SOCIALISM IS SOCIALISM

In column printed in the New York World -Tele- gram, Lawrence Fertig said: Socialism is socialism matter how it is dressed up to appear different.
 The occasion for that apt observation is the debate in and out of Congress to whether $4OO 100000 hydroelectric project the Niagra River shall be undertaken by the federal government, the State of New York; or a group of five tax-paying publicly regulated utility companies which ready to go ahead with the job
 At the end of his discussion Mr. Fertig emphasized the main principle when he wrote:
 Tn the case of Niagara there is question of navigation, flood control any other factor except the development and sale of power The power indus try everyone knows, is outstanding example of efficient industry that has met it's public respon- abilities well Advocates of government control of various projects-Whether state federa-generally try to trump up a case based on some delinquency or apparent failing in the industry they want to take over But in the of power, they haven't got leg to stand There is sound reason why private enterprise should be further restricted by the entrance of governnent-dominaed monopolies in this in any similar field'
 Yes-socialism is socialism, matter what kind of government is responsible And socialism, mod history grrnly proves inevitably leads to com munsm and the destruction of all liberty-civil as well as economic individual as well corporate
 That's why every citizen has a personal stake in what happens at Niagara-and everywhere else where socialism is being urged

Retrial With Open Hearings Ordered For Playboy Jelke

NEW YORK, R-The convic- ton of Minot F. Mickey) Jelke on charges of compulsory prostitu- tion was reversed by the appellate division Tuesday and his retrial ordered.
 The court held that Jelke, heir to a manufacturing fortune, was deprived of flair and impartial trial' because certain portions of the hearings were closed to the public. The decision was by 3-2 vote.
 Jelke, 24, had been sentenced to serve three to six years on each of two counts of compulsory pros titution. His trial in New York general sessions court was closed to press and public during pre- sentation of the states case.
 Judge Francis l.. Valente at the time said he felt that lurid testi- mOny Of admitted call girls might endanger public morals, and de- clared he felt that he had the legal authority to order this step.
 New York newspapers and press Pservices protested vigorously.
 In reversing Jelke's conviction, the majority of the appellate court ruled:
 ''It becomes apparent that to place in the hands of any court the power in a criminal trial to close the doors of a courtroom during the presentation of the case for one party and open it when the other party undertakes to present his case creates situ- ation that should not be toler- ated."
 Jelke was pictured by the pros ecution as free-living young man who couldn't live within his al- lowance but led girls into prosti- tuition to increase his income.

SMALL FACTOR

Do you ever wonder just how much of each dollar you spend at retail remains in the hands of the chant in the form of profit? Various surveys indicate that many consumers think that 25 percent or even more does just that.
 If you're of them, report of the financial experience of the nations department stores last year will come something of a surprise. Their profit after taxes, averaged "A percent of their sales In 1852 the figure the same.
 Some kinds of stores dealing in staples earn even less. For example, leading food chains often show profits of but cent or a trife more on each dollar that their counters. Retail profits

Capehart Group
 May Be Asked to Take Alaska Probe

WASHINGTON, P-Sen. Cape hart, Indiana Republican, said Tuesday a Senate-House commit tee he heads will take over an investigation of alleged graft in government spending in Alaska if Sen. Mccarthy asks it to do so.
 Mccarthy got permission from his Senate Investigations Sub committee last week to hand the inquiry to some other appropriate congressional group. The subcom- mittee had voted to handle no other inquiries while it is looking into the row between Mccarthy and Pentagon officials.
 A top aide to Mccarthy, dec1in- ing to be named, said he expects the senator will delay a decision flor little while" before official ly handing the inquiry to Cape hart's Defense Production Com mittee

 Capehart said the Senate-Ho committee, set up as a watchdog over the Defense Production Pro- gram, has jurisdiction to conduct the inquiry. He added, however, that Tit will be a couple of weeks" before he could find time to start hearings on any information the Mccarthy group might turn over to him.

Family Tact
Called for
In Divorce
By MurieI Nissen

DEAR MISS NISSEN: Two
years ago I obtained a divorce.
for infidelity, after being married
Is years. My ex-husband i'm
mediately married his paramour.
We have a son. now Is, married.
and the father of a new baby. !
live by myself, have a good job.
and no intention of poaching on
the young people. My son and
daughter-in-law have been &C
cepting invitations from my ex-
husband, which hurts me. Fur
thermore, as friendly relations
seem to have been established
between the two families, I don't
like to visit my son as / don't
want to run into my successor
My daughter-in-law says this at
titude is very silly. She contends
that the modern thing to do is
continue on friendly terms with
all parties concerned in a dl-
vorce. How can I handle this
situation?
VERNA B.
Toct Required
ANSWER: Unfortunately, at
least for your daughter-in-law's
point of view, emotions defy such
categories as modern" or "old-
fashioned" An individual has
feelings, and feelings are liable
to be hurt. Being cauStic and
brittle may cover up hurt, but
won't avoid it. Your daughter-ln-
law is sitting on top of the world
and from her invulnerable posi-
| ton as happy wife and proud
new mother she simply can't APP
preciate your difficulties.
It's natural enough for your
son to want his father to see
the new grandchild. the new
home, and to meet a lovely
daughter-in-laW. But both young
people should have enough sense
to arrange the visits so they
won't clash with yours. Problems
like this beset every family in
volved in divorce and remar-
riage. They must be faced and
handled tactfully. The fact that
you were the innocent party
throughout the entire divorce
proceedings, unfortunately, does
not spare you any of the I'M
pleasant details. Probably it
makes things worse, but it's one
of those jolts in life that must
be taken courageously. I'm sure
your daughter-in-law will fall
in with a suggestion from you
that family visits be judiciously
timed.

Uncle Ruy's Corner

The birds known as parakeets,
or budgies, are the most popular
cage birds Of the present age
They now rank high above the
large size parrots. which were
very common cage birds in past
times.
Parakeets may be described as
little parrots-but what a differ
ence! Instead of the big. clumsy
Polly-want-a-cracker birds. we
now have small, pretty birds
Parakeets seem to be smarter
than parrots and their owners
think they are more pleasant to
have around the house.
Whether or not a parakeet
learns to talk, it is an amusing
bird. It is quick to learn little
tricks and it seldom causes much
bother. If there is any trouble
the owner is likely to laugh about
1t. His bird simply supplies far
more pleasure than trouble
