Even if the police scowled or glowered on auto speeders, it would not slow them down. The problem requires something more bind ing, and diabolical than making faces at the traffic violators. e e e An upstate expert figures the football team "that uses psychol ogy effectively" will defeat the Black Tornado. To this theory, civic patriots hereabouts, disa gree most heartily. They argue the only way to beat the Black Tornado, Is to get more touch downs than they do. e e e The atomic bomb continues an international paln-ln-the-neck to statesmen of the world. There seems nothing to do about it all, except to ruthlessly resort to the use of virtually extinct common sense, even it is favored by for mer President Herbert Hoover. 99- Discontented Germans In the American and British zones of occupation show signs of causing trouble the coming winter, due to lack of food and fuel. How ever, they are insufficiently fam ished and chilled to prevent them from Indulging in some Teutonic hellraislng. The realis tic Russians exhibit no chicken heartcdness in suppressing out breaks of Nazi impudence. They march members of the late super-race off to the Volga and tho Urals, to toll repairing havoc the wreaked, while invading. a e a LITTLE MISS HUFFY (Pendleton East Oregonlan) "She simply ran away from her cabin at the City Auto Park Tuesday night, because she was angry at her mother for asking her to get an arm ful of wood and also because she said she didn't like her .mother's tone of voice when she called to her." a e e Whiskey interests of the land will hold a three days conven tion in Chicago starting tomor row. No Porto Rico rum or OLCC blends and Scotch will be swigged at the session. a a a It is now charged the Chinese and British at home and In Java, are using lend-lease guns to shoot democracy Into their reb els. This is not included In the "four freedoms." a a e Pear tycoons of the valley lan guished In bed until noon, and lolled around their domiciles all day yesterday. It was the first Sunday since the sap started in the orchards last March, they have been able to so luxuriate. a a a NATURE IS GRAND (S. C. Monitor) ' "Flowers, all of themselves, move softly and noiselessly to gether In vases at night, so that their petals become en tangled. They huddle and clus ter in a clump, even though they have been separated at sundown." a a e A slaughtered hog, lashed to thu front fender of an ancient vehicle, ala deer, clattered down Sixth street late yesterday. astounding pedestrians. It was a most vulgar display of prosper ity, and the pork shortage. a a e MORE JAP TREACHERY "Yokohama A pretty Jap anese girl shouting "HI, Hi" and waving her arms brought an American jeep to a quick stop. The GI driver grinned agreeably when she indicated she'd be back If he'd wait. In a few minutes she reap peared with an old woman and a batch of children. All climbed into the Jeep except the pretty girl, 'Who disappeared." Press Monday. Not. S, 1948 Editorial Correspondence New York City, Oct. 31 One could write a book about the Herald-Tribune "Forum" presided over by Mrs. Ogden RUd, daughter-in-law of the late Whitelaw Reid "gay ninety" U. S. ambassador to the court of St. James, and N. Y. Journalistic tycoon. The forum dealt generally with the problem of American responsi bility during the post-war period. There were scores of speakers on a variety of subjects with reports on Soviet Russia leading them all In the time allotted and the interest shown. e a e a e . The Russian Ideological problem in a nut-shell was summed up by a husky and aggressive Russian girl, Masha Scott, the bride of John Scott, Russian correspondent for "Time" and "Life" in Europe. . Mrs. Scott, we would say, well typified young Russia today, strong, self-confident, assertive and a bit quite a bit, scornful of the "bourgeoisie world," especially America. Striding up to the "mike" like a Slavic Joan of Arc, leading her followers against the citadel of decadent capitalism, she wasted no time in telling her audience and the radio world, what she thought of the U. S. A. In the first place, she just couldn't and can't understand the American love for money, money-mad was the Idea she stressed, money is all and all is money, in the land of the free and the home of the brave. Why, what do you think her mother-in-law did? Rebuked her for spending all her money at least all John had given her, in one day, saying she should not have been so hasty but should have saved some for a rainy day. A rainy day, INDEED! Why, in Russia beautiful communistic Russia, one would never hear that phrase, for in Russia no one thinks of saving money. Why should they? There Is no need for it, no fear of being with out it. For there is always work. . And if one doesn't want to work there is non-employment Insurance. And if one is old and can't work there Is a permanent pension to keep one in food and clothes, tobacco and vodka, or whatever one desires. And if a girl is young and wants a baby, why that is easy too, with all expenses paid by the state, a four months' vacation with pay, free milk, free day nurseries, free whatever you need, in cluding diapersi Ah, Russia is the ... That is what Russia did for Masha, that is what Russia does for everyone. . So why save up money for that silly "rainy day." There is plenty of rain, and snow, in Russia, but no rain from the standpoint of deprivation or poverty. Therefore, when John DEAR allowance why SHOULDN'T she cartons of cigarettes, three pair make a payment on the piano? So few things one could buy EVERYTHING, and that "sour-puss" of a mother-in-law had the nerve to chide her and suggest she might be wise to save up for a "rainy day." Rainy day indeed! How can people care so much about anything as vulgar and superfluous as money! Those are not Masha's exact and incidently the