The present impasse is a reflection on our community leadership, and emphasizes our inability to bury individual differences in consideration of common problems on which a decision is vital. As the matter stands today, there is nothing to hinder athe government from putting up the building on the present , j&ite, using the postoffice as it stands, as a nucleus for the Earger structure. This is exactly what we didn't want when Jhe first $40,000 was appropriated for enlarging the present ipostoffice. The $230,000 appropriation was secured because Jbl the feeling that a larger building should not be erected on 3Vir iroaonf pnrnor ''u Three years ago, a proposal to use the east side of the fpity and county building block met with unanimous favor, including the approval of the city and county commissioners, an office at that time. ' What has happened in the meantime to change the picture? It's high time that we get together at once and settle jghe matter, one way or the other. Al! the privately owned ,sites have been turned down. The only choice that remains Appears to be, either on the present site or on the northeasf igorner of the same block. Public purchase of a site is a re-ciote re-ciote possibility. Let's make up our minds!

Total, $51,665,000. They paid $1,154,000 into the state gasoline tax fund. that's more than one-third of the total. New Mexjco also went to the trouble of dividing up the Jollar the tourist spends, found this. Retail stores get 26 Cents; restaurants 21 cents; hotels and camps 17 cents; gaso- jjjne, oil, repairs '12 cents; confectionery and incidentals, 6 ients. k From these primary spending places, of course, the tour-just tour-just dollar finally was distributed into almost every New Mexican pocket, in one way or another. e More than $50,000,000 worth of new business from $50,-00 $50,-00 worth of advertising is something.

LEWIS, like his wife, seemed to be of a friendly disposition. "All I've heard," he said, "since that other night, has been a lot of stuff about some beautiful mama with golden hair." He sat slumped down in bis chair and looked at Jean with sly Impudence. "Is that right, Sandy?" she asked. "It's been .worse than that," said Sandy lugubriously. "It's getting me down. I'm wasting away to a shadow." "Too bad about you," she said lightly. "You. look healthy enough." The music stopped, and Bobby and Eve came back to the table. Bobby was duly introduced to Mr. .Lewis, and as they sat down Jean discovered that her conscience was trying to make Itself heard again. "You were Jealous when you saw Sandy with " Eve, but you weren't Jealous a bit when Bobby danced with her' said Con- science. "I won't listen to you any longer." said Jean firmly. A ripple of laughter greeted her as she emerged from this bit ot self-communion. Bobby had lust told some funny incident- or other that bad occurred that afternoon while he tried to sell an automobile to a pompous dowager. Mr. Lewis looked at him with Interest. "So you sell autos, do you?" he asked. "Well. I try to." "Mmm. Who you with?" "State Auto Sales, Incorporated." Incorpo-rated." "Uh. That's Mark Hopkins' igency. isn't it?" "Yeah." e f EWIS stared at the drink which the waiter put in front oi him, and held the glass cupped In his hand for a long time, study Ing it intently. "Listen," be said to Bobby at last. "You and I might be able to do some business, one of these days." Bobby leaued forward eagerly. "Yeah," went on Lewis. "I'm going to be needing a new car. Might as well let you sell it .to die, I guess." He yawned lazily. "That'd be swell," said Bobby. Lewis' continued to look at bis "TroiJl is," be said, "1 got a little leal to put over, first."

It was 10 o'clock. They left the night club and walked half a block td where a large, expensive sedan was parked by the curb. Lewis ..unlocked it and slipped in behind the wheel; and Jean wondered, won-dered, vaguely, why he fchould he wanting a new ear when be Already Al-ready owned such a fine one. Fifteen minutes later they drew up before an , ornate, apartment hotel on the western side of town. He left the car at the curb, ushered them into, the lobby and conducted them up to a sixth-floor suite.

But I've got to be careful what L do with em." He looked at Bobby.
