Republican congressional leaders working on the budget with the idea of reducing taxes, claim that one million employes can be cut from the payroll, resulting in a saving of more than three hillion dollars a year. Well, why don't they no ahead and fire the employes? o a President Truman has made it clear oine and for all that if there is any general rent increase, congress will have to ord'-r it and perhaps over his veto. Mr. Truman toid a t ews conference there is no justification at this time lor such an increase; the rent line must be held, he said. A senate committee is considering rent' l>lans, including one for a 15 per-j cent general boost. o —o— — President William Green of the: AFL ba.x invited the CIO to merge] with his labor organization and make a stand against objectionable legislation, at last talked-of in ( congress in these days.

The election was not held in i. conformity with our country's idea t of a free election, nor in keeping with the provisions of the Yalta and Potsdam conferences. With t Russia running the works, the people were prevented in using 1 their right of franchise, but as diplomats declare, there is no gain in severing relations with the offending country. 0 o The Dairy-Vet school on Wednesday is of more than the usual interest to this community, due ' to the importance of the industry in this county. Our dairy farms are recognised among the best ' in the state and products from ■ these farms contribute to the prosperity of our people. The purpose of the om-day s<boui is to stress these practices and methods winch increase production and income and the opportunities that lie ahead in the milk and dairy lines.

' Scouting today has 4,413.139 boys, and leaders on its membership rolls. The Boy Scout .Movement bas i been adjudged one of the most i potential factor,'in the promotion of world peace. Its great infillerne in international friendship , ami good-will has been constantly |furthi I 1 by Scout Jamborees, visits and corre>i*ondence across th<- seas. I in more recent years it has seeu examples of world wide helpfulness. For instance, the Boy Scouts of America, which marks its 37th anniversary during Boy Scout Week. Feb. 7 to 13. has a World Friendship Fund of vol-, tint.iiy gifts by it- members. Titus’ tar over IllO.tHiti has gone to help Boy Stouts in 32 nations over | seas rebuild their units. In addition 100 < axes. or twenty tons.' <>f Scout Uniforms and equipment given in the Scouts' own "Shirts- 1 Off-Our Backs’* campaign have guile to St outs of 13 lands. These international aspects of the Boy Scouts are worth examining. The Scout Oath and Law, with slight variations in different countries, are known the world around Scouting has promoted international g<MMI-wUi aud friendship by amidiasizing those points: which nations have in common. I not their differences. The Scout | Program is based upon activities I that are fundamental to boyhood the world around. Vamping and life in the open attracts all boys, regardless of the language they speak.

for at least six days the streptococci quickly disappear from the throat and do not recur. Furthermore. xiich treatment seems to be helpful in avoiding complications. Neither the sulfonamide drugs nor |H-i>icillin seems to have much. I if any. value in the treatment of measles, nor does there appear to Is- any other drug which has any marked effect on this condition. Hence, in so far as measles is con- | cerned. the main efforts must be In the direction of prevention. A substance obtained frem the protein portion of the liquid part of the blood, known as gamma globulin, if given to children recently exposed to the disease will either prevent the disorder or at least make the attack milder. Whooping cough causes more deaths in young children than auy other catching disc-use. particularly in Infants under one year oj age. In order to help prevent these deaths, children should be given whooping cough vaccine early in life, at the third nwnth. according to many pbysKUUM aud always by the time they are six months of age. Perhaps the time will come when we shall have safe and sure earns, similar to penk iilin. tor such discmmns an whooping cwugh and diph tberts but until we do. all cbildrw he praseewn by preventive vacrUMM and serum*.

