Public Enemy No. 1 is Thomas Nash, a tattooed degenerate coni vict, accused of shooting little Bobby o o Analyzed in terms of money the difference between winning or losing a world series Is just ?2,102.26. A full share for the champion Yankees amounted to |B,280.68 and for the runner-upf>Dod-gers, 16,178.42. After each player pays his tax- he -should have enough money left to buy a sporty new car or take a winter Mediterranean cruise with his wife. ■ o o The United States and Great Britain ‘evidently brought about a crisis in the ancient port city of, Trieste, when the two governments decided to pull out from control of the city and turn it over to Italy. One half of the city is controlled by Yugoslavia and according to diplomatic channels the Adriatic capital will be. governed jointly by Italy and Yugoslavia. Trouble may ensue from the new partition of the city. o o ,Gen. Mark Clark returning home from Korea to end his 40-\ year career as a soldier who fought in three wars, summed up his opinion of the Communists in these words: “They are a bunch of cheaters and murderers wherever you find "’ chances for peace, the famed general said: “It’s up to the Communists. If they want peace, they’ll get it.’’ Following his official retirement this month. Gen. Clark intends to write a book of his war experiences. It should be a best seller. I — t —o —O~—Anderson Intends to be the first city in Indiana to regulate storage of old ice-boxes by ordinance. The council in that city has acted favorably on sudh an ordinance. Regardless of law, householders should not lst an old ice box sit around the house without removing the lock or hinges from the doors. The last session of the legislature could have cleared this whole matter for the state if it had adopted a law .which had already passed the house by a 76-0 vote. If you have one of these death traps around the house, dismantle it. ' . ' n

The cost of living will not go down next year if congress enacts a manufacturer’s .sales tax. A sales tax will boost the cost of all commodities, except food, which will be exempt from any excise or tax levy. The government will have to raise eight billion dollars to offset the loss in corporation excess profits taxes and the ten percent cut for individuals. Congressional candidates running for re-election will be faced with the high cost of living issue. o o Assistant Secretary of Agriculture John H. Davis told dairy men in Syracuse, N. Y„ it is time they gave themselves and their, customers a “better break” by adopting “pricing and other policies” to step up sales of their pnxlucts. In apparent reference to margarine inroads on the butter market, he said “If something becomes outmoded by a new development and must give way to it, let’s not prolong the agony of making the shift.” Presumably the government is going out of the butter business. O 0 Nothing is more loathsome to a Communist than private property. When the Reds came to power in Russia they set out to remove the Vfefy'fcOHcept ot private property from the minds of the people. Peasants who claimed the land they had worked on for generatiohs were dealt with ruthlessly. In theory, group ownership became the law of the land, but actually private property had to be permitted as a reward by Lenin and later by Stalin. Despite the efforts of the party, however, people in Russia still want their dwn house. Few Russians ever get the satisfaction of owning their own homes and if they do they are faced with the constant possibility that the laws will change and they will be deprived of what they have built and cherished. The fact that they still hold to the hope of owning a home_is an indication that they will never really be imbued with Communism.
