When American producers take a whipping in market prices and then find imported products of the same type on the shelves they Question present practices. We exported 813-plus million in pork products and in the same period imported 178-plus million in pork. There is cause for eyebrow raising, isn’t there? While we cannot get a complete picture of the import - export business, that Which meets the eye needs some explanation. The trend of farm imports over the last two decades has been upward and it appears that the rise will not be reversed in the immediate future. Could it be that rising farm costs provide the magnet that draws foreign Imports? Maybe we need a “Buy American” campaign again.

A final salute was given to the last survivor of the Grand Army of the Republic. As taps were sounded for Albert Woolson It is our obligation to finally bury the issues that embittered the two sections of our country. Conditions do not seem to warrant or excuse the continuation of the civil rights issue even though certain selfish institutions would continue it Indefinitely. As our memories dim in regard to the GAR. so should the bitterness which was ao thoroughly engendered through the post-war years. Let us think of the issue sensibly and dispose of it in the same fashion. 0 o_— Modern farm machinery has produced some great changes in time consumed on different jobs. For example: in 1920 it took an average of 2.6 hours to plow one acre, today 1.8 of an hour is required: it formerly necessitated 7.0 hours to harvest and crib an acre of corn, today 1.7 hours are sufficient for the same task: 5.0 hours were needed to harvest and store an acre of wheat while the same area is cared for today in .8 of an hour. Other similar statistics point out the reasons for larger farms and greater effeciency in their operation. 1980 will probably find remote controls and other devices which will enable the farmer to produce still larger crops from his front pdrch. 0 0— — Statistics are a “dime a dozen” when one reads of tie extensive planning necessary for a national convention. An army of 4,300 news, radio and television reporters will be present in both Chicago and San Francisco. The * Republicans rate 260 new autos for transportation while the Democrats only get the use of 225. The latter figure is probably offset by the tact that most of the 225 are air-conditioned. 3,000 extra telephones will be installed in the Cow Palace at San Francisco with 19 extra switchboards. In Chicago, the Democrats will have 4,000 phones available. Add the installations for television plus food and entertainment facilities and it all points toward two big events for the next couple of weeks. Finally, don’t lose sight of the prime reasons for the conventions, namely, candidates for the 1956 presidential election.

Binunis A group Os doctors in the Midwestern suburb of Burbank try to establish a tree screening clinic despite lack of money and opposition from the County Hospital. Dr. John Blaniin. a strong booster tit the project, returns from a meeting and tells bis wife. Helen, that enough money has bun donated by .the wealthy Mrs. Slice Milburn to set ‘up the clinic. :rs. Milburn donates the money to spite the Women's Club because they voted against helping the project Dr. Chad Mays, brilliant but eccentric young medical administrator, is hired to organize the clinic—and fight the opposition, led by influential Dr. Claude Wilkins-Smith, head of County Hospital. Dr. Mays prefers to remain i snidentifled until he can Investigate setup. Sitting in the park near the clinic. Dr. Mays meets a youngster named Johnny who Is brought to the park every day by bls mother, a pretty, young blonde named Lacey. Mays accidentally meets Newell McCrillis. a newspaper reporter, and his wife. Stella. He promises McCrillis a a good story socn. Meanwhile, two young interns from County Hospital tell Dr. Blandin they suspect Dr. Wilkins-Smith of malpractice. They ask Dr. Blandin to present their facts and charges to thS Policy and Practices Board of the Medical Society. Dr. Blandin agrees. The board votes to steer clear of the matter. Blandtn decides to prove the charges alone, but Dr. Mays convinces him that it la • job for him to handle. CHAPTER 11 CHAD MAYS’ park bench became so much his property that he resented Its occupation by anyone else when he came to claim it for that half-hour each day. Johnny also regarded it as Chad’s, and would seek him there. . Chad was equally concerned it Johnny were missing. And his companion. She was such a pretty girl, so poised, so—so pleasant to look at in her neat cotton frocks. She didn’t appear to notice Chad, though she was constantly aware of Johnny, and must have considered the man when the child sat beside him, or chattered to him from his tricycle. The youngster was nicely trained, too, with a mind of his own, but accustomed to obey. One day, however, he chose not to hear Lacey’s call, and Chad, for his own purposes, didn’t send Johnny on his dutiful way. So the young woman closed her book, rose from the bench and came firmly through sunlight and shadow to fetch her charge. “Johnny,” she said determinedly, from ten feet away. Johnny pushed close to Chad’s thigh. “Come and sit down here," he offereq hospitably. Chad rose. “Would you?" The girl came ito them. “It’s 1 tfOM W wenx home.” Nervous-

