CHICAGO - Pigtails and fairy
stories make a delightful combina-
tion at Holy Name Cathedral School
where youngsters read the comic
book "Uncle Charles Fables" as
an experiment in elementary edu-
cation. Little Mary Joyce Heaney
heartily approves of the idea Of
improving her reading ability with
stories of beautiful princesses. Un-
der the direction of Sister Mary
Victorice, the youngsters read the
books, which are written in perfect
grammar and feature fine art work,
during class-time. She has found
the comic book speeds reading, i'm
proves art work and stimulates
children's interest in reading.

Truman Warns Steel Shutdown Will Affect Korea

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman told the Senate Monday that if it restricts use of govern ment funds for operation of the seized steel mills it may result in "paralyzing the operations of the government in an emergency"
 He said enactment of the COP proposals might lead to a com plete shutdown in steel and ''im- mediately reduce the ability of our troops in Korea to defend themselves against attack"
 Further, the President contend ed, much of the debate on the matter has been of extreme and misleading character"
 Truman repeated what he had said in a message April 9-that he ordered temporary operation" of the steel mills by the govern ment with the utmost reluctance; that the idea of government oper- ation of the steel mills was thor oughly distasteful to me; and that I wanted to see it ended as soon as possible"
 The President went on to chal- lenge Congress to come up with a better way to deal with the sit uation created by the steel wage dispute if it does not like what he has done.
 He warned: "If the Commun- ists start another offensive in Ko- req this spring, the success or failure of this offensive may we'll depend on whether or not we have kept our steel mills in op- eration. This is a consideration over and above the drastic effect steel shutdown would have on our total defense effort"

Truman Threatens Congress With Series of Special Sessions If Money
 For Defense Needs Is Not Voted
By c. MILTON KELLY

WASHINGTON, (P)-President Truman's threat to crack the knuckles of Congress with chain of special session if it balks at voting the money he thinks is needed for defense, drew defiant retorts Saturday from several legislators.
 ''He seems to have gone com- pletely off his head" Sen. Taft, candidate for Republican nomin- ation, said in Springfield, Mass, when he learned of Truman's statement Friday in speech dedicating a new Amvets Nation al headquarters.
 "That's one he can't make stick" said Sen. Capehart R-InO expressing the mood of many congressman of both parties who believe the 52 and half billion QOlldIS Il Ullldll IldS dShCu TUT IllC defense program and foreign aid is too much.
 Truman departed from his pre- pared text to charge that "dan- gerous and destructive cuts in the program, which he said were made for the sake of election year headline hunting, would risk the lives of American soldiers.
 He said he would "call special 'turnip day session of congress" every day up to New Years, if necessary, until restoration of whatever eventual cut is decided upon.
 The reference was to a surprise special session he called July 26, 1948, date known in his home state of Missouri as "turnip day."

Cement Plant
 To Open Soon On Kodiak Island

OAKLAND, (P) - Permanente Cement Co.,, announced today it will open a bulk delivery plant on Kodiak Island, Alaska, June 1 to afford a greater supply of cement for defense and civilian construc- ton in that area.
 The new plant, with 7,0O0- barrel capacity; will be the com pany's third in Alaska, augment ing a 3O,OO0-barrel distribution plant at Anchorage and a 2,000- barrel auxiliary bulk delivery plant at Fairbanks.
 The Kodiak plant, located at Woman's Bay, will receive bulk cement by barge from Perman- ente's Seattle distribution plant Initially, it will serve Drake Pu- get Sound, the company building additions to the naval operations base on Kodiak and other con-; tractors engaged in defense proj- ects there.
 The plant will be equipped with sacking facilities and portable pneumatic cargo handling machin- cry for unloading the bulk cement from the barges, resulting in saw ings in the cost of cement in Ko- diak by eliminating the present sack delivery system.

