The feudin’ and fightin’ of the Hatfields and McCoys was tame ccnipared to the scrap that broke out between Senators Benton and McCarthy. They better check their guns. - The Red Cross has been asked \ to double its quota for the flood sufferers and Chairman GlendenIng of the'local chapter appeals to the people to meet the challenge. The 3600 quota was quickly met and with a little effort, k double that amount should be raised. No one knows when disaster willxstrike his own commun1 ity and those who escape these calamities can come to the aid of the stricken. Let’s meet the emergency by generous giving to the Red Cross.- v f ' , Senator Jenner Is given credit being the “brains” and titular head of the Republican party In Indiana. Members of his own .party say that-he bossed the last session of the legislature and that it was influence that caused the majority to for the bill to open the pension rolls. In 1941, , Senator Jenner voted to keep the names of persons on public assist- . ance rolls confidential. In calling his attention to this vote, State Sin. Denton asked, “You must have believed at that time, that the, federal law was clear and I think you will agree w.ith me that lhe present plight of the Indiana people is not due to any action of the federal government, but to > the present Indiana state legislar ture.” Sen. Denton said that Indiana’s welfare problem could ■ be solved if Sen. Jenner now used his influence in getting the legisi ' lature tp correct the state law. Provision to equip an X-ray laboratory and employ a full-time technician at the Adains County —Memorial hospital are contained in the budget for 1952 filed by the trustees.

Heart Condition Not A Bar To Travel By Plane
' By Herman N. Bundesen M.D. | MANY people with weak or i damaged hearts fear totravel by dirplane. In fact, there seems to he a general belief ,that. air travel offers a special hazard for siftph IV patten's. , I - . Recent tests,' ‘ however. s|Gow that this opinion* has little to/support it. The oxygen in the/ai?-is ’ markedly reduced at lylgh attitudes, and it Is. this farlor which supposedly made airplane journeys . dangerous for tjpse heart disease. x -J Oxygen Reduced Nevertheless, when the* oxygen content of the air was reduced to 10 per cent-"equivalent to an altitude of f 17',000 ; feet in an unptesplane —no was seed in the electrocardiograms of heart patients. (An electrocardiogram is a tracing of the heart beat.) . Thus, this finding indicate* that lowered oxygen intake causes np difference in the speed hr rhythm of the heart, and ** serves to demonstrate the remarkable tolerance for high attitude that heart patients possess. This is confirmed by numerous airline travel records, as well as air evacuation o f the wounded during World Wgr 11. Surprising Tolerance In addition, a small group of ‘ ' -> '■ J
1 / —_ - Without cuttailing its Services, the county Welfare Department, proposes to operate on a smaller budget next year and consequently reduce its tax levy for the .county’s share of the old age and dependent childrens’ programs.’ The budget for 1952 has been reduced approximately 319,000, which will enable a cut of at least five cents in the welfare tax rate. Heavier reimbursements from the , federal government reduced the amount to be raised by local taxation. The department’s budget totals 3184,625, compared to $203,- * 640 under which itiapperating this year. If Indiana is deprived of federal contributions, then a different situation will arise. t. —o o—— The "Big Lie":— In recent years we have become familiar with the “big lie” technique of propaganda. It is based ,on the idea, carried- out by Hitler, .that if a big enough lie is told boldly and often enough, everyone will believe it. One of the iperila of the |big lie is in its fectiveness. Sometimes thd ones ■■ ■ . i\ ? who tell the big lie begin to believe it themselves. . ■ . - 1 ‘M - ■The Communists also have made use of the big lie, down to and including their propaganda l<fui pourings in relation to the cease-fire talks in Korea. The Reds have declared in their newspapers and broadcasts that the United Nations forces suffered defeat in Korea, and came in defeat to. the Reds to beg for peace. To\ support this lie\ they framed the infamous photographs of negotiators, unarmed in compliance with preliminary agreement, arriving at Kaesong while armed Red soldiers stood by. ■ „ ' ■ ■ , ' ■ Therb are some indications that this big lie has been proclaimed so boldly and so often that even some of the highly placed Reds in Peiping have begun to believe it. There have been apparent surprise and impatience in Peiping that the negotiators! at Kaesong have not been behaving with the V-, proper demeanor of defeated sold- . iers, particularly with regard to the disputed location for a buffer zone to separate the combatants. ' ■ ■ ’’ \ It is bad enough that the peounder Red control are filled with lies about America and other \ democratic nations. But if the topmasts (Communists, who should know -hotter, are believing their own propaganda. the road of negotiations with them will become rough indeed. x ' \ ' ■ ' r'.'' ■
.patients, wljo have had heart disease due to hardened artjer*os and repeated attacks of cordr.ary thrombosis, was studied. It was found that even these patients/ tolerated air travel surprisingly well. The reason for the tolerance is the fact that .the heart patient is protected from the harmful effects of low amounts o oxygen ; in inhaled aiy by a mechanism in his body 'that makes Up for the deficiency. -In arty case, since mo t of the newer airliners have pressured cabin’s when they fly at high altltudes. there appears to be no valid objection to travel in modern airlenerw for patients suffering from heart disease. 11..,|k Can yon tell me what Cause. 4 blood in the urine? s Answer: Blood in the urine mhy be- due to many causes, such as jeu-te kidney inflammation, known as acute nephritis; tumor in the kidney; s”tones in the kidney or bladder; infections of the bladder; certgin blood disorders, such as purpura, or other infections. Whenever blood appears in the urine, it is necessery that a thorough examination be , made by the physician to find the source of the trouble. It is impossible tb suggest treatment until the cause h«« been found. ‘ ; / ? ? 1

