MacArthur, want a man ’of identical , name living in Wisconsin to enter in the presidential preference pri- , mary In that state. Gen. Mac- - Arthur has refused the use of bis name On the ballot. His supporters think that the name itself will be enough to win the state’s slate of delegates to the GOP convention, but the trick doesn’t appear 7 too cldver from this side of the Wisconsin line. : <-V , ’ . ■ o—-o The jhigh cost of living, or it could be the cost of high, living, is shown in the case of an Ala-, bpina planation owner.

Recently his name was. added to a list of possible presidential candidates, but the popular Hoosier: executive 'discounts anything like that.

— .... . . Drug Addiction Usually Personality Problem

DRUG addiction has been much in the,’news the last few months. Reports of school-age children, | in danger of becoming addicts should; make everyone recognize the gr^a!.danger to society from < this habit. .’ There is need for more people to learfi the underlying paused of • this serious disorder, arid also the ways to cure it. people become addicts? The Underlying- reason almost always has to do with a personality problem. Usually, -people who become addicted are the eeeklng type, or else they have psych on eurottfi personalities. It is extremely rare to find an addict who is an emotionally mormal. ' mature; person. It is a strange fact about addiction that persons who learn about drugs and begin their use through, associating with are much more likely to Jbecome sons who receive the drtigfc from a doctor to relieve pain. AdgUction is /Something like a cetitapgious disease, usually spreading from person to person. , ! -■ ’ ' . * Theft}* is another danger, too—the\ tide of one drug ccnnmonlV leads to others.

Eisenhower is w illing to become the Republican candidate for president, if he receives, “A clear cut call to political duty.*’: ‘ 4 M • ' ' !; . I I ’d •’ .-The General’s statement was. made from his headquarters in 1 aris, in reply to the announcement from Sen. Henry Cabot Lodge that Eisenhower’s name would be entered in the New Hampshire primary March 11. As the supreme commander of A Hied forces in tha Atlantic Pact organisation in Europe, Gen. Eisenhower said he would not reEign bis charge to run for office. ' j He explained: “Under no circumstances will I ask for relief from this assignment in order to seek , nomination for political offide and 1 shall not participate in the pie-convention activities of others * v.ho may have such an intention: r ’ < ■ ,f]» with respect to me.” Clearly, this I position means that if Gen. Eisenhower is “drafted” I|| will run and if elected will serve is president, ' Republican ranks are now split between the Sen. Taft and Eisenhower wings of t ie party, along with the supporters of Harold „ Stassen and Gov. Warren O?; California. It appears that the antiTaft forces have the Ohio senator and presidential, candidate in the nut-cracker, ready to crush his lite-long ambition to become presi-. dent of the United States. The Eisenhower supporters abd boosters may not be able to roll up g "draft Ike movement’ ’in the Chicago convention. Sen. Taft has the conservative wipg of the party and strong leaders in I! Indiana, Ohio and Illinois, the latter coinmando being Col. Robbrtj McCormick. The TaftEisenhpwer prie-con-vention fight will be one of the most spectacular seen in . America. It will out-do the Gen. Wood and Gov. Uowdfcn “fight to the death” in the convention of the early twenties. If Gen. Eisenhpwer is nominaledZthe country may see a realignment of political fdrcles and possibly an “old guard” { liepublican candidate.

