Christmas Trees
Threat
OF Holiday Fires

The Christmas tree, center of
holiday festivities in most
American homes, can easily be-
come the center of tragedy,
warns the Hardin Volunteer
Fire department. Because a fir
tree is filled with pitch and ris-
in, it is one of the most COM
buSible objects known - and
once ignited, it burns so rapid
ly that it is virtually impossible
to extinguiSh.
Keep Christmas merry" the
department. advises. FOLLOW
these safety rules and avoid a
fire in your home during the
Christmas season."
/. Choose a small tree. It's
less dangerous than a large one.
2. Don't set it up until a few
days before Christmas. Until
then, keep it outdoors.
3. Place it in the coolest part
of the house, away from fire
places or radiators. And don't
let it block an exit.
4. Stand it in water, or use
a live tree planted in a tub of
earth.
5. Do not ever use cotton or
paper for decoration on or
around the tree.
6. Do not put electric trains
under the tree.
7. Use only electric lights,
never candles and see that the
wires are not frayed. Be sure
the wiring sets for lights you
choose are marked as having
been inspected by Underwriters
Laboratories, Inc.
8. Provide a switch some dist
ance from the tree for turning
tree lights on and off. Don't
plug or unplug them beneath
the tree.
8. Throw away all gift wrap
pings as soon as the presents
have been opened; don't let
them pile up near the tree.
TO- Do not leave tree lights
buring when no one is home.
IL. If needles near the lights
turn brown, move the lights.

peace to America and the world" In
that case he would be willing to
sacrifice" himself and "shorten my
life expectancy" All of which, as the
late Alfred Z. Smith used to say, is
the "old phonus bolognus'
Although Mr. Truman knew per-
fectly well that Representative Sab
ath was going to repeat his words
to the waiting reporters, this does not
imply that Mn Truman is a conscious
humbug. But, after man has been
president few years he has to be an
extremely strong man not to become
an unconscious humbug. For years he
has had to pretend that the public
interests and his personal interests
are inseparably linked. In the end
they seem so identical that he is in
capable Of complete frankness about
either. That was true Of the late Mr..
Roosevelt and it seems increasingly
true Of Mr. Truman.
For example. Mr. Truman might
have replied to Mr. Sabaths question
by saying: See here. Adolph, Of
course, | would like to be President
again but as an experienced politician
you ought to know why am not GO
ing to run. In 1913 | barely squeaked

years ! have become weaker. For one
thing, there is the intensified and in
creased Democratic opposition in the
South. For another, there is the re-
vealed corruption and inefficiency in
the Justice and Treasury depart
ments. For another, there is the Hiss
conviction and the feeling against
Dean Acheson. For another, there is
the fact that inevitably a party in
power for twenty years engenders
greater hostility than one in power
for sixteen years. There are other
reasons but these are enough. If the
glamor Of the job and the orthodox
presidential pose have not clouded
Mr.. Humans head, he knows these
things to be true. Instead, he gives
out with the old stuff about being
willing to make the sacrifice" and
shorten his life if the people call
him to bring peace to the world. And
he encourages his friend, Senator
Anderson, to talk about draft"
with full knowledge that no draft"
is possible in which he does not ac-
lively connive. 1t isn't the reporters
who have made the mystery" about
his intentions ridiculous.
