Tax Suit 'Joke'
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Dec. 27.-Harry Car
son, 43. truck driver who said he
formerly operated a handbook, is
being sued by the Federal Govern
ment for $324,5s5.s2 in unpaid in
come taxes for 1896.
Some joke" Carson said in COM
menting on the suit filed in Federal
Court yesterday. Maybe I can
scrape up the 90 cents"
Carson told reporters Federal
agents two years ago had asked him
how much he made while operating
a handbook in 1886.
Il told them I cleared about 81 ,0OO
day after expenses" Carson said
II didn't have any books or records
They figured somehow that there
were 324 working days and that
owed $324,59592"
Carson added he did not know
what he had done with the money
and said he wouldn't be working as
a truck driver If he had any left.

Cheerful School Buildings
Are Urged by Architect
BY the Assoeiated Press

STATE COLLEGE, Pa.-Elemen-
tary school buildings with cheerful
wall colors and movable seats to
replace structures designed and
built "as a monument to the school
board are urged by a Pennsylvania
State College assistant professor of
architecture.
School design in this country has
Jagged far behind progress made in
teaching" said F. c. Salmon. And
the cost for a well-planned elemen-
tary school often is less than the
cost for poorly designed building.
During the 10th century," he
continued. "a typical classroom, "a
by 30 feet, with high ceiling,
drab walls, windows on only one
side, and fixed seats evolved.
Because natural light in half a
classroom with windows on only one
side is far from sufficient and be-
cause many children write with the
left hand, light should enter the
room from at least two sides"
The ideal elementary school build
ing, Salmon said in an interview,
should be one-story structure with
adequate playground, constructed In
residential area, away from in
dustries and heavily-traveled high
ways.

Law on Budget Cei|in!!
Creates Problem for
Republican Leaders

One Of the first decisions facing
Republican policymakers when Con-
gress returns next month will be
what to do about the law which di-
rects them to fix a ceiling on the
Federal budget each year.
The Congressional Reorganiza-
ton Act OF 1916 requires the taxing
and spending committees of the
House and Senate to get together
at the beginning of each regular
session and estimate the Govern
ment's probable income and outgo
for the next fiscal year. The law
calls for their report by February Is.
The theory behind the provision
was that the lawmakers could
achieve a balanced budget by set
ting an overall limit on Govern
ment spending before any of the
detailed appropriation bills are
drafted.
The Republicans, who found the
new law staring them in the face
when they took control of Congress
last January. tried to carry it out for
this year, but were unable to get an
agreement.
The House voted to cut $4,000, ,000,-
900 from the s37,5Oo, 100000 budget
President Truman submitted year
ago. The Senate set it's sights lower
at 81, 500 100000. The budget CELL
ing resolution then went to con-
ference committee, where 1t re-
manned deadlocked throughout the
session.
Even without the ceiling, however,
the COP leaders trimmed appropria-
tions, but the session closed in mid
summer with varying estimates OF
how much had been saved.
At the start of 1s4S the task will
not be easier, with the Marshall
plan awaiting early action and Re-
publicans planning to revive their
efforts to cut income taxes.
It is estimated that At per cent
OF all rural highways in the United
States are surfaced.

Western Union WAGE
DISPUTE Meets Monday
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

A three-man panel named to set
tie ma jor points in dispute between
Western Union and three AFL
unions will hold its first meeting
here Monday.
Cyrus S. Ching, director of the
Federal Mediation and Cancellation
Service, yesterday selected Eugene
Meyer, chairman ofsathe board OF
the Washington Post; Waldo E.
Fisher, University of Pennsylvania
professor, and Charles A. Horsky,
Washington attorney, to serve on the
panel.
The unions called off a strike
scheduled last Tuesday, and agreed
with the company to let a panel
selected by Mr.. Ching decide on the
proper period for comparing wage
profit relationships in new wage
negotiations. The arbitrators will
not, however, pass on union de-
mand for wage increases Of IS cents
an hour for $4,000 workers.
Another point to be decided is
the date any new wage rates will
be applied-last October ! or No.
vember !.
The panel is to hear both sides on
these two points and make bind
ing decisions by February 8. After
that, the company and unions will
resume their wage negotiations.
The three unions involved are
the Commercial Telegraphers Union
the Telegraph Workers Union
and the Telegraph Employees Union,
all AFL.
Telephone workers, represented by
the Communications Workers of
America, an independent union, plan
to begin negotiating with Bell Tele-
phone companies In early spring.
at about the same time the Western
Union Telegraph Workers resume

President Truman had trouble
with a respiratory disturbance last
winter and this was one of the rea-
sons for the brief holiday he took
in Florida in March after his state
visit to Mexico City.
Microscopic studies of the Agar
plates show that the bacteria count
in Mr.. Truman's Offices is highest
during news conferences, at which
attendance usually is around 100.
When the two special lights are
on, marked reduction in the bac-

This type of prevention also would
be adaptable to such occasions as

'"CHAPERON"

The Associated Press relays to The
Citizen an item, under a Springfield,
Mass, date line, that is not only clever
and humorous but also contains good adj
vice in concise form. The Springfield
Hotel Association is given as the source
of the item:
"Chaperon your cigarettes. Don't
let them 60 out alone"
Of course, it is understood that the
advice is applied to lighted cigarettes,
dangerous indeed if they are allowed to
''go out, alone" Many fires have been
caused and some lives lost by cigarettes.
A few days ago the Associated Press sent
out story about bridegroom of IA hours
who went to sleep with a lighted cigarette
in his hand and lost his life by the fire
caused by the burning cigarette.
But great many more things in life,
besides cigarettes, need 'chaperOning".
Blessed is the man who is able to CHAP
erone" his temper, and he is thriced bless
ed if he "chaperons" his tongue when he
is tempted to spread a rumor or to malign
his fellowman.
If your ear is ready to listen to gossip,
keep your tongue from sounding it into
somebody's else ear. Some. of us are so
constituted that if We hear something good
about a man, we do not repeat it, but if
what we hear shows him up in a bad light
we are itchy until we can find others to
regale with the story.
- Our best "chaperon" is our consci-
ence. But we should bear in mind that con-
science can be so hardened that it no long
err is trustworthy directing factor in our
lives. Fact is, man has no conscience
when he is stepped in crime. Ordinarily,
conscience, if adhered to, is a monitor
that can be depended on to keep us in the
straight and narrow path"
You are an upright man if your con-
science is your "chaperon'' in your deal
ings with your fellowmen.

MAYBE: IF DREAMS COME TRUE

Ever since Virginia sold little apples
prophets have been telling the American
public about the constant increase of free
enterprise and World trade To support
this unproven tradition the United States
has made efforts to sell its wares in foreign
markets. On the other hand we have al
ways grabbed the short end of the bar
gam in trying to drum up foreign trade
The foreigners always want to sell us their
goods, and they bring their wares to the
United States and undersell our own mer-
chants and manufacturers. Things "got
worse fast" when Cordell Hull was Secre-
tary of State. He made substantial re-
ductions in tariffs that were not to the adj
vantages of the United States. If the old
Republican party doctrine hasn't fallen to
pieces it's leaders in Congress will start
soon to raise our tariff laws to higher
levels. And that would be good thing
for America!