• CHAPTER SIXTEEN MELICK was recalled by: her voice to Louise, whose small quivering smile was wavering across the empty prettiness ot her Anxious face. “Well, 1 was just going to say I thought it might be nice, ’perhaps—that is, I told Emma we might nave coffee in the lining room if you all —ana, well, 1 didn’t know, Alvin, put you said something yesterday about trying i pne ot those liqueurs that you brought from France and so—but it’s whatever you want—" “Come on, Mom! Say what you mean," Joe teased her. “You would Ii kea small snifter yourself, wouldn’t you? Tess up, now. A great little drinker, Mom is,” he said to Anne. “J<ever guess it by her looks. But you have to watch her. You sure do." “Joe! You know I never..." Her voice trailed into a faint laugh as if she suddenly realized she \iiad been silly to take Joe seriously. , ’ Anne looked down at the Shrinking woman at the foot of the table and Lett pity stir in her heart, her band out of\Joe’s, she [said, “We're in no hurry, Mrs Mehck. After all, Joe and I have all afternoon. Let’s have, our coffee in ‘ the living room the way you planned it. 1 think that would be nice. Mr. Melick can decide for himself about the liqueur. I don’t care one way or the other. But coffee does top off a mea| the best of anything.” She was, pleased to see Louise’s face light up dimly, and, stepping forward to link per arm through the older woman’s as she rose, Anne thought, 1 can imagine being a daughter-in-law to her much more easily than to him. And if I were, I’d back her up this way all the time. 1 wouldn't let those two badger her the way they do. Joe does it good-naturedly but he doesn’t. I’d build her up, if I jived here. I’d build her up until she could take care of herself. | I For a brief moment she saw this as the raison d'etre of her marriage to Joe. And the next moment she thought, But we wouldn’t live here. •’ We'd have our own place. I couldn’t stand it otherwise. And then she wondered what was the matter with her, anyway, to be having such ideas. Was it just because Donald Kent hrid kissed her with such disturbing results this morning that she was flinging as far from him in her mind as»possible? She dismissed Donald and bent her head to hear Louise’s murmured words. “You’re very sweet. Thank you.” Behind them Alvin Melick moved to unlock the lower part pi the sideboard. As he pulled out jtwp bottles and held them up to the light, he w£s copscioujj of a feeling of vague irritation. He could hardly explain it. But somehow, in son>e indefinable way in the last moment or two, h& jjad been diminished in his own sight. v&u might almost sdy put d&an. While Louise had been elevated.

No need to call Henry tor this. Anne’s riot used to such style.” ' With this he lelt better and, leading the way with a bottle in each hand, he tramped heavily down the hall into the living room after the women. It was late that same Sunday afternoon when Joe’s red roadster screeched to a sudden halt down by the ' park opposite the station, and a girl, pretty, young, and blonde, glared at him out of furious blue eyes from the curb to which she had sprung to safety. “Hey! What do you think you’re doin’, Joe Melick!” He stopped whistling— “She didn’t say Yes: She didn’t say No” — and leaned toward her across the wheel. He was feeling good- The song told why. He and Anne had nad a nice afternoon and she hadn’t pulled away as she’ usually did when he kissed her good-by. To be sure, she hadn't shown much enthusiasm, either, but he knew how to handle the slow ones. Just give ’em time. It was In a mood ot elation that he had started out for a purposeless ride just to let, off steam. “Do 1 know you?” he asked now. "You bet you know mb! Don’t try to give me that stuff I been up to your house plenty.”! “I couldn’t have been there then. I'd never forget.” | “Well—” Sdmewhat mollified, she permitted a smile t|o reveal her dimples. “Maybe you wasn’t there. Maybe you was off to college. But I been there, all right. Ma used to go up to do cleaning before you got that colored couple you got now.! And I’d stop by for her after school. Boy! What a house!” She smiled again.; “Edna’s the name. Edna Borowski.” . ’ \ i “Well, Edna, how about a little buzz around ? Just to prove there’s no hard feelings.” Officer Michael Flynn, who had heard the screech pf brakes from the diner where he had been getting a cup ot coffee, now' strolled toward them, idly swinging his night stick. He had a healthy contempt for Joe Melick and a definite interest in Edna, who lived over the drugstore in the apartment next to that of his own folks; and his eyes, with a little? hard glint in them, belied the casual indifference of his tone. “What’s goin’ on here?” Edna turned to him, her pretty face flushed With pleasure and excitement “You’re a witness.

I’m good with the girls." ' Mike turned to Edna who had already opened the door and flipped into the seat beside Joe. /’He's telling you. He says he’s, good —with the girls.” t Edna laughed. “Yeah!" > Mike stepped closer and held onto one side of the car a moment as Joe speeded up his engme. “I meant that.” £ “Meant what?” Si “About not exceeding the Limits.” , V ' “The speed limits.

