“In a jail,” the hefty turnkey rumbled. “All the men wished the sheriff and the rest of us a Merry
Christmas when they filed out of the dining room.” ‘One prisoner, charged with receiving stolen goods and now awaiting jury trial, praised the food but he said it was hard to swallow at first. He spent all night thinking of his wife and small daughter, : He said he had been planning for another fine
Christmas. Last year the biggest kick he got was
watching his little girl opening her ‘presents. “I thought a lot about that. Also about Christmas dinner at ®ither my mother’s place or my wife's mother’s,” he said. Two cards came to him at the jail. His eyes lit up when he told of the scribbling on one. He wasn't

‘periencing his first confinement. He fs charged
with contempt of court which culminated from domestic troubles. He thought the longest Christmas Eve of his life was spent last Saturday. His battle was to try and get things off his mind. He admitted that was hard to do, Time seemed to stand still and thoughts of his young son and. daughter were always abundant. i. “I didn’t sleep any,” he said. “I thought morning would never come. But, morning didn’t stop me from just kicking things aroud in my mind.” + The clergyman who told the inmates Why people the world over Celebrate Christmas impressed the prisoner a great deal. He liked the preacher about as well as he did the piano player.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28-If you want to learn how to take an 80 per cent pay cut and enjoy it, your man i8 John E. O'Gara, vice-president-on-leave of R. H. Macy and Co., New York department store. Mr, O'Gara has been a deputy assistant secretary of state for two months mow, and the old drive that kept Macy's going through many a profitable year is beginning to percolate through his strata of the staid and unMacy-like State Department. “He is unique in that he is the only high departmental official who might be described accurately as a “big business” man. Although his job is on the economic side of foreign policy, Mr. O’Gara’s initial impact has been particularly felt in the field of public relations—a field wherein many observers think the department, has fallen ‘behind the times.
Selling Point MR. O'GARA thinks the government ought to take more vigorous steps to “sell” the American people on its foreign policy—just like Macy's, or any other big business’ outfit, goes all out to
convince the public that its merchandise is the best.
“It should be the biggest public relations job In the world,” Mr. O'Gara said in an interview. Mr. O'Gara thinks the business world might contribute reinforcements. But this idea presents problems. The “brains” of the national advertising and public relations industry—the type of men O'Gara is thinking about—get terrific salaries Just for having ideas on how to sell soap, pins and needles and two-weeks-at-the-seashore. Some
of them get more than the President of the United/
States. Of course, Uncle Sam can’t pay that kind of
_ salary. But, according to O'Gara, ’Uncle Sam

4rd spas FDR Loads In Poll OF Editors On
BELGRADE, Yugoslavia, Dec. 28—Santa Truman has given Dictator Tito just the Christmas (and New Year's) present he wanted—, even though scrooge Tito snubs father Noel. At a press conference the President said the United * States will oppose Soviet aggression against Yugoslavia. For Tito's bustling bureaucrats, the President's statement indeed is a needle of hope. Many of them wishfully believe the U. 8. A. will come cloppy-clopping to the aid of distressed maiden Yugoslavia (waving the A-bomb) should G.I.-Van parachute in for conquest. Naturally Mr. Truman never even implied atomizing the Soviet hordes to bail out the government of this police state. But when you are isolated in Titoland (since the bust-up with Stalin) a smile is practically a promise of muscular suprt. Certainly presidential chatter is as firm as Tito’s control of this caged country, Somewhat confused are Americans here who fear that our moral slip is showing when we give a great big hand to Tito's communism—a carbon copy of Stalin’s communism. *
