vious question harmonious relationship will prob

An interesting fact is that couples can usually make
these adjustments quickly if they don't marry
until both past the age of 20. Teen-age couples
usually find the problems of adjustment much more

Q. Are there any psychological differences be-
tween blondes and brunettcs which affect their

Not Easy Way Out.
This was not the easy way out.
Senator Taft has much at stake
politically. He still wants to be
President, despite two defeats for
his party's nomination. AS his
party's undisputed leader In Con-
eress he has a valid claim that
is constantly enhanced by his
achievements there.
To be a candidate again for
the Republican nomination he
must win reelection as a Senator
next year in Ohio. 1t admittedly
is going to be q hard battle. It
will be made no easier by the

already has revived the label OF

Billy Goat Tactic.
If all a postal clerk ever had to
do was to try to put Sears Roe

he would deserve a halo as well
as raise in pay. We used to
await the arrival of those mon

heavy hearts. The average sized

the accommodation of a wren,

But they had to be put in the

But In Mr.. Dulles, the Senator
from Ohio, fresh from his tri-
umphs In labor legislation, met
an opponent who towers above
most men in the field then being
debated. Senator Dulles not cnly
has q vast corporate law practice

changed the situation almost
completely, however. In the eyes
of their families and friends they
were heroes, in spite Of their de-
feat, which they blamed prin-
cipally on the Emperor and high
ranking generals.
The returning heroes" started
telling the people about the
marvels and wonders of the Com
munist regime. following faith
fully the line which had been in
stilled into them by their Russian
captors. Aided by the inevitable
economic crisis. and the equally
inevitable dislike of any people
for foreign occupation. the words
of the returning soldiers did not
fall on deaf ears.
The membership Of the Com
munist Party - official and un-
official - increased substantially
until it became so vociferous and
troublesome that today 1t has be-
come one of Gen. MacArthur's
chief problems.
Open Defiance Recently.
In the last three months there
has been open defiance Of the
Allied occupation authorities and
a still greater defiance Of the gov
ernment itself. which is described
in the various parts Of the empire
as a tool Of American capitalism
and stooge Of Gen. Macarthur.
He, in turn, Is styled by the Com
munists as the "uncrowned en-
peror Of Japan" and a reaction
ary dictator" whose only aim Is
to plunge Japan into another war.
The problem Of policing effec-
lively a country Of nearly 10000
900 with a combat force which
does not exceed 10000 men is not
an easy one, particularly when
the Japanese police force itself
would become questionable If the
Communists continue to make the
same progress they have In the
last six months.
The Japanese population is dis
armed. But there Is q growing
suspicion among the military
authorities in Japan that Russia
has managed to send light mill
tary equipment machine guns,
rifles and pistols-to the various
parts of the country by submarine.
The Kuriles. which were handed
over the Russia at the Yalta Con-
ference, are said to be the prin-
cipal base from which arms are
sent to Japanese Communists.

ing they can do about it. These
men are japanese and have a
right to return to their homes,
although it is known that with
each new batch Of returning pris-
oners the Communist Party in
Japan adds great strength.
It took the Russians three full
years to start freeing their pris-
oners of war. The reason for
the delay was that only those men
were to be sent back to their
homes who were certified by the
political commissars in the prison
camps as thoroughly trustworthy
and reliable members of the Com
munist Party. Their Job is to
start disturbances which will make
the position of the occupation
armies untenable.
Nonaggressive at First.
Soon after Japan surrendered
and a new constitution. patterned
after those in Western countries,
was adopted, the japanese Com
munist Party came into existence.
1t was a nonaggressive and
mainly social-ideological faction,
counting only a very small mem
bership.
AS the economic crisis grew and
political freedom increased the
number Of Communists increased,
too. But they were not belligerent
except locally-and were not
considered important enough to
worry the government and the
Allied military authorities.

1t was interesting that 1t was

While conceding that the State

Truman to take the

Three Employees Living i'm

Locations

Operations have been suspended
at the Buckeye Pipe Line Company's
booster station located near Mt.
Cory, as an aftermath to laying a
22-inch line between Lima and Cyg-
net this summer.
Although the plant, which en-
ployed IA, will not be dismantled,
it will remain closed and only main
tenance men will remain on duty.
Most of the operating crew of IA
have been transferred to Cygnet,
with others assigned to new posi-
tions in Lima, including two Bluffton
residents.
With the new 22-inch line in use
and carrying a greater volume of
oil than the smaller lines which the
booster station served, pumping is
no longer needed to speed the flow
of oil, company officials announced.
Oil will continue to move through
the Mt. Cory lines, but it will be
pumped direct from Lima to Cygnet
since slower movement of the fluid
will not interfere with company OPP
erations.
Three Buckeye employees living in
Bluffton affected by closing of the
pumping station are Robert Geary
Vine street; Harold Dicus, Spring
street, and Forest Harmon, Lawr

Geary and Dicus have been as.
signed to positions with the com

In preliminary planning, work had

With $4,000 available for re-
surfacing, the repair program was
nearly doubled, and completion of
the work will give the town its best

missioner said.
In the expanded project, resurfac-

Jefferson street, three blocks of Cher
ry street, and one block on each HUI
Der and Jackson street, in addition to
work done on II blocks of Mound,

Major re-surfacing projects includ-
