Details of the recently announced Interna-
tional Harvester policy of making price
reductions to save users of our products
approximately 500, 100000 year have now
been worked out.
We have reduced prices on 1853 models.
These cover IL basic models of farm trac-
tors, 1923 basic models of farm machines, 16
basic models of industrial tractors and en-
gines, and IL models of motor trucks, as
well as certain motor truck attachments.
The new lower prices are effective as of
i March 10, 1947.
These reductions were made not because
of any decline in demand, but because we
believe nothing is more important to this
country than to lower the prices of the goods
people buy.
While prices have not been changed on
all products, we have made reductions wher-
ever possible, in the amounts possible. Prices
of many of our most popular products have
been substantially lowered. .
Altogether, more than half of the COM
pany's customers will be benefited by the
reductions, which range from % to 1880
and from $3.50 to $500 per item, based on
list prices, FOB. Chicago.
Since the people have demanded that the
government withdraw from price control in
peacetime, the responsibility to keep prices
in check is back where it should be-in the
hands of business and industry. The bust

RURAL REFUSE DISPOSAL

Having had something to say about the
syesore created by dumping garbage and
trash along the highways, the Star has
been bordering how the nuisance might
be abated.
The best way is to convince suburban
and rural residents that they will be
performing a public service by abandon
ing the bad habit.
II is always possible for householders
10 have their own crematories even in
these days Of metal shortages. Garbage
and all trash except tin cans can be dis
posed Of in them.
1t is also possible to bury cans and other
unburnable refuse in backwards or dis
pose Of it in hollows far from main high
ways.
This places the responsibility upon the
Individual, where it properly belongs.
An alternative method would be for the
county government TO provide pits in iso-
lated spots, also far from highways but
easily accessible. where residents could
deposit refuse and from which it could
be periodically hauled away by the county
or covered with earth and other pits dug
elsewhere.
If this were done and a county requla-
tion provided punishment for residents
failing 10 use these pits or burying refuse
.. on their own properly, the highways
=. would soon present a different picture
: than we are now used TO encounterinq and
which is the cause Of so much complaint
among VISITORS.
There is no definite assurance that this
Is the solution Of the problem, but it is
certain that something ought to be done
. TO stop the promiscuous dumping Of refuse
. along the borders Of the county's thorough.
fares. The county commission is 10 be
encouraged TO consider the problem with

necessary TO rapid expansion. Money that,
in past times, would have gone for new
plants, new developments, new employ
ment, now goes TO the tax collector.
Senator Gordon Of Oregon put the issue
we'll when he said that, once we make it
impossible for the small concern TO pro-
gress and reach its proper place in the
economic sun, we are paving the way for
monopoly. And monopoly is the sursst
road known to socialism - with its de-
struction Of all traditional American free
domS.
The tax structure must be revised to per-
nit all enterprise to grow, to compete.
and to become big if it has the capabil-
lilies. That. is the way this nation was
built. That is the way we became the
worlds greatest and richest power in a
century and a half. A tax system which
says, in effect, Small business must re-
main small" will prove ruinous to all.
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-02-15
INCONSISTENT

Is the Republican majority in Congress
going Russian on us?
II might be thought so when the Joint
Senate-House BudgetarY Committee votes
10 exclude the press and the public from
its sessions considering a six billion dollar
cut in President Truman's buduet esti-
mate.
The democratic Senate leader, Senator
Barkley Of Kentucky, opposed the move
on the ground that the people should know
what is going on, but was squelched when
the committee voted 10 hold star-chamber
sessions, 40 to 27.
How can we raise the wind over Mos
cows intention 10 limit the number Of cor.
respondents at the forthcoming peace
parleYs, on the score that the world al
large should know all that goes on, when
an important congressional group at home
goes Moscow one better by ruling the
press out entirely?
In one case or the other we are qriev-
ouslY inconsistent. And if we sense the
public mind correctly the verdict stands
against the joint BudgetarY Committee
We have been putting up a stiff fight
TOR the freedom Of the press, and it has
been a righteous fight. Now ii seems
likely that it must be abandoned, because
the joint Budgetary Committee apparently
is afraid TO come out in the open.

CHE TOWER OF B A b E L by
Elias Canetti, translated by C.
v. Wedgwood CKnopf; $3.50.
Three men and a woman are
the principal characters in this
overly long and obscure novel, to
which three publishers, in Vienna,
London and New York, apparent.
ly as uncertain Of it's significance
as some readers will be, have ap-
piled three different titles.
OF the men, Peter KEN, student
of ancient Chinese lore, comes
first. Then there are Therese
Krumbholz. his housekeeper and
wife; the hunchback chess player
Fischerle; d Peters brother
George, a successful psychiatrist.
The outer world comes knocking
too insistently on the door OF
Peters book-liaed retreat, and the
man who had been SO scholarly
as to be almost incredible goes
the whole hog and becomes com
pletely insane. It's the story, Or
worse, the exposition, of the book
worm who refuses to turn.
Despite p 6 of undeniable
brilliance and occasional remarks
which are psyehologically pro
found, the author repeats too often
the device of letting h i S people
talk at cross purposes, or rather,
relies too often on the conflict be.
tween two mutually incompre-
hensible sectors of society. Though
it all looks important, it seems to
me merely inadequate.

