I know a young woman and young man whom I should like to see become acquainted. How can I properly arrange a meeting? A. Your best procedure is to invite them to your home together for lunch or dinner, or to a party that you are giving. Q. If a woman is being married for the second time, would it be proper for her teen-age son to give her away and her daughter to serve as her maid-of-honor? A. This would not only be very nice and proper, but it would also indicate her children’s approval of her marriage.

Russia In Throes Os Internal Scrap Red Regime Nears 40th Anniversary United Press Staff Correspondent LONDON <UP> — Russia’s Communist regime nears the 40th anniversary of the October revolution Nov. 7 drunk with its newly gained and awe - inspiring world power, but clearly in the throes of a fresh internal struggle for supreme leadership. Looking back over this eventful 40 years, the regime can boast of havipg taken Russia a long way since a handful of old Bolsheviks stormed the Czarist Winter Palace on that gray fall day in 1917. The 40 years of Communist rule have witnessed one of the most spectacular drives in modern history. They have seen some world shaking events and some of the most surprising achievements — some of them launched on a sea of blood and human agony. Spectacular Party History Russia, which 40 years ago lay prostrate and dismembered after years of bloodletting in World War 1,, today stands as one of the world's two military colossi, rivalling the United States for military might and aspiring at overtaking her economically. Her expansionism dwarfs Western empire building of modern history, with her tentacles stretched deep into Europe and Asia. Communist regimes, many of them still looking to Moscow for guidance, now control more than one-third of the world’s total population. Blood, starvation, wholesale extermination, degradation of human rights have been among the stepping stones to success. For years, the Russian people themselves had to endure the grimness of Josef Stalin's . dictatorship with its purges and concentration camps. His death brought the first glimpses of a better life. Today they are again faced by the uncertainties of a newly tightening regime. Challenger Os U.S. Thus 40 years after the revolution Russia stands provocatively as challenger of the United States, with the launching of the first satellite into outer space as the crowning result of her efforts. But she too has her problems. They center around internal rifts, cracks in the seams of the expanded Soviet empire,, the chai- 1 lenge to her ideological leadership and the emergence of ‘national Communism” among her satellites. In the distance looms tjie rising star of Red China as a future challenge for Communist leadership. Today, China is an ally. Whethef that will last when China is no longer economically dependent on Russia, no one can say. Russia’s most recent gain has been growing influence in the Middle East, until only a short time back an exclusive preserve of the Western sphere of influence. The past four decades have also seen the destruction of Russia's once powerful middle and upper classes, the annihilation of the opposition, the liquidation of tire Kulaks and the collectivization of agriculture and the emergence of a tight, all-powerful and trolling “monolithic” party apparatus.

Convict Three For Hijacking Whiskey Federal Court Jury Convicts Three Men INDIANAPOLIS W — T h r e e Shelbyville men were convicted by a Federal Court jury Friday night on charges in connection with the hijacking of a $50,000 cargo of whiskey from an interstate shipment. A pre-sentence investigation was ordered by Judge Cale J. Holder before he imposes a penalty on Richard J. Wilcox, 31, and Wilbur E. Higgins, 35. The jury deliberated about three hours. Its verdict could mean 10-year prison terms and fines up to'ss,ooo for each of the three men. The liquor was stolen from a Hall Freight Lines truck at Indianapolis last April. A grand jury indicted the three men on charges they possessed 56 cases of the 635 cases missing from a trailer. The government based its case jon the testimony of Edgar Greer, "operator of a parking lot, who said the defendants sold him a quantity of the stolen liquor. U. S. attorneys described alibis of the defendants as "fantasy.” Elba L. Branigin, Jr., attorney for the defendants, said in his final argument that Greer lied to the jurors in an effort to keep from being involved in the case. Acreage Agreements Remain In Effect Acreage reserve agreements under the 1957 program remain in full force and effect through December 31, this year, farmers were reminded today by Burl Johnson, chairman of the Adams county agricultural stabilization and conservation committee. Chairman Johnson explained that he was concerned that some farmers who already have been paid for land placed in the 1957' acreage reserve might feel that ►they have fully complied with the program. The provisions of acreage reserve agreements remain in effect althrough the payment may be made before the end of the year. Under the acreage reserve, the land specifically designated by the farmer for the program may not be croped and livestock may not b e permitted to .graze on it. The exception to this is thi land may be planted this year to a crop that will be harvested in 1958 or later. However, stakes should not be removed. .
