As We Live
DON'T LET YOUR PALS
CHASE HIM FOR YOU
One of the mistaken kind
nesses in life is for a girl's
friends to try to further her ro
mance by telling a boy how she
feels about him. That is what is
causing trouble for the 15-year-
old girl who wrote:
Q "About three years ago,
I mat a very nica boy. Ha Jilt
ed ma for daler. many times
but I was not allowed to go.
I axplainad this to him, ha
understood and was very nica.
Now I am allowed to go out
In a group but ha navar asks
ma. My friends tell him I still
Ilka him but ba navar says
anything to that. Do you think
' it will turn him against ma
whan friends tell him that I
lika him? Is there anything
' I can do to win him back?"
(A) If you want this boy to
like you, for heaven's sake tell
your friends to stop trying to
match -make
for you. Noth-
ing will . turn
a boy away
from a girl
more quickly
than that. I
am sure they
mean well and
thought of
breaking you
their tactics
are bad.
No boy likes to hear second
ban-asses him and it makes him
mad to think a girl has been
talking about him behind his
back. Naturally he assumes
that you have been doing this
or how would your friends
know how you feel about him?
van aiicnitr yuui
friends, you will have won the
first round. Then take the ag
grcssive approach and invite
him to do something with you.
That will not be a case of
"chasing him" as you really
owe him an Invitation after the
number of times he invited you
out.
Invite Him To Party
You could invite him to
school party, to be your escort
at a party one of your friends
is giving, or you could organize
a party or picnic of your friends
and invite him with the rest of
the group. Be especially nice
and attentive, but don't embar-

ra?s him with overattention.
Because this boy liked you
three years ago is no guarantee
that he has any special Interest
in you today. Boys in the early
teens are fickle, just as girls
are. They go from one girl-to
another. Don't take this matter
too seriously. If he shows no
further interest in you, let it go
at that. There are plenty of oth
er boys. Don't eat your heart
out over one.
If you have a personal prob
lem, write Elisabeth Hurlock in

Hopes Dim for Deeper
Columbia River Channel
Astoria U.PJ Hopes that the
channel entrance to the Colum
bia river would be deepened
soon were dimmer
after the Columbia River Bar
Pilots' association received word
from Rep. Homer Angell that no
congressional hearings are sched
uled on the proposal.
Rep. Angell wrote to Capt
Cli-rence Ash that, while no
hearings are scheduled on the
proposal to deepen the bar from
40 feet to 48 feet, he has two
resolutions before the House
rivers and harbors subcommit
tee calling for further investiga
tion of the river entrance by
Army engineers.
British Food Subsidy Cut
To Offset Higher Benefits
London (U.PJ Britain's in
creased social benefits are to
cost the national exchequer an
additional 125,000,000 pounds a
year.
The cost, however, will be off
set by the cut in government
food subsidies announced at the
last budget,
The national insurance minis
ter, Osbert Peake, announcing
the step in Parliament, revealed
that family allowances (in
creased from five shillings to
eight shillings for every child
after the first) will take 37,000
000 pounds; Insurance benefits
and retirement pensions will cost
a further 63.000,000 and na
tional assistance 25,000,000
pounds,
The new retirement pensions
and increased family allowances
will start in September this
year. Other benefits will take
effect toward the end of July.
The cut in food subsidies an
nounced by Chancellor of the
Exchequer R. A. Butler In his
budget is 160,000,000 pounds. It
is to ease the burden on the
lower Income groups caused by
the food subsidies cut that the
Increased social benefits are to
be introduced.
Payments Larger
In addition to the cut in food
subsidies, Britain's wage earn
ers are to pay higher national
insurance contributions. At pres
ent, an adult male pays S shil
lings and a penny and his em
ployer pays four shillings and
fourpence weekly.
As from October, the worker
and the employer each will pay
an additional eight pence, bring
ing the total weekly contribution
to the exchequer to 10 shillings
and nine pence.
Contributions by women and
Juvenile workers who do not
pay as much as an adult man
will rise proportionately.
Before the new schemes can
become law, however, a bill will
have to be approved by Parlia
ment. The new benefits include na
tional Insurance (which em
braces unemployment, sickness,
widow and retirement pensions),
at present 24 shillings a week
for a single man and 42 shillings
for a married man. These are to
be raised to 32 shillings and six
pence and 54 shillings respec
tively.
War Payments Up
One hundred per cent disable
ment war pensions are to go up
from 45 shillings to 5S shillings
a week.
One example in the new na
tional assistance scales Is that of
a married couple with three chil
dren. Under the present scale
their income. Including family
allowances, is four pounds six-
teen shillings and sixpence a
week. Under the proposed new
rates their income would be five
pounds, eleven shillings and six
pence.
Another example is that for a
blind person whose rate would
go up from its present three
pounds, five shillings to the new
three pounds, 17 shillings.
Order for Silence
Goes Unheeded
Louisville, Ky. (UP.) The
decorum of the police court was
disrupted when Judge David C.
Cate announced that no disturb
ances would be allowed.
This is what happened after
the judges warning:
A defendant started talking to
a companion in the front row
and was fined $4 by Judge
Cates.
A court hanger-on dropped
half-pint bottle of whiskey.
Repairmen started hammering
on the floor above the court
room and the Judge had to ad
journ court until baliffs order
the noise stopped.
After things were back to nor
mal, Cates admonished the man
who dropped the bottle.
Many New Yorkers call the
lower Hudson the North River
without knowing why. The name
is a relic of Dutch ralnninl tima
when the Delaware, at the other
end or New Netherland, was
the South river.

UNITED
Cities Annexing
Outlying Territory j
Chicago 0J.B More cities
are annexing outlying territory,
according to the International
City Managers' Association.
The most recent big city to ex
tend its limits is Birmingham,
Ala. It annexed 13.6 square
miles.
Residents of a 17-square mile
area adjacent to Seattle approv
ed annexation early this year.
The move will not be accepted
by the Seattle city council until
January, 1952, because more
time is needed to plan municip
al services for such a large area.
The City Plan Commission of
Indianapolis has adopted a re
port urging annexation of near
ly 25 square miles during the
next 10 years. A plan is being
worked out providing for im
mediate annexation of 9.5
quares miles.
In Norfolk, Va., plans are be
ing made for annexation of
15.76 square miles, which would
make the city the largest in Vir
ginia, both in area and popula
tion. At Independence, Mo., an or
dinance was proposed calling
for a special election to decide
on annexing 24.9 square miles.
The action followed a move by
Kansas City to bring in 25.02
square miles.
Last year, 382 cities of more
than 5.000 population annexed
outlying territory.
