Uncle Sara Says Next to a stack of golden grain in the fields or a tree loaded with fruit, a farmer's proudest possession posses-sion is his stack of U. S. Savings Bonds. These Bonds enable him to oil up his financial machinery and maintain a reserve which Insures his home, land, livestock and equipment. equip-ment. His future Is secure. The wise farmer builds his financial reserve in Savings Bonds from profits when his crops are good. That reserve is the windbreak against a stormy period. pe-riod. And it grows, $4 for every $3 invested in ten years. U.S. Treasury Dcpirtmtnt i CAN ONE MAN LICK US? WHAT A SAP you are dear reader. read-er. WHAT a sapl You allow a person named Harry Bridges to come into your country from Australia Aus-tralia and place you in such a position po-sition that if you went to war with Russia, or any other Communist country, he could checkmate you. This fellow Bridges controls the I. L. W. V. (International Longshoremen and Warehouse mens' union, C. I. O.). Be is also president of a newly form ed organization In France which controls dockers in that country and Italy. It is a sweet setup: It could just about lose a war for as before we would bawe time to line up those members who wonld betray us. Do yoa remember what Bridges did to onr shipping while Hitler and Stalin were buddies? At the moment, Bridges and his t L. W. U. are apparantly trying to starve fellow-citizens in Hawaii. Aa Australian starving and threatening threat-ening Americans in their own country! Receiving little help from Washington, the Hawaian government govern-ment has taken matters into it's own bands; after over 100 days of torture by Bridges and his I. L W. U., it is slezing piers and doing it's own ship loading. But Mr. Bridges won't allow these ships to be unloaded when they reach here or anywhere else. An Australian on your land prevents pre-vents your ships from being unloaded un-loaded in your ports or anyone else's in order to starve your countrymen in Hawaii. 1 It's your fault, and this writer's, writ-er's, and that of every American Ameri-can who hasn't the common sense to write his congressmen and tell them that if they don't think up some way and quicklyto quick-lyto kick this fellow Bridges out of our country, they can expect to be retired to private life at the next election. Tell them yon don't intend to support sup-port a party which allows one man to endanger your country and to threaten yonr people and make them suffer. The flimsy excuse by the way for undermining one of our Pacific defenses is that the stevedores need more than $3360 for 300 days use of brawn alone. D. Carnegie Consider Other's Hobby THERE HAS COME across my desk a letter from a man h 1 England which illustrates a point I've made many tim,, in this column: how to turn a non-buyer into a buyer. The man who has written me the letter is John P. Harvey, Leicester, England. He was a pilot for six years in the Fleet Air Arm and was pretty experienced. He had tackled some hard problems. Wbn -ove war was over h- -vas married and in no time at all wasTpoppaTlJifrKraan't want to go back into his old work as engi. neer, so took a job as "commercial travel, ler," as it's called in England. He thought, with all the experience he'd had, that he would be able to sell without any 1 trouDie ai au. out ne mun i, umnc saies ana he didn't know why. He was a forceful talker and he had a good product to shout about There was a buyer for a large store named Harris whom he wanted to sell to, and he tried every way under the sun to win him over. But the man would not buy. John F. Harvey offered him special inducements. But no sales. This man was a "table tennis" nut He didn't want to talk about anything else. In fact, he was secretary of the county table tennis team. Mr. Harvey didn't like table tennis, and he told this man he didn't Not only that but he pooh-pooed it and called it "ping-pong" which put the other man into a deep freeze. Then one day an idea suddenly flashed over him. "Why not talk to the other man in terms of his own interest?" inter-est?" He then got a book on table tennis and began to read the table tennis news in the local papers. The more he read, the more interested he became; after alL there was something to this game. , By now he knew quite a bit about the once-derided "ping-pong." "ping-pong." This day when he went to see the buyer, instead of scorning tennis, he asked the man to tell him how his team was doing. The man stared, but he began to talk and when he saw that Mr. Harvey had a real interest, he expanded; he got up and showed trick shots and told what his team could accomplish, where one man was good and where another was weak. Mr. Harvey was tremendously interested. Why! the game was fascinating. Shortly thereafter the man placed an order. And, on top of this, Mr. Harvey took up table tennis. Other orders followed. follow-ed. Mr. Harris now thinks table tennis about the finest game in the world. And the two men play together and dint together and are great friends. i a ' J kt:.. -" - -W ::::::;::::: :-:-ia!--va " n Jrn : "Did you go to work, Desmond or did you leave me Intermountain Championship MOTORCYCLE RACING i IT'S NEW!