 To Be Tomorrow
(BY THE ASSOCIATED PREss)

Idaho Democrats picked dozen presidential nominating delegates today as a prelude to similar but bigger-scale doings tomorrow in Pennsylvania and New York.
 The Idaho delegation, despite wooing by Senators Kefauver and Robert Kerr, is expected to be un- instructed on how to cast its 12 votes next July.

 Both parties in both states will send their delegates to Chicago without instruction.

Army Battles To
 Save ShermanField From Flood Waters

KANSAS CITY, (P) - T h e Army, augmented by civilian workers, carried on a grim battle Monday to save the Sherman Air Field of the historic Fort Leaven- worth from the unruly Missouri river.
 Some 1,6OO men sloughed through mud in chilly rain, bol- stering a three mile stretch of dikes against the tremendous riv- CT pressure. It was a dangerous hand-to-hand struggle.
 Flood waters behind the dikes stood as much as nine feet above the level of the air field. Lifeboats were kept at hand. Most of the work was done without aid of machines. The field was too soggy for trucks.
 Fort Leavenworth is about 25 miles northwest of Kansas City. The critical area along the flood ing Missouri is now between St.. Joseph, Mo-, and Kansas City.
 The around-the-c clock activity was carried on at night under strings of lights.
 The flood fighters even includ- ed instructors at the Army's Com mand and General Staff School at Fort LeaVenWOrth.

5 Million Man-HOurS To Engineer USAF Bomber

More than 3,000,000 hours of engineering time were required to design the latest USAF heavy bomber, says the Aircraft Indus tries Association. If three aero nautical engineers had been as signed to this job 40 hours a week, every week without vaca- ton, and had never been late or ill, they could have finished the bomber in 1952-but would have had to start work IA years before Columbus discovered America.

Key Telephone Strike Settled, Opening Way For Resumption of Service

NEW YORK, (P)-A comprom- ise wage increase, early Saturday ended the key strike of 10000 CIO installers against the Western FL ectric Co.,, and fostered hopes for a quick settlement in two remain ing telephone walkouts.

 "They should be subject to i'm peachment for such double cross ing of the Alaskans they are sup posed to represent. Instead the Democratic legislature just wink ed while Alaska got black eye throughout the nation"
 In other resolutions, the con vention called for sale of gold on the open market, election of the Territorial governor by the peo- pie, amendment of filing laws for territorial candidates, a change in the Alaska income tax law which is now based on 10 per cent of the federal tax, and federal funds of 5 million dollars for loans to Alaska veterans.

Continuing Interest Is Shown In Statehood
 Bill, Bartlett Reveals

WASHINGTON, P-Aides of Delegate Bartlett report there is a continuing show of interest in the possibility Of Alaska state hood.
 Unfortunately-from the advo- cates' point of view-it's not in the Senate which sent the bill back to committee earlier this year and so far has shown no in dication of taking it up again.
 Bartlett's office workers said they are receiving a steady stream of queries-"four or five a day" - asking for information on the. pros and cons of the statehood issue. Most of the requests come from school children.
 In response, they receive copy of the Senate Interior Committees report which contains views of the majority, favorable to state hood, and the minority, against statehood.

Spring Arrives

Spring has arrived in Noble County and already we can
see indications of awakening from the long but not especially
hard winter months with the community and county taking
on the new look.
We have had several warm days and there are signs all
around us of people cleaning up their yards, the garden spots
and the surroundings in general, all preparing for the sum-
mer months.
Caldwell business men jumped the gun several weeks
ago and combined their efforts to clean the winter mud and
debris from the streets around the public square and one
block off.
An effort is now being made to have this become a
monthly affair, at least during the early summer, and if this
should become a reality, Caldwell will be one of the clean
est county seats in this section.
Much good was accomplished by the business men but a
rain in midafternoon halted some of their efforts.
The job has not yet been completed but it was far
enough advanced that much good can be seen.
The Chamber of Commerce plans a continuation of this
ct and we should be out in front in our efforts to keep
Caowell clean and progressive.
Each and every business man and property owner can
help with this idea by keeping their own site clean.
Any community is always judged first by its clean ap-
pearance and now is the time to think about cleaning up and
keeping it clean.
Why not start now and make Caldwell one of the clean
est county seats in the state?

