EJJzABETHTOWN, Oct. o.
The Bladen Lakes State forest,
owned by the United 81, De-
partment of Forestry and Leased
to the North Carolina Depart
ment of Forestry, contains 49,,
900 acres of timbered lands and
four large lakes.
Primarily it is a teacher but
in order to have its teachings
adopted and followed by others,
it must prove what it is asking
others to accomplish.
Its goal is to prove that trees
are an annual, undiminlshed
crop. not an investment that
disappears with one marketing
and with one harvest.
These government -orests ano
parks sometimes use long words
describing the variations OF
scientific, controlled forestry but
it. all can be phr ased in tie
simplest possible English. 1t un-
dertakes to prove that what
one harvests and markets IN.
creases the value of the original
| investment and that the har-
vesting and the marketing can
take place annually and often
even more frequently.
Study that carefully. An IN,
vestment that increases in value
every time part of it is sold for
a profit and never is exhausted
is an investment the value o1
which is beyond estimation. II
is something that can be handed
down from generation to gen
Grafton, growing more valuable
every year. That sounds like {
miracle, but tlmbered areas like
the Bladen Lakes State forest

glass in her thin hands.
"Could I be an elephant?'
she asked. ..
"Of course. But We'll have to
talk about it a little more if
you'll let me come down 10
your room to a party some
time. And after Halloween
We'll talk about Christmas. Do
you like Christmas?"
81 love Christmas"
s'Here, have cookie. What
do you want for Christmas?"
The bell rang downstairs. :.
Alison sat perfectly still as if
Fpowerless to move. Was it
Sam? She looked at Sans
daughter whose wondering
glance told her that her own
expression had changed. 1t was
obvious even to Suzy. How
could it fail to be obvious to
him in the frank, afternoon
light?
You don't know until it hap
pens to you, she thought, that
love is kind of purifier and a
light that shines through your
countenance. An honest and
shameless light that wants its
beauty to shine on the outside.
And you don't know until it
happens to you that everything
you see is suffused with your
llove and that nothing is ever
truly yours again because your
love has created a passionate
desire for sharing.
She came out of her room
with Suzy at her heels just as
Miss Winstead was coming
down the steps.
"There's someone at the
door," Alison said.
But when she opened the door
a boy thrust box in her hand
and swiftly departed. A box
from a florist. Flowers. Flow
ers for Teresa. Not Sam, but
flowers for Teresa from Philip.
She remembered that this was
the night Teresa was going to
the theatre.
When Teresa came down
from her nightly 20 minutes
with her daughter she looked
puzzled and amused.
"She's terribly excited about
something tonight. I couldn't
make head or tail of it. Some
thing about an elephant. l took
her to the zoo, but that was
last summer"
Teresa poured herself a cock
tail. Alison didn't take one to-
night.
II was telling her about Hal
low{'en, that children could
dress up like elephants on Hal
lowe'en.
"Really? She was positively
intrigued. She's been too young
for me to do anything about it
before and I've always thought
it a silly, crude custom any
way. Besides, I'll probably be
out of town at the end of the
month. In Florida for at least

This Was The Year
(The Denver PoSt)

(The Denver POSt)
 ONLY A FEW MUSTY historians remember the sink ing fund act adopted by Congress March 3, 1919. Members of the eghteth Congress wrestling with the problem of tax cuts and national debt reduction would be well to recall it.
 This the year. under the sinking fund act, when the United States government to be free of debt The act divided the debt of July 1920 into domestic and foreign categores The government owed about 10 billions to bondholders, and about and one-haf bil- lions had been loaned to other nations
 Under the acts amortization provisions the entire do mesc debt be retired by 1945. The foreign debt to be iqudated by June 15, 1947 under terms of the foreign debt funding act of 1922 It all very simple, businesslike and reassuring.
 But the nations of Europe met trouble and defauted their payments. Then the depression and the national debt World II, lend-ease and for eign credits sent the debt skyrocketing.
 The public debt June 15 according to President Trumans budget, instead of being lquidated will be more than 260 billion dollars.

And any action sought in the United Nations to stop the of against Greece and Turkey be killed by the Soviet veto.

The federal tax slash plan ap- proved by the house ways and means committee is fair enough. Twenty million persons with tax able incomes up to S1,000 would get a 30 per cent reduction. A 20 per cent cut would be made on taxable incomes between $1,395 and $302,000, with a 10 per cent cut on those above S3O2,OO0. On taxable incomes between $l,00O

and $1,395, a flat $57 reduction would be given each taxpayer.
 No tax reduction program which will satisfy everybody can be worked out. One of the most com mendable features of the plan pro- posed by the House committee is that it gives the most relief to the lower income brackets where it is most needed. Not only is this sound economically, but it is po-
The Nome nugget., 1947-04-07

federal income taxpayers will get the 30 per cent tax cut.
 The proposed tax cut is expect ed to reduce federal revenue by 3,840 million dollars a year. At the same time, the Republican-con- tsolled Congress plans to make GOO million dollar payment on
 he national debt. That is where
 he COP fiscal program is most open to criticism. The debt pay ment should be at least 5 billions. Even at that rate, it would take more than fifty years to get this country out of the mire of debt, if federal budgets were kept balanced that long.
 Every patriotic American should applaud President Truman'S order that all government departments be pufged of subversive influences. This country cannot successfully combat Communist aggression abroad while tolerating Commun- iSt infiltration at home. President Truman's order recognizes Ameri- can Communists for what they are enemies of this country. Com muniSm in the United States is a conspiracy which aims at the vio- lent overthrow of our constitution al form of government and the substitution of totalitarianism.
 American Reds and Pinks will wrap themselves in the American flag and Shriek to the high heav- ems that the Presidents purge or uer is an unconstitutional violation of civil rights and individual free doms That is asinine. The Presi- dent has taken a solemn oath to support the constitution. He can't support the constitution by allow ing federal departments to have employees who are plotting to de- stroy that constitution.
 There can be no question about the conStitutionality of President Truman'S purge order. The United States supreme court recently af- firmed the right of the federal civil service commission to discharge a federal employee because he was a Communist. Years ago, when he was a justice in the Massachusetts supreme court, the late Chief Jus tice Holmes of the United States supreme court pointed out that no person has any constitutional right to be employed by the government. And just as the government has the unquestioned right to pick it's employees, it also has the right and duty to select and retain only those whose loyalty to American ideals and American institutions is beyond question.
 Under the Truman order, the at torney general is to make and maintain a list of SubverSive or ganizations. Membership in or sympathetic association" with any of these will be ground for stamp ing a person disloyal. Included in the governments blacklist will be all "totalitarian, Fascist, Commun- ist or subversive" groups; all that approve or advocate force to deny individual constitutional rights; all who advocate change of our form of government by unconstitutional methods.
