Manga Parbat

Manga Parbat is an ice-sheathed
giant that rises from the hot valley
floor Of the Indus river, in north
west India, to height of 26,660
feet, or more than five miles above
sea level, notes the National Geo.
graphic society. Although topped
by unconquered Everest and half
dozen lesser cloud-breakers of the
Himalayan chain, this mountain, in
it's isolated grandeur, long has been
q tantalizing challenge to the high
est yet fraternity. Twenty-nine
men have lost their lives to the
mountain during 50-odd years Of
attempts to scale it's browning peak.

Salvation Mountain

Salvation mountain in the Cham
bon, Haute Loire, in the south of
France, has been so designated Off

Hospital Fare in 1873

Hospital patients did not fare"
any too well before 1873, the year
that marked the origin Of profess
sional nursing in the U. S. Accord
Ing to the American Nurses asso-
citation, the diets of the bedridden
rs years ago consisted mainly of
tea, whey and gruel-which the
nurses themselves had to make.
Today's hospital meals are planned
by dietitians and prepared by skilled
chefs.

In Defense of Hog

The idea that hogs are filthy in
their habits is untrue, says the World
Book Encyclopedia. Hogs will not
stuff themselves with food the way
other animals-and HUMMELSHINE,
times will. Hogs wriggle in the
mud because it helps keep them cool
and removes extra oil on their skins.

Cancer Strikes Dogs

Cancer is as much a plague of
dogdom as it is of man, but not as
much is heard about it because
many affected animals are never
brought to the attention of veteri-
narians. Cancer stricken dogs
sometimes show only mild symp-
toms of illness and may die without
arousing suspicion of that disease.

Control of Stable Flies

Stable flies resemble house flies
somewhat in appearance. These
pests rest on the barns, in trees
around where the cattle are feed
ing and to some extent on the ami
NAL, but the latter is usually just

fly, the buildings as we'll as the ami
mails must be treated with DOT. A
2.5 per cent to 5 per cent solution
should be used on the buildings.
Applications should be made every
three months.

MINDS STIR UP EMOTIONS

.4 Not so long ago. a prominent speaker
said; "The first lesson that we must take
to heart is that people are swayed by their
emotions, not their intellects." $50
This statement is accepted as the
truth by astute politicians and by other in
dividuals who consciously set out to per-
suade the people of this country to follow
a given course.
Upon analysis, the statement implies
that smart individuals, using their intel
lects can stir up popular emotions to gain
their desired ends. 1t should be noted that
the people, who act according to emotion
al stimuli, are but tools which are handled
by clever brains. The individual whose
conduct or decision is fashioned as re-
sponse is like fish that follows the bait
without seeing the hook.
Let no one imagine that people, sway
ed by emotions, rule this country. This is
mistake. The nation is ruled by the clever
few who have the sense to create situations
which result in emotional reactions. Back
of the popular emotion, however express
ed, is a master-mind that takes advantage
of the nature of human beings to secure
definite, specific result.
The appeal to the emotions, rather
than to the intellect, is characteristic of
most political campaigns This is true
whether the election embraces a small
area or the entire nation. The result of
the balloting, unfortunately. often reflects
the emotional state of the citizens of the
area rather than the intelligent judgment
of the voters. This is to be regretted, but
the remedy Is not to be found in de-
nunciation of the tactics of smart leaders.
In fact, the observation will continue
10 be true until the individual voters be-
come thoroughly conscious of emotional
appeals and intelligently guard against
precipitous decisions along obviously in
spired lines. This presupposes, on the part
of the voter, an intelligence equal to that
of the master-mind behind the emotional
strategy.
This may be too much to expect at the
present stage of civilization i'm this coun-
try but, sooner or later, if democracy is to
survive and representative government
flourish. the millions of ballots in the ma
tion must be cast on the basis of reason
ed judgment rather than as a result of
emotional flare-ups.

But back of it all are the years of the

ans are imposing upon us. The American
Government and the American Nation are
getting tired of all this Russian abuse, and
We may get good deal nearer to show
down than most people may think.
There are indications that the Russi-

ALL THE PEOPLE

1t is clear to the residents of Key
West as well as elsewhere in Florida that
fight is looming over the tax. situation
when the special session of the legislature
is convened.
While proponents are propaganda
ing about the need of an additional $50
million a year for the next two years, the
so-called economy bloc Is insisting that a
special session Is not needed and that the
only necessary thing to do to keep the state
on sound financial basis Is for the heads
of the various departments to cut down ex-
penses.
It should be borne in mind that the
financial troubles In the state began to
brew long before Fuller Warren became
governor. Budget Director Homer G. Gra-
ham points out, in statement issued to
the press, that the 1947 legislature in
creased appropriations for public schools
from SIS million annually to $42 million
without providing additional revenue to
meet the increase Of $24 million d year.
What happened to the schools also
oSSuAiSA III VtitGk isiStuiNCS Ol tuCEEdSlHk
appropriations without taxation to take
care of increases. That not only happened
In 1947 but also at the session of the legisla-
ture this year.
The condition prevailing in Tallahas-
see is similar to that confronting an agent
who is told to buy building or a business
for $4,000 and IS given only. $4,000 to
make the purchase. OF course the agent
could put up mortgage for the addition
al $1,000, but the state can not enter into
borrowing transactions to get needed rev.
enue. In only one way can the revenue be
obtained, and that is through additional
taxation, assuming that the funds receiv-
ed under the present tax structure is in
sufficient.
What will the legislature do at the
special session? That is question that
concerns all the people of Florida.
