Truman Is Making

Truman. Mr. Powell differed with
the Presidents statement that the

His utterance that Mrs. Truman

consensus among liberal people is
that she blundered in asking why

she intended to attend teas given
by the OAR in the future.
Mr.. Powell has gone farther and

IN RAID ON A
NARCOTIC Den

A servicemans wife and her
seven-year-old son were among
20 persons seized by police dur
ing the last two weeks in an al
legged dope den" at 81 E. Garfield,
a few doors from Garfield station.
The boy was not held by the po-
lice.
According 10 1t. Albert Carter
OF the narcotic squad. the arrests
have apparently halted the theft
OF narcotic and instruments which
thugs have taken from automo-
biles belonging TO physicians
throughout the city.
POLICE DISCLOSED that the
gang stole physicians medicine and
instrument bags. They used the
prescription pads found in the
bags TO forge narcotic prescrip-
tions. which police say several
members OF the gang had passed
at several. undisclosed drug stores
during the past two months.
Carter estimated that approxi-
mately $50 fake prescriptions had
been passed and the drugs, ap-
proximately several thousand
dollars worth. had fallen into the
hands Of dope addicts and junk
ers.
Among those held following the
raid at approximately 3 am. on
Oct. 30 at 81 T. Canfeld were Rob-
