were burned to death in a fire
which destroyed their homes two
miles from Monroe while the

State police reported that the
mother was hanging clothes out to

parently from a wood stove in the
kitchen. The mother said the
flames were so hot she was unable
to rescue the children. Damage
was estimated at $4,000.
The other fire which left three
families and resulted in damage
estimated at $4,000 destroyed a
merchandise store.

The state Civil service contend

Last month, the association filed

Democracy Spoiled PEOPLE
We Of democracy and Of the
United States are a spoiled
people. A spoiled child is bad
enough, but a spoiled people is
worse. In the former cases there
is great hope, but inthe latter there
is but little. The world cures the
spoiled child, but there is little or
no help-for a spoiled people and
herein lies the tragedy of civil
cation with it's effectness and ex-
excessive indulgences.
Spoiled nations come to grief
even as spoiled children; and must
learn the hard way the experience
es of survival. During the last 10
wears more than 100000 persons
have persisted upon the highways
Of the nation in automobile
accidents, and during the next 10
years a million more will be slain
in the same manner. But we are
spoiled and will not learn our
lesson Of safety and sobriety. We
are rushing headlong to go no
where in particular and to do
nothing in particular after we get
there, We are a nation of speed
maniacs stimulated by a drink
mania. Speed-mania plus drink
mania means a staggering death
toll upon the highways of the
nation. But we are spoiled and
must rush on even if we are rush
ing to destruction.
W. are a nation of prosperous
people living as it were in a land
$ flowing with milk and honey. If
ever there was a land that more
closely resembled Canaan than Jul
United States of America, we fail
to find it in recorded history,
ancient, medieval or modern. We
are perhaps the best clothed, best
fed and the best materially situat-
ed people of history. Our pros
perity knows no bounds. The fact
that there are millions destitute
and hard-pressed only exaggerat-
es the fact that tens of millions
are living on the provibal fat OF
the land.
In other words we here in the
United States are having a grand
time Of thething called life, and
this fact is largely explained by
our good fortune in the last two
world wars, in neither of which
were our losses comparable to
those of our European allies. Our
loss of life was negligible when
compared with the other battling
nations. Although we bore a ire
mendous financial burden, ou1
wheels of industry were never
troubled, and producing is com
paratively easy If we can keep
the machinery geared to its full.

The text of this article hinges

Between fhe Lines

that complaint about high taxes
is fast becoming a moral conta-
gion. We want a great nation of
material culture but we somehow
want it without the taxes such
culture entails. We want the pro-
lection of the law but we do not
want to pay for such protection.
We want facilitated communica-
ton but we faint when the bill is
produced. We want fine highways
upon which to speed our high
powered vehicles, but when the
bill for same comes in we demur.
We want to enjoy the highest
standard of living the world knows
or has ever known, but we do
not want to pay taxes.
Our system makes paupers as
we'll as princes; the princes must
a taxes on their possessions but
the pauper must also be cared
for! and just how this can be
done without taxes, seems to elude
the rill-throated throngs who
complain about high taxes. We
are co-sponsers of world wars
with their devastation and the de-
~struction of millions and millions
of our lowered youth; yet when
we are presented with war bills
we sigh as in despair. How the
manned and shell-shocked survi-
ors of the battlefield r to be
cared for without high taxes is
a problem nobody wants to face.
What about the protection OF
the widows and children of the
slain and what about their support
and succor- A casual inspection OF
! the veterans hospitals throughout
| the nation and world would shock
| the average man into the shame
THAT is ours if we do not keeI
| faith with the men who went
through a hundred hells in order
that we might enjoy without stint
our land of milk and honey. Yet
when the bill is presented, there
is weeping and crashing of teeth
Our staggering drink bill is met
without a whimper, u enormous
smoke bill we take in stride, oul
astronomical riding bill we &C
cept as a matter of course ant
our pleasure bill becomes a must
but when the bill for taxes comes
in whereby our great material ad
vantages are maintained, we turn
cry-baby and lament like job
neighbors. In our grasping for tn
advantages this nation unde'
democracy offers, we are heroes
in our being responsible for thes'
advantages through heavy take
we are cry babies. Democracy