audience, as a whole, fell for It like a ton of brick. Masha with her strong, resolute face, light blonde holr thrown back, and vitality fairly exuding from her muscular frame was the hit of the evening. And why shouldn't she be? Didn't the "good book" say money Is the root of all evil? And If that Is true then why not root society and go over bait - hook - and government, where everyone can work if one wishes, and if one doesn't, or can't, the government supplies the necessities of life anyway, so why save up for a rainy day, why worry? p a a e Well, answer that question and you answer the most moment ous question today and one that Is being asked, directly or In directly, pretty much all over the world. We frankly admit we can't answer it. We doubt If anyone can, YET, not even Masha. For after all in the test of any theory, political or otherwise. results are what count. And the final results of the Russian ex periment are not as yet known, and probably won't be for another decade or so, perhaps longer. It IS known, as Masha herself would no doubt testify, that you CAN'T buy what you want In country. It IS known the standard of than that in this country, abysmally lower, probably lower than In any other civilized country, certainly any other powerful coun try, In the world today. But in another 20 or 30 years lieve It will be, but only those SURE. But this we DO know: That day and (2) the desire not merely to have the bare necessities of life but something MORE this country would never have reached the point of development It has reached today, and we doubt very much if the things that Masha so wanted to buy and did buy would ever have been on the market here to obtain! Finally, we would advise Masha to go to Brentanos and pur chase a copy of Horatlp Alger's "Sink or Swim" In If we remem ber correctly the "Ragged Dick" series. We have forgotten the details but we remember the main theme which was that If a young to sink he HAD to swim; and If to work and save. There were no fairy godmothers then to help him out. S. Onus then, as now, did not have a full-time job but merely worked one day In the year. So it was up to Dick, sink or was the result? Instead of being supported by the government in his declining years Dick supported S00 workers and their families by the factory he established! After reading that book and go up to Columbia and take a course In economics. The result might we said MIGHT, convince her, that where the U. S. A. is concerned she doesn't know all them!

What taking it to heart Masha might the answers or even many of Asking Queries from clients. Q. Did Nostradamus predict the exact doy of the ending of World War On-?? A. That's what some of his biographers claim. They say he predicted it would end St. Mar tin's day, November 11. Q. What Is the origin of the term "The Yellow Press?" A. Around the turn of the century some reus papers urged a close watch be kept on the Japanese its having ambitions to dominate the world In general and the United States In particular. The Japs were re ferred to at this time, about 45 years ago, as "The yellow peril." Other newspapers ridiculed the idea of calling the Japs the "yel low peril." So they referred to the papers that did so as "The Yellow Press." Q. What is the oldest breed of dog? A. The grey hound. This breed is mentioned In the bible. Says She, "Perhaps women should re move their large hats In thea tres," writes a Californlan. "But why do some caddish males de maud that women remove their small hats? The other night a man practically ordered me to take my hat off. I told him It wasn't really a hat but a flower arrangement. But he persisted. So I took off what he called my hat and ruined my hair-do." Gallant Dog No doubt you read of that two-and-a-half-year-old Bis bee, Ariz., boy who, lost in some very wild country, was guarded all night by the dog who accom panied him. The story said: "The searchers knew of the danger of coyotes but counted on the dog to protect the child." How is that for an expression of confidence in dogs? The dog did protect the child against coyotes. I was also interested in the part of the story that said: "The dog is medium sized, of no particular breed." well, even if the pup lacked a pedigree he certainly proved he was all dog. Sandwich Ever hear of a 'Tine-eyed Guy Kibbe sandwich?" I didn t until a subscriber wrote me about it. In the film "Mary Jane's Pa1 there was a scene in which Kib be made a sandwich. First he took a piece of bread with a hole cut In the middle. Then he put this in butter In a frying pan. After which he dropped an egg over the hole In the bread and flopped the combination over. From this he made a sandwich. My informant says she tried it as soon as she got home. Now this which they called a "One eydd Guy Kibbce" is the family's most popular sandwich. I'm go ing to try to make one for my midnight supper. Mighty Sock In a recent match in England a player hit a cricket ball 525 feet. To give you an idea as to what a mighty sock this was your attention is called to fact that the distance from home plate to the center field fence In the Polo Grounds is 490 feet And the Polo Grounds center field fence is farther from the home plate than that of any other park in either major league. Please Note Note It is stated that "pre salted celery" will be grown. I won't care for it. How Is any farmer to know how much salt I wont with my celery. I like to spread my own. I also note it is claimed the three favorite vege tables of teen agers In the order named are: spinach, potatoes and peas. On that I will have to check. I never knew a teen ager who put spinach In the top spot. How about the teen agers around your house? News Behind The News By Paul Mallon Washington, Nov. 5 The day's news portrays increasing ly the perplexities of human ex istence ...

