First, we face the possibility of a third world war caused by the ag gression of Red Russia. Second, there Is the serious dan ger of a run-away inflation that would wreck our entire economy, and each of us as individuals. And third, if we continue our wild and reckless spending we will have national bankruptcy. For leadership In solving all three of these serious problems, we have had nothing but mean ingless words emanating from the theorists with which the President has surrounded him self. Theories that lead only to the welfare state type of so cialism, that appeal to those seeking something for nothing, to the providing of a living for those who do not produce. There has been definite and practical action proposed. In the case of Russia, our state department has been outmaneu- vered and outguessed at every turn. We reduced our armaments as a matter of appeasement. It accom plished nothing. Russia increased the Red army and its demands We catered to the Reds in China and refused to provide the aid voted by congress for the Chinese Nationalists; we sowed the wind and we are now reaping the whirl wind, because of the mistakes, or worse, made by our state depart ment. We now have all of Red China, backed by Red Russia, to fight. President Roosevelt told Win ston Churchill that he could handle Stalin. He did not suc ceed. He only made statements that Stalin accepted as prom ises, and demands that such promises be carried out. Presi dent Truman Indicated by his statement of “Good old Joe" that we had nothing to fear from that kindly old man. Stalin outplayed and outguessed him, and our efforts at appease ment have not softened Stalin’s Red heart. In the matter of inflation prices of commodities go up day by day, or rather the purchasing value of our dollar goes down. Today it is near the forty-cents point. Our policy of supporting wage and pen sion demands is responsible for much of that drop. In addition, we have too much money in the hands of the people. In the past few years, we have not merely added, we have multiplied the amount, and we have not enough commodities. Such a condition creates deprecia tion of our currency. Unless we stop the wild, senseless and unnecessary spending we will land in the bankruptcy court with no way other than repudiation to get us out of “hock." Both the President and congress can be held accountable for the deficit financing that is heading us to bankruptcy. Unless congress provides the money the Presi dent is powerless to spend, bat be can, and does recommend. His recommendations never cover any plan for saving. They are always for spending:. He might save a billion or more a year by cutting out some con siderable portion of the bureau crats employed by the over staffed executive departments. That he will not do. Jobs for those bureaucrats mean votes, and any party Is always in need of votes. He might recommend a less number of dams for pow er and other purposes. We have been able to get along without them for many years, and could continue to do so until we can pay them out of Income. The people will approve his re quest for an additional 18 billion or more for rearmament, to re place what we disposed of follow ing the close of the last war, in one of our appeasement efforts to Rus sia. But that additional 18 billion will now buy many less airplanes, tanks, big guns, ships and other needed supplies than it would have paid for even two years ago. Two years ago, congress authorized an increase in the air force up to 70 squadrons. The President did not believe such an increase necessary or advisable. It might arouse Stalin, and he did not make it. To make such an increase now will cost close to twice what it would have cost two years ago. Congress could do a part of the job of saving the nation. A sure way to stop the home government spending is to de feat the spenders. The President has not said any thing to congress about forgetting that Columbia river power and ir rigation project until we get caught up on cur preparedness program. It is one of the costly ventures wc have dona without for many years, and could continue to do without for more years until a more oppor tune time It is but one of several such projtcts we do not need now. UNITED DEFENSE FUND Organization Formed to Aid Financing of Welfare Services The United Defense Fund, Inc. a new organization for financing of national health and welfare services made necessary by the defense ef fort, got under way recently tfith an appeal to ths Community Chests in more than 1200 cities for funds to support a program of services in 1961. A federation of national agen cies and local community interests for the joint financing of national defense services in the field of health and welfare, the United De fense Fund, Inc. offered to local communities a “single-package" ap peal for support of national defense health and welfare services for both civilians and the armed forces. The organization was formed to By INEZ GERHARD B ING CROSBY gives another per formance as himself in “Mr. Music"; box office reports of the past