Harold Brenton, president of the association, does not expect a recession and discounts the lower trend in the stock market, spying, “August and September Were bad months, but the market is not a barometer of the country's economic health.” The amount of bank loans will probably indicate the road Which bankers will take during the next few months. o — o A fantastic story about the escape of’Lavrenti Beria, the form*er big boss of the sedret police in Russia, is sprfeadlng throughout the world. Many doubt that the second-top man in the KrehaHn outfit, could have escaped the country. All we know in this country is that Beria was ousted from i his police job and thrown in Iprls1 . ■ . . on.

Caution in Use of Penicillin
By HERMAN N. BUNBESIN, M.D. THERE seem to be reports of new antibiotics almost every time dne opens a newspaper or medical journal these days. Bait the early promise of penicillin, fulfilled a hundred-fold, makes it aftill the backbone of the disease fighters. . Penicillin Allergy There is an increasing group of people, however, who are allergic or sensitive to penicillin. Persons who exhibit this sensitivity can become extremely in, and some fatalities have been reported with Its use. This does not mean that the use of penicillin should be discontlnueck but rather that it should be used with caution In persons with a marked allergic history. The regular forms of the drag Should not be used on anyone who has had a refection from peiriclllin. However, there have been types of penicillin perfected that do not cause too many reactions. One of these is known as ephenamine penicillin O. It gltes Wry few reactions and is definitely *. indicated for use With persons Who have an allergic history. Ant ih is tamine Drugs i Because of the increasing number of reactions, an Idea wfes worked out to combine bne of the ’ antihistamine drugs to the diluent used in mixing penicillin, jft Xlslng ibis combination in fen
L.- ’ ► dent Eisenhower’s consent must t be given before any atomic weapons can be sent overseas. Atomic canhons firing atomic i shells are capable of a higher de--1 gree of efficiency and greater range than conventional artillery ; weapons. They are also highly efficient when firing conventional ammunition. Army Secretary Stevens points out that these weapons must not be considered as a subs tints for other guns or forces which are needed in great number. The arrival of the atomic cannon should have a good psychological effect on Europe. It will let them know that we are ready to place our best weapons and our resources into the effort to deter Communist aggression. The news that they may have to face atomic cannons may make the Red leaders hesitate before starting a fight. 0 - o— —- War To Campus:— Nearly 200,000 Korean veterans are enrolling in colleges and universities under provisions of the CI Bill. This influx of veterans into our colleges will continue for several years and increase as more apd more young men are discharged from the armed forces and decide to Start or resume their college studies. The idea of providing educational opportunities for those who have served their country is a sound one. It is away bf expressing our gratitude to those who have sacrificed a great deal for the defense of the country and the cause of freedom. J For some time there has been <■ , ■ ■ i < a shortage of teachers, engineers and other professional people. The returning servicemen who finish their college studies should help to meet that shortage. The advantages they receive will help them to advance their own careers and at the same time make a larger contribution to- the national welfare. I. If the veterans of Korea are Hke those of World Wa? II they will be good students, eager to learn and use the opportunity granted to them. It is a long way from the battlefields of Korea to the quiet campus life and the transition will call for adjustment on the part of the veterans. By displaying the same qualities that made them good soldiers they will succeed in the world of ideas.

' CHAPTER TWENTY -THREE SIT TIGHT, Dr. Brownlee had kept telling himself. Let things Work out whichever way they’re destined. But he reckoned his worry had gone a lot deeper than Mb’s or Burke Griffin’s, though he wondered tt they maybe knew more than they let on. Hadn’t said much, only that some stranger named Ruxton had claimed that Purdy was a prisoner. Hadn’t said why they th oug fa t Purdy was at Torgin’s or why that had got them all lathered. But his duty bad Shaped up mighty plain. If he,didn’t head out to Slash 7, Griffin was likely to, rheumatism and all.

