The Citizen thinks that the best way to attain that end is to have the Chamber of Commerce, |™ other civic bodies and residents individually write to him and assure him that, though he will shortly > as Pres- ident, we wholeheartedly welcome him to visit us again. Republicans generally and some selfish Democrats are lambasting Truman. The opposing Democrats, chiefly in Texas and Louisiana, are more interested in oil than they are in good government. The Texas governor, as he | continues to harp about his going to vote for Eisenhower, | always rings in the tidewater oil rights along the Texas | coast. Principles, civic or political, may go with the wind, ; so far as he is concerned; he wants oil, oil, oil, for Texas. Because Stevenson sided with the United States Su- | i preme Court in its decision that the bottoms of coastal | waters belong to the people as a whole, not to any parti- | cular state, the governor of Texas and other Te cos keep on blaring they are going to vote for er, who favors giving the states control of tidelands. Stevenson courageously abiding by the law of ‘the land, as set forth convincingly by the Supreme Court, | whips up opposition of oilmen in Texas and Louisiana; Eisenhower falls in line with their selfishness and will get their votes. But Stevenson neither squirms nor re-| treats; principle to him is more important than the pres dency. The foremost of all Republicans, Lincoln, declare al that abuse is not argument; rather, it shows a lack of ar- | , sument. Republicans today seemingly forgotten | what Lincoln said in that regard. They are abusing Tru- man, hoping they will fool the voters into thinking it re-| flects on Stevenson. have But there is one thing the Republicans don’t do: they don’t question Truman’s integrity and courage. Not even the Russians have been able to bluff him. He said | “Stop!” while they were continuing to encroach on Eas ef ern Europe, and they stopped. As for his integrity, it is un blemished, and no attempt has been made to blemish it. | Let us try, Key Westers, to have Truman round an | a dozen visits to our Island City, SLICE OF HAM | political race ne ADMIRAL 3ig Wheel did not catch ¥ and on a recer monument, the rel = | my income tax.

It immediately brought to mind a starlet who found fame overnight and blossomed out with mink-lined swimming pools and | block-long limousines. But that descriptive phrase seems to be fading from the American lan- guage. Janet Leigh gives a hint | as to why: New stars can no longer afford to go Hollywood. I chatted with Miss Leigh at | the North Shore Tavern at Lake Arrowhead, ,where she and a few premiere of ‘Just For You,” the Bing Crosby-Jane Wyman workout. Above the din of the celebrants, were discussing the good old days | in Hollywood and the good new | ones. The question arose: How can today’s film stars, hampered by lower salaries, higher taxes and | bulging expenses, put up a front and appear to live like film stars? “They can’t,” Miss Leigh re- | | plied flatly. ‘‘There’s no sense in | trying, because it just isn’t pos- sible financially.” | She went on to describe how | she and her husband, Tony Curtis, live. It’s a Spartan life, compared | |to the lavishness of former days | in Hollywood. We live in a partment,” she remarked. “We | never go to the night clubs. Only recently have we gotten to the point where we each own a car. | “I don’t lavish money on clothes. |I bought some dresses in New | York last year and I’m still wear- ing them. The last dresses I bought here in Hollywood were last March. | Because clothes are necessary in | my business, I can deduct a cer- | tain percentage of the expense on one-bedroom money to buy.” | Having two paychecks coming | in is no advantage, she added; it | merely means more tax going out. | And they have numerous expens- es. “We must have a maid,” Miss Leigh remarked. “I can’t leave | | the apartment at 6:30 in the morn- | lfng, return at seven and do the cooking and housework. We must have a secretary. And we have to hire our own fan mail service. ios will help us answer but they won’t handle . We feel posteards are just as important, and so we take care of answering them ourselves. “This year we had serious drains s. Tony’s father was was on suspension from his studio. And he was sued by an agent in New York. To avoid a long and expensive suit, we settled for $5,000. It takes a long time for us to make $5,000 in the clear.” The blonde actress hinted that there are no longer the pressures | on young stars to go Hollywood. | ainly the studios don't | she explained. | ber when I had saved a little | money from my contract, after paying off some debts.

According to recent statements | by specialists in kitcher design, | these are simple essentials too often ignored because of a lack of | ture of kitchen operations. None of them adds materially to cost Here they are: | 1. Efficient arrangement. The proper relationship of equipment | and appliances to each other saves | steps in the kitchen. Ideally, the re frigerator should be located cen trally between range and sink. 2. Ease of cleaning. The greater | the use of easily washed materials such as tile, the more efficient the kitchen. 3. Good lighting. It has been} tures or lack of light encourage kitchen accidents and cause the homemaker fatigue. 4. Plenty of work surfaces Ap} Proximately eight feet of counters, | covered with stainproof clay tile, are considered the minimum for ; surfaces adjacent to the sink and | range. 5. Ventilation. The ,kitchen, be | cause of heat and odors, deserves | even greater attention to health giving airiness than any other room in the house. 6. Storage facilities.