Tm afraid he learned that from me, ma’am. You meet all kinds in the park, you know." She laughed, too. “Yes —I—are you from Texas?" He looked rueful. “Won’t Arkansas do?" “Will it have to?” She was simost mischievous. It was the first of several such discussions. Now they shared a bench by mutual agreement, watched Johnny together — and talked. Not really personally, yet by the middle of the month Lacey knew what Chad’s likes and dislikes were, in what he believed. One afternoon in mid-June, Chad came, bringing Johnny a hand-puppet, a monkey, and spent ten minutes showing the boy bow to work it Then, when Johnny pelted off to show it to his friends, Chad turned to Lacey, his arm along the benchback, and asked her calmly if she would marry him. She turned so white that his hand cupped her far shoulder to steady her. The shoulder and arm were bare, and soft and warm — and at his touch, color flared back into her cheeks. “1 wish you hadn’t — joked that way,” she said regretfully. “1 wasn't joking, I'm thirty years old, and you're the first girl Tve ever asked to marry me. I meant it." She lifted her shoulders helplessly. “Why — as your first proposal — should you ask me T" “Because,” said Chad softly, his voice vibrant, “you're sweet You’re innocent Unspoiled . . .” She laughed uneasily. “You don’t even know my name ...” “It’s Lacey.” “Lacey what?" “What difference does that make ? You don’t know my name, either. Qr where 1 came from.” “Arkansas.” She spoke so softly that the word was only a breath between her parted lipa He sat thoughtful. “Maybe you should know my background,” he conceded, “if we’re going to be married ...” She turned a little to face him, and he aat for another silent min-

Marlin Fired From Conservation Post Top Enforcement Officer Is Fired INDIANAPOLIS (UP)—Conservation director Harley G. Hook today fired Col. Edwin K. Merlin, the department's chief enforcement officer. In his dismissal letter, Hook stated he thought it was “improper” for a county chairman of a political party to hold the post. Marlin, who said he was surprised by the firing, is Randolph county Republican chairman. He said he felt “I have done a 1 good job, and I’ll let the record ' stand for Itself.” He added he planned to “go back home and work very hard for the Republican party.” Only last week. Governor Craig ordered the department’s 110 enforcement officers taken out of politics. However, the initial announcement said the move did not include dismissal of Marlin. Marlin, a veteran of 10 years as a state police trooper, formerly was deputy director of Indiana civil . defense. He was appointed, to the conservation post by Craig in 1953. •

But Dr. Mays — I’ve read about Mm in the newspapers. He’s a famous man.” “Would you marry that stuffy Dr. Mays, and not listen to Johnny’s friend, Chad?” Lacey put her hand softly upon his, drew It away. ’Td not marry anyone 1 don’t know,” she said gently. Abruptly, Chad got to his feet “How are you going to get to know me?” he demanded. “If you can’t talk to a guy, and know whether he’s telling you the truth?” She ‘met his gaze bravely, but said nothing. And with a muttered exasperated “So long,” Chad turned on his heel and strode away from her. He did not look back. And of course it did not occur to him at the time that he was the one being completely unreasonable. (To Be Contused!

