home on the reservation. No can

The law s the law. But look at the
other aide of the fence. Living on
the reservation this white man still
can't hunt and fish on Indian land

back to wartime and the pen pal

cruising the Pacific aboard Uncle
Barn's destroyer DE6S7 find that they

use to receive a lltue more so
they could answer it. Remember all
the drives asking you to write the
troys uvrr were during the war
years? Well, maybe they need the
mall Just as much now. An ocean
can be Just as lonely in peace as it is

were on the Job.
If they find leaky faucets or resi
dents who are wasting water, they
are to report the conditions to au
thorities. Coupled with this, the city has
raised the fine for leaky plumbing
from 12 to 13 lor each day of
the offense.
But the penalty for other water
wasters could be more. A Brook
lyn magistrate collected a $10 fine
from a man for washing bis car

'Acute'
The new restrictions stemmed
from what Carney called an "in
