There must be something done
for the alcoholics in Tabor City.
There are few people who don't
see the problem but there are
fewer who give it second
thought Seems like the world
looks at these problems and SaSS.
so what, let somebody else worry
about it,
Now let's take the case of a
man who only recently returned
to Tabor City after being away
for many years. He had been in
no trouble during his absence
from Columbus county and had
held job and his Responsibility.
He came back to Tabor City and
some old cronies offered him a
drink. He took one, then another
and another and was locked up
for public drunkenness. He paid
a court cost and two days later
he was back in Jail again. He paid
again and a week later he was
behind the bars the third time.
This time he worked out the
court cost on the city streets and
went three weeks without being
drunk again. Then he had another
drink put under his nose by an
old crony and back he goes to the
clink again.
Now term on the chain gang
won't cure him. There is consid-
cradle doubt that it ever cures
any such victims. It only takes
them away from whiskey for "a
while. But it puts them still furth-
er away from respectability and
in many instances makes them
worse cronic DRINKS than ever
before when they do get back
home.

They need encouragement and
they need help. Only an aroused

governments decided that it
would be politically wise to CO.
exist with the Communists.
After all, "la belle ct grande
RuSsie," as Gen. Charles de
Gaulle described that wartime
ally, had contributed much to
the defeat of the hated Ger
mans. Thus up to the spring
of 1947 members of the Com
muniSt Party were included in
the cabinets and Maurice
ThoreZ. Moscow'S mouthpiece
in France, was Vice Premier.
During those two years
Thorez and his Communist
Subordinates took good care to
infiltrate the middle and lower
echelons of the government
with their best agents and
many sympathizers. They were
placed in arms factories, navy
yards and offices of the army,
navy and air departments.
Particular care also was taken
to put them in the Partisan
police and the Surete Ma
tionale. No real purge has
taken place in the last seven
years. The balance of power in
Parliament is such, with the
Communists holding about 100
seats. that the non-Communist
administrations which have
succeeded each other at an
average of nine-month inter-

shut their eyes to these in
