THE ATLANTIC PACT

The Government of the United States
has made it very plain to the whole World
that the new United Nations has been
strengthened by the Atlantic Charter.
Each member of the United Nations is
under solemn obligation to obtain inter-
national peace and security declared
President Truman. And most statesmen, at
the time of the signing of the Charter,
emphasized the fact that the Twelve Gov
ernments thereby rededicated themselves
TO the support of the United Nations.
All of the speakers made it perfectly
plain that Russia has reached the end of
It's rope.
You can make a Number Que guess
that there is not going to be any WARRIOR
the reason that Russia hasn't a chance IN
a million to win.
Ii should be noted also that while the
simple ceremony of signing the treaty was
going on in Washington that Soviet Rus
sia was making final squeal in her propa-
ganda that the pact was "openly agrees
sive' and aimed against her. At the same
time President Truman was telling the
whole World to note that the pact is "a
shield against aggression"
The United Nations General Assembly
has recOnvened in New York. 1t is to be
hoped that they will give Russia kick IN
the ribs when their spokesman utter theT
low-down abuse of the United States AZ

ONE OF THESE DAYS

Owners of automobiles in Florida,
considering the amount of the investments,
pay more taxes than any other unit in the
entire range of taxation i'm the state. And
yet, before this session of theslegislatilre is
over, more taxes must be paid by the man
or woman for the privilege of owning an
automobile in Florida.
At present, including the seven-cent
tax he pays on every gallon of gasoline he
buys, the automobile owner, assuming he
keeps the car from six to eight years, pays
more in taxes to Florida than the car cost
him.
The Associated Press, seemingly keeni
by aware of that condition, sent out a story
from Tallahassee on Thursday. the first
two paragraphs of which read:
"If you are a Florida auto driver and
owner, the state legislature is thinking a
lot about you thesefdays.
"Bills galore have already come up be-
things as auto inspections, new wrinkles
in motor vehicle license tags and changes
in accident responsibility laws"
Costs in inspections, in license tags.
with the new wrinkles" tackled to them
and 100 percent increase in drivers
licenses are only some of the things that
will dig deeper into the automobile owners
pOcketbook.
As most motorists may recall, cost of
drivers license started out at so cents.
then jumped to dollar and the new law
will increase it to ST. It won't be long be-
fore il will jump again, and it is no telling
how often that and other auto taxes will
jump, if owners of cars continue to sit
supinely by with folded arms.
II may be recalled that one of the
things that helped to nominate Dave
Sholtz for governor in 1882 was his pledge,
which he kept, to lower the cost of the
automobile license tag. 1t has gone up
twice since then and undoubtedly will go
up again, probably at this session of the
legislature. The time may come when it
will be far cheaper to hire an automobile
in Florida whenever one has occasion to
ride than to own AGAR.
Every biennial, a few months before
the Legislature is due to convene, taxpay-
ers' leagues of various sorts are organized
in Florida. One of these days somebody
will start a movement to organize auto
mobile owners to fight the unfair taxation
on their cars.

Chapter S


THE end of their first week as
! partners found Garrett and
Felicity parked in green mead
ow beside small brook. The
children were playing in the twi-
light. Garrett sat on the steps
with Felicity and totaled the
weeks proceeds.
.We1l, that's the sum total. :"
he told her at last, holding out
three rather grubby dollar bills
and some small change. THE vast
sum of three dollars and eighty
one cents apiece. Neither of Us
will ever get rich that way. my
girl"
.'Oh. but you haven't stopped to
think. She thrust the money into
the pocket of her soft white shirt
and rested the small pad on her
knee. Neither of us had to spend
anything for parking this past
week. That's seven nights free
parking. Since it cost fifty cents a
night for each of us, that amounts
toa dollar night, or seven dol
lars we've saved this week. Then
the gas and oil for both cars
remember? Between us we spent
eleven dollars and forty-two cents
for gas and oil. Then we fed our
selves out of the produce we trad
ed in for the books and maya
zines, and that would amount to
at least three dollars a day for
all of us. What do you mean we
won't get rich this Way?+
Garrett looked at her with
frank respect and a dawning ex-
scitement in his eyes. "Then it
tpaSf't such a crazy idea after all, !"
he said eagerly. I'VE are making
a little money-and our expenses.
What a swell little partner you
are. Flissp
"Oh. I'm nothing special" she
said hurriedly. Its just been that

and squeeze nickels for so long

me to be sharp trader"

Wholesale and retail prices have been
