‘ i \ Indiana and other midwest states have tieen beset by destructive storms. We can’t control the elements, but it would be a helpful jesture if the storm maker concocted less violent potions of June weather. J O -0-r The U.s. senate will not take a summer vacation, the leaders favoring continuance of the session v until the middle of September or lai er. Much time was taken in the crime and military hearings and a stack of unfinished business remains on the senate calendar. - Night sessions will be held this week to complete action on the 1952 budget and hearings on the control measures. \ The congress'’A men might be home by Christmas. '■- 7 A- - scores and standings are confined to the sports department, but interest 4n the race tor ftrst place between the White Sox and Yankees extends beyond the sports, page. Americans like their baseball and although the Yankees are recognized as the “proses-. sibnals,” the Chicago- team now has the edge in league standing. In the National league, the Brooklyn Dodgers are in the lead and probably will sail through to the championship. ' But you never • knoiy what’s going to happen in a baseball game. — The federal government appropriates some two hundred million dollars to fight -disease in cattle and poultry and a littlp more than two millions to stamp out the narcotics (racket. There is nothing wrong with the appropriation of funds to improve conditions in the livestock and poultry fields atd maybe the amount isn’t ekough to do an effective job LLrimghout the country. Dealing with the dope trade requires more money, investigators ex-plain. The federal government should do everything possible to apprehend . the peddlers and the human scums who debase the youth of the nation.

. , . i Vitamin Speeding Blood Clotting

UNLIKE most vitamin deficiencies, lack of vitamin K is not causedr'by failure to eat a, welldieV As a matter of fact, we do not depend directly on food for this vitamin, but rather upon the action of _ certain bacteria which produce it in the intestinal trad. Thus, anything which.inters .* seres with! this, manufacturing, pro c.ess will lower the supply of vitamin K. \ . , ' Another major cause for such a deficiency relates to the fact that K is one of the fat-soluble vitamins. Hence, when the body’s abil-ity-to absorb fat from the ihtestinal tract is* impaired, it is also deprived of vitamin K. / Failure of fat absorption is ' ; markeiV feature of a number of ' different diseases, -among them spnue and celiac disease. Obstructive jaundice is another, here, faulty fat absorption is due to the fact that bile, necessary to the digestion of fat, is prevented from entering the intestinal tract\ Vitamin K has a single known font ion. It helps form a substance needed for the clotting of blood. Excessive Weeding, resulting from a lack of vitamin K, may follow injury, the fault being in the clotting of the blood after the bleeding has been started. Hemorrhagic diseases of the newliorn? and hemorrhagic diseases of those suffering from malnutrition or disturbances of fat ab- \ sorption from the intestinal tract, are examples of disorders due to vitamin K deficiency. \ Since there are very few bac- /! teria in the intestinal tract of the

He had icarly reached the kitchen door vhen Tex caught up with him. i Tonto swung savagely around. “What do you want?” he denanded. “Nothing*— nothing. I thought naybe I could be. handy.” Tonto opened his lips to curtly lend the puncher back to the bunknouse. He saw the awe in the young man’s eyes and the shadow □f an honest respect. It was a soothing thing and Tonto’s lips relented. “You can pump some water,” he said and went on, Tex just behind trim. '' J Tonto spent some time ministering to his bruises. His shirt was ripped, he discarded it and beat the dust out of his levis. Tex .helped now and then, but for the ■most part the young puncher leaned against the wall and j] I At dusk Tex lit the lamp, then carried i| into the big front room. • Tonto sank into one of the deep 'chairs with a long sigh. Tex opened the windows and the heavy atmosphere disintegrated before the cool inflow of night air. I “How about Frick?” Tonto asked. Tex shrugged. | “Last I seen, they carried him ?to the cottage. You’re the first : man in these parts to beat him.” •; # “Quite an honor,” Tonto growled. “Reckon it is, so far as the boys are concerned,” Tex said judiciously. Tonto stirred painfully. “All right, whatever you say.” Tex stayed a few minutes longer, /and then went back to the bunk--house. Tonto remained slumped in the chair, unwilling to move. He stared at the darkened fireplace wondering how Ken Frick would -‘take his defeat. Tonto made a wry face. His management of the ; Slash S had certainly got off to a sWur start. \ ' ?

