for food. We could survive on much less than we now have. Judging by warnings from Judge Rosenman and the President, we are going to do so in the interest of sharing with Europe's sufferers.
 We civilians accept that we must make sacrifices; we know that we can't have guns and unrestricted butter. However, many of us feel that the food situation has been permitted to deteriorate much more than has been necessary. We are completely cold to the theory promul- gated by some that, because millions in the world are necessarily underfed, we have no right to protest against being unnecessarily deprived of satisfying diet.
 If we couldn't do our international duty and still eat moderately well we could take it. The handling of our food production and allocation is going from bad to worse so fast that we are not at all sure it is necessary
 One of the most urgent tasks confront ing President Truman and Congress IS to go over the food situation with fine tooth comb, find out what is wrong, and do whatever seems necessary. If 1t ap- pears that more manpoWer is needed on the farnl-or, at least, that we can not do with leSS-it should not be lrn- possible to find a formula for deferring really useful farm help without going as far as the resolution vetoed by the Presl- dent would have gone.

It has been said that the writ ingS and social theories of Karl Marx go back to the writings of the German theologian Friedrich Strauss and his contemporary Lud- wig Feuerbach the German philoS- opher. Strauss Life of Christ, which descended upon his generation like bomb shell because of it's de- structive criticism of the doctrines in which men had long put their trust, had a profound effect on Feuerbach. The philosophy of Feuerbach, who was associated with Hegel. greatly influenced Marx. The rise of socialism. therefore, was definitely connected with that pro- found attack upon Christianity which Strauss and Feuerbach in- Stituted.
 Strauss influenced Feuerbach, and Feuerbach influenced Marx, and Marx has profoundly influenced the world. For better or for worse? Men will judge of that accoding to their religious and political beliefs. But it should always be remembered that socialism grew out of spirited attack on Christianity. The seed which Strauss sowed has sprung into a mighty harvest embracing millions of adherents, chief among which, of course, is Russia.

To Eat or Not to Eat

Up in the New England hills a 21-year old 4-F has been working day and night, with the assistance of one hired man, caring for more than a hundred dairy COWS. Besides feeding, milking and gen. orally caring for the cattle, the two men raise most of the feed for them, plus some miscellaneous crops.
 The other day the hired man was put into IA and notified to expect an early call. The young farmer was bitter.
 ''They say they need food" he said, "but do they? Do they think l can do all this work alone? The day they take John, I shall offer my milk COWS for sale. The grass, and any crops already in, I'll blow under in the fall to keep the soil from running down. You can't raise food without manpower."
 President Truman had convincing arguments for vetoing the resolution that would have given farm workers an absolute deferment independent of other consideration. The proposal was un- sound and undemocratic
 But-you can't raise food without manpower. It's easy for city dwellers who never saw COW or a pig or field of corn to forget that unless there are farmers to farm, tenement dwellers can't eat. This country is not in or approach ing any famine condition like that in ya1ch of Europe. We haven't suffered

Disposing of the Mikado

Mussolini's death and the reported death of Hitler have redoubled the de- mands of the Chinese press that Hiro- hito be executed. He should be killed. His war guilt is beyond question. And through his half-deified status and the sanctity of his person, he holds power over his people that makes even his con doning of this war wholly indefensible.
 But Hirohito's guilt does not, it seems to us warrant our attempts to kill him by bombing as some have urged. Be- cause he is considered god-like by his people, his death by American bombing would call forth retaliations against any American who fell into Jap hands that would surpass the unspeakable cruelty that some captured Americans have al- ready suffered.
 The time for Hirohito's trial and execu- ton is after the war. And his delivery into our hands should be prime condi- tion of any surrender terms.

things the Russians want cut of this conference is that they will not be outvotcd. That is the reason for the veto power, by whicl oae big nation by voting "nc can stop action against an agsresso- nation.
 The smaller nations want 10 change this voting balance favor- ing Russia and the bis nations, And from the point of vlew of keeping the peace, it should be changed. For big nations, not little ones, make war.
 However, Molotov, by shrewd- ly outsmarting Stettin;us 2nd staging the Argentine debate, has shown the world that Rus sia would always be outvOted by 21 American republics. If Stettinius had been adroit enough to have delayed Ar gentina-s admission, he would have robbed Molotov of his most powerful ammunition.

QUESTIONS and ANSWERS Never Tolerate q Mole

An MD told me never to have g. mole removed. as nature is throw ing off something and if the mole is removed it might come out in- side. I have a mole on the hair line and 1t worries me.
 (Mrs. NJ. 5. L.. Answer-If you quote the MD correctly, which I doubt, he must be a quaint character. Some moles are harmless and, if they do not embarrass you it is all right to tolerate them. But as a rule. l be- lieve, it is better to have moles remoTed-of course by a qualified physician or surgeon. Especially 1T the mole becomes irritated or in any way troublesome. That notion of nature throwing off something is tco absurd to mention.
 Iced Tea
 I can't seem to convince my family that sugar does not dissolve in iced tea. Please help me prove it to them. Miss M. P. Answer-Sugar dissolves in iced tea, although more slowly than in
 
 hot tea.

