STRICTLY PERSONAL Bf wmui JOMKS Continued Timm Editorial Pi|* thing else? on Ideas, a trip probably always pays (or itself in dollars and cents. So I say: By all means, take a trip. And the best time to start is not later than tomor row! Go to the Grand Canyon or Mexico City or Newfoundland, if you can. If that's too ambi tious, then what about New York or Washington? II those are a little "rich for your blood", then I'd recommend At lanta or Raleigh or Ashevllle. (It doean't have to be a city, of course; ideas arent confined to the centers of population.) If even those are out of the question, then go to Clayton or Bryson City or Highlands or Franklin or Prentiss ? or your neighbor's farm. But take a trip! And when you go, I'd suggest you bear in mind that the most Important part of any trip is seeing and meeting and talking with as many people as pos sible ? preferably all kinds of I people. ikntvAclty SELL IT THRU THE WANT ADS rHE FRANKLIN PRESS PHONE 24 Newt Making (MM ma Editorial rage the River" sectldfa ,as my cbl league, Mr. Jonet would ha^ It), one for the fiew line which it now being constructed and come* to the river Just past the Friendship Tabernacle, and one at the present filter plant below Rivervlew street, or run a lot of pipe to consolidate the three at one plant. The present water rate and sewage charge at times have seemed high to me, but now they seem necessary. If it's legal, it would seem to me that it would be a good Idea to try to realize a small profit from , their water and sewage system each year; place this profit in government bonds and begin to I accumulate money to meet this 1 need. There will be those who I will say that it is all wrong for the town to gain a surplus in , this manner, but isn't that the 1 way that business would meet 1 the problem and it it's good business for business to operate in such fashion why wouldn't it be good business for the town? i > * - ' Si I President Eisenhower showed I that he meant what he said ! concerning appointing the best men available for the job when he nominated Charles E. Bohlen as ambassador to Russia. Mr. Bohlen has long been recogniz ed along with George Kenan as one of the best informed men in the United States concern ing the Intricate problem* of dealing with the Russians. However, a group of Republi cans are holding up this ap pointment because he worked under Democratic administra tions. If he has gained any ex perience In this field In the past 20 years it had to be und er Democratic administrations. I hope that the former General will get his back up and say to these partisan senators that he is distressed that they do not see fit for our government to have any representation in Moscow at a time when we sorely need to gain Informa tion concerning the motives of the Red government by any means possible. But he has named the best man he could find for the job and he doesn't see fit to accept a second rater in this important Job to satisfy the political whims oi some Senator.
