‘‘Mister, Can You
Spare A Dime”
I make my rounds from day to day.
I pick up news and never pay.
I know I am, not just a cheat,
Or neither am I, a deadbeat.
By rights a paper I should buy.
And not sponge on the other guy.
The editor that runs the press,
I’m sure he needs it more or less.
So stop and think my fellow men.
Buy your own news, as best you can.
Don’t be afraid to spend a dime;
Pay as you go, from time to time.
That way a paper can expand,
When’s gets a dime from every hand.

Is Decreed By J.
Stalin Of Russia
(By The Associated Press}
MOSCOW June — Joseph Stalin
general secretary of the Political
Bureau, has made one of the most
important statements of Soviet pol
icy in recent years when he declar
ed that individual tastes and needs
must be respected on Soviet farms.
“As long as family and children
exist, these interests must not be
neglected", said Stalin in a declara
tion.
Rejecting the proposal of a group
of delegates to the recent Collective
Farm Congress to reduce individual
holdings of farmers, Stalin said: “It
is better to admit openly and hon
estly that there should be private
housekeeping on collective farms-—
small but private.”
He explained that this should be
in addition to the collective house
holds for the satisfaction of common
needs.
Stalin told the proponents of re
duction that they represented a min
ority view. “You are facing a mass
collective movement embracing mil
lions of households, he said. If you
want to succeed under present con
ditions, you must think not only of
the collective but also the individual
interests of the farmers.”
The policy of squeezing the farm
ers will not do, Stalin declared, say
ing that it was wrong.
