We often talk of Americanism, but what is ii? In the first place it Isn’t dictatorship. We should realize this and gnard very strongly a- galnst such. No spirit of dictator ship should be cherished In the least by anv American citizen. Atheistic Russia, with her dictator ship, her Communism, her desire to gain control over us. is to be watched. Not only that, but we must pray for God to keep us from such fate, and to save her if pos. sible. In ihe second place real Ameri- canlsm isn’t the imposition of un just laws upon her citizens, nor the granting of license to those who would make drunkards of us and our sons and daughters, or dealing out that which would injure us physically, morally and spiritually Anything that injures, curses, blights, wrecks and destroys the lives and homes of our people ab solutely isn't real Americanism It Is foreign to genuine American principals What is real Americanism? It is that principal and doctrine that all men are created eqnel and shauld have eqnal rights, especially reli gionsly, educationally and finan cially. It is then left to us as in. dividuals as to how we use our rights and privileges. Real Ameri canism grants us religious liborty. freedom of speech and the press. This should never be trampled down nor stamped out. Real A- merlcanism accepts the Bible as the. inspired and infallible Word of God, and this has made us great in mind, heart, soul and spirit. AU who despise and oppose the Bible, or reject it, certainly register their lives and inffnence against real A- mericanism, and that which has mnde os the most wonderful na tion on earth. All who seek to undermine the faith of our people In God and His holy Word are not true Americans. Absolutely. Real Americanism is expressed truly on our monev: "In God we trust.” We thus acknowledge God as the Supreme Being, the Creator, the rightful owner and controller of our lives and sub. stance, and the Savior of our ouls. All true Americans stand faithful ly by God and the Bible, onr rights and privileges, and stand for our flag the fleats "e’er the land of the free and the homes of the brave," Am en. Ik. If.

The mess on the stove sample of Kier1B Rock Oil,4- States Increase Benelits Legislatures in 22 stales last year increased amounts which must be paid workers in compensation for on-the-job injuries, the Council of State Governments reports. Sixteen states now pay up to SSR a week compensation. In five states a maxi mum of $20 a week is paid for tem porary disability. Six states passed laws last year providing improved medical care, while death benefits for dependents of those killed in occupational accidents were in creased in 20 slates. In addition, six states enacted laws giving protec tion against loss of health from occupational diseases, bringing the total of states with such legislation to 3!). Laws creating funds to com pensate for second injuries were passed in six stales, bringing the total in this group to 38. was a patent medicine in which Sam had invested heavily but which tasted so vile that few people would buy i t Kier was trying to salvage his investment by seeing what would happen if he ran the unsavory stuff through a primi tive still. As the petroleum oegan to boii vigorously, Kier slapped a home made “worm” on top of the kettle A dribble of colorless liquid ran out of the still. He touched a match to it and the liquid burned slowly. Inspired, he pul some of it in an empty whale oil lamp The lamp glowed brighter than it ever had before! That was how Sam Kiei dis covered kerosene and became America’s first petroleum refine: The petroleum industry, which is paying tribute to Sam Kier1 to all of his successors and to the pio neering spirit of the American people as a whole during the ob servance of “Oil Progress Day” on October 14, has come a fabulously long way since those ante-bellum years. Instead of a handful ot strug gling companies, the industry now consists of 34,000 competitive firms. Instead of one well—that brought in by Colonel E. L. Drake at Titus ville, Pa., in the summer of 1859- oil cpmpanies have drilled around 1,200,000 wells and oil is produced in 25 states. Some 428,000 of these wells are producing oil today. In stead of a transport system con sisting ol a few rickety wagons and canal boats, the oil companies have a remarkable system of 150,000 miles ol pipelines, plus large fleets of ocean-going tankers, inland-waterway tankers, barges, railway tank cars and tank trucks. Instead of peddling their products in five gallon tin cans, oil men now include thousands of whole sale distributors, and operate a quarter million modern, clean and efficient service stations. Today, oil and natural gas sup ply almost naif of this nation’s heat and power requirements. From crude oil comes a grand total of more than 1,200 useful products—products which every one uses almost every day of his life. ‘Oil Progress Day” is being ob served this week. Members of the industry will report such things as the above to citizens of the communities in which they oper ate. Oil men are making that re port to call the attention of their friends, customers and neighbors to the fact that they operate in the American tradition of free, competitive enterprise. As a result they are doing an outstanding job in their efforts to contribute to America’s progress and well being. They are, in fact, echoing Sam. Kier’s cry: “We’re making progress.” Our County And Social Security Bv Mrs. R u th G . D uflv, Manager The Social Security Office has always been interested in working closely with emplooers. civic clubs, both men’s and women’s, an d other governmental and welfare agencies on a Social Security infor mational program. Much still remains to be done to ward tbis end Some workers and fac. lies of deceased workers and families of deeeased World War II veterans continue to lose benefits because they don’t know their rights under the Old-Age and Sur vivors Insurance, one of the pro grams continued in the Social Se curity Act. Consequently, a., con. tinuQUS..informational- -program on tbis provision of the Act is needed to inform people of their rights. You have many civic clubs and other communitv resources in your town and county. Social Security is just another of your community resources. How can you use it? Here are a few suggestions: 1. At the request of an employ er, president or program chairman of a civic club or agenev, a repre sentative of my office will be bappy to attend a scheduled meeting to explain briefly Old-Age and Sur vivors Insurance and tc answer any question on the program. The service is free as are all other ser vices of the office. 2. My office can supply any employer, individual, club or a- gency with simply written pam phlets on the several Social Securi ty programs. These are also free. AU von have to do is to write for them. 3. ' Also available at my office are posters on Old-Age and Survi vors Insurance, which are suitable for bulletin boards. These are es- pecir.lly recommended for emplov- m and agencies, Upon request, these will be sent w ithout cost. If each club o r agency in your town or county would devote a part of one m eeting to the discussion of OH-Age and Survivors Insurance, loss of bene6ts would be reduced in your county. Plan to do this during fall or winter. Let's co operate in serving your commit- nttv. IJwiIl be in Mocksville again in November at the Davie County Courthouse, Second Floor.

Policy; Russ Ask Big Four Parley Renewal “"— — — By Bill Schoentgen, W N U Staff W riter (EDITOR'S NOTE: TOheo opioions are expressed in these colomns, they are those of TOestern Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not necessarily ot this newspaper.) Bi-partisan unity in the U. S. was grievously wounded by the knife-edged Berlin crisis TOhen, on the one hand, President Trum an called a private conference TOitli Under Secretary of State Robert Lovett and Secretary of State George M aishall to mull over the situation . . . as * . . . and, on the other handy Gov. Thomas E . Dewey summoned his foreign affairs advisory John Foster Dulles, from P aris to find out for him self what was going on in Europe. DIPLOMACY; T r ip C a n celed To President Trum an, for engi neering the abortive deal to send Chief Justice Fred Vinson to Mos cow for personal talks with Krem lin leaders on the atom ic bomb, went the credit for producing the m ost heroically proportioned diplo m atic faux pas of the year. It happened very swiftly and very sim ply. Mr. Trum an deciding sud denly to try his own hand at straightening out the tangled for eign m ess, started m aking prepara tions to send Vinson to Russia. THEN the state departm ent heard about it. Robert Lovett, under-sec retary of state, profoundly shocked, notified George M arshall who cam e winging frantically across the At lantic from P aris to stop the Presi dent from comm itting w hat he com sidered a blunder of im mense gravity. The Vinson trip was called off, of course, and President Trum an backed hastily away from the whole business after issuing an abashed note of explanation. BUT THE m em ories lingered on. Mr. Trum an, in the m inds of those who knew or thought they knew about the international situation, had gone completely beyond the pale with this m om entary, head strong effort. His cam paign opponent, Gov. Thomas Dewey, at first wavered be tween righteous anger at what he obviously considered a deliberate flouting of the established bi-parti san foreign policy and elation that the Dem ocratic candidate had m ade such a grievous tactical error. And although the Dewey cam p was astute enough to realize that its cause would benefit m ore if it m agnanimously ignored the affair than if it leaped in for the slaughter, it nevertheless redounds to the New York governor’s credit that he did not take advantage of this interna tionally dangerous situation for his personal gain. S ig n ifica n c e Why was President Truman so widely and thoroughly castigated for m aking what he undoubtedly looked upon as a sincere, construc tive attem pt to clear up the Rus sians’ “m isunderstanding” of the problem of atom ic control? Because his intention of sending Chief Justice Vinson to Moscow rep resented a serious divergence from the basic characteristic of U. S. for eign policy—toughness with Russia. MR. TRUMAN’S proposal amount ed to a softening up of the labori ously built “get tough” attitude of the U. S. toward Moscow. It was tantam ount to saying in a pleading voice, “Let’s get together once m ore and try to talk this thing out.” Current history has proved that the kind of personal diplomacy the President sought to institute in the Vinson trip has been completely un availing in dealing with Russia since the w ar. Moreover, insofar as personal diplomacy always tends to bypass the United Nations, it usu ally has an ill effect on interna tional relations in general. IN THE final analysis, a personal visit to the Krem lin by Vinson probably would have upset the en tire, carefully fabricated structure of the policy upon which "the U. S. is depending to defeat Russia’s aim s in Europe. I— ANYTHING New— , I Whaf, No War? | Answers to the question “Does Russia want w ar?” are a drug on the m arket, in inform ed and unin form ed circles alike, but now and then someone comes up with a reply that is a little m ore im agi native than most. ONE OF this kind has been fur nished by an experienced profes sional diplomat—necessarily anony mous lest his identity become known to the Russians—who is at tending the U. N. m eetings in Paris. He said: “There will be no w ar soon. The reason is that Stalin, the head of the peace party, has just had Andrei Zhdanov, the head of the w ar party, m urdered.” (Zhdanov, who died several weeks ago, was one of the ranking m em bers of the politburo w here he was alm ost on a par with Molotov in power and influence. He had been talked of as a possible successor to Stalin. His dem ise w as m ourned with parades, pageantry and os tentation by Stalin, the boys in the Krem lin and the Russian people.) “HE (ZHDANOV) urged im m edi ate w ar. He argued that if Russia was defeated m ilitarily she would win politically, since the resulting horror and chaos would cause a new, irresistible wave of commu nism . “As long as Zhdanov was success ful, Stalin gave him his head. When he failed in Yugoslavia, Stalin told him to lay off. Zhdanov defied the Soviet generalissim o. So Stalin got his head. “This m eans that Stalin’s waiting tactics have prevailed. There will be no w ar soon.” BIG FOUR: C o m e A g a in While the U. S. state departm ent was exerting all its influence to pre vent a return to direct negotiations with Russia at this tim e, the Soviets were ham m ering aw ay at the op posite course of action by dem and ing that Big Four discussions of the Berlin issue be resum ed. THE TWO viewpoints, starkly emphasized by the reception Mr. Trum an’s futile mission-to-Moscow idea received in the U. S., revealed with extrem e clarity the broad gap now separating the E ast and West. Russia’s dem and wasn’t new. It was a repetition of Moscow’s now well-established tactics in East- West relations. W hat the Soviets wanted was sim ply that the Berlin question be removed from the agenda of the U. N. security council and that discussions among the Big Four be resum ed where they were severed last August in Moscow. Andrei Y1 Vishinslcy, deputy Soviet foreign m inister, handed a note to that effect to Juan A. Bra- m uglia of Argentina, acting presi dent of the security council, who separately inform ed the U. S., Brit ish and French delegations. IT WAS all wasted effort as far as the western powers were con cerned. Neither the U. S., Britain, nor France wanted to get within shouting distance of direct negotia tions with the Russians at this point. One western spokesm an com m ented simply, “The Russian reply is unhelpful.” The Soviets, again, were m aking no concession to peace. JU ST A FIRE H A Z A R D 'Sagging7 White House Due for Repairs This probably will cost you a million doUars. The White House — Am erica’s home for its presidents—will under go a series of reconstruction jobs next year that will bolster up the slightly sagging, 132-year-old execu tive mansion. And it is probable that the work m ay cost U. S. taxpayers as m uch as a million dollars. W. E. Reynolds, public buildings commissioner, said a structural survey is being conducted to de term ine what repairs are needed. Large scale im provem ents of the ram bling presidential residence will have to be undertaken, Reynolds pointed out, because the building as it now stands is such a fire haz ard “it would not pass the code of any single responsible city in Am erica.” C H U R C H IL L : G rim A c c e n ts At the British Conservative party’s annual convention in Llan dudno, Wales, Winston Churchill, never a m an to deal in flimsy op tim ism when the going w as tough, talked in grim accents about the world’s peril. HE WAS the old pre-war, no appeasem ent Churchill as he warned against letting any French breach appear in the line of western re sistance to Soviet drives. To the United States he said, in effect: Keep those atom ic bombs. Destruction of the U. S. atom ic ar senal now would be tantam ount to suicide. “If it were not for the stocks of atom ic bombs now in the trustee ship of the United States there would be no m eans of stopping the subjugation of western Europe by Communist m achinations backed by Russian arm ies and enforced by political parties. “BOLSHEVIK Russia is already heavily arm ed and her forces in Europe far exceed those of all the western countries put together. At the present tim e the only sure foun dation of peace—and the prevention of actual war—rests upon strength. He urged the West to “bring m at ters to a head and m ake a final set tlem ent” before Russia produces a usable bomb. 4 Such a settlem ent, according to the view of the w artim e British prim e m inister, could be arrived at only after the Russians had re leased their grip on satellite states, released the G erm an and Japanese prisoners they “now hold as slaves,” ceased to “ oppress, tor m ent and exploit” those parts of Austria and Germ any they hold and called a halt to disruptive opera tions elsewhere in the world. BUT CHURCHILL would not be a party to issuing any “false hopes of a friendly settlem ent with Soviet Russia.” Actually, he said, the Ber lin blockade m ay precipitate a war a t any tim e. A L IE N S : O n th e J o b The U .S.is hiring scores of aliens, m any of them in countries behind the iron curtain, to staff its 27-mil- lion-dollar international inform ation program . Leland J. Barrows, deputy direc tor of the state departm ent’s office of inform ation and education, told the senate appropriations comm it tee that the departm ent planned to add 278 aliens and 60 Am ericans to overseas duty by the end of the 1948 fiscal year. WHAT WILL they do? Barrow s said that the aliens—14 of whorJj will be added to the Am erican em bassy in Moscow—would be used prim arily as translators, clerks, m essengers and in other work as sociated with the U. S. foreign in formation program . Testimony before the com m ittee showed that the state departm ent gained the com m ittee’s reluctant approval of its foreign-hiring plan, despite the objections of Chairm an Styles Bridges (R., N.H.) who con tended that it would provide a fer tile field for Communist infiltration into governm ent functions. GEORGE V. ALLEN, assistant secretary of state, countered that there w ere certain jobs that had to be perform ed overseas that could best be done by aliens. He said aliens could be employed m uch cheaper for certain tasks where they can be w atched fairly easily, even though Am ericans m ay suspect their loyalty. This departure from the norm in the business of hiring federal em ployees was a new wrinkle in the government that very probably will be attracting considerable public at tention within the next few months, Reverse Russian I Constantine Boldyreff is a m an who wants to take the classic Communist concept of the necessity of revolution and apply it to Russia itself. Claim ing to represent a world-wide Russian anti-Communist organ ization dedicated to the over throw of the Stalin regim e, Boldyreff believes that the great m ass of Russia’s 167 million people are ready for revolt.

Down the ram p cam e a black - bearded, helm eted Spanish Conquistadore, re splendent in flow ing scarlet cape and shining broad sword. Next cam e a charm ing Chi nese girl in her ruffled dress, al luring as a lotus blossom. Then a less exotic crowd of beauties, sportsfolk', business men, headed by the m ayor of San Francisco. They had come to tell us about the resum ption this year of the Portola Festival at the Gold en Gate. (They visited eight other m ajor cities, too.) Don G aspar de Portola was the fam ous explorer who was sent to Am erica from Spain in 1769 to chase the Jesuits from California, the English from Canada, and the Russians from Alaska. He didn’t quite fill that order but he did locate and ex plore San Francisco Bay and discover a couple of other har bors. I paid m y respects to His Excel lency Don Gaspar, to the tall, slim, pretty and m odest water-nymph, Ann Curtis, Olympiad winner, and to m y old pal Jim m y Abbey, one tim e international photographer who m ade even Stalin “look pleas ant.” Now Jim m y is an ABC com m entator on the Pacific coast. But something better was to come. We sat down to luncheon and I felt right at home! There was Chef John Lischetti, of the Nugget Grill, founded way back in the gold rush days when nuggets were the medium of exchange. And better ■still there were sand-dabs, that strange flat creature sans-scales in FOBTOLA a n d e n t o u r a g e the ocean and sans-rival when pre pared "a la Pescad’ oro.” (Get the nugget?) But best of all was the crab salad nugget, which makes all other crabs seem crabbed by com parison. The food w as all native, flown from San Francisco for the occasion! Viva PortoIa! George C. Marshall As a Humanitarian The M arine band blares out a m arch from the platform overlook ing the huge Presidential room of the Statler where m ore than 500 guests are gathered for the cere m ony in which Variety Interna tional, that cheerful and charitable group of show folk, is to confer its annual H um anitarian award. In m arch the guests of honor, statesm en, diplomats, tycoons, ac tors, legal lights, and whatnot. They stand at their places a t the head tables which form two tiers banked with roses. A fanfare and George Catlett M arshall takes his place am id cheers that drown the m usic. The salute to the colors. We sit down to drown any modicum of sorrow that has survived the preceding recep tion. Speeches are short and good. M arshall, as secretary of state, could say little that was new, some thing that was grim , m uch that was encouraging and all of it “off the record” for we are already in the m idst of parlous international ne gotiations. Variety club president reads the citation: “ The career of the Hon. George Catlett M arshall has em braced leadership in peace as well as In w ar. “ Soldier by profession, he has ever displayed a conspicuous and consistent genius for the m ilitary. “ Shunning the opportunity to seek surcease from the cumula tive burdens of two world w ars, his devotion to principle and country has led him along the paths toward world am ity and peace since the end of hostili ties. "As author of the M arshall Plan, he translated into gener ous and inspiring fulfillment the shining hope for liberty, honor and dignity of free m en every where.

Review of ByrdtS Antarctic Expedition R ain pours, we drive through the slippery W ashington streets to the navy yard (now the naval gun fao- tory). The W ashington navy yard was planned by President Jolm Adams when French aggression m ade “freedom of the seas” a m enacing international issue. Work began on the site in 1800. Here the “W asp” and the “Hornet” were built to play their roles in the W ar of 1812, here the “ Constitution” and the “Presi dent” cam e for overhauling and re pairs. We stop a t the sentry box: “Guests of Adm iral Davis.” The m arine sentry salutes. We know our way to the officers’ club. Hand shakes and refreshm ents and into a bus that takes us to the event of the evening which the rain prevented us from witnessing aboard the hulking LST m oored to the dock in the Ana- costia river. So we m ust go indoors to see one of the m ost thrilling things I ever saw on the screen. A motion pic ture m ade from the actual photo graphic record of the 1946-47 ex ploration of the A ntarctic under Adm. Richard E . Byrd. I hope you saw or will see it—“Secret Land.” It had its prem ier on Navy Day, in 80 cities. The com m ercial movie m akers used the official film taken by navy, m arine corps, coast guard and arm y cam eram en on the scene. The picturing of disaster, of rescue, of tragedy, of suspense, of achievement, (in m ost cases the actual event as it happened) are something for which I have no comparison. One purpose of the 1946 expedi tion which was a follow-up of Byrd’s original 1929 undertaking when he established “Little A m erica” and ex plored the great A ntarctic ice cap, w as to train the navy in polar op erations. • Another aim was to m ake further discoveries and release the “ un known treasures” (which Byrd’s earlier explorations indicated were there) for the benefit of mankind. Even the “routine” operations, the ships am idst the ice-floes, the land ing on the ice-cap, the erection of the tent city and the operation of the planes, was an inspiring and thrilling sight, a trem endous trib ute to the Am erican skill in m e chanical achievement, in personal endurance, bravery, ingenuity. It will m ake you proud to be an Amer ican. Adm iral Byrd didn’t look much older than when we bid him God speed before he started on his first A ntarctic venture. That was close to m e for I was connected with the organization that syndicated the story for the press. But I was struck with the passage- of tim e, and the years of study and research that have intervened, when I looked at Dr. Paul Siple, polar authority and geographer. (He w as present in the flesh as well as on the screen.) P aul Siple was chosen to go on the 1929 expedition after win ning in a competition involving 600,000 Boy Scouts of Am erica. Then he was a tall, slender lad of 20. Now he’s stocky and graying. As a prom inent geog rapher he has done im portant research for the w ar depart m ent. The story of the A ntarctic is stud ded with great nam es — Scott, Amundsen, Shackelton, to mention only three—as well as with sacrifice and tragedy. This picture of the “Secret Land,” less secret now, shows the trem endous advances In technology m ade since the days of the early explorers. It took thousands of years to shape the penguins’ wings into the fins which m ake his survival in a polar land possible. In a few years in the laboratories and factories of America we have shaped the m eans which m ake survival and explora tion possible in the sam e environ m ent — exploration and discovery which some day m ay be of tremon. dous benefit to mankind.

