'* "A#- how big do we want governmc to be? Do we want a government that cost $7 peT capita as we had in the early day* or one costing $675 per capita as it is now? Or bigger? Do we want to channel up to 40 per Uent of the national. income through the government. Any government that receives 25 per cent pf the national income is dangerous to Its citizens' freedom, according to economists. Congress will never make our government smaller, says Norton. They like big government. They like to appropriate money. Congress had every opportunity to stop our present inflation right after the war, but didn't. Belgium froze \ 80 per rent of existing bank sf»vi«£:s accountsmoney people madf during the cooperation, are simple and. effect^ ANT1SPEED TRAP SCHOOLS SET U1WS IN THIS STATE r Anti-speed trap schools for police officers promise improved motoring this spring and summer. Basing its recommendations on success of the traffic law enforcement conference instituted recently in Bureau county by Calhoun W. J. Phelps, state's attorney of Princeton, 111., the Chicago Motor club and American Automobile association have surged similar practical sessions in\ all other counties of the state ai^d throughout the nation to pre trap abuses. The traffic enforcement/schools, as conducted by Phelps iwith club |an war. but had nothing they could buy with it. This stopped inflation cold. They . wor? smart. the U.S., loans to farmers up 40 per cent in 1950 and seven billion < dollars were loaned to commercial institutions. No country ' has ever left the vital question of currency management entirely up to banks and their customers before in history like our present administration has. On top of our 'present dilema the government will increase defense' spending. "People who know are convinced that Concrress will not cut the present budget." Norton said, "The military has the strongest lobby in Washington. They are spending money like a bunch of sailors on a four-hour shore leave with a fresh paycheck. Of course, defense is necessary; it Is the only thing Stalin understands, but it could Dr. L. J. Norton always rings! 1>p nn a ^ne- business-lifee the bell when he talks. The other day he dfe>ke- before the Northern Illinbis Land Council meeting at- Amboy. He said the easiest way •for us to be b^at by Stalin is by Inflation--Joe Will TVait (note the einphasis on the will wait) until we are up to our neck in dollar bills and then he will come along Mid shove us under and smother US to* death. Norton emphasized that Russia knows a quick war is the only kind that pays and they can't possibly pull that on the U S He said. "Do you suppose Hitler ever had any idea cities like Hamburg were to be leveled .by us?" He certainly didn't; He intended for It to be all over, late in 1940. He took a long chance on our not seeing his moves in September 1939. when he went into Poland with his blitzfdreig. The Berlin Blockade was a trial War by Russia on us, but it was ffiscouraging to the Kremlin. OnrptoMera is decide ott-two things' fbr^he future. Do we "want flt. sound currency and do we want to subject ourselves to the di?"•- pllne necessary to achieve it? And basis with more effect than the present complete abandon of business principles." There * are a few deflationary factors in^the picture. 1. The price rise- was fast and probably has bout happened. 2. Goods bought ive. Traffic police officers, sheriffs and their deputies, police magistrates and county officials are invited. Provisions of the state and national vehicle laws are reviewed and clarified. Enforcement methods are analyzed Th,e rights of both enforcement officers and motorists are outlined and reestablished. A question-and-answer session brings out specific, problems of local enforcement. Examples of enforcement abuses pin point any objectionable practices developing oft" the highways. As a result, enforcement officers have a clearer understanding of their duties and responsibilities and standard, approved safety methods are established. "We are particularly gratified because this movement is qriginating in enforcement organisations themselves. Our experience over a long period of years in protecting motorists frbm speed trap abuses has been that state's attorneys the country over have the greatest influence in controlling methods of enforcement," Chaiffcs M. Hayes, club president, commented. "There must be stern treatment for the reckless minority whose vehicles, but to alftiply "prima facie" evidence of a violation by private car drivers. To legally convict the latter it must be proved that his speed was greater than warranted by traffic conditions. Phelps also Instructed magistrates that under the law they must inform arrested motorists of their legal rights; that they may be released on bond; their right <o a fair and impartial trial, by jury if they choose; a change of venue if desired; and the right to plead not guilty to the charge and employ counsel for the defense, or to plead guilty and accept the penalty provided by law. He emphasised t speed Ian arrost bfc a police officer does not necessarily mean ,the motorist is guilty of the offense charged. He must be tried and judged on the actual evidence. The Princeton traffic school program was endorsed by the American Automobile Association national touring board, meeting in Washington.

War tension will ease. --.. He says our foreign policy has been extremely effective in Europe but not in Asia. Cuts can be made in defense and foreign aid, by stop ment of the vast majority of lawabiding motorists who may unwittingly fall into minor violations having little or nothing to' do with traffic safety." Prosecutor Phelps brought out several important enforcement provisions which are generally disregarded, Hayes pointed out. He explained in detail that arrests under the IHnois law must be made Rent increases to landlords continue in the forefront of the rent control picture, according to "J. Edwin Porter, associate area rent director. In the first two months of 195i the Waukegan .branch rent office granted 252 rent hikes. This represented 92 percent of all petitions received. Mr. Porter attributed the showing to two factors. He pointed out that rent control Is not tied to tie price and wage formula but is governed by the Housing and Rent Act of 1950, which specifically requires rent relief to landlords wherever justified. One provision Assures landlords a fair net operating income, which means they can get higher rents for higher costs. "A second facter," he said, "is the straight 15 percent boost offered landlords in Lake county apd the 20 percent boost offered landlords in McHenry county who have had none since June 30, 1947, and of granting ' the dlffertlal to landlords who. have received less than that amount. This plan, adopted by our rent advisory boards to compensate for higher operating costs, continued to account for a majority of the increases granted^" "Fireproof Housekeeping Is Important" Starting right now you should go in for "fireproof housekeeping." Don't let trash pile up around your house and always keep it In covered containers. If you know you save time when an alert sounds, be sure to shut the doors and windows and pull down the shades. This will help keep out fire sparks. It. you have shutters or Venetian blinds, or heavy drapes, they will also provide some protection against harm from flying glass. Several other household precautions should be. taken promptly. Atomic bombs sdt off high above ground seldom cause breaks in underground gas or water mains. Jfowever, shaking and twisting of the buildings by the blast wave sometimes snaps off the household inlets at the point where they enter the basement. This may allow gas or oil to flow into your cellar. To lessen the dangef of fires and explosioiis that could result from this leakage, you should throw the electric switch that shuts off your oil burner. Your local utility companies can give you detailed instruqjttoas about your gas, pilot lights, and so on. If you have a coal-burning furnace or wobd stove, be sure to close all its fuel and draft doors. In other words, do all you can to prevent sparks and put out or cover open flames.
