man (Leonard Hall hag made the
moat optimistic prediction concern
ing President Eisenhower's plans
for 195fr yet made by a high Re
publican official. And since Hall
is the highest Republican party of
ficial; Rafter , the President, , his
statement should have been gignifi.
Curfoualy,'-' however, the Hall
statement, made on one of the last
days of November, created' little
excitement, in the stock market.
iJfeservers still believe if the Presi-
Jdenjt ' suddenly announced he was
runlning again in 1956, business
confidence would increase and the
stocK market reflect this immedi
ately. -;- But Hall's' statement was
Allowed by - a day of declining
stock market prices.
Hall's statement is not the only
encouragement for Ike's backera.
There ; are authoritative reports
that a group of highly influential
Republican leaders, including Cabi
net Jhembers, are preparing a draft
t$ get Ike to run again. '" And if
Mr. Eisenhower's recovery contin
ues as it has been doing, he may
fjnd.it almost impossible to turn
such a draft down. ,
The i reason why he could not
easily turn such a plea aside is the
factjthat it lay squarely on the
Chief Executive that he alone can
save the Republican party from be
ing placed in a disadvantageous po.
sition in 1956 elections. It will
point out, among other things, the
Eisenhower Administration farm
policy has; not produced satisfac
tory results as i yet ,

better to meet and talk to the
Russians, rather than carry on the
cold war while not having any conT

that' the United States did not lose

Levite likewise justified his omis

the rendering of service to one in

NOT! CE!
MAY WE SAY THANKS, to those of our custom
ers who have been so considerate as to keep their ac
counts for KEROSENE, FUEL OILS, ETC., in such EX
CELLENT CONDITION.
The very close margin of profit in these products,
necessitates what we term, quick turnover, in order to
realize a fair profit for our endeavors, however, at this
time of the year, WE ARE TAKING INTO CONSID
ERATION BY COMPARISON, that limited number of
purchasers who have neglected paying their accounts,
and by mutual consent, we will make no deliveries to
those in this catego.ry until some satisfactory arrange
ment has been made for these items, we will also report
each to the other, any accounts who become delinquent
from time to time.
We have no desire to seem unappreciative or unrea
sonable, but we find this position necessary.
