Home Plan
Rejected

1t was bad day for appli-
cants at the East Cleveland
Board of Zoning Appeals meet
ing Tuesday.
Out of three requests present
ed to the board, two were denied
and one continued.
Refused permission for an so-
ditional roomer was Miss Rebec-
ca Burchett, owner of a single
family dwelling at 1870 Idlevood
ave.
Tbs board contended that nine
occupants in the house were
enough.
Also turned down we're Mr..
and Mrs. Anthony Bondi who
were requesting permission TO
construct a pre-fabricated house
behind their present home al

The board rejected this re
quest because the proposed con-
struction did not comply with
present zoning regulations
Among the requirements re-
ported lacking was the mini
mum 20-foot driveway ease
ment.
City Engineer Malcolm s.
Douglas stated, The accessible
ty to the new building in case
of fire is questionable"
Also, the building department
has not yet approved the type
of pre- fabricated building
planned.
Proposed plans indicate that
the framework of the home
would be of steel, with the fin
ish of the exterior and interior
applied at the site.
The request of MIR. and Mrs
Frank Passaralla. owner Of
home at 1892 lakewood was con-
tinued until the next zoning
board meeting. The couple Is
seeking transfer of a rooming
license for nine occupants.
The continuance resulted when
the board was informed the for
mer owner would still live at the
residence. This person, Edward
F. Glavac, presently retains the
license for the dwelling.
Board members stated they
wanted time to discuss the leg
ality of transferring q license

idence to one not residing in the

Tucson Truck Drivers Rebel Against Hoffa's Strongarm Tactics

TUCSON, Ariz. H, = A band of Tucson truck drivers has re- belled against James R, Hoffa's Teamster Union, accusing their local officers of strongarm tacts.
 Well live with it until they're out" said Wayne Hobson about officers in LGcaI S1G
 Hobson said, "this things been brewing about three years. We don't even know if we have any money. They won't even show us the books. We're determined to get loose," Hobson said.
 George Paterson, another of the group, added: 'sHoffa's strongarm tactics have been passed down to the local level where we can no longer accept such domination. We want to be independent or join the AFL-CIO."

The visibility is almost zero and ahead is sharp curve.
 Suddenly. beneath your wheels, the road says: Slow down!'' It does this by sending sound and low vibrations through your automobiles frame. You get the message and cut your speed.
 This road warming system called rumble strip" cut accidents in test areas by nearly tvo-thirds. It is made chiefly from a new kind of plastic developed by Standards scientists <. one so rugged that if wifi stand up to the poanding of the heaviest traffic.
 The rumble strip is part of Standards continuing interest in traffic safety, which includes driver training, seat belts in Company cars, educational films for schools, and widespread distribution of safety tips.
 The tough plastic which makes the rumble strip possible is only one of a wide variety that our scientists are creating to help manufacturers bring you new and better products.

Operation Abolition

The court specifically noted there
were AMPLE GROUNDS FOR
CONVICTION IN EACH CASE.
Every attorney knows that dis
missal of criminal charges does
not necessarily involve finding
of innocence. Attempts to as
cribe judicial approval to the
scandalous acts Of the rioters are
in direct contradiction to the
findings Of the court. The court
was careful to avoid having such
a construction placed on its
action.
Operation Abolition is the
best argument in years to bring
home to the American people the
proximity and dangers of the
communist conspiracy right in
our own back yard. The Com
munist Party is engaged in max
ing an about effort to smear the
film and brand it unfair and dis
tOrted.

What Aids The Country

WANT to know what's really the mat
" ter with the country?
The Progress, a weekly newspaper
published way down south in Easley,
South Carolina, has the answer.
The country wouldn't be in such a
mess today if the Indians had adopted
more stringent immigration laws.
We find it extremely difficult to
quarrel with that observation.
Duty: A task we look forward to
with distaste, perform with reluctance
and brag about afterwards.
The penalty people pay for indiffer-
ence to public affairs is often to be
ruled by unqualified and sometimes un-
scrupulous men.

Those who echo the commu-

A word of advice: although
Aristotelian logic might not be
used to prove the following state
ment, l offer it as a good guide
in these days and times:
If it walks like a duck, talks
like a duck, smells like a duck,
looks like duck and acts like a
duck = the chances are it is a
duck.
For all practical purposes, it
might as well be duck. If one is
opposed to the political ideas of
ducks, one would do well to learn
to recognize other animals that
echo them.

