NEW YORK, Nov. 11—It pleases Burl Ives now to recall how he came out of the Midwest and became one of the
N. Y. Roofraff. “So you were really bro other day.
“Good and broke. Living on the roof of International
House, in a sleeping bag, and the whole bunch knowing I
was there somewhere and trying to find me,” he said. Mr. Ives, America’s gittar-play-ing minstrel, who now weighs 260 pounds, had met me in the Dorset bar, bringing ‘along his beautiful Great Dane dog, weight 202 pounds.

So now the dog just stood gos higher than the table — and i looked on rather sarcastically at E me. z “I used to bus dishes up at Inter national House for meals until they caught me,” he said. He tugged at his new- chin whiskers which he insists his wife Helen likes. -

“I USED TO SING Gregorian chants. I used to be one of what they call the angels at the St. Mary The Virgin Church choir. I got three bucks a week, and I don’t mind telling you I was glad to get it.” All this struck me as remarkable, because a summer ago the B.

For long centuries, the world’s population remained fairly constant. Periodic plagues, famines and a high rate of infant mortality wiped out any gains made by the birth of lots of children. But with the coming of science to control plagues and infant mortality, and the coming of transportation to supply famine victims, there was no such equalizing force. And, even now, much of the

Go-Getter Humphrey Avoids Top Hats
By NEA Service MINNEAPOLIS, Nov, 11—When Hubert Horatio Humphrey Jr. won election to the U. 8S. Senate, a friend in Northfield, Minn., sent him a silk top hat with the message: “If you never let it get too small for your head we will hear from you often.” The Humphrey rejoinder: “If it, but I'll never wear this.” That's characteristic of the glib, loud, boundlessly energetic, gregarious

Senator-elect Hubert H. Humphrey is disproving the adage that Minneapolis mayors never get anywhere in politics.
He has a consuming political ambition. One observer in Minneapolis was comforted by the strong Truman showing in the election, inasmuch as it “probably will keep Humphrey from running for President in 1952.” Humphrey was accepted by conservatives and Republicans in Minneapolis, despite his warm regard for F.D.R. and enthusiastic indorsement of Henry A. Wallace in 1944, because they believed him a good administrator to clean up city government and vice. He since has broken with
