r ' EDITORIALS Furses Fresh Flashes YE APOLOGIZE Anytime a newspaperman tries to pat someone on the back, he can expect to be bopped in the teeth and a good share of the time he deserves it due to carelessness. We had that experience recently and have no excuse but the fact that we just didn't dig deep enough, nor did we use the few brains the good Lord saw fit to give us. So here and now, we would like to add James Sedlak's name to the list of men who have contributed so much to the beauty of Oak Hill Cemetery. Mr. Sedlak is the caretaker Of the Catholic section of this beautiful last resting place and gives a helping hand to other sections when time is available. Our apologies Jim someday you can get even by slipping over in another sec tion and bopping us in the face with a spade. DUYING COFFINS AND MAKING FRIENDS A recent news story included a tip on making friends. It revealed that Mrs. Emma Hawkins, of Honey Grove, Tex as, had made a lot of friends after buy ing her coffin, twenty years ago. At that time, she says, the Lord told her to be prepared. She was sick much of the time in those days and feared she might soon die. She reports that she ob tained a baking powder can and every time she had some change, or a dollar, she put it in the can. After what Mrs. Hawkins calls a long time, the baking powder can contained $65 and she bought herself a gray uphol stered coffin, with white satin lining. She put a dress and some mothballs inside. That was some twenty years ago. And at that time Mrs. Hawkins was 64. Today she is 84, and relates howr the purchase of the coffin, which news passed rapidly through her community, brought her many visits and future friendships. She says people are still coming to see her, and they all ask whether she has tried the coffin for size. The newspaper which reported Mrs. Hawkins' experience reports she hasn't tried it out for size. ft ft ft BUSINESS BOOM CONTINUES First quarter economic statistics show that the country is headed toward an all time business boom if the trend is not reversed before the end of 1955. The business spurt which began with the Christmas buying surge of 1954 is con tinuing and, at the end of March, it had developed into an actual business boom. Moreover, there are many economists who see no letdown in sight, and they certainly have imposing figures to back up their argument. Records topped in the first quarter of this year include those in such key industries as the automobile industry, steel industry, construction and retail sales. Other industries which have not fared as well as these have, neverthe less, shown definite signs of improvement. Figures released recently show that in the first quarter of this year, personal incomes amounted to an annual rate of ov er $290,000,000,000. That represents a new record and is $7,500,000,000 above the corresponding period of 1954. Con sumer spending increased even faster than income, leading some observers to believe that the boom will not continue to acceler ate through the rest of the year. The majority opinion seems to be that booming business will continue through at least the first six months of the year and that good business will continue through out the last half of 1955. As with the weather, nothing is certain in the field of economics, but the outlook can be called good at this time, with first quarter fig ures just in and analyzed.

DREW PEARSON SAYS: ROCK EFELLER FORTUNE "THREATEN ENED" IN PENNY-ANTE GAME; ' RUSSELL LONG BATTLES FELL OW DEMOCRATS ON HELL'S CAN YON; OPERATION ALERT TIMED AS PEACE-TALK BUILD-UP. Washington Nelson Rockefeller, whose family is one of the wealthiest in America, was playing penny-ante poker on the President's special plane enroute to San Francisco. In the game with him were Congressmen Miller, Democrat of Oakland, Cal., Mailliard, Republican of San Francisco, Younger of Ohio, and Scudder of California, also Republicans. When the trip was over, Rockefeller was down seven dollars to his Congress ional friends. Remarked Harold Stassen, also with the Presidential party: "I am going to watch the stock market tomorow morning. Nelson will probably have to dump a lot of stocks on the mar ket to pay for his losses." Russell Long Deserts father Sen. Russell Long, Democrat of Louisi ana, did his best to defeat his fellow Dem ocrats during bitter closed-door meeting of the Senate public wbrks committee when it voted last week on the one remain ing big undeveloped power site. in the United States. Hell's Canyon. With all other easily developed, power sites already built, Hell's Can yon on the Snake River is of crucial importance to Oregon, Washington and Idaho. The Eisenhower Administration has favored its development by the Idaho Power Company. The Democrats, with the exception of Russell Long have favored development by the govern ment, on the ground that rivers and works of nature belong to the people not private power companies. Russell Long, whose father, the late kingfish of Louisiana, battled against the power com panies, has strangely voted with the power companies. When the Dixon-Yates project was up for debate last summer, Long as tounded his colleagues