TO Ernest Bevin,

Dear Ernest:
You have stated that the United
States ought to scatter all over Europe
the gold we have amassed and cached
at Fort Knox. Uncle Sam is over-gener-
Gus but not fool. After World War |,
you chisled us out of $4,000, 900, 900
for which we received not even token
payment; after World War II, we
coughed up $3,750, OO0, 900, which we
may as well kiss goodbye. England is
now seheming how to get another as
Economical loan, and to cap the climax,
you want some of our gold as gift.
Our reward The risk.tof provoking a
war with Russia.
THE ORACLE.

Water Heater Explodes,
Home Destroyed By Fire

Mrs. R. L. Riggs and her two
children are expected to return
tc Wrightsville Beach today, but
they probably will not have a
house according to the husband
who reported Everything in the

Wrightsville Sound home.
Mrs. Riggs and their two sons,
2 and 4 years old, are expected
tc return today from Florida
where they had been visiting re-
latives.
Riggs said yesterday that the
hair was burned from the back
OF his head. and from his arms,
and his hands and arms were
lacerated by an explosion of his
hot water heater which he light
ed while undres sing to battle.
The blast caught Riggs in his
.'scivies" he said, and the fire
which resulted burned all his
worldly possessions, including
some government bonds and what
money he owned.
Robert A. Ashworth, a neighbor
loaned Riggs a pair of trousers
