Well sir, its summer again and
we at M. B. H. are either leaving
or looking forward to at least two
weeks of leisure, absence from hall
lights and bed side bells.
Now it really would be wonderful
if we all like Nurse Richardson
could go down to New Orleans and
lounge around in Ponchartrain
beach under umbrellas, of course,
and just while the time away.
Or maybe down Waveland at
summer camp where we could all
swim a while, then fish and then
crab. All of the above mentioned
would be nice but we are as | said,
looking forward to the absence.
That's all, just absence.

1t Earns Its Way

One of the reasons why the Federal Bureau
OF Investigation has no difficulty in obtaining
appropriations for its work may be found in
the bureaus report for the 1851 fiscal year The
report shows that the FBI recovered for the
Treasury millions of dollars more than It's cost
OF operation during that period.
The FBI appropriation for fiscal 1851 was
$40 million. incidentally, it was one of the few
Government agencies that received from Con-
gress all the money it requested. In return, the
bureaus Investigations ended in fines, savings
and other recoveries for the Government totaling
approximately $40 million In the civil field, the
FPI investigated claims under the Renegotiation
Act which resulted in adjustments in favor of
the Government totaling more than $57 million
The report also showed that the FBI had
record OF 975 per cent OF convictions in cases 1t
investigated. All of which explains why congress

hold that it is false Economy to slash the oper-

publication. Accordingly, its relatively sweet and
reasonable views must be taken with grain of
salt unless and until Pravda; Izvestia, the
Moscow radio and other organs of Soviet propa-
ganda start saying the same things in Russian
for Russian consumption. Nevertheless, the
mere fact that this new magazine has appeared
coupled with other signs that the Kremlin may
be seeking to ease international tensions lends
plausibility to the idea that the Stain dictator
ship may be veering toward policy change
Why? Perhaps because--as persistent reports
indicate-unrest is mounting behind the Iron

Atlantic alliance or lulling us into rearma-
ment showdown with phony new peace often

Needless to say. our world needs to be ex-
stremely wary about the whole business Still,
we ought not to discount 1t entirely After all,
there is at least the possibility that the Kremlin,
finding itself overextended, and faced with seri-
Gus internal strains, may want to pull in its
horns. In that case, given real, basic change

1t is regularly and commonly estimated
that animals Of this class will "cut out"
80 per cent OF the gross weight in sala-
BILE beef. SO that actually the purchaser

cost him $1.18437, or 52.os cents per

but he also had 1915 pounds Of by

At this point ask you where is the
spread between the net price I got per

condemned? That is one phase of the

have some further investigation. On this