Cuba Folly

THE utter folly of our policies lead
ing up to, and staging, the recent Gu
ban invasion are spotlighted again by
the admission in Miami, by a govern
ment Official that the Central INTEL
igence Agency has been paying the Gu
ban military corps.
The admission came because the CHA
decided to end payments to the Cubans.
These trainees received notices of ter
mination of their pay on plain station
cry, with no government identification
on the letters.
Now it is dragged out in the open, and
admitted that we recruited an army
and set up bases in Louisiana, Florida
and Guatemala, and paid these anti
Castro Cubans with GA money.
The farce is only increased by our
clumsy effort to cut off the pay to
these "hired soldiers" by blank-sta-
tionery letters They are now being en-
couraged to enter the armed services
The more one studies the United
States policies concerning Cuba in re-
cent months and years the more in
credible the whole thing becomes. Our
bungled invasion of Cuba has cost US
the friendship of many of the Cuban
people, despite what we might want to
believe, for no people take kindly to in
vasion from a big, foreign neighbor,
even if they are not too pleased with
their own governments.

that did used it largely for emer-
gencies. Today. teen-agers think
nothing of calling friend some
distance away on a rainy day
for want of something to do. In
fact, am told that the principal
users are the teen-agers.
Since the newly aroused in

school committees are spending
more money on textbooks and
equipment. This also applies to
school buildings and. unfortu-
nately, to competitive school

the large universities have made
great error in building huge
stadiums which put competitive
athletics ahead of studies.
Effect Upon Investments
AS my column is read mostly
by small investors. they should
try to use their savings to the
best advantage by considering
the above facts in connection
with their investments. The econ
omy should experience con-
tinued husky demnad from teen
ayers for several years more.
However. some industries are
not faring so well at the hands
Of teen-agers. For example
young investors just entering the
market regard railroad securi-
ties as "out-of-date." A railroad
president attributes the railroad
and bus passenger service de-
ficits to the fact that teen
ayers insist on going everywhere

Babson Discusses Teen-Agers And Business

BABSON PARK. MASS, Aug.
l4-Most people have not been
giving enough serious thought to
the relationship of teen ayers
to BUSINESS. Too often teen-agers
are looked upon as a nuisance,
and many of us sort of hold our
breath waiting until they grow
up and have learned to take care
of themselves. A study of popu-
lation statistics shows, how
ever. that we have been wrong
in taking this attitude.
What Population Figures Show
have divided the census fig
ures into three groups. first,
the "teen-age" group. between
Is and "a; second. the produc-
tive group. between 25 and SIS.
and third. the older-age group.
To my surprise l find that the
teen-age group has increased so
per cent since the previous cen
sus. The older-age group has in
creased Is per cent. However,
those between the ages of Is and
SIS, who are earning money by
producing goods and services,
have just about held their own.
The bulge in the teen-age seq
ment has far reaching effects
upon business. Also, more teen
ayers today are seeking higher
education after graduation from
high school than ever before.
For young people in this age
group. any income earned is
likely to be small; but their
needs are enormous. Hence,
the longer period spent in class
rooms places a heavier burden
upon parents who are footing
the bills.

All of which brings us around to the
Cuban refugee program. The Cubans
have communist dictator. Many Of
them support him. While we many not
like that, and while many Cubans may
not, and while we can work in every
way possible to undermine communism
and that government, it is not up to the
United States to absorb all the dis
gruntled Cubans who want to come to

sion. On more occasions, how
ever, the holder has reduced the
office to his own level {.
But certainly we cannot ex-
pect to have full citizen respect
for law and our courts, so long
as members of the public have
their present cynicism about
judicial appointments and poll
tics. Citizens have, not unjustly,
come to regard judicial appoint
ments as matters of political
patronage, just like appoint
ments Of local postmasters."
Today, for the first time in
many years. federal judges rep
resent a fairly even division as
between Republicans and Demo-
Gratis. The United States likely
would be best served in the long
run if balance of that sort be
maintained, regardless of the
party in power.
Pres. Kennedy would do well
to heed the words of his former
adversary, Richard M. Nixon,
also written a year ago during
the presidential campaign

thing like that suffered by Russia or
Germany
The result of the war; however, or
one of them, was that the United States
emerged as the leading nation Of the
world, and the leading force for demo-
cracy in a dangerous postwar world.
But back in 1915, at about this time,
many of us were naive enough to think
that there would be fifteen, twenty, or
even thirty years of comparable peace,
with democratic forces gaining the as
cendancy everywhere.
This was great dream, and the
dream of the boys who fought and died
in World War II, and unfortunately it
has not come true. Even so, that August
day in 1915, when the war had come to
an end, will always be special memory
in the hearts of many, and will always
be one on the most historic dates in
American history.

the most is food. Teen-agers are

shops, ice cream parlors, and
confectionery stores.
Next to food, l would say that
clothing lines are profiting most
from the teen-age group. Young
people like to dress up and look

ABOUT this time sixteen years ago,
= August IA, 1915, the greatest war
ever fought on this earth came to an
end. After seeing two atomic bombs
dropped on their homeland, the Jap
anese decided it was time to surrender
Internationally, and they did SO, as of
August IA, 1915.
That ended war which began on
the morning of September l, 1889,
when Adolf Hitler's armies invaded Po-
land in Europe, some 5000 miles away.
Or, it might be said that it ended war
which began in 1887, when the Jap
anese and Chinese clashed and began
their struggle which was to last for
eight years.
The Germans and the British fought
from 1899 until May 8, 1915 - or a
period Of almost six years. The United
States did not become involved until
December 7, 1941, so that American
participation in this war lasted only
something over three years. But, un-
like the case in World War |. American
participation was undoubtedly decisive
