European Economy Improves

THOMAS T. WILSON, assistant to the
Director Of the Office of International
Trade. Department of Commerce, recently
told group of business men that Western
European production is again on the up
swing. Wilson, who has just returned from
Europe and an investigation of business
conditions. said Western European nations
are cooperating in many directions toward
greater economic federation
Wilson noted a rebuilding Of gold re
serves by major Western European coun-
tries and adoption of the coal and steel
unity plan as signs Of significant progress
He pointed out that France. for example
had increased its production to fifty per
cent more than that Of 1898, the year before
World War Ii began.
The L. s. official believes that incrcas-
cd trade is one of the answers TO Eu-
ropes economic problems, although not the
answer to all Of them. His words on the end
of the occasional period in Europe arc en-
Couraging and come at about the same time

Atomic Weapons Experiment

THE United States Army has announced
that its huge new 2S0-millimeter gun,
which was first shown last October, is being
used to fire projectilc armed with an
atomic Warhead.
The possibilities which are opened up by
atomic artillery are numerous, since artl
lcry is an all-Weather weapon, which can
fire very accurately. The disadvantage, of
course. is that artillery is of limited range
In tactical land battles, atomic artillery
could we'll be decisive and it is to find out
how decisive it might be that the test-frings
of an atomic she'll are being staged.
Though there has been speculation that
atomic artillery would be used in Korea if
necessary, to end the war. the latest report
indicates that such artillery is not yet ready

Population Shifting

TUE Census Bureau reported recently that
nine Of the forty-eight states lost popula-
ton between April. 1850 and July LIST, 1852
The country, as whole. experienced ma
tlonal population increase for the twenty
seven month period of "a per cent
This rate Of increase amounts to an an
nual increase Of almost million and a half
inhabitants. This rate of increase is obvious
ly a healthy one, rejecting the fact that in
states where the population declined. the
primary reason was an exodus of inhabit-
ants to other states
In this connection, the largest popula-
ton increase made by any state was regis
tered by California, which gained 100000
inhabitants in the twenty month
period. Texas came next with gain Of ATT,

for use The development seems to be COM
ing along rather slowly. although it is diff
ficult for an outsider to Judge the POSSIBLE
ties in such program, which is both new
and complex.
The worlds first atomic cannon was be-
ing talked many years ago, soon after the
1915 blasts in Japan
The atomic tests, which arc held period
ically in the United States, are necessary
to keep defense officials Informed on all
the possibilities Of atomic power Despite
its hints that a hydrogen experiment had
been conducted last November, there has
been no official word on further hydrogen
bomb experiments in the latest series of
tests.

000 while New York was third with 34S-
900. Michigan and Florida both gained over
100000. although the states of Florida,
Arizona and Nevada led in percentage in
creases, each state gaining over ten per
cent
OF the nine states which lost population,
six were in the South. They were Alabama,
Arkansas, kentucky, Mississippi, Tenncs-
see, West Virginia, Maine, Vermont and
North Dakota. Alabamas loss was the
greatest. percentage and is estimated
at four per cent Mississippi's loss is esti-
mated at three per cent; Names at 3.3 per
cent and North Dakotas loss at 3.2 per cent
the highest percentage losses among the
states losing population.

as does the statement from Secretary of
Agriculture Ezra T. Benson that the decline
in farm prices has ended. To those prophets
who foresaw a major recession in 1853
these developments seem out of tune.
Many economic experts are now con-
WINGED that chances for ma or recession
in the United States, and Europe, are not as
great as they were. In fact, mild recession
is thought possible for late 1858 or 1854
but it is no longer expected to bring about
severe reactions in the economies of West
European nations or the United States. The
new prospect is based partially on the cx
pectations that the new Administration will
continue foreign aid on a large-scale basis
and will continue to spend large, though
slightly reduced, sums of money on national
defense While defense spending will taper
down somewhat, the reduction is not eX-
pcctcd to be SO sharp as to plunge this
country, or the Western European world,
INTO an economic dilemma.