She la engaged to be married to Cy Leonard, an ambitious young lawyer, who works in a distant city. Having bad speech training at school, Julie aqr-retly hopes to find a career In radio.

She gave his fingers a quick pressure. “Tell me what you’ve been doing in the big city.” "At the office, or after hours?” he asked teasingly. "Both, of course!” she laughed. "Well, I never say much about my work—but you’re , different. There’s a case pending next week that has Mr. Ross worried. I can’t stay too long tomorrow, Julie, because I’ve an appointment with a witness who’s coming in by plane 1 tomorrow evening at seven. Mr. Ross asked me to be at the air- > ‘port when he arrives. I thought ? we might have a leisurely breaks fast, say about ten o’clock. And then ltd leave soon after eleven. Okay with you?” "How about an hour earlier, Cy?” Julie asked quickly. “Oh, can’t wait? That’ll be all right. I can certainly get up before nine! That’H give us plenty of time.” Julie’s heart sank. Would it give her plenty of time to get to the studio before her program was to begin? And wasn’t she lucky to have her script ready ? Maybe she 1 could tell Cy that she had a ten ! o’clock appointment, before they parted this evening! She’d pick her l time. She had a sense of guilt, as though she were doing some- • thing dishonest by concealing the . fact that she was working, j "Does the moon still come up ’ over Lost Lake' tne way it used to last summer?” "Same moon exactly, Cy.”' ' Cy looked at her appreciatively. , “Honey, you’re looking better than - the last time I saw you.

phase of your life, Julie. Good for students to beloni to sororities and frats —it makes good connections for them when they’re in business or in social life.” A typical Cy Leonard remark, Julie thought. What about the fun one got? Did one always have to consider the advantages from a financial or business standpoint? Or use one’s friends for commercial purposes? The country road Into which they had turned was .quiet and beautiful. Stunted pines, bent from heavy storms, outlined the distant silhouette of shore. Julie could hear the throb of the surf, the pounding of the breakers. r Cy turned off the black-topped road onto the gravel of a still narrower side road. This led through arching alder trees apd Douglas fir. The whole area seemed wild and primeval. "It’s still almost like wilderness,” Julie said thoughtfully, sweeping her hand in an embracing gesture. "Did you know there are hills around here that have never been logged?” "A lot of this country is practically untouched. Some day big business back East and the industrial giants will discover that. Then the Northwest is due for an expansion as California was. We expect a lot of that to take place in the next five years. \ Os course, Oregon is already the most rapidly expanding country as far as gain in population is concenied.” "Um. When I think how Bayport has growri! Do you realize that when I started college it was only seven thousand, and now it’s fifteen?” Julie said meditatively. “There are lots of new people ,in town. I hardly know folks on the street.” She thought of the young man she' had seen at the counter of thp Chowder Bowl, Jeffrey Douglas. His dark hair, his deep blue iyes, the w *y he had half smiled! at her, almost shyly—Julie suddenly remembered every detail with the utmost clarity. "Penny?” “Oh!”‘Julie started. She glanced at Cy. It was almost dark now, but in the: glitter of the lighter with which he was lighting his cigaret, she saw the smooth blond waves of his hair,, the good lines of his face. "Oh, I was just thinking of Bayport,” she said. “We’re almost to the lake, Julie. Remember the first time we came here?” . < I , ' She hesitated. She wasn’t sure: Wo you, Cy?” "Os course I do!