prove that the movie-going public is satisfied if he sings and cracks jokes, so he does it once more. The picture is like a gaily wrapped present, containing plenty of entertainment. Ruth Hussey and BING CROSBY Charles Coburn '.ead the list of ex cellent actors, and the list of guest stars is impressive, including Dorothy, Kirsten, Grcucho Marx, and Peggy Lee. Nancy Olson carries the burden of the love story—never very important in a Crosby picture, of course. There is plenty of nice music and good dancing; for good entertainment, take “Mr. Music". It had to happen some time, of course; too bad Ralph Edwards was the victim. He had filmed his Christmas “Truth or Consequences" television show, on which he really shot the works. So—the wrong can of film was sent by the agfency to CBS-TV in New York, and was re leased, the week before Christmas, instead of the show scheduled for that date, on stations on the cable from New York. There were divided openings when it was learned that NBC was negotiating an exclusive, long-term contract with Mar garet Truman for radio and television appearances, receiv ing nearly $4,000 for each per formance. Some people thought NBC might better spend the money in some other way, oth ers felt her appearance recent ly on “The Big Show" really justified the deal. Lauren Bacall has a way of get ting what she wants. She wanted Humphrey Bogart, and got him. She has her screen career, her baby Recently she signed to make one picture a year for 20th Century-Fox, but first she will accompany Bogart when he goes to Europe to co-star in “African Queen" with Katherine Hepburn, for his own independent company. That’s very nice planning. meet the frequently expressed de sire of local Community Chests that appeals to them from national agencies, especially in time of spe cial need, bo properly screened, budgeted, and united in their fi nancing—just as is the Community Chest itself. Other reasons for the unification of these national agency services are: (1) a desire not to increase the number of appeals now being made to the American public; (2) a wish to join forces in carrying out needed services eco nomically, efficiently and effective ly. The organization of the United Defense Fund, Inc. was preceded by a series of conferences which in cluded the national agencies and groups concerned and representa tives of Community Chests. As a result of these sessions a planning and advisory committee on national emergency services was jointly ap pointed by Community Chests and Councils of America, Inc. and the National Social Welfare Assembly, Inc. to consider what services were needed and how they should be or ganized and financed. This commit tee made a series of recommenda tions, one of which requested the two sponsoring organizations to set up a national fund which could fi nance such services and approach the country throug a single pack age of essential services. This rec ommendation was considered and approved by the governing bodies of both organizations and author ization was given to proceed with the fund organization. E. A. Roberts, president of Fideli ty Mutual Life Insurance Company, Philadelphia, Pa. was elected pres ident at the first meeting of the Fund November 28, ‘ in New York City. Charles H. Watts, chairman of board. Beneficial Management Cor poration, Newark, N. J. was elect ed treasurer. William H. Bulkeley, vice president of Kellogg and Bul keley. Lithographic Division, Con necticut Printers Incorporated, Hartford, Conn., was elected sec retary. • * • SERVICES TO RECEIVE sup port from<the United Defense Fund, Inc. fall into two groups at pres ent. The first group is concerned with services to the armed forces and will be conducted by: American So cial Hygiene Association; Associ ated Services for the Armed Forces (which includes Jewish • Welfare Board. National Catholic Commu nity Services and YMCA); Nation al Recreation Association; Nation al Travelers’ Aid Association and Y.W.C.A. The second group will provide services to communities congested by the national defense effort. These services will be conducted by: Child Welfare League of America; Na tional Organization for Public Health Nursing; National Federation of Settlements and Neighborhood Cen-- ters; National Urban League; Na tional Catholic Community Serv ice; National Recreation Associa tion and Y.W.C.A. The United Defense Fund, Inc. will raise funds through the “unit ed campaign" approach wherever possible and will seek support from the nation's Community Chests on a share and share alike basis, com munity quotas being based on the recommendations of the National Quota Committee. Funds will also be sought in New York City. The national campaign goal for the United Defense Fund, Inc. as approved by the National Budget Committee for services to be given in 1931 is $7,399,329. Community Chests throughout the country will be asked to provide $6,058,101 of this goal with the remaining $1,- 341,228 to be secured from New York City and other non-Chest sources. pn CCUI nn DII77IC ^ w ® r * In JdW nil rULLu ***««# ACROSS 1.

