Every Decatur resident can do his or her part of the great job of promoting Democracy and capitalism. For Democracy to compete, we must each do our part. We must keep well - informed. Education does not stop with high school or college graduation.- Every public question must be thoroughly understood by every citizen. Then Democracy is a reality. Capitalism will continue to grow and expand when all of us understand the background and conditions necessary for continued prosperity. —-o—o The Automotive News, edited by Pete Wemhoff, former Decatur man, tells us that new car dealers have averaged a loss of 0.8% on each new car sold this year, as compared with’a beforetax profit of 1.4% (or S6B) in the same period last year. Chevrolet replaces Ford as the top seller this year, Plymouth remains in third, and the Oldsmobile replaces the Buick for fourth and Although dealers are scrambling for imported - car — figures show that the spectacular growth of imported car sales does not begin to compensate for the lost sales of domestic products. ——lo o Has your child ever been bitten by an unknown dog? Have you ever lived through the agonizing days that-followed, wondering if the dog was rabid? These questions were presented to us recently by a Decatur lady. She does not hate pets in any way, and her family owns one. But she sincerely believes that all pets should be kept at home, or on a leash to prevent such incidents. There is no cure for rabies, and there is certainly no cure for the worry which would haunt parents whose children were bitten. The lady suggests an ordinance, which does not now exist, which would Require all dogs to be confined or on a leash. This would permit the collection of all stray dogs, and would end forever the of rabies. We only regret that this newspaper's longstanding policy of not printing letters without the signature of the author prohibits the printing of the entire letter.

Don't forget,to help yourself and Decatur bylßuying your circus tickets freni your Decatur merchant now for the big event June 7. o o At least 39 Decatur high school students are doing their part to fight Communism by keeping America educated. arg the ones who have made the honor roll every six weeks this year, and received a scholastic letter. o o—— Alaska has been an organized territory since 1912, longer than any other territory in the history of our country. For 40 years Congress has considered and put off statehood. The population of the territory is now 212,000, more than Nevada’s, and in the same general range with a half-dozen other states. Every state has grown tremendouslj*when admitted to the Union. Araska is noncontiguous to the United States, but so were. California and Oregon when they were admitted. If we still believe that our founding fathers were justified in crying "taxation without representation is tyranny” then we can hardly justify keeping Alaska as a territory. As mining, timber, and fishing industries grow there, trade and commerce will increase in all parts of the United Sjtates adding value to the entire country. If we re-read the reasons used by those who opposed the admission of such states as Minnesota, saying that the admission would only permit a few timber barons to strip the state of its timber and leave it to the Indians and beavers, we get some idea of how arguments against Alaska will look in the future. Although simple justice demands that we respond to Alaska's petitions and admit her as a state, our own elected representative has not only voted against consideration of the measure, he has even been absent during part of the debate, allowing the opponents to constantly interrupt the consideration of the bill with roll calls and other delaying and time-consuming motions. To return sanity to government, vote for W. Robert Fleming for U.S. representative in the November election.

Unknown Soldiers On Last Long Ride Final Ceremonials On Memorial Day WASHINGTON (UPD—The destroyer Blandy nosed up the Potomac River today with the flagdraped caskqts of two unknown soldiers on their last long ride to hallowed burial in Arlington National Cemetery. The soldiers — an Unidentified World War II veteran and one from the Korean War—-await ceremonial interment on Friday, Memorial Day, beside the ‘‘Unknown Soldier” of World War I with President Eisenhower leading the nation in tribute. Behind them—33 miles at sea off the Virginia capes—the slate green waves wash restlessly over the ocean grave of an equally honored comrade, also “known but to God.” He was the “unchosen unknown of World War II whose number didn’t come up when Navy Hospital Corpsman 1c William R Charette, a Korean war hero, made the final choice between the caskets of a, World War II veteran from the European thater and one from the Pacific. The 26-year-old Charette didn’t know which was which. And neither did anyone else after the military’s complicated mixing manuvers to make identification ’ impossible. So it was two for the land and one for the sea. The Navy buried the “unchosen” with all the honors it could muster in solemn burial rites from the guided missile cruiser Canberra. The sleek grey ,Blandy, with the trim white Coast Guard cutter Ingham as escort, was due at the naval gun factory here this afternoon. The honored bodies will remain aboard until Wednesday morning when a delegation of government officials headed by Defense Secretary Neil H. McElroy and Treasury Secretary Robert B. Anderson will formally meet the Blandy. Then the bodies will be taken in identical hearses with honor guard es'corts to the rotunda of the U.S. Capitol building where they will lie in state ori,_ blackdr aped Catafalques until "Friday; On Friday afternoon the. cas-. kets will be placed on horse-; drawn , artillery caissons. These' will proceed at funeral pace, past: the city's great monuments, to ■ Arlington Cemetery across the i Potomac for the solemn last cere-! mony. There the President will make an address and place congressional medals of honor on both caskets.

O 111 — —7 o Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE I o— *—•—> o Q. If a great many wedding gifts have been received,’ wouldn’t it be allright for the bride to mail out engraved cards of thanks? !A. Never! If a bride does not coconsider the gifts worth her time and effort to write personal notes of thanks, then it seems a shame that the donors devoted, any time and money to her. Q. We have just moved into a new community. Would it be all right if we were to give a buffet dinner for our new neighbors? A. This might be all right in a very informal community. Usually, however, it is more advisable to wait until your neighbors make such overtures of friendship. Q. Is it all right for a young man to accept a cigarette offered to him by a girl? -y . A. This is quite all right. Trade in a good town — Decatur enamel in bold bright j/ u| colors! lustaquik For woodwork, accessories, outdoor furniture, kitchen and bathroom walls. Self smoothing.