S. air force chiefs flatly deny it, but the Berlin airlift is expected to break down in November. Chief difficulty will be weather. Other difficulties are the fact that planes are subject to terrific w ear and tear, with little tim e for over haul. Also, it’s significant that Brit ain’s RAF actually is carrying 45 per cent of all freight into Berlin. Anglo-American cooperation has been excellent, though the British aren’t getting credit for their part of the job. In November, simultaneous with m urky weather, the airlift will be called upon to carry m uch m ore coal. Several million people in Ber lin will be howling for it. The city already is on minimum rations. A deep-freeze unit in Berlin is worth nothing. Reason: electricity is turned oS m ost of the day. House wives can’t begin cooking until 6 p. m. Berlin’s complete blackont to save coal has m ade the city a paradise for burglars. They are now so brazen they have been breaking into homes while oc cupants were still awake. November bad w eather also will coincide w ith probable political un certainty in the U. S. If Dewey wins, as seem s certain, the American government will be in a state of flux between November and Janu ary. That is the tim e to w atch for real trouble with the Russians. • * * U. S. Plot Against Peron? H ere is the exclusive inside story of the alleged “ assassination plot” In Argentina: John S. Griffiths, the Am erican nam ed as “chief instigator of the conspiracy,” was cultural attache of the U. S. em bassy in Buenos Aires under form er Ambassador Spruille Braden. As such, he took an active p art in Braden’s cam paign to aid the Argentine Demo cratic Union, which opposed the presidential candidacy of Juan D. Peron in 1945-46. When Braden returned to Wash ington in Septem ber, 1945, Grif fiths took over direction of this Dem ocratic Union cam paign. His activities, however, were consist ently hindered by John Cabot, who rem ained as U. S. charge d’affaires, and who had never sympathized with Braden’s methods. After Braden departed, Cabot refused to cooperate with Griffiths in any way, even denying him access to cables received from Washington. Following Feron’s election and the appointment of George S. M essersmitit as am bassador to B. A., Griffiths resigned from the U. S. diplomatic service, but rem ained in the Argentine cap ita] as technical adviser to sev eral U. S. export firm s. Seven m onths ago, Griffiths w as sum m arily expelled from Argentina, on the charge that he had fomented a strike of bank employees in Buenos Aires. Two bank-strike lead ers, who had been fired from their jobs, subm itted testim ony that they had no connection or ac quaintance with Griffiths. However, these statem ents w ere rejected by the court and never published in Argentina. Griffiths returned to the U. S. last M arch, lined up three export representations from Uruguay, and departed for Montevideo in May. He has since been living there with his son, John Jr., 17, in a $25-a- m onth apartm ent, scantily fur nished, m aking just enough money to get along. On a strictly voluntary and un official basis, without pay, Griffiths has also served as confidential ad viser to Ellis 0 . Briggs, U. S. am bassador to Uruguay, on various Argentine developments. Briggs is really the top m an of the U. S. foreign service for the southern p art of South America. The “plot” announced In Buenos Aires nam ed Griffiths as principal conspirator be cause he was the ideal goat. Although identified in the Ar gentine public mind with Brad en, he is now ont of public life and can be accused without au tom atically causing an inter national incident. arm Community Nests for Poultry House Advised Installation Decreases Number of Dirty Eggs Taking cognizance of the prem ium prices paid for clean eggs on the m arket, poultrym en with large lay ing flocks are giving increased at tention to installation of commu nity nests. D irty eggs brought 15 cents less a dozen than clean eggs when sold through Ohio cooperative eggs auc tions in June, D. D. Moyer, spe cialist in poultry husbandry at Ohio State university, points out, adding that the owner of a large laying flock either has to take a cut in price, spend alm ost as m uch tim e cleaning eggs as in all other care of the laying flock or change the Fhoto shows community nest for poulffy house suggested by Ohio station to assure clean eggs. poultry house equipm ent to reduce the num ber of dirty eggs gathered. Installation of community nests in place of the sm all box type will decrease the num ber of dirty eggs by 50 per cent, M oyer claim s. They are easier to clean and can be kept free from parasites m ore easily than the ordinary little cubicles. Original construction cost also is considerably less than that of an equal am ount of nesting space of the old type inasm uch as less labor and m aterial are required. The community nest recom m end ed by the Ohio station is 8 feet long, 2 feet wide, 14 inches high in front and 30 inches high in back. The space is divided in the center so there are 2 4-foot com partm ents in the nest, providing facilities for 80 to 100 laying hens. The front half of the nest cover is hinged so it can be lifted for gathering eggs: The bottom of the nest can be hinged so it will swing down to dum p the nest litter. Hens enter the front of the nest in the center of each com partm ent. M aterials required for construc tion include: 9 pieces of 1-inch by 8-inch by 8-inch for lid, front bot tom ends and partition; 5 pieces of 1-inch by 10-inch by 8-inch for lid and back; I piece of 1-inch by 6- inch by 8-ineh for lower front board; 4 pieces of 1-inch by 4-inch by 8- inch for cleats, nest perch and en trance lids; I piece of 1-inch by 2- inch by 8-inch for cleats for the ends and partition; I piece of 1- inch by 4-inch by 10-inch for bot tom supports, with the piece bev eled at the ends if hinged; 3 pairs of 8-inch strap hinges, and 3 8-inch hooks and screw eyes if the bottom is hinged. W A N TED : O ne Home If a flock of Leghorn hens were to go househunting, they would look for just about the sam e comforts as their hum an prototypes. Sufficient space, good ventilation, uniform tem peratures, a sturdy foundation and floors are a few of the recom m endations for housing the birds, according to suggestions in a revised extension bulletin on “Poultry Housing” issued by the University of Minnesota. Like all construction, building a poultry house is an expensive prop osition. As it is difficult to correct m istakes after the building is up, flock owners are advised to consider their problem and needs carefully before starting construction.

DEVOTIONAL READING: Job 23:3-10. Drama in the Bible Lesson for November 7, 1948 Dr. Forem an T 1HOMAS CARLYLE, a crusty dyspeptic but a literapr artist of no sm all skill, was visiting a Christian friend. In the m orning a t fam ily prayers (so the story goes) his host put into his hands a copy of the Bible and asked him to read a chapter. Carlyle opened at thfe first chapter of Job; read it—read on to the next and the next and the -next — and refused to stop reading till he had finished all 42 chapters. Job is like that. It is a book you hate to put down. In all the Bible it is the outstanding exam ple of the dram a; a dram a of conflict in which the opposing forces are not people as m uch as ideas.* * * T he C h a ra c te rs lTpHE characters at first are three: God, Satan and a m an nam ed Job. Job is a good m an, in fact God calls him perfect. He is also pros perous, and thereby hangs the tale. For one fateful day God and Satan have a conversation about this m an. The Lord inquires if Satan has seen him, and how good he is. Oh yes, Satan says airily, he has seen him , but he does not think highly of his “ goodness.” He is too well paid for it. He has a large and happy fam ily, and has im m ense w ealth; why shouldn’t he be good? Take away his prosperity and he will curse you to your face, Satan sneers. So God lets Satan work his m alice on the m an. In a ter rible series of disasters, one rushing on another’s heels everything Job has owned van ishes. His children are killed by storm and fire, and Job is left a childless, penniless m an. But Job does not com plain; his faith in God still does not w aver. So when next Satan reports to God, the Almighty asks again: Did you see m y servant Job? He holds fast to his integrity. Ah, yes, sneers the unbelieving fiend. Yes, but he still has his health. H e can have another fam ily, another fortune. Make life itself so m iserable that he will long to die, and then you will see his goodness vanish, then he surely will curse you to your face. So God let Satan do his worst— Do all you can to him , God says, only leave him alive. And then Job is m ade horribly and painfully ill, he cannot sleep for the torture of boils covering him from head to foot. Three of his friends come to visit him. For seven days they sit in silence, and then begins a great debate with Job on one side and his friends on the other: Why m ust such things be? Why m ust good people suffer?• • • W as J o b R e a l? r \O N ’T ask: W as Job a real char- acter, or a m ade-up one like Ham let and M acbeth? It is very likely there w as once upon a tim e some m an by that nam e who suf fered in that way, and that he had friends, not too sym pathetic, who talked it over with him. As H am let and M acbeth were his torical characters, whom Shakes peare used with high a rt to express profound ideas, so the author of Job m ay well have used the trials of some m an he knew, or knew of, to express truths about a problem as profound and widespread as the hum an race. For Job m ost surely is real: his local nam e m ay be Smitii or Jones, and he m ay be living just around the corner from you. Indeed, sooner or later every m an’s nam e Is Job. Sooner or later, every thought ful person has to ,face (he tragedy of hum an suffering: Why m ust such things be?* • * S uffering I s T est T 1H ERE is, however, one solution which com es out in the course of the dram a. It is not a theoretical solution; that is, it does not alto gether answ er the question, WHY m ust m en suffer? I t does tell us WHAT we can do about it. Suffering is a test: A test of m an’s faith and real goodness. “When he hath tried m e, I shall come forth as gold,” Job says. (23:10.) The test of a ship is not the quiet w aters of the har bor but the roaring open sea; the test of a m an is not comfort but stress and pain. To have faith in God only when we are well-fed and softly cushioned is not faith a t its best. Faith and goodness prove their reality only when they hold together even when torn by the nails of a cross.

'T 'H E plane settled down on the bumpy field, and jolted to a halt . . . ■ the explanation for the un scheduled stopover was sim ply the cryptic statement, “W eather ahead!” The stewardess had no in formation about the length of the layover, so we walked across the field toward the town. Harvey Al len and I were bound for the coast on a brief business trip, seeking a new contract for one of our m ajor network productions. • We walked along the main—and only—street of the little town until we cam e to a sm all restaurant. It was dark and cool inside after the heat and glare of the midafternoon New Mexico sun. Settling in one of the tiny booths which lined the .wall, ive ordered some lunch. Except for the counter m an and a tired looking waitress, the place was empty. I noticed H arv staring intently at the m an behind the counter. I glanced up, but the fellow was a stranger to me. "Know him ?” I asked. H arv had a genius for knowing people every where . . . and rem em bering them. “He rem inds me of someone,” he answered. The girl cam e with our lunch, and we ate quietly for a few moments. Harvey continued, then, asking, “Did you ever know M ark Stev ens?” I sipped at my iced tea before replying. “Nope; he was before my time. But, of course, I’ve heard about him. Who hasn’t? Isn’t he the chap As we strolled back to the air port, I asked the question that had been in my mind ever since Harvey started that story. some Hollywood glamour gal took over the hurdles?” M ark nodded. “ Elsa Armstrong. The face and figure that launched a thousand hopes! Elsa the beau tiful. Elsa the magnificent.” He lifted his tea glass in toast, “Hail, Elsa! Destroyer of m en— of M ark Stevens in particular. Would you like to hear what really happened, Stu?” I lighted a cigar as I replied in the affirmative. Harvey settled back in the booth as he recounted the story of M ark Stevens. “Twenty years ago, this business of ours was just a puppy. And the m aster of that puppy was M ark Stevens. His was the brain that built the'advertising business. You really owe that $150 suit you’re wearing to him, Stu. M ark Stevens lifted us out of the m ire and into the moola. We all owe him plenty. “M ark built his organization by buying talent where he found it, and he had a genius for finding it. I rem em ber I was doing advance wotk for W illiams’ Brothers Carni val when I m et him. We got to gether in San Antonio one night, and the next day I was working for him . Just like that. “I started sm all—writing copy on I some accounts that weren’t too im - I portant. And all the tim e I was I watching the m aster, learning all I the little nuances and twists, get ting set for the day he saw fit to move me up a notch. It wasn’t long in coming either. The firm was m arching, and I was right in i step. j “After about a year, M ark opened a branch office in Chicago. I went ■there as copy chief. From that move, both the business and I mushroomed. Dallas, Seattle, Den ver, Los Angeles, San Francisco. Five years after that m eeting in San Antone, I was head of the San Francisco office. We had branched out all over the country, but this San Francisco outfit was second in im portance only to the home office in New York. "W hen radio and advertising had a happy m arriage, the M ark Stev ens Associates really hit the top. We opened a Hollywood office and began handling only the largest ac counts. I cam e down from San Francisco to head the new office, and M ark m ade alm ost monthly trips to the coast to give Ws per sonal attention to some of the real ly im portant clients. " It was on one of those trips that he m et Elsa Armstrong. Did you ever see a bouganvillea in bloom, Stu? Or a. hibiscus? That’s w hat she was like. A lovely, fragile beauty, and that’s an inadequate de scription. But she was sm art, too. Sm art . . . and tough when it cam e to getting places.” Harvey twirled the iced tea glass, clinking the ice cubes against its hard surface as he reminisced. Then he continued, “She wasn’t an actress; even in those days talent was an im portant item , but E lsa’s only talent con sisted in looking so beautiful it hurt. Strangely enough, she didn’t w ant to be a star. E lsa was hunting something entirely different. She wanted money and position. M ark had both, and Elsa took him like Grant took Richmond. The first thing I knew, I was back in New York and M ark had taken charge on the coast. O r rather, M ark was on the coast and Elsa had taken charge.' “I lost track of events then, un til one day the auditor cam e to m e with the rem ark that Mr. Stevens’ personal account was in terrible shape. Together we weiit over it. I decided that the auditor’s origi nal evaluation was strictly an un derstatem ent. The bills M ark had okayed seem ed to indicate that he alone was trying to support half of California’s furriers and jewelers. A few days later I began to hear complaints from different accounts that their affairs on the coast were not being handled properly. I de cided to fly out and see w hat went on. “M ark m et m e at the airport. He was . . . ah, well . . . definite ly not in the best of condition. He was unshaven and mussed. The m eeting was m ost em barrassing for m e, and I piled M ark into a cab ahd directed the driver to M ark’s home in Beverly Hills. He passed out on the way, and when we got there, I had one rugged tim e getting him upstairs and into bed, even with the sym pathetic and capable help of the cabbie. This done, I returned to Hollywood and the office. “There, I began to ask questions. The answers wereYi’t pretty. M ark hadn’t been in the place in weeks. But his bills had. His and E lsa’s, that is. Oh, she had a personal account, too. It figured on the books as his, which explained why we in the E ast didn’t know about it. I decided to see Elsa. “She wasn’t available a t home, so I started to m ake the rounds in pursuit, finally catching up with her at ‘The Players.’ She wasn’t alone. I sent word to her table that I would like to see her, and in a few m inutes she joined me. “I told you she was beautiful, Stu. When she sat down beside m e, I alm ost forgot what I had wanted to talk to her about. She was loaded with diamond doo-dads, and in each one I could see M ark’s money re flected. That snapped m e out of the trance and into the purpose of our tete-a-tete. “I told you she was tough, too. Brother! She was hard as nails. No, she’d not seen M ark in a month. Why? A fter all, a girl has to look out for her future. And M ark had been troublesome. Stuffy about her friends. I asked if the guy she was with belonged in that category. She m erely shrugged. I got the idea. I rather pointedly asked her how come, if she and M ark w ere through, her bills continued to come into the office. Another shrug; M aA owed her som ething for the way he’d acted, she felt. “My personal opinion w as that he’d acted pretty generously to w ard her. Too generous, from the shape both he and the firm were in. I said so. And I nearly choked when she agreed with m e. Yes, she was very candid about the whole thing. Very candid, indeed. I al m ost gagged. I gave her a brief idea of w hat I thought of her, adding that we w eren’t paying any more bills. W ithout further ceremony, I left. “When I got back to Beverly Hills, M ark w as awake, sober, and sick as a dog. I told him I’d seen the books . . . and Elsa. I told him a lot of other things, too. Boss or no boss, I got the whole works oft m y chest. But it w asn’t Majrk Stev ens I w as talking to. It w as the beaten, wasted shell of a m an I once knew and respected. He took it all without a word. When I fin ished, he just sat there, nodding his head foolishly. I .walked out in disgust. I never saw M ark Stevena again. “The rest of the story you’ve heard, Stu. How he walked out on everything and just disappeared. The company was taken over by the associates; but his genius w as gone, and a few months later we folded.” H arv snapped open his cigarette case, lighted the smoke casually, indicating that w as the end of the story. Finally, I broke the silence to ask, “And w hat becam e of E lsa?” “Elsa? Oh, she- dropped out of sight shortly afterw ards. A scan- dal washed her up in Hollywood.” A PPA REN TLY H arvey was no longer interested in the story or its principal actors. H eju stsatth era watching the counter m an, and I was mulling over the details of the story, thinking about how easy it was for a guy to go haywire. Just then, one of the airline employees looked in, saw us and announced that the flight would start in twen ty m inutes. We rose to leave. While I paid the w aitress, H arv walked over to the counterm an and said quietly, “ Good luck, friend.” As we strolled back to the air* port, I asked the question that had been in m y m ind ever since Harvey started that story. "H arv, that guy back in the restaurant . . . w as th at M ark Stev ens?” He smiled. "No, that wasn’t M ark. Didn’t even look like him.” “Then why,” I asked, ‘‘did you happen to recall the story of Stev ens? And why did you wish him luck?” “Because, if things haven’t changed, there’s w eather ahead for him ,” he replied softly. “You see, the w aitress in there w as EI53.” NANCY PEPPER D ID Y O U K N O W T H A T : A Sloppy Joe is the new nam e for a Dagwood Sandwich.

Arkansas Cars for Everybody Most people thought Henry Ford’s ideas about putting wheels under every American were just a lot of bunko. They just couldn’t see how anything like that could be done. Some of Ford’s early partners failed to grasp the idea, for they thought of automobiles as belonging to the rich. Ford’s idea was too “hare brained” for them. They couldn’t understand how anybody could pos sibly make a living selling cars to “poor” people. But Henry Ford had the grain of an idea and the courage to see it through. America was a nation that encouraged such things. With an original investment of $28,000, he put the nation literally on wheels. Mass production was brought into its own, and costs came down. Ford wanted to make only a small profit on each car, and this sold millions of them. Competitors had to offer good values, too. Jobs and Payrolls Tin Lizzie and her imitators called for roads. Dozens of new industries came into being, in the building of roads. Our highways would circle the globe 41 times. Liz zie and the others had a thirst for gasoline. America's petroleum in dustry grew enormously. Filling stations had to quench that thirst. All these things made jobs. Amer ica became as industrial power, with this Ford-mppired motive pow er all the while adding to her effi ciency and activity. This new mas? production created great industrial empires; mines for coal and iron, rubber plantations, timberlands and saw mills, hydro electric works, chemicals, glass, textiles. The resiilt was more and more jobs, bigger and bigger pay rolls, more and more goods and products that people wanted. Then, with our cars we became a touring nation. Al! our states became neigh bors. We came to know the face of America, the beautiful. PIowed-Back Earnings Out of that $28,000 and his idea. Ford developed a great industrial empire, with factories and assem bly plants and branch offices. Yet, aside from the factories and the equipment that he owned. Henry Ford probably never owned more that) 2 per cent of the wealth that he created. He was called a bil lionaire, but he counted his re sources' in buildings and machin ery, not in money. « Ford was free to plow back his earnings into an industrial empire that created jobs and produced wealth, mostly for other people. There were no personal income taxes to penalize individual effort. In fact, corporation taxes did not begin until Ford’s industry was five years old, and then the tax was only I per cent. It did not exceed 13 per cent any year until 1932. Today, taxes are a multi-million dollar item on many a company’s books. Any More Henry Fords? Demands from the tax collector have made impossible a contribu tion like Ford’s from any individ ual American in this generation. Present tax laws, and mushrooming growth of a revenue-taking govern ment, make it almost certain that there will not be another Henry Ford, or anyone like him. Are we thus penalizing the future of Amer ica? Who knows what need may arise for the genius of a Ford, in years to come? Our nation must never lose its inventive genius. This genius can best thrive in a climate of complete economic freedom. The spirit of industrial venture that Ford typi fied must be kept alive, for the good of America. Ford’s contribution brought untold blessings to all of us. We should not make it impos sible, through heavy taxation bur dens, for any future Henry Fords to develop in America Uncle Sam Says r M O R E F O R L E S S A T M artin Brothers Pinto Beans, .

By' introducing large quantities of ice- nuclei at and above the freez ing level in high cumulus clouds, IiEdl particles would be unable to grow to any considerable size, ac cording to Vincent J. Shaefer, con sultant to "Project Cirrus,” a weather research program being conducted by the army signal corps and office of naval research. There is evidence that the seri ous ice storms of last winter result ed from formation of rain in super cooled clouds, according to Shaefer. Under such conditions, it should have been possible to convert all this rain to snow. It is unlikely that the inconvenience and traffic trou ble produced by an increase in snowfall would be as great as that caused by icy streets, broken pow er, light and telephone wires, and the breakage of shade and fruit trees. Not all ice storms can be related to supercooled clouds, in Shaefer’s opinion, but last winter’s storms point out the importance of know ing more about such situations and having facilities to cope with them when the situation could stand im provement.

