Now I lay me

THE hair so like young corn silk draws appealingly back
into the little pony tail. Lashes droop demurely over
eyes in which, all day, small lightning fires of mischief
flared and flashed. A chirrupy little-girl treble quavers . . .
"God bless Mommy. . . God bless Daddy ...”
You listen. In this moment you understand truly why you
were put upon this earth. And as you hear your little girl
at her prayers what wouldn’t you do to keep her world
always warm and confident and secure?
Give love? Of course —first and always!
But, because you’ve grown up in a tough world, you know
you have to give material protection, too. And one of the
finest forms of material protection is a steadily growing pile
of U. S. Series E Savings Bonds!
Bonds pay good interest — 3% compounded when held to
maturity. They’ll earn for as long as 19 years and 8 months,
paying you 80% more than you invested!
Bonds offer the world’s easiest and surest way to save when
you invest in them through the Payroll Savings Plan. On
this Plan you can pick any amount you wish (as little as a
couple of dollars a week) and have your company’s pay
office save it out of each check. This is invested in Bonds
which are turned over to you. And you’ll find you can save
successfully no matter how many times you may have tried
before and failed.
You can also invest in Bonds automatically where you bank.
Your little girl, or your little boy, needs all the protection
you can give. Build it for them, with U. S. Savings Bonds!
Safe, as America

American Writer
Of Spy Charges
MOSCOW, (/ft—The Soviet gov
ernment has exonerated Ameri
can writer Anna Louise Strong of
spy charges filed against her in
1949. The official Tass News
Agency says she was framed by
Lavrenty P. Beria, the Russian
police boss who was executed in
1953 as a traitor.
A Tass announcement Friday
night said an investigation had
proved that the charges against
Miss Strong—who defended the
Red cause in more than 25 years of
writing—were “without grounds.”
Miss Strong was arrested and
deported from the Soviet Union.
The action caused a sensation at
the time and was never fully ex
plained. Even she never detailed
what her difficulties were about.
In Los Angeles, Miss Strong
said she was delighted at the Rus
sian announcement.
“I am very glad they found out
there was nothing against me,”
she said. “I always thought that
some time they would get this
cleared up.”
Miss Strong has lived in Los
Angeles since her return to the
United States. She said she would
go back to Russia “if any news
paper, news agency or publishing
house would like to send me to do
a series of articles.”

New Washing Detergent Is Pink
_■ r r- '
The term synthetic detergent
is so familiar to all housewives
it’s hard to believe that only 20
years ago no one had ever heard
of it. Before that, for 2000 years,
soap was the only cleaning prod
uct known Homemakers in hard
water areas were more or less re
signed to problems of soap film
that left a dishpan ring Then,
20 years ago, a revolutionary
product was developed. It dis
solved grease in dishwater, left
no dishpan ring, no filmy cloud
on china or fine glass-ware, no
soapy film on rinse water This
new product was called a syn
thetic detergent. It’s name was
Dreft, and it was the forerunner
of many household detergents
developed for both laundry and
dishwashing.
Now, this original household
detergent has undergone a com
plete change It’s pink —like a
lotion It makes water feel like a
lotion and is excellent for dish- ,
washing not only because of its
new grease cutting action, but
also because it is so mild. More
effective than ever in either hard
or soft water, this new pink
product can also be used in the
washing machine for all items
that need special care like baby
clothes, diapers, dainty under
things, or man-made fiber* like
orlon, dacron and nytas
