ing to the aid of boys and girls and
young men and women stricken by
infantile paralysis, the use of
March of Dimes funds reached ex-
ceedingly great proportions. The
sum of S79, 100000 has been spent
for patient care alone in the last
four years. We must see that this
great work continues" The COVER

been more widespread, with 1851
the fourth successive year in which
this cruel disease wrought great
havoc amongst the citizens of our
country; and
Whereas, in rallying to the aid
of boys and girls and young men
and women stricken by infantile
paralysis, the use of March of
Dimes funds reached exceedinly
great proportions. viz, the sum of
ST9,000,O00 for patient care alone

tWhereas, this amount was con-
siderably in excess of the $41, O00,-

FTC is supposed to be protecting
American independent business
from monopolies growing strong
er illegally every day.

The last ETC activity report
covers the month of June, 1851.
Il Il u
This report shows at the start
of the month, the agency had
IS cases of alleged violations of
antitrust laws carried over, and
received 178 more cases during
the month. Yet during the month,
the ETC only closed 20 cases.
X =
Obviously, officials spending a
great deal of time chasing rab-
bits to study their reproductive
and dietary habits, have little
time left to enforce laws that
keep small businessmen from
being driven out Of business.
In California, wild rabbits are
a serious pest to farmers. So 1t
can be assumed that while In
vestigating, ETC officials also
engaged in wild rabbit chases.
In Washington, ETC claims
manpower is needed to vigorous
ly enforce the antitrust laws.
~ -
But a special report Of the
Joint Congressional Committee
on Reduction Of Non-essential
Federal Expenditures finds that
in May the ETC received pay in
creases averaging S50.88 per
month per person, and in June
10 more people were added to
the staff.
Yet the report Of ETC activity
for June shows far less than 10Ts
of the cases on file in which vio-
1ations Of the antitrust laws are
involved were handled.
It Is on the basis of such rec
ords as this that the Senate
Small Business Committee head
ed by Sen. John Sparkman I'd.
Ala.,) is launching an investiga-
ton as to just why the nations
antitrust laws are not being en-
forced. And with the thorough
ness with which this committee
probes, 1t is a certainty 1t will
produce facts, not rabbits.
Smyrna times., 1952-01-03

Il
A man named Earl Wilson has
a small rabbitry in Stanton. 1t
Is small rabbitry because all
rabbitries are small. So far, no
big rabbit combines, or rabbit
mOn0pOlies have been formed.
The rabbit business Is left pref
ty much to small enterprisers.
y
And probably, because there is
this lack of monopoly practice in
rabbitries. the industry fell un-
der suspicion.
From enthusiasm, or perhaps
from actual experience, Wilson
had been claiming that Angors
rabbits can be raised easily and
cheaply. The FTC took a stern
stand to the contrary, and VIII
son has now agreed to quit say
Ing that rabbits can be raised
easily and cheaply.

1t Is not known how the ETC
reached such a Notwithstanding
conclusion. 1t is felt perhaps
ETC has staff people who can
talk to rabbits, and they inter-
viewed rabbits who protested
strongly any claim of this nature
being made on their behalf.

The entire matter could be
laughed of as ridiculous. It
could be charged off as just
more monkeyshines, or, rabbit
shines, with the taxpayers mon

Dana c. Smith. key figure in the

fund for Senator Nixon of Califor-
mia. is highly successful attorney
specializing in tax matters.
Friends say that Mr.. Smith, who
is trustee of the Nixon fund, also
has done well in real estate.
Always a Republican, he began
taking an active interest in politics
in 1886. mainly in congressional
races in California. Finally, in
1948. he stepped up to the fore
front Of supporters of Harold Stas-
sen. unsuccessful aspirant for the
Republican presidential nomina-
ton. 6,
Like Mr.. Stassen, Mr.. Smith is
IA Minnesotan. He was born in
Minneapolis So years ago, studied
law at Cornell University and came
to California in 1921. -
He hit his first real political
winner in 1850. when he was

tive Nixon's smash win over Helen

fund and that there's absolutely
nothing wrong with it," He per.
Sonally signs all the checks.
The $2,500 travel expense none,
allotted Senator's just isn't enough
for a man representing Statt