1 nl CHAPTER THIRTY PHILIP STOPPED the car tn front of a large apartment house. , "1 have two calls to make here," he said, his voice sudden iv tired and expressionless. "You > i get a bus on the corner that wu» take you to Colfax U you don't want to wait." "I've nothing else to do," Sheila said indifferently. He went into the building conscious of her eyes following him. Why had ho ever told Anne to send her that wire? Why liadn t he waited another day? He prescribed first for a light case of flu—rest in bed, fruit juices, tea and toast. In the next apartment a child had measles. To the mother’s exclamation of relief at his diagnosis, he replied soberly that measles was no joke and left detailed instructions. What couldn't a neglected case cause? It was beginning to look like an epidemic. When he returned to the car, Sheila greeted him with a snule. “You weren't very long." So the subject of their past mistakes was dosed. She had always broken off like that, just when you thought you were In for a scene. "Measles and flu," hs said briefly, and put his foot on the starter. “How do you like general practice again, after the hospital?" she asked. “Oh, I don't know—the cases are less interesting, the people more. I’m quite satisfied, but everything comes at once. This last week has been pretty strenuous." "Full of babies and broken legs?" "And one tittle girt with acidosis.” "Which wan harder on you than a” the rest put together." There was real sympathy In her voice. What waa she going to do now. preclptate a scene? She must know his defenses were low. Heck! Why should he think she wanted to start anything? Only because he'd seen it in her eyes. She couldn't fool him—any more than he could fool her. Deliberately be forced himself to relax his tight grip on the wheel When he poke hi* voice sounded quiet and natural ever, to his own ears. “How do you like your work now?” "Oh. it’s ail rfgha. I'm with women all the time, and I don't bk. that very well.” She wasn't with women after working hours, be thought, with a flash of amusement. “No." he said, "I remember that you never did. Come to think of IL 1 never heard a man say he didn't like being with men." "You’re all too eoneehed." When he let her out in front of iier hotel, she lifted her chin a little and smikd al turn. Thanks for the lift. Doctor." "You're quite welcome." He drove awgy Tthout gjanciug teo-ft Ite eould not even fool himself any

ler Gu y wanted to go wet or dry i for the ensuing four year period. { GOP party leaders committed I to push through Governor Gates’ refoim measure today were employing 'wo different "sales lines." Tu those representatives who i were known to be opposed to party control over alcoholic beverage licenses, the measure was lielug "sold" as an ideal way to divorce liquor from politics. To those legislators Inclined to I favor tighter controls, prehaps ’ ••ven local option, the governor's bill was being presented as a loc-' al option measure in disguise. —e— PLAN RESERVE j (Continued From Page On«) || the civilian planning agency to | Mr. Truman when lie resigned us ( I chief of CPA.

it was the same person, and you i were married to her. He had long since learned that ’ repression and control are not al--1 ways the best ways to combat I emotions. He wanted to think thia i thing through, if he could, and the > very use of the worn phrase made him realize how threadbare all i thoughts on the subject must be But he waa not conscious of a direct pull be'ween love and duty. Was it ever that clean cuL he > wondered? Mary bad been, per- : haps, the deciding factor, both In his break with Sheila ind his mar- : nagc to Anne, but he was not ; thinking now of his duty to either. ! He was not going - leave Anne for Sheila; he waa facing, not a choice • of action, but a choice, if you could I ca ’ it that, of emotions. i He wished it wers a matter of choice. There wouldn’t have been any doubt ot the outcome if it i were. He had only to think of all the, things that had made him , want a divorce—Sheila's indifference to i is work, her refusal to do her share by makir.g a home and looking after her child, the i lealization that she wanted nothi ,lng but money and a good time, and that to please her he must , sacrifice not only his own ideas ot what he wanted his life to be, but Mary as well. And now Sheila was coming between him and Anne. How he could even think of Sheila when he bad a wife like Anne was more than ! he could understand.

She took it for granted that Sheila would i stay through the evening, and Anne extended the Invitation. Philip saw Sheila hesitate, and realizing that Anne had asked her on Mary's account, hs seconded the invitation. Sheila accepted, then, and looking slightly out at place m the kitchen, undertook to 1 broil the steak for dinner, her only culinary accomplishment. Philip was forced to admire the «*se of manner with which she and Anne conversed. Women, be nought, as they talked about dcthes, hair, and the effect of dry efimatea on the skin, were really wonderful. They could always find a common ground. But it did not make him feel comfectabio.
