The committee adopted a pro vision by Rep. Mason (R-IU) ex empting the first $1,200 of annual retirement income from personal Income taxes. The exemption would apply to all types of income whether from oensions, dividends, rents, annui ties, or other investments. And it would apply regardless of age to all retired workers, even those be low 65. It would take effect with the 1954 tax bill which falls due in early 1955. The plan was approved as part of a general revision of tax laws. Presumably it would boost the to tal annual tax reductions under the oroeram from about two bil lion dollars, as estimated by the Treasury, to about $2,300,000,000, Marilyn Wears Cocktail Dress On Troops' Tour WESTERN FRONT.

Admiral Carney Says U. S. Must Be Ready For Any War The city of Carthaffe was found ed by the Phoenicians around 813 B.C. and was first destroyed by the Romans in 146 B.C. NEWPORT, R.I. (i) Adm. Rebert B. Carney advocates the United States must be readv regardless of whether another war is fought with nuclear bombs or bamboo spears. "I cannot, nor can anyone else, forecast the blueprint for an ulti mate showdown of the nations now in ideological conflict," said Car ney, the Navy's top officer and member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, in an address for the Naval War College. He voicid certainty of only one thing the expanding military strength of Russia, including what he said was the unobtrusive emergence of the Soviet Union "as the second strongest naval power in terms of tho number of ships in commission, second oniy to the United States." As some other officials of the Navy and Army have done, Car ney noted a possibility that anoth er war could be without use of atomic weapons. He said: "What sort of war do we have In mind? If we are honest with our selves, we will acknowledge that there are big wars, little wars; atomic wars and perhaps non atomic wars. What can we ex pect?. . . "If the answer is 'atoms!" that is one thing. Were the criterion to be 'no atoms!" we are militarily right back where we started. . . "It is entirely conceivable that we might see a limited use of atomic weapons. We might see, and probably will see, a continua tion of tiie so-called brush fires. Or we might see, as has so far been the case with chemical bac teriological warfare, a' nuclear stalemate with both sides refrain ing for fear of retaliation. , "Confronted with great uncer tainty in this respect, I see no alternative but to hedge our stra tegic bets, ready to rush into tho future, but also prepared to meet,' and rely on, the methods of the recent past. . . , "Regardless of how the war Is fought, of one thing I am certain. It will end on the ground, political ly and economically even if not by frontal assault.

E xpect It to Be Copied ! The beautiful new 1954 Cadillac is now in our showroom and this is an automobile that every American motorist should see . . . and inspect . . . and drive! They should do this, first of all, because it will give them a better understanding of the things by which to judge the world's motor cars. And they should do this, too, because it will give them a revealing glimpse into the future of automotive design. For it can be said, with the full support of historic precedent, that much of today's Cadillac will find its way into the cars of tomorrow. Cadillac's sweeping new lines, its new proportions of glass and steel, and its many superlative new details of design will unquestionably have a profound influence on automotive stylists the world over. The new roominess of Cadillac's interiors, the new beauty of its appointments, and the new richness of its fabrics and leathers will give the industry completely new standards of comfort and luxury. And Cadillac's great new power and responsiveness, its wonderful new handling ease and its incredible smoothness of oper ation are certain to serve as engineering guideposts for years to come. But imitation is one thing duplication another. And no amount of imitation could ever produce Cadillac's happy combination of brilliant styling, extraordinary luxury and magnificent performance. Nor could it bring to another motor car Cadillac's unprecedented acceptance among the world's motorists ... the feeling of pride that comes to the man who sits behind its wheel ... or its reputation as the Standard of the World. Thise are Cadillac "exclusives" hard won through decades of leadership, and through undeviating adherence to the highest ideals of automotive production. 1 We repeat you ought to come in and see the new 1954 Cadillac. For it is Cadillac's annual report to the nation on the progress of American motor car design and the news has never been so exciting! You'll be most welcome at any time. ROSEBURG MOTOR CO.
