This Morning's Headlines CHICAGO RACING PUBLISHER SHOT-James E. Ragen', Sr., wealthy 65-year-old racing information tycoon, was shot and wounded last night by four gunmen who blasted at him with shotguns from a camouflaged tructt and escaped after a gun battle with his bodyguards. The gunmen fired at Ragen as he halted his 'automobile for a stoplight at a South Side intersection in Chicago. They fired from a truck camouflaged with fruit crates. A shotgun blast hit him in his right shoulder. Ragen's two bodyguards, who were following hirfi in- another automobile,' exchanged fire with the gunmen in a short chase. Then they returned to take their chief to. Michael Reese hospital. Physicians said Ragen would live but it might be necessary to amputate his arm.

FRONTIERS OF WELFARE

: ; ' We are Concerned, and rightly so,, with public welfare problems at incidence of certain communicable disease, with infantile paralysis as the chief current example, which affects not only the" individuals but relationships between states, constitutes periodic regional and national problems. But these are minor in comparison with the great world-wide challenges which international organizations are undertaking to meet. . . 1 The ultimate goal is nothing less than a healthy world. Epidemics and famine which often go hand-in-hand, no longer are conditions merely to be deplored, no matter how far away they may occur. They are conditions which awaken a sense of responsibility on the' part of the more fortunate naT tions. They set in motion forces which seek to alleviate or remedy those ills. Progress along these lines is evident despite the fact that, there is some grousing among us when we are asked to share our supplies or means and to make minor sacrifices n order that the good work may go on. Sympathy and good"ileighborliness have been constantly widening in scope. Once famine and epidemics were combated largely, on a local and provincial basis. When some of the great plagues of history ; invaded communities of this and other nations, they treated . their own sick, buried their own dead. !' ..2j$r?rith.. a shift in emphasis from treatment to pretention the hof isons of public welfare were broadened. Causes of cholera and typhsu, for example, were traced far beyond national boundaries. Promoters of public welfare pursued germs relentlessly into far distant jands, because of awareness that, since no country lived entirely unto itself, : epidemics of communicable diseases anywhere constituted a v threat to the rest of the world. We have not progressed quite so far in efforts to ban famine and starvation, but our sense of responsibility is : growing in this respect also. We in the Americas are helping to feed more peoples than ever before not merely in war-ravaged countries but in remote overpopulated areas, such as large sections of 'China andilndia. ; . Today two great international organizations are being started to combat disease and famine on a global scale. The tight against hunger and starvation has just been turned over to the international emergency food council, in which 20 or more nations will participate. And steps are being taken to set Up an international health organization with the bread goal of improving the health of every human being by preventing disease. No disagreements are being heard about the broad objectives of these organizations, and little serious differences are expected in the working out of operating details. We find we can ' co-operate whole-heartedly in pushing back r 'the frontiers of welfare to the point where no area ultimately! will be excluded from opportunities for. greater health and happiness. And this progress gives hope for greater co- : operation also in fields where nations have disagreed violently, and where disagreements have led to catastrophic wars. For the battle against disease and famine cannot be ' accounted as fully won until war itself is banished.

Pete said to Daisy, "I'd like to tell you now." PETE ordered two bottles of wine and they had a party. It was all very gay. Daisy noticed, though, that his face was still closed, as it had been ever since the call from Dan. But at last it was over. The others left and Pete stood Up and looked down at Daisy. "Go now?" he asked. His face opened and he'smiled at her slowly. Her heart beat up in her throat and she got up at once. She wondered if now he was going to tell her what it was that troubled him so deeply. He had been close to it several times before but could not seem to go on. When they were back at Daisy's place she sat in the big chair and he was at her feet. He said, "I'd like to tell you now." Daisy said. "Go ahead." He sat. composing something In his mind for a minute. Tfcn he said, "I killed my wife." He stopped and stared.

He told how his wife hod been killed ... "Did you?" she said. "How?" He blinked. "Well well, this is the way it was. .We were driving down from Connecticut two years ago. It was raining and I had a hangover. So I let Susy drive. I shouldn't have. And I went to sleep.. We skidded and hit a tree. The steering post jammed back and she died right there. It was my fault." "No. It was an acident." He shook his head and she went on angrily, "Who do you think you are? God? You don't have to be responsible for everything,". , ' .

he comes back, I'll tell him that it's over, of course. I can't

write him. That's not fair. ..."

"You'll do that even though you still love him?" "I won't deny that. But we both know just how big that' love is. I've told him for a long time it isn't enough." Pete said, "Will you marry me?" She said angrily, "You don't have to ask me that. Just because I said I'd tell Dan. ..." , "Please marry me. I want you more than -anything in the world." Daisy looked at him. She asked, "How about Susy?" "Susy's dead." She said, "Yes." Immediately, she found herself think- ' ing, "I must be crazy." But it felt fine. ...