In t!he back seat next to a dark-eyed Italian lad sat a gumchewing, restless blonde, Edna Borowski. ~ He had seen her often standing near the railroad tracks talking to Michael Flynn, the policeman, when he was on duty. Edna, he f gyred, might be a disturbing element in his room, at least among the boys. But there was always someone like that to reckon with. Ho knew a few others, too. The Negro buy who was the son of the couple that worked at the Melicks. Gus was his name. Gus Jenkins. Then there was Cynthia Randall, recently moved to Crestwood from the south.

His mind teemed with the things he .wanted to say to therm But show to let them know all that he was thinking and feeling ? How to make them realize that the heart and center of what they would get from him was somehow moral? He reached for his roll-call book. He finished the roll call, laid it down and, for a moment, stood silent. Something of his intentness communicated itself to the class. They sat waiting and curious, eyeing their new teacher with reAt least he was young. And god d-looking. He walked around the end of his desk and perched on its corner, one leg swinging. ; “I want to ask you something,” he said. “It’s not a question out of thd book, it’s out of my hea<j. And I wantsyou to get an answer out 0f your heads. What are you here for? Do.you know? Have you an answer? A reason?” He looked around. There was a startled stir of surprise and amusement. H#p Maxfield waved an arm, grinning. "Guess we’re here because we darn well to be,” he said. “Nd.” Donald smiled back at him. “No, you don’t. You’re seniors. Every one of you is more than 16, the sege limit requiring your attendance here. You, Hap, are here, I suspect, because you like to play football, and the school offers you that chance. But is that the only reason? After football, what?” He waited. Hap grinned again and answered promptly. “Basketball. Then baseball” The class laughed alcmd. “CMC,” Donald sa|d. “But then what?" Hap scratched his head, his face screwed up somewhat ruefully. “Well, college football, maybe. If I can get in anywhere, that is." *YCs, you can, Hap!” Edna Borowski called out. “They give athletic scholarships, d o n’t forget! You don’t need to know any more’n you do!"

They were settling down now to ad enjoyment of what appeared to be a social hour, fie spoke quickly “Why are you here, Miss Borowski? You’re not,going on tp play football at college. Why do you come here day after day?" Edna shrugged. Then she offered an answer in unabashed frankness. “Because my I‘op would skin the hide off me if J[ didn’t graduate. That’s why.’* '. Donald questioned a few more. The answers vaned. —So I can go on to college-—f have to have a diploma from tjiere to get l into nurses’ training.—You can’t get no kfnd of a job without yob at least graduate from high school.—But no one seemed to have caught the adercurrent of his thought. He ed again. “Most qf you think, then, that it’s a necessary preparation for life. But what are you trying—-oir wanting—to get, out of life aside from a job?" He sensed, n<j»w, a pricking to alertness, a stimulation to faint thought. Carlotta led the way with some timidity. “I—well, s I guess we all want happiness $s much as anything,* she said. J ' Donald ucidde(|. “And happiness for each of you I is something disc ferent, of! course. Some of yob want a honie and a family. Some of you want to travel. Some of you want success in your chosen field of endeavdr. But are those tilings, in themselves, enough to make happiness? Isn't something more required? Think of the people you know have exactly what yop axe striding for: homes, families, money — Which is, unfortunately, the criterion of -success in. a job—do they seem happy to you as you want tci be happy?” He stood up and faced them, his blue eybs holding a flashing command for them to give thoughtful answers. “Who knows a truly happy person?” ? 1 ' Carlotta put tp her hand again.’ *!Yes, £liss Strorig?” •|l think Dr.' Atwood is a truly happy person.” Ah! And why did she think so? What was there about him. that led her to this belief? How did a happy person like that, make her feel whgn she was with him? The class sat, astonished and interested, as Carlotta tried to answer the barrage of questions Don-, aid put to her. Presently other hands went up. Other people had’ ideas. They had decided that this wap kind of fun: Certainly it was better than talking about the lesEdna, listening in the back row, her jaws going, whispered to the Italian, Toby Rossetti, “What’s the matter with that guy ?
