Mr. Curley has granted every

mayor says she has never asked
anything of him for herself she
greatly appreciates the page

even when there was no need
for advertising, this in line

THE SPOTLIGHT
BID ME TO LOVE
By ALMIRA PARK

do not ask for the heart Of my heart,
/ do not bid thee remain depart.
Let me but love thee and will not plead
Aught save to follow where'er thou dost lead.
All that ask for is all that may be,
All that thou carest to give unto me-
l am content to be this unto thee
To love thee forever and
Let me but live in the light of thy face,
Find in thy heart and thy being place;
Though it to be low, at thy feet, being there
can my homage more fifty declare.
Then the sunfower looks up to the light,
Sad in its absence and glad in its sight
can look up to thee morning and night
And love thee forever and ever.

Lack Of Military
 Justice Bar To Universal Training

WASHINGTON, (P,-Ray Saw yer, national commander of the Amvets, said yesterday that what he called the failure of the army to improve military justice has made it virtually impossible" to obtain Congressional approval of a universal military training pro- gram.
 ''The high command" Sawyer said in a statement, lis still prone to protect and whitewash fellow brass while GI's-the men in the ranks-are subjected to an auto cratic system of regulations, gov ernment and punishment"
 The veterans organization head ed by Sawyer has endorsed pas sage of universal training legisla- ton. Sawyer said the Amvets have concluded, however, that "it is virtually impossible to sell it to Congress until important changes are made in the conduct of the military itself"
 "It is time," he added, flor the brass hats to determine whether they want to continue with pomp and circumstance or whether they want universal military training"

States Food Prices Advance Sharply

NEW YORK, (P)-Retail food prices either advanced or held to their high levels today, but hope of relief was seen in easing whole sale prices for some commodities.
 Eggs hit $l a dozen in some Philadelphia and New York stores. Choice steaks continued to sell at $l pound or better. But ter commanded $l.05 in some stores in both cities, and chain store butter advanced to 92 cents a pound.
 But prices of most grades of butter dropped a cent pound on the New York wholesale market.
 Hope of breaking the upward price spiral also was seen in de- clining futures quotations for food commodities.
 Cheaper cuts of meats edged up- ward as demand was increased by housewives shying away from choice grades.
 Increased prices of poultry, eggs and cheese weer also atribu- ted in part to the search for meat substitutes.
