reaching operation will be car-

There we have another phase
of the communist expansion
which finally has resulted in Am-
erica's new world policy. Evei
-since the war ended, France har
been sitting on a volcano, and
many observers believe the rea-
son there hasn’t been a violent
eruption before this is becauat
the communists have made such
progress that they have had hope*
of getting full control of th<
country without resorting to ex-
treme measures. The Reds cur-
rently constitute the largest par-
ty, having barely edged out the
middle-of-the-road popular Re-
publican movement.
The story starts long before tht
war. Early In Stalin's regime
the communists established pow-
erful cells in France, especially in
the great industrial district about
Paris. By the time the conflict
broke the party membership was
heavy,' it being said that there
were a million communists in the
environs of the capital alone.

s*
nan* 5-14.
When the Hitlerites overran the
hapless country the communists
dove underground and joined the
other Free French lq fighting the
•nemy. Throughout the occupation
they continued Intensive organi-
zation of their cells, and carried*
Red' indoctrination into every
nook and cranny. It is a truism
hat communism thrives on des-
>air, and many folk who had been
opposed to the Red ism finally
lecided to give it b trial to see if
t would bring them relief from
heir overwhelming burdens.
That’s the present status—ex-
-epting for those rumors of pos-
sible violence. The best one can
ay for such reports is that an act-
e volcano always is potentially
igngerous. We are reminded of
his by the present situation in
■'rent'll Indo-China where the
’arls government is trying to stir-
iress a rebellion said to be in-
pired by communists.
Wednesday the French national
issembly accorded Premier Ra-
nadier a vote of confidence on
ils Indo-China policy, but the
■ommunists refused to vote, de-
claring that the government should
■ome to terms ‘with 'the colonial
regime. Yesterday Hamadier act-
ed to force a showdown with the
Reds in the assembly later this
week.

TEXAS TODAY
By Jaek Rutledge
Associated Press Staff
The most unusual newspaper
plant in Texas is the Hillsboro
Mirror.
When someone says the press
is rolling, you're never sure just
what is being printed—newspaper,
carpenter's aprons, iieniiants or
fly swatters.
It’s a fascinating set-up, and
the new editor-publisher, W. N.
Furey, is still discovering strange

and intriguing things about the
67-year-oid plant.
The Mirror is printed by the
Texas Novelty Advertising com-
liany. and therein lies the tale.
At one time, the eompany made a
lot more money out of manufact-
uring novelty items than it did out
of its two papers, the Daily Mirr-
or (established in 18061. or Its
weekly (founded in 1881).
Major novelty item still being
made there Is the carpenter apron.
It is sold all over the country. It
is an all-Hill county product. The
cotton is raised in Hill county,
ginned there, then made into duck
by local mills.
The cloth is then cut into pat-
terns, printed with proper ad-
vertising, sewed and branded by

and Furey may try the idea som|
time.
Meanwhile, he’s busy conceit
trating on building up the news
paper. Circulation and advertis
ing already have climbed since h
took over last year. He’s replacilli

shop needs it, One Linotype mach

Opce the paper is rollinl

to doing something about build!

something contagious about it.

/Years ago Campbell decided
burrs would be nicer than safety
pins to hook badges on a person’s
coat or dress. He sold American
Legion officials on the idea, and
(hey bought 50,000 badges for
their national convention 22.years
ago. After signing the contract,
he came home and advertised in
his paper that he would buy cock-
leburrs by the pound.
Frank Sinatra’s movie failure

which made the mistake of n<
following up his sucres* in “Apij
hors Aweigh.” After the “Kissii]
Bandit,” he’ll do Irving Berlin
“Easter Parade," then a basebsl
story which Gene Kelly is wj'll
ing for the pair.
Farmers, homeowners, boys and
girls, everyone began collecting
cockle-burrs, selling them to
Campbell. He then put his plant
to work. Some workers would
split the burrs in half, others
would print the badges, then the
badges would be attached to the
trarrr. To attach to one's coat, all
you had to do was push lightly—
the badge stayed on. No messing
around with a pin, no tearing of
cloth.

them?), printers aprons, paper
or palm leaf fans, pennants for
fairs, monogrammed matchbook
asbestos iron pads, ciothspin bags
for housewives.
Rummaging around the two-
story brick building, Furey has
found and is still finding other
novelty items that used to be
popular in the days the plant was
a humming, nationally - known
company operated by D. W.
Campbell and L. J. Thompson.
These are paperweights, menu
covers, key cases, whistles, rulers,
the old gasoline gauges so popular
with Model T. owners, metal fly
swatters, a gadget to knock the
head off a glass of beer, quill
liens, calendars, buttons of var-
ious types, fans made in China,
ice picks. Recently Furey found
a dozen oid Oliver typewriter*.
Several bags full of cockletturrs
had him puzzled for a while, but
he’s learned now whist the ingen-
ious former owners used them for.
