Worlds Most Famous Beach

Eddie Cantor has always shown
that he has the heart to give love.
Eddie has commanded fabulous
fees as a professional entertainer
but he has never failed to offer
his services when the only COM
pensation has been the conscious
ness of having lent helping
hand.
In turning his birthday to an
occasion for helping in the Israel
bond sales, Eddie Cantor is being
true to his traditional self. The
cause of Zion has always evoked
his warm support-back even in
the earlier days when the men of
prominence were not generally
conscious in this support.
The cause of the state of Israel
has made him even more enthu-
siastic. The state had hardly been
established before Eddie ran over
to see Weizmann and Ben-Gurion
and rejoice in the joy of all the
people.
"When the Lord returned the
captivity of Israeli" says Scrip
ture, "then our mouths were full
of laughter and our tongues of
song" What better description of
Eddie Cantor is there than this?
The comedians mouth is full of
laughter and his tongue of song"
In this instance we may say the
Scriptural verse has a double ap-
plication.
The Israel Bond dinner birth
day party to Eddie Cantor, it is
to be hoped, will not only sell a
great quantity of Israel bonds
but serve to kindle in our hearts
something of the glow of Eddie
Cantor's devotion.

course, primarily as one of the
great entertainers of the age. He
has brought laughter to the
hearts millions Of people at a
time when the world has sadly
needed the soothing balms of his
JOY. Tears and laughter, say the
philosophers, are closely linked
and perhaps it is because Eddie
Cantor is so profoundly aware
of the less happy side of life that
he has become the great comedi-
an he is.
He has made the people laugh
and, sometimes, he has made the
people cry. Who can forget the
story Eddie told about the time
when, after the end of the war,
candy was being distributed to
the children in a camp of Jewish
refugees. One little sad black
eyed child seemed disconsolate
even in the presence of the free
candy. Eddie approached her.
Little girl, don't you want can
dy, what do you want?"
Love me-" replied the little
girl.

This witticism can not be ap-
piled to Eddie Cantor whose Goth
birthday is being observed at the
end of this month by a Thousand
Dollar Bond to Israel dinner. Ed
die was bar mitzvah at the prop
er age-thirteen-and his Jewish
awareness and devotion has
never tagged.

House Group Approves Funds
To Cover Last y. S. Pay Raise;
500 Million Cut From Supply Bill
Committee Action
Averts Possibility
Of General Loyoff
By Joseph Young

The House Appropriations Com
mittee today voted the Govern
ment's departments and agencies
virtually the full amount requested
to absorb the cost Of last years
Federal pay raise.
The sum would make it unnec-
essary for agencies to dismiss en-
ployes to make up the cost Of the
pay boost and would insure reg
ular Federal pay days between
now and June 30. when the fiscal
year ends.
At the same time the commit
tee approved the retroactive por-
ton of last years pay raise for
about $1,000 ungraded employees
who have been denied the back
pay because they are not covered
by the Classification Act. These
workers have not received three
months retroactive pay between
last July and October 16 when the
pay raise became law. Approx
mately 5000 Of the group are in
Washington.
The bill also carries funds to
take care of pay raises in the
District government.
Can Absorb Slight Cut.
President Truman had requested
$353, ,006, AGO to make up for last
years pay raise. The Committee
approved $347,708,87S. This is a
reduction of $5,297 ,582, or only
IA per cent.
Federal personnel officials said
this slight reduction could easily
be absorbed by agencies through

mel vacancies that occur.
Last October's Federal pay raise
averaged 9.4 per cent and was
retroactive to July l, 1851.
Approved in Final Days.
Since the measure was ap-
proved by Congress in the closing
days of the session, there was no
chance for Congress to pass al
supplemental appropriation to
cover the cost of the pay raise
bill.
In approving nearly all Of the
funds asked for by the PreSi-
dent, the committee apparently
was impressed by the fact that
the Budget Bureau already has
required the various agencies tol
absorb $311. 1.158, 1888 of the $685.

legislation.
This was done by administrative
economies and the reduced annual
leave benefits for Government
employees which gave the agencies

the need for fewer employees.

Independent Voters
May Decide 6. Q. P.
New Hampshire Issue
Eisenhower Supporters
Mokine Strong Effort
To Capture Ballots
D.. H~,.ll :~~1~
By Gould Lincoln
s,or Stuff Correspondent

MANCHESTER, N. H., Mar. T.
The INDEPENDENT, or undeclared,
voters OF New Hampshire may
settle the contest between Gen.
Eisenhower and Senator Taft the
Republican presidential primary
next Tuesday.
Republican voters, judging from
straw polls, are rather evenly di-
vided between the general and
the Ohio Senator. Under the law
an undeclared voter may go to
the polls and request a Republi-
can or a Democratic ballot-and
cast his vote. In the coming pri-
mary, it is expected that the
bulk of the undeclared voters
will go into the Republican pri-
mary.
One of the chief claims made
by The supporters of Gen. EiSen-
hover IS that the general appeals
particularly to the great inde-
pendent vote-that he can get this
vote where Senator Taft and other
Republican candidates could not.
Here's a chance to demonstrate
the truth of this claim. and for
that reason among others the New
Hampshire primary is of prime
Importance.
Hold Balance of Power.
The independent. or undeclared
vote, in this State is considerable.
For example. in Manchester the
undeclared voters, in round num-
bers total 10000. The total num-
ber of Democratic voters in the
city is approximately $1,000 and
of Republican voters, 10000. It
is clear that the undeclared voters
in an election hold the balance
of power.
The Eisenhower campaign man.
ayers, in Manchester, Concord,
Nashua and other important COM
munities. therefore, have been
making a special drive to win the
support of the undeclared voters
Two hundred women volunteers
have been canvassing the wards In
Manchester by telephone to line
up these voters for the general.
The polls show Gen. Eisenhower
far ahead with the independent
voters.
Also, the Eisenhower people
have been making a special effort
to register new" voters-flrst-
time voters sand in Manchester
about 1900 Of these have been
added to the rolls. The great ma
jority Of these new voters. it is
claimed, win vote for the general.
Raimond Bowles is the Eisen-
hover manager for Manchester.
He is an enthusiastic, hard-driv-
ing young man who was manager
of the campaign in which Senator