Then, too, there was Laura to think about —Laura skallyhootlng around the basin somewhere and him closing his mind to her antics because tie didn’t want to think too hard about what had got Laura stirred up. But he surely had a grandfather’s duty to think about, what with young Luke and his Clara both dead nearly twenty years. it nad been a black day when that stagecoach had overturned c.ossing the flooded river with Luke and Clara Crapped to ft. He’d known his duty towards Laura at that time, tout the hospital had. kept him so busy that he never even shacked out of his winter underwear till somebody came along and told him it was spring. God, the way he’d worked over Duke and Clara the day they’d fetetoed him fast to that far Irtver bank. And they tooth might have lived if he could have got them to the new hospital. Not enough time for that. He’d wanted that hospital so long, knowing how many Bootjack sick ones would stand a better chance With til that new, shiny equipment so close at hand; but the hospital hadn’t been handy enough to save young Luke and Clara. Not by the length et eternity. It all came back to him tn a black tide of memory. Well, no man was without sin. and maybe that was part of his punishment. He’d been a humbler man ever since, and a harder working one., ,

Troubles tn the pest, and troubles ahead. Mustn’t let ms mind dwell too much on one kind or the other. Time enough to plan what he’d do a little later. Slash 7 was sUli somewhere yonder. Might as wen make a holiday out of the few miles between him and the ranch. Nothing much stirring down below, not even a wisp ot smoke showing from the ranch-house, and the corrals nigh empty save for some calves. Sick calves. Well, he had that against Torgin, and maybe Torgin wouldn't be too truculent, considering. Not that he’d make any bargain with, Torgin that would weigh on bis conscience afterwards. No, siree. A messy place, Slash 7. ; Too bad Torgin couldn’t keep his yard clean: he wasted enough time taxing around the Mannington saloons and as tikely as not bis crew roundsided while the ranch grew messier. Mighty sharp turns to these switch backs. Now where was Slash 7*s crew? Gone out to work already ? Couldn’t be too far past regular breakfast time. One fellow there, sitting before the cookshack with his head in his hands. Lean looking. Didn’t recollect that one. "Howdy,* Brownlee said as he rode up. The man lifted his face from his hands. Blue eyes—icy blue—the coldest eyes Brownlee had ever seen. A pair of pointed eyebrows. Mephistophelean eyebrows. The man said, “And who are you?” "Doc Brownlee, from Mannington." Icy-Eyes showed him a twisted smile as though there was a big joke to be shared. "She’s gone, Doc, and Manning's gone with her, and they’ve taken Purdy. You’re a few hours too late; you missed the fireworks." Fear stirred In Brownlee’s belly like a great snake. “And Torgln’s taken the crew after them?" Icy-Eyes lifted his glance to-' ward the empty corrals. "Judge Tor yourself. That’s what I’ve had to do. I slept through the main show." "From that bump ton your temple? Let me have a look at It." "I didn’t send for you, Doc." “Navsr mind." Brownlee got
Urgent Problems Are Faced By President Labor Policy First On Eisenhower List WASHINGTON UP —Tax, agricultural and tabor policies plus the overall problems of the new budget broke the vacation spell for President Eisenhower today on his return to the White House. It is nearly seven weeks since the President left steamy Washington tor cool Colorado. Only 15 weeks remain before the second session of the 83rd congress meets to complete the record which the Republican party will ask the voters to approve in November, 1954. The time is short. Speaking in Boston Monday night, the President was unable to make any specific policy announcement. Labor policy apparently has first call on the President’s list. Chairman H. Alexander Smith R-N.J. of the sbnate labor committee was today’s most significant White House visitor. The President needs a secretary of labor and is looking for a new approach \o .revision of the Taft-Hartley act. Farm policy Is equally urgent. Secretary Ezra T. Benson last week promised that farmers will be protected against a price - cost squeeze. But he was not prepared to say how It will be done. The overall budget problem always is on the White House doorstep. Now the time for penciling in tentative figures has come. With it come difficult decisions such as: 1 How much for national defense, and how to divide it? Shall the federal government seriously undertake the almost unimaginable cost of effective civil defense for the scores of thickly peopled A-bomb targets? The treasury has announced for |954 half a tax program. That is tto permit lapse of the excess profits and a 10 per cent cut in individual income levies. A study group is seeking the other half of the program—how to make up the loss and to balance the budget. That is the hard part. * ' Other groups are studying foreign aid, tariffs, universal military training, the overlap of federal and state taxing and other authorities, high costs of medical care, overall antitrust policies, race relations—to name only the major policy questions still unanswered.
