AS is we'll known, Israel still
has very hard struggle ahead
and new items are being added
to the austerity list all the time,
which gives rise to this story:
sabra visited the United States
and stayed at a small hotel. He
asked the manager what time of
day he could use his electric iron
to press his clothes. He was told
there was no limit on power at
all. while you're explaining
these things to me-" said the
sabra, when can I go out shop

the time," smiled the manager.
"And during which hours is there
hot water?" continued the sabra.
"At any hour" said the manager.
"And I thought America was

we were Is years ago!"

signature, then craftily forged it
onto checks.
The orders that pour in from all
over the country are often an
eloquent barometer of popular
opinion and its regard for national
figures. In 1948 there were 122
streets named after Eisenhower.
Today the total has mounted to
324. In 1913 some 80 areas called
for signs bearing MacArthur's
name. Today the General can find
streets named after him in more
than 26O towns and cities from
coast to coast.
The Bettinger files also reveal
failing popularity. Each Novem-
Der, after an election, many streets
are renamed. Thus, in some COM
munities Roosevelt has been re-
placed. Other victims of the
public's tickle loyalty are
Dewey, Hoover and Pershing.
The Bettinger folk keep a vast
''morgue" which contains a STEM
Gil of every street they have ever
printed. Thus, should a city in
Nebraska order a Bedford Ave

index will turn up a stencil of the
same Bedford Avenue used on pre-
vious occasions for municipalities
in Boston, New York and 66 other
cities.

his morgue devoid of a single

promptly cut and, by working
overtime, the deadline was met.
BY and large, the sign habits of
Americans run true to a pattern.

Truman Is Confident
Of Cleanup Results
Under McGranery

President Truman said today q
cleanup of the Federal Govern
ment will take care of itself as
soon as Judge James p. Nc
Granery takes Office as Attorney
General.
Mr.. Truman told a news con-
ference Judge McGranery should
have been confirmed by the
Senate Immediately upon his
nomination without what the
President termed all the hooey.
The reference obviously was to
the delayed hearings held by the
Senate Judiciary Committee on
the question Of Judge Nc
Granery's fitness for Office and
the fight some Republican Sena-
tors made against confirmation Of
him for the cabinet post.
The Senate finally confirmed
Judge McGranery last Tuesday
six weeks after Mr.. Truman nomi-
mated the Philadelphia judge to
succeed J. Howard McGrath as
head of the Justice Department.
Judge McGranery plans to take
the oath of Office Tuesday.
The President told reporters
that Judge McGranery is going to
be a good Attorney General.
He declined to give details Of
what form the Government clean
up may take. but told reporters
they needn't worry about it.
Mr.. McGrath appointed New
bold Morris, a New York Republic
can, as a special assistant to clean
out Government corruption.
The two soon fell out, however.
over Mr.. Morris plans to ask all
high Government officials, includ-
ing Mr.. McGrath. for a complete
statement of their financial worth
and income.
In the upshot. Mr.. McGrath
fired Mr.. Morris and Mr.. Truman
