Anger Over Trieste

President Tito of YugoSlavia is making more
sound than sense in his threat to send Yugoslav
troops into Zone of the Trieste territory when
ever Italian forces enter the area. It is how
ever. an alarming threat and the United States
and Britain should do their utmost to make the
YugoSlav dictator modify his currently violent
attitude toward the Trieste problem or to under
stand fully what dangerous consequences might
result from such an attitude.
The decision to turn over full jurisdiction of
Zone to Italy is part of the American British
plan to withdraw their troops. Presumably,
such withdrawal would be gradual process,
with Italian forces arriving at approximately
the same times and in the same strength as
British-Amercan units depart. For a time,o
under such program, there would be troops
of three nationalitieS in Zone A and any effort
by Yugoslav troops to undertake forceful oc-
cupation of parts of Zone A would carry the
danger of involving more than the two disput-
ing countries. -.
In view of the deep feeling which the Trieste
issue always has engendered between italy and
its Balkan neighbors. it is not surprising
that violent emotions have been aroused in Bel
grade by the current British-American proposal.
Actually, the population OF. Zone is 80 per cent
Italian-as Marshal Tito admits in his protest
note-and no convincing case has been made
that Italian rule would include oppression of
the 20 per cent minority. Some pledge of rec
ignition of the minority rights, however, might
we'll be offered by Rome at this time Indeed,
soft words hold much greater promise of bring
ing settlement of this controversy than does
sword-rattling from either side.

Recent dispatches in The Star have
dealt with two subjects which seem,
on the surface. to be unrelated but
which are actually intertwined and
can spell great hardship, higher costs
or even financial ruin for American
businessmen.
The first story dealt with the newly

Labor Relations Board and the vex-
ing problem facing them of plant-wide
versus craft recognition of unions as
collective bargaining agents for en-

Comic Book Menace

Like forest fire spreading unchecked
through dry timber, comic books have
spread through our country. Parents
and teachers should take a little time
to look into this type of literature. Not
only is the grammar utterly bad, the
choice of words corrupt, the drawing
and coloring entirely ruinous to any
refinement of child's artistic sense.
but more important, the teachings are
often vulgar and almost never appeal
ing to the best that is in growing boy
or girl.
The good teachings of church, school
and home are often made for naugnt
by the teachings of well-read comic
books. Our children need all the help
they can get to keep their standards of
living decent and on the highest level
in this tense and difficult war-mad
world. What are we thinking of that
we permit them to feed their minds on
destructive material?
Between IL and Is million copies of
comic books are being sold to American
children every month. They read them

turvy and rather unchristian world.

GreenIeuse Tragedy

What ca the public do to protect
home and family? According to The
Star, one of the alleged abductors of
Bobby Greenlease was sentenced to five
years.in the Missouri State Penitentiary
for robbery. He started serving time
January 20, 1852, and was paroled April
IA, 1853.
The State. law enforcement agencies
and the politicians are letting the pub
lie down by paroling convicts before
they serve their full time or by made
quately sentencing them in, the first
place. HI. Case.
1t is very unfortunate that the mother
and father of Bobby Greenlease must
suffer because civilization in the United
States has not reached the stage where
it is considered criminal act to possess
revolver. People will endeavor to as
crihe this latest murder to a different
reason but primarily it was committed
because the weapon was handy.

HOLLYWOOD R-H you want to
get a man, wear red and purple.
Of course, the knack of landing
male is somewhat more COM
plicated than that. But designer
Edith Head advises that red and
purple are colors. which are the.
greatest Stinulants to romance.
Red denotes a quiet, smolder-
ing kind of sex, she remarked.
Purple is the more explosive, pas
sionate color. Put red and purple
together in the same outfit-and

Miss Head is a petite brunette

SO she won't take the play away
from the glamor girl she dresses.
At any rate, she is all hepped up
on this color business, and she say
it based on science, not fancy.
"Some of us designers attended
color institute recently" she ex-
planned. 1--WE were addressed by a
doctor who treats mental patients
at veterans hospitals. He told us
that colorS very definitely play a
part in our temperament. He
found that his patients reacted vi
olently to certain colors and were
soothed by others.
"Red and purple incite sex In
stincts. Natural colorS-the brown
of the earth, grey of stone and
green of foliage-are restful to the
mind. The Oppressive colors are
dark brown and muddy grey, such
as you might find under rocks.
Thus doctors waiting rooms
are most effective in green or
some other restful color. The doc
tor told US never to disregard il
when someone says that he or
she can't stand a certain color.
That color probably does have a
bad reaction on Them"

Here Is One Way to Treat
Problem Of Sugeing Doors

The proper manner in which
to remedy a sagging door is to
close it completely and drive
wedges beneath the off-hinge
corners until the bottom is
lacked up where it belongs. The
next step is to cut two lengths
Of 1-inch-by-6-inch wood strips
and screw them solidly and dag
onally across the door. Nails are
liable to pull out to some degree
when the strain is returned by
pulling out the wedges. but
screws are in there solidly.
The lower end of the braces
should be set securely into the
side member of the door which
is attached to the hinges and the
upper end of the brace should be
screwed into the top horizontal
member of the door.
Along with the above bracing
action, the hinges should be
frightened securely and if the
screws seem loose in the wood
the hinges should be reset in a
new location.

While most modern garages
are equipped with overhead
doors, most of the houses built
more than 10 or Is years ago
have detached garages equipped
with swinging doors.
Any one owning such a ga
rage is aware of the fact that
the doors, no matter how well
built in the first place. gradually
sag with age until they scrape
on the floor, making it difficult
to open or close them tightly,
and gradually working UP a
deep groove on the garage floor,
Naturally, with continued pull
ing and pushing, the entire door
assembly becomes loosened.
Many homeowners take care
of this problem by saving off
an inch or so of the lower edge
Of the door at the off-hinge
corners. But that is a most un-
professional piece of carpentry.
This is particularly so when the
correct and sound cure for the
problem is much more simple
and much less actual work.
