BERLIN-(P)-A new set of up
pers costs a German 1.O00 marks
today as against the pre-war price
of 100 to $50 marks ($40 to $50 at
the $40 per mark rate).
The reason is that materials
must be obtained on the black mar
ket, mainly in the British zone, the
Berlin press reported. Gypsum, for
example, which used to cost
marks a hundredweight. now is
worth $50 marks. instruments also
must be purchased by dentists on
the black market

lin dentists. whose numbers have

New Political Alignments

American public opinion has been
branching off in all directions
within the last two years-and
especially within the last six
months. The shift of the voters
from the Democratic to the Republi-
can Party last November appears
to have been the beginning of a new
era that brought showdown be-
tween the White House and Con-
greSS. That sO-called showdown
was emphasized by an agreement
OF the President and Congress to
serve the interests of the Nation
first-and political parties second.
The first number on the program
was the easing out of Senator Bill
DO. That strategy came from Demo-
Gratis under the leadership of pow
erful Senator Barkley.
Time after time the President and
his advisors have had the backing
or Republican and Democratic
forces in Congress in handling Nat
lonal interests in nOn-partiSan
manner. That new alignment was
responsible for the crushing de-
feat of John l.. Lewis and the mine
workers.
or course most of the credit for
that big show belongs to the
Federal COurts-after all the
Courts decided in favor of the new
polices of the Government.
Looking over the affairs in Wash
ington and viewing things from a
strictly nOn-partisan pOSition-the
situation has changed so materially
in these last few months that forth
coming political events for 194S
Will show revolutionary changes
In American politics. The sweep
may be in many directions. as the
political sands continue to drift

There was no public dissatisfac-

to him was personal so far as SEN

sides that. attempts to prove Lilien-
that's unfitness, or disloyalty, were
not convincing. When you get right
down to the bottom of the whole
matter only real opposition to him
was based on the fact that he was
a Roosevelt New Dealer. But how
could one man be tossed in the
scrap on charge like that? There
are lots of good New Dealers-even
though their numbers have steadily
declined

Old Law Holds

Los Angeles, Calf. = Reaching
back some 1000 years to old Ro-
man law, Judge Leo Freund found
it still holds good in California in
1947. when he ruled that an en-
gagement ring is not the woman's
property until marriage. He or
dered Miss Betty Sinclair, 40, to
return diamond ring given to her
by her former fiance, Russell o..
Priebe, 46, unless she chooses to
pay him $1,000 instead. Priebe
sued to recover the ring and a
$400 gold brooch and $3.50 in
cash, but the Judge ruled that
Miss Sinclair may keep the cash
end brooch.
