In an atdress delivered Tnes day noon before the Salem Kiwan is club. Scientists have aid that a frown takes SO times as much fa cial energy as a laugh. Shanks stated in urging that laughs were a positive value to health. "Comic strips in the daily news- well-being of the public principal J ly because they give the public some let down from its cares, declared the speaker.

The ambassador contended Ital ian goods constituted less than two. percent of the aggregate American imports and that such a small per centage would "hardly Justify any claim of unbearable competition."
