Study of physical chemistry is a
prerequisite.
Mr.. Biesterfeld has taught the
patent law course three times pre-
viously at the University, the last
time having been in 1945. The sub
ject matter of the lecture series
formed the basis for a textbook on
patent law, published in 1943 by
Wiley and Company. Mr.. Biester-
field has largely completed work on
second edition of his Patent
Law" which he hopes to publish in
about one year. During the COM
ing lectures, he will give the class
the changed statutes and new
court decisions that have changed
the patent law since his 1943 edi-
tion.

What other form of government,
indeed, can so well deserve our es-
TEEN and love.@John Adams.
Smyrna times., 1947-09-11

For Safety" they say. But is it?
Government figures show definitely
that long trains mean greater safety to
railroad employees and public alike.
Then, if safety is not the real reason
what is the reasorf behind this demando
1t is to make more jobs which are not
needed-to get more pay! This made
work" would be sheer lUaste. Think of big,
modern locomotives using only half their
power.
For this waste, you-the public-would
have to pay. Higher costs mean a lower
standard of living for everybody. No
body Wdnts that!
Smyrna times., 1947-09-11

Big locomotives are built to do big job
in the big country which is America-a
big job in peacetime as in wartime. They
are built to pull long trains.
Long freight trains can handle more
goods at less cost-to you-than short
trains.
Long trains mean fewer trains-fewer
chances for accidents-fewer Interrupt
tions to traffic.
But few railroad union leaders op-
pose long trains among their current a
demands for changes in rules is one limit
ing the length of freight trains to 81 aver
age cars. Why do they demand this?

Real Tax Bill Introduced By Rep. J. Dingell

WASHINGTON - CPD = The average taxpayer would get big break in the unlikely event that the Republican-dominated 80th Congress should pass a federal tax reduction bill T1R. 4708, introduced Dec. Il by Rep. John Dingell CD, Mich.).
 The Detroit liberals measure would slash about $2 billion from the annual amount paid by the pub- lie in the form of income taxes, commonly known as ''hidden sales taxes" It would also increase per- sOnal exemptions by $lOO, which would bring a cut of about $ZO yearly for most taxpayers.
 The Dingell move beat the expected introduction of tax slash measure by Rep. Harold Knutson (R, Minn.) who will base his bill on percentage income tax cuts, which favor the rich. His 1048 version, however, will prob ably be given some minor sugar-coat- ing to make 1t less obnoxious to low income groups.
 Taxes on tires, tubes, trucks, cars and auto parts and accessories would be lowered under the Dim geu plan, and wartime rates on transportation tickets, admissions and drug store items would be re- peaIed. The bill would also wipe out the federal tax on Oleomarga- rine, which takes in $6 million yearly. ''It's a tax on the spread on the poor mans bread," said Din-

my mind became blunted to the dangers of it. Anyhow, I walked right in the cage and worked those lions and tigers around as if I'd been born to it." Which he was, but didn't know it.
 Ever hear of a young short order cook in roadside diner who wa1loped world middleweight champion? It happened. Mickey Walker, then the champ, entered the place with com panions, all a few sheets in the wind. A wrangle ensued. Mickey and the skillet kid tangled and the worlds best middleweight took a brief beating.
 Next morning the Dempsey of the Diners woke up to find himself famous. All the papers had the story. It was big news to Kid Skillet that he had been ploughing his knuckles into the royal features of Mickey Walker. Mickey, fine guy, took it in good humor, even offered to launch the kid on a ring career.
 CALL A MISTAKE"
 It developed that the cook was a mild-mannered young guy. He knew nothing about prize-fghting, cared even less He was uneasy about having mussed up the great Walker.
 ''It was all a mistake am wanna drop the whole thing. I'm perfectly satisfied right here behind the pots and pans am the ketchup bottle,' '' Kid Skillet explained. And SO he was.
 Footballs classic moment was the drunk who wandered on the playing field during a Princeton-Dartmouth grid battle about 12 years ago. As the pulverizing Princeton backs worked l the ball near the Greens goal the souse obeyed the impulse to express hitherto inhibited powers. Unsteadily he made his way unhampered from the stands to the line of scrimage. He crouched for the attack, and it came around his end.
 Caught in the furious swirl of grid ders, the drunk magically remained

Taft And Ball Do Flip Flop On
 NLRB Members

Washington (LPA) - Sen. Rob- ert Taft (R., O. reversed himself last week as the Senate Labor Com mittee voted to approve the ap- pOintments of former Sen. Abe Murdock O., Utah) and J. Cope land Gray as members of the Natl Labor Relations Board.
 The Committee unanimously recom- mended their confirmation along with the appointment of NLRB General Counsel Robert Denham. However, in the last session of Congress the Com mittee split 10 to three for confrma- ton of Murdock and Gray with Taft one of the three voting against the two nominees.
 Taft said his change of heart was caused by the fact that both men now serving under interim appoint ments-"have done a good job up to date" That also was the opinion of Sen. Joe Ball (R., Minn.) who orig inally opposed Murdock because he feared that Murdock, a former New Deal senator, could not be in full sym pathy with the purposes of the Taft Hartley law.

tiOns were also unanimously ap- proved: David A. Morse to be Un- dersecretary of Labor; John Kmetz to be Assistant Secretary of Labor; :; and Cyrus Ching to be director of the new Federal Mediation & Con- ciliatiOn Service. Taft said that all six nominations may come up for confirmation during this session if time can be found.
 Another Truman nomination met tougher sledding when President John L. Lewis, of the United Mine Work ers-AFL, reopened his attack on Dr.. James Boyd named as head of the Bu- reau of Mines. Lewis opposition pre- vented Boyd's confirmation after he was nominated for the post last March.
 Boyd, who has been serving under a Congressional recess appointment, is unqualified for the position because of his lack of experience in the field, the UNIV chief contended. Boyd was "sold" to President Truman by h. terior Secretary Krug because the latter wanted to get rid' of Dr. R. R. Savers, former head of the Bureau of Mines. Savers is now chairman of the medical board of the UMW's health and welfare fund.
 In addition, Lewis contended in a letter to the Senate Public Lands Committee, that Boyd was ineligible on grounds of citizenship. Boyd, a native Australian, claimed citizenship because of his fathers naturalization but Lewis expressed doubt as to whether Boyd was young enough at the time to claim citizenship automat- ically under his fathers naturalization.

HAIL, SID FRANKLIN
 It could be argued that the dar ing young man had the makings of great bull-fighter. It also sug. gested that the deeds of brilliant sports champions are often exag- gerated.
 F'rinstance, a few years ago a Brooklyn boy made good in Spanish and other bull rings. All an accident, you might say. Sid Franklin was a commercial artist enjoying a vacation in Spain. The bull scraps fascinated him. And the first thing you knew he was bull-hghter. He had the stuff, too. In time, he became one of Spain's most popular matadors.
 Sidney told me: "Td never thought of bull-fghts before, yet the whole thing came as natural to me as watch ing the Dodgers play. Nothing to it after I got the hang of it"
