EUROPE’S ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT The United Nations’ Economic Commission for Eu- rope recently published a survey covering the first quarter of 1952, dealing with the economic policies of European nations. The survey shows that industrial production and employment fell off in all major European industrial companies except in France. Even in France, however, the export vo rapidly shrinking and it is this trade that earns European nations vital dollars. The Commission believes the Euro- pean economy is presently incapable of suppressing infla- | tion without becoming stagnant. It also believes the Eu-! ropean economy cannot meet the present demand for capital goods and is devoting too many resources to the production of consumer goods that sometimes prove yn- salable. Perhaps the most discouraging factor is the increas- ing total of imports from the dollar area by both Earo-} pean countries and overseas sterling areas — which have increased greatly in the last year. There are only itwo noints of encouragement in the survey. Coal production has intreased§ cynsiderably and the severe steel shortage has cesed in G##at Britain. Despite these strides forward by Great Britain, the Commission believes British industry has generally failed to reach an efficient stage in the production of capital goods, which, in turn, handicaps the European effort to) balance imports. } The Commission report is unusually gloomy and while it contains no prediction of a European depression, it carries with it a strong warning that the economies of , most European nations are on unsound ground. Americans, who have contributed so much toward | the rehabilitation of European industry, are disappoint- | ed in this report and interested in the steps European} nations take to remedy the situation. A failure by these countries to improve and stabilize their economies could make the U. S. aid program of the last few years seem | like a bad investment. i If the European nations allow such a situation to} develop, they run a very real risk of alienating American public opinion and losing the economic support which has contributed so much to their recovery in recent years. s lume was | Thursday, September 25, 1952" Death Plane OF Lt.

Danny recently teamed with Dor- is Day in “I'll See You in My Dreams,” a moving picture it which Danny played song writer Gus Kahn, grossed $182,000 one week, reportedly the record for a week’s business any place, any pic- ture. How does Danny explain this? “Doris Day brought in 60 per ; cent of the business. The other 40 per cent came from word of mouth.” Danny also hinted his relatives and friends all saw the picture several times. “For some reason,” he said, “the | people who like me keep coming | to see me over and over again.

HAL BOYLE SAYS By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (#—In all the world there was nothing that Craig Bleak really liked. He was so mean that even’ the cat in his own home ached her back and spat whenever he came near. “Craig doesn’t really mean the things he says,’ his wife, Mary, loyally defended him, “It's his poor health.” But if anything had made Craig ill it was his spiteful nature. And in time he alienated everyone ex- cept Mary and Henry Holesome, who worked in the bank with him. Craig hated them both—Mary, be- ! with his name on it—that’s where it hurts him.” “Does it work?” asked Craig. “It does where I come from,” said Mayola. “Anything you be- lieve in hard enough comes true, Mista Bleak.” “T’ll give you $5 for that doll,” said Craig. He took it, and as Mayola happily held out her hand he said, “‘Don’t worry I'll pay you later—maybe.” The next morning at breakfast he put a scrap of paper saying “Henry Holesome” on the doll’s aw close. The telephone awoke |her. 4 “I have terrible news for you, Mary,” said Henry’s voice. ‘Craig ..Craig suddenly keeled over a few minutes ago. Before we could even get a doctor he—” Mary screamed. She dropped the telephone. “Mayola! Mayola!” she cried. She ran into the kitchen. It was empty. On the drainboard lay stretched a tiny doll. A nail protruded from its left chest and to the nail clung a scrap {of paper. Mary snatched up the j doll and read: “Goodbye Mista Bleak.’’ | Moral: Never tell your wife | where you keep your dolls. shoulder and stuck a thumb tack | By HAL BOYLE worth—and the customers all start- ed hollering for ‘The Wailing Sy- rian’ and all the other routines I had been doing for years.” About the word of mouth busi- ness of “Dreams,” Danny ex- pounded: “Here was a musical picture that was successful because it was be- lievable. “Take that scene where my wife goes to the hospital for the birth of our baby. I’m not there when I should be because I run across another song writer in a restau- rant. I stay out all night writing a song and don’t get to the hospital till after the baby is born. “I come to the hospital room. I want to tell my wife how much I love her. But what audience would go for tender loves words coming from a song writer with an ugly uss like mine? “So what do I do? I tell her I love her by singing the song ‘It Had to Be You’ in the little hos- pital room. “When I start, does a 60-piece symphony orchestra suddenly break out of nowhere to accompany an inkling of the difference be. tween right and wrong. We can af- ford to get slammed around and— if dirt is thrown at us—well, you can’t tarnish something that has already been kicked around in the slime pits of the world. If we win, the general public benefits; if we | lose, the public can laugh at us and still keep its ideals of undefeated church leaders. Is Rev. Rogers Right? Reverend Ralph Rogers has made the statement that if the dog track is permitted in Monroe Coun- ty it will be a sign that most church members in Key West did not vote. I disagree with him. It wouldn’t be nice to say this publicly of course, but just between | you readers and myself, some of | the most two-faced blackguards in | the City of Key West pretend to be loyal church members. They'll slap their preacher on the back and a- gree with everything he says. After- wards they will roam the dark al- leys — living proof of the iniquitous | depths to which man can allow himself to sink. | LSS SLOPPY JOE'S BAR invous | Starring The Fabulous MARCELLA LYNN AND JEANIE CHRISTIAN, CATHY CARROL, IN THE SENSATIONAL MARI JUANA DANCE AND SANDRA LANE AND A HOS OF OTHERS: Dancing To MARK STANLEY'S TRIO Never An Admission or Minimum Charge STRAND ...oiinee Thursday - Friday - Saturday THE STORY OF WILL ROGERS with JANE WYMAN AND WILE ROGERS, JR, Coming: LADY IN THE IRON | ing around here—the fool’s in love | tin cause she stood by him; Henry, | into it. because he kept rising in rank; “I'll fix your lover boy,” he told while Craig remained in his same | Mary. old post in a teller’s cage. “I know why Henry keeps hang- | she said.
