Bluffton, Ohio.
Dear Sir,
What has happened to our once
beautiful MAIN STREET is not
good and the people of Bluffton
do not like it. MAIN street is
usually the principal street of
any community, and the street
should have priority in the mat
ter of maintenance and repair.
1t Is most always the center of
business activity, and visitors to
a town get their most important
impression of the city by the
way MAIN street is kept clear
and repaired. We now have a
COUNTRY LANE in place of
MAIN STREET. II is true that
there were a few cracks in Main
street which could have been re-
paired at a small cost, and they
should have been, but by no
means in the manner in which
ii was done. The worst is yet to
come, for if the surplus stone is
not removed before heavy rains.
the stone will be washed down
into the sewers, and when they
start to back up, then the town
will really have a king SIZE"
headache. Main street is curbed
almost the full length and the
stone can only go one place.

This week we would like to
pay tribute to the editor OF
Bluffton's leading weekly news
paper, who managed to give
away his key to the shop, then
lock himself out on the busiest
night of the week. He had to
make a red-faced, house-to-house
canvass of the employees to find
a key.
At least the bank employees
had the sense to lock them
selves in with all that money.
IN REPORTING the end of
the passenger service on the

Apparently determined to keep
a Robinson in office, Toms son
Hugh was nominated and is run

Use the thinnest louvres

Dear Miss b. M. X:
There have been curtain
changes, no doubt about 1t,
what with dacron, nylon,

think the real reason for
their popularity is their easy
care.
But if you have always
wanted organdy curtains.
there are still plenty in the
stores. And they still look
delightful when they are kept
crisply fresh, with their wide
ruffles foaming at the win
dow.
So by all means. have them
if you want them. Your
friends may get to like your
"old hat" idea. Show them
that you have a mind of your
own!

(AP).--Nationalist China's Of
fetal Central News Agency re-
ported today that more than
10000 persons rioted near Nam
king March II. killing more
than so Chinese Communists
who refused to Join them.
The report said Communist
troops killed more than 200
peasants with machine guns
and arrested more than 400
others. 8
The peasants repeatedly were
ini1amed by the death from ex-
haustion of a 78-year-old
woman assigned to care for IL
children in a commune at the
Yangtze River town of Kiangtu.
Central News said its in
formation had filtered out of
the mainland. There was no

ton. E~ A
The agency also reported
these other demonstrations
against Communist rule in
March:
On March Z. a Communist
mess officer in q commune at
Naman, As miles northeast of
Quemoy. forced a nalf-cooked
sweet potato into the mouth
Of a 75-year-old peasant. His
four sons and i've grandsons

Two Communist party func-
tionaries who came to question

clash four Communist party
workers were killed.

SAN MARCOS, Tex, May rs
tAP).--Senator johnson. Dem
ocrat Of Texas. proposes that
the United States Invite the
many nations Of the great nom
Communist world to q meeting
at the summit here in the new
world"
The Senate Democratic
Leader said such a session
would provide a vivid contrast
with Soviet Communist leaders
constant demands for a summit
conference Of the few powers
who won World War II.
In a speech yesterday be-
fore the graduating class Of
Southwest Texas State Teach
ers College, where he won a
degree in 1880, Senator John
son said the present foreign
ministers conference in Geneva
marks the end of a "long era
of illusion in world affairs"
He said this illusion is "that
the fate of the world can be
left in the hands Of those ma
tons which formed the VIC
torious alliance of World War
n
Kremlin demands for a con-
ference of only q few powers
is part Of the Soviet grand
design for world conquest" he
said.
The totalitarian leaders Of
the Kremlin look upon the
summit as the throne of the
world" he continued, land it
is their intent to wrestle with
the nations of the West-one
by one-for the right to wear
the crown"
Instead Of accepting this
theory, Senator Johnson said
this country must demonstrate
I'VE believe that there is at the
summit of mankind's hopes. a
kingdom of freedom in which
all men and all nations may
live at peace as equals"
where the Soviets have
sought a meeting of the few,
let us initiate a meeting of the
many" he said. and then pro-
posed the conference Of free
nations in this part of the
world.
Senator Johnson said the OBJ
Ivious Soviet aim at summit
meetings is to implant the seed
of division and decentralization
which will undermine the spirit
of Western unity"
He pointed out that since
World War. II alliances were
formed more than % nations
have come into being"
"Old continents have burst
forth to new promise. he said.
Lands which were weak when
the war came to an end have
now grown strong"

DESPERATE.
Being attracted to older,
married men is not unusual
for young girls. AS long as
they do not pursue the at
traction no harm is done;
but if they do they are on
dangerous ground. Would
you deliberately put your
hand into boiling water? or
course not! Yet. in my opin-
ion, even that might not be
as fool-hardy as becoming
involved with a married man.
In many cases burns heal
scar-free, but affairs with
married men often leave per-
manent scars-not only for
the two guilty people but for
the innocent victims, the
mans wife and children.
You see, in our society. we
must all learn to control our
emotions. You might be
hungry but you surely would
not steal food from a baby.
You could be broke but would
YOU resort to picking pockets?
You need not let your emo
tions run away" with you
and become involved in an
affair which could be dis
astrous. If, or when. you
find yourself becoming in
terested in a married man
my advice is to run. not walk
to the nearest exit!