Nation Opens Arms To World Refugees ■ Half Million From Ashes Os Europes 1 By JACK V. FOX United Preu Staff Correspondent 1 NEW YORK (UP) — One of the great untold stories of the post- < war decade is how the United States opened its arms to half a ; million refugees from the ashes of Europe. It is the story of the great melting pot boiling again, of how those displaced persons found a home in a strange new land. They settled In every state in the union. They went into almost every trade and profession. One became a millionaire within five years. Others remained impoverished. Some raised children as American as doughnuts and cider. Others clung to their own ethnic groups here, have not yet learned English. Some went to farms, far more to cities. They found adjusting to American customs more difficult than learning the language or making a living. Many meekly reported to police. That is what they would have done at home. Most at first avoided joining any organizations, political or otherwise. They had found that dangerous. They were tremendously resourceful, for they had learned survival in the wake of Nazi and Communist armies. The first boatload of 800 sailed past the Statue of Liberty into New York harbor on May 20, 1946, aboard the S. S. Marine Flahser. They were the vanguard of some 42.000 who came into the United States under President Truman's executive order of December, 1945, and the 508,180 more who entered under the displaced persons act of 1948. The vast majority came from Europe, only 2,863 from Asia. Immigration department figures show the greatest number came from Poland — 139.436. Others came from Germany, 68,420; Italy, 49,859; Yugoslavia, 41,700; Soviet Union, 38,241, Latvia, 36,489. Only 1,125 came from France, 8 from Finland 7 from Norway. Many, regardless of the nation they left, were of German origin. Os th§.-total, 154.463 stayed ih New' York state. But? they scattered across the nation —53,690 to Illinois, 34,743 to Pennsylvania, 25,004 to Michigan. 23,432 to California, 24,075,t0 Ohio. Nevadp got only 214, Wyoming 422, Utah 428. The United Hebrew- immigrant aid society made a survey of 102 on that first boat. If showed "that 98 have become citizens. 3 have died and 1 could not take the examination because he had become blind. It showed that of 56 who arrived single. 48 had married and borne 88 children. Their earning is now SIOO a week. The classic success story is that of Leon Jolson. He was 36 when he came here in February, 1947, a refugee from Roland who had survived two Nazi concentration camps. He spoke no English and owned only the clothes he wore. Jolson settled in New York's Bronx with his wife, Anna, and began selling needles and thread door to door. He volunteered to oil and adjust sewing machines and studied their intricacies. Money was so short he and his wife lived for days On a diet of oranges and cornflakes. Then he wrote the Necchi Sewing Machine Co. in Italy, and, with $2,000 borrowed from the Hebrew society, set up an agency here. Within five years he was selling 5.000 models per month and had I IM v s & I . < I ' PBB- W THESE two beauties are enjoying the all-American favorite —the hot dog—during an intermission at a showboat musical in Jones Beach, Long Island, N.

became a millionaire. Others were helped by other vast refugee organizations such as the Catholic relief services, the Protestant church world services, the Lutheran refugee service and the American federation of international institutes and international refugee committee. Few have even thought of returning to their native land and even fewer have done so. Yes, it is a tremendous story of the heart of America and a fulfillment of the words of the great statue that go: "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. - “The wretched refuse of your teeming shore. "Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me. "I lift my lamp beside the golden door!" (Next: A refugee family in Chicago.) Final Tribute Paid To Archbishop Noll Funeral Held-For - Fort Wayne Bishop -FORT WAYNE (UP)—ArchbiS: hop John Francis Noll was eulogized today as a "very simple man to whom other bishops looked tor guidance and help.” Addressing a packed Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception, Samuel Cardinal StritCh of Chicago said there was “nothing hard to understand” in Archbishop Noll, who died last Tuesday following a two-year illness. He was 81 years old. “His humility was so unaffected that it became a habit which permitted him to tell interestingly of his works without the slightest insinuation of avin glory," said Cardinal Stritch. He said the Archbishop "will he remembered for his gigantic work in apostolate of the Catholic press.
