The communist party stands ready, able and willing to deliver those blows." o Berne Man Returns To Barbering Trade Berne, Jan. 20 — Werner Lehman, a barber in Berne for many i years but owner and operator of ' the City Lunch, a local restaurant for the past 12 years until he sold

it a year ago, has again taken up the barbering trade. He will be employed as a barber in Mark Lehman’s barber shop here. o_ Conceit may puff a man up, but never prop him up. Ruekin. o Lester Adler Named Program Director Lester Adler, of Decatur route four, has been appointed director of the “Advance With Christ” program for the Pleasant Dale Church of the Brethren, according to an announcement received here from the general headquarters of the church in Elgin. 111. The “Advance With Christ” program, which was adopted by the church at the recent annual conference in Florida, is an effort “to translate faith into more aggressive action.” Regional and local directors are being appointed to awaken individual churches to their responsibility in the program. Three principal goals are: (1) The development of home missions, including evangelism and church extension; (2) more vigorious emphasis on peace education; (3) action on the alcohol problems. PAULEY STORY (Continued from Page 1) that the idea of “profiteering by ‘inskiers'” was “just plain nonsense.” He said he agreed and gave these examples from his own speculations to show that he did not take advantage of any inside information: 1. On May 13, 1946, OPA suddenly raised wheat ceilings 15 cents a bushel. Pauley said the last time prior to that date that he bought INSURANCE Leo “Dutch” Ehingei FIRE — WIND — AUTO 720 No. 3rd St. Phene 570

any grain of any kind was Jan. 22, 1946. His last prior wheat purchase July 26, 1945. Just before the price increase, he said, he was selling—loo,ooo bushels of wheat March 27, 1946, and 250,000 bushels of other grain earlier that month. 2. Harold E. Stassen, chief Pauley accuser, has said insiders bought wheat just before unusually large government purchases in January, February and March, 1947. Wheat futures rose 89 cents a bushel between Feb. 1, 1947 and March 18, 1947. Pauley said he had no “wheat whatsoever” from March 27. 1946, to Aug. 12, 1947, and made no grain purchases “of any kind” between Nov. 27, 1946, and March, 20, 1947. 3. It has been intimated that a rise in the cotton market on Nov. 20, 1947, before the release of the government cotton crop estimate, indicated a “leak.” Pauley said he had held 1,000 bales, but sold it at a profit of $1,275. Cotton has been higher almost all the time since then, he said. —o- - ■ We make Keys—Gambles.