Dick Shipley, still In his greasy cover-alls, frowned as he found his pretty young wife sitting on the wide-board floor in an upstairs bed room, mending a faded blue rag rug. Margaret stood up slowly and planted a kiss on his smudgy cheek. “We MUiate Fiction want to have a nice crib and other things for our first baby, don’t we, darling? And that takes money —more than we’ve got to spend." “Maybe I could take another job in the evenings, or something.” “Why, Dick, you’re exhausted when you come home from the garage; and lots of times you don’t even get here until eight or nine." “Yeh, I know. Starting a new business means no money and no free time for a while.’’ “Well, this house your mother left us has more rooms than we need for ourselves." “But just look at the furniture!" Dick waved an arm at the room in general. “You sit in that wooden rocker for ten minutes and those slats make a prison bar pattern on your back. The bed’s so high you need a Pullman ladder to Climb into it, and that wash stand—” “I think It’s all kind of quaint,’’ Margaret said placidly. Dick snorted. “People on va cation want to be comfortable, not quaint. And besides, think where we’re located; practical ly out In the country, the opposite end of town from the lake an* all the amusements." “It's nice and quiet, though," Margaret insisted. Dick shrugged. “I give up. But I hate to see you slaving away up here." BROADWAY AND MAIN STREET Al Didn't Go for Soft-Soap, but He Was an Easy Touch By BILLY ROSE In Miami some winters ago, Al Jolson stoppea in for a quick one at the bar of the hotel where he was staying, and as if on cue the juke box began playing his recording of “Sonny Boy.” When the machine clicked off, a plainish-ldoking woman walked up to the bartender and said, “Lend me a couple of nickels, Mac. I can't get enough of that song.” Jolson pushed a quarter down the bar. “The next five are on me," he said. The woman looked over and her face lit up. “Why—you’re Mr. Jol son!" she said. “Sure," said Al, “and you knew it the minute I came in. W h a t* s the idea of the corny routine, sister?" “I just had to talk to you," said the woman. “I’ve been sitting here all afternoon hoping you’d drop in." * *' * “WHAT’S ON YOUR asked Al. “My husband is in a jam," said the woman. ‘He’s the desk clerk in this hotel and he was on duty the other night when you checked in and left an envelope full of money to be put in the safe. Yesterday he heard about a sure thing at Hialeah and took a thousand dollars out of your envelope and bet it on the Billy Rose mind?’ horse to win. Well, the ‘sure thing* came in fifth." “Has your husband ever dipped into the safe before?" asked Jolson. "Never" said the woman. "In fact, be never bet on a horse un til yesterday—and the only rea son be did it was became our son is getting out of high school next June and we?ve got our hearts set on sending him to college" “And you thought that by playing ‘Sonny Boy’ you could soft-soap me out of a thousand bucks?" said AL “Well, I don’t soft-soap that easy. Go and get your husband—you’re both coming with me." • • • A FEW MINUTES later the couple were in a cab with Jolson, sure it was all over but the fingerprinting, but instead of heading for a police station the hackie drove out to the South Miami dog track. There Al led the husband to a pari-mutuel window aa>4 handed him five one- hundred-dollar bills. “This makes fifteen hundred you owe me," he said. “Bet the five C’s on No. 4 to win—I got a tip on him this morning." No. 4 ran so fast it darn near caught up with the mechanical rab bit, and when the clprk cashed in his tickets he was handed $3,000— the odds had been five-to-one. “I’ll take my fifteen hundred," said AL “and let this be a lesson to you. Never bet the horses—if you gotta bet, bet the dogs." Last Fall, after a guest broadcast in New York, Jolson was button holed by a young man as he was leaving the studio. "I don’t suppose you remem ber," be said to Al, "but several years ago you took my