to be of much use to your fellow
men unless you are we'll equipped
with personality, or with money.
Those who desire to help their
fellow men and seek success for
this purpose should have enough
philosophy to hold them steady
against the assaults of those who
want to take them down. There
is something in human nature that
resents superiority, either of abil-
ity or of fame, and one must be
prepared TO bear patiently with
this.
Optimism may be a mere point Of
view, but it is valuable for all of
us, even though we have no foun-

that IAN optimist sees light where

OBSERVATIONS
BY Mack C. Nance

A father flogS and chastenS his
boy for knocking down and eat
ing a few green apples from neigh
Dor Jones apple tree. He (father)
calmly and seemingly with due
sincerity, recites the golden rule:
"Thou Shalt Not Steal". On the
same night, the same father, comes
home, to the astonishment of the
boy, with neighbor Jones hog on
his back. The boy is naturally con-
fused and doubts the seriousness
of fathers admonition.
The old medieval, paganistic, out
mided and non-factual aphorism
that the king, state and their
satellite, can do no harm, is re-
diculous and must be hurriedly
wiped from the minds of all hu-
manity. Hasen't it been proven and
openly admitted that during world
II, that while the mass (you and
me) were doled out a few pints
'of gas mensual (monthly) that
the satellites, wallowing in the
favor of kings, potentates and rul-
ing barons were driving up to fill
ling stations and demanding fill
her up?
Society, throughout the world,

The United States Army is re-
sponsible overseas for governing
civilian populations the total of
which equals the population of the
United States. For every man.,
woman and child in America, there
is a German, a Japanese, an Aus
trian or a Korean whose welfare
depends on the Army.
In Japan, General of the Army
Douglas Macarthur governs nearly
80,000,0O0 former enemies. In
Germany, nearly 20,000,000 people
in the American zone, governed by
General Lucius D. Clay, and more
than 2O,000,000 in the British zone
look to American food to keep them
from starvation.
There also are 20,000,000 people
in South Korea who depend on
American Military Government for
part of their sustenance and for
the independence they have been
promised. Several million Aus
trians still under military govern
ment look forward to the day when
they will again have control of
their own country.
Less than 100000 American, mill
arv and civilian, are stationed in

says a person who talks to himself
is mentally unbalanced. I Woud
think that would depend on what
they say to themselves. What do
you think? Here is an odd
success story: A porter for a small
Southern radio station who was
college graduate, with jobs being
hard. to find, took the best thing
he could get. One day the stations
disc jockey didn't show up so the
manager decided to tease the alb
sent employee by having the
Colored porter to tumble" through
an hour at the disc. This will get
lot of laughs said the studio
executive. The porter went to the
mike and scored an immediate hit.
Today he is rated as one of the
nations |"top platters." His name
is Norfley Whited, of Station

far; no visible efforts are activated
nor contemplated, to run down, in
carcerate or punish a national or
international thievery. They apply
their nefariOuS trade with seeming
impunity. It is crime for the in
dlVidual or group of individual to
steal while the same act by state
or group of states becomes a
sacred virtue. The individual thief
will snatch your wallet, jewelry
etc., etc., while the national and
international thieves will snatch
your home, land, natural resources;
your life and freedom. Here then,
is the basic cause of global fears,
mistruSt and national and inter-
national conspiracy to obtain those
things which are not rightfully
ours.
There is vile and ungodly
scheme, in the making; whose aims
are; to confiScate, supervise and
dominate all natural resources of
this globe, by a few selected ma
tionals. 1t is highly up to the mass
(you and me) whose sons and
daughters, will suffer, sweat, bleed,
squeal and die in agony, on the
battle fields on foreign lands; to
assure ourselves, that our home
land may not become a part nor
parcel of this vile and waring

THE PENALTY
OF NOTORIETY
Rambling Thoughts BY The
Philosopher

The penalty of notoriety is that
most people like to throw stones
at a prominent object.
The writer was once delivering a
lecture, and was shot at by a
drunken man in the audience. He
wanted ito shoot something, and
the speaker being the most promi-
nent object in view was his chosen
target. Luckily, he missed.
The love OF. being prominent, or
famous is in all of us. We want to
rise little above the genera.
mass. 1t is pleasant to be pointed
ait and noted as prominent per-
son.
But there is a trait in human
nature that loves to knock those
that are prominent.
There are thousands of people
who would enjoy seeing Henry
Ford taken down a peg, simply

unworthy of notice. All success is
a sort of venture. No matter what
it is that brings a person into
prominence - whether ability, or
riches - it makes him a target for
venomous shafts.
1t is rare, therefore, to find a
man who has achieved success who
at the same time, is kindly and free
from bitterness.
There are some such, and they
deserve a great deal of credit.
There are just enough poor los
ers in this world to make the lot
of the successful not happy one.
At the same time, it is impossible
