NTEW YORK— It was the old woman I met in
11 East 45th street today who made me realize
that I have become like all the rest—suspicious,
skeptical, cynical, indifferent.
This is a city in which you can go, maybe, two
or three blocks without being approached by a pan-

of them is jolly or happily drunk or pathetic
enough so that you dig down and pass out a dime
or quarter, but most of them are creatures of small
persuasion and no charm and you just shake your
head no at them and hurry on.
So I came hurrying along East 45th today, deep
in income tax troubles, when this little old woman
came toward me with her hand out. So I shook
my head no and continued on—when she swung
around toward me and said "No, no, you don’t

THE NEW YORKER IS SUSPICIOUS of his own mother, There
U a legend around that New Yorkers are the most gullible of souls
and that a con man interested in peddling the Brooklyn bridge looks
for a native of Manhattan as his easiest mark. It is only a legend.
The swindler who puts one over on the cynical, ever-aware Gothamite
should win a cigar for his ingenuity. It’s not easy.
The New Yorker listens to the morning radio announcer tell him
the day will be sunny, but if there’s the slightest doubt, the smallest
cloud in the sky, he will be worried all day. He may not take the
drastic step of carrying a raincoat or umbrella—and never, of course,
rubbers—but he will worry. The New Yorker figures, well, the
weatherman says sunny but he might just have an angle In saying so.
Thfs probably is the only city in the world where the citizens some-
times figure that the weatherman is not honest.
He gets into the elevator in his apartment building and talks to no
one, and on the subway he races his neighbor for a seat, automati-
cally. When he reaches his office, he shucks his jacket, sits down,
lights a clgaret—and prepares to fight the cold, hard, civilized fight
for a buck. Many New Yorkers don’t even want a man to tell his
story to them, and they hang up signs outside their office doors that
say, “No salesmen will be seen today.”

I GUESS WHAT IT BOILS DOWN TO IS, we don’t trust anyone.
That’s a pretty sad state of affairs.
We check the bottle-tops of the milk to make sure the grocer hasn’t
slipped yesterday’s left-over to us, and we look both ways when cross-
ing the street, even when it’s a one-way lane. When the guy with
the hot mink stole beckons us into a doorway and wants to peddle us
’ the stolen fur cheaply, we just hoot at him and pass on. At the track,
we make sure the ticket punched out to us by the pari-mutuel seller
is stamped No. 6, if No. 6 is the one we want, before we walk away
from the window. We are suspicious and skeptical and our first
thought when we meet someone new is "What’s his angle?"
For every effect there is a cause, and the most obvious explanation
. Of our distrust is that, over the years, it has been merited. This is a
• city full of sharpies, ready to do each other in. When I was 21 I
bought a wristwatch from a Sixth avenue shop that cost me $8 and
ran three days, then stopped forever. I’ll bet seven out of 10 New
Yorkers have had similar experiences. Enough of them, piled atop one
another, make a brittle, glossy veneer over the most sensitive of
skins.
You know, you always can tell a midwesterner in New York be-
» cause he or she walks down the Manhattan streets with a hie- smile
on his or her face. I always want to say to them, "Hey, wipe that off.
You'll be in trouble before you go another block." However, I don't.
I let them go ahead and get into trouble. Sometimes I envy them.
I’m a New Yorker. I never get into trouble. Darn it.

The Holiday Turkey
There will be plenty of turkey
for holiday dinners this year. The
supply is adequate to furnish tur-
key on every table at Thanksgiv-
ing and Christmas. Although not
i s many as last year, the number
of turkeys on the market wil’ be
sufficient to meet the needs of
Texas families.
With the plentiful supply, you j
can afford to be selective when
shopping for the turkey of your
choice. Look for quality birds,
well fleshed and finished, and
processed to provide meat of good
flavor. Don’t waste your money
buying a bird with too much fat.
Get a large bird with enough fat
to insure good flavor.
If the turkey has been killed,
bled and dressed right, the meat
will look white instead of reddish
in color, and there will not be
pin feathers and bruised marks
on the flesh. Ask to see the dress-
cdd turkey to check for these
signs. Notice if the lungs, kidney
and oil sack have been removed
from the body cavity. These only

Shtart with a ready-to-cook tur-

body and neck cavities loosely

back and fasten with skewer or
a few stitches. For stitching use
clean white wrapping cord and
a large needle. Tuck legs under
band of kin at tail or tie down.
To do this wrap cord around legs
and under tail. This will hold legs
close to the body. Fold the wing
tips back on the wings. This will
help to hold the neck skin in
place. Grease skin of turkey with
melted or softened fat. Place
breast down on rack in shadow
pan. Do not add water, and do not
cover. Place preheated over set
at proper temperature indicated

to the other, then breast up. Oi

{V rASHINGTON—Senators predict that the congressional hearing*
V on juvenile delinquency, opening Wednesday, Nov. 18, will really
st k the nation. The Investigation Is being conducted by a special
ju clary sub-committee headed by Senator Robert C. Hendrickson
(R) New Jersey. It is aimed at finding ways to strengthen laws
covering the misdeeds of teen-agers.
Subcommittee sources confess that their preliminary probing has
disclosed a shocking mass of material, bearing out
. Ce m the recent warning of FBI Director J. Edgar
Hoover that thou ands of youthful criminals are
1 developing into a nationwide menace.
g, The influence of so-called "comic" books, which
* T glorify crime and criminals and leave lurid Im-
a 4 e pressions on the minds of adolescents, will be fully
(, spotlighted.

Hendrickson centered in big cities. However, in 1954, the maxi-
mum drives will be made in the suburbs.
The reason is that cities are remaining more or less static from a
population standpoint, but virtually all suburbs have registered enor-

Democrats, particularly, are Interested in the suburban vote bee
cause the 1952 presidential election indicated that people who had
voted the Democratic ticket when they lived in cities became Re-
publicans after they moved to more spacious precincts.
Special squadrons already are being formed by both the GOP and
the Democrats to “beat the bushes" for votes in next year's con-
gressional races.
The Republicans want to consolidate their gain*, the Democrat*
are eager to recoup their losses!
