''COllle Hon
Henry!'

=
He's "Mr. Roberts, now
VoU have to say one thing for
Il Henry Fonda = he, doesn't
mind hard work.
Fonda has been away from
Hollywood and on Broadway in
the fabulously successful play,
'Mr. Roberts," for more than a
year. In Hollywood he could get
by handsomely on two pictures a
year, with plenty of time out for
holidays. More money, too. On
Broadway he works six nights a
week, plus matinees on Wednes-
days and Saturdays. He hasn't
missed single performance II not
even when he was hospitalized with
a serious throat infection. He liter
ally commuted from hospital bed
to stage door while they fed him
penicillin between acts.
He Showed Them
lHAT's Fonda. During the war
he gave up his Hollywood career
to enlist in the Navy. He was 81
years old at the time and had a
wife and three children - really
more exemption than he needed.
He wound up the war as a lieuten-
ant. senior grade, with a citation
and Bronze Star.
He feels about "Mr. Roberts"
the way he felt about the war.
Few people believed, when he first
stepped out on the deck of the
AK 6Ol - the rusty cargo ship in
the play - that he had signed up
for the duration. They didn't
know their man.
Recently. in his quiet way.
Fonda took up painting. Josh
Logan. the stage director of 'Mr.
Roberts," watched him paint a
still life of a basket of fruit, and
raved about it for weeks.
The Best in His tory
WHEN Fonda finished the still
life, he wasn't happy with it. Just
to make it harder for himself, he
dropped some water on the plums
and then painted in the drops.
Then he added a burnt match and
painted that in. It's probably the
most perfect representation of
burnt match in the history of
painting - though I don't sup
pose many artists 60 in for burnt
matches"
Jimmy Stewart, a longtime
friend, is not surprised at Fonda's
ability as painter: He probably
read a book onthe subject.

Our State Department

The Hoover Commissions reOr-
ganizatiOn report on foreign af-
fairs shows that the United States
State Department in terms of ap-
preparations is twelve times as big
as it was ten years ago and has
five times as many people working
for them.
1t is generally agreed in Wash
ingtOn that the Department has not
increased it's efficiency to any eX-
tent.
The Washington Evening Star
comments editOrially, as follows:
This is no way to run State De-
partment in this day and age. Dur
ing the coming fiscal year we will
spend somewhere in the neighbOr-
hood of $19,QOO,OOO,OOO on interna-
tional affairs and our military pro-
gram. The best hope of any sub
stantial reduction in this vast out
lay of funds lies in the prospect OF
an improved international climate
In this effort the State Department
will play a vital role, and any re-
organization which increases its
efficiency and effectiveness, while
not offering much in the way OF
immediate savings. promises rich
dividends for the future"
Milford chronicle., 1949-03-04
Two States Point The Way

Congratulations to the Michigan
legislature for being the first this
year to repeal the State ban on
yellow margarine. Congratulations
also to the State legislature of Ten
nessee for lifting it's 10 cents per
pound tax imposed on yellow mar
garine. These legislatures have ac-
coded to consumer wishes, thereby
setting a good example for other
legislative bodies which are con-
sidering action on discriminatory
margarine taxation.
It is expected that Federal Con-
gress will act promptly once the
House of Representatives Commit
tee on Agriculture reports ont a
margarine bill, And according to
Chairman Harold d. Cooley of the
committee. hearings will be cut as
short as possible since. in Mr..
COOley's words. "In view of the ex-
tensive hearings on this subject
which were held by the Agriculture
Committee last year. . I'm sure
that every member of the commit
tee is familiar with just about ey-
erything that can be said on both
sides of the nutritiOnal issues in
vOlved."
Never doubt that most butter in
terests will fight to the finish to
retain restrictive margarine taxes,
but we think they would be wise
to follow in the steps of the Kings
dale Diaries of New York. who have
advocated complete repeal of mar
garine taxes, and make a graceful
exit while there is time.

u Cannot Tell A Lie0

Clifford Berfryman is the Great
est and Brainest cartOOnist in Am
erica His drawings have appeared
in the Washington Evening Star for
long years. On Washington Birth
day the Bergman cartoon featured
the lack of progress of the present
Congress. President Truman is
shown standing in front of the
White House with his axe in hand.
He approaches a tree that is label
ed "81st" which he is preparing
to slash down as he did the "8Oth"
Congress. The President evident
ly is in doubt, and in the cartoon
lists language he is reported as
saying, 81 cannot tell a lie-I may
have to do it again if you don't
get busy" Congress ought to I'M
derstand this prophecy that it is a
failure.

Washington Letter
By J. E. JONES
Relations"

Relations"
We reproduce their paragraph
because that same statement has
appeared in this newspaper syndi-
cate letter many times since the
Institute Of Life Insurance was
established.
Maybe the life insurance COM
panies will wake up and fight for
their lives. They ought to know
that the issues raised by the Ma
tiOnal Administration are just
more wild pipe dreams.
Our Government must mind it's
own business instead of backing
such vast expansion schemes as
social security.
Nevertheless, the President rec
Ommends that the Government
should initiate the vast expansion
of the Social Security System, i'm
Guiding "hOme relief" for all needy
persons, thus blanketing 10000, 900
more persons under Old Age In
surance. Mr.. Truman recommends
raising the tax on pay checks and
payTOlls. The President has bit
off a bigger chunk than the Con-
gress of the United States will be
able to digest.
Milford chronicle., 1949-03-04
A Bunch Of Bright Ideas


The President has asked legis-
latiOn from Congress for many
changes in the regular way of run
ming Government business. He asks
for legislation to continue export
controls; continue priority and al
location in railroad transportation;
authorize mandatory as we'll as
voluntary ALLEGATIONS of materials
ina short supply; and standby"
prices and wage controls.
On top of all this he reports an
other dream, viz: Authorization by
the Government of loans to indus
try for expansion of facilities to
increase production in materials in
short supply, plus authority of the
Government to build and operate
such facilities.
Evidently the drift of these rec
concentrations has stirred two ma
jOr conflicting points, one of which
is whether the Government should
cOnfsCate private business and
run the factories and production
plants. That's worthy of an Iron
curtain"
This trend towards socialism re-
calls the famous observation of for
mer President Grover Cleveland
while making & speech in a Mil
waukee brewery. Part way through
his remarks he had apparently
run of words and asked his audi
ence: where am l at?" The ans
wer at the time was that he was
joining the crowd in furnishing
free beer.
How could President Truman
explain where he is at?"

Government Spending

Some of these know-it-all gen.
tlemen insist that the only way for
private business to be bOlstered
this year is through the spending
of billions in Government cash.
There seems to be a general idea
that wherever there is a shortage
of money that the thing to do is to
go to Washington and get some
thing out Of the taxpayers public
treasury.
Construction firms expect to get
tho biggest boost Of all from the