Make Life Beautiful
James w. Sullivan

In this business of living, we
read in the Bible, THE just shall
live by faith" We can see faith
is not just d religious belief as
some might think, but a way of
life.
1t is given by Paul. That faith
is the assurance of things hoped
for; though evidence of things
not seen. This can mean we must
have faith to live. l mention this
living by faith because it is mis-
understood by so many people.
In life, faith is believing we
will have our desires fulfilled.
Every one of us can have faith
to live by, by simply believing
life can be good and set out to
make it that way. Most of us
| know more about everything but
the art of living. We should do as
| the Greeks admonish, know
ThNself." That was their first
assignment, which if we were
to do, we should know all the
knowledge worth while. We, who
are studying life and the way to
happiness, find the old proverb,
GAS a man thinketh in his heart,
so is he," is true in every case.
Then as we return to the
thoughts we have to determine
the way of our circumstances. |
don't ask anyone to believe this,
all he needs to do is give it a
trial. Try thinking friendly
thoughts, you will make friends.
Try thinking thoughts of sue
cess and prosperity and. you will
get the same.
No doubt, to many of my read
erS, this is a new way of happi-
ness. You can make life beauti-
full for yourself and loved ones
by the way you think. Have faith
in God and yourself and you
can't fail to receive good for all
you give.

Property R~eappraisaI

Whatever has happened to the controversial subject of
property reappraisal' which was kicking around this
county about six months ago?
The subject died such a quick death that we are curious.
Will we have another reappraisal as the state demanded or
will they be content with the figures submitted in 1850 for
property valuation in this county.
At the time, this publication commended that the state did
not have the right to determine the property valuations in
this county and we are still sticking by our guns.
But if we recall correctly the state filed a mandamus
action against the county and was going to court to force the
issue.
Perhaps the state has seen the light and will let well
enough alone but we doubt it.

Whnre Government completes
with private enterprise at a loss,
ALL OF THE PEOPLE are
forced % pay a share of that loss,
WHILE ONLY THOSE WHO
PURCHASE OR UTILIZE such
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS goods
and services actually obtain any
benefit. This is unconstitutional
it abridges the right of the
people to make their own choice
as to what they shall purchase.
1t forces many people to pay
through taxation for things that
they themselves either cannot
use, Or would prefer to purchase
elsewhere.
History reveals that there are
many reasons why it is impos-
Sible for a government to carry
on a business as effectively and
economically as it can be done
by a privately-owned and pri-
vately-operated company. The
principal one of these reasons is
that when Government owns and
operates a business, it is forced
to set up a bureaucracy. This
bureaucracy, in spite of the
efforts of those in government
who may have executive ability,
inevitably becomes involved in
a network of red tape that makes

CAUGHT

When l was a boy here in the Holler, we had debating groups
that met each week in different schools to thrash out the problems
of our day. l was selected to lead one time and the question was,
Were the Indians worse used by the Whites than the Negroes?"
I had the Indian side. So I went out in the pasture to fetch
the sheep and though it a good opportunity to practice there, for
the sheep wouldn't know the difference anyway. / got up On a
stump and was lecturng to beat the band. One old buck stopped
eating grass and stuck his head up and just stood there looking al
me. Don't know what he was thinking, but l kept on talking.
After awhile l heard a noise down in the bushes and there
stood Dad. Don't know how long he was there, but he said if I did
as well at the debate as l did there among the sheep, my side would
win. Gosh, l ended that speech right then and there.
That night when l got up to talk I could not say a single word
didn't even know my own name. But we had a mighty fine teach
er and he put me on to lead in the next debate. That time I went
through with flying colors.
