Tientsin demonstrated the Reds’
’dominant military position.
| Deepening the government
'gloom was authoritative word that
both the United States and Britain
‘had declined to use their good of
fices to seek peace talks. There
!appeared no reason to believe that
France or Russia would heed simi
lar pleas. Conquest of Tientsin
after a month of siege and a day
of artillery bombardment cost the
government another 60,000 of its
dwindling troops and freed an es
timated 150,000 Reds for new op
erations.
Rails Cleared
The Communist radio stressed
the obvious fact that the capture
cleared a real route all the way
from Manchuria down to the
Yangtze river front before Nan
king.
This hurried, the continuing
flight of government offices from
this dejected capital.
It was learned authoritatively
that the bulk of government gold
and foreign currency already had
been moved to the island of For
mosa, more than 500 miles by air
southeast of Nanking. Generalis
simo Chiang Kai-shek was report
ed also to have sent many of his
personal possessions there.
Officials Move
The National Defense Ministry
planned to start moving its person
nel Sunday to Hengyang, more
than 500 mile ssouthwest of Nan
king. The foreign office was study
ing quick removal plans, &
Semi-offiical Chinese sources
said Foochow, more than 400 miles
by air south of Nanking, had been
chosen as a temporary capital
when Nanking should become un
tenable. Formosa is being saved
as an ultimate refuge if the gov
ernment finds itself unable to stay
on the mainland, fhese sources re
ported. . :
Antipathy of the residents plus
a well-developed Red guerrilla
movement were said to have fore
ed abandonment of plans to move
to the great southern center of
Canton. T. V. Soong, governor of
Canton's Kwangtung province, was
scheduled to confer in Nanking
Sunday with his brother-in-law,
the Generalissimo.
Every indication pointed to For
mosa as the final retreat of Chiang.
It was believed that, with the pro
tection of army, navy and air units
already being sent there, he hoped
to wait for future world events to
provide him with the necessary
support for a comeback.
The Romans made nfedicines
and a kind of cement out of oys

How to make your compliments
count—
First of all don’t be too lavigh
with them. No one really appre
ciates a compliment that comes
from the person who is alw
throwing them around.
When you can, praise an
in front of the person he !
most like to hear the corripli ‘
Remember that the cornpliment
that gets back to the person com
plimented by a roundabout route
is even more pleasing than one
given face-to-face. Everyone is
gratified to hear from third per
son that someone has been sing
ing his praises.
Don’t qualify your compliments
in a way that marks them down
in value. “I like your hair much
better short than when it was
long” is hardly a compliment at
all.
DON'T FORCE IT
Don’t strive always to return a
compliment 'with a compliment.
Save vour own for another time,
when it won't look as though it
is just payment in kind.

Sales Tax
(Contirued froin Yage One)
If the more populous of the
state’s 159 counties opposed the
measure, their strength would not
be overwhelming either in the
assembly or the following refer
endum.
Sponsors said counties could
use the grants for schools, rural
roads or other purposes. Thus
some of them could use the money
for school buildings — one of the
items deleted from the minimum
Foundation program to pave the
way for grants to counties.
A spokesman gave three exam
ples of how the program would
work. Taking the first three coun
ties on its alphabetical list, he
said Appling would get $38,074,
Atkinson $27,000 and Bacon $21,-

Rep. Frank Gross, chairman of
the House Ways and Means Com

propose that the new tax pro

taxes. The sales tax would bring in
$30,000,000 and the income tax
$10,000,000. . s
