Bonnie Jackson

This is the real Gossip now. P
R said divorces are more numer-
Gus than Fords. Marriage used to
be a love match, now it is a
shooting match. Every day I read
of husbands being shot, at this
rate they won't last long. A little
advice to the men. never 60 a.
round with a married woman un-
less you can 60 two rounds with
her husband. The love bird flew
across to the east end of town
and found those hip cats on the
ball.

Along the Potomac
to Washington
BY J. Glenn Beall

The House Of Representatives will
be given its annual Easter recess at
the close of business on April 18th
and will reconvene ON Monday, April
25th. The Senate, which is far be
hind the House in meeting its lcgis-
lative schedule because of the time
consumed in the flibuster on the
Presidents Civil Right program, will
remain in session in an effort to catch
up with its work
While President Truman is eX-
pected to send the North Atlantic De-
Tense Pact treaty to the Senate at
any time now for ratification, it is
doubtful that body will take up, or
debate, the treaty ratification issue
for some weeks to come. While the
Senate is expected to ratify the
treaty many Senators seem DESTROYS
of making it clear to the world
Americas entry into the Defense
Pact does not obligate this nation to
furnish any particular amount of
arms or finances to the government Of
western Europe.
Last week the House passed the
Agriculture Department appropri-
alton bill, totaling little over 70l
million dollars-25 million less than
requested by President Truman's
Bureau of the Budget. Approx
mately half of the appropriation, or
$50 million dollars, was made directly
available for the use of the Rural
liberalization Administration, with
authority given to the Secretary Of
the Department Of Agriculture to use
another $50 million dollars for REA
if necessary; 262 million dollars were
set aside for the AAA program for
the coming fiscal year, and IS million
dollars for the School Lunch program,
while the Soil Conservation Service
was granted so million dollars.
Last Wednesday Washington wit
messed its last Army Day parade
when some ten thousand soldiers,
numerous units of mobile artillery,
and a score of bands swung across
Capitol Plaza and down Constitution
Avenue past the Presidential review
ing stand as some $50 thousand
people lined the parade route. I'M
mediately following the Army Day
parade, the new Secretary of Ma
tional Defense, Louis Johnson, an
nounced that, in order to bring about
a more thorough unifcation of our
Armed Services, in the future separ-
ate days" for each branch would no
