If some one were to tell you
that, under the Truman ad-
ministration, May 1, 1945 to
June 30, 1951 the American
people paid by Twelve Billion
($12,000,000,000) Dollars more
taxes than they paid in the
156 years—1789 to April 30,
1945—under all the presidents
including President Roosevelt,
you would wonder if he were
telling you the truth.
And yet that is exactly what
has happened. Under all the
presidents, including all
000,000,000, in marketable or
transferable bonds, and, in ad-
dition to that, there are out-
standing $82,000,000,000 non-
marketable, or series E bonds
and special issues amounting
to $34,600,000,000, making a
grand total of $255,000,000,-
000.
To give the reader some
| idea of how our national debt
has grown we point out that:
we went into World War I with
a federal debt of about $1,000,-
000,000. We went into World
War II with less than $30,000,-
000, 000 federal debt, and we
went into Korea with more
than quarter of a trillion dol-
lar federal debt. We now owe
$255,000,000,000 (billions) in
federal debts. The interest on
our national debt amounts to
more than $7,000,000 000 an-
nually.
How long can this nation
stand such expenditure?

We’ve just had a political cam-

ballot box race.
Rusty Robinson, with no cam-
paign funds, planned his Election

McCormick, who owns the Palace
movie house, was finishing up his
campaign in Pioneer Hall.
Then it began to rain. Rusty's
political career was fizzling out in
the damp when Slim showed up
to say that Robinson people could
meet in his theatre—for nothing.
“I want to beat Rusty,” Slim said,
"but certainly not with rain!"

'this our fathers bought for us
Kipi.ing was speaking of precious human freedom
when-he wrote, "This our fathers bought for us long
and long ago."
But courage and valor are not solely the virtues
of brave fighting men in combat. It took no less
courage for men like Pasteur, Lister, Koch, and
hosts of others to struggle for scientific truth against
cries of heresy from the ignorant and the super-
stitious. Inspired by the example of these great men,
your physician battles the same foes today. At his
side is the pharmacist, always eager to carry the
fight to the enemy.
We invite you to visit our complete prescription
department. We are prescription specialists.
Expert veterinarians report
that symptoms of the disease
are extremely difficult to de- | Allied
tect, principally because they e
would be unnoticed until cattle
arc already down and sick.
Mr. Patterson said that treat-
ment with concentrated viti-
min E is possible if the disease
is detected early.
"Results of the concentrate
are variable after an animal is
down,” he said. “Producers
had better feed their cattle or
lose them from ‘white muscle
disease’ or from something else
this winter. Medicine is not
the answer. Feed is the an-
swer.”
Meanwhile, Fayette farmers
and ranchers are keeping one
eye on their cattle and the
other on the sky, hoping for
rain. Plus that, they’re hunting
for plenty of balanced rations
which they trust will stave off
the unwanted, dread disease.

Mr. Lee was found shot to

then to Wharton for clarifica-

A check up revealed that the

Houston — not Carmine — and
that, while in that city, Oliver
and Dunlop had cashed hun-
dreds of dollars worth of forg-

Root check blanks and writing
them with the stolen machines.