A gang of Hal loween marauders worked through my neighborhood with unusual zeal for destruction and, when detected and accosted by the citizens of my community, asserted their rights to destroy on Halloween; In fact, the citi zens melted away and the van dals were rather invited to maintain their rights. a e a PERSONALLY, I wanted to take their soap away from them on the ground that they could not possibly be wanting to use it to wash their faces, and I thought the possession of soap on Halloween showed conclu sively that they wished to rub cars and windows In a way which , would represent their personal signature of destruction permanently: They won. They kept their soap. They said it was their right. The citizens whose property had been damaged retired to their houses, obviously chasten ed by these youngsters with rights . . . The run of news in your paper and mine shows the same tendency of domination by youth over teachers, parents and even police authorities. Why Is tills? In my younger days I saw kids carving their in itials In the wrong places, gen erally In washrooms. They put obscene words there. Now they write these in soap on your front screen. Also what is wholly different, they assert their right to do It. Not only fit y iff' 1 iya, m '4 ' (v iR LlAVsUlta&Vill ROOFING BY EXPERT WORKERS Asbestos or Ahphalt Roofing for flat or steep roofs.

We seem real ly to need Russian domination and communism or fascism. a a a CACH Individual peculiarity of - the people is played upon by those who make it their business to do so (bus companies, so they will not furnish service; electric light companies, so . they will have the upper hand, and so on down the line of despicable little selfish Interests). Why, in my community the Baptists hate the Presbyterians, who in turn hate the Episcopal ians, who in the usual order hate the Catholics, and hates beyond these common ordinary distrusts are used by the controlling au thorities so that the people never win. The democrats hate the re publicans and vice versa. The shopkeepers hate the customers, etc. Practically everyone hates everyone else, for some reason or other. This is America on Its worst side. That I know, can understand and accept, but when I see morons, such as these children are, using such hates and other wise escaping common punish ment for misdeeds, rising above decency to impose their destruc tive will upon adults, indeed as serting a right to do so, I begin to wonder, as you all have, con fronted In one way or another with the same circumstances. Frankly I am wondering if appeals to reason are possible; if the democratic way will suf fice, whether we need a youth, draft and domination to make people believe, os you all do when you see Injustice imposed upon you. But when such doubts assail me, and I wish for a dictator who would really put vandalism In Its place and bury injustice in its moronic grave, I realize that what is wrong is that the forces of true democracy ere not working. They are asleep or down. . a e THE thing to do Is to assert de cency and maintain it. Dem ocracy docs not allow that morons shall rule. It is all a question of Influence. This is a crisis. It is time to assert good. Adults must not melt away in the face of child ish assertions of influence. If that kind of people run your community, get yourself an or ganization of decent citizens. The trouble Is not with de mocracy, but with the fact that decency Is not working, does not impose Its will, is not as sertive and belligerent, but is Inclined to retire in the face of danger. You must fight for right, or you will never get it. There must be no other ihmmhi In vnnr Imaeination. Do not permit schemers to use your likes and cusiiK.es. inmg umj of your own ultimate welfare. If you confront a force of evil, know that righteousness is stronger. TMe U n new world. Know your children, know your schools, know the people aoom ..,, Nnnr nprmit impositions upon your intelligence by any one. All that is nceaea is lor decent people to arise and assert themselves. Always there will be two In fluences in the world, the influ ence for good and for evil. This is not only Christian doctrine: it is apparent. The forces of good shall not submit to the forces of evil. Don't take it. You are an American. No American is ever cowed, i. forcer! to slink away to domination by morons, children and fools. Arise ana assert yourselves. That is all that is necessary to maintain that. RUEL ASSISTANT Chicago, Nov. 5 (U.PJ Base ball Commissioner A. B.
