COST OF DEATH DOWN

The Atomic Scientists News, English monthly
magazine, reports that the per capita cost of exermna
ing human beings going down. In other words there is
defaonary trend in the business of exterminating hu
man beings.
The British magazine estimates that in another two
years. the cost of determination will down to per
person. This will be made possible by an increase In the
supply of atomic fuel which will provide material enough
to permit production of 5000 atomic bombs year.
Whereas each atomic bomb can annihilate 25, 900
persons the ordinary high explosive bomb which has
been used for decades will kill only fraction of that
number And the cost of each DEATH by the ordinary high
explosive bomb, is several times 80.
Now that appears that the hydrogen bomb is on the
horizon might look forward even further reduc
ton in this field One could conclude that the infationary
problem in the human determination business has been
licked although hardly describe this as cheerful
financial trend 1t is also interesting to note that those
who predicted that the cost of wagng atomic and hydro
gen bomb warfare would become prohibtve year or
two ago, confronted with the fact that human
determination, via atomic hydrogen bomb methods is
fast becoming one Of the cheaper ways to die.

Warrant Sought
For Arrest OF
Mercy Killer

DETROIT tR - Police here
sought murder warrant against
62-year-old William r. Jones who
Thursday electrocuted his invalid
wife, Barbara, in the bathtub of
their home and attempted to take
his own life unsuccessfully in a
mercy killing pact.
Mrs. Jones, also 81, suffering
from a diabetic ailment, was leg
less after two amputation opera
tiOns.
Authorities quoted Jones as say
ing both he and his wife were
sick and despondent. Jones told
police they decided on suicide by
electrocution.
Under questioning, Jones said he
filled the bathtub with water and
gently placed his wife in the tub.
He split the ends of an electric
cord, hooking one wire to a faucet
and tying the other wire around
his Wife's wrist. Then he turned
on the current.
Jones said he tried to electrocute
himself at the same time by
placing his bare feet in the charged
water, but failed. A relative en-
tered the house by chance and
stopped Jones from attempting to
hang himself.

PROTESTS BIRD KILLING

Editor, The Citizen:
I wish to protest against the
wanton, senseless killing of birds
in this city. Several days ago l
found q large paper sack full Of
bird corpses spilling out Of 1t and
thrown away in the vacant lot
close to the sidewalk On Duval
Street between United and South
Streets. l called Mrs. Frances
Hames, the bird expert in our
local Monroe County Audubon
Society, to identify the halfdecom-
posed birds, hence this delay in
writing. There were three red
breasted Mergansers "a kind oi
duck) and one Coot or American
Scooter. can understand killing
for food if one is starving but
killing Just to kill is beyond me
and frightens me. If we cannot
have compassionate feeling for all
living things then we cannot have
1t for mankind and that leads to
4 very black picture indeed. ,
Please let US study the birds who
do US no harm but goo. Let US
give them water and sanctuary
and help ourselves 10 q better
community and q better world.

School Race
Question To
Supreme Court

WASHINGTON R-The future of
racial segregation in public schools
now rests with the Supreme Court.
The bitterly disputed question
which the court must answer: do
separate school systems for white
and Negro students violate the Con-
stitution?
Arguments ended Thursday. II
may be several months before the
court gives its answer. When it
comes it will either reaffirm or
overturn an 1896 decision which
established the separate but
equal" doctrine that segregation
is constitutional if equal facilities
are provided for both races.
In five different cases, the high
est tribunal is being asked to knock
out that doctrine and hold that
segregation itself is unconstitu-
tional.
The cases came to the court
from Kansas, South Carolina, Vir-
ginia, Delaware and the District of
Columbia.
In all, II states and the District
of Columbia have laws making
separate schools for Negroes and
whites mandatory. Four states per.
nit local school boards to provide
separate schools.
The crux of the argument against
court decree outlawing segrega-
ton is that nothing has happened
since the 1896 decision to cause
an upsetting of the separate but
equar' doctrine, and that the ques-
ton of integrated or separate

One Woman Is
Back OF Many
Holiday Dolls
BY DOROTHY ROE
Associated Press Women's Ed

