KEEPING
SCORE
With
Fred Thomas
ROCKET

The American Rocket Society
announced this week that it was
now possible to launch rocket
which would clear the gravity
of the Earth and reach the
Moon.
Acting upon this informa-
ton, we prepared rocket
under the tutelage of our five
months old son and placed in
side 1t a copy of the Columbus
Dispatch, the Cincinnati Times
Star, and the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. AS our son gave direc-
tions, we touched a switch and
-swoosh! - the rocket took off
into the night.
Today we received a reply
from the Moon. On pure white
foolscap, we read the following:
"Esrthman, you have per-
formed a miracle. The rocket ar
rived in good shape and is doing
nicely. Your scientists have out
stripped even those of the Men
of Mars. We salute you.
"Earthman, please explain the
contents of the journals which
you included in your rocket. To
be exact, we should like to have
you reply by the next rocket to
the following questions:
do you enjoy a Democracy
1--WE can't tell from your news
papers)?
There seems to have been a
war. We noticed big flash last
August 7. Was the war between
you and Russia severe one 1--WE
assume from the press that
Russia was the enemy?
Through our spectral-tele-
scope we have observed that
vast areas of Earth seem to be
uninhabited. How is it then
that we read about a Housing
Program?
THE WIND
Our windmeter appears to
be particularly sensitive when
turned in the direction of Lati-
tude 38 degrees, SO minutes
north; and Longitude rs de-
greeS, SO minutes west? Wash
ington, d. c. it is called on youA
map. How do you explain this
tremendous upsurge of wind in
this particular location?
Your newspapers are filled
with merchandise displayed for
sale. 1t strikes us as strange
that the owner of the paper on
another page argues with poten-
tial buyers of this merchandise
that they should pull in their
belts and face the facts of re-
duced income" "
How is it the editor displays
goods for sale and then argues
against more money for custom
erS of those goods? Perhaps
your logic is different from ours.
STRIKERS
1--WE read where strikers are
operating against the public
good by withholding their serv-
ices from their employers.
1--WE also read where employ
ers have been withholding their
merchandise from the public be-
cause of some taX-evasion
cSheme. Why is it wrong for
worker to withhold his mer-
chandise Qabor) from the mar
ket and right for an employer to
withhold his goods? Please ex-
plain. This question truly wor-
rieS the Moon-Glow PhiloSophic-
al Society.
"We read where persons OF
black skin are denied certain
privileges in the southern part
OF the United States. In the
event we decide to visit you, via
rocket ship, what would be our
reception? Our skins are green. "
Thus the first rocket message
from the Moon read. Late to-
night we shall dispatch our an
Swer into the skies 1t will be a
recording of our baby son max
ing goo-goo sounds in his bath.

Rep, Hoffman of Michigan
says he has no worries about
the high cost of living; il
something costs more, he just
doesn't buy it. Not everyone
can exist on hot air, however.
In place of national health
insurance, the medical cartel
is proposing voluntary health
plans in the 48 states. Instead
of doing nothing nationally,
they want to do nothing in
48 different ways.

Too Many Cattle?
Let's Eat 'Em!
Saws AAA Leader

FLAGSTAFF, Aug. ia proposal
to rid Arizona ranges of excess cat
tie by feeding them to civilians
after needs of the armed forces are
met was carried to Washington by
o. M. Lassen, state chairman of the
Agricultural Adjustment Admins
tration
Lassen said he would advise Clin-
ton P. Anderson, Secretary of Agri-
culture, that something should be
done to permit cattle to go to mar
ket."
There should be an outlet for
these cattle while purchasing power
is high" Lassen said. 'After needs
of the armed forces are met, slaugh-
ter should be allowed to distribute
these excess cattle to civilians as
meat"
Lassen said the states cattle pop
ulation of 100000 is too high. Rela-
lively few of them are being fed for
market, he asserted. Slaughtering
them in the state would help solve
transportation difficulties, the Off
cial said.
