The profiteer is still on the job. He is holding up the world, a starving cold world.— From “Problems Facing a Striken World,” by Frank Comerford. Europe, unable to pay even the in terest on the billions already loaned to it, now naively asks that Uncle Sam drop another $35,000,000,000 into its bankrupt hopper. Figuring it out per capita, your snare would be approximately $350. Cough up! numn SERVKE-SAWSGS A clipping is going the rounds to the effect that wealth decreases rath er than increases human happiness and that millionaires who smile are rare. Perhaps—but we’ll swap a few of our choicest artistic smiles any day for a million. It takes a smart man to tie a public official these days. No one of ordi nary intelligence could grind out the daily excuses for inaction without re peating. FOR SALE BY MARTIN’S GARAGE, BARNWELL. S. C.
