This was indicated last week by

tax on gasoline, protection of road
funds by constitutional amendment,
opposition to road bond financing,
competition in sale of petroleum
products on all highways, promo
don of highway salty and repeal
of automotive levies when world
conditions permit it.

Poor Pop!
Fathers Day Pats
Due Sunday for
Man Who Pays

Poor Dad. No matter how he is
wined and dined on Fathers Day,
June Is, the fact remains he goes
back to work on Monday and again
assumes the role of breadwinner.
He pays the taxes, repairs every
thing from the vacuum to the
chimney, settles all family disputes,
and must live up to the hero-wor-
ship shining in his children's eyes.
But this is nothing new. Dads
been on the short end of the stick
for centuries.
! Back in the Stone Age, for ex-
ample, fathers were frequently
challenged to mortal combat by
their grown-up sons. After the
brawl was over and Pater was taken
out feet first, Junior became cap
tain of the cave and ruled until his
offspring revolted.
And in India, Dads authority
reached rock-bottom. If he fell in
debt, h S ever-loving wife could
sell him into slavery to pay off the
creditors.
In the African Sudan, even to-
day, wife who has borne five chill
dren may legally return to her
parents leaving guess who to
look after the youngsters.
Patron of human fathers was the
Greek god Zeus, father of the gods.
Ancient Greeks tossed party every
year and crowned his statues with
laurel wreaths. But what was the
traditional gift to this father of
fathers? Simply a cluster of ripe
grapes.
Modern fathers rate at least two
clusters.

Hold Your Hats, Kids
Taft Carnival to
Raise Campaign
Funds in County

A Taft Carnival to raise funds
for the Ohio Senator's presiden-
tial campaign will be given - and
how - Saturday, June 81, at the
AL Marah arm of Mr.. and Mrs
Garvin Tankersley, River Road and
Burdette Road, from four pm. I'M
til midnight.
Sponsored by the Women's FL
nance Division of the Taft Commit
tee in this area, the carnival is
touted as including just about every
carnival extravaganza known to
carnival goers - and then some -
all of which have been adapted to
Taft Campaign tempo. (Or is the
word accelerated instead Of adapt
ed"?)
Nonetheless the way we hear it,
there will be a believe-it-or-not ex-
hibit of the achievements of the
Republican 80th Congress -
achievements which the COP is
NSoud of, despite the frequent cas-
legations of the Man-in-the-W White
House. Another under-the-canvas
attraction will be a "Fair Deal
Side Show" including living ex-
amples of what Taft campaigners
consider the major plumbers of the
Truman Administration. (This we
gotta see.)
On top of that, the horse ring at
Al Marah will feature a real, hon
est to goodness western rodeo,
complete with Medic Evans, for
merly with the Tom Mix shows, to
say nothing Of the Brite Brothers
of considerable rodeo fame.
Guess who will be there - in
addition to a lot of top brass in the
County columns of the COP - the
candidate himself, Senator Robert
A. Taft, who has done lot of pow
erful inching up on other COP
contenders in recent weeks.
Also on hand will be Senator
John Marshall Butler of this state
who will play host to the other
senators and representatives who
attend the Taft Carnival.
General Chairmen are Miss Lou
Use Gore of Potomac and John Mar
1shall, Jr., of Washington. Chair
~ en- of arrangements are Mrs.
Constantine Brown and Mrs. A.
Burke Summers. Mrs. James Burns
is chairman of the ticket committee
and Mrs. Gorge Ferris is treasurer.
Admission to the carnival is one
buck, plus tax, on the barrel. Tick
cts may be obtained from any
committee member, or at COP
headquarters in Bethesda or from
Taft headquarters down in the
citv.
The pople who know point out
there will be entertainment for
every age group, and that includes
pony rides for the youngsters and
dancing for dancers from when they
begin until midnight.
