Troops returning from Europe after World War II invariably shouted “where’s Butch”, as their ship docked. By the time of his retirement as mayor, LaGuardia had become more ctbsely identified with New York than any other man. 0 RED CROSS (Conilnnrd rrom I'nice Jackie Teeple. Dorothy Hammond.

His decision, in effect, upheld the defense contention that the tax law was void because state representation had not. been shifted under the constitution. Belshaw filed an answer to, the demurrer dismissal yesterday. He claimed that rhe ruling, if followed to its logical conclusion, would make the state’s cigarette, incqme.’ liquor arid excise taxes also illegal. Thoy were all passed since 1927. more than six years after the last reI apportionment. i Some observers said such a decision might cast doubt over the legality of all laws passed hy the state legislature since 1927.

Report Rome Quiet On 'Day Os Protest' I Talk Os Revolution In Italy Scotched Rome, Sept. 20 —(P) — Half of the Communists’ and leftwing Socialists’ big national “day of protest” to get premier Alcide De Gasperi’s government out and themselves in passed today without any sign of a demonstration. There had been talk of a resolution, scoffed by both the Communists and the midly rightist govrenment. But up to noon, Rome looked more peaceful than usual. A Vnited Press correspondent who spent an hour riding through Rome and looking in vain for a crowd booing De Gasperi and the high cost of living, finally found a man in shirtsleeves standing in front of the government’s viminale palace. A big crowd in front of Viminale palace is essential in any well-or-ganized demonstration. The man looked around and said almost in disappointment, “Ma Questa non ela rivoluzione,” (“But this is not the revolution.") It was that way in 20 cities reporting to the United Press by 11 A. M. Workers went to work, stores opened on time, transportation functioned and the weather was generally fair. Where there had been talk of revolutions, there was now an air of mild expectancy. While the_ Communists and Socialists had failed to get their “day of protest” going in the cool of the morning, there no doubt will be some organized protesting beginning at 3:30 p.m., when speechmaking is supposed to start in Turin. The main speeches will be made at 6 p.m. in the great cities, but the leaders of the Communist and Socialist parties will not be among [the speakers. I The minister of interior said he thought the painful memories of Fascism were too fresh for the Protestants to start a revolution. Minister of interior Mario ScelI ba. who is charged with keeping I order, “guaranteed” that the demonstrations would be peaceful. Palmiro Togliatti, the Communist boss, said reports that the “day of protest" would set off an insurrection were “falsehoods and provocations.” The Communists and leftwing ! Socialists want to get back into I the cabinet, from which premier Alcide De Gasperi expelled them 14 weeks ago. Since it was plain that De Gasperi does not intend to relent and let them back in, their only recourse was to get the De Gasperi government out and try to get into the government that succeeds his. That was the purpose of the “day j of protest.” Since the Communists

run the national confederation of labor, it was easy for them to get demonstrations started throughout the country. The demonstrations would, the Communists and Socialists believed, impress upon deputies in the national assembly that grassroots sentiment was against De Gasperi. _____o SOME DECREASES (Continued rrom FaKe 1) ket. In answer he charged some food price increases were “unrealistic and unwarranted.” In Washington, the agriculture department said housewives would spend a record-breaking $35,00ff,000,000 for food this year, 17 percent more than in 1946. However, it said the average American would spend less for food in proportion to income than before the war. The average household is spending 21 percent of its income for food this year, the department said. Last year they spent only 18 percent, but in the 1935-39 period, the average was 23 percent. The labor department reported simultaneously that the cost of living rose 3.1 percent in the first seven months this year. The department reported that the consumer price index hit 158 of the 1935-39 average on July 11, a new all-time high. The price peak of 158 was 8.6 points above the price peak for the boom period following World War I. Reports of lower prices at the retail level continued to trickle in. At Pittsburgh, butter which sold around 90 cents last week, dropped to the low 80’s. Two large chain stores offered butter at 79 cents. Two big Milwaukee dairies cut milk prices cent a quart. Butter dropped four cents. NOTICE BALERS! We have 9-6-14J4 gauge wire ties for sale in quantities. SPECIAL Quantity Discount for Sept, and Oct. Safes. HOOSIER GRAIN & SUPPLY CO.
