MONDAY. 'APRIL 21. 1952 THE BEND BULLETIN. BEND. OREGON PAGE NINE Woman to Write Political Verse By BOB JAIN (United Proa Staff Correspondent)' ' CLEVELAND, O B Magda lene Ktihlman is a woman who doesn't .let polities' occupy her time, except in rnyme. The presidential elections this year stirred tne wz-year-old ex- school teacher and she took time off from her "complete service rhyming business" to dash off some sentiments on possible fu ture chief executives. The over all picture, she described this way: "You .will excuse me "'If I say they confuse me." Being an Ohioan, however, she prudently added: "I'll be tabbed as jplain daft If I don't vote for JTaft" The Ohio senator faded as Miss Kuhlman turned toward Minne sota and said: "I might say in passin' I kinua like Stassen." She warmed up on Eisenhow er and Warren to finish off the Republicans: "I'll go on a stride If they don't elect Ike! It's as plain as a lighthouse i Who belongs in D-wight House! suu, meres notmng I'd like more'n , ' To see Governor Warren - And his spouse ' " ; In that House. '-.' . And who will say that Honey bear Wouldn't be a knockout there?" The Democrats took just four lines in Miss Kuhlman's political panorama: "Oh, Mfe' would be clover With Estes Kefauver And Russia less scary Under Harry." She threw up her hands when ' asked' for a definite choice, and declared: . "I'd rather lie wittical Than political." , It is the men right at home. she thinks more of than politic ians. J or example: "With me You see, ;' , ' . The men who get top rating. Are the ones I am dating!" Miss Kuhlman began rhyming for a living five years ago when a serious illness forced her out of her job teaching in a Michigan high school. She has been tagged "The Bard of Avon Lake" after the suburb where she lives. Her work now ranges from song, lyric writing (her biggest item) to doggerel for political, anniversary and holiday events, with a liberal dash of prose .5, mg oi dooks, meses and couegi papers. . That takes about 60 hours of every week, With the rest of her time she edits and prints a week ' ly newspaper on dianetics and works on her new -dictionary for song-writers. . . "I'm up td 'A' in the dictionary now." she said. "It looks like a long project." SHEEP HAVE FIELD DAY ANDOVER.

Experts Believe Test of HBomb Will Be Success By JOSEPH L. MIXER . WASHINGTON, April 21 R This appears to be the year of the H-bomb. Weaponeers are confident that the country's first real H-bomb test, planned for next fall at Eni wetok, will be a success. So far there have been no pub lic announcements about the staee of H-bomb development. But one atomic Insider has told the United Press: ' '"Things are bubbling along in the whole area of H-bomb work. The activity is intense, and damn ed important things are happen ing. Tne ffcople should be made aware that they are-happening." Other sources have said the first test explosion of an H-bomb will be held in September at the atomic proving ground in the Pa cific. It will be a tremendous explos ion, if it works as well as inform ed sources believe It will. It will be a "bang" far bigger than the Atomic Energy ' Commission is' willing to set off at the continen tal proving ground near ias veg- as, Nev. Only relatively "small" atom ic exolosions are permitted there. The so-called "public" explosion scheduled in Nevada Tuesday win be of a "nominal" A-bomb rough- Gunhers Score Four 'Perfects' Four members of the Bend Trap Club were 'on the target" yesterday, in their weekly shoot on the grounds south of town, and turned in perfect scores. In the 25 x 25 class were Everett Rambo, Al Chittim, I.M. Wells and Roy Branton. Six members turned In scores of 24 out of 25. They were M. L. Stoddard, a marksman from Port land; Ed Mitchell, Walter How ard, C. L. Smith, Marshall Hunt and Lloyd Maslll. In the Handicap event, Elmer Whipple and I. N.

For years now there has been talk of a hydrogen "super bomb" 1,000 times more powerful than a "normal" A-bomb. Since the nominal A-bomb is the energy equivalent of more than 20,000 tons of TNT, the super bomb would be a 20,000,000-tonner. Such a weapon, exploded in the air over a city, would destroy practically everything in an area 10 miles across.

SHOP BY CATALOG IT'S EASY, ECONOMICAL la According to our accountants. Union Oil made a net profit during 1951 of $27,295,971. If this bookkeeping profit represented the com pany's actual "take" our 38,347 common share ownera would be overjoyed. But after paying dividends of $11,444,259, we actually ended up on the minus side of the ledger to the sum of $7,534,000 in working capital. 2. Hera's the reasons In 1951 we had to spend $62,421,000 for replacement of worn-out equip ment and oil properties and to enlarge our facili ties to meet the greatly increased demand In the West for petroleum products. This money came from three sources. 3. $40,281,000 of It came from the "depreci ation and depletion" allowance. (The sums a corporation sets aside each year to replace equipment and oil properties when they're worn ' out.) $14,606,000 of it was made up out of profits. 1 $7,534,000 of it was taken from working capital the "checking account" a business keeps on hand for day-to-day expenditures. 4. Wo obviously can't keep dipping into our working capital indefinitely and stay in business. For if we do we'll eventually run out of money to carry our receivables, inventories, etc, and pay our daily operating expenses. That's why something has to be done about a situation that affects "not only us but every U. S. corporation. 5. Briefly it Is thlsi The sums the tax collector allows you to set aside for depreciation and de pletion are based on what things cost when yon acquired them not what it costs to replace them today. Since these depreciation funds aren't ade quate to replace equipment and oil properties at today's prices, we have to make up the differ ence somewhere or go out of business. 6 On top of this, extremely heavy taxes on corporate earnings make it almost impossible to retain enough profits to make up the difference. So we have to take it from working capital. That's why we must have a tax policy that, will permit . corporations to earn enough for the replacement and expansion necessary to maintain the produc tivity and economic growth of the nation. .