Thrifty Tommy P u e r t o R i c o H o m e - B u i l d i n g S p e e d e d U p i n B i g P r o j e c t A 50-million-dollar postwar housing boom is helping to ease the extreme housing shortage that has plagued Puerto Rico In recent years. First of the immediate projects is the huge Puerto Nuevo development in the suburbs of San Juan, where some B1OOO homes are being rushed to completion. Built by private con struction interests through the per sonal stimulation of Gov. Jesus T. Pinero, it is the largest such develop ment ever inspired and insured by the FHA. Bventually a second 5,000 homes will be built in the San Juan area, while the ultimate goal of the insular government is to see an additional 10,000 low cost homes built through out Puerto Rico. Bach community will have its own schools, shops, churches and theaters, while local bus systems will provide direct transpor tation services to minimize travel problems. Priced around $4,000, these new mass-produced homes can be bought by ex-service men on monthly install ments. Most are two-bedroom homes, with bath, kitchen and living room. Frozen Fruits and Vegetables Entire Village Sold Th* Etoglish village of Castle Combe, recently sold at auction, grew almost literally out of nearby stone quarries, says National Geo graphic society. Its old gabled stone houses with their mullioned win dows are even roofed with stone. From birth this Wiltshire village had belonged to the lord of the manor, the best known of whom was Sir John Fastolf in the ISth century, caricatured in Shakespeare’s Fal- staff. He had married the widow of Sir Stephen Scrope, whose family had owned the estate for SOO years. Ckstle Combe’s once flourishing tex tile mills are gone and its popula tion Is greatly reduced. It owed its industrial prosperity largely to pow er from tiie river flowing swiftly through the richly-wooded valley. This was once a thriving market town, where Wiltshire farmers sold their produce at the m arket cross in the village square. The upper story of the m arket house was used as a sort of guild hall. Etezen fruits and vegetables have several definite advantages over the fresh product Tliey are easier to buy, require little or no preparation for cookinj, keep indefinitely in the freezer compartment of the refriger ator, are quite free of waste, and have uniform quality throughout the year and from store to store. Many products are available in frozen form when the fresh is out of season. Many people consider the taste of most frozen iruits and vegetables superior to that of the so-called fresh product that has been hauled and mauled through the usual marketing chan nels. The vitamin content is high. Most people, however, apparently prefer the flavor and texture of first- quality fresh fruits and vegetables. Many frozen products are superior to canned fruits and vegetables in al most every" way except ease in pre paration and relative cost or price. There is reason to believe that the cost advantage that processors of canned foods have today will gradu ally diminish as the volume of frozen *°ods picks up and chain stores fea ture the products more. SOME FIX R Little Susie, age [our, said to her mother, “When I grow up, will I have a husband like daddy?” “Yes,” replied her mother. "And,” continued Susie, "if I don’t get married, will I be an old maid like Aunt Louise?” “Yes,” replied her mother again. “Well,” sighed Susie, “I surely am in a fix." The piano teacher was expected any minute, and Tommy was pre paring to take his lesson. “Did you wash your hands?” in quired his mother. “Yes.” “And your face?” “Yes, mother.” ‘And did you wash behind your ears?” “On her side, I did, mother.” Once Was Enough Mrs. Briggs: “Did you catch your husband flirting?” Mrs. Jiggs; “Yes, just once.” Mrs. Briggs: “What did you do to him?” Mrs. Jiggs: “Married him.” SLIGHT MISUNDERSTANDING The blacksmith’s assistant was taking his first lesson in repairing horseshoes. “Now, look,” aid the blacksmith. “I’ll get the shoe from the fire and place it on the anvil, like this. When I nod my head, you hit it with the hammer.” The assistant followed his instruc tions perfectly, but now he’s looking for a new job. Reserved Seats She was sitting on the aisle seat in a movie one night very interested in the picture, when suddenly a fat man and his wife interrupted by saying, “Excuse me,” and squeezed past her into the aisle, stepping on her toe as he passed. The distracted movie fan sat down again, forgetting it immediately, and became absorbed once more in the picture. After a few minutes, the same voice interrupted again “Excuse the, lady; but wasn’t it your foot I stepped on a few mo ments ago?" he asked. “Yes. it was,” she answered a little amazed, “but that’s all right.” “Thank you, m’am ,” said the man as he turned and signaled to a woman some distance behind him. "Come on, dear, this is our row.” ACCURATE REPORTING Z The state editor ol a Detroit papei was nursing along a particular!' obtuse correspondent who frequently forgot essential details in the storief he filed. One time he yarned the outstater very sharply to get names in his dispatches A couple of days later the corre spondent filed this: “Climax, Mich., July 10—Due to possibility of' there being rabief- spread in this town, our police forct has rounded up four dogs recently Their names are Towser, Rover Fido and Prince.” A MY was a.i‘?

He smells bad.” Johnny’s mothei' sent a note to the teacher saying: "Johnny ain’t no rose. Leam him, don’t smell him.” H e a r t D i s e a s e I n c i d e n c e - O n I n c r e a s e A m o n g W o m e n Smoking may have something to do with the higher incidence of coronary ,thrombosis among women in the past 30 years, according to Hygeia, health magazine of the American Medical association. Four groups of 1,000 patients each (smokers, non-smokers, coronary Oirombosis and non-thrombosis) were subjected .to statistical analysis. On the average, smokers were found to get coronary thrombosis 10 year, earlier than non-smokers. Althourl not a cause of the disease, smokin- is considered by many heart special ists to be a factor. In coronary thrombosis a cla' forms in one of the coronary arteries and a portion of the heart muscle i deprived of blood for a length of tinv sufficient to do damage.

C y p r u s , A p h r o d i t e ’s I s l e , S l a t e d f o r D e v e l o p m e n t The new plan to develop Cyprus as a British bastion of the eastern Medi terranean is a reminder that this is a land that many nations forgot, and then, at dramatic moments of history, remembered with a will. For more than 30 centuries the big island off the coast of Asia Minor has played a periodic but significant role in world events. Today as in the time of the pharoahs and the cru saders, geography has placed it in a key position along route to the Mid dle East. Its barren, ruddy moun tains rise from the blue Mediterran ean little more than 40 miles from Jthe Turkish shore. Syria and Palestine are, respectively, only 65 and 140 miles distant. The overwhelming majority of the Cypriotes are Greeks, descendants of ancient colonists. In the total popula tion of more than 450,000 there is a sizable Turkish minority, plus smaller groups of Armenians, Syrians, Egyp tians and Arabs. In World War II Cyprus was the first of Britain’s overseas possessions to send troops—the Cyprus Muleteer corps—to the European front British administration of the island Began in 1878, when England leased Cyprus from the Turkish empire to guard the new Suez canal route. On the outbreak of World War I, the is land was annexed. Brucellosis Perils Farm Workers Brucellosis is one of the most wide spread and costly diseases of cattle and swine in the United States, and is known to affect other species of animals as well. Thousands of cases occur in human beings each year as a result of contact with infected stock or from consuming unpasteurized milk. There is no evidence that the disease can be transmitted from per son to person but it is readily trans mitted from one animal to another. People who find it necessary to as sist animals at farrowing and calving time or who handle animals being slaughtered for meat purposes are ad vised to take the following steps to safeguard themselves against this serious disease. (I) Wear rubber gloves. (2) WaSh and disinfect hands and arms thoroughly after handling livestock. (3) Wear goggles or other protective devices over the eyes. Travel Dangerous In Tibet Properly called the roof of the world, Tibet is located in the very heart of Asia. With an area approxi mately that of Mexico, the whole of it is more than two miles above sea level. Travel on this windswept pla teau is discouraging. Expeditions must be fitted out with scores of pack animals to carry supplies sufficient to last for many months, with a siz able complement of natives to attend them. Mountain passes must be cross ed, sometimes at elevations of 15,000 feet, where the air is so rare that breathing becomes difficult. It is scorching hot by day and freezing cold by night. Bandits overrun the country, especially in the nomadic central and northern parts of the country, where nearly every strang er one meets is a potential bandit.

F IC T IO N By JOHN H. HOSE C o t n e v to keep water from flowing down hill. Everything went along fine un til Mr. Westour came over to com plain that Jack had dug up his gar den to bury a bone. AU our efforts to explain didn't appease Dad very much, and he was disgusted. Then Jack chased Roush’s cat, and the cat got caught in the porch railing and couldn’t get out until old m an Roush sawed the railing loose. Naturally, he wasn’t too pleased about that. Dad was adamant by that time, and insisted Jack would have to go. He had found some farm er who would take the dog. But Jack had a knack for taking things into his own hands, or I guess we ought to say, his own pawst He had a habit of following us to school, but we’d usually chase him home after a block or two. But one morning, when the snow was com ing down pretty heavily, Jack trotted along behind us. "Go back, Jack,” I shouted at him. “Go on home, old boy,” but the dog kept trotting along behind us. I tiirew stones at him and tried everything I could think of, but he Freddy and John wanted a dog but they weren't getting far with their plea. Then a stray mongrel wandered upon the scene one day and caused a great deal of excitement. f<XX/HY, how do you dot Won’t ' you come in?” asked Mother as she opened the front door. Both Freddie and I looked up to see who the caller might be. The shades were drawn in the liv ing room, so we couldn’t see who was standing on the porch. Mother had darkened the room to protect Freddy’s eyes because Freddy had the measles. He was covered with a blanket and curled up on the day bed which had been moved down from upstairs. I was spread out on the floor with the erector set. We waited to see the unexpected visitor, and imagine our surprise when in walked a big brown dog. The newcomer trotted across the room to inspect me, and I patted him on the head. Then he went over to the day bed and nuzzled his big head against Freddy, as much as to say: “Hi, there, Bud, I’ve come to help you get well!” “O, gee, Mom,” cried Freddy ex citedly, “a dog! Can we keep him, Mom? Where did he come from? What’s his name?” “Now, now, not so fast, son,” in terrupted Mother, as she settled Freddy under the blanket again. “He just came to the door when I went to get the mail, and I thought maybe he’d help you pass the time while you’re closed up here with the measles. Do you like him?” “Boy, I’ll say,” Freddy and I chanted in unison, “he’s swell!” The newcomer, who was busy in specting the premises, was just dog; part airedale, part hound. He was big, grayish-brown, and would have passed for a genuine airedale if he hadn’t had those big floppy, hound-dog ears. We had always wanted a dog but Dad said we didn’t have a place for a dog, and he wouldn’t have one if he had to keep it tied. “What'll we call him, Mom?” I asked eagerly. “Why don’t you and Freddy fig ure that out for yourself, son,” she 6aid as she went toward the kitchen to get dinner under way. All my life I had wanted people to call me Jack, because I lflted it for a nickname; but all I ever heard was just plain John, so I said; "Let’s call Itim Jack, Freddy.” “Yeah—Jack’s a good name all right. Here, Jack, come over here, old boy!” he called to the dog. And Jack wagged his tail, put his big front paws up on the couch, and licked Freddy on the nose. “Gosh, look, John,” said Freddy, “he knows his name already.” Wre had a wonderful time with Jack until Dad came home. “What’s going on here?” he called when he saw the dog stretched out on the living room floor. “Where did that mongrel come from?” “He came to help me get well, Dad,” piped Freddy from his haven on the day bed. Freddy always could work Dad for most anything, and when he fin ished telling Dad how the dog just practically came up and knocked on the door to help Freddy get well, Dad just grinned and said grudg ingly: * “Well,' I guess we can keep him for a while . . . until you get well anyhow." . But after Freddy got well, Jack stayed. Dad kicked about it a little, but he finally agreed- to let us have Jack if we kept him in the basement at night, and the dog didn’t get into any trouble. We both promised! But keeping Jack put of trouble was like trying That was the last we saw of Jack until about a month later. One of the neighbors said: “You know, I think I saw your dog this morning over at the Whit tier school. He was outside watch ing the children as they came out. I stopped the car and turned around, but by the tim e I went back to look for him, he was gone.” Mother replied that Jack was probably making the rounds of the schools looking for us. We kept searching and hoping, renewed by the news that Jack was still alive. But we didn’t have much tim e to hunt for him, as I was practicing every night for a school play. The night of the play’s performance we almost found Jack again. During the second act, there was a lot of commotion near the back of the auditorium, and several ushers ran up and down the aisles. It was pretty hard for us to enact the scene with all that commotion going on in the auditorium. On the way home, I asked Mom what the noise was, and she laughed. “I think it was your old friend,” she replied. “What do you mean, Mom?” I questioned. “Why a dog got in during the play and made a bee-line for the stage »?!”' ' i, * q SR I=* t v But keeping Jack out of trouble was like trying to keep water from flowing downhill. , __ kept coming right along. Nothing we could do would persuade him to go back. We knew we’d be late if we didn’t hurry, so we went on to school. As we entered the building, Freddy shouted to the dog: “You wait here till we come out, Jack!” I asked my teacher if I could bring Jack in, and she gave con sent if. I would promise to keep him quiet. I hurried out to find him, but Jack had disappeared. T T /'HEN we got home that night, ' ' Mother asked: “Where’s Jack? I haven’t seen him all day.” “He followed us to school this morning, Mamma,” I explained, “but when I came out to get him, he was gone.” “Well, I suppose that saves your father the trouble of getting rid of him,” she said. “Take off your coats and hang them up to dry. You’re all wet from the snow.” No one had much to say at the supper table that night. Even Dad was pretty quiet, and he went to the window several times to look out before we went to bed. Two dejected little boys prayed fervently for the safe-keeping of a lost dog that night. We rolled and tossed all night long, wondering where our pet might be. venm JHlS is a holy time—be Still, be Sill; I A child’s white prayer is winging its Sute way Up to the throne of God. Aaoss the sill The IaSt ted light fades from die wintet day, As a young mother who is very wise Is teaching a child to pray. Two tall white candles bum beside bet chair, Pierdng the dusk; they center in the eyes Of the kneeling child like twin flats shining there; | They glimmer through die twilight of the room, And make a halo of the mother’s hair. V A V C V tS ia ce J ic U cSuuveU Brightet than the candles or the sunset light Will be the fruit born of this precious hour The planted seed of faith will bear a white Inaedible flower, child’s heart may Beat wonder-fruit some future day when the ushers caught him. I looked around to see four-of them dragging him up the aisle, and it looked for all the world like Jack.” “But let’s go back and look for him,” I cried. “Your father and I did look for him, son, as soon as the play was over,” said Mother as the car turned in the driveway at home. “But we couldn’t find him anywhere. I guess we’re just not supposed to have him back anymore.” But two days later, just as sud denly as he had gone, Jack came home! Freddy was out shoveling snow off the sidewalk, and Jack cam e bounding up the street just like he’d never been away from home. Everyone welcomed him back, and even Dad didn’t say a word. But our pleasure in our dog didn’t last long. About a month later, Jack was lying on the front porch. Teddy Long, a tot about two who lived across the street from us, was playing on the sidewalk in front of his house. He toddled toward the curb, and was climbing down into the street when Jack leaped to the center of the street, barking furi ously at the youngster. Just then a car came around the corner, and struck Jack. Jack wasn’t dead, but nearly all his ribs were broken. Dad sat up with him through two long nights, feeding him and nurs ing him, but old Jack just couldn’t make it. Our only consolation was that Jack had undoubtedly sacrificed his life to save little Teddy; for the car could have struck the youngster just as easily. But this was a logic dif ficult for youngsters to understand. Freddy cried as though his heart would break, and I guess I was pretty tearful myself. After waiting so long to get our dog back, it was pretty tough, hav ing to lose him so soon. Things were so glum around the house that Mother decided we ought to have a party to cheer things up. But it was no use . . . nothing could take the place of our lost dog. Even when spring came and Dad took us on a fishing trip, something was missing. ” We were sitting on the porch one afternoon waiting for Dad to come home for supper. Freddy sighed and said: - “Poor old Jack.” Mother asked, “Boys, you’re sure ly not moaning about that dog yet, are you?” Just then Dad swung the car into the driveway. From alongside the house, we heard him honk the horn. Freddy ran to see what he wanted. Suddenly, he burst around the cor ner of the house, carrying a squirm ing puppy in his arm s and shouting: “Hey, Mom, look what Daddy brought home. He’s our new dog, Mom . . . and you know what his name is, Mom? His name is Jack!” Mom looked at Dad and smiled, and I thought I saw just the least sign of a tear in the corner of Dad’s eye, as the new puppy kissed Freddy on the nose.

