Not Ready
For Freddy
But getting back to girls which
is something I like to do at any
time. I repeat myself that there
is nothing like having a bunch of
pretties around to add a little
sparkle and zest to things. For
example I walked into a local
session the other week where the
girls were supposed to wear dirn-
dies.
I am not too sure What dirndles
are, but think that the skirts hug
the waist and flare out or some
thing, like broomstick skirts,
which I am all infavor of. Any
way with the dirndles, the girls
wore light blouses in white or with
refreshing summary patterns.
Walking into the hall and see
ing gay lassies in white, fresh
blouses and gay patterned skirts
swirling to rhythm quickened this
pulse of mine no end. Nosslir,
when this sort of thing comes up,
am not Ready for Freddy yet by
any means.
I might add I jitterbugged that
night like I never jitterbugged be-
fore. Most Of it ad libbing, too,
and I couldn't do it again on bet
unless of course, there is similar
; stimulation swirling around.
So, a final note, 1 like girls,
Nisei girls, hakujin girls, or any
other. You can start psychoana-
lying me and figure out the frus-
tration in my mental complex If
you like.
While you're doing that, I am
going to put my bow tie into
place and CAD off to the Canteen,
right after I see what happened
to Peerless Fosdick. Bring on the
girls. -.

Stimulation
There is nothing like a pretty
girl to make the world, which
everyone seems to think is in
pretty grim state, seem a brighter
and happier one.
Recently we had an informal dis
cussion on minority discrimination.
Since two Of the chief guests were
fighting racial intolerance we got
lot of new angles on the pre-
JUDGE problem and the session was
stimulating one.
But along with this was the fact
that among those present were
several young Nisei pretties. AS
the evening progressed I found my
self sitting very strategically in one
corner with lovely damsels on all
sides This development was not
wholly unintentional, must con-
fcss. Yup, I'm cunning like a fox.
There were time when my at
tention wandered from the theme
of the talks, although 1 do not
think missed any important
points. But I'm sure that the o.
theirs in the discussion will fully
understand my straying from COM
plete concentration. The distrac-
ton was somewhat overpowering
Post--ession comments included
one obout how much nicer it was
to have bevy of beauties present
along with tina stimulating talk
and also some things very compli-
mentary about Nisei girls having
lots on the ball as far as looks
and smartness in dressing and
grooming went. I heartily agreed
Illustration
Writing about girls in these COL
umns is a foolhardy thing at the
I best, judging from recent exper-
fence of other columnistS. 1t seems
that if you say Nisei girls ore pref
ty much all right, somebody turns
around with a psychoanalysis OF
the writer and suggests he is frvs-
trated because he can't get any.
where with hakujin girls and so he
goes out on limb about Nisei-
cites. On the other hand, if you
say that hakujin girls are pretty
much okay, bop, the rebutta
comes: Hum, he can't get any.
where with Nisei girls so he goe.
around saying nice things about
hakujin females. Humphl"
It's pretty vicious cast-iror
icrcle and there seems to be nj
way of getting out. of it.
But say hooey to all that. Not
that I suggest that Illustration is
not good charge to aim at writ.

French Troops Close

By the Associated Press

PARIS, Jan. 20.-French troops
were reported closing in on the
Indo-China town of Hue today in
an effort to relieve the isolated and
embattled garrison, which has been
holding out against repeated at
tacks by Wet Nam nationalist
since December 10.
French forces in Indo-China
meanwhile, were augmented by the
arrival of the cruiser Duquesne
carrying elements of the 25th Air
borne division.
Launching of the relief operation
at the town of Hue was announced
| in communique which said a
French column already had ad-
vanced more than Is miles in the
direction of Hue from the naval
base of Tourane-situated about
so miles southeast of the besieged
town, capital of AMMAN Province
Elements of the French Foreign
Legion and the 23d regiment OF
colonial infantry were reported
among the troops in the relief col
umn.
Dispatches from Hanoi reported
brisk fighting between French and
Wet Nam forces in the Nga Tu
So district over the week end. A
skirmish also was reported at the
village of Cay Che, near Haiphong
when Wet 'Namese attacked a
French outpost.

Taft Still Wants Reduction.
Senator Taft has told reporters
that latter second look at the
Presidents budget, I still feel we
can reduce it by 81, ,0OO, ,000, 900 to $4,-
000, ,000,000
But Senator Georgia, Democratic
tax manager of the Senate, said "it
will be difficult to reduce the budget
by more than $2,500,0G0, 900.
Il do not believe we should at
this time plan to cut taxes Sena-
tor George added. THE important
thing is to balance the budget and
make a payment on the Nations
debt"
Senator Taft, who is supporting
the idea of a 20 per cent cut in per-
sonal income taxes, said he believed
Democratic arguments that the re-
duction would mean a $3,350,000, 900
loss in revenue "are falacious." He
said tax cuts actually might stimu-
late business to such an extent that
revenue losses would be much lower
than that.
He also said it is possible that the
Presidents budget message under
estimated the revenues for the fiscal
year beginning July /. The Presi-
dent told Congress that revenues
are expected to be sufficient to bal
ance the budget of $500, ,000, 900
and have $200,000.000 left over for
payment on the national debt.
Sees Larger Reductions.
Senator Byrd, a member of the
Senate Finance Committee and a
veteran pleader for economy, said
his studies indicate the budget
might be carried even below the
S32. 900 900, 900 he regards as a maxi
mum
While Senator Taft and some
other COP leaders have SHE'D away
from any slash in the $11 200, 900 900
fixed in the White House budget for
military expenditures, Senator Byrd
said he believes savings can be made
there by more efficient adrninistra-
ton, without impairing national de-
fense
He estimated 100000 of the
2,400,0 900 Government employees could
be cut off the payrolls without
limpairing efficiency"
But Senator Byrd said he doesn't
want to see any tax reductions until
the budget figure comes tumbling
down. !
