Editorial
o ROAMING DOGS -ANUIsANCE
DOCS AGAIN have become a public nuisance. = might
young and old, large and small seem to emerge from everv-
where. They bark and howl hiss and whine, and make every
Imaginable kind Of sound in addition to their fighting and
caVortlng up and down the length of the streets.
MOST PEOPLE ARE great lovers Of dogs, and the great
majority of people on this island have a dog, either as a pet
or as a watchdog, and they have a perfect right to have what
ever pet they want, but when these pets become a nuisance
that is something different. Our contention is that it is perfect
~ possible to keep dogs, and keep them in such a wav that
they will not become a nuisance. 1t should be relatively easy
to curb dogs, to keep them confined, and off the streets.
ACCORDING TO local law the Police may either take
up or shoot dogs on the loose. Some time ago we took a stand
against shooting them for we thought that it would better
serve the purpose by taking in the dogs which would save
the firing Of shots in the night, or by day and at the same time
give the owners a chance to claim their pets, to saw nothing
OF a little added revenue. That law carried out more fully to-
day would help solve the problem. Yet, if owners do not CO.
operate it leaves the Police no alternative. Local residents as
well as visitors have been heard to complain about the noise
and general disturbance of dogs on the loose, and certainly
we want to make every possible condition conductive to
the tourist trade.
THERE IS one thing which the legislature can do
now about this situation which we have suggested before. 1t
can increase further the license fee on dogs, particularly fe-
males. This would serve the double purpose of helping the
revenues, and at the same time encourage owners to take
better care of their pets.
THIS IS a problem that can be solved without requir-
ing much time and work. 1t is relatively simple. Owners CO.
operating with the rest Of the community and the Police can
solve the problem. Once again we plead for cooperation.

Blind Sheriff and Texas Rangers Seek Gamblers Slayer

fI E ' l. '
 DALLAS, Aug. g, R A blind sheriff and the famed Texas Ran gers joined hands today in seek ing the killer of gambler Herbert (the Cat Noble. Al N 4 GTheir clues were few: A blue pickup truck seen speeding away from the spot where Noble was blasted to death yesterday. a bat tery, and a few strands of wire.
 But that's more than we usu- ally have to go on," said Ranger Captain Bob Crowder.
 Denton Country Sheriff w. O. Hodges, blinded by a charge of buckshot a few years ago, said, "We know a party who has a pickup truck like the one which was used" .. I Hodges and Crowder agreed three Fort Worth police characters are sought for questioning.
 Noble had cheated death eleven times before yesterdays 18th and successful attempt on his life. The silver-haired, self7styled re- fired gambler was killed as he stonned his ear- tt t rural mail hox near his fortress-like ranch.
 The killer-or killers-hid in a scrub oak thicket some 75 yards away. then touched off devilish- ly-hidden land mine.
 The blast underneath Noble's automobile left it crumbled wreckage and scattered bits of the 42-year-old gamblers body over a wide area. @a
 It was at least the fourth at tempt to kill Noble by explosion. The first killed his wife by ms take. That was late in l949 and was followed by period Of gang land violence in Dallas.
 Mrs. Noble was killed when she stepped on the starter of the auto mobile her husband normally drove. A bomb exploded.

We Are Tax Collectors
Archbold (Ohio) Buckeye

Not long ago., gasoline stations amusement places and liquor stores were about the only tax collecting agencies operated by business men. 9 .s - Now every business place. every industry and about every farm operator has become an unpaid tax collector for state and national government.
 With the promise of even higher taxes and greater bureaucracy, with more and more people working for the government the future holds little promise of relief from excessive and almost pro- hibtive costs of maintaining any business enterprise
 The accident toll in this country is big enough to warrant serious attention and so if you to save your own life, be careful.

