Plural Marriages Of Utah Mormons Are Upheld By Defending Attorney Washington, Nov. Sfli.B The supreme court today was told by an attorney defending nine Utah citizens that if plural marriage is held to be prostitu tion and debauchery, it will cast aspersion on the "blood of half the people of Utah Holding up a Mormon Bible for the justices to see, the attor ney Claude T. Barnes, declar ed: "By no strength of the imag ination can you apply the white slave act to the actions of these peoole." Barnes argued on behalf of eight men and one woman who are members of a Mormon fun damentalist cult which believes in plural or "celestial marriage." The group was convicted in the U. S. district court for Utah under the Mann act and the Lindberg kidnaping law. The supreme court agreed to review the convictions after they were upheld by the 10th circuit court of anneals. Harold Judson. acting U. S. solicitor general, asserted that the plural marriage situation had become a "national scanaai with which Utah was unable to cooe. He Insisted that only about two per cent of the Mormon faith had engaged in the prac tice of plural marriage and that the fundamentalist cult was the only branch which believed in more than one marriage at a time.

When It's a smiling and a gracious day soft and sunny and color-filled it's easy to feel on top of the world. But when frowning skies glower at a gray world, it's no trick at all to feel down in the dumps. Yes, sir everyone reflects the world around him. Every one likes smiling skies . . . smil ing people. ..smiling surround ings. That's why we have pro duced at our El Segundo Refin ery a machine shop that is more than a mechanical marvel. It's a workshop with a built-in-smile. And practically, forsooth, in technicolor! Color dynamics is the ex perts' term for the way we've used soft and pleasing shades. They're just as pretty as any thing you see through rose colored glasses and much more varied. Everywhere are colors that rest the eye and soothe the spirit thereby pro moting cheerfulness . . . health . . vigor . . . joy-of-living. They take the irk out of work. And color accents are used to promote safety. Mobile units are decked in bright colors that catch the eye. It's the modern development of color in a safety role first assigned it when red came to mean "Stop-Danger!" and green first said" Go Ahead." The bullt-ln-smlle of color dynamics is partly the outcome of wartime lessons in camou flage turned inside out. In seeking to fool the eye, re searchers learned many ways to please it. So some things about this progressive step are very new. Not new, however, is the desire it expresses our desire always to show progress on be half of our people.

Global Jaunt In Small Sailboat London U.P.) After a long struggle with the authorities to get the necessary permits to leave England, Hans De Meiss Teufenn, a 34-year-old Swiss, has started out alone in his 23-foot sailboat, "Speranza," on a voy age which he hopes will take him around the world. However, Teufenn was allow ed to take only $40 out of the country, and to supplement this he will write articles and photo graph scenes during the voyoge. He plans to go, without petrol, from Southampton to Lisbon on a wide tack out into the Atlan tic, then to Casablanca and the Canary islands and from there to the West Indies. He expects the last part to be the real test. From the West Indies, Teufenn would like to go to New York, then try the hazardous trip around the Horn. During the voyage the "Specranza" will fly the Swiss flag. His yacht has sleeping accom modations for three, but Teufenn prefers to sail alone. A "Ber muda Rig" keeps his boat on the course while he sleeps. Blue zircons are produced by heat treatment of colorless stones. done, and that's that!"

MONTGOMERY WARD TELEPHONE 5444 Returns to Georgia (Acmm Telephoto) New-Car Drivers Cause of Hike In California Wrecks Sacramento, Cal. (U.R) It isn't the worn-out jalopy that is causing a postwar increase in California traffic accidents, but the driver of the late model car who is "lulled into a feeling of security," state motor vehicle officials believe. The Department of Motor Vehicles says that replacement of cars worn out by wartime driving apparently will not cut down accidents because statis tics show that the majority of cars Involved In accidents are late models. "It appears," the department said, "that the drivers of defec tive cars drive carefully, and therefore slowly to compensate for whatever defects are pres ent. It is the driver of the new car, stimulated by the smooth ness and ease of operation, and lulled into a feeling of security by the excellence of its condi tion, who is most likely to over reach himself and precipitate an accident. "The rule still holds that the defects which cause accidents are in the drivers rather than in the cars."
