Russia Is Selling Diamonds, Gold Russia is going to spend $19. 850.000,000 for defense during the current year it was reported from Moscow recently. (The appropri ation for defense for the United States is only $13,545,000,000, ai cording to the figure which Presi dent Truman has asked of Con gress for the fiscal year beginning Actually, it is difficult to com pan- the budgets of Russia and the United States respectively, since there is some difference in what the two countries include as defense items, and also the value of the ruble is questionable. Rws sia has appropriated 79,400.000,000 rubles for defense, and there is' considerable disagreement over just what the purchasing power of the ruble is. SLAB W OOD FOR s\i.r; ciifai*.

Saturday, July 22 Oak City at Bear Grass Other figures from the Russian budget for 1950 include the fol lowing: A surplus of 4,000,000,000 rubles is planned for this year; revenues are expected to hit 432, 000,000,000 rubles, and expendi tures 427,900.000,000. In 1949, re venues came to 437,000,000,000 ru bles and expenditures to 412,000, 000,000, leaving a surplus of 25, 000,000,000 rubles. This year rev enues arc expected to decrease be cause wholesale prices were re duced on January 1, and retail prices on March 1. This has some what raised the value of the ruble. The ratio of Russian military 1 expenditures to total expenses is 18.5 percent for 1950, compared to 32.8 percent for defense in 1940, and 24 percent in 1946. The term “good-bye” is a cor ruption of “God be with you,” ac cording to authorities. Social News I Attend Funeral Messrs. Bill Glover, J. W. Gar j ris, Ray Gurganus, S. P.