SNEEZER:
10000 Times

Michael Hippisley had sneezed
$50, 900 times and was still sneezing.
London doctors sought frantically
to bring some relief to the 14-year
old schoolboy who had sneezed
once every three seconds for nine
days.
THE only time the boy hadn't
sneezed in the nine days was when
he was knocked out by drugs or
sleeping.
i've had kerosene up my nose.
drops down my ears and hundreds
of tablets" Michael told reporters.
''Then they ~cauterized me. !
couldn't feel anything more, but !
kept on sneezing."
When news of Michael's plight
got about, some so callers offered
sympathy and advice. One sug-
gested hypnotism. Another said
sneeze in a paper sack. Unfortu-
nately, all remedies had been tried.
SCIENCE, making great strides
with allergy controls and remedies
seemed stymied on this case.
The Hippisley family doctor said
that's what he thought it was-the
constant "aa-chooing" was due to
Michael's abnormal sensitivity to
pollen dust"

MINERAL PRODUCTION
GAINED IS MILLION

Butte, May 28.-Montana's to-
tai mineral production for 1913
showed a gain of more than $751;
000,0 over 1947. The grand
totals are $12O,361 900 for 1913
compared with $106,955,0 900 for
1947. Metals and metallic ores
were valued at 'S59,476,0 900 COM
pared with S53,044,000 for each
of those years respectively.
Mineral fuels-coal, oil, and
gas-showed an increase from
S44 ,380,00 to 1885, 90 in spite
of a falling off in coal of over
$1h million.
Miscellaneous non-metals, ex-
GLIDING fuels but including a few
minor metallic products, held just
about even at approximately So
100000 for each of the two years.
The figures are compiled from
various sources by U. NJ. Sab
inen of the state bureau of mines
and geology staff. They are de
rived from the U. S. bureau of
mines, the state board of equal
ization, and the state oil con-
servation board. The 1913 fig
ures are in some cases only close
approximations, being estimated
from the figures for the first
nine months of the year. The
1947 figures are practically final.

Clay Speaks Up

If Gen. Lucius D. Clay, retiring
United States military governor in
Germany, had his way, Americas
ex-foes would be permitted back
into the company of democratic
nations as soon as possible.
BACK in Washington where he
vas feted and decorated by Presi-
dent Truman. Clay warned that I'M
less Germany is restored to the
community of western nations. an
alliance with Russia by our former
enemies is inevitable.
Speaking to the house Of repre-
sentatives, the general declared
that the German people, in spite Of
their recent history Of aggressive
war and extreme cruelty" now
had shown their preference for a
government standing for the "digni-
ty Of man as an individual"
In the spirit of the residents Of
Berlin who survived through the
airlift, Clay declared, there is a
spark for German freedom that
may grow with the years." He
told the senate how the people Of
western Germany had adopted
through their parliamentary coun-
Gil a constitution which guarantees
free elections and is devoted to
reestablishing in Germany the dig
nifty of man."
WITHOUT referring to the Soviets
by name, he charged, neverthe-
less, that the Russians have two
detectives that were irreconcilable
with the efforts made by the United
States, England and France to
create a four-power government in
Germany based on international CO.
operation.
He defined these detectives of
what he termed 1.-The fourth power"
as intent to exact the maximum in
PREPARATIONS from Germany and to
set up a government that could be
controlled or exploited by a police

BARLEY:
Ne Guards

I'm a big boy now. And besides,
who would want to harm a young
man like me anyway"
Thus did Kentucky's Alben w.
Barley. Vice-President of the
United States, dismiss the idea of
personal guards.
BARLEY, who will be 72 in
November, goes where he wants,
when he wants and fatty refuses
protection of any sort.
He told newsmen that President
Truman had tried to get me to
accept a few secret service men,"
but was turned down.
Secretary of the Treasury Snyder
and top Oman j. Edgar Hoover
also offered to provide bodyguards.
But Barley wanted his freedom.
81 like it better that way" he
said.
Barley claims he's just a "com-
mon man, nothing fancy" In fact,
he gets a kick out of people trying
to figure out how to address him.
81 STILL call myself senator"
he says, "a habit after % years in
congress-, but the kids call me
weep l like that"
He could also be called Mr..
President, since that's how he's re-
ferred to in the senate over which
he now presides.

