I Drew Pearson mentions in his column that one reason for the I scarcity of newsprint, th* kind of J paper that this and other uewsI papers use, is the fact that one I I billion people in the world can I j read the greater the demand for ’ newspapers and newsprint.” he comments. Over in Russia, liter’l acy has In-en stepped up from 35 to 75 percent among the people, and even though the world seems a little off balance now and then, j it's a human trait to want to read i about it. -o—o-—-i Tarr.- Haute. Which gained -on:c 1 unfavorable publicity several months ago when its fire department refused to answer a <-aii for help, resulting in the burning to death of a small child in a bom* destroyed by fire, now threatens to shut off sewer service to out laying industry. The fight is to bring areas outside within the city I limits, thus making the property I taxpayers. The argument is sound. ' foi uiiiiK orporated property, enjoying city benefits of polite and fireprotection and sewer service, should help pay the taxes for tin- • advantages. o —o Tin- Indianapolis Star. < harges that the state of Indiana is expending more than 3100,000 annually for pres- agents and reporters to | write "canned” copy for the news-papt-rs in the furtherance of the' various state departments and bureaus. The Star alleges that sixteen mh ailed public relations experts. iraw approximately 35o.’hhi and that a similar sum is expended 1 for their secretaries and typists. plus tin cost of printing and producing their copy. The Republican ' morning newspaper opines that the- ■ press agents Will bombard the cur- i lent session of the legislature with their handout.-, all with the idea of trying to influence legislation favorable to their respective departments It seems that it would be j a govd.tiiu# to clean house around the state capitol. o 0 The stiddeness of the resignation of Janie- F. Byrnes a- Secret-! j ary of State was eased in the ap- I potntiiK-nt of an equally able sue-j censor, General George C. Marshall To state that Byrnes was a i great se< retary of state, is putting it mildly. The world recognized him as one of the most sincere and able men in public life. His recent maneuvering with Molotov and tbe' Itussiaiis, proved that he could win* ’ tin- cause for which he fought. He upheld the dignity and powerful i right of the United States and won | many a point in the peace treaty discussion and in the lormatiou of j the United Nations. General Mar-1 shall was unanimously approved by the senate committee, which attests to the high regard in which the former chief of staff is held in the country Suave, trained and at • the same time resolute, Marshall is a worthy »ur< snnmi to the digniI fled and equally compstent Byrnes.

"I like the rumble too,” she announced. Philip smiled down at her. "I expect yvure a mountain baby anyhow, aren't you?" “Uh-huh My grandma took me clear to the top of Pike's Prak " “That reminds me."

Seeking Strikeless Steel Settlement Begin Negotiations Week From Today Washington. Jan. ” <1 Pt Government hopes rosv- today for a strfkeleas settlement of the steel wage di*put<-. The optimism was based partly on a prediction by the authoritative magazine Steel that the Indus iry and th« CIO united steel work <rs may reach accord this year without a strike. in addition, it was counted significant that wage demands in the l nil. meal packing and rubber industries are now being settled without -.trikes ,1s in steel. CIO unions play a leading role in those industries. all of which had actual or threatened stoppage, last year. Settlements reached thus far rance from seven to 14 cents an hour. Some quarters expected the steel settlement to fall within that pattern Th- steel workers pnion and f. S. Steel Corp. bellwether of the industry, begin negotiations in Pittsburgh a week from today Both side hope to reach a settlement without coining tn Washington Hoti' a re prepared with extensive studb-s on th* guaranteed annual wage, one of the union's principal demands The union will also bring in a report on the steel industry's profits now being prepared by Roliert R.

