IT that when the owner of a great newt

weekly magazine decided to go all out for General Eisenhower in the 1952 Presidential campaign, a preponder-

ant number of his senior editors, passionately demoted to the cause of Adlai Stevenson, protested so vigorously that the owner called a full editorial meeting. It was his first appearance in the home office in some time, and he obviously was in no mood for shilly-shally-ing as he mounted the rostrum. “Gentlemen," he began without ceremony, "in ease some of you don't know me, let me introduce myself. I am your boss. I can hire and I can fire.

ANY QUESTIONS?"

Cause of their mystification: the boy couldn't spell, his penmanship was atrocious, and he couldn’t write one entirely correct six-word sentence. So mama and papa hied themselves to school to confront the boy’s teacher. “Them A’s was deserved,” the teacher assured them. “The little faults you mention don’t matter none."

$1 or $2, depending on a decision by the state Department of Taxes. They will be marketed in hotels and motels, banks and Western Union offices across the state. After 15 hours of debate, the Senate okayed the lottery by a 52-4 vote, while assembly approval was 120-25. The actual lottery, to be held each month beginning in July, will be determined by a horse race picked at random one week after it is run, to prevent tampering with the results. The winners will be picked from a fishbowl, with the tickets drawn matched to respective horses in the race. Top prize is $100,000. Second place will be worth $75,000, third place $50,000, fourth $25,000, and fifth through 15th $5,000.

Senator Assails Wire Tapping INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Sen. Edward Long, D-Mo., told a meeting of the Indiana Civil Liberties Union that wire tapping and electronic "hugging” threaten the nation’s liberties. He said these methods were used by secret police in Nazi Germany and are used now in Soviet Russia to maintain dictatorships. Long observed that Congress never has outlawed electronie “bugging,” and charged that federal agents often have violated a 1984 law designed to stop wire tapping. “But ’hugging’ a bedroom or office is just as much a violation of our constitutional rights as wire tapping a telephone,” Long said. “An expert can devise a ’bug’ to fit into almost any piece of furniture in your room. A United States senator was ‘bugged’ by a transmitter secretly placed into a lamp which his wife was having repaired at a shop. When experts searched for the transmitter, it was gone.” Long said a bill he introduced Feb. 8 would outlaw aU wire tapping and eavesdropping except in cases involving national security. Also under the bill, a citizen could request police surveillance on his phone when kidnaping, bribery, extortion and threats of death are involved. “Apathy is a tremendous danger,” Long said. ‘We are not secure in our rights and our privacy today. Let no one think we are. Tomorrow they may be gone, unless we work on the local, state and federal level to protect them.”
