H. Trotter told today how he found a little fox terrier grieving pitifully over the life less body of a canine playmate. For two cold days and nights the black and white dog un claimed by any owner kept a lonely vigil m a . field here. Trotter, who lives nearby, found the shivering terrier standing by another dog's body. Trotter tried in vain to coax the dog to leave, but he finally succeeded in persuading it to eat some of the food he brought. The license of the dead animal showed its owners to be the W. H. Mcintosh family of Beaverton. The Mclntoshs identified the limp body as their "Butch," who disappeared last Sunday. Ralph, 20, had confidently assured his younger sisters Butch would re turn. "He's run off before," he said. "He'll show up." The owners went to recover LOS ANGELES.

(Continued from Page One) for us to bring the whole thing to a head NOW. . . TTHERE is a lot of discontent with the conduct of our foreign affairs which seems to be getting us into MORE trouble instead of getting us out ot trouble. This discontent is levelled at Truman and his state department. Part of the discontent is gen uine. Part of it is POLITICAL for under our system the outs seek to discredit the ins. If you are wise, you will discount the political discontent that is being stirred up. The proof of the pudding will be the eatine thereof. If Tru man and Byrnes succeed in HANDLING the Russians in such a way as to AVOID WAR NOW and gain Russian friendship and confidence later, we will be all for them. About all we can do now is to wait and see.