They began opera ting about 1884 and continued to i941-two months } before Pearl Harbor. -r--'-'- l Two Germans were involved, two Japs educated in the United States, two Americans, and one German British neWspaperman. One of the Americans was Agnes Smedley (now deceased) who lived 20 years in the Orient.
 The other American was Tycho Lilliestrom, U. s. vice consul at Harbin, Manchuria. Born in Fin land, Lilliestrom served 21 years in the consular service, and died in l943. It was in his home in Harbin that the Communist spies assembled powerfulSA radio set later smuggled into Japan.
 ] What Russia Learned
 So successful was the. Russian spy. ring. in penetrating innermost Japanese government circles that some of the war lords most vital secrets were transmitted by short wave radio to Moscow. The spies learned among other things that:
 l. The Jap war lords would def initely' attack the United, States. This information went to Moscow two months before Pearl Harbor. 2. Japan would not join an al liance against Russia. This was learned in 1887, and. caused Stalin shortly thereafter, to sign the Nazi-Russian alliance, which in turn left Hitler free to wage war against France and England. Un- doubtedly this piese of informa- tion alone swayed the tides of history.
 8. Japan would not attack Rus sia. This information, sent to Moscow in 1941, caused Stalln to pull all his reserves out of Siberia and concentrate them in front Of Moscow. Without this intelligence information, Moscow might have fallen.
 Head of the Communist spy ring was Richard Sorge. Born in Baku, a soldier in the German army, he carefully prepared for his work by taking a special espionage course in Moscow and then becoming Far Eastern correspondent for several German newspapers.
 In Shanghai he met Agnes Smedley, who put him in touch with Japanese Communists. In Tokyo, posing always as a German DtWoflldIl, llt ICSdillC PiSoS HSN~SA%S to the German Embassy and close friend of the German Ambassador. All the secrets of the Embassy passed through his hands.
 Los Angeles Japs Involved
 Sorge's co-conspirators were a Los Angeles Japanese woman named Tomo Kitabayani; a Jap anese artist from the United States named Totika Miyago German businessman and radio operator named Max Klausen; and most important of all, Hozuni Ozaki, a Jap Communist who be- came an editor of the Tokyo Asa hi and close adviser to the Prime Minister of Japan.

world armed to the teeth. we nev- ertheless need to have some con- cept of it's cost both in dollars and wealth. The latter is partic- ularly important, for while the ex- penditures in dollars affect the
 immediate purchasing power of the people, the expenditure in wealth involves the reduction of the reservoir of natural resources upon which the economic and po- litical power of this nation stands
 Thus far, no precise data is available on many subjects. For instance, the United States is put ting into the pot at least $5,000- 000.000 a year in foreign military aid. What is Great Britain put ting into that pot? What is France putting into it, Their fig ures are confused because the American contributions to each country have to be traced 9and deducted from any estimate of what their contributions, are in terms of both dollars and wealth.
 When, prior to the World War T, Great Britain was the princi pal nation on this earth and a vast empire, her access to natural resources and to manpower was enormous. Today, the British Elm pire has ceased to exist; each so- called dominion is an independ- ent state which acts independents ly on important issues. The Brit ish Foreign office speaks only for itself; it cannot speak for Can ada, the Union of South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, India or Pakistan.
 Senator Taft shows how con- fusion exists in high places when inc recounts:
 ". it was in March, 1850 that General Bradley, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, testified they were satisfied that a budget of SIS billion for fiscal 1851 and a million ;and a, half anen ln uniform was about sufficient for the in terest of the country. sHH He said . We doennt have any way of know nld whether this figure should be SIS biHion,d $14 billion or Sl5 bll7 lion. We think we must not spend this country into economic col lapse and spoil our industriai1po- tential He testified; The joiifFf chiefs of staff never went atong with this great big figure of Szpy hillion.' He testified that if ne came and recommended 2 $3o lhll- lion budget for defense.s hea wouid ibe doinga a disserviee and rnat ffnaybe yous should get "a neY chairman of the sjoint schiefsEs of staff, Now they want $50 blplIBon or, according to some reports, sloo billion.
 General Bradley can, ol uioo' say that he did not know in Marcn 1850 that the Korean war would eccur I do not believe that he would say that that changed eV- ervthing. for actually it changed nothing since Yalta which occur red in February, 1945.
 When General Douglas MacAr- thur accused the Administration of having no policy, his reference dealt directly with the problem VIC are here discussing. For if Rus sia is our enemy now, Stalin laid down the program of that enmity at Yalta and again at Potsdam m 1945.
 Maybe, to give them the bene- fiji of the doubt, the Administra- ton has been hoping that stain would drop dead or that some other act of God might save them.
 The greatest cost in dollars ana wealth comes from this lack of a sharply defined policy. It means that often we pour both down a hottomless pit. In Korea, it even made American lives cheaply ex- Dendable.

 Senator Robert A. Taft stated the case of these expenditures as follows S ,sSs-
 pointed out that even a country the size of the United States had definite economic lim- itations, and that those limita- tions are more severe when ap- piled to a 10-year mobilization program than to a brief war. criticized the government because no one has analysed for the peo- pie the ultimate cost of what is now proposed by dozen different departments.
