Luang Chart Nakrob they must not meddle in internal poli- ties because it i$ their duty to prepare themselves for’“the gold war that lies ahead.” “At present, the struggle is now merely a verbal one between those supporting opposing politi- cal doctrines,” ' the minister told 23 lieutenant colonels just grad- uated from the Army Staff Col- lege. ‘ “Each day this verbal struggle can be sé€en developing into what in the near future will be a real struggle of force. Once the struggle has begun, there can be little question that Siam will be involved. Therefore, we must pre- pare. We must be on the alert. “In preparing for this struggle, | we must be careful not to med- ; dle in internal politics or allow ourselves to be instruments of politicians. “Our ideal must be that as soldiers we are not to meddle in | politics and to see that politics does not meddle with the armed forces.” row then came forth with the offer of her home. Reservations continued to pour in, as a result the plan to have the party at the homes was abandoned and the Navy officers club was obtained.

Equalization Board To Meet Tuesday, July 5, the Monroe county equalization board will meet to hear any complaints as to assessments from taxpayers concerned. County Attorney Asked To Investigate Matter After County Clerk Earl R. Adams notified the Board that 27 . parcels of land in the county are now two years in arrear of taxes, since tax certificates were issued in’ June, 1947, the Board named County Attorney Paul Sawyer to see if the taxes could be collected before any action is taken by the Board. After Sawyer’s report to the Board, the county commissioners have only two alternatives. They ; can authorize the county attorney to make application for tax deeds, or simply allow the matter to drift. The board was emphatic in its decision not to foreclose on homesteads. It has not yet reach- eda decision on non-homestead property.
