Addressing North Carolina
Sorosis Thursday afternoon in the
clubhouse, Alton Lennon spoke
to the group on rededication
week, which is now taking place
in connection with the visit of
the Freedom Train here Decem-
ber 10.
He told of the indifference Of
the people in Europe in the
years past, condition of list
lessness which was responsible
for the war years that came
leaving the present critical sit
uation there.
Seeing this Indifference in the
obligations of the people to their
heritage, the American Heritage
Foundation conceived the idea
of rededication of our principles,
a program to rekindle the love
and loyalty for our own peo-
pie. This program should not
be for just a year but a continu-
Gus rededication. Among our
many advantages we have the
highest per capita wealth, the
right to speak freely, and to
worship as we please. We should
think, live, be Americans, he
said. We should all be good
citizens, assuming the respon-
Isibilities of state, local and ra-
tional affairs. Our forefathers
dreamed of a great nation where
one could carve out his own
destiny. 1t is our sacred duty
and obligation to work for a free
America and free Americans,
he concluded.
Miss Polly Jackson spoke in
behalf of the Junior Sorosis OF
the importance of the sale OF
Christmas seals.

Brazilian Admira|s In Play
Completely At Ease In Parts

Of the admirals, seem to have
gotten a great bang out of re-
hearsing for the play, but not
nearly so much enjoyment as
the on-lookers.
The scene where the admirals
dance the conga, chattering Por-
tuguese, is one of the highlights
Of the play. Where the admirals
learned to speak Portuguese so
|fluently is backstage secret.
One of the adlnirals is a real
hero. Jimmy Corbett saved his
skipper and several crew mates
from drowning in the New York
harbor during the war.
Haskell Rhett, Jr., helped to
stage a show while serving with
the navy and Travelled with the
same show all over the Ha-
waiian Islands.

Mr.. Stassen
Could Have
Said NO
BY RUTH MILLETT

At a press conference
for women's publications in
New York, Harold Stassen, Re
publican aspirant for President
skirted the issue when he was
asked directly whether or not he
liked the longer hemlines.
He needn't have hedged on
that one. A direct ''no" wouldn't
have offended anybody but the
dress designers and manufac-
lures, who may be powerful in
influencing styles, but hardly
numerous enough to have to be
appeased by a man looking to-
ward the White House.
A mo- would have pleased
the average man, who has two
good reasons for disappearing
of longer shirts. They cover up
the shapely legs, for which the
American girl is famous the
world over, and they uncover
his pocketbook.
A ''no" would have gone over
all right with the women who,
from economic necessity or just
plain good sense, are wearing
out their short skirted clothes.
And the Observation-Disclosures, who
have gone all out for the long
skirt, would have taken a mo-
in their stride. After all, if they
worried their pretty heads over
what any man thinks about long
er skirts, they wouldn't be wear
ing them, anyhow.
There are at least three ques-
tions any political candidate can
safely come out against this
year-the longer skirt, the hous-
ing situation, and high prices.

Mir. Truman's Duty
Seattle Post t-Intelligencer)

Seattle Post t-Intelligencer1
 All of President Trumans fiscal policies are based upon the asserted premise that period of high indus trial activities lies ahead in which We will have large national income"
 The administration anticipating enormous Federal revenues contemplates continuation of immense Federal expenditures in the belief that the economy can bear the load.
 It is the administrations palpable purpose to ex- tract all it can from the national income" and to spend accordingly. This facile but futile philosophy both explains and is made evident by the administration attitude in matters.
 The first is the 37-billion dollar executive budget which the President submitted to Congres.
 It is virtually wartime budget-in time of peace and recongersion which should be time Of retrench- ment in government.
 The second matter is the antagonsm of admin sraton supporters any reasonable tax reductions and expicy tc the moderate tax-reducon bill draft ed in Congress
 The President is under heavy political pressure veto the bill
 This attitude is really another expression of the Keynes Hansen theory of national finance-calling for deficit financing and currency imitation in stress and for rapacious taxation in prosperity. In one phase public debt is incurred for govern mental squarderng. In the alternative phase, huge treasury surpluses are deliberately sought for the same purpose.
 In neither phase the ordinary rules of business prudence applied in government; and both phases are injurious 10 business itself. One of the most relable experts in Federal finance is MT Roswell Magil professor at law at Columbia University and formerly a treasury official. In the March issue of The Tax Review, MT. Magill said:
 Tt behooves us to adopt governmental policies, and particularly fiscal policies, which will give our economy incentives and encouragement and a fair chance to show what it can do
 The tax system should be so drawn as to encourage and develop the incentives of American business men to work and to produce.
 The activities of individuals, and particularly the activities of business management, are the driving force in economy.
 '"ihe first item in tax program, then, should be to begin the removal of the tax brakes on their in centives.
 "AI taxes operate brake upon business activity In other words, exorbitant taxation destructvely diminishes the national income from which all taxes are derived which the New Deal relies for the support of it's schemes.
