No matter how hard we try to keep our diet we are never able to resist Giri Scouts selling peanuts.

As in every previous year, the newspapers report the first hunter killed on the first day of the hunting season. —-o—o There are now officially 1.4 million more women than men in the United States. Even though this is a Democracy, we know better than to blame the majority sex for all of the troubles in the country.

Russia has used two favorite tricks of dictatorial governments. While this “ attention of the World has been focused on the Middle East crisis and while other governments talked, she acted. By the time a decision is arrived at there will be no decision left to make. _ It is believed that the Hungarians can continue their present small scale fighting for only a matter of days. No firm action of any kind is in the making.

Another good reason to shop in Decatur is the fact that sneak thieves are active in Fort Wayne. One Decatur lady is reported to have lost S9O when her pocketbook was stolen while she was shopping in that city. o—o— The success or failure of the 1956 Community Fund will depend upon the efforts of the solicitors this week and the coopera- I tion of the citizens. High school groups from both schools and the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts are lending a hand to the drive Thursday night. With the youth of the City solidly back of the program it can not fail. Decatur is one of many communities in the country combine several civic and Welfare programs into one campaign for a two-fold purpose. One is to eliminate small drives. The other is to make certain each of the budgets in the fund is reasonable and necessary. Participants in the fund must prove their need in advance which is proof ‘to contributors that the gifts will not be wasted. You feel you have done your part to make Decatur a better community if you contribute. ——o o Continuation of the present rate of military strength of 2.8 million men is called for in the new Defense Department budget to be submitted to Congress next January. Earlier, a reduction of from 112,000 to 168,000 men had been anticipated. The difference in cost to the taxpayers wilf be about a half billion dollars. The Pentagon faas not yet decided whether ttie nett War, if it comes, will be atomic in which a few technicians would be necessary for a few hours or whether it will be the old fashioned man-to-man. war of the past. In the Near East crisis nq. one could determine where to drop an atomic or hydrogen bomb. Yet at the same time, fear of Russia caused our atomic bomber fleet to. go on the alert. Until the time comes, no one will know which kind of a defense system to use so our present program is an expensive mixi tore of beta. Could it be that aftl er all else failed to preserve peace, wars are obsolete because they are too expensive?
