I'd like to thank all my friends
tn the RICH for their interest in
helping me to learn how to give my
8-month-old (now 10 months) baby
her cup of milk. I tried each sug-
gestion and from them all derived a
workable method that fitted my
child and me. With the next baby
I'll start out differently and expect
no trouble at all / hope other
mothers were benefited by your sug-
gestions as we'll I'm sure they
must have been, as the lady who put
her phone number in for me to call
told me she was flooded with calls.
In appreciation would like to
send in our favorite pie recipe.
. You'll find it makes a hit with the
man of the house.
Southern Pecan Pie: One 9-inch
unbaked pastry shell, cup pecans,

JUVENILES, GUNS AND
PARENTAL CONTROL

When boys in their early teens are per-
mitted to have unsupervised access to
guns, it is almost sure they will use them
carelessly. If trouble comes as a result
of this habit, the responsibility goes
straight to the parent or guardian.
Just now three juveniles in the valley
are under inquiry for firing shots at
planes in the air. Others are sought for
wilfully using guns to damage property.
A target for these unrestricted juveniles,
according to many reports are insulation
installations on power and telephone
lines.
Promiscuous shooting of this kind en-
dangers human lives. 1t would be ter
rible should one of these youngsters have
to face such charge. 1t would be worse
still, for parents to be called to account
for their lack of proper control and to
share responsibility for such an act.
Put the brakes on before there is
chance for loss of human life End this
destructive urge of the juvenile before it
is too late.

They hope that Americans will start

mental about giving their men. This is
one big reason why the japanese fight to

Why they make the Allies pay premium

BOSTON CENSORSHIP ENDS
(Riverside Daily Press)

NhlVefSlQe Dally FfeSS)
"If you want book to sell, get it ban
ned in Boston" This ong-standing advice
to booksellers no longer holds good. A
new law, sponsored by the Massachu-
setts Liberty association, does away with
the old rough-and-ready methods which
brought Boston into disrepute.
Until now any police officer could ar
rest bookseller for selling a book that
offended the officer. The usual procedure
was to threaten the dealer with arrest
unless he got rid of the book. Naturally
most dealers complied. No legal con-
demnation of the book by a properly
constituted authority bad been made yet
condemned it was. Some famous literary
masterpieces fell under this corner po-
liceman's ban, and still other books, far
from masterpieces also fell under this
corner policeman's ill-considered sup
preston.
Henceforth the book rs put on trial,
not the dealer who could not possibly
know the contents of all his books If a
district attorney or the state attorney
general brings a charge against book,
and the state supreme court upholds the
charge, then and only then must the
volume be Withdrawn from sale.
Thus ends an episode which made
sensible Bostonians hang their heads

Divorce RuIinQ
Stirs Congress

WASHINGTON, May %. CUP -
The cupreme courts newest divorce
ruling Tuesday had spurred con-
gressional supporters of uniform
federal divorce law.
The high court, by vote of
to 3 Monday, gave all states the
right to invalidate divorces CT its
residents obtained in other states.
The black-robed justices differed
among themselves IS tc TIE effect
of the decision.
BLACK DISSENTS
Justice Hugo L. Black, in a
lengthy dissenting opinion, declared
the decision would subject the ma
tons entire 100000 divorced per-
sons to t'the danger of criminal
prosecution.
Immediately Sen. Arthur Capper,
R0, Kansas. announced he would
resume his fight for federal law
covering divorces in all 48 states
'in the very near future"
A constitutional m n m n
would be required, since the con-
stituticn gives to the states all
rights and powers not specifically
granted to congress. Congress was
not authorized to rule on marriage
and divorce.
Capper's proposed amendment to
federalize divorces laws has been
dormant in the senate judiciary
committee for several years.
The Kansan said the supreme
courts decision was absolutely
sound"
I'VE should have had uniform di-
vorce laws years ago." he declared.
THE confusion of state laws has
been tremendous and it is hard for
me to understand how we've stood
for them as long as we have. I'm

ment of the committee will be

CHURCHILL COALITION
REGIME IN BREAKUP

Britain's wartime cabinet, now five
years old and the present parliament,
ten years old are hanging in the balance.
And Prime Minister Churchill faces an
election in the midst of half-won war.
The detection started with the labor
party. The decision of a convention of
100 delegates well-nigh was unanimous
It's members are to withdraw from the
coalition set-up. In British procedure,
this means an election. 1t also means that
the king will dissolve parliament upon
request of the Prime Minister and then
the elections would be called. Elections
may not be held at a closer period than
month after the kings official proclama-
tion.
The labor leaders followed their action
with the announcement that they favored
postponing the elections until fall. They
had heard plea from Churchill to let
the coalition government stand until
Japan is defeated To this plea in itself,
the laborites were sympathetic, they as
serted, but set out that they felt that
economic affairs, home and foreign could
not wait.
No doubt jim this attitude they found
support in other government groups as
that the coalition government could not
progress on postwar plans with any de-
gree of unanimity. In fact, the groups
are far apart on cardinal features of the
whole set-up for the peace period.
Labor leaders contended in making the
break from the war government that it
would be unwise, if not disastrous, to per-
nit these wholly economic situations to
reach point where there would be grave
difficulty in discussing them or reaching
conclusions.
When the postwar issue comes square
ly to the front the bone of contention, or
principal one, will be that Of government
operated industry. One wing, with
strong following already has set it's goal
up to 90 per cent of all industry to come
under such control Extremists are far
apart on this question.
1t is fair to assume that all parties,
though not in coalition set-up. will not
permit war plans to lag. All have a
deep interest in the far east and if that
isn't sufficient to maintain war regime,
the matter of being honor-bound to fight
with the United States to the end of the
Japs assures militant, virile govern
ment.
AS to Churchill's fate, it long has been
understood that he has no desire to con-
tinue as Premier after final victory. The
same understanding has it that he is
grooming Anthony Eden as his successor.

War Manpower Commissioner
Paul v. McNutt announces that
81 900 workers would be released
by prime contractors on the Pacific
Coast within the next six. months
but half that number would be

McNutt predicted that the west

it utilized both its agriculture and
its industries. He said, however, that
manpower controls in this area
would stay in effect for the dura-
ton of the Pacific war.
West Coast workers with the nee
essary skills must be diverted to
ship repair and transportation where
skilled craftsmen and men capable
OF hard labor will be needed, Nc
Mutt said, and employment must
be found in civilian activities for
the others.
McNutt reported that the nation
