The rumor in Washington at
this time was that Mr.. Hoover
had lost his strongest supporter
when Attorney General Frank
Murphy left the Department OF
Justice to become an Associate
Justice on the Supreme Court
and that the new, liberal At
torney General Mr.. jackson,
would put the handouts on Mr..
Hoover and the FBI at the first
opportunity.
The storm broke against the
IFBI on February 6. Special
agents arrested 10 men and q
woman in Detroit and a man in
Milwaukee who had been in
dicted on charges of conspiring
to recruit volunteers for the
Spanish Loyalist army. All OF
them were either admitted Com

by the Justice Department.

FAMOUS FABLES
BY E. E. EDGAR

BLACKMAIL: The late
Charles Macarthur was still in
his teens when he worked as a
reporter for a Chicago news
service. Fired with ambition. he
was a glutton for work. He put in
so many hours every day that he
did not have time to spend his
modest salary.
This soon came to the attcn-
ton Of the editor, who had plen-
ty Of time. He began to borrow
money regularly from the young
innocent. Before long. he was
deeply IN debt.
After several months passed
Macarthur came UP with an
idea for a feature story. When
he showed the manuscript to the
editor, the latter pushed 1t
aside.
ITS a good story" said Mac
Arthur" and I insist that you
have it printed"
you WHAT" roared the editor
ok" said the reporter. III
that's the way you want 1t, give
me the money you owe me-"
Now just a minute" The edi-
tors tone changed instantly
Zone thing has nothing to dc
with"
He saw the look in MacAr-
thurs eyes and stopped.
you win,' he said.
The story was printed. On the
strength Of 1t, Macarthur landed
a job as a reporter on Chicago's
Heading daily.

There is a rather simple solution
to his problem. He should be-
come an expert dancer and he
should also try to learn to play
a musical instrument. This will
afford him endless pleasure and
will make him a real social asset
at patries. Girls who enjoy dane
ing with him will get to know
him and will be glad to date
him.
Ateam like Ralph and Cell can
become spark plugs of social
activities for their crowd by ar
ranging lots of parties and oc-
casions on which young people
lgo out in groups. They should
not try to force the time when
Ralph finds a girl he can pair
of with. That will come natur-
ally.

lorn. Then come the sleepless
nights and the worrisome days.
Then come-if they are not
careful-the unbearable, long,
Indian-flle Of deadening days
that try their souls and patience.
The answer seems evident;
satisfactory and fulfilled living
during the fifties and over does
not come by luck. You need to
practice for it to become pro-
ficient in living. You can no
more do a good job in being
happy without preparation than
you can play the piano or violin
by just wishing it,"
Prepare Early
Prepare yourself while you are
in your 20s, 30s and 40s; begin
your practicing then. Get some
hobbies and outside interest
that are both absorbing and also
helpful to other people. Get away
from thinking only of yourself
You will find that you will slide
out of bed every morning with
expectancy and excitement II
you have developed "selfiess in
terests."
I tell people who keep popping
sedatives and stimulants into
their mouths: "Clean out your
medicine cabinets. Discard the
'His'n' and 'her'n' private stocks
of nerve balm. We are fast be-
coming a race of Grade 2
hypochondriacs. Better latch on
to some absorbing interest. It's
all right to travel: but con-
tinually running away is not
the answer unless you have
something vital to return home
to. The only way to fight bore
dom is to actually displace II
with a fully planned, absorbing
"a hours"
For you readers who swallow
daily rations Of "pepper-uppers, y
'mood-mellowers" and "old-
fashioned sedatives," have this
advice: try to break the obnox-
ious and dangerous habit today
Resolve to make your adjust
ment to a new way Of life like
men and women-not like mice
First, recognize that the prob.
lem OF boredom is not a simple
one. Then muster enough good
sense and will to overcome IL.
Too many people live their last
10 or 20 years as If they were
just hanging around waiting tc
die.

SECURITY FOR YOU
BY RAY HENRY

What do you do about Fedora
income tax when you reach 6!
and start drawing pensions ant
other retirement payments?
The Internal Revenue Servic,
has a ready answer: 1t all de,
Ipends on the kind of retirement
payments you're getting.
There are four rules which
complete the IRS's answer:
/. If you have a retirement in.
come-including any money from
working, from pensions or othel
Ipayments-of less than $1,000 {
year, you don't have to pay any
tax. In fact, you don't even have
to file a tax return. If you anc
your wife both have reached 81
and have a combined income Of
$4,000 you don't have to pay any
tax. However, If either of you ha.
an income of more than $1,000
you must file a return.
2. If you're IS or over and arr
receiving Social Security pay.
ments, Railroad Retirement pen.
Sions or veterans pension or com.
Ipensation, there is no income ia,
to pay on them. They're tax free
II you have income from other
sources, such as insurance. en-
ployment, ETC., which make Il
necessary for you to file a ia,
return, you don't even have tC
enter your veterans, Social Sc.
curity or Railroad Retirement
payments on the return.
Depends on Contribution
3. If you're receiving an an.
nuity or pension-such a a com.
pany pension-you have to re.
port the entire amount as in.
come II you didn't contribute to
the fund from which the pen.
sion or annuity is paid.
4. If you're receiving a retired
employees pension or an annuity
BASED on contributions made by
both you and your employer, part
OF the pension or annuity is tax.
able and part Of 1t isn't.
There are two rules on this.
The first rule applies to q
pension or annuity from which
you'll receive in payments within
three years after you retire an
amount at least equal to what
you contributed.
If you fall under this rule. ali
the payments you receive are moi
considered taxable until you've
been paid an amount equal 70
what you put into the pension
After chat, you must report the
payments on your return and
pay any required tax on them.
For example: Suppose you're
now getting o pension Of 500 O
month and your total contribu-
ton while you worked was ST.
500. At the 500 a month rate
you'll receive a total Of $500 in

subcommittee on appropriations
on January 5 to make his annual
report on how the FBI was
spending its share of the tax
