Margaret C. Smith, Plaintiff,

Margaret C. Smith, Plaintiff,
VS..
Olinus p. Smith, Defendant.
IN THE CIRCUIT COURT FOR
MONTGOMERY COUNTY
No. 1876 Equity.
The object of this suit is to
obtain a divorce q vtnculo matTi-
mOnii from the defendant Olinus
P. Smith and for alimony and

resident of Montgomery County,
State of Maryland, and has re-
sided therein continuously for
more than one ~ year preced-
ing the filing of this suit; that
there were two (2) children born
as a result of said marriage, both
of whom are now of full legal
age; that the conduct of the plain
tiff toward her husband, the said
Olinus p. Smith, was always kind,
affectionate and above reproach
and that the said defendant has
without any just cause or reason,
abandoned and deserted her and
has declared his intention to live
with her no longer, and that such
abandonment and desertion has
continued uninterruptedly for at
least three (3) years before the
filing of this suit and is deliberate
and final and the separation of the
parties is beyond any reasonable
expectation of reconciliation; that
the defendant is nonresident of
the State of Maryland and is a
resident of the District of Column
bia and his post office address is
the Harrington Hotel, 11th and E

pearance to said suit and for gen
eral relief.

unfortunate. Instead Of united
front against the Nazis in Yugo-
slavia, there is an apparently divided
one-a condition impairing the ef-
fectiveness of guerrilla operations
and feeding the suspicion, justified
or not, that outside political influ-
ences are working at cross purposes
among the United Nations. Thus
the Partisan elements under Tito
are said to have Moscow's support
in a kind Of contest with Mix
hailovitch, who in turn has the i'm
piled support of London and Wash
ington through recognition of the
Yugoslav government-in7eX
The significance of the Tito-Mik-
hailovitch rivalry, of course, can be
exaggerated, but it has a disturbing
effect nonetheless and will continue
to confuse the public until it is
cleared up through some such COM
position of differences as that now
in effect among the French outside
France. In many ways, the dispute
resembles the one that existed for
a long time between Generals De-
Gaulle and Giraud, and if that could
be reasonably we'll settled, this one
can be, too. AS for the broader i'm
plications, if there are any, they very
probably will be aired at the forth

No Immediate Relief
From the Ottawa lie Droit.

From the Ottawa lie Droit
Here in Canada a section of public
opinion wants the abandonment of war
controls Immediately upon the sigma
ture OF peace. Not week passes with
out an echo of that desire Whether we
like or detest these controls, there is one
fact which nobody can deny, and that
Is that the transfer of war to a peace
economy cannot be instantaneous. For
four years the Canadian authorities
have pushed the RECOMMENDATION of Can
ada to an unheard-of point. The re-
turn to just liberty will be accom-
pilshed gradually. Those who have es-
tabllshed the war controls will not lack
for reasons or pretexts to slacken their
grip on the country gradually. Herbert
Morrison. home secretary in Great Brit
ain, is of the opinion that that will be
the course which should be followed
there. Speaking the other day at Dun
dee, ne declared that rationing and
other economic war controls should be
maintained in Britain after the signing
OF the peace "as long as abnormal
conditions persist"

Sales Tax Coins

Rising sentiment in Congress for
enactment of a Federal retail sales
tax, to be applied in conjunction
with stiff income tax, calls for OBJ
jective consideration of the results
that may be expected from legisla-
ton of this sort.
To a considerable extent, the oppo-
sition to the sales tax is political in
character Adoption of such levy,
without exemptions, would mean
that everybody who spends money
would pay direct tax to the Federal
Government, and that is prospect
which is not attractive to most poll
ticians, who prefer to soak the
rich" Nevertheless, under certain
conditions, there are valid objections
to sales tax.
If the tax is levied on necessities
as we'll as semiluxuries and luxuries,
the burden falls iSproportionately
on the man with a small income.
This objection can be met, however,
by linking a sales tax to a severe
and graduated income tax. In a
period of depression, according to
the opposition view, a sales tax
would act as a deterrent to buying,
and would therefore contribute to
further business stagnation. There
probably is merit in this contention.
Under the conditions prevailing to-
day, however, many of the arguments
that could be raised against a sales
tax during the past decade become
arguments in its favor. Wartime tax
legislation has two main purposes.
The first, of course, is to raise maxi
mum of revenue. The second is to
discourage inflatpnary buying of
scarce commodities by draining off
excess purchasing power and by i'm
posing what amounts to penalty on
this type of buying. Both of these
are desirable and necessary objectives
if the Government is to get the
revenue that it needs and if any
real restraint is to be laid on the $40
600, 100000 Of excess purchasing
power which is threatening to break
through the none too secure barriers
that have been erected against in
f1ation. To greater extent than
any other known form of taxation,
the sales tax would achieve these
objectives. But the tax program
proposed by the Treasury, if any
thing, would have the opposite effect
SO far as those in the low income
brackets are concerned.
1t is along these lines that this
years fight for a Federal sales tax
will be Waged. And with men of the
caliber of Chairman George of the
Senate Finance Committee and
Representative Robertson of the
Ways and Means Committee already
indicating their preference for a
sales tax, really serious effort in
that direction is to be anticipated.

