DEAR MISS DIX: A few
months ago, while my daughter
was living away from home but
in the same city. an announce
|ment appeared in an out-of-towr
paper of the marriage Of a girl
with the same name. A neighbo1
of ours started the rumor that II
was our daughter. She has spread
this story, with some additions OF
her own, all over town. There is
absolutely no truth in anything
she says, but naturally people are
beginning to wonder. Even my
good name is being used in some
of these tales. How can they be
stopped? M. F.
Answer: If you have witnesses
to testify that your neighbor is
spreading libelous tales, and proof
that will refute them. you have
a good case to take to law. II
you do not know a lawyer. or feel
you can't afford the services of
one, the Legal Aid Society in your
city will render assistance.
Humanity's lowest level is
reached by people who have. no

The way in which the Demo-
cratic Party has met the chal-
lenges of the past has proved its
worth to meet the challenges of
the future. Secretary of Labor
Maurice j. Tobin assured the
Woman,s National Democratic
Club yesterday.
Pointing with pride to the Ad-
miniStration's fight against inter-
national communism, the speaker
said that one of the paramount
challenges of today is to see that
America doesn't return to isola-
tionism. OF equal Importance. he
added, is the need to maintain
q sound internal economy which
will avoid the dangers of run
away imitation.
The cabinet officer spoke at a
club luncheon on the topic. "Chal-
lenge to Democrats Today" He
was introduced by Mrs. Oscar L..
Chapman, wife of the Secretary
of the Interior, who explained that
the speaker had been invited to
"help us take stock as Demo-
Gratis"
On the international level, Mr..
Tobin paid high tribute to Presi-
dent Truman for his leadership
= in the fight against Communism
through such methods as the Mar
shall Plan, aid to Greece and
Turkey, the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization and the decision to
resist aggression in Korea. At the
same time, he lauded the minor
ity group on the Republican side
In both houses of Congress who
have been Americans before they
have been Republicans" on the
foreign policy issues.
Taking note of the charge that
the administration abandoned
China" Mr.. Tobin declared that
equipment worth hundreds of mil
lions of dollars had been given tol
the Nationalists. "It is easy to
look back and say what should
have been done" he said. But
how many in Congress would have |
advocated then that aggression
be stopped at the cost of American
liveS?"
Mr.. Tobin stressed the value Of
economic aid to foreign countries
and said that France and Italy,
in particular. were in an lex
tremely difficult position" after
the war but, thanks to economic
aid, have a strong determination
to stand against communism. AS
for the Truman doctrine on
Greece, he said it was comparable
in significance to the Monroe Doc
trine.
mo country in the history of
civilization, he maintained. has
ever approached its responsibilities
with a more moral point of view
and the Democrats can take pride
that it was under a Democratic
administration"
On the economic front. Mr.. Tobin
declared that the Democrats
have built the strongest private
enterprise system this country
has ever known" To maintain
sound internal economy will call
for some sacrifices and higher
taxes, he pointed out. But only a