we drove out one evening after a big rain. I got stuck. Some romance!” He laughed lightly. It all came back to her with a rush. He must have thought her childish, especially after he had had all that trouble. It was quite late when she’d got in, and her father was waiting downstairs in the living room. Mother was upstairs. They hadn’t appreciated the fact that the two had walked clear into town for help!l She recalled it toli erantly now, but at the time she hed been furious that her parents had worried about her. Cy was quite } capable of taking care of her, she had informed them. And after all, he was a perfect gentleman. Yes, she sighed a little inwardly, Cy was. Indeed, he was a perfect gentleman! The moon was shining brightly, sending down a shaft of golden light on the rippling surface of Lost Lake. It is a romantic spot, Julie thought, drinking in the beauty of the place. Cy drew the car up to the hardpacked parking area. There were two other cars already at the lake. They opened their windows wide qnd sat silently looking at the moonlight on the water. They heard a call: then Julie looked down at the deep end. ' ’ "Someone’s in swimming!” she explained, “it’s still quite a favorite spot to bring one’s girl in the evening.” "Sort of crowded,” laughed Cy. He took her hand and pulled her to him gently. Julie felt queer. She didn't feel excited, nor happy, 4 nor even . especially romantic. Cy kissed her. But there was po warm response in the pressure of her own lips. They did not speak for a few minutes. \ Julie felt his touch on her hand. He was turning the palm up to his lips, kissing it Then he turned her hand over again and touched the ring he had given her. "We’ve never talked about a specific date, Julie. I’ve waited until you finished school Is it too soon now to ask you when you want to get married?” Julie caught her breath. She said, ?Why not wait until next spring f” "If that’s the way ypu want it, Julie. I know the smart thing to do is to get myself financially able to take care of a wife. You must know that I’ve not been able to save very much- the' first year or so out of school.” • “Os course, Cy.

Julie's fiance calls, takes her on a tong moonlight drive, wooes ner ardently without response, and now Julie knows that, her love for him has vanished. . CHAPTER SIX JL CY’S EXTRA years in law school had been expensive, she was sure. His parents were only fairly comfortable—he had had to earn his tuition in the summer. His father was a furniture salesman in a big department store,at Tacoma. She had visited Cy’s parents last summer for two days at the end of July. They lived modestly in a little frame house. \ “I’ve always thought that a couple should have t heir house ready to move into, Julie, but somehow, in my new work, I’ve changed my mind. If you agree, I’d like to have a nice apartment, fairly large and well furnished. Later we can talk in terms of building. Right now prices seem prohibitive.” "Some day, of course, I’d like to have our dream house. But that will depend on the state of! our. finances at the time.” She added lightly, "I’ve lived in a small cottage, and in our present home. I’ve learned that you can be Just as happy in a cottage as in a mansion. One’s surroundings don’t matter nearly so much as the people who live there.” "I admire your philosophy, Julie, but Tm not exactly the ’roses 'round your door’ type. I’ve seen some modern homes recently on the Sound that I’ve been excited over. I’m thinking in terms of having a good decorator take charge of our place and doing it right. In my position, you realize, _ I’m sure that we’ll be entertaining often, and —” Julie scarcely heard the rest of his words. There seemed suddenly to be no real thrill of excitement in the home She had hoped to create some day with Cy. It appeared he was thinking in terms of a handsome backdrop for entertaining clients. She could see in her mind’s eyes dim figures of handsomely dressed men and women, holding coektafl glasses, could hear the faint stir- < rings of soft music, polite conver- ; sation, and she and Cy, the hosts.

on back to town,” said Cy. “You do understand about everything don’t you?” “Oh, yes, Cy. Os course I do!” she tried to sound enthusiastic. He drove to the hotel where her car was parked, and insisted on following her to Laurel Street, to see her safely home. She slipped under the wheel With a sense of. relief. At least she hadn’t spoiled their evening by telling him about her new job. The house was dark save for the dim lamp in the living room. She drove into the double garage and hurried out to close the door before Cy would need to get out. She came quickly up to his big car at the curb. He started to open the door, and she said, “Oh, Cy, everyone’s asleep. I’ll see you in the morning. Incidentally, I’ve Just thought of something. How about an early breakfast —say at eight-thirty? I know you’d like to see the folks, and Mum would be thrilled to have you.” "Os course, darling. It’s a date. Eight-thirty. And then I’ll get an early start back to Seattle.” Julie’s father had an early cup of coffee, then went to his office, premising to return by eight-thirty to visit with Cy. As she arranged a low bowl of roses for the table, Julie could hear scraps of conversation between her mother and Carol Upstairs. Julie was wearing a navy blue sheer dress this morning, with crisp white pique collar and cuffs. She looked very pretty: her eyes were bright, her cheeks softly flushed and her lips crimson.