 Yoe said there is never empty space in the stomach. Then how do you explain the uncomfortable feel ing called hunger? tE. e.
 Contractions of stomach probably account for the uncom- fortable "pangs" of hunger.
 Sneeze or Cough Not Necessary I am convinced from my own ex- perience that your teachings are right. I believe neither cold, wet nor exposure gives one any illness, but some one sneezing or cough ing his germs at you can lay you low, whether you are warm or

WHAT! NO BEER?

A distinguished physician who is a authority on alcoholism complains to this effect!
 We are vastly interested in fne problems of alcohol nave a painfully large amount or mail from people who want ir1-- formation on the subject. Your column is of course widely and faithfully read. In face, l am one of your most earnest tol- lowers and I think you are dolng a grand job.
 But I do get little sour when I have 50 or 60 letters from your faithful" saying in effect "Dr. Brady writes that quart of peer a day is heavy drinking. Is this true? My husband-I-my pro- ther, etc."
 have to sit down and write DO or 60 or more letters and say III effect: While l am myself a great admirer of Dr. Brady's column. this is one time that l cannot agree with him." Then I have to go on for page or more to explain why I do not agree. Usually the letters that l write bring replies, and these replies need replies, etc., etc.
 Now, as a matter of fact the particular husband that you wrote about gave an absurd allbl for his drinking: that being satu- rated with alcohol keeps cold and other germs away. Why not at- tack that phase of the problem Tn the first place quart o1 beer a day would not keep any one saturated with alcohol /. From long experience with husbands such as your reader described I should say his quart of beer a day" is an alibi. If he is getting i'll effects from al cohol he is drinking something harder than beer A good many alcoholics put away half pint or more of whisky on the side, and drink their beer in public. Beer gets the blame.
 I should have in my file the printed copy of the item to which my distinguished colleague refers but I can't find it. As I recollect it, the wife was worried because hel husband ate no breakfast but drank a large amount of beer instead and went off to his days work or that sustenance alone. I believe any one who regularly uses beer, ale wine, whisky or any other alcoholic beverage or liquor as a substitute for food must inevitably develop nutritional deficiency disease. Sucf as beri beri, whether the manifesto tions of the disease are correctly diagnosed or not and I contenc that any one with such nutritiona deficiency disease suffers from de generation

A JUST APPEAL
(BoSton PoSt)

tBOSUOll fOSlJ
 Cape Cod grocers and butchers are more than justified in their appeal to the War Food AdmlniS- tration for a sufficient supply of food to meet the demands of the summer population all along the Cape. The government wants folks to take a vacation in order that they may better prepare themselves for the lonfi, hard months ahead and the all-out effort to defeat Japan. But federal officials, par ticularly those in direct charge of transportation, want as little travel as possible.
 The great majority of summer residents on the Cape are not daily transients. They go there for at least a week, many for the entire summer, and the only travelling they do is from their homes and back again. They are not wasting gasoline by touring. Because Of this, it seems the Cape Cod mer- chants should get some recognition from the VITA and guarantee that there will at least be enough food on hand to care for all.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1945-05-12

There seems to be a difference of opinion among experts whether non- essential civilians can expect to get more gasoline now that VIE Day has come and gone Petroleum Administrator Ickes hope" for 50 per cent increase is con- trary to the expectations of many in- formed insiders. Technical considera- tions may free some surplus temporarily or permanently for civilian use. Border line non- n-essentials may benefit by greater leniency in judging essentiality. But if you are genuine A-carder, don't get over-optin1istic. You might be disap- pointed.

SWEET CORN CAUTIONS
(New Haven Journal-Cour


 Sweet corn is not one of the crops recommended for small Vic- tory gardens, according to the U. S. Department of Agriculture. It does not supply as much food to the square yard as some other crops. Pollination makes trouble in small plantings and sweet corn yields more reliably in blocks than in single and double rows. For farm gardens and large Victory gardens, sweet corn is recommended as a first class crop, with succession plantings ever. two or three weeks, if space permits.
 Crowding the corn is, perhaps, the most frequent fault in small garden soil this may be reduced to 30 inches-or even to "A with some of the new dwarf hybrids. A corn

year there came to the Turkish Embassy in Washington a delega- tion of Molokans from California. They wanted to migrate to Turkey, and the case came to the attention of Commissioner Yalman in New York because it was in the nature of new business"
 Now the Molokans are lovely people, clean and humble people something like the American Quak- CTS. The word Molokan means a drinker of milk. They eat no pork. Molokans are pacifists.
 Originally they came from what used to be southern Russia, though their homelands are now in Turkey on the Russian border. Over the centuries they had built up their own customs and culture in which the desire for peace was always a dominant influence.
 