CEASE FIRE: Holy Land Almost before anyone knew what was happening fierce fighting be tween Israeli and Egyptian forces had flared into bloom in the Negev, southern Palestine desert area. ISRAELI government spokesmen said the purpose of the Israeli at tack was to smash open the road to Jewish settlements in the Negev. Blocked transportation lines had prevented the Jews from running supply convoys to isolated settle ments in the district. But Dr. "Ralph Bunche, acting Palestine mediator for the U. N., in his report to the security coun cil, told a different story. Blame for the eruption of fighting in the Negev, he said, was not a “question of black and white.” "EACH side has soiled its hands in the grim business of trying to win a war through the instrumental ity of a forced truce,” was his ver sion of the conflict. By the time the battle had pro ceeded savagely for six days the harassed U. N. security council had had enough. It commanded both Arabs and Jews to issue immedi ate cease-fire orders. Earlier, Bunche had attempted to promote a three-day truce in the fighting, with each side holding the positions it then was occupying. The effort fell through, however, when Israel rejected the proposal. EVEN as the security council act ed the fighting was spreading from the Negev to other fronts in the Holy Land—along the Jerusalem- Tel Aviv highway, where Trans jordan forces were grouped, and northeast of Tel Aviv in areas held by other Arab forces. Results of the security council or der, at the outset, at least, were disappointing. Each side tried to shift the blame to the other; neither appeared willing to hold the battle. Palestine truce observers in formed the United Nations that the Israeli forces generally appeared to be the attackers in the new fighting that had developed outside the southern front in the Negev. CONTROL PLAN: For Atoms How to establish effective, work able control of atomic energy on an international scale is one of the rocks upon which the U.N. has al most foundered more than once, but the situation began to look a shade or two brighter when the United Nations suddenly steeled its resistance to almost impossible Rus sian demands on the issue. OVER the objections of the Soviet bloc, the U.N. political committee overwhelmingly endorsed the west ern plan for atomic control as a necessary basis for eventual elimi nation of atomic weapons. The conflict which has kept the atomic control problem deadlocked for so long is simply this: The U. S. and the West insist that an air-tight system of international control and inspection must be es tablished before the U. S. would feel safe in destroying its atomic weapons. The resolution which the political committee adopted is generally in line with the American policy. The plenary session of the general as sembly was expected to give it a routine final approval. Peculiarly enough, this was the first time since Bernard Baruch presented the American plan to the atomic energy commission in June, 1946, that all of the United Nations had a chance to vote on it. Previ ously atomic energy was discussed only in the security council and the atomic energy commission. SHORTLY prior to the U.N. ac tion the U. S. had demanded that the world group turn the deadlocked problem over to the five great pow ers and Canada for direct negotia tions. At that time Warren R. Austin, chief U. S. delegate, had told the 58-nation political committee that the U.N. could go no further in its efforts to control the atom until the Soviet union agreed to “participate in the world community on a cooperative basis.” HOW much good the U.N. vote of approval would do as long as the Russians continued to object was a question that remained hanging fire. It was conceded generally that, regardless of how much satisfaction the western nations might achieve by thus overruling and snubbing Moscow, the paramount problem— that of preserving the peace—prob ably had not been moved very far along the road to a solution. G e o r g e P o l k M Last May, George Polk, CBS correspondent, was taken out on Salonika bay in a boat where he was blindfolded, bound hand and foot and shot through the head. His m urderers: Communists. Their motive: Simply to produce a m urder, the blame for which might be pinned on the rightist Greek government in order to de fame it abroad. Gregory Stakto- potilos, Commanist Salonika news paperman, confessed he had wit nessed the slaying and implicated three other Greek Communists. DEFENSE: Big Budget World tension had slacked off slightly, but occording to President Truman’s estimate on next year’s defense budget the U. S. doesn’t in tend to relax its vigilance on that account. THE MILITARY budget for 1949 will be a neat 14.4 billion dollars— that is, if Mr. Truman's current re quest doesn’t get trimmed. It rep resents an outlay about two billion dollars higher than the figure at which defense spending is running now. (It doesn’t make any difference whether President Truman won or lost the election. He still was re quired to prepare budget estimates for the congress convening next January.) ^ The President said that his de fense officials had wanted a budget of around 23 billion dollars for the fiscal year starting July I, but that he had cut them back to the 14.4 billion figure. WITH RARE candor he admitted that it would take a Croesus to maintain spending as many billions as the officials wanted. His own aim, Mr. Truman said, was to get a m ilitary program the country could pay for. He added that he hoped eventu ally to reduce m ilitary expenditures to above five to seven billion dol lars—a remarkably optimistic state ment, coming as it did before the election when he was conceded vir tually no chance of being able to control any kind of governmental spending after the first of the year, ATOM PLANE: Seven Years? Look up into the sky in about sev en years and you might see an atomic-powered airplane scudding across the clouds. Scientists now think there is a good chance that nuclear-propelled aircraft will be in production by that time. AN OAK RIDGE scientist, David M. Poole, startled the atom-con scious public with the announce ment that the theory of an atom- driven airplane has been worked out to completion and is ready to be translated by engineers into actual plans for such a plane. The nuclear scientists have thought out a way to tap the power of a mobile atomic pile, Poole said. Now it’s up to engineers to make the idea work. Poole disclosed that the scien tists have made up their minds how to make the best use of the power whose source is the heat generat ed in an atomic pile. What kind of engine will be used to chain the tremendous power con centrated in the uranium fuel? The rocket-thrust motor was tried and abandoned, said Poole. Steam tur bine, turbo-jet and ram jet sill were crossed off. THE POWER unit will be a “nu clear rocket.” Just what a nuclear rocket might be is top-secret infor mation. AU anyone can even guess at at this point is that it probably involves a new principle of appli. cation of power. DEFENSE SURVEY Experts Eye U. S. Mobilization Plans Top military planners are rushing work to complete a spot-check of United States mobilization require ments by November 15. The check will disclose whether the United States over-all strategic defense plan makes sense and whether it can be applied readily. Mobilization experts intend to find out if the requirements, listed by the army, navy and air force can be reconciled with one another, and if this nation has the capacity to fill the military’s estimated wartime needs. AU this doesn’t mean that war is necessarily around the corner. Com prehensive analyses of the strategic blueprint are routine steps in U. S. mobilization planning. However,, the spot-check is in line with the faster m ilitary tempo these days. Famous Sons Arrested /"1HIEP Justice Fred M. Vinson is not going to Moscow and his name, therefore, will not become a by-word with the Russian people. Down in Virginia, however, his name is so well known that it caused a Virginia traffic cop to rub his eyes. Among the students at Washing ton and Lee university happen to be the grandson of a late famous Virginia senator, the great grand son of a famed -Civil war hero, and the son of a chief justice. AU three were riding together near Lexing ton,’ Va., when arrested for speed ing. The policemen proceeding to book them, asked their names. “Robert E. Lee IV," replied the first student. It happened that he was telling the truth. The traffic cop looked up quizzically, but wrote the name down, then asked for the next name. “Carter Glass III,” was the re. ply. The cop wrote the name dowii, then queried the third student. “What’s yours?” “Fred M. Vinson Jr.,” replied young Vinson. “Then my name’s Napoleon,” exclaimed the flustered cop, and let all three boys go. NOTE—Mrs. Vinson, wife of the chief justice, suggested to her son that after graduating at Washing ton and Lee he might want to take his law degree at Yale. A Yale de gree, she intimated, might give him a better springboard into the legal fraternity. Replied her son: “Little Old Center college (Kentucky) was good enough for dad, wasn’t it?” * • • Taxes Qo Up in Smoke Brass hats have kept it hushed up, .but the air force wasted thou sands of dollars taking worthless movies of the Bikini atomlc-bomb tests. For some unexplained rea son, the job was turned over to in experienced officers. Brig. Gen. Paul Cullen, then a colonel, had charge of the air force camera crews at Bikini. His m aster piece was a glorified, technicolor training film called “Able Baker Day," which he sent over to Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer to be edited. But even after the HoUywood experts added their touches, the picture was such a flop and so hostile to the army and navy that it couldn’t be shown. Instead the top brass ordered all the extra prints burned, and only two copies kept for the files. Since Cullen had gone ahead and ordered 48 prints, this made an expensive bonfire —paid for out of the taxpay ers’ pocket. Cost of the film alone that went up in smoke: S86,000. Since the atomic energy commis sion had caUed upon aU the armed services to cooperate in filming the Bikini explosions, the navy was working on a similar picture at the same time CuUen was making “Able Baker Day.” But CuUen was in such a hurry to finish the air force picture first and scoop the navy that he sent an air force tech nical adviser under the pretense of helping the navy, though with secret instructions to obstruct and delay the navy picture. The air force also made another $50,000 technicolor extravaganza of Bikinii caUed “Phantom Wings.” This smeUed so that it also was never shown again. It was produced by Maj- Jam es L. Gaylord whose total photographic background, np to that time, had been as a per sonnel officer. And here is how the air force has rewarded the two officers who wasted so much of the taxpayers’ money: CuUen was promoted from colonel to brigadier general, and Gaylord—in spite of his first flop— was placed in charge of filming the recent super-secret tests at Eniwetok for the atomic energy commission. He was supposed to have finished 24 films by October I; so far, has deUvered only five. U. S. Army’s Prisoners Unfortunately, several thousand U. S. prisoners stiU remain in U. S. prisons for desertion, crime, or violation of discipUne during the re cent war. Even more tragic, some prisoners have suffered “perma nent physical impairmant" in soli tary confinement. This was con fessed in a recent circular issued by the air force inspector general. Meant only for the eyes of the top brass, the circular warned grimly that regulations governing the treatm ent of these prisoners were “not being com plied with." “It is essential,” the air inspec tor general stressed, “that pris oners in solitary confinement on. bread and water be given one fuU meal every three days and that medical authorities examine them daily. Failure of medical authorities to perform the prescribed examina tion has, in the past, led to perma: nent physical impairment.” — W a s h i n g t o n D i 9 ^ S u U. S. Presidents Respect Members ot Fourth Estate By BAUKHAGE Neuis Analyst and Commentator. WASHINGTON.—In this post-election calm which has settled over the domestic political scene, many a vest, shirt, blouse, or slip in the Capital conceals a palpitating heart. What about my government job after the glad (?) New Year? The regular classified civU servants haven’t much to fear. They can’t be fired without cause, and no m atter how thorough a new admin istration’s housecleaning may be, most of the furniture lands right back where it was before, although here and there, you may at first faU tv recognize an old friend in a new sUpcover. Bankhage Long ago most 100 per cent N ew ^ Dealers in high places displayed the w isdom w h ic h they felt was the b e tte r p a rt of v a lo r and v a moosed. O thers assumed new col o rs. Som e who had not been too c a re fu l previous ly to keep the right hand from knowing what the left hand was do ing graduaUy be gan to grow am b id ex tro u s and soon were able to write the lesson on the blackboard without exposing the wedding-ring finger. There is however one class of permanent Washingtonians which goes on like the brook. But even individuals in this class may find the nature of their daily tasks dif fering sUghtly as administrations change. I refer, of course, to the Fourth Estate which now includes commentators (since radio news men as weU as newspapermen are eligible to the National Press club), thus estabUshing at least a mini mum standard of merit. NaturaBy we who cover the White House always wonder what manner of man we are going to have to handle. While a new incumbent is learning the art of getting his name favorably inserted into a Wash ington dispatch or broadcast we have a chance to learn the care and feeding of the source of news which feeds the news to us. Once Dewey had a bad reputa tion in this regard. But then, most candidates are suspect before they start, since it is taken for granted that they aU are subject to the dis ease of presidentitis which affects victims differently. Coolidge, for instance, was per haps least afflicted with this malady that attacks the strongest individ ual when he walks under the white- piUared portico of 1600 Pennsyl vania avenue to stay for at least four years. And Coolidge was about as rich in front page m aterial of his own making as the clam he’ sought to emulate. I remember a rem ark WiUiam Hard, now an editor of Reader’s Digest, once made to me: “Cal never seemed to suffer from presidentitis,” (Hard invented the word, I believe)—“he is the only occupant of the White House I know of who, when he lay down to take his daily siesta, didn’t think when he awoke that the world had gone to pieces.” No newsman, except toward the last, could complain about Franklin Roosevelt’s news con ferences. Regardless of what one might think of his views, his news was always printable. It will be hard to produce an other such. The heavy majority of those who traveled with Dewey on his cam paign trips had nothing but praise. But a few of those who had ex perienced his press conferences, and had enjoyed—or otherwise—his press relations in earUer days were cynical. “Wait,” they said, “until the honeymoon is_over.” I found it hard to get concrete predictions. I myself had seen a vast improvement in Dewey’s press relations over the years since his first campaign. And I see no rea son why a person can’t and doesn’t !earn. On the train, whenever he could (and that is the way most of the correspondents d escrib ed it — “could,” not “would” ), Dewey went into the press car attached to his train, chatted individually with the feUows, learned to connect names with new faces, answered questions, and at least appeared to be frank and free with his “off the record” rem arks concerning Re publican doubts and fears, real, im agined, or assumed. He sometimes took time for a game of chess “with the boys.” There was, however, much less informality in the atmos phere of his entourage than th^re was' in Truman’s. The Dewey affair moved so smooth ly that a creak or two would have been welcome. Like the farm er in the poem “so even ran hl„ course of life the neigh bors thought it odd.” There was one man who made press relations on the Dewey cam paign train- a joy—well, two men. One was Jim Hagerty, trained re porter himself, who is expected to be the pubUc relations secretary in the White House. The other was a man who probably won’t be in Washington at aU—Dewey’s veteran poUtical adviser, Edwin Jaeckle. There was no conflict between the two, a rare situation indeed. Jaeckle supplemented Hagerty. This would seem to contradict the sharp charges of W arren Moscow, author of “PoUtics in the Empire State” which came out this fall. Moscow, one of New York City’s top-rank poUtical reporters, who also covered Albany, claims that Dewey shut down news sources dur ing his governorship in an attempt to thwart any criticism. That he even tried to lay down a press con ference rule that a question was “off the record,” thus covering up the fact that an answer had been given not to be made pubUc or had been refused. Moscow asserts that Dewey wanted to be the oracle, the one and only, the sole source of what should be reported. If that was true earUer in Dewey’s career, the dapper New Yorker who has been widely-touted of late for being able to take advice and for being able to pick peo ple who know how to advise, has had some good advice. If he should revert to methods such as Moscow describes, two things would hap' pen; first, he would suffer; second, he would faU in his attempt, and the effects of the effort might be permanently disastrous. F re e P ress Is B est C heck Some presidents have tried to conduct government by dis turbing the “checks and bal ances.’’ It never works long and the freedom of the press is one of the checks—a prin ciple that is part and parcel of the American concept of government. * A notable example of how the very weight of the news, legitimate news, breaks through any waU, was the case of the financial conference caUed by President Hoover just be fore the end of his regime—1931, to be exact. Hoover had no intention whatever of deceiving the pubUc. He simply didn’t understand that you couldn’t have a gathering like that without making an adequate explanation of some kind. At any rate just a bare announcement was issued. The next day at the White House news conference, Hoover said Jje would not comment on the meeting (though the notice had appeared in the papers), and that he consid ered it the duty of the press not to print anything which was only par- tiaUy true, or else incomplete. Richard Oulihan of the New York Times, one of the most beloved and respected correspondents who ever covered Washington, and an outstanding leader, made a typ ically dignified, but very emphatic protest then and there. He said it was out of the question to ask the reporters not to get as complete a story as they could, it was pointed out by another weU-known reporter that the press would have to have the story, and the reporters would have to get it, regardless of the President’s wishes. The President refused at first, but the reporters insisted. FinaUy. he agreed to give out an official state ment after the conference. I have known other examples „ of short-lived gag rules. One ~ which Secretary of the Treas ury Morgenthau tried to estab lish on the treasury. He issued an order that none of the treas ury officials could talk with newsmen. He might as well have told reporters not to read the m arket quotations. It failed. Legitimate news continued to be reported as it always bad been. Franklin Roosevelt had, at one time, at least 80 per cent of the newspapers "against” him. He knew he couldn’t change their edi torial views by giving out news to their representatives. He also knew that if he tried to withhold news, the American people would be far less likely to support him. And be cause he understood the meaning of the freedom of the press, he wouldn’t have thought of trying. And he knew how to make it appear as favorable as possible. The most effective check in a democracy is not the first, second or third, but the fourth estate. An unenlightened public conceivably might elect a totaUy bad president and a totaUy bad congress which would establish a totaUy bad su preme court, but unless the press is gagged, the pubUc in a democracy cannot be democratically unen lightened.

Pullets lay in the fall and winter when egg prices are high. At the same time, old hens are going through their fall molt and consuming 25 to 30 pounds of feed while producing no eggs. In the spring, when old hens re sume laying, egg prices are down, thus necessitating a very heavy layer to pay the $1.50 feed bill which was amassed during the winter months. Old hens may be sold at once or they may be culled indi vidually as they go out of production. A weekly check of the old hen flock will enable the poultryman to cull out the loafers. If an old hen flock is maintained over the winter months, separate housing for pullets and old hens should be provided for best man agement and disease control. As another step in culling the poultry flock, old roosters also should be eliminated. They serve no useful purpose and eat lots.of feed. Some pullets also may have to be culled if the flock is to be main tained at the desired size for profit able operation throughout the win ter. In this case, only the best po tential layers should be retained. A good ready-to-lay pullet is one that is smoothly feathered, plump in body and carries richly pigmented shanks. Pullets so developed can be brought into 50 per cent egg produc tion without crowding by the time they are six months old. Pullets, however, never should be forced into high production during their first two months of laying. Innovation for Farmers Marking another step forward in the advancing standard of living for the American farm er, the first radio designed and built expressly for use on farm tractors now is on the m ar ket. The new radio, introduced by a Kansas City manufacturer, gives the farm er access during his work ing hours in the field to whatever he desires in the way of entertain ment, news reports, crop informa tion and weather forecasts. Equipped with a universal mount ing this set is readily installed on any make or model farm tractor. Cabinet and chassis are weather proof and shockproof. Eight tubes, including two rectifiers, a superhet erodyne circuit and telescope an. tenna comprise the power unit. Fertilizer Is V aluable For Succeeding Crops Farm ers who think fertilizer costs should be charged off in one year are overlooking carry-over assets that pay long-term dividends in big ger crop' yields, according to Middte West Soil Improvement committee. A good feed of fertilizer gives the soil a backlog of plant nutrients that benefit succeeding crops. Well- fertilized legume-grass crops in any good soil building program leave behind them important carry-over values. Legume-grass mixtures fed with plenty of phosphate and potash will add to the soil’s organic m at ter and build ^soil structure. They will improve tilth, drainage and ventilation. Because of these carry-over bene fits, agronomists recommend a min imum of three years for charging off the cost of fertilizer appUcations. Thorough Check of Silo W ill Prevent W astage Silos wfll help to assure good use of this year’s bumper crop of corn stalks. To prevent waste of the en siled crop, however, the silo must be in good condition. Thorough cleaning is the first step, entailing cleaning out the pit and scraping old silage oft walls. Walls should be examined for air leaks, using melted paraffin to AU small cracks in m ortar joints or be tween silo staves.

Some people still have this notion about prophets in the Bible, as if they had been gypsy for tune-tellers, tea-leaf readers or astrolo gers. They were nothing of the sort. It is not possible to open the Bible to the books of the prophets and read history-in-ad- vance, finding out when the next w ar is coming and when the end of the world is scheduled. If we could really use the proph ets of the Bible in this way, then any reader of these books could write history accurately in ad vance; but no one has done this yet.• * * Hired Man and Aristocrat T HE genuine prophets, whose writings make up so much of the Bible, are something far loftier than m ere fortune-tellers. They are authentic voices of God. Because of the way they spoke, the timeless truth of what they said, they are God’s spokesmen to our own times as well as to their own, and to all times. The Bible prophets were not "professionals.” They had no churches to support them. No regular meetings were arranged for them. Tou never would have read in the Jerusalem Journal, if there had been such a news paper, that the Rev. Dr. Isaiah would preach at the temple at U a. m. and there would be spe cial music. Few ever knew when or where a prophet might .speak. No one knew beforehand where a prophet might come from. Amos, for example, was a hired man from a sheep-ranch. Micah was a small town preacher. Isaiah was a highly cultured citizen of the capital, in tim ate with all the important peo ple. Ezekiel was a trained priest, loving ritual and pageantry. Jere m iah was a lonely, hunted man, living often in jails. Daniel was a member of a king’s council, wealthy and famous. They were all kinds of men, these prophets, but one and all, they were God’s voices, pleading, warning, teaching all who would hear.* * 4 Their Times and Ours IlTUMAN nature is always much 4 ^the same. One man alone, or one m an with another man, or a m an with a woman, or a man in a crowd—in the Eighth .century before Christ when Amos, preached, or now in the 20th century after Christ, the same sort of situation brings out the same temptations, the same sins. The prophets often sound quite modem, but that is only because the human race is so old-fashioned. The prophets looked about them and saw a world much like our own. They saw people spending more than they could afford; they saw wealthy wom en dressing In competition with one another while poorer wom en starved; they saw crowds of business men attending religious services on Sabbath mornings and spending the rest of the Sabbath, figuring out how to cheat their customers on Mon day. The prophets lived in evil times and they brought the judgment of God to such times—then, now and always.* * • Sins of Society TN AN American town there was a. L lynching one Saturday night. The next morning there were four ser mons in the four little churches of the town; but not one of the preach ers had a word to say about that lynching or any lynching or about the causes . that produce such crimes. The prophets never would have missed an opportunity like that. They were not afraid to speak out, even when they had the whole com munity against them.• * * What Does God Require? JT IS easier to say “Don’t” than "D o." It is easier to criticize than to construct. But the prophets did not stop with warnings. They have given us a pattern for living, which Micah summed up in those matchless, inspired words: “What doth the Lord require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?” Everything that is good, in public life or In private, is in cluded in those 22 words.

NOVEMBER 10, 5948 LOO KING AH EAD O E O R G E S. B E N S O N Putiienl-HttiiHl Celleie Searef. M itnstt An American Dictatorship Just the idea of dictatorship in America shocks us. Yet a learned European professor from the Uni versity of Zurich, Dr. Emil Brun ner, told a group of scholars in Amsterdam that “all the Western nations” are headed directly toward totalitarianism. This may have come as a surprise to American citizens, who are part of this great Republic and cherish its democratic institutions. That was what the professor said. He was thinking of our democratic ways, yet that is what he said. The professor knows that Western nations have their legal constitu tions. He knows of their long stand ing convictions about freedoms. Nevertheless, he said these coun tries “are on the way toward total itarianism, not because they like dictatorship, but because wherever a social evil is to be cured they appeal to the state for help.” Power Over the People If the people keep calling on the state for help, the interference of government in the daily lives of peo ple will certainly increase. This way of solving problems through the state is dangerous, as Dr. Brunner warned. Thinking perhaps of the dangers today confronting Great Britain, he spoke out: “Once the economy is nationalized, a totalitar ian state is there whether one wants it or not.” Our British friends may not be able to admit that their nation has gone totalitarian, but many ear marks of the dictator state are there. The government holds power over the peopie that cruel kings strove for and could not gain. Yet these powers were handed over to the government in legal, parliamen tary fashion. The government can tell individuals in England where they must work and what they may do for a living. Despots of the Dark Ages held powers no more despotic. An Honest Lawmaker The Congressman for our district, Representative Mills, came home recently. Not up for election this year, our Congressman did not have to buckle down" to a barrage of ques tions and give political answers. In stead of promises he gave our peo ple some straight-in-the-face, fac tual talks. He told us that if we want lower taxes, we'll just have to stop asking for more and more govern ment. You can’t keep on begging the gov ernment for this and that, and not expect to pay the bills, our Congress man told us. If we can’t learn any better than to go to the federal gov ernment with every little problem that confronts us, then we will see government grow until we are en gulfed by it. We must get away from the common idea that if we get something from Washington, we therefore got it “for nothing.” It Depends on Us Those beliefs among us are exact ly the kind of thinking that could spawn a dictatorship. World history is full of examples of both big and little Caesars who handed out prom ises for power. The professor is right. The state way of doing things —the planned economy method—is dangerous. It encourages helpless ness. It dulls initiative. It thrives on waste. It taxes the people and cares nothing for debt. It could ruin our nation. The only way to avoid this ruin is to get oim minds clear about it. We can determine that the Amer ican way of work, thrift, self-con trol, and enterprise will carry us through. When each individual is free to work out daily problems that confront us, we have millions of people doing things right. The other way, we, would have only a handful of men directing a dicta torship, in a planned economy that would make us slaves of the State ind take our freedoms, one by one.

S I We Are Now Prepared To B u y a u d G i n Y o u r COTTON In Our Modem New Cotton Gin I F o s t e r ’ s C o t t o n G i n Weather Science to Tame Destructive Ice and Hall There is a very good possibility that destructive hailstorms may be eliminated in the future, and seri ous ice storms may be “tamed” in winter, according to snow-and-rain- making scientists, National Patent council reports. By introducing large quantities of ice nuclei at and above the freez ing level in high cumulus clouds, hail particles would be unable to grow to any considerable size, ac cording to Vincent J. Shaefer, con sultant . to "Project Cirrus,” _ a weather research program being conducted by the army signal corps and office of naval research. There is evidence that the seri ous ice storms of last winter result ed from formation of rain in super cooled clouds, according to Shaefer. Under such conditions, it should have been possible to convert all this rain to snow. It is unlikely that the Inconvenience and traffic trou ble produced by an increase in snowfall would be as great as that caused by icy streets, broken pow er, light and telephone wires, and the breakage of shade and fruit trees. Not all ice storms can be related to supercooled clouds, in Shaefer’s opinion, but last winter’s storms point out the importance of know ing more about such situations and having facilities to cope with them when the situation could stand im provement.

"Chief,” remonstrated the tourist, "why don’t you get a job in a fac tory?” "Why?” grunted the chief. "Well, you could earn a lot of money. Maybe 30 or 40 dollars a week.” "Why?” insisted the chief. "Oh, if you worked hard and saved your money, you’d soon have a bank account. Wouldn’t you like that?” "Why?” again asked the chief. “For heaven’s sake!” shouted the exasperated tourist. “With a big bank account you could retire, and then you wouldn’t have to work any more . . . ” "Not working now,” pointed out the chief. A MYSTERY Upon being offered some roast chicken, Sam accepted a drumstick. "Now, Sam, would you like some of this nice stuffing?” asked his mother. "No, thank you,” he replied. And after a thoughtful moment added. “And I don’t see why the chickens eat it either.” WORLD WISE A old farmer was talking to his hired hand. “I don’t hold with all this new fangled stuff they’re teaching the kids in school nowadays,” he said. “My kid came home the other day and said they taught him that the world was round.” “But the world is round,” said the hired man.” “See there!” said.the old far mer. “They’ve even got you be lieving it.” CIGAR SHORTAGE First tram p: “This is the first cigar Fve had in three weeks.” Second tram p: '‘What’s been the trouble?” First: "Had lumbago and couldn’t bend over.” M o d e s t W ish A man, frantic to locate a place to live, asked a naturalist if he knew where he could find a house. The naturalist replied: “House? Boy, you’re getting soft. Why don’t you live out in the open air, let old Mother Nature cover you with a blanket of stars, and have the blue firmament above as a roof?” “Frankly,” said the man, “I had in mind something a bit smaller.” They Serve A Purpose “Tell me,” said an old gentleman, drawing little Johnny out with good- natured teasing, “what are little boys good for, anyhow?"