ACCIDENTS:
Three Reasons


Plain stupidity. bad manners. and
liquor are the top three causes Of
automobile accidents. accounting
for three-fourths of all fatalities, or
over 1000 deaths per year, accord
ing to a case analysis by North
western National Life Insurance
company.
BY far the top killers are the
stupid" group Of driver ofenses-
excessive speed, ignoring traffic
signs or traffic officers. passing on
hills or curves, and other miscel-
laneous 'dimwit" violations; the
study finds that n OF more Of
these ~offenses is involved in 40 per
cent Of all fatal accidents. and is
the principal cause of 80 per cent.
FOOLISH ACTIONS by adult
pedestrians-crossing against traf-
fic signals. crossing intersections
~diagonally, crossing between inter-
sections, coming from behind
parked cars, and walking in the
roadway in the same direction as
traffic cause another II per cent
of fatalities, based On experience
records of 1916. 1947 and 1948, the
study finds. Thus "A per cent of our
annual traffic death toll results
from failures by drivers or pedes-
trians to use common sense.
Bad manners, such as road hog
ging-driving over the center line
or actually on the wrong side of the
road, and "barging through when
the other fellow has the right-of-
way cause another Is per cent of
traffic fatalities, the records reveal.
TRAFFIC DEATHS due to alco-
hol are estimated by the insurance
statisticians at a minimum of Is
per cent-12 per cent due to drink
ing by drivers and 3 per cent due
to drinking by pedestrians. This is
the most difficult group of cases
to measure accurately, the study
points out, because: Many drinking
drivers try to conceal such facts in
case Of an accident, and an I'M
known number succeed; second, a
considerable proportion Of other
violations such as reckless driving.
which are directly blamed for GER
tain accidents, would not be COM
mitted if the driver we're fully
sober and his judgement clear.
Summary: OF Jul annual traffic
toll of $4,000 to $4,000 deaths, A
per cent result from acts Of folly

Old Tradition

The old tradition was running
true to form: you can't beat a
Roosevelt. Young Franklin D.
Roosevelt, Jr., most like his father
in looks, charm and smile. won the
New York congressional seat left
vacant by the death Of Sol Bloom.
And he won it with the national ad-
ministration and Tammany allied
against him.
FDR worshippers were jubilant.
Those who had fought the champ"
throughout his years in the White
House ~professed to see in the cleo
ton result the creation of a new
Rooseveltian political dynasty.
Already the cry of the exultant
victors was ION to Albany" New
York capital which Franklin D.
Roosevelt, four-time President of
the United States, used as a spring
board to the White House.
Denied the Democratic nomina-
ton, young Roosevelt ran on the
Liberal and Four Freedoms par
ties tickets in a contest which kept
Manhattan's west side in an uproar
for months. A surprise to many
Americans, who did not know such
procedure was permissible, Roose-
velt does not reside in the district
he will represent in congress. 1t
seems that all the while there has
been no bar in the law to prevent
a candidate from living in one dis
trict and representing another.
DESPITE his victory as a stand
ard bearer for two other parties,
Roosevelt declared he is still a 100
per cent Democrat.
Campaigning, he visited thou
sands of voters, turned on the old
Roosevelt charm, mingled with the
masses in their homes, attended
house parties as honor guest, made
street corner speeches.
One defeated candidate sounded a
familiar note heard so frequently
during other Rooseveltian CAM