tagonism. The man couldn't nope to better his position by a fight with the boss, and the whole thing was senseless on the face of it. Even had Frick Won the fight, he certainly would not have expected to remain segundo. An owner would never keep a foreman he couldn’t control. * Tonto arose stiffly and picked up tlie lamp. He walked down the hall to the bedrooms. He passed up Grant’s austere room, hesitated a long minute in the doorway of Rick’s. There was too much here of the murdered man’s and Tonto finally turned away. The third, the guest room,' looked comfortable and Tonto painfully undressed. He climbed into bed and lay for awhile staring opt the window into the starlit night. He could see just one corner of the segundo’s cottage out under the trees and his thoughts again turned to Frick. Maybe the man had wanted to drive Tonto off the ranch. It was the only logical answer to Frick’s actions, but the motive was completely missing. What did , Frick gain? Why should he care who owned the spread so long as he remained segundo ? Tento thought of Bart Overby, who had apparently taken his loss in a philosophical manner. It didn’t quite ring true for the average gambler, but Tonto admitted that Overby had struck him as most extraordinary. Maybe Frick and Overby— ? Tonto mulled that over, then his thoughts turned to Ruby Sevier and her relation to Overby, as yet a puzzle itself. •He still thought of her as he drifted off into an uneasy sleep. The clang of the cook’s triangle awakened Tonto the next morning. He dressed swiftly and went out to the bunkhouse, hungrily sniffing the odors of coffee, flapjacks and bacon. The whole crew was there. They grinned at him, murmured greetings and Tonto felt warmed by their acceptance. Frick was not in the room. AS he ate, Tonto kept watching the door but Frick didn’t show up. At last the crew finished and wandered outside. Tonto followed them, glancing sharply toward the cottage. It silent, the door closed, the blinds pulled. Tonto 'felt a surge of anger. Frick should be out here giving his orders for the day instead of sulking. IHe turned to one of the older men of the crew. “Do you know what Work’s to be done?” “Reckon so.” the man nodded

Survey Shows Cost Os Living Rising Check In 34 Cities; Shows Cost Increase i. ♦ Chicago, June 28— (UP)- 1 -. The cost of living has continued tp rise despite scattered price wars, price cuts on some luxury items and a decline in wholesale food costs, a survey showed today. The cost of living index issued by the bureau of? labor statistics yesterday showed an increase of fourtenths of one percent between midApril and mid-May. A spot check by United Press in 34 cities showed no appreciable reversal of the trend from mid-May to mid-June. , • Price cuts which some sources expected would follow the supreme court’s decision nullifying hundreds 'of fair trade agreements between manufacturers ;ypd dealers the most part failed to develop, the survey showed, f Price wars; resulting from the court’s ruling appeared to be confined principally to New York’s big department stores? turned up a 'tew luxury , price cuts, notably on television ‘sets. But a list of items ranging from a fifth of bourbon'to a : four-burner gas stove remained ’ substantially the same during the past month with few variations. Slight priep reductions on some . foods were compehsated for by ink creased costs of others. Milk ini . some cities was selling as high as $s a gallon in retail stores. , Some retailers queried in th£ [ survey said they anticipate lower ptices In various lines of merchandise in the near future. But in j other lines, notably used cars and household furniture, higher prices appeared in the offing. The bun au of labor statistics in ' its report yesterday noted that as of May 15 the cost of living had soared 8 9 percent above the pre Korea' level and stood at its highest point in history. In addition, the survey showed further increases in.rent and pubI lib transportation fares in mariyv cities, while in others they remain- ’ ed the same. .; • \ •

cauniy. He han a quiet engnrey about him that Tonto, liked, the careful speech and slow, deliberate movements. >■ ; “All right, you’re in charge until Frick takes over. Tex Jonas will ride with me. The rest goes as it yygs.” “I’ll handle it.” The man turned but Tonto checked him. “This is just while Frick’s laid up, savvy?” “Never thought no other way. You won’t ketch Jess Ide growing too big for his pants. I’ll handle it.” Tonto was satisfied. He called Tex and stepped into the corral with the men. Tonto spotted Star and his loop shot out, dropped true. He led the bay from the corral and saddled. Tex came up to him, riding a shaggy bronc with a mean eye and a suggestion of concealed stamina“I want to see the Slash S,”Tonto said, “from one end to the other.” , “That’s a big order,” Tex grinned. “We could start with a ride toward the Rafter K line.” . They headed eastward where the high hills curved the rich valley toward the south. They passed the fields and entered a pleasant streteh of wooded country in the midst of which they came tp a small stream. They stopped and let the horses drink. fTex cuffed back his hat and his etes grew dreamy. “There ain’t many spreads, in this part of the country as good as the Slash IS. You ain’t seen much of it, hilt it’s sure a ranch you dream about. I wish I’d had your luck.” “I know how you feel,” Tonto said softly. “I still have to make sure I’m not asleep.” Tex 2, grinned and urged his bronc across the shallow stream, Tonto following close at his heels. They came out of the trees onto open grazing land and Tonto drew rein. The pasture was covered with Slash S beef, meaty animals that I represented mioney on the hoof. Tex drew rein and waited. I “This is just one of the herds,” ; he said/\ “Slash S round-up is t something you hear about.” I “Where are they sold?” i “Mostly buyers come out here. , Railroad’s forty miles beyond Av- | rillo, so it ain’t much of a drive. ( Grant sold ’em on the hoof here, j making the drive at the buyer’s ( risk. But he was a careful man , and they hit the railroad pens in top condition. No one lost.” Tonto nodded silently.
