Eight Years of Clothing i Rationing in Britain Ends LONDON, Feb. 1. (JVU- Brit ain ended eight years of clothing rationing today Effective now, any Briton with the money can go into any store and buy a suit of clothes, his wife a dress. And for the first time since Jan. 1, 1940, he won't have to give 26 clothing coupons for the suit, 18 for his wife's dress. African,. Asian Areas Offered In Plan to Help Backward Countries By DEWITT MACKENZIE Associated Press Foreign Affairs Analyst Imaginations havs been stirred on both sides of the Atlantic by President Truman's project of raising living standards in backward countries and so promoting political improvements. The enthusiasm with which Britain has seized on Ihe idea bespeaks success. Already the vast British areas of Africa and Asia have been offered for this historic experiment. Other na tions may be exected to join. Meantime in Washington no time is being lost in devising means to implement the proposal. The chief executive has asked Secretary of State Acheson to work out preliminary plans. So the idea has had an auspi cious launching. Indeed, there is some fear it lias been too aus picious in that it may encourage exaggerated hopes. It's true that the potentialities seem almost limitless. However, one thing the world must get clearly in mind: This is a long term project. It isn't a matter of months but of years many years if it ks carried to a logical conclusion. Would Attract Capital Here it should be repeated that Mr. Truman's project contem plates attracting the investment of very great reservoirs of pri vate capital which are said to be available. It is believed this capi tal can be brought into use if for eign nations create conditions under which the investors can employ their money "fairly." The possibilities in Africa are THERE'S A JOB NEW METHOD TT Wf NEW METHOD CLEANERS There IS a difference Free Pickup and Delivery Phone 1008-R Our Flex-Form Machine reshapes each dress according to original mepsurements after each cleaning.

Douglas Across from Courthouse Big Jim Ain't Going to Sell Out To 'Got Rocks,1 Alabama Governor Vows By HAL BOYLE MONTGOMERY, Ala. UP) A boisterous, gusty giant of the earth has set this cradle of the Confederacy rocking. Two years after they put him into the governor's chair on a tidal wave of votes, Alabi.ma folks still don't know what to make of Big Jim Folsom. Some think he is a dangerous demagogue. Some dismiss him as an overgrown county clown on a political spree, whose an tics Jolt the fame of fair Ala bama. Others regard him as a kind of Twentieth-Century Andy Jackson, raised up by the people to save them from the "Got Rocks" the financial masters. As of now, Big Jim perhaps doesn't quite fit any of these pigeon-holes. But any compari son with Andrew Jackson flat ters him tremendously. "My hero is Andy Jackson past- present and future," he said. "And I believe like he did. Andy said, 'to the victor belong the spoils.' What he meant by that was 'to the people belong the victory.' "If he had just meant that the victor grabbed the spoils, Andy would have sold out himself to the 'Got Rocks.' Well, he didn't sell out. And Big Jim ain't going to either." The 6-foot-8-inch: 265-pound gov ernor is the most laughed at, talked about man in the South today. What'd you think of him." peo ple here ask when you say you've met him. And they laugh as they ask that is, the educated people do. What they mean is: "Isn't he about the crudest thing you ever saw in a gover nor's chair?" Well, he probably is. He knows he isn't going to hold thi. com mon man's vote down here by developing a Harvard accent. Personally Likeable Even those who have a strong distaste for Folson. find it hard to dislike him p-: tonally. He Is as hearty, friendly, and winning as an overgrown puppy. But he's a pretty wise old dog politically at 40. He has tl demaogue's gift of stirring up the people. He won office by going around the countryside with a cornshuck mop and a pail of suds prom- j sjnR l0 ciPan up "the scheming mills in the State Capitol." He financed his campaign by pass ing the suds bucket for the peo ple's half dollar and he got them, lie also got more votes than any governor in Alabama's history. Big Jim h?s avoided one tactic sometimes employed by Southern Immense, but much expensive spade-work is necessary. Among other things great stretches of railroads must be built, and Eng land has neither the money nor the equipment. This is polnied lo as one example where private capital, presumably safeguarded by governments, would fit into the picture. The Indian peninsula, housing the big dominions of India and Pakistan, is another area which Is in pressing need of develop ment. The maiority of lis popu lation of some 400.000.000 is heav ily underprivileged. Naturally the evil eye of Communism is fas tened on this strategic area. Here again the Industrial and agricultural potentialities are far reaching. So the story goes around 'he globe. As previously remarked, the first step is to make an exact survey of possibilities. WAL! PAPER- 200 Patterns 18c to $1.20 Page Lumber & Fuel 164 E. 2nd Ave. S. Phone 242 L demagogues the setting of race against race, white man against black. Being governor hasn't gone to his head in the least. He is too smart for that. "When mv term's over," said Big Jim, "Vlt go right back to my own little job insurance. I neve, made more in my life than I do now S6.000. And I'll Just be satisfied to go back and make an ordinary living again." A lot of politicnns and busi ness leaders wish he wuld. But they know that Big Jim is likely to be a power in politics for a long time to come. The people want security, said Jim. "But first, and above all, the people want to do what's right." He doesn t feel the Got Rocks do. Dr. J. C. Palmer Attends Course in Neurology Dr. John C.

FISHER FLOURING MILLS COMPANY, SEATTLE Tues., Feb. 1, 1949 The Newt-Review, Roseburg, Ore.' 3 Mother Escapes Her Fiery Home, Bears 8th Child TROY. Pa.. Feb. 1-4P) Nine- year-old Laverne Finnerty raced into a flame-swept farmhouse and pushed three brothers to safety through a first floor win dow. But lie couldn't reach an other brother and sister who died in the blaze. Nine children and three adults were asleep in the two-story house at nearby Columbia Cross Roads when fire of an unknown origin broke out before dawn Sunday. Gordon Finnerty, Laverne's uncfe, was awakened by the smoke. He roused his wife. Snatching her 10-monthold daughter in her arms, Mrs. Fin nerty ran barefoot downstairs through a wall of fire.The baby was unscathed but Mrs. Finnerty was singed all over her body. Her husband, holding a 4-year-old daughter, tried to fol low her. The stall's collapsed. Then he ran to a window. The flooring gave way beneath him and he and his daughter leaned to safely. Downstairs, George Finnerty awoke and hustled Laverne ont of his seven children at the house : out the front door. But Laverne heard his brother and sisteis' screaming for help. He ran back into the fierv house and pushed Gordon, 3; Parker, 7; and Marshall, 8, out through a window. His aunt ie turned to help Laverne's 5-yenr-1 old sister, Janet, to safety. i Neither of them could reach Larry, 1, and Eleanor, 4. Their bodies were recovecrd hours later. Meanwhile Laverne's mother j was sleeping at the Troy Hos- j pltal. She had just given birth to her eighth child.
