Positive refutation OF the theology

came last week in the Gold Coast
financial report Of Prime Minister
Kwame Nkrumah. who has been
at the rcins now for a full year
The report revealed that re-
cepita OF revenue collections
amounted to more that $4,000
900, while expenditures were held
to 500. 900 900, leaving the Gold
Coast government with $l6,-
OO0. 900 surplus for the fiscal year
ending March 81.
In the prime minister's favor.
also. excellent financial control
WAS shown In the report on the
fact that while expenditures ex-
ceeded the estimated budget by
some $40. 900. income in excess Of
the original estimates accounted
for the $4,000 900.
The strong financial position Of
the government shows an excess
Of assets over liabilities Of $50
600. 900

Do you make a game out of getting

Many confirmed city persons add to
their tan by taking advantage OF daily
opportunities.
One of these is the trip downtown

Many riders prefer the shady side.
but not the confirmed suntan expert.
He or she likes the sunny side, ana
for a good reason.
Half an hour twice a day means an
hour in the sun.
The best part of it is that the
window is open. and one gets the real
thing on the skin, not diluted shine
through glass.
1t is true that at the time most
persons travel, early in the morning.
and late in the afternoon, the sun rays
are not at their peak.
Still, they have plenty Of burn in

One must be a bit subtle, of course.

A Stamp to Fight Cancer

Immediately after the death of Senator
Robert A. Taft number of appeals were made
to Postmaster General Arthur E. Summerfield
for authorization of a postage stamp in his
memory. Many precedentS for such postal
label exist. There have been commemorative
issues for Alfred E. Smith, DR.. George Washing
ton Carver, Thomas A. Edison, William Allen
White, Harlan FiSke Stone, Will Rogers, Joel
Chandler Harris, Samuel Gompers and other
eminent Americans who served their country
helpfully without having achieved the presi-
dency or high military rank. Historians of the
Nations postal system promptly approved the
suggestion for similar recognition of the late
Senator from Ohio.
But now new aspect of commemoration
has developed. The American Cancer Society,
including its District of Columbia branch, has
petitioned Mr.. Summerf1eld to bring out the
proposed Taft stamp specifically in aid of the
crusade against cancer. other countries have
employed postal paper to the same and. The

hot enough certainly, but bit more
will not hurt you.
Women can make game OF suntan
at odd moments better than men,
simply because they have more skin
exposed, being sensible creatures.
X
Even waiting for bus may be made
the occasion for suntanning, If the
rider gets to the stop little ahead OF
time.
Instead of standing in the shade, he
waits in the sun.
That does it. That is all.
Usually one has to wait far longer
for bus than he figured on, anyway
He might as well get something out
of the experience besides the usuai
crouch,
Walking around town. even going for
lunch, may add bit of suntan, If the
walker goes on the sunny side Of the
street.
He will bump into fewer people there,
and this may please him, too. since
the modern city pedestrian is both
careless and lazy. IF you don't believe
this, ask any traffic cop)
The sum total of these small sun
nings adds up to a deeper tan and
greater satisfaction and happiness.
That many city persons do something
like this, even if they do not realize
it, is shown by the many tanned per-
sons one sees everywhere. They
simply can't all have been away, or

If there is a collision. they insist on

from the popular use Of such words as
