t Algeria Terrorisis Cut Underground Telephone Cable Algiers, Algeria (U.R) Ter rorist saboteurs cut the under ground cable which carries all telephone and telegraph traffic between Algeria and Morocco parly today, cutting off com munications between the two most important parts of French North Africa. The cable was severed in the department of Oran between Marnia .and Turenne, near the Moroccan border. Police said it was "unquestionably" an act of sabotage. -Newspapers Seised At the same time police seized the entire press run of the news paper Alger Republican (Algiers Republican) which lists itself as "independent." No immediate explanation was made. The cable-cutting was by far ' the most serious act of sabotage committed in the outburst of na tionalist violence in Algeria., It indicated organizers of the up rising were not striking in hap hazard fashion. In the embattled Aures Moun tains of southeastern Algeria, ter rorists consistently have chap- ; ped down telephone poles as fast as they were replaced. French authorities announced the arrest of 196 persons Sun day, including 111 in the eastern department of Constantine, near est the fighting, 54 in the Algiers department and 31 in Oran. Picture of Common Fly On Stamps Requested Lincoln Neb. U.PJ ' A re quest to picture the common . house fly on postage stamps has been made to the federal gov ernment, according to Dr. Ros coeHill... ... . ? Hill, chairman of the entomol ogy department at the Univer sity oi xMeorassa, said such a stamp was proposed last Novem ber and the petition was renewed , in February. The stamp was re quested by the centennial com memoration committee of the profession of entomology. Purpose of the stamp, Hill said, is to dramatize the national campaign against insect pests not to honor the fly. : A precedent for such an Issue was cited in the 1939 mosquito postal tax stamp of Mexico.

A young man writes: : (Q) "I am 30 years old a bachelor, and live at home. I ' give - my mother more than half of what I earn for my room and board. I don't object ' , to this, but I do object to the way she treats me. She is , always finding- fault and - criticizing everything I do. My ' brothers and sisters are also a i problem. They .'. are . always wanting to borrow money or ' asking me to do .things ; for them. I would like 10 live else where but I know my mother expects me to stay - at home and help with expenses. What would you advise me to do? (A) In fairness to your mother, I think you should have a heart-to-heart talk with her about the way she treats you. Explain that you would like to continue to live with her because you realize she. needs your financial help. ' Make it clear, however, that she has made life unpleasant for you and that you do not feel you are being fair to yourself in remaining in such ad e n v ironment. She : may not realize how critical she is. Then have similar "talks with your brothers and sisters. So long ' as you all live under the same roof, It is logical for them to expect you to co operate in some of the work and problems that face every famliy. Borrowing money, however, is a different story. In an; emergency, I am sure you would be willing to help them out. However, if they bor row because they live beyond By ELIZABETH HURLOCK. PH.D. their incomes, you are under no obligation. Brothers and sisters often do not take the problem of repaying a loan as seriously as' they should. If you can make no headway in bringing about a more har monious atmosphere in your home, then you would certainly be justified in finding another place to live. You could still do something , to help your mother, but you would have the peace and quiet your, present home does not give you. V (Copyright 1954, General Features Corp.) Dr..

United Press Correspondent ' ; believe Liberace fans will not be disappointed in. his film, .be cause, for one thing, the idea for. the picture came from 'the pianist himself. ... . ... ... . Studios in- Pursuit . ' "Every studio was after him but they hadn't come up with a story he liked," Wallace .ex plained. "He didn't want to be kidded in a movie, and he didn't want to do his life story. He thought that would leave him with nothing more to do in pic tures, and he's interested in act ing as a career. He wanted a challenging role." The pearly-toothed TV s t a r suggested playing a . musician who is becoming deaf, a la Bee' tnovan. Wallace wrote this into a modern story of a lonely, nearly deaf pianist who watches people pass his Central Park apartment window in New York. He becomes "involved in their lives" and helps them solve their problems through his pi ano playing, in the manner of Jimmy Stewart's window peep ing: in "Rear Window." ' Courage for Operation "He gets the courage to face an operation, his. hearing is saved and at the end he plays in Carnegie Hall," the writer concluded. ; - w This picture's tentative - title is, "Sincerely Yours." Besides performing the class ics, Liberace also will play boo gie-woogie and indulge in some light comedy. Brother George, a mainstay on the Liberace TV program, will be absent from the movie cast.
