With an eye to the forthcoming

Cadillac dependabty is so extraordinary that
the car is virtually free from all but the purely
routine requirements of service
A Cadillac stretches gallon of gasoline over
so many miles that it is actually the rival of much
smaller, lighter cars in this regard.
And Cadillac, according to authentica ted re-
sale records, will retain its value over the years
better than any other automobile built in the land.

dispersion of aircraft.
2. More money for research
and development.
3. Speeding up the building OF

Both Gen. Spaatz and Ad-

vantages.
Gen. Spaatz indicated the
Soviets are ahead of this coun-
try in submarine forces and de-
clared:

adequately prepared to meet
the threat of a combined air
power and submarine attack"

He recalled the devastation
brought by 30 or 40 German
submarines along the American
coast during World War II and

The testimony of Gen. Spaatz

military setup and suggested a

Gen. Spaatz and Admiral

before the Senate Armed Serv-

No specific figure was given
on the number of American sub
marines but Senator Symington
said it was hundreds" less than
the Soviets have.
Gen. Spaatz added that he
would rather have "a few too

planes. He also suggested that
work on developing an inter-
continental balllstic missile be
given the highest priority.
Admiral Carney, who left his
naval post last summer, did not
specifically discuss the Russian
submarine menace. However. he
said that the Soviets possess a
navy "of such strength that it
cannot be ignored" and one
strong enough now to challenge
"the supremacy of the seas"

A moderate 70 cases were list
ed for trial in Municipal court
Monday morning. But what the
cases lacked in number, they
made up in general interest.
Not at all unusual, but quite in
teresting was the case of Willie
Mae Sisron of 1888 NV 9Th ave.,
who was charged with disorderly
conduct by using profanity and
creating a disturbance. The Incl
dent occurred about 10 pm. Fri
day at 1647 NV 9th ave. Mrs.
Mae Beulah Williams was the
chief complainant against Miss
Sisron.
Mrs. Williams told the court
that Miss Sisron was going with
her brother who is married. The
brothers wife didn't know about
the relationship but she soon
found it out. Miss Sisron sus-
pected that Mrs. Williams had
squealed to her brothers wife
but Mrs. Williams declared that
she did not tell anything although
she admitted she know what was
happening all the while.
An argument arose between the
two over the relationship. Some
vile profanity was alleged to have
been used by Miss Sisron. The
police were called and arrested
Miss Sisron.
In court six witnesses testified
in the case - four against Miss
Sisron and two for her. Accord
ing to the testimony, Miss Sis
ron's brother, who lives at the
same home where the incident
occurred, got into the argument
on the side of his sister, and
made several serious threats Of
what he was going to do to any
one who bothered her.
The case boiled down to one
of two women and one man -
but as usual in cases of this kind,
the man in the case did not show
up in court at the trial. He found
it convenient to be at his work
said the judge, and to let his
wife, and Miss Sisron battle it
out among themselves.
Judge Johnson, himself, said he
passed the scene of the incident
Friday night just as the arrest was
being made and saw the large
crowd that had gathered there.
Following a long drawn-out
hearing, and some very sane adj
vice from the judge to all par
ties concerned, the judge fined
Miss Sisron $50 or 20 days in
Jail.

disposed Of were
