He told onlookers "I believe; I felt the loose tire the first revolut ion lt made and I stopped the train soon as 1 't Maximum speed' limit f)or passenger trains through Little Cypress is 50 miles per hour.

Only a few persons Were awake when the train came to a halt and The Veto Power Lesser Of The Possible Evils Those whp want the establishment of a peace that will be fair nd lasting have never approved of the provision of the United Nations Charter which gives the major powers the right to veto action on any proposal before the Security Council. It was feared from the first that It would work to prevent the council from taking necessary steps on many Issues. That this fear was not groundless has been Shown as Russia has exercised the veto right nine times In the short period the council has sought to operate. Recognizing this, the agitation before the United Nations Assembly for revision of the charter to remove or restrict the veto power is understandable. We hope that it succeeds, and that the charter will be rewritten so that no single nation may block action designed for the general welfare of the world.

But Indications are that there is little chance that the veto right Will be eliminated at this time, and that the most which can be hoped for is that the power to exercise It may be restricted. That would be 6ome progress toward the goal. What we must keep in mind in thinking about the matter Is that It The' firm received $48,000 from two other Garsson companies for lumber It never delivered. prosecutors summon ed a series of Kentucky witnesses to tell what they know of Cumberland's operations.

Geary, Little Flock, as president of Cumberland on the firm's incorporation But Tobacco Control Approval Is Based On Experience To city folk who saw federal controls on meats and Other foodstuffs cancelled because of the vigorous opposition of the producers, It may seem strange that tobacco producers have voted by overwhelming majority for continuance of federal controls on tobacco production for another, three-year period. On one hand, It seems, the farmers oppose control while on' the other they want It. The answer lies in the fact 'that growers have learned from experience that production of tobacco under marketing quotas has, brought them a steadier market and better -prices than they -received when growing of tobacco was and prices fluctuated as the market was flooded one year and fell short the next. Fields told the Senate investigators he always thought May owned the and their two children, 'passengers on the train, said "We dliint feel a v3 Sty iirm. Is better to have a charter with the veto right Intact than to have no world organization working toward the goal of lasting peace.

That provision had to be inserted to persuade the Russians to accept the charter. It might be that there are enough nations opposed to It to force its removal now. But if they did and the Russians pulled out of the United Nations and ceased all efforts to come to terms on international Issues, the consequences might be Very disastrous for world peace. The lesser evil is to leave the veto power, modified if possible, until the Russians can be shown that It is possible for them to live at peace with the world without trying to impose their own way of life on other people. thing or hear any nolses.T Mrs.

Annie B. Jennings, of 1436 Broadway, died at her home at 1:40 It was reported unofficially that the money was spent on U. S. Highway 62 in Ballard county, but there's only a mile and a half of that highway in the county and no work of that nature has been done on it this year. The state has agreed to blacktop the La Center-Bandana road, but the work has not been done.

It has agreed to a project for the building of a new road from La Center to Blandville, but it's in the future. It has offered to take over the Monkey Eyebrow-Bandana-Woodvillc road for state maintenance, but additional rights of way have not been obtained, and indications are that it will be difficult to secure everything the state has asked for. So, it's no wonder that Ballard county is puzzled as to where that money has gone.

Well, it comes on the fourth Thursday in November this year and every year from now on. This year it falls on November 28. Many people still are confused by the fact it was observed a week earlier, by presidential proclamation, in the years 1939, 1940 and 1941. You probably recall the week's set-up as having messed up a number of football schedules. Late in 1941 the President signed a congressional act declaring 'the fourth Thursday in each year after the year 1941 be known as Thanksgiving Day and it is hereby made a legal public holiday to all intents and purposes," Admitted to Riverside Hospital cemetery.

We go into a great hotel that has the capacity to house over 2.000 guests. We read of the new air liners that have the capacity to go so many miles per minute, and to carry so many passengers. We speak of a public man or woman as having the capacity to do certain things, and no more. The most important capacity, however, is the capacity to understand. That is what is troubling this world.

We lack the capacity to understand people who do not think as we think. We confine so much of our Judgments upon surface knowledge. We can well go a long way with the one who we feel has the capacity to understand That makes the patient teacher, and makes possible the genius for lasting friendships. None of us knows his own capacity, however, nor do we know the capacity of anyone else, even though we think we do. The more we learn, the more we are stimulated to Increase our capacity, not only to know more, but to understand better.

Responsibility enlarges the capacity of anyone, or shows up 1U lack. It was indeed a limited lew who saw in the ability of Abraham Lincoln the latent capacity to rule a great nation. And how that capacity for understanding, patience, tolerance, courage, and tact increased with the years, as greater and greater responsibility was added to his shoulders to bear! And how outstanding his humility through those tragic years! Here was an outstanding example of a man who seemed to be born with the capacity to understand. What a weight of fear wouid fall from the shoulders of all humanity if it could but believe that Mr. Stalin had the capacity to understand the aims and Ideals of those who only want peace and the opportunity to live happily.

If he but had the capacity te understand that no nation upon this earth wants war, or to start one!
