Young Speeders Get
Handwriting Chore
SUFFOLK, Va. U.R Two
young Virginians had to work out
sentences imposed by Justice
Marshall Bowden. Instead of the
usual $90, fine for speeding or
reckless driving, the Judge fined
Lewis Belote, 20, and George
Salmon, 25, each $25, plus a chore
of twice coppying, In longhand, a
teenicide article in the July
Reader's Digest
To their mild protests that they
were not teen-agers the judge re
plied that the facts about auto
driving in the article made it
clear that persons up to 25 years
of age are, for the most part, in
the same bracket with headlong,
suicidal teen-agers when behind
the wheel of a car.

Jerries Want
Stronger Beer
HAMBURG, Germany 01.19
German brewmutert, faced with
a declining market at home and
abroad, are petitioning Allied
authorities for permission to put
some pre-war pep back into thelr
beer.
German beer has come a long
way from the watery brew turned
out Just after the war. Last au
tumn's improved grain supplies
made it possible t increase alco
holic strength to 75 per cent of
the pre-war brew. But Germans,
and foreigners, still are not drink
ing it In large quantities.
British zone brewery directors at
a meeting in Dortmund, found that
"German consumption of beer is
way below pre-war standard and
there is no hope of better business
in the near future.
The directors announced that
they were working at only 25 per
cent of capacity. They asked the
German economic council to re
lease another 350,000 tons of grain
to brew 350,000,000 gallons of
peace-time quality beer.
One thing besides the qquality
that keeps Germans from drinking
beer is the price. Pre-war a pint
cost the equivalent of three Amer
ican cents. Now it Is twenty. Beer
hall waiters no longer automatic
ally set a pint" before a newly-
arrived customer with the certain
ty that that's what he wants. Now
they wait until the customer or
ders one. .
Governor Back's
Free Indians
PHOENIX, Ariz. U Gov.
Dan E. Garvey has proposed that
the states take over supervision
of reservation Indians because it
is "high time they became citi
zens in the true sense of the
word."
Garvey, chief executive of the
state with the largest reservation
Indian population, said he favor
ed a bill proposed by the South
Dakota congressional delegation
to give the states physical control
of the reservations. But he said
he "would go even further."
He said states could operate the
reservations more efficiently and
for "considerably smaller appro
priations" than the federal gov
ernment, but that they could not
carry the financial burden of
supervision for "some time."
Garvey suggested that federal
appropriations be made directly
to the states and that the states
take over education, road con
struction, policing and other ad
ministrative problems of the
reservations.
He pointed out that the Navajo
and Hopl reservations were rich
in natural resources and that the
Indians would be able in time to
pay taxes like all citizens. Then,
he aaid, the states would assume

For Daughters of West
SAN JOSE, Cal. (U.R) Sweet
talking Mayor Fred Watson knows
how to make a hit with the la
dles. He was talking to about 1000
of the Native Daughters of the
Golden West when he pawed one
foot In the dirt and bellowed:
"You California women are the
most beautiful in the entire na
tion."
The girls just sat there and
beamed. And then Watson really
warmed up to his subject. He gave
them all a wink and said:
"I'm delighted, simply delighted
to find myself the only male in
this room with the doors closed!
The ladles like that, too. Then,
still giggling, they finally got down
to conference business.