folks out to the Miami dog track and helped them win fifteen hundred dollars. That money made it pos sible for me to go to college." “Sure, I remember," said Al, “and when you write your mom tell her she still owes me some dough." “I never heard about it,” said the young man. “How much was it?" “A quarter," said Jolson. "She was playing a juke box and ran out of change," Margaret stood op slowly, pot her arms around his neck and planted a kiss on his sznndgy cheek. “Oh, well, the doctor says I need plenty of exercise,” Margaret said soothingly. "There’s the doorbell. I’ll get it.” Dick, still looking troubled, started downstairs. A portly, pink-cheeked old gentle man stood on the porch. “This is the Shipley residence?’’ “Why, yes,” Dick looked goggle- eyed past him to the long shiny black car parked in front of the house. “May I speak to Mrs. Shipley?" “I’m Mrs. Shipley," Margaret called from the top of the stairs." “I am Mr. Frost of Big Rapids. You have some rooms for rent?" “Yes. Please come up and I’ll show them to you," Margaret an swered. D ICK stayed downstairs and listened glumly to the foot steps overhead. He winced as he heard the bathroom door squeak and imagined Mr. Frost’s first view of the old tub standing high on its claw feet There was a lengthly murmer of voices in the upstairs hall. Then down came Mr. Frost a hand on Margaret’s elbow, and she accept ing the little attention as the most natural thing in the world. “Well, it’s all settled then," Mr. Frost was saying. “We’ll take the two rooms for the summer. “Yes sir, this advertisement hit us in the right spot." He fingered a little piece of newspaper. “Advertisement?" Dick stared at the paper. “Your wife used a good psycho logical trick, didn’t she?" Mr. Frost chuckled. “Playing down a thing so much that it excited your curiosity.” “Uh, yes," Dick laughed weakly. “Let’s see that again," he said, trying not to look too astonished. “For rent," he read, “for the summer season, two rooms in ancient frame house, unfashion able part of resort village, very few modern conveniences, no recreational facilities nearby. Mrs. Richard Shipley, 1293 Stanley Road, Weehsgen, Michigan." “Yes," Mr. Frost said. “My wife saw that and said it made hea thing of a Currier and Ives print—’* He handed Margaret some bills, put on his grey homburg, and stepped briskly out the door, garet “Your greatest triumph, honey, is that you’ve managed not to look triumphant."

Of every dollar exchanging hands in the in dustry, 78 cents goea to the coun try's farmers. Profits in 1949, as reported by companies producing the bulk of the nation's meat supply, averaged 7/19 :ents out of each dollar of tales, or shout 1/3 of a cent per pound of meat sold.

Profits included those made on the sale of meat and all other pro ducts, Including by-products and non-meat items, such as soap, cleansers, medicinal glands, and dairy and poultry products. The meat industry expects a near record production during 1951. Con sumption will remain high due to defense buying and record employ ment, industry spokesmen believe. Egg Production Depends On Well Balanced Bation Poultry experts report it requires about one pound of balanced feed for every seven eggs produced. To make a well balanced ration the rocational agricultural service of the University of Illinois advises: Use at least three feeds from the cereal grains and by-products to make up 75 to 90 per cent of the ration. Five to 10 per cent of the ration should comprise an animal-protein feed. Use one or more plant-protein feeds, if available at reasonable cost. Not more than 15 per cent of the ra tion should come from this group. Include at least one legume rough- age, to make up 5 to 10 per cent Some carrier of calcium should be included if the ration contains no meat scrap, fishmeal or tankage. One pound of common salt should be added for each 100 pounds of to tal ration. Hof Houst yx Scientific hog raising for highest profits calls for warm, dry, inex pensive housing.
