just right to her so she decided to
try it out on the cat. If the cat
ate it, and nothing happened the
cat loved it and begged for more
so she went ahead with the sup
per as planned. After the guests
had njoyed their liverwust and
were ready for a evening Of gam

ly managed to whisper to his
Frau in Sachish, "Ich wicss net
yah TX sohl dere dat sohn, avevr

Before her husband could say
anything further Frau Binder
rushed to the phone and called
for the Doctor. 1t wasn't long be-
fore the doctor departed again
with his stomach pump leaving
a room Of sick people that she
weakly turned to her husband
and asked. Mike, where's the

"Oh. out in the fish pond dear,
where he fell after that big truck

self-sufficiency of such nations as
we have been aiding under the
E.CA.
One of the interesting witnesses
this week was Boris Shishkin, head
of the Labor Division of E.C.A.
in Paris, who came back to this
country to report before the Com
mittee. He gave US splendid,
candid outlook on labor conditions
abroad, particularly so with re-
spect to what the representatives
of American organized labor, now
in Europe, are doing to check the
influence and spread Of Commu-
nism in Western European coun-
tries to the detriment of world
peace and security.
In my report to the House on
October 13 regarding the work
which engaged me in Europe last
summer, l spoke at lentgh about
the activities of such men as Mr..
Shishkin, Mr.. Sam Berger, Labor
Attache of the Embassy in Lon
don, Mr.. Irving Brown of the AT

CIO, who comes from my own 22nd
District of Ohio.

L while there still remains much to
be done, the conditions of Euro

sons have been improved tremend-
ously in the last two and a half

recently from the International
Refugee Organization indicates
that little Israel has received 116,-

DOT NOW

"Wartime excise taxes, still in
effect four and half years after
the war ended, are depressing
certain lines of business" says
the Houston Press.
The original chief purpose Of
these taxes was to- discourage
travel and business as usual, thus
releasing transportation facili'
ties. manpower and materials for
war work. They continue to serve
that purpose when all lines OF
business need every possible en-
couragement to produce and sell,
thus providing more jobs and
more government revenue from
individual and corporate income
taxes.
The Executive Secretary OF
the Illinois Federation of Retail
Associations said, "If these taxes
are not eliminated at once, they
are here to stay. They were i'm.
posed as a wartime measure, at
which time promises we're repeat
edly made that they would be
removed after the war. Anything
less than outright repeal of them
amounts to betrayal"
Time is a very important factor

Retailers find

in this problem. Retailers find
themselves faced with increasing
buyer resistance to the affected
items, because people are putting
off the purchases in the hope that
congress will repeal the taxes. In