would be exercised to finance only
those undertakings that promise to
be largely self-liquidating, as an
enormous amount Of postwar recon-
struction will be. Management Of
the organization would be vested in
the hands of board on which each
of the participating United Nations
would be represented by one director,
and the voting power of the member
countries would be in proportion to
the shares they held in the bank. In
all probability, on the basis of its
resources, the United States would
make the biggest contribution to the
n-billion-d dollar capitalization fund
and would therefore have the largest
voice in the agency's operations.
We must expect that when this
proposal becomes more than the out
line of an idea, when it is made de-
tailed and specific, inspection by ex-
perts may disclose many important
flaws in it, not the least of which
may prove to be that an International
RFC cannot work nearly so smoothly
as has the RFC in this country. Yet,
since some such financing body will
be necessary in the postwar years
and since it apparently does not con-
template competing with private
capital or encouraging pipe-dream
projects, the Treasury's plan merits
the fullest consideration. 1t is at
least another thoughtful effort to
prepare for the coming peace, and
if it is found practicable, it may go
far in helping to bind up the wounds
of the world.

Sound in Principle

Although still in the field of tech
nlcal discussion, more or less as the
outline of an idea, the Treasury De-
partment's proposal for the estab-
lishment of United Nations bank
for reconstruction and DEVELOPMENT
seems sound in principle, particu-
larly because it is modelled along
the lines of the Reconstruction FL
nance Corporation, which has been
operating successfully in this coun-
try ever since it's creation by the
Hoover administration.
AS explained by DR.. Harry D.
White, director of the Treasurys
monetary division, the proposal
would have the member countries
make proportionate initial contri-
buttons to capitalize the bank at
ten billion dollars. Then, with this
capital, the bank would encourage
private agencies to provide long
term loans "for the sound develop
ment of the productive resources of
member countries" To this end
in much the same way as the RFC
does in the United States, it would
guarantee the loans or participate
in them, and it would follow a fixed
policy of not competing with non
governmental banking groups, since
it would lend out of it's own resources
only to qualified borrowers unable to
obtain funds from private quarters
at reasonable interest rates.
The banks decisions, according to
the Treasury's outline of the pro-
posal, would be based exclusively on
such economic considerations as the
soundness of the investment project
and the prospect of repayment. This
suggests that no loans would be
made for grandiose building pro-
grams Of a sterile or nonproductive
character and that special care

the fuel situation need effect our gup-
pies. They are pretty hardy and can
stand IS degrees, or can they?
Sincerely yours, M. g."
We believe that many folks would do
themselves a good turn by taking up
guppies, as our correspondent suggests.
Especially fishermen.
Folks who enjoy fishing mostly get the
idea that fish has no particular interest
in itself, as living thing
1t is as our correspondent says, Just
a thing to be caught.
Guppies will show any one, we be-
lieve, that fishes are worth while in their
own right, utterly aside from their ability
to provide sport.
The guppy is the English sparrow Of
the fish world
1t is quite as common, and almost as
tough. 1t darts hither and yon, ever
on the search for something to eat
The males are perfect gamins They
like the ladies' and don t care who knows
it. Chasing after the lady guppies is
their big job in life, and they spend
most Of their time at it.
X
A water temperature of 65 degrees Is
just about as low as a guppy tank can
go, with any real safety
Most experts tell us that 6S degrees is
much better.
We have known of guppy tanks which
went as low as so degrees, or even a bit
lower
1t all depends upon the health of the
fishes.
When a guppy is fit, it can stand a
much lower temperature than those in
poor health.
Perhaps it is best to be sure the water
tempera .ure never goes below SO degrees,
10 degrees is better
This can be secured by burning a small
lamp bulb at one end of the aquarium
And by wrapping the tank up at night
That is when the danger comes
Gupples are best kept in a tank fitted
with tight lid Of glass, over which an
old sweater or blanket can be thrown at
night.
This is one of the strangest things, in
the eyes of persons who have had
aquarium experience only with the gold
fish. Very few persons ever put a lid
over goldfish. But it is common prac-
tice with the tropical fishes They are
more jumpy, and are best confined so
that they cannot lose their lives on the
floor.
Those who are unfamiliar with cover
ing the aquarium think it will keep the
air out Air is not that easily kept out.
Any one who has ever tried to create
vacuum knows that No glass cover
Will fit so tightly that it will or can
keep air out.
One good thing about guppies is that
they need so little food.
Ten cents worth of food will last them

How is that for rationing?
