should contact the social security of-
fice if you should die? That prompt-
ness in doing so on her part will
avoid possible loss of survivors in-

Political note: Some of the profes-

hower out of the running, Taft and
Dewey will deadlock at the conven-

talk of the merits of Vandenberg.

Does a casserole play a leading role in your kitchen? It does
in mine .. . especially during Lent, when I serve lots of noodles,
beans and other foods with “baking ways.” Let me tell you how
I fix my favorites. / ,t . ,
HAVE OODLES OF NOODLES!
You needn’t empty your purse to
enjoy Lenten dishes that fill you
un. Just make them with A&P’s
thrifty ANN PAGE NOODLES.
Grand dozens of ways! For in-
stance: Combine 1 cup coarsely
broken, uncooked ANN PAGE
BROAD NOODLES, a 5 oz. can of
shrimp, 1 medium
onion (sliced), 1

International Law
Expert On Tideland
Entry of an international law ex-
pert into the tidelands ownership
case on the side of the states high-
lighted Washington developments in
the explosive controversy as hearings
on the question opened, it has been
announced by Attorney General Price
Daniel.
Meanwhile the states put up a vir-
tually solid front against the federal
threat to take title to underwater
lands which are traditionally proper-
ty of the states. Daniel reported that
46 and possibly all 4S states will be
represented at the hearings under
way before a joint Senate and House
judiciary subcommittee.
The international expert is Manley
O. Hudson, a former judge on the
Permanent Court of International
Justice and now legal advisor to Sec-
retary of State George Marshall. Dan-
iel Indicated that Hudson’s testimony
is expected to have strong effect on
the progress of legislation to give
the states undisputed title to the sub-
merged lands.
Hudson attended the luncheon
given here by the State Bar of Texas,
a luncheon at which Governor Beau-
ford Jester, Attorney General Daniel
and Land Commissioner Bascorn Gil-
es headed the Texas delegation in
Washington to testify on the tide-
lands issue. Robert Lee Bobbitt of
San Antonio, chairman of the State
Bar's tidelands committee, was host
for the luncheon. Legal staffs of 44
states were represented.
Also at a luncheon were the Texas
secretary of state, Paul Brown;
Congressmen Ed Gossett of Wichita
Falls and J. M. Combs of Beaumont;
Elton Hyder, Jr., assistant Texas at-
torney general, and Curtis Morris of
Longview, representing the Texas
State Teacher’s Association.
A native Missourian, Hudson lias
been a. figure in international law
since he was attached to the Ameri-
can Commission to Negotiate Peace
in Paris in 1918. He was a member of
the League of Nations Secretariat in
1919-21, and was elected to the
World Court in 1936.
“In his appearance before the ju-
diciary subcommittee, Hudson will
present his opinion that the II. S.
Supreme Court erred in the applica-
tion of a principle of international
law to the California tidelands suit,
the controlling opinion on the tide-
lands ownership issue”, Daniel point-
ed out.
When the colored preacher said to
Brother Jones that he should give a
small donation for a fence around
the cemetery, Jones replied. “I don’t
see no use in a fence around the
cemetery. Deni wliat’.s in there can’t
get out, and dem what’s out sho doan
wanna get in.”

When Eddie, the noticeably slow-
moving and inefficient clerk in a
small-town general store, wasn’t in
evidence one morning, a customer
asked: “Where’s Eddie? Ain’t sick,
is he?” “Nope, he ain’t sick,” replied
the proprietor. “He’s just not work-
ing here any more.” “Got anybody in
mind to fill the vacancy?” responded
the curious villager. “Nope,” said the
proprietor. “Eddie didn’t leave no
vacancy.”
