Akorn Isn’t Creating Scarcities by
Baying Pillow Slips or Plow Points
1 SSS3IL?.
Editor’s note: Achin Al-
corn, philosopher on his
Johnson grass farm on Sul-
phur, this week comes out
against hoarding, in his own
peculiar way.
Dear Editor: I went into town
catch up on the
there’s two kinds, the kind
you read in the papers and the
kind you hear on the streets and
while we got the closest thing
there is to freedom of the press
country there ain’t no
-Wspspw that can hold a light
to street news, mainly on ac-
account of editors like to live the
same as other people, and while
I was in town I picked up some
good stories about all this scare
buying.
One woman I understand
bought 24 sheets at one time,
Which is 22 more than I’ve ever
had and frequently is 23 more.
Another woman bought 18 shirts
for her husband, sayin he didn’t
have a one to his name, guess he
was wearin a pull-over sweater
in mid-summer. Coffee and su-
gar also has been pretty hard
hit, along with tires and pillow
slips, although personally I can’t
imagine a war so awful its pros-
pect would drive me to hoardin
pillow slips.
In fact, I wish to say that I
personally am holding the line
for President Truman and ain’t
bought a single item I don’t need.
In fact, I’m even ahead of the
President and there’s lots of
things I need I ain’t buyin. If I

Army Plans To
Boost Strength
To 834,000 Men
WASHINGTON. — The Army
plans to step up its strength to
834.000, an increase of 240,000 of-
ficers and men over the 594,000
now in uniform.
The increase is planned under
President Truman’s additional
emergency budget request of $1,-
500.000. 000 for fiscal 1951.
Of this amount, 54 per cent of
$1,651,000,000 will be spent for
tanks, guns, field artillery and
items, but you ain’t gonna catch
me endangerin the war effort and
bringin on scarcities, and I’ll
make the sacrifice and do with-
out them parts before I’ll stam-
ciation and editor of the Ft.
Worth Star Telegram, told the
group Northeast Texas pasture-
lands have wonderful possibili-
ties and called attention to the
pede this country into rationin.1 prides
I’ll put my country ahead of
plowin any day.
When the President says hold
the line, I’ll hold it, even if I
have to sit in the shade to do it.
Ain’t nothin half-way about me.
Yours faithfully, A. A.

All of these houses, except the

Liberal With Other
People’s Money
“As we face our problems to-
day and consider their nature wc
measure the severity of those
problems with the degree that we
have drifted away from the sim-
ple principles with which we be-
gan. We can recognize the de-
gree we have changed when the
definition of a liberal is a man
in Washington who wants to play
the Almighty with our money.”

dent, Columbia University.

HE COULDN’T BEAR
SUCH INTRUSION
Missoula, Mont. — James Ring
turned on a faucet in his ranch
house.
Nothing happened. He went
outside to investigate, thinking
the pipe from the spring was
plugged. The pipe wasn’t plug-
ged. It had been ripped out of
the spring, and in the cool, once-
clean water was a bathing black
bear.
We will appreciate your print-
ing orders, large or small.
Also appearing before the com-
mittee were Maj. Gen. E. L. Ford,
chief of Army Ordnance, and
Brig. Gen Leslie Simon, chief of
Ordnance research.
The Army is already slated to
get 100,000 draftees by Oct. 30.
This may be followed with at
least one more draft call before
the end of the year to reach the
934.000- man goal.
While the Air Force and the
Navy are waiting to see if volun-
teers will fill their combined
340.000- man quota, the Army
made clear Thursday that it is
relying heavily on the selective
service act to meet .its manpower
needs.
It boosted its September draft
call from 20,000 to 50,000 and said
it would call up another 50,000
in October.
Even the increased total would
fall short of bringing the ground
forces to their 800,000 man goal.
Army manpower on June 30—
the last date for which figures
will be released—was about 591,-
000.
2 Million Wanted
In addition to the Army, the
United States is building as
swiftly as possible toward an Air
Force of 584,000 and a Navy of
579.000- for a total military
strength of 1,927,000 within the
next few months. By next June
this is expected to climb to 2,-
300,000.
In a move to stabilize the mili-
tary force, President Truman has
signed an executive order extend-
ing for 12 months all enlistments
in the armed services.

Marvin Varners

ry Wayne 2 and Linda, born

Dr. A G. Elder was the attend-
ing physician at Linda’s birth.
LEFT ON THE HOOK
Jones, having offended Smith,
was challenged to “fight it out.”
“I can’t fight with my glasses
on,” he said to Brown, who was
acting as refree, “and if I take
them off I shan’t be able to see
him.”
“Well, then,” said Brown, “take
a good look at him, remove your
glasses, and strike from mem-
ory.”
THE MYSTERY UNSOLVED
Pat: “How much do yez
weigh?”
Mike: “One hundred and sev-
enty-five.”
Pat: “Ya musta got weighed
wid yer coat on.”
Mike: “Ah did not. I held it
in me arms all the time.”

What Your Baby
Doesn’t Know
That little baby in your family
born last year does not know it,
but he already owes a debt of $2,-
760.68 to the U. S. Government
—his share of the national debt.
Most American parents don’t
realize it, but they are cooperat-
ing with the federal government
in mortgaging their babies’ fu-
ture.
During the prosperous fiscal
year ending June 30, the federal
government has spent more than
six billion dollars more than its
income. Thus, the babies of to-
day—the taxpayers of tomorrow
RAMSEY THANKS
—face exhorbitant taxes result-
ing from today’s government
spending.
NO QUOTAS
Mrs. Newlywed greeted her
husband as he returned from the
office with copious crocodile tears
and a telegram.
“I had to open the telegram,"
she said. “Your rich uncle has
passed away.”
After a short pause she couldn’t
contain herself any longer.
“He mentioned you in his will,
didn’t he?” she asked.
"Yes, he did,” her husband
said, “but I wouldn’t care to re-
peat what he said.”
BEN RAMSEY, run-off cundi- j
date for , Lieutenant Governor. !
thanked Texas voters this week ,
for the vote they gave him in the ,
July 22 primary election. Ram- j
sey, shown here in his San Aug- i
ustine law office, said his heart
was “filled with humble grati- j
tude," and asked his supporters
to continue the fight and elect j
him Lieutenant Governor in the
Aug. 26 second primary. Ramsey j
is the only experienced candidate
in the race. (Pol Adv.)
