Thorn ton has ruled that automobile dealers who agree to make in itallment payments for custom ers who lose their jobs must com ply with general insurance laws s-The attorney general said the auto dealers were, in effect, sell ing insurance and so must sub mit to insurance regulations. The opinion followed a complaint by Insurance Commissioner Robert B. Taylor, who claimed some dealers were advertising unem ployment benefits ' to persons buying on time. Septic Tank Owners Take Notice Roma owners have discovered that septic tanks stop-up and overflow. Two reasons are first, because the tanks are not cleaned at proper intervals; secondly, toilet tissue that does not readily disintegrate may clog the drains and force them to back up! Recognizing the importance of this, MD Toilet Tissue is pro cessed so that it absorbs water completely and quickly gives less trouble with clogged discharge drains in the septic tank system. Follow this plan for best insur ance: Consult your County Health Department, your plumber, or a septic tank service company, for advice on cleaning your tank. Use MD Toilet Tissue! As We Live By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. iHM .jw Steady Work Is Worth Moving For Financial security is worth many sacrifices, especially when one has a family to think of. (Qj "My husband and I have been married for eignt years and have two children, a girl six and a boy two. During the years of our marriage my husband has not had steady em ployment, through no fault of his. Recently he Dr. Hexlock has been of fered a job in another state. Should we sell our furniture and leave the state for this other job? It has more opportunities for advancement than the work he is doing now. Come fall and win ter he will be out of work again, as his work depends on the weather. What would you ad vise? (A) I would certainly advise that your husband accept the of fer if it promises steady em ployment and the opportunity to advance. A man with a family cannot hope to support them very well if his work lasts only half the year. Because your children are still young the move will not be so difficult for them as it would be if they were teenagers. They can grow up in the new community and feel that it is "home' 'to them." Furtherwore, as they grow older their needs and wanta will be greater. Then it would be a real hardship for them to have to get along on what their father could earn in part of a year's work. As for selling your furniture, I see no reason for that. You would get very little for it second-hand furniture rarely brings much and you would then have to buy new furniture for your new home. That would be much more expensive than having the furniture shipped to the place where your husband's new job would be. It might be wise to let him go ahead of you and pick out a home, then send for you and the children. That way you could have your furniture moved straight to the new home and would not have the expense of putting it in storage until you found a place. (COPYRIGHT 1955, GENERAL FEATURES CORP.) Around Hollywood By ALINI MOSIY United Preii Correspondent Editor's note: Aline Mosby is on vacation. Guest columnist Eddie Can tor explains his opposition to pay-TV. By EDDIE CANTOR Written for Ihe United Press Hollywood (U.P.) A pop ular song some years ago had a phrase "No, no, they can't take that, away from me." And that is exactly the way I feel about free television as opposed to pay-as-you-see TV. There are so few things in life that are free, and the air, thank God, is one. I don't feel that any one has the right to say you can not see a certain show if you cannot pay $2 for the privilege. What about the theaters, you say? We you and I do not own the theaters. But we do own the air, and that's the difference. I personally could pay $2 to see a top Broadway show or a big fight on TV. But I wouldn't, be cause I know there are many, many people in this country who can't afford the S2. I feel that pay-TV is discriminatory. Good Will What about the big prizefights and football games which are not shown in our home? It seems to me that were the TV rights to these events made available to a sponsor, one of the bigger corporations would be happy to pick up the tab merely for good will. I am thinking now of the mag nificent show that co-starred Ethel Merman and Mary Martin some months ago. That sponsor was so unobtrusive in selling his product that I wanted to go out and buy one out of sheer gratitude for his giving me such fine entertainment. That is as it should be. When we make the initial ex penditure for a TV set, I feel that all the entertainment it brings us should be included, without our having to pay any thing extra. When we buy a car, we are free to drive to the beach or the mountains. It works the same way, I believe, with television. Let us consider radio. Oh yes, I know some people feel it's dead. But actually it's the live liest corpse that ever happened! There was never any question about paying for radio entertain ment. And radio is still very healthy. Statistics show that there are still more radio sets sold than TV receivers. While I am doing a weekly TV show, I am also doing a radio show five times weekly. And I am frank to tell you that I'm going to be in radio until the last radio is sold! But back to TV. I refuse to get excited about the problem of pay-TV. It isn't controversial, as Wednesday, August 10, 1955 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TftlSUlTE THREE Swedish Boat Chases Unidentified Sub Stockholm, Sweden (U.PJ The Marine Department reported today a Swedish torpedo boat chased an unidentified subma rine violating Swedish territor ial waters yesterday and dropped depth charges in an attempt to force it to surface. The torpedo boat spotted the unidentified sub off the island of Gotland when the underwater craft suddenly raised periscope about 50 yards from the patrol boat. The torpedo boat, carrying a party of movie actors shooting a film called "Blue Sea," rushed toward the periscope, but the sub hastily retreated beneath the sea. WORKER CRUSHED Prineville (U.R) Lloyd Francis Cady Jr., 32, Madras, was crushed to death Monday evening when struck by the hy draulic lift of a paving spreader in an accident about five miles east of here. far as I'm concerned, for I feel there never will be pay-television. As the Gershwins said, "They can't take that away from me." And I do mean free air. Eisenhower Chats With Billy Graham Gettysburg, Pa.
