Anyway, the local survey corroborates the findings of the New York pogonology. Fortythree men out of 50 substantiates pretty well the Allied Associates, Inc. release. ® » IT WOULD be a wonderful gesture on thepart of women everywhere if they conceded that shaving is more troublesome, painful, unnecessary than applying a puff of powder and a dab of lipstick. ’ Men would be enternslly grateful, especially during the winter months, if they could put away their razors along with the lawn mewer. There would be a tremendous amount of time, hot water, soap, blades, electricity saved. Hubby could sleep 15 minutes longer in the morning. His face wouldn't be cracked, raw and the color of a steamed tomato, Frigid blasts, such as we have endured this winter, would be much easier to take. Come spring, the entire community would have a gala beardfest and wool-shearing party, . & WHAT A thrill it would be for mothers and children to have fathers afd uncles emerge, bright and shiny, as if from cocoons. Everyone could ‘get acquainted all over again, from scratch,. 80 to speak, and joyous cries would ring throughout the land. Newscaster and telecaster Gilbert Forbes of WFBM gave me pérmission to add foliage to his countenance. Mr. Forbes is one of those men who must shave daily—twice if he's appearing on TV.

Shy at Arms

Prefer to Wait For West to" Grow Stronger |

West Germany has plenty to, give in industrial ‘production for! Atlantic Pact defense, but the West Germans are still reluctant]

to rearm despite Gen. Dwight D.| Eisenhower's recent visit, U. S.|

MONDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 1951

diplomats were told today. U. 8. High Commissioner .John J. McCloy was understood to have made a lengthy report on Ger-

U. 8. officials in western Europe. The officials met here today to foundation under Gen. Eisenhower’s Atlantic Army. Mr. McCloy’s report was said to have included these points: ONE: West German factories and mines can make an important contribution to Western Defense, producing not armaments but such items.as bal bearings, machine tools and textiles. The country’s output is running at the 12.5 mililon ton yearly level. TWO: Gen. Eisenhower's visit last month and his wish to “let bygones be bygones" was warmly received. But it has not changed West Germany's reluctance to rearm at this time—not until it is given greater “equality” and not until Western Europe is stronger. THREE: The “Schuman Plan” for pooling Westérn Europe's heavy industry is opposed strongly by the Ruhr coal and steel magnates. . ; FOUR: The new Soviet-inspired campaign by East German Premier Otto Grotewohl for the unification of Germany has a basic appeal for West Germans. If the Russians offer further concessions it may embarrass Chancellor Konrad Adenauer’s government.

Denmark

DENMARK has ordered 15 East German trawlers to leave two Danish ports because they were suspected of participating in guided-missile tests in the Baltic,

|it was reported today.

The trawlers were asked to leave when police noted they ‘were not properly equipped for fishing. The crews also appeared strange for fishing ships, these reports said. The crews were reported to include former parachutists, Ger-

man navy men and coast artillerymen.

Sheepherder Finally Yields To Progress

South California Too Populated; He's Moving North Sheepherder Bob Boyd threw in the towel today and admitted progress was running him and his 650 sheep out of southern ‘California, after 14 years in that area, * “I just looked the situation over and saw me and the sheep was doomed,” he said pointing to row after row of homes under construction. “So I called up a feller I know in northern California and he said I could have grazing rights on 6000 acres of land, “It oughta be a good number of years before metropolitan Los Angeles spreads to northern California,” said Bob.

cal expediency in catering to voting interests —a rollback which woul maybe make ordinary living less than a rat race. : ; There is a lot of hocus-pocus in economics, but it is largely man made hocus-pocus. and it always seems based more con demand than on supply. Another name is selfishness. We have done nothing actually constructive, so far, in price-and-wage control.

for incompetence. The cost of living jumps, and we rearrange it upwards, increasing wide pay agreements and beckoning the.costs to accompany the new scale. If it is the mark of the Fascist state, or the Communist state, to upgrade costs and prices, then it would be no less the mark of the Fascist state to downgrade them in the interests of the people. If we prepare a parity for the farmers, and set up an arbitrary depletion figure for the oil prospectors, and sell silver at such-and-such, and set taxes at so-and-so, and withhold income, and commit ourselves abroad without the vote of people or act of Congress, then we got a controlled state and we might as well control it in an opposite direction. * @ @ THERE IS no real reason, as we approach full control, why we cannot choose an early postwar price for meat and bread and houses, and
