Make Life Beautiful ...
BY James Sullivan

How about the business you are
in, or the job you have? Is it
what you want? Do you find hap
pinesS in your work? There is a
reason we should ask ourSelf
this question.
First of all, if we aren't happy
in doing our work, it affects our
health, and ruins our happiness
when we are at home for we will
carry our dislikeS from our work
to our homes. Perhaps you are
tired out at night after a days
work. 1t could be the worry
caused by the displeasure in
doing this business of earning a
living.
There has been many ways dis
covered, by educators, by which
we can determine what we are
best fitted for. They are known
as aptitude tests. They determine
what you like and will help you
to be happy-while you are
earning a living. Most any teach
er can give information on how
to get these tests. There is more
to working than earning money.
We spent one-third of day
doing this. If we fail here, we
have missed part Of life and have
robbed others of happiness.
We never use all the abilities
we have. We have to have con-
fidence in ourself. Each individ-
ual is important, don't forget
that. We all feel useless at times
and say what's the use. But re-
member, there is a reason for
everything and nine times out of
ten, most of our troubles are
caused by ourselves. Check and
see if I'm not right. We hate to
admit it.
We can't expect to earn joy or
peace which makes happiness
when it is all within us. We just
have to learn the way to mani
fest it. Mind over matter is the
key for success with faith in God.

Miss Reynolds, our town librar-
ian, really put a smart-aleck mo-
torist in his place last week -
right in center of town, corner of
Main and Walnut.
Her car stalled, tying up traffic.
Most drivers just waited quietly
realizing she couldn't help it
but one fellow kept blaring away
on his horn.
So Miss Reynolds gets out of her
car, walks over and says sweetly,
'I'm afraid can't start my en-
gine. IL you'd like to try I'll stay
here and lean on that horn for
you." That stopped him!

This Week
in
Washington


In the midst of the foreign pol
icy debate and the furor over the
Macarthur testimony before the
senate armed services committee,
President Truman has tossed a
request for tax increases, tighter
controls and a stationary parity
on farm products into the con-
gressional hopper.
That the administration is
divided on the parity issue is
seen from the fact that Secretary
of Agriculture Charles F. Bran
nan had testified before the house
agricultural committee in de-
tense of the present parity pro-
gram. The Presidents parity pro-
gram followed that of his chief
mobilization officer, Charles E.
Wilson, who wants to freeze
parity as of January Is for a
year at a time, instead of letting
the parity figure fluctuate as it
now does according to the cost
of living for the farmer.
In his message asking for a
tWo-year extension of the defense
production act which expires
June 30 this year, the President
wants tighter credit controls and
higher taxes to drain off excess
purchasing power.
The world situation could ex-
plode at any time and we must
make every day count" the
President said. He held out as
an alternative to the freezing of
the parity program other devices
including limited food subsidies
to prevent necessary farm price
increase from being reflected in
rises in the cost of living"
Amazingly enough, Secretary
Brannan who has heretofore not
been in the good graces of the
Farm Bureau, the National
Grange or other farm organiza-
tionS has won their highest COM
mendations for his defense of the
parity program, and in the case
he made for the farmers before
the congressional committee.
AS to subsidies, this plan long
has been opposed by farm organ
izationS, but a report of the de-
fense production administration
just this week indicates that in
dustrial firms, some 600 of them,
have been granted tax amortiza-
tionS on certificates on plant and
facilities expansions totalling
$4,100,000,000 which will amount
to little more than a subsidy from
the government for a large part
of that huge Sum.lncluded in the
Presidents message were these
recommendations other than the
parity freeze:
Cd Authorize the government
to build and operate defense
plants where necessary TO pro-
duce essential materials and
equipment; ~ permit use of
differential subsidies to get es-
sential production from high
cost sources without increasing
price ceilings; (3) provide con-
trolls over credit on existing
housing and regulations for
speculative trading on COM
modify exchanges; (4) strengthen
the laws to permit a tough and
aggressive enforcement of price
controls; 90 enforce effective
control over both residential and
commercial rents. His anti-infla-
ton program included, beside a
tax increase, increased personal

