(UP) The Society for the Advancement and Encouragement of Mothers has a legitimate beet with horse-operas. Did you ever see a mother in a cowboy picture? Fathers, sure, but nary a mom.

"You'd think," says actress Nan Leslie indignantly, "that people in the west were hatched out of eggs." Miss Leslie has been in countless wild west pictures. She, often has a father, but she never has a mother. "That gives the villains a chance to kill off the nice old man," she explained, "and it gives the hero a chance to avenge his death. "That's me, always avenged, and never kissed. The hero always winds up in a clinch with his horse or gazing soulfully off to the mountains." That's why she needs a mother to advise her, she said.

Her poppas, in the pictures, always hold to the same theory that a girl should play second fiddle to a horse. Girls Don't Mind The young side-saddle set writes in a lot and tells her not to mind, she said. "Girls tell me that it's better to get a glance, or a smile from Tim Holt than a kiss or a clinch from some dandified drawing-room star," she -said. "I'm not really worried, though. In the first place, it's only a movie, and in the second place.

I've had chances at the other kind of parts. I won Robert Ryan in 'Woman on the you know." Miss Leslie and Tim Holt are appearing together again in RKO Radio's "Wild Horse Mesa." No mother in the cast, of course. She does have a father, but he's shot by bandits, thus giving the hero a motive to go through to the end of the picture. "You see," said Miss Leslie, "I should have a mother. They'd never dare to shoot her." and responsibility given to them.

Every foreigner on duty for us was regarded as another witness for the German belief that the United States did not intend to stay on the job in Europe, A change of six votes in the Senate would have defeated the proposal, which shows how close the decision was. Many an American who believes that service in the armed forces should be a matter of individual pride in time of war or emergency will hope for defeat of the Lodge amendment in the House. Congress is supposed to be discussing and voting selective service.

With three avowed candidates in. the Republican race, with an even chance that none of the three will be nominated, and with the incumbent president who is filling out an unexpired term facing the bitter, opposition pf a big segment of the Solid South, the situation in both camps is anything but a runaway for All such things as.

THE TRAGEDY OF MISSOURI Although mechanization of farms has decreased the number of horses and mules on farms from the 1920 high of 25,000,000 to today, more than 12,000 tons of steel is used annually to produce horseshoes.

A startling example of this is shown anybody. The post-war influence and the possibility and the imminence of another war in the not-too-far-distance, is sure to have an effect on the conventions and their choices for national leadership. The two years after the war, just preceding the presidential election has seen an unsatisfactory reaction in Congress, with both political parties legislating more for the effect in the presidential election rather than for the good of the nation. Every major issue before Congress has been approached from the political angle rather than for the needs in the important reconstruction period. In the light of the challenge before it, Congress has achieved little and has mutilated or destroyed much more, because of the effect on the approaching national election.

This is unfortunate, yet it is the role of the professional politician for whom "next election" is far more important than ships and armies, food and other phases of preparedness and national well being. Unfortunately the year 1948 will have elapsed before anything of more than moderate construction and importance can be expected of Congress.

International) WE SPECIALIZE IN HOME MADE SPAGHETTI YOU CANT EAT GRASS CLOSE TO HALF THE LAND of this nation would be useless for food production if it weren't for the breeders and raisers of livestock and the packers who start meat along the channels that end at the dinner table. You can't eat grass. By itself, it adds nothing whatever to the food supply. Meat animals, on the other hand, thrive and grow on it. Inedible grass becomes edible meat that keeps the country's larders full.

The dynamic general has made so many headlines there's more than a normal interest in his wife who calls Murf Tennessee, Not only that, but Washington, which likes its social intrigues houses the first wife of the general (Louise Cromwell Brooks MacArthur HeibergT it a la a tttavful wit Yuan try was begging for workers to man the country's industrial machine, and when the chairman of the War Manpower Commission stated, "We are at the bottom of the manpower barrel." 1 Figures show that in Missouri, between 1940 and 1945, there were two hundred thousand more jobs with three hundred thousand fewer workers available to take them! During October 1946, sixty-three thousand help wanted advertisements appeared in St. Louis papers. At the same time in St.

Louis, there were over four thousand, new claims filed for unemployment aid, and a weekly average of 13,741 persons on the "payroll" of the unemployment fund. A statewide survey of 236 companies revealed that the Industrial Commission paid over a million dollars in. unemployment compensation to' former employes of these companies from July 1, 1946 to July 1, 1947. During this same period these 236 concerns reported that 42 per cent of the 15,000 former employes who were paid out of work benefits would have been rehired If they had applied for their jobs. But they were paid unemployment compensation.

The tragedy of Missouri is that at a time when unemployment is at a minimum, unjustified claims are destroying the employment fund. The day may arrive when people legitimately out of work will be unable to get necessary assistance from the state. The humanitarian objective of unemployment laws will be defeated by the inherent tendency of human nature to get something for nothing while the getting is good, unless the people awaken to the danger. And Missouri is not alone in this respect. The threat exists in every level of government today.

It takes more than a year to grow a marketable, hog, and two to three years to grow a beef steer. Any considerable decline in our animal population would take a long time to make up. The only sound policy for American agriculture, in the words of the Secretary of Agriculture, is "organized, sustained and realistic abundance." Meat animals, which are the farmer's chief source of cash income, are also the backbone of a tremendous competitive industry Which processes the product for a profit of only a fraction of a cent per pound. Meat is a staple item in the American diet, and the whole process of producing it begins on grass-land, a great portion of which is useless for anything save the feeding of livestock. 0OME iBa TODAY Ml SEE IT MacArthur.