by cast ing his. vote against the Demo crats and with the power lobby. When the secret meeting of the Senate interior committee opened last week, Long at first sat silent. Six Republicans bit terly denounced government operation of Hell's Canyon in cluding Millikin of Colorado, Watkins of Utah, Dworshak of Idaho, Barrett of Wyoming. The only Republican who did not take a definite stand was Kuchel of California. Though he spoke on the subject, he did not definitely commit himself. All the Democrats present urged that Hell's Canyon be developed by the Government, except Long. He sat grim and silent. Finally with Senator Murray bf Montana absent in Geneva attending the interna tional labor conference, acting Chairman Anderson of , New Mexico pulled out a letter from Murray asking that the vote be postponed until his return. An derson knew that a vote that day would mean a victorv fnr the Idaho Power company. It was at this noint that Sen ator Long finally jumped in to j uppu.se nis ieuow Democrats. Knowing that the Republicans had a one-vote marein. count ing his, Long urged that the vote De tai:en immediately, that they not wrait for Senator Murray to return. Senator Dworshak, Republi can of Idaho, did likewise. How ever, they were overruled. Final vote on the last remaining big dam site was postponed for about a week. Inside the Pentagon Here is the inside reason why operation alert was scheduled to test civil defense at the very time when the west is about to talk peace with Russia . . . The whole exercise was deliberately timed to build up public support in favor of the talks with Rus sia. The President and his ad visers believed the spectacle of thousands of government offi cials evacuating Washington to avoid a make-believe hydrogen attack would demonstrate the wisdom of trying to avoid a hor rible new war by talks around the conference table . . . The exercise was originally scheduled to take place last year as part of "operation candor." . . . Sec retary of Health Oveta Culp Hobby prepared to "rough it" during the B-bomb evacuation test by going without her nylon stockings. However, she wore a pair of immaculate white gloves . . . The first atomic aircraft en gine will be completed in ten months. It won't be ready to in stall in a plane that early, but it will be ready for ground tests. . . . America's first atomic-powered submarine, the Nautilus, will soon cross the Atlantic en tirely under water. It wron't sur face once, its speed over 25 miles an hour . . . For a long time the military have wanted to run their own spy work in stead of pooling it all under Allen Dulles and Central Intelligence. Now the National Security Coun cil has ordered Central Intelli gence to transfer some of its intelligence functions to the Joint Chiefs of Staff. In fact, the Joint Chiefs have already as signed five super-secret officers to direct the new intelligence work. Washington Pipeline Mayor L. C. Clark of Tulsa says he's sticking with his natural-gas friends and that this column had him wrong about switching to the other mayors who favor federal regulation of natural-gas transmission. Sorry for the error . . . William Kern has been appointed to the Fed eral Trade Commission, replac ing veteran Commissioner Jim Mead. Democrat. The law re quires that the post go to a Dem ocrat. But Kern was recom mended and sponsored for . the job by Douglas Whitlock, former assistant to the Republican Na tional Chairman . . . The Air Force's retired Gen. George Stratemeyer, hero of the Mc Carthyites, recently praised the anti-semitie writings of Dr. John Beaty, professor of English at Southern Methodist University. Dr. Beaty's writings have already been repudiated by the Univer sity . . . The western diplomatic colony is hopping mad at Mar shal Tito for suddenly trebling and quadrupling Yugoslav rents. This has turned Belgrade into probably the most expensive city in the world and has so infur iated some countries that they are threatening to close down their embassies.

Plattsmouth, Nebr " June 24, 1955 Editor, plattsmouth Journal City Dear Sir: - In the Journal for June 20th, announcement was made the Plattsmouth City Councilmen expect to create an advisory committee to help "on the com plicated matter of running the city." This recognition of the need for help reflects credit on the members of the Council. Of course they need help in run ning the. City since they can give only limited time to City affairs, are not specially pre pared in municipal government, and must of necessity give the major portion of their time and thought to earning a living for themselves and families. Although an advisory commit tee would help, I wonder if it is the best solution. Many cities have found that a trained, full time city manager is the best answer. A good city manager by using efficient methods and get ting full value on City pur chases can not only save the amount of his salary but can assure an orderly and depend able city administration. Why not let the City Council serve as the governing board and hire a competent city manager to get the job done. I believe it would be a good thing for Platts mouth. Yours truly, George H.
