accounts of life in Tabor City
while he was serving in that capa-

Tabor City was one more wild
place during those years." he said,
then the sparkle returned to his
eyes and he grinntd and told of
several men who contributed their
share to making it wild place.
when anyone decided to get
drung and take the town. every
one else in town went inside and
let him have it. Some of them got
mean with it and l can still see
one man riding into town on his
horse waving a pistol in the air
and shooting several times. That
was his way of letting folks know
he wanted the town and that was
the way he got il.
"One Teller in particular that
/ remember" he continued. was
a tobacco buyer and a mighty
good man. He never was mean
but when he got d drink he lust
did little things that were amusing
10 anyone watching.
He was about 7 feet tall and
tipped the scales about $50 pounds
and was all man. His favorite
paStlme was to step out in the
street and grab the back end of a
wagon being pulled by a mule
ne would turn that wagon around,
mule and all. and head them in
Inc other direction"
In recalling the first AUTOMOBILES
That came 10 this section of the

fellow would just pick up the back

Kelly served on the local school
board for IL years and served
TWO terms on the town Board of
Aldermen. He is the only member

Il heard about your bandits,
l said, to pass the time until he
was ready to take notice of me.
"Bandits!" he exclaimed.
Bandits? Poor miserable spivs.
D'you know that the one kneel-
ing on the counter hadn't any
socks on? That's how l knew
there was no danger. Imagine a
full-time bandit going out to
stick up banks without his
socks!' He paused and, waving
my check aside, leaned forward
confidentially. "D'you know
what the fault of those fellows
was?" he asked.
mo. What was it?"
mo tact. No knowledge of
human nature. Shouted. Tried to
bully. Now, if that fellow had
approached me in the right way,
I'd have done anything / could
to meet his wishes. After all,
could see his point of view. He
was only trying to do what any
man in this bank would be happy
to do If he fancied he could
get away with it. Or any of the
ruddy customers either, if it
comes to that"
l made a deprecating noise.
''Oh, cut it QUIT" he. said.
What d'you know about banks?

why not?" he demanded.
'There'd be the seals to talk to
- anyway"
AS l went out, caught sight
of the bank manager in a little
cubicle. He rolled his eyes to
heaven in a hopeless sort of
way. Unfortunately Rogers saw
it, too. He called me back.
THAT two quid you've just
taken out - is that all there was
in your account?"
II think there's a little bit
more" l answered.
Better draw out the lot while
you're about it, he advised.
Some of the help we're getting
here nowadays -. Why, in a
real bank, they wouldn't even
get taken on as customers.

claimed the suitcase. That's our
dough! he said. Pretty near all
we possess. That's my bandit,
too. Now you've got him, don't
go knocking him about. l like
my property treated decently!"
We'll, you can guess what
happened when Rogers came
strolling back. Everyone crowd
ed round. The manager called
him in and tore up his dismissal
notice, which had just been
typed out. A special report was
sent up to headquarters - and
that, that special report, was the
cause of all the trouble"
How'd it happen?"
- JUST at that time there'd been
quite a few bank robberies, and
the Great High-Up had had the
idea of writing a personal appeal
to every employee, urging him to
defend the banks property at
the risk of his own life.
"One or two other High Ups
had suggested this might be a
waste of time, but the Great
High-Up had faith in his own
eloquence. Naturally, he be-
lieved that Rogers brave deed
was the first-fruit of his circular
- the justification of his idea,
his literary style, his knowledge
of human nature, all in one.
Being all steamed up he
wrote Rogers a personal letter,
congratulating both of them on
Rogers heroism, saying that he
looked on him as a son, or the
equivalent, and adding that
there was a job for him in the
bank as long as he lived.
mo doubt if the letter had
been official, if it had even been
typed, someone would have
taken care to supply a couple of
good loopholes; but the Great
High-Up actually dashed it off in
his own fist. l believe they gave
Rogers E1O0 as well.
Anyway, if he was a go-as-
you-please sort of character be-
fore, he's sunk into total inertia
since. If l ever try to tell him off,
he simply looks down at the
floor and l know exactly what
he's thinking. So, the plan is,
each branch must put up with
him for six months at spell"
This morning, l had to visit
the bank again to make a cash
withdrawal. This time the new
cashier was polishing his nails.
They seemed in need of it.

Passengers of Princess
 Kathleen Plan Damage Suits Against C.P. Line

SAN FRANCISCO, R- About 200 passengers of the cruise ship Princess Kathleen, which struck a reef and sank off Alaska Sept. ', are planning a legal battle against the Canadian Pacific Steamship Co.
 Aroused by the company's move in Seattle federal court to limit damage claims to $7O,0OO, they laid plans to sue for many times that amount.
 One passenger said he planned to seek $65,OOO damages for shock, loss of property, humilia- tion, vacation time lost and gen. eral damages" He predicted the total demanded in suits might run to more than million dollars.
 The passengers raised $2,000 to hire admiralty lawyers. They formed the Kathleen Survivors Committee"
 On Dec. g, the steamship com pany filed petition in Seattle federal court for exoneration of responsibility for the disaster and to limit liability to $69,5O4.15.
 The passengers said Sunday that figure just about covers the rebate on the cruise tickets-and doesn't take into consideration loss of baggage, clothing, money and other effects.
 George Bader, San Francisco steel company executive who was elected survivors committee chair man, received enthusiastic ap- plause when he said:

Macarthur Ascribes Desertions To
 Lack Of Faith In Trr1man's Policies

NEW YORK, RAGen. Douglas MacArthur, in some of the bitter est terms he has directed at Presi- dent Truman, says the admins tration's policies are to blame if American military assertions are excessive.
 The feud between the chief ex- ecutive and he man he fired as US. and U.N. Far Eastern com mander reached new peak over the weekend on the question of assertions which lately have run to 47,000 since the start of the Korean war.
 Columnist Doris Fleeson of the Bell Syndicate said on Friday that Truman blamed politically-inspir- ed attacks on his Korean war pol icy for assertions. She said Tru- man called Macarthur "insubor- dinate" and asserted he had "set a bad example"
 Saturday night Macarthur re- piled:
 If such assertions are indeed excessive, despite the recent de- nials of the Defense Department, they may more realistically be ascribed to a lack of faith in President Truman's policies of appeasement :. :"
 Macarthur in the 400 = word statement termed some of the Presidents attacks on him as ''peurile'' :. unjust and arbit- rary'' .-. obvious spleen" completely untrue" .. ''un- founded and, indeed, venemous."
 The general concluded his state ment in these words: Perhaps, too, he CTruman is animated by pique at the President-elect's in terest in ascertaining my views on Korea"
