You
It's up to you! Whatever the question be, whatever crucial problem confronts the country today—either from within or without—the solution is up to you. For in"eithei* a republic or a democracy the power is vested in tlie individual
—and that means you! When we speak of national unity, we
mean national cneness—a cohesion of-all elements into one.
You are that one!
Through your vote you have the power to effect whatever changes you wish. Your vote is as potent as that of any
man in the country. But if you neglect to vote—do.n't complain of the government that is elected.
Yours is the responsibility. You can't expect cooperation
if you are not cooperative. You can't expect fair play unless
you are willing* to play fair. You can't prate about discrimination if you discriminate against 'Others.- You can't whine a-
bout taxes and then complain when you don't get tlie service
you expect from the government of your choice.
You have to be kind. You have to be tolerant. You have
to work. It all begins and ends with YOU
Neither industrial disputes nor international problems
can be settled from the top. You have to begin with yourself.
To achieve cooperative action, you yourself must be willing
to coperate in the problems of every day living.
But you must stand firm on the ideals in which you believe. You must be articulate i'or the right, and—if you are—
you can be a power for good in yourself.
S ome Will A Iways Do It
Since tlie war, crying the business blues lias become ii
chronic complaint with many Americans. Despite the string
of boom years, economic pessimists have periodically hit
the headlines with forecasts of calamity. In 1949, they said
gloomily, production would drop, unemployment would climb.
But as the year draws to a close it becomes apparent that
the prophets of doom have concentrated a bit too much on
the dark spots i.n the economy. Though production has dipped
somewhat below previous peaks, it is still high. And while
unemployment has increased somewhat, employment has
stuck close to the record height of 60,000,000. Incomes have
topped peak 1948 marks, and sales of many manufacturers
have chalked up new highs.
The impact of the steel and coal strikes, of course, has
taken some of the starch out of the economy, but as we approach the Christmas season the overall picture is far from
dismal. As recently as mid-September production workers in
manufacturing industries attained their second highest income level on record—a,n average of $55.64 a week. Add the
fact of an accumulated savings backlog of $220 billion and
you have at least some reason for optimism for the new year
too. Recent stock market action, incidentally, seems to offer
some confirmation: it hit a new high for the year in the last
week of October.

ix-Ambassador To Prague Returns To U. S.
JAMES PRICE INJURED
IN ACCIDENT SAT.
A Sensible Plan
There is a growing" tendency over the country to tighten
up on car drivers and require a more complete examination
before a driver's license is issued. One thing in regard to driver's licenses should not be overlooked. Some people have a
tendency toward accidents and careless driving. They will
never under any circumstances become safe drivers. Casualty
companies recognize this and soon refuse insurance to an incompetent driver. The only cure for drivers of this type is
a cancellation of their driving license. As long as they are
permitted on the road behind the steering wheel of a car they
are going to, constitute a menace to not only themselves, the
passengers in their car but to all other car drivers. No good
cure has ever been found for habitual carelessness. Its presence indicates a mind unable to function properly in the
midst of modern,traffic. Some one has suggested that for the
first.offense such drivers be deprived of the right to drive
a car for one year. With the second offense the license should
be suspended for two years, the third four years and so on.
In this way these drivers would be give.n a chance to improve
their driving technique, and, if they were unable to do so,
would eventually be legislated off the highways of the country. It sounds like a sensible plan.
Taft vs Truman Fight
The battle between the viewpoint of President Truman
and the middlegmund adopted by Senator Taft, is already
shaping up, and.is certain to be an epic struggle. Historii|
domestic issues, scarcely analyzed in the national elections
of the past eight years because of the overshadowing importance of foreign affairs, are finally coming into the limelight.
They are sure to play the dominant role in the discussions
which will arise in every American household before any
voter casts his ballot for the ^rid Congress.
Certainly no question will be more hotly argued than the
Taft-Hartley Bill. The President has been stubbornly demanding its repeal despite' the evidence that it has been an
effective measure. Senator Taft has insisted publicly that
the rank and file of labor are afraid of ostracism if they state
their real views on the Taft-Hartley measure, _and that only
the professional leadership is i.n violent opposition to the
curbs on their power contained in the bill.
Whatever the outcome, we are certain to witness a statesmanlike presentation of the grave problems' ahead of our
country in the immediate future. The Taft-Truma,n fight of
1950 may be a prelude to the still bigger battle of 1952,
Mr. James Price of K. D. 7,
North Canton, suffered a fractured
left leg, possible rib fractures, possible fracture of the right leg and
deep leg cuts, la.te Saturday afternoon when he lost control of lib:

Two North Canton Athletes
Ebel and Studer Honored
At. the Annual Oberlin College Football Banquet. Monday evening, November 21, two North Canton students received football letters.
Mr.  Robert Dean Ebel, son of Mr. and Mrs. Myron E.
Kbel   of   214    West    Maple   St..   1
eeived   his   thiid   lootball   letter  as' g± ■ g±a     m

conditioning     program,
mail,  was  raised to  2c  last Jam;
ary.
So don't try to mail this year's
Yule greetings with 17c stamps
left over from last Christ;m.at\ he
cautioned. All sorts of embarrassing things  may  happen—
Your mail carrier may retui n
the cards to vou stamped, "Insufficient  Postage."
Or they may be held until the
addressee supplies the additional
postage required by the new law
before the mysterious envelope—
which turns out to be vour "Merry
Christmas" wish—may be delivered to him.
Or your cards ,may be shunted
into the Dead Letter Oll'ice, if
they're deposited at the peak of
the Chri.-4.mas mailing rush and
they bear no return address.
To preserve your cheery Christmas cards from these indignities
the Postmaster recommends sending them all by first class mail.
That means with a 3c stamp—or
two l'L'C. stamps!
First class mail rates "directory
service," by which skilled post office clerks try to trace addressees
who have moved. Your card may
be forwarded from one address to
another, if the addressee isn't located, the card will come back to
you if the envelope bears your return address.
Christmas cards carrying 2c
sta.mps are third class mail. They
must not be sealed and must not
contain uersonal messages. Only
one effort is .made to deliver them
If the address proves incomplete
or incorrect, your warm-hearted
Christmas- greetings land in 'the
Dead Letter Office.
"One of the saddest sights on
Christmas Eve," says- the Postmaster, "are the many undelivera-
ble Christmas cards. Each represents a bit of lost Yuletide sentiment. Practically all are the result of carelessness. Especially illegible handwriting, inadequate addresses, and stamps that fall off
en route because they weren't affixed properly.
"Please address plainly and completely," he emphasizes. "Give the
'full name, house number, street,
name of eity, zone number, and
State. Many emergency clerks and
carriers are required to handle the
heavy Christmas load, and tlv*y
haven't time or experience to figure out scrawled addresses that
would  puzzle a  bill collector."
And donlt forget to write your
return address on the envelope.
The Postmaster said return ad-
dress.es. on Christmas cards has tbe
warm approval of the highest authorities on etiquette, because it
helps friends keep -their address
books up-to-date.
Cards receive more considerate
handling if they're mailed before
the peak Christmas rush, the Postmaster pointed out. Greetings for
out-of-State delivery should be
posted by December 15, and for
local delivery at least a week before  Christmas
