there was no question about the
cause OF death. Ike's skull had been
Dashed in and there were teeth
marks on his neck.
The O.C.A. observed that after
likes death there was an expression
of even more smugness than usual
on the ugly phiz of Tony, nicknamed
The Terrible, the proclaimed
leader Of the pack.
The following afternoon Monty
took a stroll and Tony, after peerinC
around carefully to see whether any
one was looking, took off in the
same direction. The OCA. followed.
After trailing the pair for about
a mile, he saw Tony poised on the
edge OF cliff with a rock in his
hand almost the size OF a cocoanui.
Monty was not in sight. The OC.A.
coughed loudly and stepped into the
open. Tony dropped the rock and
sCampered away. Walking over 10
the cliff, the officer looked down and
saw Monty playing on a lower ledge.
There could be no doubt as 20 what
had been avcrted.
A court.martial was summoned.
It decided that Tony was merely Oh.
serving the ancient simian custom Of
getting rid Of potential rivals when.
ever and however possible But. al.
though his process of determination
was not NaZi-inspired, he was, neveE-
theless, a quisling. e
Later in the day a squad Of sol.
diers approached Tony. He watched
with interest as the guns were pointed
at him. He had seen guns pointed
before, but nothing had ever harmed
him. There was a concerted roar AMI
Tony toppled.- He was very STR
prised, and very dead, monkey.

FOR a while it looked like a Nazi
p plot. There is superstition that
] when the apes leave the Rock CT
Gibraltar, the British will 60, too. And
when the Gibraltar apes began 10
turn up their toes in alarming num-
bers and for no obvious reason, the
British came to the conclusion that
German spies were putting poison in
the Rocks many hooks and crannies.
But now they have the real an
swer. Gibraltar's simian fatalities
weren't due TO a poison plot at all.
They were due TO a seven-year-old
ape quisling named Tony. The mat
ter has been attended 10 and the
situation now is we'll in hand.
Nobody knows just how the ape
superstition started Certainly the
British didn't start it, because not
much longer than 20 years ago the
military authorities were doing their
dad gumdcst TO rid the Rock of all
its simian inhabitants. Then the no.
ape-no- British tradition began 10
spread all over the empire, and ii
seen became obvious that the depar-
ture of the apes would mean terrific
loss of face TO Jonathan Bull in those
places where face is mighty important.
Since then the apes have had
solicitous care. An OCA. COfficor
in Charge of Apes is always on duty
10 feed them, which he does daily at
the Queens Gate. That's one of the
few openings in the wall of barbed
wire which surrounds the town Of
Gibraltar-not as a protection against
invading troops, but to keep those
thieving apes from climbing over the
ramparts and stealing everything.
Technically, Gibraltar's persnick-
ETY. pets are Barbary macaques or
magots, and they are Europe's only
wild apes. Their real home is in
Morocco, just across the strait, and

Colleagues accuse Schlndler of making a speech every time he opens or closes a window.
 The Surplus Property Board is still waiting for it's new chairman to replace outgoing Senator Guy Gillette. Meanwhile, the Board has worked out several first-rate plans for using Government Surpluses. Cities, towns, and villages which are short on medical facilities will be given whole hospital units including surgical equipment and beds-after the war, at Federal ex- pense. They're going to be distri- buted through the U. S. Public Health Service. Schools will get thousands of surplus Army ra- dios as gift of the Government ,. Right now any school an- xious to teach aviation can get a surplus B-26 bomber for $500 plus transportation. One big sur plus property headache is brass hats fear of junking anything. :. Warehouses full of surpluses pile up storage charges because no one has the nerve to declare it junk.

ON PAYING DEBTS

Debts are easy to pay-if you have the money. the staggering total of S247OO000OO0 approximately Sl 300 per capita This is six times the total of the national debt of 1889. There be no denying the fact that this tremendous obligation will place heavy during the coming years.
 However, things not bad they might seem, for-as said--debts easy to pay if you have the money And the United States, while she owes more than at any other time in history also has a greater national income than before. Estimates for l945 set the total at $150000 000000 Economists hope that annual national income of S145 0O00 O0O can be maintained when the is over and normal production again is in swing
 If these hopes realized the government will have little difficulty in reducing it's obligations although of course, taxes will continue at high levels But if the national income falls again to the starvation levels of 1932-when it went below the Sl0O0000 900 mark-than it will be nip and tuck to keep the United States from financial ruin.
 Since the beginning of World War II we have increased our national debt six times over That in itself is frightening unless consider the debt n- creases between 1916 and 1919 In those three years America boosted her obligations 20 times overland lived to tell the tale?
 We can come out of the present situation without any more serious effects than a series of hgh-tax years. But to do it must maintain high

Controlling the Budget
(New York Times)

The cost of running the Federal Government after the war is estimated in study published by the Brookngs Institution at $22 300 900 year. This would be about three times great as the annual expenditures in the 1888 fiscal year. about six times great such expenditures in 1923 and about Federal Government in 1917
 The Brookngs study like others that have been made along the lines cannot pretend to be any, thing better than intelligent guesswork It tries to estimate what will be spent national defense on veterans benefits highway grants, on agricultural aids public assistance-and all these expenditures depend upon the policies that Congress and the Administration will adopt. (The Brookings estimate is exclusive of social security expenditures)
 Yet when we try to guess the probabilities item by item most of the Brookngs figures look like esti- mates of minimum rather than of maximum probable expenditures. If the spending philosophy embodied in the Murray bill adopted, for example, post Federal expenditures could be indefinitely greater than the Brookngs total One significant conclusion reached by the study that though the Federal Gov enment would need $5,000,000000 year in 1949 to meet interest charges alone on it's debt even this will not represent the primary postwar fiscal problem That problem will be, rather, the large and growing expenditures" for all functions of the Government
 The service of such a study is that it helps to bring us back realities The great postwar problem will be to bring the Federal budget into some sort of control It will be to bring expenditures down to reasonable point where the budget can be balanced Unless do this, we shall either have to continue taxes heavy that they discourage business activity and so undermine the whole structure of production upon which the real income and welfare of all of us depend, or we shall have to continue budget of deficit that could lead to uncontrolled inflation
 Yet while this is the real problem that we have to deal with we find many of our public officials Federal State and local busy devsing governmental spending schemes to increase monetary purchasing power (aready far in of the volume of civilian goods) and to prevent "deflation'