 Having grown tired of the con- tinual warning and massacres on the Turkish Russian border, some oA eAAS JOIA1SSA oJ4I 1lO llSoN IlllSI dlCb to America to find peace and here they had prospered. There is a small colony of them in San Francisco, larger communities of several thou sand families in the Fresno and Los Angeles areas. They are good citi- zens. They pay their taxes and they never cause any trouble.
 But in 1889 a group of these Mo- lokans from the Los Angeles colony wanted to return to their home land, and they came to the Turkish Embassy in Washington to see what could be done about it. Their rea- son for wanting to leave America was this:
 One of the prophets of the Molo- kans had dream. In this dream it was revealed to him that the whole world was going to be engulfed in horrible war. The United States was going to be involved in this war, ac- cording to the prophet, and the only country in the world that wouldn't be involved would be Turkey. So the Molokans wanted to go back where they came from to live in peace.
 Well the Turkish Embassy staff and Commissioner Ahmet Emin Yalman thought this was very nice, but a little bit crazy. Nobody be- lleved in dreams of old men who might be homesick. Besides, if there was war, they figured Turkey would be among the first countries to be involved and the United States would be the last. Why didn't the Molokans realize that and stay where they were in peaceful Amer ica?
 So the Molokans came back to California and here they have stay ed. But Ahmet Emin Yalman, now an editor of newspaper in Turkey, never forgot the strange dream of the Molokan prophet, and when Editor Wolman arrived in San Francisco for the United Nations Conference, one of his first requests was to visit the Molokans.
 They arranged a little meeting of the Molokans Mothers Club out at the neighborhood house in San Franciscos Potrero Hill district. Editor Yalman went out with six other members of the Turkish dele gation, and they had a. wonderful time.
 The Molokans' desire to return home, however, is all gone. It was just a dream. They've found peace here.

Rising Nationalism

Why can't the Allies stick together in peace as they have in war? That ques- tion, in various forms, has been asked frequently in the last couple of years, and usually in rhetorical rather than an interrOgatOry sense. But now it's being asked by people who really want to know
 Throughout the world today the unity that has made the United Nations united is beginning to show signs of straln. And nowhere is that strain more evl- dent than at San Francisco, particularly among the three countries who were the major contributors to victory in Europe
 Why cant they stick together in peace as they have in war? They can, but probably not without hard work, hard words, disappointment, compromise, and most of all change of heart.
 One great obstacle is that while the major Allies in Europe were all fighting against the same thing, they were not all fighting for the same thing. Russia was fighting for the political role in eastern Europe that was contingent upon Germany's defeat. In securing that role, she now delays or ignores certain commitments previously made among the Big Three powers.
 Great Britain and the United States have united to oppose Russla,s course. And their opposition is not without po- litical considerations. Britain has pO- litical role in western Europe, as we have in the Western Hemisphere. Britaln's action in Greece and our attitude toward Argentina have been no less arbitrary than Russia's.
 Among the smaller nations there is in- ternal and external disunity. Italy is split over the old question of possessing Trieste. Certain Polish, Yugloslavan and Hungarian groups are turning out reams of venomous writings against Russia, at moment when the Nazi death grip on their countries has scarcely been loosened.
 Everywhere, it seems, a violent, pent-up nationalism is emerging, even at time when progress is undeniably being made toward an international security system. It is all confusing and contradictory
 One reason for the confusion is prob ably that diplomats just can't get over the tradition of old-fashioned diplomacy. It has always been the habit Of allied Hctors to shake hands after victory and say to one another, in effect, Thanks, pal, you were great help. We couldn't have won without you. But now we'll just take ours. And if you don't like it, nuts to you."
 In this country we have rightly decried those who have preached isolationlsm and urged that not one jot of American sovereignty be sacrificed to world league for peace And we have silenced most of them. Now we are running into the same sort of thinking from our Allies who condemned American isolationism so bitterly, and so rightly, when the battle was hard.
 Isolationism and militant nationaliSm aren't going to prevent war in the post war world any more than they did be- fore 1889. That goes for Russian and British isolationism and nationalism, too., Certainly the worlds statesmen know that. Let us pray that they soon come to their senses and proceed with whole hearts and good faith to finish the job begun at San Francisco.

Selected Poem
GENERAL EISENHOWER

Hen Lenox in The New Haven Journal Courier, He stands, a gigantic figure
 Outlined against the sky The man who dared assume the task The Nazis to defy. The world pays homage to him; It bows, in silent awe, To the general, the architect, Of the European war. He drew his plans with accuracy, With foresight, unexceled. Inspiring faith in all his men, Their fears he deftly quelled. No plea could make him falter When he had planned his way; From victory thus to victory He led VIE Day We salute our mighty general Miracle-man of power; To him, as Gods co-pilot,
 We owe this victory hour.

With part of the war won, folks inn mediately start to think of postwar production, such as cars, washing ma- chimes, and new homes. Certainly all these new things will be fine when pro- duction starts. Clair w.
