Those girls really are beauties

Since the beauty contest Is NOT
scheduled until the day after the

motorists who are planning trips
on the 9Th. to drive carefully.
There is no sense In a guy going

has the prospect Of seeing q bevy

To tell the truth, there isn't

bile wreck. Cor crippled, smashed

as speeding is concerned, keeping

all of these things would mean

SAINT and IL reckless drivers could
witness such q scene, 1t might
make them more careful with
their own driving in the future.
Trits Subjects
| There are three subjects that
are beginning to choke the people
of Key West up TO the giIls = the
dog track, summer heat, and
shortage Of water. Only on the
matter of the dog track can the
public do something. We haven't
yet learned how 10 control the
weather or our public utilities.
Even the cities Of New York,
Los Angeles. FL Paso, have been
plagued with water supply wor-
ries at one time or another. IL Is
short sightedness that causes these
worries but once they are upon Us.
there isn't much we can do but
make necessary corrections for tho
future and grin and bear present
difficulties.
Church Activities
Have you noticed the large num-
Der Of church-sponsored activities
being conducted this summer
We have q crowd Of hard-work-
ling church pastors. together with
their layman leaders in Key West.
And II Is an encoura ging fact TO
know that q big portion Of their
time is devoted not only 10 the
youth, but 10 the entire congrega-
ton.
Young people aren't the only
ones who occasionally need to
brush up against religion. As .
matter Of fact, Id venture 10 say
that their parents usually need Il
just as badly as they do.

gambling had only to look at the
list and go after the quarry.
In addition to paying for the
stamp, gamblers under the law
also had to pay in taxes 10 per
cent of their gross take.
The Senate Crime Committee,
headed by Senator Kefauver,
Democrat, Of Tennessee. surmised
that gambling might be a $40
|billion-a-year industry.
Ten per cent Of that would be
I$2 billion. The Congressman who
prepared the law decided about
20 per cent Of. the gamblers would
pay their taxes. This would mean
Ia revenue of $4oO million a year.
Nothing like that has happened.
The Government collected in the
first II months a total of $780,
438 from gamblers, Mr.. Lohn said.
OF this, $1.082,25 was from sale
|of gambling stamps. The rest,
$7.108.179. was from the 10 per
cent excise tax. Collections for
October, the 18th month. are not
yet added UP. but If they amount
to the previous monthly average
lthey will total around $650, 900.

Stevenson's Tooth
Capped in Rush
Before N Speech
BY the Assoeiated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. Gov
Stevenson made a Brooklyn po.
litical rally by the skin of his
teeth last night.
After intervening in the Illinois
prison riot, he rushed here to pick
up his campaign schedule. His
flight was delayed at Philadelphia
by adverse weather.
Aboard his plane the Demo
cratic nominee broke a front
toot hwhile dining. It was the
upper left first bicuspid. leaving
a prominent hole-just as he was
70 60 on television.
Police called a department den
tist. DR.. Bernard Nif1ot, who
rushed to the Brooklyn Academy
of Music.
The Governor arrived here two
minutes before he was to go on
the air.
Offstage the dentist hastily
fashioned an emergency cap for
the injured tooth, and told his
patient:
Don't worry, you're in good
hands. I'm q Democrat, too."
Later the dentist replaced the
emergency cap with a temporary
one which he said would hold
until the candidate returned to
his dentist in Illinois.

Lewis and Operators
Sian Hard Coal Pact

John L. Lewis United Mine
Workers and the anthracite op-
orators signed a new contract
today providing an average wage
increase of $1.90 per day for 68,-
900 hard coal miners.
The new anthracite pact is sub
ject to approval by the Federal
Wage Sterilization Board. Ed
ward G. Fox, spokesman for the
operators, said the agreement was
being submitted Immediately to
the WSB.
The wage board two weeks age
refused to approve a wage in
crease of similar size for the 375,-
600 soft coal miners. The boaro
ruled that under stabilizatior
rules the miners were entitled tt
no more than a $3.50 per day
raise.
The circumstances of work
however, are different in the
anthracite fields, located largely
in eastern Pennsylvania. Nearly
one-third of the hard coal miner:
are not paid by the hour, but work
under a tonnage contract with the
operators. The other two-third!
are paid by the hour or day as art
the soft coal miners.
Industry spokesmen said that
because of the difference in worl
arrangements, the WSB might ap'
prove the hard coal agreement
despite the fact that they turnet
down the wage increase negotiated
for the soft coal miners.

Why hasn't the law worked?
For one reason, the bureau

extra money for additional per.

only 100 men to tap the gambling

Professors Loss
OF Italian Tests
Costs Hin, $6,470
BY the Assoeiofsd Press

ROME, Nov. 1.-The loss of a
set Of school examination papers
that caused postponement of pu-
pills tests throughout Italy cost
Prof. Attillio Levi $6.410.
A court fined the professor that
sum yesterday in the disappear.
ance in July. 1948, of the master
copy Of composition examinations
to be given all students in State
schools. Prof. Levi maintained the
documents were stolen while he
was riding on a streetcar.
The court held the loss and
preparation of new exams cost the
Italian state $35, 900 and ordered
Levi to pay partial compensation
of damages which resulted from
his negligence"
Evening star., 1952-11-01
BY the Assoeioted Press

The law that was to force most
gamblers to pay heavy taxes or put
them out of business-one year old
today-has done neither in it's first
year.
Frank Lohn, chief of the Inter-
nal Revenue Bureaus intelligence
division, said it has brought in
only a fraction of the expected
revenue, and has not materially
reduced gambling.
The Government collected prob
ably less than 50 million in taxes,
compared with congressional es-
Inmates the take might be $400
million.
And, Mr.. Lohn said, instead Of
being forced out of business, gam
blers "have just gone under
ground" However, he added the
law is a deterrent to the gambling
fraternity"
Immediately after it went into
effect, he said, there was a large
scale suspension Of activity along
