1 a n r Pi n he he 1 an iert lac po or tie ri o Try and By BENNETT CERF- JOHN STRALEY, Wall Street sage and avid fisherman, was in pursQit of some succulent rainbow trout when he per ceived a fellow angler sprawled out on the bank, with his rod jerking violently in. his hands. "Hey, feller," called Straley. "You've got a bite:" "Beckon I have," agreed the man, smothering a yawn. "Shall I pull it in for you?" asked Straley, and when the man nodded, brought in a beauty, re baited the hook and cast out the line again. The man nev er moved a muscle. "I can see," commented Straley caustically, "you're the kind of fellow who likes to hare everything done for him. Why don't you get married?" "Not a bad idea, said the fisherman. "Would you happen to know a good-looking widow with two or three children?" A Broadway mnsic shop reports that a midget came in and bought its entire supply of a record from "Gigi": Thank Heaven for little Girls." C Bennett Cert. Distributed by King Features Syndicate. k In the Day's News By FRANK Big question: What's Ike doing in Eu rope? He's trying to cement the Western Alliance into a firm, COHESIVE unit that will STICK TOGETHER TO THE FINISH. THAT prompts another ques tion: Why is Mr. K coming to the United States? rpHE answer, of course, could -- be that he is coming be cause he has been invited. But that answer would only scratch the surface. He is coming because he WANTS to come. He has wanted to come for a long time. It can be truthfully stat ed that he has wangled the invitation. He has been talk ing since goodness only knows when about a summit confer ence. It is obvious that he re gards himself and Ike as the summit. He wants to get together with the President of the United States and settle ev erything in a big way. QUESTION No. 3: WHY? A S TO that, we can only guess. But we can be reasably cer tain that his No. 1 objective is to DIVIDE THE NATO AL LIANCE. How? Well, if he could trap Presi dent Eisenhower into the ap pearance to SETTLING EV ERYTHING WITHOUT CON SULTING OUR ALLIES he'd have it made. In that way, jealousies would be stirred up. Our allies could be made to feel that we are feeling our oats, that our heads are get ting swelled, that we are try ing to run the world. That would wreck every thing. MR. K is nobody's fool. But Fortunately $ President Eisenhower is no body's fool. He knows that in inviting Mr. K. to come to the U. S. he is running the risk of arousing the suspicions and I i -mFTTM ' weather-wilted I fa' ' ' I F yssr CLVtussy MOISTURE CREAM & MOISTURE LOTION raw I Special kxmeckmts draw moisture to your dry, thirsty tUn.

Only like enjoys the per- somi . onfidence of the PEO PLES with whom we are al lied. They believe him. They have faith in him. They saw him in action in the world's greatest war.

It is impossible to doubt the genuineness of these ovations. They come from tlie heart, IIHAT President Eisenhow- er is seeking to do is to checkmate in advance Mr. K's strategy of DIVIDE AND CONQUER. Khrushchev Plans To Bring Wife Too Washington - (UPD - Diplo matic informants said Satur day that Soviet Premier Ni- kita Khrushchev plans to bring his wife, Nadezhda, with him when he comes to the United States next month for a 12-day visit.

WESTERN THRIFT 30 North Central Ave. Dial SP 3-5371 Nixon Warns Not To Expect Change In Coming Talks Los Angeles-IUPD-Vice Presi dent Richard M. Nixon Sun day night warned the nation not to expect a new era of sweetness and light to result from President Eisenhower's exchange of visits with Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. "Ike will have his guard up in the conversations with Khrushchev," said Nixon. "They can't talk one way in one part of the world and have 1 the Communist forces act another way (as in India) in another part of the world. "It is a warning to us that you can't count too highly on this being a new era of sweet ness and light, the Commu nists are still on their aggres sive course." To Address Convention Nixon made his remarks at a press conference on his ar rival here to address the 60th national convention of the Veterans of Foreign Wars. He said he believed Eisenhower's tremendous reception during his current European tour would give him a psychologi cal edge when he meets with Khrushchev. "The President's tour has exceeded expectations. It in dicates so far that his prestige and the prestige of the U. S, is higher than at any time since the war. It has demon strated the unity and will of the free nations." National Commander John W. Nahan, Helena, Mont., said one of the proposals to be made at- the convention was the formation of a new Amer ican "Indian Ocean fleet" by taking some ships out of moth balls. Agitation Obvious "There is a tremendous power vacuum in India and southeast Asia," Mahan said "It is obvious by recent events that the Communist world now intends to start agitating in this area. rie urged the u. s. imme diately make up a fleet to be known as the Indian Ocean fleet, from ships presently in moth balls." 'Some 25,000 delegates were here for the five-day conven tion which officially opened today in joint session with the ladies auxiliary. George Meany, AFL-CIO president, and James Douglas, Air Force secretary, will re ceive special awards tonight at the distinguished guests banquet. Michigan Solons Approve Use Tax Lansing, Mich. -(UPD- Michi gan Gov. G. Mennen Williams got the money he needs to balance a record budget when the legislature adopted $125,500,000 tax package built around a four-cent use (sales) tax. The final hurdle was clear ed at 9:30 p.m. when the sen ate voted 20-7 to accept the package that will boost the use tax by one cent and the business activities tax by 1M mills. The action, taken in the GOP-dominated senate amid an outburst fo criticism against Williams, means con sumers can expect to pay four cents on a dollar's purchase, most profitable business, utili ties and financial institutions will pay slightly higher taxes retroactive to July 1, and ho tels and motels and contrac tors on federal projects will no longer have sales tax ex emptions. Williams said he would sign the bill as soon as he gets it. probably early this week, ev en though he "profoundly" objects to the use tax-which now faces a supreme court test on constitutionality.