Ground breaking ceremon ies were held on April 14, 1948, Pan- American day. Serving as a beacon to ships and planes, the five-million-dollar light house memorial has the unanimous approval of the general assembly of the United Nations and the Pan American Union. It WiU contain the ashes of Christopher Columbus as weU as a museum for inter-American exhibits and a library. The cross-shaped lighthouse was designed by J. L. Gleaves of Scotland to symbolize the international broth erhood which has existed among the peoples of the western hemisphere. It will take from two to three years to build and when completed will be the most massive memorial to a sin gle man since King Cheops built the pyramid at Gizah.- On the face of the building, 120 feet high, 28 sculptors working si multaneously, will carve the history of each of the Latin American re publics. It WiU be the greatest mass sculptoring job In the western hemis phere since the days of the Aztecs. G ray F o x A T ree-C lim ber W ben D ogs A re on T ra il Although members of the dog fam ily are seldom thought of .as tree climbers, the gray fox frequently re sorts to trees when pursued. True, he cannot climb with the agility of a squirrel, but he can climb or jump upon the lower branches and bound from one to the other. Like most mammals, he prefers to come out at night, says N. R. Barger, of the Wis consin conservation department. The gray fox’s den is likely to be found in bushy country, either in the ground itself or in a hollow log or other cavity. It does not like to make its den in open fields such as are used by the rpd fox. When the gray fox goes for food he gets into more dificulty with man than his relative the red fox. He likes cottontails and birds, so poultry are included in his diet list. When compared with the red fox, he looks gray above and reddish- brown below. His legs are shorter and more blunt. Chief enemy of the gray fox is man, although bobcats and owls may cap ture them when they are small. Al though the pelt does not have high value, it is used for coat collars and trimmings. Goethe, Lifelong Student Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) was a native of Frank fort, Germany, and later took up his residence at Weimar. He was educat ed at Leipzig and became a lifelong student, his curiculum including law, the natural sciences, philosophy and art. His marvelous literary produc tivity ranged from romance to reli gion. During the years when he ex ercised his literary talent he was en gaged with political offices, including that of minister of state. Goethe es- ablished a strong friendship with Schiller, the German poet. Chief among his works is Faust, on which from the age of 20 he spent much of his life. Faust’s career is emblematic of the striving for an ideal against temptations. Naming of Fort Bragg Fort Bragg, 10 miles west of Fay etteville, N. C., home of the 82nd air borne division, was named in honor of a brave, resourceful fighting man —Gen. Braxton Bragg—a soldier who saw action in the Seminole and Mex ican wars with the U. S. army and in the Civil war with the Confeder ate army. He won distinction in each of them. Fort Bragg, one of the larg est military reservations in the U. S., covers almost 128,000 acres, and con tains approximately 200 square miles of varied terrain. Here the soldiers of the 82nd learn the highly spectacu lar mechanics of airborne operations. Gause of Backache Pressure on the ligaments of the spine’s shock absorbers, the inter- vertebral discs, is more likely than pressure on nerves to be the cause of backache. Injuries to the interverte- bral discs are responsible for a great number of low-back pains and at least contribute to sciatica. The sup porting action of these discs, which the doctors describe as of major im portance In spinal mechanics, often has been erroneously considered simpler than it actually is. The wash er-like discs form the joint between the bones of the spine, the vertebrae, and perform the function of prevent ing bone from grinding on bone. A A F F L tN E S I r 'A v w3 Jnst for a Laugh A ICING'S jester punned inces santly until the king, in desper ation, condemned him to be hanged. However, when the executioners had taken the jester to the gallows, the king, thinking that after all a good jester was not easy to find, relented, and sent a messenger post haste with a royal pardon. . Arriving at the gallows just in time, where the jester stood with the rope already about his neck, the messenger read the king’s decree, to the effect that the jester would be pardoned if he would promise never to make another pun. The jester could not resist the temptation of the opportunity, however, for he cackled out: “No noose is good news.” And they hanged him. FIRE ALARM E L ‘M Arriving at a strange hotel, a fussy woman thought she’d better know where the fire escape was, so she started exploring. During her tour she opened a door and found herself in a bathroom occupied by an eld erly gentleman. “Oh, I’m sorry,” she exclaimed. “I was looking for the fire escape.” Continuing her search, she pres ently heard the pad of bare feet be hind her and a shout made her turn. It was the elderly gentleman, clad in a bath towel. “Wait a minute!” he gasped. “Where’s the fire?” WAR MANEUVERS “I understand your daughter is going to be m arried,” a man said to his neighbor. “She seems rather young. Do you think she is ready for the battle of life?” "She really ought to be,” the father said. “She’s been in five engagements already,” REALLY COLD Two mountaineers were complain ing about the cold. “Nearest I ever came to freezing,” said one, “was when I was holding the lantern for my wife while she cut the kindling.” Ca! Stems The children were having a great deal of fun playing with the young kittens. After a while little Mary came running into the living room in tears. “Mommy, Jimmy is hurting the kittens. He is holding them up by their stems.” New Look At last Mike hit it rich. He bet on three horses and they all came in. Bubbling with good news, he rushed home, flung a wad of greenbacks on the table and shouted: “There, Baby—now at last you can go out and buy some good-leoking clothes.” "I’U do nothing of the kind,” Mrs. Mike snapped. 'T m going to buy the sam e kind other women are wearing.” Seen Along Main Street By The Street Rambler.

HOSE He had been away a long time but Armand's appeared much the same to him—even to the apartment across the street which he nearly by-passed in his bitterness. A RMAND’S looked much the ■T* same, even after seven years. The long lunch counter on the right extended the full length of the room, the polished fittings of the soda fountain gleaming in dual rows as they reflected themselves in the m irror behind the counter. To the left were the red leather booths. Half way back was a wide doorway leading to the dining room and dance floor beyond. I looked for old Peter, the clean-up man who Was the favorite of the high school kids who frequented the place. But he was not in sight. A new soda jerk polished the spotless surface before me, and the girl who took my order was also a newcomer. “A chocolate malted,” I said, and strolled to the jukebox in the far corner w hile th e little mixer hummed. I punched the numbers at random and fed the music box a couple of coins. Back on m y stool I saw that Ar- mand was sitting at the little alcove table overlooking the entire room, It started to rain. Belting down hard, litlle torrential stream s poured from the awnings, just as they had the first night we came to Armand’s. Her guardian angel, she'd called him. He had to meet and approve all her new friends. For years they had been neighbors, and Armand was a kind of paternal friend since her own father had died. As the old boy gave me the once over that night, she had laughed gaily. And silly or not, I felt pretty swell when he came over and treat ed us. She told me he gave his seal of approval by treating if he liked you. I was in. ' I ordered another malted for the sake of the memory, and looked up toward the little alcove. Armand had detached himself from his chair, and with no small amount of effort, was waddling along behind the counter. I waited, thinking of that other night when she had been at my side. The scent of her had been everywhere, her soft hair cas cading gently to her shoulders, the a w S 4 ' " 'XT I The scent of her had been everywhere, her soft hair cascading gently to her shoulders, the big brown eyes, long lashes, her soft wldte skin, and her pouting lips, vividly hut carefully painted to en tice the likes of me. He always sat in this spot, or perched on a stool in the cashier's cage. He glanced up and smiled like a fat little buddha come to life. He didn’t speak. I thought: ‘‘He doesn’t remember me. But then I am the- only customer in the place, he must have smiled at me. . . He remembers me all right,” I thought, “but doubtless doesn’t relish the memory.” I turned away. I couldn’t help but stare out the, window. Her apart ment was just across the street, third floor front. The windows over looking the street were dark. Being so near her set the butterflies hop ping in the pit of my stomach. I returned to the fountain and sipped at the malted. Seven years. How do people m ark the passage of seven years? To some it’s the span of a witch’s curse on a broken mirror. The return of the locust. The end of the itch. Pil grimages to Mecca. Sabbatical leaves for teachers. Each has Ius own way of reckoning. Seven years . . or a century. I glanced at Armand. To him it probably m eant another chin . . . more money. To her . . . I had no idea. big brown eyes; long lashes, her soft white skin, and her pouting lips, vividly but carefully painted to en tice the likes of me. The old guar dian and I looked at each other for a long minute. I wondered if he was remembering. Finally he smiled. So . . . he hadn’t forgotten. “It’s been a long time, Mt. Ander son,” he said in his ingratiating rumble. I STUCK out my hand, replying, “It’s been a very long time, Ar mand. How’ve you been?” “Not bad, not bad,” he shrugged. “A bit older, a trifle wiser. I can’t complain.” His eyes wandered across the street as he left unsaid the answer to my unasked question. “Are you back in town to stay?” he added, as a kind of afterthought. “That all depends,” I said, and wondered about that “wiser” busi ness. She certainly must have told him all about me. But he sounded friendly enough. I watched as he glanced again toward the front. I knew he was looking up at her apartm ent windows. I tried to sound casual as I asked, “Anita been in lately?” He stroked his handful of chins, and seemed to be making a decision before he an- •“T n H E many griefs of yeftetday I Have left me, one by one, JL Until no shadow o f them falls Actoss today's bright sun.

He stood watching me for a long minute, then he said: “She was in last night,” he said. “As a m atter of fact, we were talk ing about you, Mr. Anderson.” He picked up my empty glass, and forced it down over the automatic washer. I nodded, too busy thinking about what he said to even reply properly. So they had been talking about me? What did that mean? I was certaiD neither of them knew the real story behind my sudden departure. I’d had to go in a hurry. No one knew except John and Peggy. As far as the others were concerned, I was just a guy who had taken his firm for a few hundred dollars. They probably figured I’d been lucky to escape prison. That I had been covering for John was nobody's business. I didn’t ap prove what Johnny had done, but Peggy was my sister. With three kids and another on the way, Johnny knew his salary wouldn’t be able to stand the stretch. Instead of laying his problems before his boss and asking for a raise, he lost his head. He did the foolish thing. Others had done it before. I got him out of the mess, but no one knew this but the three of us. So I figured any conversation about me wouldn’t be compliment ary . . . unless they’d discovered that I wasn’t just a cheap thief. I wondered. She lived at the same place. Armand was friendly toward me. What did it all add up to? But did they know these things about Peggy and John? Did they know that the money had been re paid? Or were they like the others —did they suspect that I was just a bum? I guess I might just as well forget about the whole thing and go some place to start all over again. I took one last look toward her apartment, picked up my coat, and asked the girl for my check. Ar mand had stepped to one of the booths to greet some folks who had come in just as the rain started. I waited for him at the cashier’s booth at the end of the counter. I was disgusted and showed it, I guess. Finally Armand shuflfled over to the cash register and took the check the girl had given me. “That’s aU right, Mr. Anderson," he said, “This is my treat. Good luck.” I m uttered m y thanks and went outside to stand under the awning, wondering where to go in the gloomy downpour. Then it sud denly dawned on m e . . . Armand had treated! His seal of approval! I was still Mr. Big across the street —that’s what he was trying to tell me! Armand had let me know that in his quaint, unobtrusive way. I looked again at the apartm ent win dows. There was a light there now. She was home! I didn’t even look up and down the street, but dashed out into the rain. This was it! The thing Pd waited a million minutes for. This made up for every lonely night, every rem ark handed out by those who didn’t know. I was going home. I could say all the things that had been bottled up inside me for so long. I could tell her now how much I loved her, how I had longed for her. I glanced back as I entered the building. Armand was peering out the door, his round face pressed against- the glass, a wide smile spread across his countenance as I waved m errily before climbing the stairs to the third floor front.

We mean that beruffled dresden doll who pauses to swish up her skirts as she steps dainti ly up and down the curb? Could it be the same teen-ager we used to deplore in je a n s a n d shirts?

Conceal or Reveal?—A survey in dicates that most of you approve of the petticoat that hangs a bit be neath your skirt. And just to make sure that it doesn’t blush unseen, you’re catching up one side of your skirt with a bow or clip, AU this despite protests from the same Joes who so vigorously and futilely op posed your New Look.

Petticoat Pretties—Down in Louis ville, Ky., teens are living up to Southern BeU traditions by pinning artificial flowers to their petticoat ruffles to m atch the boutonnieres on their suits or blouses.

And, aU over the country you’re lift ing a corner of your skirt with that new Petticoat Peeper pin with a m etal cUp at the end of its chain shaped like a Uttle hand.

DIFFERENT COAL STRIKE . . . French troops in .battle array march into the Villiers mine in the St. Etienne area of France as the govern m ent seized strike-bound coal mines throughout northern France. Vicious rioting and assorted civil battles preceded the government’s action in taking over the mines. REJECTION: U. N. Proposal Russia wouldn’t play ball with the United Nations on the settle ment of the Berlin dispute. A six-power “face-saving” reso lution for solving the crisis was presented to the U. N. security council and promptly batted down by the Soviets—to the surprise of no one concerned. THE RESOLUTION . proposed that Russia lift the Berlin block ade immediately; that the four military governors of Germany begin immediate negotiations to implement the Moscow agreement of August 30 for a Soviet-backed, four-power controlled mark in Ber lin by November 20, and that a foreign ministers’ council be con vened within 10 days thereafter to take up other serious differences over Germany. Russia's stated objection to the resolution was that it provided for the lifting of the blockade before the currency control went into effect. Previously, the western powers had turned down Alidrei Vishin- sky’s counter proposal for simul taneous lifting of the blockade and putting into effect the currency agreement. IN REALITY, this point of dif ference upon which the latest deadlock centered was a minor one, but it served to illustrate the vast gap that must be closed be fore a meeting of minds between the East and West can be achieved. MOREOVER, it has become in creasingly clear that Moscow does hot even have any desire to lift the blockade. It is, for them, too good a weapon with which to at tempt to bludgeon the U. S. and the West into granting them fur ther concessions in Germany, in cluding a voice in the operation of the all-valuable Ruhr industrial area. STALIN TALKS: tHorrorsi In what is probably the most amazing outburst he has made since the war, Soviet Prem ier Josef Stalin told the world that the U. S., Great Britain and France are seeking a new war through a “policy of aggression.” The accusation, despite the high level of its source, amounted to nothing more than a repetition of the already stereotyped Russian practice of attempting to turn an opponent’s reasoning back on him. HOWEVER, he added, the “pub lic forces favoring peace” are too strong to permit “the instigators of a new war” to plunge the world again into the “horrors” of con flict. Stalin named Winston Churchill as “the main instigator of a new war” and predicted that Church ill’s “pupils of aggression” would be rejected by the people just as Churchill has been. Although he did not label Presi dent Truman or any other leader as a “pupil in aggression,” the implication was too clear to be mistaken, particularly since the Moscow radio had broadcast a pre diction that Mr. Truman would be defeated on November 2. STALIN accused the U. S. and Britain of twice rejecting settle ments of the Berlin crisis with Russia and said that debate on the Berlin question in the U. N. security council “was a display of- aggression on the part of Anglo- American and French ruling Cir cles.” The British and Americans, the Soviet premier said, declared “null and void” an agreement reached in the ICremlin confer ences August 30 that would have Old-Fashioned, but... Toothaches are old-fashioned. That is the opinion of Dr. John C. Brauer of the University of Wash ington school of dentistry, a lead ing authority on children’s den tistry and care of the teeth. Dr. Brauer said few children, would experience dental pain dur ing their lives if they practiced preventive measures now known to dental science. Most older peo ple are doomed because of their past habits. lifted the Soviet blockade and ended the crisis. HE CHARGED that the western powers fear “most of all” to reach any agreement with the Soviet Union. “What they want is not agree ment and cooperation, but talk about agreement and coopera tion, so as to put the blame on the U. S. S. R. by preventing agree ment, and to ‘prove’ that coopera tion is impossible.” Stalin’s statem ent obviously was issued as a high-powered propa ganda stroke—a move the Rus sians undoubtedly hoped would tip the Berlin scales in their favor. H e a d l i n e r s IN YORK, Pa. . . . Mrs. Walter Sechrist made a wide-eyed an nouncement that her gas range picks up short wave transmissions made by her next-door neighbor, an amateur radio operator, vowed it had broadcast a conversation be tween the neighbor and another op erator in South America. IN SALEM, Mass. . . . Robert C. Carter claimed in a divorce suit that his wife had deserted him a block from the church just two minutes after they were m arried in 1944.

Parrott looked down his nose at the man with the gun trying to rob him of his postal receipts, sneered, “The revolver is not loaded, you know.” “Sorry,” said the crushed desperado, slink ing away.