~SS"~'o'e 'SSS WoH1Sn E0lfof
This is a Christmas story for
grown-ups who remember the spe-
cial thrill of Christmas doll.
For 20 years the person response
Bile for some of the most resplen-
dent dolls in Santa'S annual pack
has been a small, brighteyed wo-
man named Nine. Beatrice Alex
ander. She never has outgrown her
own love for dolls, and that may
be the reason she is considered
tops in her field.
Nine. Alexander can't remer,-
ber a time when dolls were not
an important part of her life. Her
parents ran the first doll hospital
in New YorF, and little Beatrice
used to like to make dresses for
the convalescent dolls. She contin-
lued this habit after she grew up,
and progressed naturally into the
business of manufacturing dolls.
You may remember some of her
more famous doll-people. One of
the an-time best-sellerS in doll his
tory wa. her series of Dionne
quintuplet DOLLS, which followed the
progress Of the five little sisters
each year until they were 5.
Currently her little women and
little men are the prizes of many
young doll collectors, as is her
Alice in Wonderland, who looks as
if she had stepped straight out of
Tenniel drawing.
In less classical vein, Nine. Alex
ander makes plenty of strictly
modern dolls, such as Maggie, the
teen-age doll, who wears long nylon
stockings, a real girdle and bra
and the latest styles of the teen
set, including skirt, blouse and
cinch belt.
Among the lingerie and aces
Sories that come in the doll ward
robes are real suede slippers, sad
die shoes, hats packed in their own
boxes, nylon slips and panties and
even a taffeta shoe bag, to hold
three pairs of slippers and one
pair of boots.
All the doll clothes are made
with infinite attention to detail
tiny buttons and real buttonholes,
dainty lace edgingS on petticoats,
costume jewelry scaled to size,
shoes made like those worn by
real little girls.
Wigs are of special woven
plastic fiber that shines like real
hair just after a shampoo, can
be washed, combed and curled
without damage.
It's a safe bet that her next
production will be a royal doll
in honor of the coronation. Says
she:
Il suppose I should retire, but
| can't have so much fun all
the time, with my family of dolls"

Quandary Presented By Govt
Spending vs.. Curtailment
BY SAM DAWSON

NEW YORK RL-The govern
ment is cutting back or stretching
out defense production with one
hand. With the other it is signalling
civilian industry to come in and
take up any of the slack.
And businessmen are debating
today whether industry can keep
employment high and general
prosperity rolling on less govern
ment spending next year than had
been expected earlier.
The auto and construction in
dustries are told to get in there
and try. They are told they can
make more cars in the first half
of 1853, and can start after Jan. 1
many buildings of a type now
under tight controls.
But the government also warns
they will have trouble finding the
metal-and thinks the planned cut
backs in production of tanks and
military trucks won't be much
help to them.
The government contends, in 9TH
er words, that there is no slack
yet.
The stretch-out in defense plans
part of it due to policy changes
and part of it due to bugs in the
plans-haS been apparent this fall
in the failure of government cpend-
ing to reach the levels originally
set.
From the planemaking centerS
come reports that the peak in
military aircraft production, origi-
nally set for next spring, may not
be reached for almost a year be-
cause Of technical troubles.
And the Defense Department ad-
mitted Wednesday that starting in
July production of tanks and mill
tary trucks will be cut back.
The stretch-out in defense plans,
however, may mean a cut Of about
S billion dollars in military ap-
preparations in the next federal
budget (Which the taxpayers won't
mind), but which industrial plan
ming had counted on.
The new administration may see
things differently, Of course, and
either stretch out spending more
or restore it.
The Defense Department en-
phasizes that there is no real cut
back planned-just spreading out
OF spending over a longer period.
This viii give industry a milder
boost next year, but a mole sus-
tanned one in 1854 and even 1855.
And Treasury Secretary Snyder
has the consoling belief that the
population growth and high living
standards will continue to create.

both goods and services" even
after the defense boom ends.
To take up any slack when de-

Secretary Sawyer has s committee

psnd the civilian economy. Busi-
ness organizations also arc work

Emily Post
Suys--

An evident misunderstanding is
the reason for this letter: my
son is to be married next month.
About two months ago his
|fiancee's mother and sister came
to me and asked If I would help
with a shower they were planning
for the bride. I know it is not
correct for the immediate family
to give a shower. but said nothing
and agreed to help in whatever
way I could. However. no definite
date had been set at the time
and waited to hear further from
them. Quite by accident. I learned
the date of the shower from a
friend, but I was not notified. so
Z did not go. Now my son tells
me that his fiancee's family are
very much put out because I did
not go to the shower. Don't you
think it was up to them to let
me know when the shower was
to take place?"
Certainly. it was up to them to
let you know when the shower
was to take place. and. since you
were not told, I don't see how
you could possibly have taken
lpart in it.
Use for Paper DoiIies
Dear Mrs. Post: Will you please
;Itell me whether it is proper to
use lace paper doilies under in
dividual servings of cake or ice
|cream? If not, will you please
name the times when paper
doilies may be used?
Answer: The lace paper dolly
or mat is put under the whole
cake-especially under very
deliberately iced one (such as q
birthday cake). Also individual
molds Of ice cream are often
placed on small doilies of paper
lace.
Senior or Junior?
Dear Mrs. Post: I am a widow
and one Of my sons is John Doe
jr. He has recently married and
I would like to know if he and
his wife continue using Junior
or do they drop the junior and

his wife are Mr.. and Mrs. John