Kidnapper of Girl
 Sought in Pennsylvania

WASHINGTON, (P), Search for a man accused of Kidnapping and raping a 17-year-old Washington girl shifted to Warrington, Bucks County, Pa, today.
 Police reported the fugitive, who still had the girl with him, broke into the home of George Brewer in Warrington and spent last night there.
 Then he and the girl, Carolyn Barker, left in Brewers 1850 green Oldsmobile sedan. Y
 The Federal Bureau of Investi- gation has identified the man as Warren Lee Irwin, already sought on charges of murder and kid mapping in previous episodes.
 He is accused of killing Mrs. Adeline Shagena, near Oxford, Mich, June 8, and Kidnapping a woman June 19 at Detroit.
 The police report said Irwin pawned an engagement ring stolen wrom the Washington girl here yesterday. It said he also pawned a wrist watch taken from the girls fiance, who had just presented her with the engagement ring.
 Police said Carolyn Barker's fiance told them yesterday a gun man forced him to drive with the girl to nearby Falls Church, Va, Thursday evening. There, he told the police he lay helplessly bound while his intended bride was raped nearby.
 The fiance, a 19-year-old filling station attendant named Law renee Gilbert, later picked Irwin's picture out of FBI files as the kidnapper.

STOP-GAP LEGISLATION

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman has until midnight to de eide whether he will accept temporary, watered-down price control extension or abandon for at least a month his emergency powers over the nations econ- omy.
 Congress left him no other choice when it passed yesterday stop-gap bill which would ex- tend the Defense Production Act for the month of July and ban price rollbacks and additional price ceilings during that period. Although MT. Truman was ex- pected to sign the measure to prevent complete collapse of the controls program, it represents a sharp setback for his admins tration.
 He had fought hard-and is expected to continue fighting = for a two-year extension of the law plus increased powers he deems essential to halt infla- tion and help the defense effort:
 The month-long extension Con- gress voted apparently bans roll backs of the price of shoes, cloth ing, textiles and a long list of manufactured goods the Office of Price Administration (OPS had ordered to go into effect Monday.
 Price Stabilizer Michael V. Di Sale had estimated these roll backs alone would clip about $2,- 700, 100000 year off costs to the consuming public.
 Five billion dollars in price cuts will be lost to consumers over a years time, DiSalle estimated, if the n0-rollback decision stands.

AlaSka salmon Industry Refuses Agreement With Striking Resident Workers DILLINGHAM;, Alaska, (Ro = Alaska Salmon Industry leaders were reported Saturday to have flatly refused to sign an al Aree- ment with striking Bristol Bay resident cannery workers unless they would agree to end their walkout.
 At the same time, new issue was injected into the complicated Bristol Bay salmon fishing tie-upl Both the cannery workers and a second striking union accused the AFL machinists of ignoring picket lines.

BELLY ADDRESS ON INITIATION

The address on imitation by Thomas M. Pely president of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce. to the King County Republican Club on June has resulted in flood of favorable comment, and many requests for copies of the speech have been received.
 Excerpts from Pelly's speech follow:
 n 1929 we spent less than four billion dollars to operate all functions of the federal government.
 In this fiscal year we will probably spend eighteen twenty times much. A large increase is due to the Korean war; but hidden in it is bigger increase for items.
 'If every lifensurance policyholder in the United States cashed in all of his life insurance, the total would amount to 45 billion That would not be enough to government year now, excluding the cost of increased national defense
 If every home owner in the entire country dis posed of his home the total would amount to esti- mated 35 billion That would not have run our gov ernment for months last year.
 If every farmer sold his farm, and all the equip ment on it, including the livestock, it wouldn't last six months And if the working capital of all industry converted into cash, that 40 billion would still be only drop in the bucket"
 Initiation means disaster on. two counts" Pelly said Tt demoralzes family securty-the background of all that decent hold dear It results in dictator ship And the American people don't want either of those.
 Our Seattle Chamber of Commerce and other similar organizations throughout the country realize this danger That is why have been urging govern ment economy -curtailment of government spending Balanced budgets essential to prevent further f tiOn.