Frank Weimirski was forced to reassure his customers as to the fact that he still was in the popcorn and soft drink business after he began mak ing deliveries with an old hearse. BLUFFING: In Berlin Gen. H. H. Arnold, wartime com- mander-in-chief of the U. S. air forces, turned up in the news with a military man’s hearty opinion about what to do with the Russians in Berlin. “WHY NOT take a motor convoy and push it through the corridor to Berlin?” he suggested. “Perhaps we might have learned something from Gen. George Patton’s tech nique. If Patton were running the show he would take it through.” Russia, he' claimed, is attempt ing a tremendous bluff against the U. S. and the western allies, but is “not ready to fight, doesn’t want to fight and won’t fight” if some one should call her bluff. • WHAT would the Russians do if Sn armed convoy did plow through the blockade? “Not much, if any thing,” was Arnold’s laconic esti mate. “It would be a grave and basic error to let the Communists bluff us out in the present deadlock in Germany. “They are not ready to fight and they do not want to fight. We should curb the national tendency to be in awe of the Russians, an awe amounting almost to fear. “TIME plays with the Russians. We have the superior power now. They may have it later. Meantime, it would be folly to let them bridge the gap by bluff alone.” Whefeer he was right or wrong, Hap Arnold at least had done the worrying U. S. public one favor: By reducing the problem to hard, simple terms of pure action and divorcing it from the intricate realm of diplomacy he made it ap pear more understandable, less overwhelming and less frighten ing. General Arnold, at least isn’l expecting a war tomorrow. Highway Tax Evasion AROUND the army’s Pentagon, largest office building in tlie world, winds a network of modern istic macadam highways which have now become the center of one of the capital’s most interesting hush-hush income tax scandals. For the men who built the high ways, W. J. “Doc” Hardy and F. McKenzie Davison of the Arlington Asphalt company, apparently did hot feel they should pay full taxes on the profits they made from Uncle Sam. In fact, treasury agents who finally caught up with the pair, es tim ate that they quick-changed Uncle Sam out of $500,000. Probably that explains a yacht, a home in Florida and a new mansion in Virginia. However, the two Virginia con structors have been frantically pull ing wires on Capitol Hill, especially with Virginia’s Sen. Harry E. Byrd, and for a time it looked as if their tax case was stalled. Some of the tricks used by the Virginia asphalt kings to duck in come taxes were just as devious as the cobweb of highways they built around the Pentagon. For example, they made out checks for several thousand dol lars to W. W. Thomas and S. M. Redd, contractors, who later gave T-men affidavits that they never received the checks. What Hardy and Davison did was forge endorsements and cash the checks themselves, then deduct the amount of the checks from their income-tax returns.* • * Cadillacs and Mansion The two kings of Virginia Asphalt also made out other false invoices and vouchers which they deducted from their income taxes, and jug gled funds carelessly between their private accounts and the company’s account. Both Mrs. Hardy and Mrs. Davison received a weekly salary of $75 from Arlington Asphalt, though not seen working for the company. Hardy also used workers, paid out of company funds, to help build his palatial new Virginia mansion; while Davison drives Cadillac and Lincoln automobiles, both owned by the company. He keeps another com pany Cadillac at his winter home in Miami. Queried about this, Davison replied: “Ton’d be surprised at the company business we have in Florida.” To investigate Hardy and Davison, the bureau of internal revenue sent six agents simultaneously to grill key witnesses. As the T-men closed in, Hardy and Davison hurriedly hired a tax attorney, I. William Stempil, formerly of the bureau of internal revenue and who knew all six agents personally. But Stempil got nowhere.* • • Goes Into Reverse Then the Arlington Asphalt own ers pulled their ace card and called on Senator B jrd for help. J. W. Bar ton, partner in the Subsidiary Coal company, boasted that Byrd would “fix” the case; but when this care less talk got out, Barton was called on the carpet by Hardy and Davison and a denial was issued. That began a rash of strangely conflicting stories. When tax attor ney Stempil learned Hardy and Dav ison had been seen going into Byrd’s office, he admitted they had con sulted Byrd about their tax trou bles. Davison, however, said his call on Byrd had nothing to do with taxes. Later, confronted with Stempil’s statem ent that taxes were discussed with Byrd, Davison revised his statem ent and explained they had gone to see Byrd “principally about another m atter,” but had talked about the tax case. Yet Byrd emphatically denied any knowledge of the case. Queried by this column about his talks with Hardy and Davison, the senator from Virginia snorted: “I never m et them . I never even heard of them.” Next day, however, Senator Byrd’s office telephoned to say that the senator’s memory had been bad, that he had talked with Hardy and Davison, though he refused to help them. Byrd Treason Exposed! On November I, 1947, Drew Pearson exposed one of Uie strangest treason cases of the war—that of an air force lien* tenant, Martin Jam es Monti of St. Louis, who had stolen a 17. S. plane, flown from India to Italy and deserted to the Germans. Thereafter, Pearson charged, Monti had enlisted in the elite SS corps and served in the Nazi army. Pearsonalso revealed that Mon ti as of that date—November I, 1947—was still in the U. S. army! Recently, however, Lieutenant Monti was formally indicted by a federal grand jury in New Tork on a charge of treason for be coming an officer in the elite SS corps. W a s h i n g t o n D i & e s t ; Elections Will Bring Out Those Cave Man Instincts B y BAUKHAGE Neivs Analyst and Commentator. WASHINGTON.—I know you may find it hard to believe, but I was greatly stirred up over the election campaign and its out come. I have a job and it’s as tough under one party as another. I have no vote, and between you and me, I am not agitating for a civil rights bill which will get me one. Like all of the citizens of the District of Columbia, I share the delight ful irresponsibility with minors, idiots and criminals who don’t have B vote either. Baukhage Thus, I am without political af-^ filiation, obligation, or prejudice. Well — sometimes I do have one prejudice—a race prejudice. Some times I get awful ly p re ju d ic ed against the human race. Another reason that I am not po litically e x cited this year is that I have been watch ing the Washing ton v au d ey ille show from a good seat in the gallery press and radio gallery—most of the time for the past three decades, and although the performers have changed, there hasn’t been too much alteration of the script. A Republican or a Dem ocratic politician, to a reporter smells no sweeter by any name. It is my business to report what they do and say, and, of course, from my standpoint, the more they do and say, the better—let the brickbats fall where they may. I have observed a good many acts on the Washington scene that got top billing—and deserved it. I have also listened to a lot of pret ty sad comedians and seen a lot of hams. But on the whole I believe that, regardless of who happens to be in the cast, taking it all in all, it’s a pretty high class dram a. In fact, I think as we compare the Wash ington program with most of those that are offered by the other capi tals of the world, it’s really the greatest show on earth. However, during campaign time I must admit I would rather be right (where I am) than President. On any ticket. Now don’t think I am object ing to our good old knock-down, drag-out method of electing Presidents or any other officials. I not only think it’s a wonderful thing that we have this free- for-all every four years, bnt I think both parties would wither on the vine if we didn’t. In fact I think the abandonment of our method would probably bring crashing to the ground the palla dium of our republic, would de stroy our opportunity to pursue life, liberty and happiness—and the weekly pay envelope—and would reduce these United States to such a condition that the Indians wouldn’t take the property back if we, offered it to them. I base this statem ent not upon mere guess but upon sound scien tific studies of the question of why we behave like human beings (when we do). Now I don’t know how far you will go along with the psychiatrists who claim your athlete’s foot is due to a complex created when you were two years old by having your big brother drop a baseball bat on your toe. Nevertheless I think one thing has been established by psychiatry—a truism confirmed by writers and poets of all ages and which you can confirm yourself by going over some of your own inner thoughts. Especially when you think what you’d like to do to the m an who crumpled your fender while you were attending prayer meeting. I refer to the accepted truism that even the most benign and mild-mannered Mr. Milquetoastv has a caveman deep within him. $ One has only to observe one’s own angel-child who, on his way home from Sunday School, and in cooperation with the angel-children of one’s neighbors, will tie a can to a dog’s tail or engage in a dozen other “humane” activities that would give a visiting cannibal from the South Seas something to write home about. We DO have a caveman within, us; we DO have primitive, aggres sive instincts. We have the instinct to give pain, to destroy, to take advantage of our fellow-man. The early period of our lives is spent in being taught to turn these instincts to good purpose. The psychologists call it “sublimating” them. The sadistic inclination of a medical student can be transmuted, under, the influence of civilized society, to make him the finest surgeon. The desire to plunder and rob and destroy, common to even the most angelic little ones, can be channeled into the ingenu ity by which the engineer moves mountains and captains of in dustry push railways through the forest, and thus benefit in stead of harm mankind. Do you suppose we could put on that greatest of all exhibitions—a World Series game—if it weren’t for the old cave-man? I have heard it said that base ball has become the monarch of sports because it brings into play so many of the primitive emotions. First, we have pursuit, without which primitive m an could not get the food necessary to sustain him self and his family (or even a wife to raise the family). Then—another primitive pastime used in baseball—-pity the poor cave-man who couldn’t accurately heave a rock! It only requires plenty of practice in a summer camp plus what was learned in the sandlot to turn that basic desire into the ability to pitch a no-hit, no- run game. Take one more example. As the cave-man progressed, he learned to use a club. So there it is—base runner, pitcher, batsman. P rim itive Urges Basic in Democracy Just as the sublimation of primi tive instinct has formed the great sport of the greatest democracy in the world—so the sublimation of some of these instincts behind an cient tribal customs has made our democracy itself possible. In a successful democracy, instincts are not repressed. They are merely modified so that they fit into a human and humane society. As you know, by the tim e man had reached the point where he had organized himself into a clan, it was the “papa” who ran things. He was the chief because he had the one quality most essential in those days of self and group pro tection—strength. His term of office was not lim ited by statute. Some of the chiefs even ran for a fourth term. But as the “papa” grew older— if not wiser—he also grew weaker. But his sons were growing stronger. Finally they felt it was time to hold an election. (They had had their prim aries of course, and had picked a candidate). Then the campaign began. It was usually quite short—but very snappy. Both candidates were armed with good- sized clubs. The debate took place at some point where the non-vot- Lng but interested electorate (this was before women’s suffrage) could watch with as little personal danger as possible. Of course the best man finally won. Inauguration ceremonies took place immediately, attend ed by all of the tribe except, a couple who were delegated to bury the defeated candidate. Then the younger brothers and the females settled down to maintain peace, prosperity, and the pursuit of happiness. Let me quote one or two para graphs from the work of that very fascinating book by Dr. Gregory Zilboorg — “Mind, Medicine, and Man.” “It is difficult to find any func tion of our democratic society which surpasses or even approximates an electoral campaign in intensity and blatancy of aggression. Acrimony, anger, hate, slander, venality ap pear — everything except actual homicide. The proverbial lid is lit erally off the reservoir of patricidal drives, and society hurls itself on its symbolic victim with all the en ergy of a primitive cannibal. It is primitive cannibalism, whether St expresses itself in campaign slan der, whispering campaigns, political maneuvering, or flattery of the in dolent who do not care. A father is to be killed by way of democratic ceremonial, and a new one will at once‘be set up by way of the same ceremonial.” In other words, we bad a healthy fight in November and ggr it out of our systems. The cave-man within us was satis- yfied. We’ve got ourselves a President, and nobody has com mitted murder. And there in we have an advan tage not shared by some other coun tries. For here, even between elec tions, we allow the cave-man to roar unmuzzled in the press, over the radio, and from the rostrum. He can brandish his verbal club and hurl his barbed epithets in the very face of the President, the congress, and the town meeting. ■ And thereby, likewise, we prove our strength, a strength which de rives not from the atomic bomb, but from a power that can and does penetrate peacefully even through an iron curtain. A married man is a better adapt er than a single man, says the American Machinist. He probably has learned that it is adapt or in crease Fido’s housing problem.

LPhiHipr 'IKE' TAKES A LEAP It now can be said officially that “Ike” Eisenhower is president of Columbia university. The formal installation was held the other day with a distinctly global touch. Rep resentatives of 310 American col leges, 38 foreign universities and 37 learned societies showed up. *_ Columbia is a dignified university and needs no ballyhoo, but publicity of the right sort hurts no institu tion and Columbia couldn’t have won more space in newsreels and newspapers if Ike’s installation had had an assist from Billy Rose, Lar ry MacPhail, Twentieth Century Fox and the Ringling Brothers. » It was the greatest attend ance of educational celebrities ever gathered under one tent, and the first tim e there was emphasis on choreography *__ To a casual passerby the cere monial had touches of-the New Or leans Mardi Gras, the Rose Bowl game, the landing in Prance, the inaugural of Teddy Roosevelt and the funeral of Rudolf Valentino. Co lossal was the name for it.' *_ And it could only happen here. A man, never a teacher in his life, unnoted for book learning, essen tially a great soldier and the leader of the armies that won a global war was just placed in charge of one of the largest universities on earth. A few years ago “Ike,” pic tured in cap and gown, would have aroused suspicions of sabotage; to day he would look odd in a .brass- hat. *_ From the beaches of Norman dy to the campus of Morning- side Heights is as long a drive as any the general made In Eu rope. Grant would have seemed impossible as head of Harvard, it would have been hard to pic ture Pershing as dean of Tale and nobody ever suggested Ad m iral Dewey as top man at Princeton. But such is the per sonality, ability and prestige of General “Ike” that his trans formation from the shot and shell to book and quill seems fine and dandy.♦ "What other country could call its top army hero “Prexy” ? *_ "Abilene Ike,” conqueror of the Nazis, winding up on University Heights, giving zip to the college spirit, hoping for a good season on the gridiron and wondering how the bics are doing in sociology . . , ;vhat a leap and what a man!♦ We have a notion that once in a while even now the general locks himself in the library, looks at him self in the m irror and then calls the university phone exchange, say ing softly, “I think this is Dean Eisenhower; will you please con firm it?” *_ “Ike” must be an inspiration to the kids. It will seem silly to say “I just can’t lick this subject” to a guy who licked the Nazi menace from a stand ing start, with broomsticks as the early training weapon. *_ ‘‘Ike could have been our next President without half trying. The time cries for a personality of his charm, horse sense and fiber. And he may make it sometime in the days to come. We wish to warn him, however, that he is in great peril.

See that yields of crops, production of live stock, cash expenses and receipts are recorded properly. 2 WATCH MARKET TRENDS. * By consistently reading m arket outlooks or discussions on prices, which reflect the most probable fu ture situations, farm ers and ranch ers will have a guide to use in plan ning production. Thus they will be able to have produce ready to sell at the right time to realize the high est price and still have livestock and land more fertile for the following year. ^ 3 PLAN LABOR.

Latest figures show a steady decrease in the number of mules used for farm power in this state. Replacing them are jeeps, representing another step forward in farm mechanization.

F orem an We need them mTPHE opposite of poetry is not prose; it is science.” There were poets in the wprld long before there were scientists, but that does not prove that poets are out of date. Many people in our modem world think we could not get along without sci ence but could well burn all the books of poetry. If we did, it would be a dreadful mistake. Poet and scientist each has his truth to see and to speak. .. — both. Certainly if we tried to bum all the poems we should have to destroy some of the best-loved parts of the Bible.> * « Not All Poets Have Long Hair OOME "practical" people snifi at poets for being peculiar. “Long- hairs” is a slang name for them as for other people who know some thing besides arithmetic. As a m atter of fact, many poets are very practical people them selves: engineers, farm ers and sol diers all have written poetry. The poets of the Bible are of many sorts. If you will look into an editon of the Bible in which the poetic sec tions are printed as poetry is print ed in other books, you will be im pressed by the very large propor tion of poetry, especially in the Old Testament. The new Study Bible or the American Revised Version or MofEatt’s translation will show this at a glance. These Bible poem s are of va rious kinds. Som e are w ar- songs (Judges 5), som e are prov erbs (the book of P roverbs), dram a (Job), love-songs (the Song of Songs), odes (Isaiah 40), p rayers (Psalm 16), hym ns for public w orship (the P salm s). The writers were never profes sional poets, so far as we know. Of the poems which are this week’s lesson Scripture, two were written by housewives, one by a sheep-herd- er, one or more by a soldier-king, one by a preacher (Habakkuk) 1 and only one (Lamentations) possibly by a professional poet. The original Hebrew book of Lamentations does not claim Jerem iah for its author; but if he was the writer, then it was written by the most practical man of his time.• * * World’s Greatest Hymn Book, « 1 ET me write a nation’s songs, and I care not who writes their laws,” said a famous man. The same thing can be said about re ligion. “Let me write a church’s hymnbook, and I care not who writes their theologies.” The hymns our mothers loved, the hymns we heard before we heard any other kind of poetry, the hymns that we have learned by heart and that become a part of our minds— these mean far more to most peo ple than all the printed creeds. Now the C hristian religion is a singing religion. Our very first hymnbook w as the Book of P salm s, and all the hym nals since, down to the present day, grew out of this one book in the Bible. It is the greatest hym n book in the w orld; not the long est nor the oldest, but the great est in its influence for good upon m ankind.* * * Poetry Was in Jesus Blood OUR Lord Jesus himself, it '-'tru ly can be said, poetry was in his veins. He came of a poetic family. His most famous ancestor, David, was a poet; another royal ancestor, Hezekiah, wrote poetry. The book he knew best, the Old Testament, was full of poetry. His own mother Mary, before he was born, sang a song of her own mak ing, so beautiful that it is still sung in Christian churches and loved the world around. When Jesus died on the cross, two of the la st seven sentences th a t cam e from his lips w ere quotations from the Psalm s. The poetry of his people w as in his blood, for in his la st agony the w ords th a t cam e from Iiis break ing h eart w ere w ords first spok en by the poets of the Bible long ago. So it is always. “Truth in song will tarry long.” Today and al ways, the parts of the Bible which are most cherished, the parts most often learned by heart, the parts which we carry with us to the val ley of the shadow of death, are the truths set to music, long centuries ago, by inspired men who knew how to clothe truth with garments of shining and immortal loveliness.

Mkenset Swap Talk Other day two of your friends were swapping talk. One was Mr Ernest N. Welloff. He claims no great genius, but does know some thing of what America has m eant' to him. Born of immigrant parents, he learned as a boy to work hard. Saved his money, later put it to work for other people. His business is manufacturing. He boosts the American Way, not so much for what it has done for him as for what it has enabled him to do for himself. His employee, Willie B. Secure, is not so sure. He always thought “security” was simply saving up for the "rainy day.” That is, un til certain persons got hold of him. They just about convinced him that capitalists are his enemies. Wil lie’s no Communist. He is just one of the 29 per cent of our population that believes company profits are 30 cents and more per dollar of sales. (Actually, they’re less than 10 cents!) Squeeze Play This scene began as Willie met up with his idea of capitalism, Mr. Welloff. Neither of them are stuffed- shirts. They are quite on speak ing terms. Welloff. How’re you getting along, Willie? Willie: Pretty good, but not mak ing as much as I’d like to. Welloff: Neither is the company. We’ve got caught between prices and costs. Equipment is sky-high. Materials are sky-high. We can’t in crease prices much more. What’s your trouble? Willie: Same thing. Can’t make ends meet. Welloff: If only we could get more production, Willie, we might raise wages. Without more production, it would be tough on us. A tax cut would help, too. Willie: You mean the company couldn’t pay an increase? I thought it was plenty able to pay. Welloff: What we get comes from customers, Willie. We’d have to pass it on to the public. Your wages are part of our production costs. We collect your wages from our customers. Our workers got 90 per cent of our sales dollar last year. Willie: You mean that the union is asking for wage increases from the people? Welloff: You know those new au tomatic machines we’ve been plan ning on? They cost plenty. Should we pay raises out of money we put aside last year for those? Willie: WeU1 no, Mr. Welloff. Just let me get my hands on one of those beauties. Letcha I can impress the foreman plenty! Welloff: Sure. And your produc tion will go up. Your higher pro duction will help us get more in come out of which we can gladly pay increases. Willie: But, Eddie over there says the stockholders are taking us for a ride. They’re rolling in dough, you know. Welloff. Well, we paid them a dividend last year, but it didn’t make them rich. Good Security Willie: What did they do to de serve it? Welloff: I’his big building we’re in, and that annex we’re putting up—our stockholders let us have money they’d saved. Their money has created jobs in this town. Willie: They’re Wall Street bank ers and wealthv big-wigs, aren’t they, Mr. Welloff? Welloff: No. Most of our stock is owned by people like yourself, professional men and women, and small businessmen. 'People who have saved up’a nest-egg.

JrkKKSM Dangerous Malady What the Russians stand for has lately come under heavy attack from almost every group and indi vidual in America. We are almost unanimous. Current Congressional investigations at last seem to be hitting pay dirt. Russia herself, by strangling little Czechoslovakia and conducting the “cold war,” has been losing some of her friends. In fluential Communists are deserting, once they see what Russia’s “ideol ogies” really are like. In Our Generation No m atter by what name you call it, state control has grown in al most every country you can name. This has happened in our genera tion. After World War I, politicians in many nations sensed their oppor tunities for power. Usually, this power was obtained through eco nomic tyranny. Heavy taxes, false money, and tinkering with produc tion and distribution kept Uie tyr anny in power. Finally, it was Ger many, Italy, and Japan that brought on another terrible war. They were the “statist” nations. In each of these nations aggression against other countries followed ag gression against the individual at home. Little nations, weakened by statism of their own, were easy vic tims. When tbeir people did not care to resist and nothing seemed worthwhile, totalitarianism could find easy pickings. Now, statist Russia continues this sorry busi ness. Recognize the Infection The infection of statism is at its worst in Russia, but we have not escaped it in America. We cannot always call it Communism, for un fortunately it does not always wear the name. Yet its effects are un mistakable. It demoralizes every thing. Those in government can then justify a growing hunger for more and more power. Statesmen lose their vision to become mere politicians. They come to believe that the state can do everything. The citizen is demoralized by Statism. He gets to the point where he does not resist inroads on his liberties. He becomes a slave of the state. ,He is willing to follow evil courses no m atter whether his heart tells him they are wrong. Re sistance is simply not worthwhile. This is an exact picture of the Ger man people before and during World Wars I and II. It fits also the Ital ians and the Japanese in World War II. America’s Danger The picture fits Russia, too. It is the statist, government-controlled countries that soon take their peo ple down the road to war. Nations do not foment wars when the people have a say-so. The greatest danger in America today is that we shall adopt one by one the ways of stat ism, even while denouncing Com munism. This is what Russia would like to see us do. Instead, we must learn to identify the infection, no m atter what label it may carry. One label we are learning to avoid is Communism, but our un derstanding of it is usually pretty sketchy. Read and study "Com munism in Action,” a 140-page bodklet, prepared by the Library of Congress. Copies may be ob tained free from: American Wage Earners Foundation, 30 N. La Salle St., Chicago, 111. This is a factual study that will show the results of statism in Russia. It will convince you that neither you nor America could be better off under govern ment managed economy. A disreputable-looking character waylaid a member of a swanky club as he stepped into his car. “Just gimme a penny, mister,” he whined, “I’m starving.” The member of the club obliged, but could not help remarking: “I’m afraid you won’t be able to buy much food for a penny these days.” > “It’s not for food,” said the tramp. “I ain’t had a bite now for six days, and I want to weigh myself!” W O K IN G AHEAD GEORGE S. BENSON PresiieKt-MKtdlKg Cellegt Seereg. JrkKKtM Snafu, Snarlieu The French Government would like very much to get 500 new dwell ing units put up in Paris, for Paris is home to nearly 3,000,000 French men. Paris is terribly overcrowd ed. This fabulous city would like to have room for tourists and visitors, too. But, unfortunately, France is a country where the government “controls” things, and things are in a snarl. Housing is one thing con trolled by the government. Hous ing, alas, is in a snarl. To build 500 units of “public” housing, the government would have to have money. But the na tional budget is already loaded down. In France, there are salaries of multitudes of government em ployees, there are pensions, and there are numerous other things the government is doing for the people. AD these things cost money. In fact, costs to the government of France are legion. The govern ment figured it could run things properly, and it is still spending. Enterprise Deceased. But, alas, the money for the need ed 500 units cannot be found. Well, why does not free enterprise do it? In France there is hardly such a thing as free and private enter prise. The government, you see, has made laws against this and that. It is still all right to own property, but it is getting mighty unpopular. Even so, a group of property owners has proposed to build seme rental housing, if the government wiD let them. These private owners have asked to build this housing on a nonprofit basis, without any return on invest ment, if the government will per m it them to collect, rents to cover maintenance and depreciation. This is the kind of situation that exists in a country where government management is the order of the day. In France, a man spends three times as much a year for his pipe tobacco as he does for his house rent. (Tobacco is plentiful, but houses are scarce.) Under “Control” m fact, rents are cheap in France. But then, you see, everything is in a snarl. Housing and rentals of aD kinds are shrinking to the vanish ing point. Rent is very weU con- troUed. The average worker is said to be paying from I to 2 per cent of his annual wages for rent. Even a well-to-do family that makes about $5,000 a year, pays only $45 a year for five rooms and bath. Their bifl for tobacco is likely to run higher! Of course, there :sn’t much hous ing, and not likely to be much more. The government cannot buil I, because it cannot afford the costs. Private interests cannot build, be cause the government will not let them. Moreover, nobody wants to build. Anyone who owns propertv, especially property for rent, is looked upon with suspicion. It is said that property owners who rent are popularly known as “vultures ” The joy of owning a cottage is fad ing away. Freedom to Build I am glad things are not that way in America. America is blest with a system that makes possible' the highest Dving standards known to man. Our system lets each one of us work as hard as we please to make our drearns come true. We do not depend upon hand-outs from the State, nor do we wait for gov ernment to build us houses. In fact, a public housing bill, if passed by Congress, would do much to take us downhill—the way France has gone. A small retailer in a city had been trying for months to collect an over due biU. But aU his pleas and threats w£re completely disregarded. As a last resort, he sent a tear- jerking letter accompanied by a snapshot of his little daughter. Un der the picture he wrote: "The rea- j son I must have my money.” i A prompt reply enclosed a photo graph of a beautiful blonde in a bathing suit, labeled: ‘The reason I can’t pay.” W eather Science to Tame D estructive Ice and Hall There is a very good possibility that destructive hailstorms may be eliminated in Uie future, and seri ous ice storms may be "tam ed” in winter, according to snow-and-rain- making scientists, National Patent council reports. By introducing large quantities of ice nuclei at and above the freez ing level in high cumulus clouds, hail particles would be unable to grow to any considerable size, ac cording to Vincent J. Shaefer; con sultant to "Project Cirrus,” a weather research program being conducted by the army signal corps and office of naval research. - There is evidence that the seri ous ice storms of last winter result ed from formation of rain in super cooled clouds, according to Shaefer. Under such conditions, it should have been possible to convert all this rain to snow. It is unlikely that the inconvenience and traffic trou ble produced by an increase in snowfaU would be as great as that caused by icy streets, broken pow er, light and telephone wires, and the breakage of shade and fruit Not aU ice storms can be related to supercooled clouds, in Shaefer’s opinion, but last winter’s storms point out the importance of know ing more about such situations and having facilities to cope with them when the situation could stand im provement.