But still. . .. POO Pie next Sunday morning the four young people and Mary started for the mountains. The day was clear with the sun a tittle too hot for the perfect comfort of Jean and Roddy In the rumble seat, but by the time they began to climb Lookout Mountain it was getting a little hazy. “If only the sun doesn’t quite come out." said Anna "I think 1 never saw the colors so soft That stretch of blue down there looks like the ocean, doesn't It?" When they reacted the summit, they parked the tar near the museum and walked up the little incline to Buffalo Bill's grave. "I thought there was a monument." Philip said, “but I guess the whole mountain is the monument" Later, when they had gone back down to the museum, Anne steered Philip to the door of the picture gallery to confront him with an enormous picture of the Colonel on his horse. Philip was suitably impressed. “You believe in the proper setting for things out here, don't you?" he said. They went down the steps and walked about, looking at the other ffietures; then returned to the Ittle platform and looked again at that more-than-life-stse painting. They were, perhaps. In a little more romantie mood when thev started on again to drive over the Hog-Rack to Morrison. Philip liked Bear Creek Canyon too. "I'd like to camp out here I suppose there aren't any fish, but it would be a nice place to sleep." "It is fun " said Anne. "I live i just back from the entrance to a i canyon like this—Boulder Canyon. I’ve spent the night on the banks I and listened to the water until I went to sleep, many a time " “Boulder is the college town, i isn't It?” "Yes. the University of Colorado I wanted to go. it was so handy, i and all; but that was 29“ He nodded his comprehension “What W didn't do to all our < plans!" They went through Evergreen, i past the lake, where, Anne said, you could skate all winter, and on up. accompanied all the way by the beauty and noise of the ereek. K> Idaho Springs; and from the brings they began the steep, exciting climb tq Central City “Look down there. Philip," Mary said suddenly. Philip answered with flippancy, "I'd just as soon not look while I'm driving." “What are you trying to do?" Anne asked, “scare me?” “As If you mountain people could be ecared-in mountains." Philip jeered "You're afraid to drive over forty on a perfectly good rood, but you love to go skittering around these curves with a few thousand feet falling away on each side. . . . What do you de when you meet a car on oat of them anyM- y?"

"You can sure look down a long way.” “Here's Central now.” Anne said as they topped a steep rise and plunged down on the other sida “The 'Little Kingdom of Gilptn,'" she added. “ The richest square mile on earth.' We're very romantic about IL" They reached the bottom of the hill only to start climbing again They drove slowly past the bank and the Teller House and stopped across the street from the famous Opera House. “Is this what you call a ghost town?" Philip asked, looking about him. "No, not really a ghost town, though it looks a little like one." Anne said. "Anyhow, tt has come to life now. The Opera House is closed, but we can go through the hotel" “You'll like the murals." Roddy assured Philip as he helped Jean to climb out “And the face on the barroom floor," he added, leading the way into the unimposing lobby. “This was the finest hotel in the Rockies," Jean said. “Yes," said Anne. "When General Grant was here, they paved the sidewalk with silver bars just to stow their respect" They glanced about briefly and then crossed the hall to the saloon which had been completely restored even to ths nude murals Roddy had spoken of "They were all covered up with respectable wall paper." he explained, "and the decorators just happened to find 'em when they were scraping off the old paper." “How fortunate" murmured Philip. Shall we have a highball before dinner?" The alley back of the hotel had been roofed over with glass and turned Into a dining room. The tables were covered with red checked cloth, to lend atmosphere. Jean supposed "Everyone will be coming up for the festival pretty soon now," Anne remarked “I remember Sheila’s telling me about it when It started," Philip said “Quite an Idea." T m so glad you like our treasures. Philip." Anne said impulsively “Sometimes visitors are kind of snooty about them." “This air makes you sleepy, not snooty." Roddy yawned. “Let's have another drink. Philip." “No thanks." said Philip Td rather not ha*e too many drinkwith that drive ahead of me." “Hi drive," Roddy offered, but Jean grabbed his arm “Not with another drink, you don't" "Okay! Okay!" Roddy subsided without rancor. “Suppose J do drive though You can t half see the scenery with your eyes on the road" A little htter they contamptotod departed glories in front of thHouse Anne said “Can you imagine rough miners eondar dewn from their claims to or Modjaska. ee Lotto Crabtree?"
