We've missed seeing Alice around our subdivision since she has been working. Now with retirement from her job as a waitress in the offing, she will have more time for her own activities and can enjoy life again. First on the list is to get her roses back to their original splendor. She will also be able to attend more meetings of the Women's club of which she is a past president. Jim, who is a, carpenter, has been most helpful in building bus shelters for our kids. He also built the original life guard perches which have disappeared recently. The Quaivers and their three children, Joyce, 17, Jimmy 12 and Brad 5, moved to Lakeland Park about five years ago from Chicago. News -- News .

"LET THE BUYER BEWARE" APPLIES IN ECONOMIC IDEAS State laws provide heavy penalties for persons who sell impure foods. Laws also require that feeds sold for livestock be subjected to a chemical analysis and that the analysis be-printed on every bag or shown on a tag with every truckload. Peddlers of economic and politieaMMeas are not regulated by laW Their claims and proposals can be as phony as a $3 bill. And they often are. The citizen's only defense again s t fallacious economic and political ideas is a skeptical and inquiring mind. In lawyer's lingo. "Caveat emptor." That's Latin, meaning "Let the buyer beware!" Let the citizen beware lest he be sold a bill of goods which will not, do what is claimed, and for which he must pay dearly in taxes or otherwise. .We' see many of these ideas fever-v month. For instance, it is often promised that if farmers would just "get together," Congress would solve their income problems. Farmers were told the same thing in the 1920s. In 1933 farmers did get together. And RESTAURANT OPPORTUNITY BRAND NEW LOCATION on Southeast Corner -- Routes 31 & 176 Can have seating capacity of approximately 40 people.

REPUFUICAN CROSS STATE'S ATTORNEY Congress enacted sweeping laws authorizing production, controls, price supports, direct payments,, dollar devaluation and even the soil bank (by another name then). But as everyone knows, or can find out by reading history, that legislation did not solve the income problems of farm people. The blasting drouths of the mid-1930s cut production and boosted prices for a while, but many farmers, especially those in the Great Plains, had little or nothing to sell. And before the beginning of World War II surplus stocks were bigger than ever before, and prices "of farm products were even lower on the parity scale than they are now. This is just one example of the principle that an unsound program will not work, even if it is supported by a bis majority. Another popular but fallaciuos claim is that farmers can solve their income problems by "adjusting production to demand." That sounds impressive, but what does it really mean? Economists seldom make such a statement. The expression is too vague to, be of much use in serious economic discussion. By "supply and demand" most people probably mean production and consumption. But any supply can be sold at some price -- sometimes low, sometimes high: It is said that other industries are prosperous because they adjust^roduction to meet demand. The coal rriiners and automobile manufacturers are frequently cited as examples. When we look at these industries we find that the miriiber of coal-mining jobs was reduced more than 50 percent from 1950 to 1958. And ov^r 90. percent of the corporations that manufactured automobiles in this country' have either failed or were forced to go into some other business." Many farm families h$v§ very serious income proWentt- We believe that the Congress, should adopt a program to help these families to earn adequate incomes. But we doubt that most farm families can secure satisfactory incomes simply kg "getting together" or "adjusting supply to demand." ' L. H.

FLEMING started a lone fight last fall to get a reduction in the mile high values placed on automobiles for tax purposes. When a tax on an automobile has hiked up from $32 last year to $48 this year . . . when an old jalopy tax increased from $10 to $15 FLEMING said this is too much and started a one man crusade. While our high-tax present senator was telling people around the counties that "Taxes cannot be reduced," FLEMING has succeeded in getting a reduction of $5.00 to $20.00 for every car owner in Lake County. (The tax reduction was announced by the County Supervisor of Assessments in a letter to assessors. It was reported in a front page story in the WAUKEGAN NEWS-SUN. Saturday, March 6th.) This tax reduction was started with a lone roice. The people joined In and made their wishes known to UE It R.EMIN* the elected members oI the County Board of Review. These elected officials responded to the just complaints of the people. Board members ordered the reduction of auto assessments 20% One man dedicated to the task did get results.
