In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Get a load of this from Mos cow: Russia's industrial production level last year exceeded goals set for 1950 and PERSONAL INCOMES ROSE SHARPLY. Soviet workers earned, 12 per cent more in 1949 than in 1948. Peasants earned 14 per cent more. Russia's grain harvest totaled 7.6 billion pools which is equivalent to 4 la billion bushels. RUSSIA, you see, under the beneficent guidance of the big shots of the communist party, is eating high up on the hog. . pAGE our Harry.' It looks like the Politburo has been reading his messages on the State of the Union and the economic future of the United States under the aegis of the Fair Deal and is going to outbrag him or bust a hamestring. w HAT'S it all about? I wouldn't know, but when everything is lovely and the goose hangs high we're inclined to saw wood and say nothing. When we start boasting, it's often a sign that something is be ginning to slip.

IN New York a while back a wizened old character showed up with the claim that he is really Jesse James and has suc ceeded in getting himself a slug of publicity. He says the "Mr. Howard" that was shot in the back by Bob Ford was a ringer and not Jesse James at all and adds that he ought to know be cause he is Jesse and remembers it all quite clearly. The New York reporters have given the story quite a ride and I among other things have dug, up an old doggerel that once was familiarly known through Eugene Man Dies As Shed Roof Collapses Eugene, Ore., Jan. 20 (U.R) Herman Husen, about 60, died yesterday when a shed roof weighted down with wet snow collapsed on him while he was doing his chores at his home in Crow, 15 miles west of here. Husen's wife summoned help from neighbors and passing mot orists, but Husen was dead by the time help arrived. out the entire central Mississippi valley. It started off: "Oh the dirty little coward "He shot Mr. Howard "And laid Jesse James in his grave." It has been running through my head so persistently ever since that I think I'd like to do a job of shooting on the scribes that exhumed it from the dead past. Do fool jingles like that sometimes ring in your head un til they play hob with your normal thinking processes?
