CUSTOMER GIVES HIM BAD TIME

Dear Amy: I run a drug store that has a small luncheonette in it. I think I’m rather easy to get along with, but theye is one customer who is taxing my patience no end. There is this one woman with two children who comes in every day, rain or shine, for lunch. What these two children do to my place is a crime and a shame. Menus are either spattered with food or torn. The mirrors behind the booths are smeared from their sticky hands. 1 They don’t stop banging the door, and let’s not mention the floor. Amy, how can I handle her without offending her? She still’ is a customer. Incidentally, her husband is a physician and a very nice guy. Should I tell him? Mort ; Dear Mort: I wouldn’t suggest you tell her husband. He probably can't stand it from them either. The only prescription for your dilemma is to tell HER in the nicest way you know how . , . but tell her. If she is offended (and she shouldn’t be), so you lose her. You Jiave everything to gain and little to lose. There are worse pills to swallow. She and her children need a doctor, but not the one they have. • . • ♦ Dear Amy: A long time ago you printed • a letter fpom a man named “Al” who owned a neighborhood grocery store. I wanted to cut it out with your reply in rhyme to hang in my store for everyone to see. but the paper was thrown out before I got to it. Now things are so bad With my business, I want that letter very much. Would you please print it again for me? ' . I Thank you kindly, Joe G. Dear Joe: It took quite a bit of looking but here it is: “I own a small grocery in a new neighborhood. I try to carry a full line of meats, fish and 1 poultry to accommodate my customers but I have a gripe. These people who shop in the big supermarkets pay cash but they come in my store and expect me to give them credit. They know they can’t get away with it in the big markets but they try to pull it on the little grocer who is struggling to make a living. I need 1

THE HOOSIER DAY By FRANK A. WHITI - NOW THAT THE legislature is in its final week, due to adjourn Monday. March 8,. it is possible to say a few good tilings about the session. Bar some iwweseeh entanglement iiaha legislature will adjourn on time It will not be neces-..-eful subterfuge of turning, back the clock. aid naming overtime. Few would have forecast that this piixiominate-ly one-sided . assembly would py-. :t< major work done on time. At least 70 per cent of members were freshmen- or neophytes. The tact the legislature is up on its program at .this writing is due to leadership ol older heads largely. For the rfiost part each issue was tackled with vigor and a decision reached, right or wrong. . As tin* assembly went into its last week, the knottaru problem of a $1.7 billion dollar state budget for the biennium beginning next July 1, was all wrapped up. However, there was a last minute rebellion w here those who failed to repeal the sales tax and tho>e wanting tax relief got' together. . A proposal was being debated as this was written seeking to save taxpayers about .$55 million dollars over j two years by a graduation of gross tax. ' Big families would be favored in this proposal. Democrats- also were trying to find some way to relieve the excessive property taxes, as were all members. A windfall came when state governmental tax income estimates were revised upwards. .An additional $3? 4 million was estimated This was immediately allocated to $6 million increase for the four state universities; $27 million in a packet deal for local school support; $600,000 aid to dependent children; $1 million to the State Board of Health: $3 million to teacher, and public employe pension funds. Earmarked for property tax relief on a school population basis was $9 million. The waning days of a legislature

And suggest the following slogan, prominently displayed: “If you like to find this store Stocked with your favorite fish and fowl Don’t sav vouTl pav me later 1 need the CASH right now!” • • • Dear Amy: i I have, a problem and I hope you can help me out. My mother i opens and reads every letter I I receive. I am 15 and I write to a soldier, but his letters are not that personal that she can’t read them . . . after I have. But by the time I get home from school, she has them already opened. I love my mother dearly and I wouldn’t hurt her for all the money in the world. I have asked her many times please not to read my mail, but it does no good. How can I discourage her from reading my mail? Irish Dear Irish: It is wrong and inconsiderate for a parent to open or read a son's or daughter's mail without permission. To be curious is a poor excuse. And not to trust indicates to me that there is something wrong in their relationship. If you have done nothing wrong for mother to question her trust in you, show her this reply and hope for the best. • • * Dear Amy: j Some time. ago you wrote an ’ article about a. woman writing an anonymous letter to her neighbor telling her of Ker husI band's affair with another worni an on their street. Doesn’t the I writer realize that someone else can be blamed for writing such a letter. Some innocent person can have her name turned, into mud. You must feel sorry for pcoi pie like that because they know not what they are doing. “MUD” Address all letters to: AMY ADAMS c/o THIS NEWSPAPER For a personal reply enclose stamped, self addressed envelope.

I are always most dangemis. The/ie were several bad bills still alive. The pattern of future Indiana legislatures was foreseen in,the team work of thickly.populated areas such as Lake and Marion county. Lake was teaming with Marion to j help the latter vnai-t what has been | termed "power grab bills”. In turn i a bad bill that would hamstring ; hands of t S Board of counts iji reporting to grand juries and prosecutors’ misconduct in hand-' ling public monies was being pd- , \anced. J It is a biß authored by Rep. Nickolas V. Angel D-Mimster.)’and sup-, ported among others bX John Krupa, Lake county Democratic chairman. I Several Kike county oii.cials have , been in toils of the law and targets of the State Accounts Board. Sup- 1 porting this- bad piece of legislation also was Rep. Edwin A. Applegate : D-Bloomington who carries the J torch for schoolmen who are disgruntled at the State Board of Accounts. SEVERAL OTHER bills advancing would put an Iron Curtain around de- i liberations of several local agencies sitting m. A vicious fight exists in these bills against freedom of inf or-1 mation.-the right of the public to know, as carried on by the press and decent citizens. One.foet s wdl e<tablished and that, is, the 94th legislature was 1 Ik-mocrat controlled, lock stock and barrel. The over-powering party membership in both House and Sen- • rtabied the assembly to enact ’ any bill it desired. .And with this ’ strength goes responsibility for the legislation enacted whether it be [ good or bad. ■ At this writing the ■ assemblymen ’ were wrestling with the portentious problem of reallocating seats in fu- : ture legislatures and the realigning <4>f congressional districts. The Democ crat package in these regards was all done up ready for passage when the federal court stepped in with its three judge panel. It left no doubt ’ that the district alignments would ? have to be redone to make them 1 more population equal. It is being ■jdoae by re-writing. J \s package stands and will be * enacted. Democrats will have an ‘ edge Tn six Indiana congressional a districts and Republicans in five. I-1 e Read the CLASSIFIEDS