Written for NEA Service
When Harry J. Fishbein gave
me today's h and he said,
Good bridge hands are not neces-
sarily only those that can be made
against any defense. The defender
made a mistake on this hand, and
declarer did we'll to take advan-
tage OF it."
When the king of clubs held the
opening lead, West did not con.
tinue with the ace of clubs, but
shifted to the king of diamonds.
Declarer won this with dummy S
ace. cashed the ace and king Of
hearts, then led the jack of hearts.
1t East did not hold the queen.
declarer would ruff the trick, and
hope to find the king of spades
in the West hand.
However, when East played the
queen, South was careful to dis
card his club. Now he could ruff
the third diamond in dummy. re-
turn to his, hand by trumping a
club and take the spade finesse.
Fishbein believes that no one
can be a good bridge player I'M
less he is quick to take advantage
of the opponents mistakes. Il
West had cashed the ace and king
of clubs before leading a diamond.
declarer would have been locked
out of his hand and would have
lost two clubs, a diamond and a
spade.

PROBLEM In JURISPRUDENCE

When Circuit Judge Waller c. Hendrix
OF Fulton county, Georgia, ruled that Her
man Talmadge is governor of that be-
nighted state, he took issue with Circuit
Judge Claude Porter, at Rome, who had
previously declared the lieutenant uov-
ernor, M. E.. Thompson, entitled TO the
office.
1t now becomes the duty Of the State
Supreme Court 10 choose between the two
rulings and the two men. What its de-
cision will be is a moot question.
A tine point may be raised il, as is
generally reported, the new Constitution
Of Georgia provides that if a duly elected
governor dies before taking the oath the
Legislature may declare the man polling
the largest number Of written-in votes
entitled to the office. On this provision
it would seem that the younger Talmadqe
Is in actual fact Georgia's CHIEF executive,
and that Thompson, although elected
Lieutenant governor. is beyond the pale
1t could be put up to the Supreme Cour1
TO decide if the new Constitution is con.
stituiional, which would be a new and
strange problem in jurisprudence.

REMEMBER LITTLE BUSINESS

When Congress finally gets down to
cases on what is to be done about govern

taxation, it should look squarely at this
grim fact: the small and medium-sized
enterprise is taking the worst beating

The big business, with reserves of CAP

able to look out for itself. But the small

Religion
IN OLD CHRIST CHURCH
BY L T. ELLIS

On a Sunday morning the fami-
ly drove into Philadelphia to wor.
ship in old Christ Church, where
Washington and other leaders O.
the Revolution had peWs. It was
a stirring experience. The old
building, the ancient pews with
their brass labels, the memorial
tablets on the walls, the unusual
stained glass windows, h e flags
by the altar. the venerable com
munion vessels; and the straight
from-the- shoulder sermon O: the
rector, all conspired to make the
occasion memorable.
Naturally, the outstanding i'm
preston carried away was the
part that religion has had in the
making Of our nation. America
was, is and must continue tc be
a Christian land.
With uaflagging tality, old
Christ Church continues to minis
ter, in most modern fashion, to
the twenty-one nationalities found
in its parish.
Our fathers were God-fearing
men, and we thank Thee, Lord,
for the heritage they have left us.
May we never dishonor 1t. AMEN.

ALL ABOARD FOR AzALEA FESTIVAL

ALL ABOARD FOR AzALEA FESTIVAL
An Azalea Festival in l948 moved a
step nearer fulfillment at the meeting in
the Chamber Of Commerce headquarters
Thursday evening when an organization
was formed TO promote the project, with
Hugh Morton as guiding spirit.
The undertaking has long been close
to the heart Of DR.. W. Houston Moore and
it may iruthfully be said thai but for his
perseverance through years Of discourage
ment backed by the Junior Chamber Of
Commerce and the Greenfield Park AS
ISOLATION, the present effort would hardly
have taken form. Il, was Doctor Moore
who called the Thursday meeting and who
personally contacted leaders Of civic and
other organizations urging that they send
representatives.
The plan, as it now stands, is TO hold
the event while the a%zaleas are in full
bloom, with Greenfield park the central
point Of attraction and to have a carni-
val on the lake during the period set
aside for festival. Ii is an ambitious
program, even in a preliminary stage. but
can be carried out, and be completely sue
%cessful, both artistically and in a bust
ness way, with the active support Of all
groups in the community.
AT the same time it is to be noted thai
ii will be a dismal failure if the work is
left to a few enthusiasts and organizations
generally merely offer their moral sup
port. There is.no way better TO kill a
worthwhile undertaking than TO burden
ii with moral support. The need is for
actual cooperation by the public. Ii will
take work, hard work. to put the festival
over, and there is a job for everybody.
With adequate effort and exploitation,
the festival will bring thousands Of visi-
tors TO the city from a much wider area
than southeastern North Carolina. Accom-
modafions must be provided for the visi-
TORS. 1t is not merely an artistic and en-
tertainment project, but a housing project
as we'll, and a feeding project, a parking
project, a hospitality project. These are
mentioned only TO indicate the magnitude
Of the venture and the necessity for
thorough organization and w~holehearted
cooperation by all elements Of the popula-
tion.
The time is none TOO long. If the people
OF the community swing into line now and
show similar willingness to help that they
did when the junior college project WIS
presented TO the Board Of County Commits.
s%ioners, the l949 Azalea Festival may
we'll be the beginning Of as notable an
annual event as the Pasadena Tourna-
ment Of Roses, which started as humbly,
has become.
