WASHINGTON AS SEEN
By Congressman JOHN PHILLIPS
An interesting change is taking place in these United States. It is a change in atmospheric pressure which would not register on a barometer. It is the "atmosphere" in the grass roots, about which I talked to you so frequently when I was home.
If you think these letters occasionally speak firmly on the subject of the administration's spending and tax programs, you should read the newspapers in the old Democratic south. As Mrs. Phillips and I drove across the country, stopping in various cities and reading local papers, even we were astonished with the tone of the editorial pages.
Here's one from the Charleston (S. C.) "News and Courier." I print it in its entirely:
"Undisputed Title
President Truman is now the acknowledged leader of the American High Tax Party."
The adjoining column had an editorial, raising the question why in times of prosperity and ease, if the welfare state is to be so desirable, crimes usually attributed to hardship and poverty have increased. I did not see an editorial.
J. J. Fitzpatrick, Spanish-American Vet, Passes Sat.
Joseph J. Fitzpatrick, a veteran of the Spanish-American war, passed away at the Long Beach Naval hospital on Saturday, December 31. Born in Ireland 72 years ago, he had resided in Anaheim for the past 29 years, and he and his widow making their home at 520 East Broadway.
Mr. Fitzpatrick was a member of Calumpit No. 26 of the Spanish-American Veterans Post in Santa Ana, and a member of Company E, 2nd Regiment of the New York Volunteers. He will be remembered for his active work, along with his wife, in the decoration of graves for Memorial Day services. Mrs. Fitzpatrick is an active member of the Spanish-American auxiliary and of the A. B. Paul Women's Relief Corps.
Surviving are his wife, Bessie I. Fitzpatrick of the home; three sons, Joseph of Bellflower, Russell of Phoenix and Lloyd of Tipton, Calif.; one sister, Mrs. Mary Egan of Connecticut, and four grandchildren.
Funeral services were held at Backs, Campbell and Kaulbars chapel Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock with members of the Spanish-American War Veterans in charge. Chaplain Bert Latham read the service for the last rites and full military honors were accorded at the graveside in Anaheim cemetery.
LOCAL MAN'S MOTHER SUFFERS ILLNESS
Mrs. L. J. Casey of Bucyrus, Ohio, arrived last Thursday in Arcadia to make her home with her daughter. The 93-year-old woman who traveled to California alone, was taken ill Monday. She is the
"Undisputed Title
President Truman is now the acknowledged leader of the American High Tax Party."
The adjoining column had an editorial, raising the question why in times of prosperity and ease, if the welfare state is to be so desirable, crimes usually attributed to hardship and poverty have increased. I did not see an editorial supporting the present spending and tax program. When we got to Washington, the taxi drivers, who are the recognized sources of gossip on the Federal level, reported a marked change in public opinion, adverse to the policies of the administration.
This is the "atmosphere" I talked about. You asked what to do, to help save the Republic from bankruptcy, with the inevitable loss of representative government. You wanted to know if you should write letters to your Congressman. I replied, (1) that I was your Representative, and knew from my many meetings with you how you felt; (2) that when you wrote other representatives on such a general subject, the other offices promptly and properly put "refer to" tags on the letters and sent them to the office of the representative from the district in which you live, and (3) that too many people who now write such letters seem to think that is all they need to do, and go back again into the apathy from which they emerged momentarily. I said that when the "atmosphere" changed in the grass roots, the men and women in Washington would know it very shortly and then, and then only, would we be able to stop the present trends of government.
I rise to remark that I sense that the "atmosphere" is changing. It might be well to think again of the objectives of the men and women whose courage and sacrifice gave us this form of government. I quote the following from a little bulletin called "Headlines" which comes, infrequently, to my desk: "It has happened before in history that peoples have been offered a choice between liberty and security. Whenever they have tried to make the swap, they have lost both. After all, Patrick Henry did not become a nation hero by saying, 'Give me welfare or give me death.' That venerable building on Philadelphia's Independence Square, which cradled the Constitution, was never named 'Security Hall.' The great bell housed with-

DOCTOR'S DAUGHTER HOME FOR HOLIDAYS
Jane Roberts, eldest daughter of Dr. and Mrs. B. D. Roberts, 555 South Walnut street, left Sunday noon for Galesburg, Illinois, where she is a freshman student at Knox college, after enjoying the Christmas holidays with her parents, two sisters and brother here.

Lighting scientists who have actually measured amounts of light necessary for utmost visual comfort know that the eyes need as much light when cleaning carrots at the kitchen sink as they require for reading small print for a prolonged period. One simple means of getting plenty of light over the sink is to install one of the small 75-watt spot lights in a socket on the ceiling directly over the sink. Complete the lighting arrangement by concealing the bulb from view with a decorative wooden valance.
