NEW YORK - (ANP) - This
column has probably entertained
Is well as informed some 20 mil
Hon readers since its inception in
1928.
This being the first year of the
new-half-century, many 1851 fans
dip deep into the enforceable flu
ture like this first letter writer:
"Dear AL Moses:
Do you think Ray Robinson
will fight Joey Maxim for the ITS
pound title after he completes his
coming February match against
LaMotta? Will that in time bring
on a Robinson-Ezzard Charles
non-title bout? Gus Adams, AK
en-, S. c. ..-.
(A) - One part of your ques-.
ton must be Strengthened out. All
fights that Ezzard Charles,
worlds heavyweight champion
engages in will be for the title,
so that would seem to eliminate
a non-title bout.
Yes, think George Gainsford
would gladly sign for a Maxim
bout.
I think Ray Robinson, scaling
ITO pounds, would do like Tom
my Loughran did when he can
Ce11ed IS pounds to Primo Ca
nera, barely losing a 15-round
decision. Robinson, fears no man
alive. in or out of the prize-ring.
From Topeka, Kans. Artie Ste
phenson asks:
Go out on the limb for me
please and wrap up this one for
20 club members including my
self; who will be Ralph Kiner's
most serious home run threat Sc
1ected from both leagues?
(A) - think it will be Walt

smashed 81 during 1850. His
power to left and left center,
makes him a natural in this re-
Spect if ever I saw one.

has not been a rise, but the re-

Attorney Young then recalled
that at last years celebration the
Declaration of independence was
read, which he thought is a good.
thing and should be done each
year. Some of the points made
were that historically, this island
contributed Alexander Hamilton;
economically, this island was di-
rectly affected by the Declaration
of independence.
He said it was significant that
the people here celebrate the en-
actment of the Organic Act and
call June %, Organic Act day. It
is also significant that that holi-
day is SO close in proximity and
time to independence Day. He
pointed out that the Act also con-
tanned the Bill of Rights which
guarantees against deprivation of
life, liberty or property without
due process of law; the right to be
secure against unreasonable
searches and seizures"
Other selections by the band
followed with remarks by Attor-
ney Moorhead.
Guests of honor for the day
were the Honorable Harry E.
Taylor, Administrator for Saint

No Music Sequence Lends Suspense 10 Film al Capitol

For one of the few times in recent motion picture history, an entire sequence reaches the screen without the support of music, only the pulse quickening sound of footsteps and paying hounds furnishing the ac- compartment to the action.
 These scenes take place in Gun Crazy" King Bros United Artists crime drama now playing at the Capitol Theatre, with Peggy Cum mins and John Dall starred.
 With one of the widest manhunts in film annals in progress, and Dall and Miss Cummins the hunted, the movie fan lives with them through the pounding terror of unseen sound, pressing in on them from all sides. The absence of music, usually employed to heighten ten- sion. in this instance is said to create an even greater aura of suspense for the watcher. It is the tech nique chosen by director Joseph H. Lewis for the climactic scenes of the picture.
 The cast supporting Miss Cum mins and Dall i:l Gun Crazy" in- cludes Berry Groeger, Morris Car novsky and Anabel Shaw.

Presidential HopefuIs
 Don't Know What They re Getting Into, Says Truman
By D. Harold Oliver

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16-- R - President Truman said today there are plenty people ambitious to be President, but they don't know what they are getting into.
 That was his latest comment on presidential possibilities for 1852 al most a year before the nominating conventions. He didn't name anyone.
 At the same time, he admonished reporters that they are working pol itics to the vanishing point when there are plenty of otter things more important to talk about.
 Cant Be Upset"
 The President said the Japanese peace treaty will be signed and he does not think the signing arrangements can be upset by anybody This was in reply to a question whether he believes Rus sia's decision to attend the San Francisco treaty ceremony next month would damage" such ar arrangements.
 Asked about reports that Gen. Douglas MacArthur would attend and speak at the treaty signing, he said he did not know but the de- posed Pacific commander would be welcome.
 On other subjects, the President said:
 The Philippines would be repre- sented at the Japanese treaty cere- mony and would sign both the treaty and mutual defense pact announc- ed today.
 He said the pact and other de- fense alliances in the Pacific will have the same effect in that area as the North Atlantic treaty has on this side of the world; at least that is the intention.
 He is still studying personally the question of whether football is accomplished at West Point.
 American women can aid in the present emergency by supporting the defense program with everything they have.
 Andrei Gromyko, Russian deputy foreign minister, would be welcome if he wants to see the President on his way to the Japanese treaty ceremony.

U. >, Philippines
 Will Sign Mutual Defense Treaty

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16 - R = The United States and the Philip pines announced agreement today on a mutual defense treaty pledging each nation to tact to meet the com mon dangers in event of an armed attack on the other.
 The pact will be signed early next month, presumably at the Japanese peace treaty conference opening Sept. 4 in San Francisco.
 The announcement, made simul- taneously here and at Manila. said that the defense agreement will en- body commitments which already exist between the United States and the Philippines. These result from agreements on American use of bases in the Islands and American aid in building up Philippine armed forces.
 The American Philippines treaty is one of four now projected for signing next month in connection with the establishment of Jap anese peace.
 The other three are: the proposed Japanese peace treaty which will restore Japan's independence and permit it's rearming; a mutual U.S.- Japanese security treaty to permit American armed forces to operate in and around Japan after the occu- patton ends; and an American-N New Zealand-Australian defense treaty.

MY WAY OR ELSE :

A story in the days news recalls
an occasion of boyhood days. There
was always a fellow on the baseball
team who declared, "If l can't play
first base l won't play"
That story in the news reminds me
of that kind of reasoning, only this
time it is more serious. A CLIO leader
has threatened to walk out On the
sterilization program unless Congress
enacts stronger controls law than
it is now considering.
I'm other words, patriotism means
nothing to them. Who makes the laws
means nothing to them. They threaten
to walk out on the country's defense
efforts unless Congress does things
to suit the Go leaders.
Do it my way or else 49,.
The CLIO would refuse to be a
party to the sterilization program I'M
less it went the way CIO leaders
thought it should go.
How come that the CIO or any
other group can threaten our govern
ment? We always have had the right
to question its actions and to argue
against the lack of wisdom in some
of its enactments But no group has
the right to threaten government with
the attitude of do this on we won't
obey" a soldier might just as well
say, IN 90 along with the draft
just as long as you send me where
want to go"
The CIO surely wouldn't be so bold
if it didn't feel that the administra-
ton silently agreed with such stand