Institution The Passion p.'r.y. a religious insti tution of Europe and an outstanding part of the people's teachings, was an outgrowth of a custom of re-enacting the story of the Resurrection on mast er morning in all churches. The Leu- nen, oldest and most magnificent of the five major passion plays, was or iginally a holy week pageant. The Luenen passion play was es tablished at Reunen, Germany, in 1242. Flayers were selected from among the common people to serve their lifetime and train their child ren to follow them in the parts they had played. The famous Oberammergau pa geant was begun in 1634, 400 years after the Leunen. Leunen has now become a U. S. in stitution in the Black Hills of South DaKota, It has been re-named the Black Hills passion Play, and is the only original passion play now in ex istence. As it stayed for 700 years in Leunen, Joseph Meier, the Christus, and the people helping to establish it, believe it will be produced here for many centuries to come. Veterinarians Urge Need For Cattle Test Program Nationwide efforts to reverse the downward trend in testing cattle for tuberculosis, to prevent this disease from again mailing headway, have been urged by the American Veterin ary Medical association. Figures for the past year showed another drop in the number of cattle tested. The total was 8,300,000 com pared with a rate of 12 to 14 mil lion a year during 1938-1941. Farm authorities, veterinarians and cattle owners in some states have al ready started campaigns to step up testing rate. “But this effort must have the cooperation of all areas if we are to hold the line against bovine tuberculosis,” the statement added. “For as long as even a few tubercul osis eattel remain, we cannot feel sure against this danger to human health and disastrous losses of milk and meat production.” Tuberculosis was found last year in herds in new and unexpected loca tions, further emphasizing the need for restoring the testing program to cs pre-war basis. Flight Tndning for Cadets Air force aviation cadets who have successfully completed basic pilot training and who have been selected for advanced training in multiengine bomber aircraft are sent to Barks dale field, Shreveport, La., according to “Army Life.” A further division of th* class is then made, with approxi mately half of the cadets being as signed to four-engine -3-17 flying fortresses and the other half to Uvin- engine B-25 “Mitchell” bombers. Si milar ground school subjects are taught each division, with necessary specialization included. For example, a cadet undergoing flying training ir, a B-17 studies the electrical and hy draulic systems of that plane while taking courses such as navigation anti weather identical to those taken by B-25 students. Other ground schooi subjects common to both divisions in clude: flight planning, flying safety, radio communications, electronics and radar, and aural and visual code. "Mikado” Now Played in Japan “Mikado,” an hilarious satire on a mythical e m p e ro r of the flowery land —a rank that once connoted divin ity—brought diplomatic repercus sions between Japan and Great Bri tain in 1885, when it was first pro duced. Japan made an official pro test, but the dispute stopped short ot the shooting stage. Today the Japan ese a r e laughing out loud at the Mi kado—and laughter is a rare occur rence in the Japanese theater. Even the emperor’s brother, Prince Nobu- hito Takamatsu, showed up for one performance and managed a smile when the stage emperor sang of his “object all sublime . . . to make the punishment fit the crime.’” The Mi kado was produced by Americans in Japan last year, but this is the first performance by a Japanese cast. Open to Historians Approximately 80 per cent of all official war department documents pertaining to combat operations of the army in World Wiu- n now are available for examination by histor ians and other writers. While hostili ties were in progress, most of these records were classified as secret, but during the. last two years a great deal of progress has been made in removing the secret classification and making them accessible to writers. Only exceptions are those documents' involving the security of the nation and those covered by binding agree ments with other agencies or govern ments. A T hrifty Dog A NGUS MacTAVISH took excep tional pride in his dog’s thrifty ways. A good friend arrived at his home one day and with disbelief listened to the tale of the penny-wise dog. When MacTavish left for the kitchen to mix some drinks he de cided to test the little Scotch terrier. He slipped the dog a penny and or dered him to go to the local bakery and buy a bun. Then he followed the dog. To his consternation the dog trotted to the backyard where he buried the coin. Repeating the experiment, he gave the dog another cent and each time he buried it in the ground until he had accumulated five cents. Then he gathered y the pennies, went down to the bakery and bought six buns for five cents. INSOLT TO INJURY When Uncle Zeke got back to Cactus Junction he swore he was through with New York for life. “I’m crossin’ the street and mindin’ my own business,” he told his cronies round the old cracker barrel, “when a varmint comes lickety split aroupd the corner on two wheels and knocks me flat. D’ye think he apolo gized? No siree! He leans out and hollers, 'Hey, Pop, as long as you’re down there, how about checking my oil?’ ” Perfect Cooperation For several months a jeweler had noticed a man stopping outside his window each morning to check his watch with the jeweler’s clock. One morning the jeweler said to him, “I have noticed you stopping here every morning to check your watch and I’m glad that I can be of some service to you.” “I’m the engineer over at the iron works,” the man replied. “I blow the whistle by my watch, which I check every morning with your clock before I go to work.” ‘‘That’s a good one on both of us!” exclaimed the jeweler, “for I set my clock with your whistle.” WHO ME? A gangster rushed into a saloon shooting right and left, yelling, “All you dirty skunks get outta here!” The customers fled in the hail of bullets—all except an Englishman who stood at the bar calmly finish ing his drink. “Well?” snapped the gangster. “Well,” replied the Englishman, “there certainly were a lot of them, weren’t there?” He Wasn’t Joking Father: “Git yer jacket aff, young mon, an’ come wi' me." Jock: "Yer no goin’ to lick me. are you, Father?” Father: “I am that! Didn’ I tell yer this morning that I’d settle wi’ y e r fer bad behavior?” Jock: “Ay, but I thought it was only a joke, like whin ye telt the grocer ye’d settle wi’ him.” When Smith walked into his friend’s office he found him looking very depressed. “Hullo, old man,” he said, “what’* up?” “Oh, just my wife,” replied the other sadly. “She’s engaged a new secretary for me.” “Well, there’s nothing wrong about .that. Is she a blonde or a brunette?” “He’s bald.” Guatemalan Fans Bet High On Soccer in Early Days Archaeologists in Guatamala have come across the ruins of a long, rec- tagular ball court where the natives of ancient Zaculeu crowded to watch forerunner of our present-day soc cer. Middle America information bureau reports that evidence unearthed at the site seems to indicate that the teams who battled at the arena rang ed from the intimacy of man-to-man combat to the wild struggles of two small armies. Aim of the teams was to keep the baU, made of solid natural rubber, off the floor as much as possible until it was knocked into the opposing end zone. Naturally enough, the game attain ed a deep significance in Mayan life. The players spent an all night vigil of prayer before each game, The Mayan was also a heavy bet tor. He wagered his personal posses sions, his land, his clothes, and even his liberty. Somewhat like the Spanish mata dor, a successful player was regarded as a national hero. Pistol of Frontier Days Fired One Shot At a Time The pistol is the invention of Ca- iinello Vitelli, who brought it into existence in about 1540, in the town of Pistoria, Italy, where he lived. The weapon is named after that town. Vitelli’s invention was the answer to some sort of weapon on the order ■f a gun which was of rather light weight, and which could be handled and fired by one man. Prior to his time weapons were ponderous affairs, on the order of cannons. The pistol continued to be the only hand-weapon until some centuries la ter when Samuel Colt, an American citizen, improved upon an English de sign by devising the revolver. In its original design the pistol fir ed only a single shot, whereas the re volver, having a chamber which turn ed, could project from five to seven bullets In one loading. Pistols were much in use in Ameri ca’s frontier days. Inasmuch as it fir ed but one shot at a time, the men who called it into action had to be deadly accurate or run the risk of being shot down by a better “shot.” Among the crack shots of his time was William F. Cody, more familiarly known as "Buffalo Bill.” Brazilian Waterweed a Menace . Within the past two years a serious threat to several Oregon lakes has developed—the threat of the loss of both recreational and industrial usage of those waters through encroach ment of aquatic vegetation. The most offending plant species is the Brazil ian waterweed. Native plants that are causing trouble include the American waterweed, coontail, pondweeds, and algae. One of the most frequent means of introduction of these harm ful weeds is through the well-meant plantings made by laymen, points out the Oregon game commission. Sever al aquatic nurseries seU plants to the public with the advertisement, “Bring ducks, fish and wildlife to your wa ters.” Actually much of their vege tation has little value or attraction for wildlife and to plant such species may do more harm than good. Keeping Soil In Balance Growing crops remove plant food from the soil, tillage destroys organic matter, and erosion causes soil losses on sloping land, points out Hugh Wil son, extension soil conservationist at Cornell- To keep soil in balance, all three causes of deterioration must be corrected by a "balance of treat ments". An example given of plant food removal was a 300-bushel potato crop. This takes from the soil 63 pounds of nitrogen, 27 pounds of phosphorous, and 30 pounds of pot ash. To replace this food requires 1200 pounds of 5-10-5 fertilizer and perhaps additional fertilizer to take care of losses from leaching, fixation and erosion. . Cattle Loss from Ueel Flies Damage done to cattle by heel flies and grubs is more extensive than many people realize, researchers say. Annoyed by the flies, cattle run off much flesh in fly season. Later, when the grubs are burrowing inside the animals, the resulting irritation, sore ness and general run down condition is the cause of unthriftiness of cattle. Punctured by^ the grubs when they move to the ~ backs of the animals, hides are often reduced in value by iO'*per cont. Because of the damage grubs cause, much emphasis has been placed on their control in recent years. Seen Along M ain Street IBy The Street Ram bler.

FICTION CORNER SQUALLS By MAUD McCURDY WELCH Gramma's experience in squalls with her seafaring husband prepared her admirably for the role she was called upon to play when Nedra and John called off their marriage. ■\TEDRA had been crying. Sitting in her chair by the big window in the living room, Gramma went on knitting. In one quick glance she’d seen that the girl had tried to hide the tear-stains by an inex pert dabbing of powder around her pretty blue eyes. After a minute Gramma said cas ually, “John left early.” “And not a minute too soon,” Nefira returned quickly, sinking deeper into the fireside chair and turning her face away. “Ho, so you two had a quarrel.” Gramma knitted a little faster than before. “No, a conflagration, an explo sion, a dissolution, a parting of the ways.” Nedra’s voice was both angry and vehement, and a little tearful too. “As bad as that?” Gramma in quired mildly. “I gave him his ring. It’s all over.” Nedra swallowed a sob quickly. Gramma made a little clucking sound but she went on plying her needles industriously. At last Nedra burst out unhap pily. "Well, aren't you going to console me, or congratulate me, whichever the case may be?” Gramma stopped knitting for a moment, looked up. “You and John have quarreled before. They are something like the squalls we’d sometime meet up with on the Samt Lawrence when I’d made a trip with your grandfather on his steam er. He was a sea-captain, you Snow. Well, there’d be a terrible lot of noise and wind, and then tne most beautiful calm you ever saw. it’s natural for people in love like you and Joltn to quarrel once in a while.” Nedra sat up. “Darling, you’re an incurable sentimentalist. John and I are sensible and modern and analytical about love, as all young people are nowadays. We’ve had several bitter quarrels since we be came engaged, so we’ve simply had to face the fact that we’re not com patible and that m arriage would be a mistake.” “It was sensible of course to face this before it was too late.” “It’s the modern way,” Nedra said in a small, desolate voice. “But love is not modern,” Gram ma observed quietly. Then she added, “but of course someday you’ll meet the right man.” The sudden white horror of Ned ra’s sweet face was lilte a shock. “There'll never be another man, never!” she exclaimed passionate ly, as she rose and left the room. Two or three days passed. One day at noon Nedra was lying on a chaise longue in her room, listlessly turning the pages of a magazine when Gramma burst in, excitingly waving two important looking tick ets. “Listen, darling, we’re going places. We’re shipping on a fruit- boat for . . . for . . .” she studied the tickets for a moment, “for Trin idad.” “Where on earth is that?” Nedra asked indifferently, still pretending to be interested in her magazine. Gramma lifted her shrewd dark brows. “My dear, I don’t seem to have the slightest idea, but if we stay on the boat long enough, I imagine we’ll find out.” Nedra sat up. “Now, look, you absurd darling, if you’re taking me on a sea voyage because you think my heart is broken, that’s out. Girls these days when disappointed in love, don’t waste time languishing. They go in for careers, maybe poli tics or something.” “It’s been the desire of my life to travel on a fruit-boat,” Gram ma said fervently. Nedra stared at her for a mo m ent; then yielded. “In that case we’ll go.” So it happened that in a very few more days, Gramma and Nedra found themselves on a fruit-boat bound for the intriguing destination of Trinidad. And on their very first morning on deck, they both saw a tall, dark young man standing at the rail, gazing moodily out to sea. Nedra’s heart almost stopped. She clutched Gramma’s arm and drew her around to the other side so quickly that she almost lost her P ^ r f T T T - to bring these two stubborn kids to gether would come to nothing at all. It looked plain enough that John and Nedra had no intention what ever of making up their quarrel.... Next morning Mother Nature her. self decided to take a hand. They awakened to find the ship tossing in a sudden gale, thunder roaring in demoniac fury, lightning flashing with every split second, the waves tearing at the ship as if possessed of the fury of a thousand devils. Nedra dressed hurriedly, went into Gramma’s room to find her also dressed, as early as it was. “Is it a hurricane?” Nedra asked shakily. “I don’t know, dear. I think I’ll just go and try to find out.” “Don’t stay long. I’m beginning to be frightened,” Nedra pleaded. “I’ll be back in a jiffy. There’s nothing to worry about. At least I think not.” She’d hardly disappeared before there was a loud knock on the door and John came in. “Nedra, Nedra darling, I had to find you, I had to tell you in . . . in case anything happened, that I still love you, and I always will.” "We were silly to think we could,” Nedra agreed softly. breath. “Hey, what goes?” Gram ma asked in Nedra’s own jargon. “That was John,” Nedra ex claimed breathlessly. Gramma straightened her neat black toque and got herself better organized. Then Nedra’s voice came suddenly accusingly. “And you knew it all the time. You did this on purpose.” She whirled around angrily. “I’m going to my cabin and I’m going to stay there.” Nedra kept her word. She stayed in all day, even though after she’d had her dinner, Gramma reminded her that there was nothing on earth more beautiful than a moonlit eve ning at sea. “What do I care about a silly old moon,” Nedra retorted in a voice that shook with tears. TT SEEMED a stalemate, so Gram- ma went on deck alone and soon found John, his boyish face looking tired and drawn even in the semi light. Gramma slipped into the chair beside him, and he said un happily, “Look here, Gramma, a man can’t go a thousand miles away, more or less, to forget a girl and stay on the same boat with her all the way.” “Why don’t you two youngsters make up?” “We decided that if we quarreled before m arriage, we’d do the same thing afterward. We’re trying to be logical and modern but . . .” his voice trailed away sadly. “Well, someday you’ll meet an other girl,” Gramma said lightly. “That’ll never happen . . . never. Don’t even mention a thing like that.” John’s voice was hoarse with pain. But just the same, it looked more and more as if Gramma’s plotting T H R O U G H G L A S S Grace Noll Crowell BsTAND before a jeweler’s plate glass pane: I That crystal-dear conductor o f the light. I watch the sunshine pierce the gorgeous stain O f rare gems dustered there before my sight: Crimson and purple fires banked in gold, And ice-white diamonds splintering the air, •- * Deep fires o f brilliant beauty to behold Displayed for any who may pass them thefe. I think o f God whose gradous hand prepares His living truths for all mankind to see. They shine aS dearly as these jeweled wares, To ever be revealed by you and me. Lord, shine through me as jewels shine througjh, glass, That men may see thy beauty as they pass. The next moment he had her in his arms. “And I still love you, John. The moment I knew the ship was in danger, I thought of you.” Nedra’s voice was a happy whisper. He bent his head and tilted her chin, “Which only goes to prove, dearest, that love is something that escapes all logic and reason and analysis. We can’t argue ourselves out of it just on the pretense of being realistic.” “We were silly to think we could,” Nedra agreed softly. “The only reason we quarreled,” John went on, “was because of my absurd jealousy, because I love you so very much.” “No,” Nedra contradicted ador ingly, “it was my bad tem per.” John shook his head quickly. “You have the temper of an angel, and we’ll never, never quarrel again in the future . . . if . . . there is a future left to us,” he finished brave ly- Neither of them was aware that the wind had ceased its wild roar and the deceitful sea had suddenly become as calm and benign as a summer day. Still holding each other in a close embrace, they hardly heard Gram ma when she came back and saw them together. “Just a squall,” she murmured softly as she went into her own stateroom, a happy smile wreathing itself around her lips. YrSf....................—............^ > 6 Hv NANCY PEPPER BE-KIND-TO-NYLONS WEEK Now, that your longer skirts and petticoats have forced you out of socks and saddles and into nylons and heels, we’re declar ing a “be-kind-to- nylons” week. We appealed to our hi style' scouts fo r ideas on nylon pres ervation and they’ve come through as usual with flying colors — also with fewer runs. If nylons are one of your economic problems you might want to try out their ideas. Preventative Measures—No more snags and runs from rough desk and chair edges in school, if you take a piece of sandpaper along with you and do a competent smoothing down job. Then the only disaster you need fear when you get up to go to the blackboard is not knowing the right answers. First-Aid Equipment—Carry col orless nail polish with you wherev er you go to stop those rims in their tracks. Use bright red nail polish to identify your stockings with your initials at the tops to avoid con fusion with other nylons in the fam ily. Nail polish is good for the nails, too—in case you forget. Proven Precautions—Wash your new nylons before you wear them and wash after each wearing. One teen tells us a pinch of salt in the first rinsing strengthens the fibres. We only have her word for it. Don’t hang them over the radiator to dry. If your nails and hands are rough, put on a pair of cotton gloves be- for handling your nylons. On the Wing Jones had started country trav eling for a new firm, and depart ed from the city in high spirits. His letters to the firm during the first week were full of hope and promise. There were chances of orders here, there, and every where, but he had not got them yet. He told the m anager in each letter that the promises were feathers in his cap. Eventually he ran short of money and wired for some to pay his fare home. He received the reply: “In each letter you say you have earned another feather. String them together and fly home.” Preparation Farm er Jones—Well, I guess my son is going to be a farm er after all. Farm er Brown—What makes you think so? Farm er Jones—Well, he’s tak ing fencing lessons at college. Dis-Appointment “I have come to make an ap pointment with the dentist,” said a reluctant caller. “He is out just now,” answered the nurse. “Fine!” exclaimed the caller, "And when do you expect Iiim to be out of his office again?” Happened in Heaven The golf m atch to end all golf matches was played up in heaven by St. Paul. St. Peter had the honor on the first tee and prompt ly made a hole in one. St. Paul, undaunted, repeated the perform ance. St. Peter m arked the scores down dutifully on his card, then remarked, “What do you say, Paul? Let’s cut out the m iracles and get down to business.” Self-Control Mrs. Fiery was born with a tem per like gunpowder. “Tell me, dear,” said her hus band, after one of her outbursts, “how it was I never discovered this unhappy weakness of yours during our courtship days?

That is the opinion of Emil Sella, curator of botany exhibits at the Chicago N atural History mu seum. Sella, who rates his study of four leaf clovers as more of a hobby than a scientific project, also has collected five-leaf clovers. He suggests that excessive heat m ay help explain the extra leaves of some clover plants. In some cases he found the four - leaf clovers near a cement walk where heat was reflected from the ce< ment.

Truman spoke those words to the nation's voters on the night before election. And he believed hard enough to get him* self re-elected to another term in the White House. Perhaps he made a wish on a star, too; but in the end it was his own dogged, courageous fight that won him what amounted to a man date to serve. His 371 speeches and 31,500 miles of campaign travel, his will to win, his unflagging con viction that he would win and finally the justification by the people of his confidence made Mr. Truman’s re-election a truly amazing political phenomenon. He is President today despite the political experts, despite the public opinion polls, despite the lethargy and lack of support within his own Democratic party and despite all the logic that was advanced to show that a Republican administration was needed for the good of the na tion. Dpset the Dope. What happened? How did Harry Truman manage to upset the dope? Following the initial shock of sheer iiation-wide disbelief that he could have made it, it became apparent that there was not one but a com bination of several factors operating unobtrusively in the President’s favor. The surprisingly heavy vote was a vital point. It has been axiomatic for a long time in the U. S. that as the number of voters increases so do the chances of the Democratic party. High prices, high rents, the hous ing shortage—all of which Mr. Tru m an emphasized strongly In connec tion with his assaults on the “sec ond worst” 80th congress—aided in turning the people away from a Re publican administration. Organized labor concentrated on getting its members out to vote against members of congress who had supported the Taft-Hartley law, and that circumstance redounded to the President’s benefit. The fact that virtually no one real ized—with the possible exception of Mr. Truman and a few of his loyal subordinates—was that the tide of the campaign had turned in the last two weeks before the election. Last Lap Drive. Mr. Truman’s slugging, earthy drive during the last three weeks before November 2, and converse ly, Dewey’s insistence upon main taining the bland, high-level tone to his campaign brought the President a lot of votes. Finally, the farm states did not come in nearly as strongly Republican as they had been expected to. Mr. Traman had succeeded in planting a fear, in his Midwest campaigning, that the GOP would do away with farm support prices. Thus, at 11:30 a. m. (EST) on November 3, Gov. Thomas E. Dewey conceded the election to President Truman, shortly after the pivotal states of Ohio, Illinois and California had definitely gone Democratic. What can the nation expect from the next four years of Democratic government under President Tru man? F o reip Policy Stays. U. S. foreign policy will remain basically unchanged, keeping as its mainspring the European Recovery Program. As a m atter of fact, it would have retained its status quo under a Republican administration, too. But in any event it is reason able to assume that most American voters cast their ballots not so much on the basis of foreign policy as on domestic issues. Whether or not much, if anything, will be done about the Taft-Hartley act is more of a question than it seems. In the first place, although the Democrats have a nominal major- The Splinter Parties Neither Henry Wallace’s Pro gressives nor J. Strom Thur mond’s Dixiecrats turned up with a decisive effect on the election. The total impact on the national electorate of Wallace’s “love everybody, including Russia” philosophy was extremely small. He polled only slightly more than a million votes, made no greatinroads in any state. H i i i i m M n i l H e s w i t n A l . r e l l s i n f i l l ( U f M I f f states.

