Tuck Wheeldon was on his way home to lunch on Spruce Lane one day this week, when he came to a small house. The door was open. and smoke was curling from it. Looking in, Tuck saw man asleep on the davenport, and saw that the smoke was coming from along side the man from a spot in the davenport that was burning.
 Tuck went in and called the man but only got a few grunts. so getting some water he applied it to the burning hole in the day- enport, which by now was the size of a big plate and burning vigorously. After several applica- tons ot water luck decided the fire was out and went on home, where he had to explain why he was late for lunch.
 After eating, Tuck left for work and on the way decided to look in to see how the davenport was. The man was still asleep. The fire was apparently safely out.
 But Tuck thought he'd have some fun. Shaking the man wig orously he called to him to wake up, his davenport was a6re!
 That produced results. T know it," said the man as he stirred himself, "I was just fgur- ing out what to do about itp'

Kodiak, we couldn't help but notice, is mentioned in each of the two most recent issues of Es- quire, the magazine for men, which was war casualty in this area. The word Kodiak, not the city.
 In the first, in review of the Bob Hope-BIng Crosby opus, "The Road to Utopia" a movie review said that m the picture "Kodiak" bears talk In another place it says Hope and Crosby land at Skagway-so now we are wondering how a Kodiak bear got over there. And we'll bet when we see the movie, they won't be Kodiak bears at all. In the second issue. there is an ad for aiies' sport jackets One of the numbers is described as being made of "Kodiak" cloth It isn't made at Kodiak, so far as we know, but the cloth is de- scrlbed as water repellent, and maybe it's chrisJener heard that to some Kodlakians water is re- pellent.

President Instructs AL
Agencies To Slice OPP
Grating Expenses

WASHINGTON, Aug. l. up =
President Truman aligned him
self anew Thursday with the advo.
Gates of a federal anti-lynchine
act.
His views on the proposal were
asked at a news conference in con
nection with the shooting of foul
negroes by a band Of white men
at Monroe, Ga, last week.
Mr.. Truman recalled that, as
a Senator, he voted for the anti
lynching bill every time it came ur
and his tone gave every indication
that, as President, he would sign
such a measure. But its prospects
appear remote in view of plans for
Congress to adjourn soon and the
Southern filibuster it inevitably
would provoke.
Three Announcements
Mr.. Truman opened his weekly
session with reporters with three
announcements:

and agency heads to cut expenses

PRESIDENT VETOES
|TIDELANDS' BILL
Act Would Give Up Federal
Claims To Rich Coastal
Oil Lands

WASHINGTON, Aug. 1.-P)-
President Truman vetoed the So
called ""Tidelands Oil Bill''. Thurs
day, declaring that the question
whether the nation or the states
own the lands in question should be
decided by the Supreme Court, not
by Congress. ,.
The bill would have renowned
any Federal claim to certain oil
rich lands, principally lands be-
tween the low tide mark and the
three mile limit.
Vital Problems
"The ownership of the vas,
quantity of oil in such areas pre-
sents a vital problem for the ma
ton from the standpoint of ma
tionai defense and conservation"
Mr.. Truman wrote.
IF the United States owns these
areas, they should not be given
away. If the Supreme Court de-
cides that the United States has
no title to or interest in the lands,
