ILBO ON THE SPOT if half of the batch of | charges against Senator, Theodore G. Bilbo of Mis-| Siwippi are half-true - he will likely be expelled from| the Senate to which he was recently reelected. The! hewspapers and columnists are reporting that the Bilbo! election was “tainted with fraud,” and “achieved by force and violence and the fr of criminal extralegal | and illegal tactics.” Bilbo is notorious. He ad- mits that he is a member of @ Ku-Klux Klan; he is ac-{ cused and will have to de-| feyd himself against specific charges that he was bribed by war contractors and car-| ried on a campaign for re-| elettion’ in which he en-! waged in bribery of the| voters, \ | SUGAR SH ORTAGES Many years ago Louis- tana cut quite a figure in raising cane sugar. Then the industry began to spread out and became quite im- portant in Florida, parti- eularly in the Everglades, watered -by Lake Okeecho- bee. In the latter locality there was positive proof that all the sugar our country needs could be grown+in the United States. It was pretty easy to jockey the tariffs on Cyfhan sugar, and give a monopoly on the product to Cuba, Hawaii and the Phil- ippines. That is exactly what was done, year after year, by Republicans and Demoerats. ' | That's why you can’t get eane Sugar at the local groc- ery store even late in the year of 1946.

Con-j} gress, the legislative branch of our government, is ex- ceedingly strong, but a bare} majority of one party or the! other, is of no consequence if the man in the White; House is not of the party with the bare majority.

David Hill, when he yo governor. of New York, em-} phatically proclaimed, “Tam| a Democrat!” But it would, have been just as inconse-| i quential had he declared, “I am a Republican!” Fifty years or so ago it be said that the, Democratic party was the poor man’s party and the Republican party was the rich man’s party, but the | Democrats, when they got; into power, rubbed elbows with the rich, and the Re- publicans rubbed elbows with the poor. Indeed, dur- ing campaigns, Republicans used to shout that they were | really the poor man’s friend. As a rule, a Democrat is} a Democrat because his) father was a Democrat, and} a Republican is a Repub- lican because his father was| a Republican. It’s heredi- tary, much like family re- semblance. Advertising in The Citi-j zen is profitable to those who have something useful to sell at a fair pric ou ever come} across anyone in an argu- ment who, simply will not admit he is wrong, regard- less of proven facts? AUTOMIC BOMB NOT ENOUGH Prof. Harold C. Urey, no- ted scientist, points out that the atomic bomb can be used neither as a_ police weapon for maintaining peace nor as a weapon for! a “preventive” war. He says that the atomic; bomb is not an approp weapon for these purposes. Obviously, it is too powerful to use to keep order, and in the event of a war, most of Europe would be occupied by the strongest military power, which happens, at, this time, to be Russia. : In such an event there would be no sensible use of } sians, safely ensconced in surrounding lands, would not suffer as much as the; unfortunate inhabitants of their occupied area. So what? Apparently, if the atomic bomb is not to be used in warfare it be- hooves this nation to be pre- pared for the conventional type of warfare. This is not: being done in any thorough | fashion and seems unlikely to be undertaken by the Notes (Promissary), 1c each, Art- Ann, the officers theorized, borrowed the boy friend’s auto to! drive to. the bus station — and went on to California.