Also, some -Dem yratic con gressmen are not convinced that the Taft-Hartley law is as black a thing as it has been painted. One of the first demands that President Truman and the Demo cratic 81st congress will get from the people will be to do something about high prices and inflation. Action along this line probably will take the form of price controls— perhaps wage controls as well. Mr. Truman is likely to try again to get congress to pass the 10-point anti inflation legislation he first eluci dated a year ago.

In the final compilation, President Truman garnered a total of 304 elec toral votes, 38 more than the 266 which were necessary for him to be elected. Governor Dewey collected 189 electoral votes and J. Strom Thur mond drew the Dixiecrats votes of Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi and Soutii Carolina which totaled 38.

Dewey has seen happier days but President Trum an hasn’t. W F O k The Bernadotte Plan T'NSIDE story of the origin of the 1 Bernadotte plan now has leaked out. The Bernadotte plan was devel oped at a highly secret meeting on the island of Rhodes just before Bemadotte was killed. Present were only four people—Sir John Trout- beck, British ambassador to Egypt; Robert McClintock, U. S. state de partment official; Count Bernadotte and Dr. Ralph Bunche, Bernadotte’s deputy. The British ambassador bluntly announced he had instructions from Foreign Minister Bevin not to sup port any plan unless it provided for handing over the potentially wealthy Negev area to the Arabs. Previously, the United Nations had awarded the Negev to Israel, and largely because of this, State Department Representative Mc- Clintock refused to accept the Bevin proposal. McClintock de scribed it as similar to the Grady- Morrisson plan for the partition of the Holy Land which the United States had flatly rejected. Coldly, Sir John Troutbeck replied that there would be no agreement on Palestine unless the Arabs got the Negev. Result of this basic dis agreement was that Bernadotte and Bunche had to mediate not between the Jews and the Arabs, but rather between the Americans and the British. Finally, McClintock agreed to cable Washington the text of th# British proposals. Significantly the Bernadotte plan never was discussed by the mediators with either the Israeli government or the Arabs. It came directly from Bevin as the British price for the acceptance of any plan for settlement in the Holy Land. When McClintock got word back from Washington that the state de partment favored Bevin’s proposal regarding the Negev, he was amazed. However, that’s how the so. called Bernadotte plan was born. * * * Economic Forecast Crystal-balling is a favorite in door sport in Washington, not only with newspaper columnists, but with government economists. How ever, while a columnist must pub licly climb out on a limb when he predicts the future, economists fre quently can keep their forecasts secret. Right now, super-prediction on the nation’s economic outlook for the next six years is reposing in a top- secret file at the agriculture depart ment. Prepared by the bureau of agricultural economics, the forecast deals chiefly with the years 1950 through 1954. Based on the assump tion there will be no war, here’s the gist of the economic forecast. DEPRESSION—There will be no major depression in the next six years and no runaway inflation. NATIONAL INCOME—Barring an unforeseen sharp decline in employ ment during the 1950-’54 period, money available for consumer spending may average as high as in 1948, with purchasing power 10 per cent - greater, due to lower prices. Net farm income may drop 15 per cent, however, due to lower prices and continued high produc tion costs. PRICES—A drop in consumer prices will average 10 per cent from 1948 on, during the five-year period, but the retail price level still will be more than 50 per cent above pre war years. If unemployment (now about 1,900,000) reaches 9,000,000 at any stage, retail prices may drop 20 per cent below the 1948 level. EMPLOYMENT—Unemployment could reach 9,000,000 but is not likely to go over 6,000,000. However, full employment (60,000,000) is a “distinct possibility” during some and perhaps all years from 1950- ’54. If productivity per worker con tinues at its present rate, total na tional production by 1952 will be 8 per cent greater than 1948. * * * Red Tape Over A ir Veterans going into the air-freight business are still snarled in red tape, can’t get government certifica tion from the civil aeronautics board. In formal hearings, tha board has been lined up almost solidly behind the big airlines whichare opposing the veterans. O n e C A B m e m b e r , H a ro ld A .

NOTE—The air force has an nounced the urgent need for building up an air-cargo fleet. Yet usually astute Seth Richardson, counsel for Northwest airlines, testified: “This whole proceeding is inopportune. There may be need for an air freight industry five or 10 years from now, but not now.” ‘WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS' P re s id e n t T rum an A sto u n d s Nation By W inning E le c tio n O v e r D e w e y ; S e n a te , H o u se G o D e m o c ra tic , T o o Personalities Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New York must have been the most tor mented man in the nation for a few days after November 2. AT 46, an age when most men in politics are only beginning their climb to the'top, he had sat for a few weeks on an imaginary pin nacle — created by himself, with yeoman help from the pollsters— only to feel it dissolve under him when the votes were counted. Dewey was through, a man to be pitied. Never again would he find- the ambition or the chance to be president of the United States. BUT FOR President Truman these were days of such happiness and triumph as few men savor in a lifetim e.' He had pummeled his way through the allotted number of rounds in the campaign almost sin- gle-handedly. He had fought Dewey and the Republicans. He had fought the apathy of his own party. He had fought for and won over to his side a majority of the United States voters. Harry S. Truman was the man of the year. W H A T N O W ? Program Now that it is going to be Presi dent Truman again for the next four years, what can the nation ex pect of him to do along legislative lines? His program will probably be elucidated in two phases, his annual message to be delivered to the Jan uary 3 opening of congress and his inaugural address oil January 20. In the meantime, if his campaign speeches are taken as being rea sonably reliable, Mr. Truman has committed himself to a program involving these principal issues: PRICES: “I’m still in favor of ac tion to hold down the cost of liv ing.” He wants price control laws, the President indicated. LABOR: "The Taft-Hartley law is the opening gun in the Republican onslaught against the rights of the working man. It should be re pealed.” He also is expected to ask for the raising of the minimum wage from 40 to 75 cents an hour. COMMUNISTS: “We are on guard against them.” CIVIL RIGHTS: “We cannot be sat isfied until all our people have equal opportunity for jobs, homes, edu cation, health and for political ex pression,” AGEICULTBBE: “M martetsfor farm proclucls ... a fldfif IlW farm income . , , increased farm in c o m e th ro u g h c o o p e ra tiv e s , m a r* k e t d e v e lo p m e n t a n d r e s e a r c h .” SOCIAL SECURITY: ‘ ‘A compre- hensive insurance system to protect THAT’S ALL, BROTHER — — —— — B y B ill S c h o e n tg e n 1 W N U S ta ff W r i t e r - (EDITOR’S NOTE: When opinions are expressed in these columns, they are those of W estern Newspaper Union's news analysts and not necessarily of this newspaper.? E L E C T IO N : Ghost Walked The night of November 2-3 was supposed to have been a wake for the defunct Democratic party but the corpse wouldn’t lie still. It not only sat up but went around slap ping the premature mourliers on the back. IN THE FACE of the supposedly cut-and-dried nature of the cam paign between President Truman and Governor Dewey the results of the election were fantastic. Every body had been wrong—from the sec- ond-guessers on every street cor ner to the “infallible” pollsters of public opinion. It was Truman all the way— from the first early returns which indicated the trend until the great, pivotal states of Ohio, Illinois and California swung over into the Dem ocrats’ camp, crushed Dewey and forced him to concede. MR. TRUMAN’S two million-plus plurality which gave him 304 elec toral votes (to Dewey’s 189) was nothing less than a popular direc tive to serve. Thus, for the first time since he entered the White House, President Truman was able to feel that he had full, untrammeled control of the administration. MORE THAN that, the President was enormously elated about the fact that the Democrats had gained control of both houses of congress. How justifiable that elation will turn out to be, however, is a question for time to answer. “We have a congress now, and I’m sure we’ll make some progress in the next four years,” he said. Yet, full cooperation between a U. S. president and his congress, even when they are aligned politi cally, is, if not quite a rarity, at least unusual. TH E VANQUISHED Called the -wrong tune all our people.” Probably he will recommend expansion of the law to cover self - employed domestics, farm workers and others not Iiow included. ATOMIC ENERGY: “Civilian con trol under government management should be retained.” HOUSING: “The Taft - Ellender- Wagner bill passed the senate and should have passed the house.” TAXES: “The tax reduction (passed over his veto) is inequitable as well as untimely. Some readjustm ent is required to afford relief to families who are suffering. But total re ceipts should not be reduced.” C O N G R ESS: Demo Gains Although they had needed a net gain of only four senate and 31 house seats for control of the 81st congress, the Democratic party did much better than that. By the time Dewey conceded the election, the Democratic party was assured of at least 18 senators against five for the Republicans and 188 representatives against 86 for the Republicans. Forty-nine votes are necessary for senate control. The Democrats now have 54. Democrats have clinched ,at least 263 house seats. Only 218 are necessary for control. Republican senators seeking re- election were defeated by Demo crats in West Virginia, Kentucky, Oklahoma, Wyoming, Minnesota, Iowa, and Illinois. In other con tests where Democrats were seek ing re-election they won. Colorado’s Democratic Senator Johnson was a winner in his re- election campaign. In Oklahoma, where a Republican seat was at issue, former Gov. Robert Kerr, Democrat, won. Republican Senator Revercombe was defeated in West Virginia by Democratic Governor Neely. Hubert Humphrey, Democratic mayor of Minneapolis, won his bid for Re publican Sen. Joseph H. Ball’s job. In Illinois, !Democratic Senate Can didate Paul Douglas defeated Re publican Sen. C. WayIand Brooks by more than 100,000 votes. G U A M ): Expansion Soon after the 81st congress con venes on. January 3 it will be re quested to boost the authorized strength of the national guard by 100,000 men and put all its units on a ready-for-war basis. And the way things look now, it appears that congress will agree to that request. Guard officials said they would ask that the authorized strength be increased from the present 341,000 to 441,000. This, of course, would require , special appropriations for armories and equipment. These officials in Washington said they also'will ask that all 27 divi sions of the national guard be in cluded in the army’s stepped-up defense program.The army so far has selected otaly six of the 27 divisions for its “mobilization day” force, the out fit that would be ready to strike k H rc t if IB iA flira tiite attacked.

Thomas E. Dewey had made his decision: He would not consid er running for the presidency a third time. At a post-election press confer ence the first question fired at Dewey was, “What happened?” “I was just as surprised as you are and I gather that that is shared by everyone in this room,” said he. Dewey maintained that there had been no error in . strategy in the conduct of his campaign. He added that he had talked the situation over with his running mate, Gov. Earl Warren, and that they had agreed they had waged a “clean and constructive campaign.” “We have no regret in the world,” the defeated candidate said.

Eiectricity Assures Water for Livestock E co n o m ica l In s ta lla tio n F o r W in te r S u g g e s te d Electricity, which has eased the farm er’s chores, has come to the aid of farm animals, too. Through the medium of electric ity, Dobbin and Bossy no longer need fear that their drinking water supply will be shut off during the cold winter months. Tests by agricultural engineers have demonstrated that electricity is economical to provide warm wa ter for livestock during the winter. Watering devices were operated at a cost as low as 70 kilowatt hours per month, representing an outlay of $1.40 at two cents per kilowatt. Some farm ers are finding that their installations are expensive to operate, principally because of lack This horse can laugh at Old Man Winter as a result of this floating water heater, an electrical de-icer which assures farm animals a ' drink despite the cold. of insulation or because too much water is heated.- The following suggestion will help to make an ideal installation: I Use as small a tank as possible, * definitely not more than 150 gallons. 2 Install a float so the size of the • tank can be reduced. Commer cial units now on the m arket use only a drinking cup. 3 Use at least three or four inches • of commercial insulation and cover all sides, leaving room for only one or two animals to drink. 4 Install a baffle board to prevent • air movement over the water under the insulated top. Use of electricity makes it safe to install the tank inside the bam or in a shed, which will encourage livestock to drink more water and thus increase milk and m eat pro. duction. Farmer Falls Hardest Life on the farm is far more haz ardous for the farm er and his sons than it is for his wife and his daugh ters. In fact, a survey covering 15,000 farm s the country over, made by the department of agriculture, re veals that about four tim es as many accidents happened to men and boys between the ages of 14 and 65 as were suffered by farm women and >irls. Of the youngsters under 14 injured, nearly 65 per cent were boys. More farm people were injured by falls than any other type of ac cident, with the m ajority of mishaps involving falling on steps and stair and from vehicles. Men and boys were victims of twice as many in juries from falls as were women and girls. Of the total number of farm ac cidents, 56 per cent were connected with farm work and 8 per cent with housework. The age period from 25 to 45 was disclosed as the most dangerous. H o rse s N e e d A tte n tio n D u rin g S ta b le d P e rio d Disease and injury that some times prove crippling can be pre vented by giving special attention to horses’ feet during the stabled period. Brittle hoofs, spongy hoofs, thrush and foot canker are the four diseases commonly caused by bad stable conditions. Clean, dry floors are recommend ed as a precaution. The feet of stabled animals also should be trimmed at least once a month. THE DAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE, N. C.

God's Story-Teller Lesson for November 28, 1948 r l Dr. Foreman MfT tRUTH in a tale,” it is said, “will enter in at lowly doors.” The greatest truth of the entire Bible does not come to us in the shape of an essay but of a story—the story of Jesus. “The gospel did not appear on the editorial page but on the news pages.” Many people can understand essays; millions more can understand a story. Jesus himself, when he gave the world his message, used stories to do it. We are told that he never made a talk to the people without using a parable. The parables of the Bible are simple stories, often no more than a sentence long. They are all alike in this: Whatever the story may be, there is more in it than meets the eye. Parables were not a form of entertainment; they were a way of teaching. . . . No Cause Is Lost COMETIMES the teller of a para- ble would explain what he meant, as Isaiah does with his little song of the vineyard. Sometimes, and most often in Jesus’ case, the meaning is so plain that only a very stupid person could miss it. r Matthew arranges several of Jesus’ parables in pairs; one of these is the twin story of the mus tard seed and the yeast in the meal (Matt. 13:31-33). Both mean the same thing, and both are so obvious that Jesus did not think it neces sary to explain them. The Kingdom of Heaven—the ideal world, the world as God intends it to be — is a living thing, a growing thing, some thing at first small, almost in visible. But it will grow: you eannot stop it. So the ideal world, the Kingdom of Heaven, (Jesus hints) is not an artificial thing, it cannot be con structed by blueprints. It has to follow the course of living things. It does not come all of a sudden, it grows very quietly. You might not see the seed in the ground, but the farm er knows it is there.- * • * Pearl of Great Price COMETIMES two or three of Jesus’ parables are like a musical theme with variations. The twin stories of the pearl worth more than the jeweler’s whole collection, and of the treasure hidden in the field, are very much alike, yet just a little different in meaning. Both tell us that the Kingdom of God is more valuable than any thing else on earth; indeed, it in cludes everything else of value. But the stories are different. One tells of a man who was looking for something, the other tells of a man who was surprised by finding some thing. Onee a Chinese gentleman be came dissatisfied with his in herited Confucianism, and set out to find a better religion. For years he shopped around, never finding what he needed. He left Christianity to the last, for in his-section of China only coolies and peasants were Chris tians. But when he began to make friends with some real Christians, he was overjoyed. This was what be had been looking for. This was the pearl of great price. On the other hand, a drunken sailor, certainly not looking for re ligion, wandered one night into a Salvation Army meeting. They could do nothing with him, but be fore they dragged him off to the lodging-house one of them slipped a bit of paper into his pocket. The next morning, cold sober, wonder ing where he was, he put his hand into that pocket and pulled the paper out. On it were penciled three words: God loves you. It hit him right between the eyes; and he became a Christian. That was the “treasure hid in the field.”* • M How Far Will Love Go? TESUS’ contemporaries told para- “ bles too, but they have all been forgotten. Jesus’ parables are in comparable, u n fo rg e tta b le , im m ortal. If Jesus had been known for nothing else, he would have been remembered for the four stories of the Good Samaritan, the Lost Sheep, the Lost Coin, the Lost Son. These all have much the same point. “Lost” does not mean hopelessly doomed. How many persons we give up as hope less! But God never gives up any one. A “lost” person is one whom God is seeking.

We are benefited by this freedom every day. The infor mation that helps make intelligent citizens comes to us freely. Our press is not curbed nor restricted by the ill-conceived notions of some tyrant or dictator. We can buy the public prints we choose, and at a very reasonable price. We can buy many of them, including those with opposing points of view, without tak ing very much change out of pocket. An Independent Press Why the small price of newspa pers and magazines? Just the paper and printing costs would amount to as much as we pay for them! Does a fearsome dictator pay the dif ference? Does a tax-rich bureaucra cy foot the bill just to keep itseif in power? Are our public “prints” subsidized by Congressional appro priations? No, they are not. Then how do we have freedom of press, when we are abie to buy for a nickel what costs so much more? These things are accomplished through advertising. Advertising thus becomes one of the basic fea tures of American democracy. It is easy to see that the advertising space sold by the publishers of our newspapers and magazines makes it possible for a publishing etiterprise to pay its bills. Because of adver tising, our great press is able to re main independent, and at the same time render important service to the American people. Educating Masses Advertising itself performs the major service of increasing con stantly the already high standard of living which' America enjoys. Our industry depends upon advertising to do its share in the efficient dis tribution of all the things that it makes in meeting the needs and de sires of the people. And whenever something new is developed, adver tising carries the message to those who may want the new product or new service. Not only does advertising sell goods, it also sells the desire to im prove. Americans have never want ed to become static. When people have no desire for better living standards, then your great output of factories will have to stop. Ad vertising creates the desire to buy that keeps our economy on the move. It sells goods, and in selling them it is the great educator of th e, masses. Sneak Attacks These facts show us that the busi ness of advertising has an impor tant bearing upon our freedom of press. If we cherish freedom of the press, we must also respect our pub lications as business enterprises. We need to understand that expenses Of gathering news from all over the world for American readers are paid in large part by revenues from advertising space. I say these things because there are those who attack the American Way by the sneak method. These destroyers (from within and with out) will not attack freedom ,of the press. They know we cherish it. But they will attack advertising. They will not attack our high standards of living, which they envy. But they will attack the profit idea, without which American initiative and en terprise would cease to give us jobs and goods. May we ever be on our guard against those who would knock out the very props from under America! Uncle Sam Says F INSURE YOUR FUTURE WITH MY ^savingsbond PLAN NOTICE I'VE CHANGED TO CAMELS.

Some 21 species of edible seaweeds are found around the small islands north of Liuon and also along the coastal region of northern Luzon. The Ilo- canos from this region make the greatest use of seaweeds in Hawaii. They do not relish all of those liked by Hie Hawaiians. They like neither Iimu nor koku, considered by most Hawaiians to be the finest and most delectable of all. The seaweeds are gathered direct from the rocks on which they grow and, at certain times of the year when the waves break them from their holdfasts and wash them near the shore, they are gathered in great quantities in the shallow water. The . carbohydrates of algae are not utilized by man as food but give bulk to the intestinal contents and thus stimulate the nor ma] movements of the digestive tract. Vfe Are Now Prepared To Buy and Gin Your COTTON In Our Modem New Cotton Gin Foster's Cotton Gin Form Hospital Districts Hospital districts similar to school districts are being established in California in counties of less than 200,000 population. The districts need not stay within county lines but may include areas contiguous to centers selected for the building of hospitals to be included in the gen eral county tax rate at not more than 20 cents per 100 dollars assessed valuation. Already 17 such districts have been started. Some are plan ning to issue bonds for hospital con struction to be serviced out of hospi tal revenues or taxes should sub sidies be necessary. The statewide hospital survey being conducted by the California department of health is cooperating in an advisory capac ity when requested and it is expect ed that many rural communities will be able to bring hospital facilities in line with their needs under this pro gram. Fluoride for Dental Carles Accumulated evidence to date suggests three methods of caries control by use of fluorides, accord ing to Francis A. Arnold Jr., Na tional Institute of Health. First, in creasing the fluoride concentration of public water supplies to an opti mum level, I ppm. F. Second, by topical application of more concen trated fluoride solutions. Third, by increasing fluoride ingestion through daily dietary supplements. The first method, fiuorination of water sup plies, now is being subjected to ex perimental verification in numerous communities. Topical application of fluorides has sufficient clinical evi dence at the present time to recom mend its judicious use by the dental profession. There is no direct scien tific evidence with which to evaluate the use of tablets containing fluoride as dietary supplements for caries control.