estimates that cigarette manufacturing in
1858 will exceed totals in 1852.
The increase in cigarette smoking is
more than offsetting the declines in other
types Of smoking. The average consumption
of 1852 - ten cigarettes day for every
person in the country, man and woman,
above Is years old = is quite a record con-
sidering the fact that many people do not
smoke at all 1t indicates that many smokers
average a pack or two packs of cigarettes
a day. Nor do the figures take into account
the longer cigarettes which have been in
PRODUCED by many leading manufacturers.
This means that the weed fiend is actually
inhailing more tobacco smoke per pack than
ever before.
The whole story adds up to a lot of
smoke, and All increasing output Of smoke
per person. Where the trend will end is any
ones guess, but there is little reason to as
sumo that peak production has been reached.

Their hustle and their noise,
With parking meters on their streets
Which oft affect my poise.

Their quiet and their calm;
Whose little streets meant home to me
With all its soothing balm.
No gathering din was on their streets
From morning into night.
No blinking lights and traffic roars

Folks on the streets We're not hemmed III
BY towering bricks and stone.
Where hurting folks pass to and fro
On business Of their own.

But old time towns We're lit with warmth
From friendly people there.

And each one knew the rest
And with friendly atmosphere

pected that good many OF those
stares were envious Why not?
That was only natural. There were
girls in the lobby who had known
Gunner all their lives
1t amused her to think how she
had met him only two short weeks
ago. She, schoolteacher, had
come 10 Ocean Bluffs for her vaca-
ton. She was croWding the whole
three months this year into three
weeks. so she could stay at the
fashionable Ocean Bluffs House,
and live like a lady.
She had met Gunner the second
day. She had driven golf ball into
the rough and it had darned near
knocked him for row of brassies.
That was the beginning They
played the remainder of the course
together. They had had dinner
that night They had danced later.
They had motored into the country
the next day, and played tennis the
next and swan and liked along the
beach.
When she had seen that the af-
fair was getting serious she had de-
Cided to be honest about herself.
That much was to her credit. She
had told him, a little fearfully.
about her past. And the truth was,
he had seemed relieved. He had
admitted that his own circum-
stances weren't unlike her own. He
really couldn't afford to stay at
Ocean Bluffs, but all his friends
were there and he hoped to pick up
a little money on the side as a pro-
fessional golfer.
Helene had been disappointed.
She was honest about that, too. She
had believed that any one who
stayed at Ocean Bluffs was fabu-
lousy wealthy. But, thinking about
it now. she had decided it didn't
really make any difference.
Learning about the gold mine
had been purely accidental. There
mad been a telegram waiting for
Gunner yesterday when they re-
turned 10 the hotel, She couldn't
help seeing it the way he held it
in his hands.
II was that evening that he pro-
posed. and she had accepted.
Gunner stopped his car on a high
bluff above a rocky shore, spot
that was familiar to both Of them
For a moment he sat staring So
berly toward Plovincetoun Light.
vaguely outlined on the horizon. He
said presently:
Helene, there's something /
want to explain. You've probably
heard talk around the hotel about
my inheriting a gold mine" He
laughed shortly. nervously. Please
don't put any stock in it. The mine
hasn't been worked for years. 1t
isn't worth a MCKEE
A little chill ran up and down
Helene's back. She forced q smile
Il hadn't heard any talk Of gold
mine" she heard herself saying
Which was true.
Good !" Gunner exclaimed. Il
wanted you to know the truth. I
haven't any profession. except golf
haven't any job. lin not much
of success-now. With you
feel I can lick the world. But I
want to be fair. want you to know
what you're stepping into. There s
still chance to change your mind
if you want"
Helene caught her breath Well
well Well, Just ike the story
books. Here ia. her opportunity to
be-a martyr hero Here was the
test. No gold mines. No job. Just
