims w ill handle anything from mere pebbles to boulders weighing 300 pounds, according'to National Patent council. The m a­chine is 122 by 9 ft. and weighs 2,200 pounds. Bed and dump box are mounted on t\vo sets of dual wheels in the rear and a single wheel in front. Hitched to a tractor, the picker covers an eight-foot swath with tines four feet long. Uncle Sam Says Jul)’ 4 is the da)< When we as a na­tion celebrate Independence.
