WASHINGTON, Jan. II CUP)
Returned veterans, who have

line for an education.
The Veterans Administration
said today that Al per cent of its

VA added, is that some schools
are closing their doors to any
more new students.
Meantime. the agency said,
smaller liberal arts colleges re-
port they have ample facilities
for thousands of additional en-
trants.
VA surveyed conditions in 1900
colleges with a total enrolment
of $4,000, including more than
100000 veterans studying under

BY MRS. EDWIN G. sCHARY

THROUGH not nearly as widely
Il known as the Panama par
rotS. both the scarlet macaw
and royal blue and gold macaw
make very fine house pets. They
are more trustworthy, gentle
and understanding than the
Panama parrots. OF these two
types of macaws, the blue and
gold Is the more intelligent and
the better talker. though the
scarlet macaw is larger and
perhaps, some would say, more
exotic in coloring.
My macaw is tame and gen.
tle to a degree. He rides in
the car and particularly likes
to greet passing pedestrians
with a hello, there" He eats
practically anything as a tidbit,
though his main diet, of course,
is Sunfower seed. This bird is
about 35 years old and in per-
feet plumage; these macaws,
as a rule. outlive humans.
on sunny days he is placed
in a large cage in the garden
and promptly starts calling all
the neighborS by their first
names such as, Ethyl, Ar
thur, Clarence" etc.
LIS habit of eating seed is TO
H fill that huge lower bill of
his. then proceed to crack each
one separately at his leisure.
Very often if | hand him some
tidbit which he particularly
likes when he happens to have
his bill full Of sunflower seed,
he will blow all the seed out
like bullets from a machine gun.
Most people not familiar with
this tyne of bird, when seeing
the size of his bill, come TO the
conclusion that such birds are
very dangerous TO have around;
but after years of experience
with all sizes of hooked-bill
birds, ! have discovered that.
the larger they are, the more
intelligent and docile they are.
They quickly understand
what is right and what is
wrong They may try to scare
YOU with their huge bill but
will seldom bite if properly
treated. Those not knowing a
great deal about large birds
would be surprised at their in
nate good manners and be-
havior. They are not more care
than the average parrot and
certainly pay their way in the
constant entertainment they
provide.

SOCIAL AND POLITICAL
AWAKENING.


Several weeks have gone by
since Ypsilanti rejected It charter
and the world still moves on. The
most interesting thing about the
election was that there were 1859
votes cast out OF about 1000 regis
tered voters. Probably the re-
naming 4.431 citizens considered
themselves neutral. What is neu-
tralityf
Neutrality is a state OF mind; an
apathetic attitude that pitches its
tent in the middle OF the highway
leading TO progress. When asked to
help with the heavy burdens OF the
people, who have mired In the

for instance. spent 4 lot OF time
In France recently and there 10 no
manner OF doubt that she Is In
need OF foodstuffs from abroad.
There's widespread undernourish-
ment because the legitimate stores
lack stocks with which to honor
the food ration coupons held by
the little man and his family.
However. as we send our food
ships to La Belle France-and we
shall do II gladly-we have every
right to note that, while her legi-
innate markets are short OF stocks,
black-markets are booming In every
part OF the country. AS q matter
OF fact. France Is one vast black
market. Even school children are
acting as agents on a large scale.
/ give you my word. the situa.
ton Is staggering. The unhappy
housewife starts out with her shop

She stands for hours In a long
queue and when she finally reaches
the counter OF the shop II probably
is as bare as old Mother Hubbard's
cupboard. But during her painful
progress she has to run q gaunt-
let OF black-marketeers.
Obviously these black.market
operations can't be wiped out over
night, but they certainly could be
dealt a heavy blow II the auth
critics would go all-out against
them. That would mean the salv-
aging OF lot of food TO be used
in legitimate channels. We are en-
titled to expect that governments

Eens whN are that government. The
change must come with the indi.
yidual citizen frst, then manifest
itself through their activity into
better government.
When Calvin Coolidge was presi-
dent OF this nation he told his CO.
workers that the only thing that
can save the world from chaos
is a spiritual awakening. We
have now crossed the border into
chaos, locally, nationally and In
ternationally. Do we need to
awaken?
For example: individual citizens
we're asleep so our officials at
Washington were asleep. Because
they were asleep our Army and
Navy were asleep. Because they
were asleep the Japs sank our bat.

our men at Pearl Harbor. Because
we had no beet TO protect them

the tortures of hell in the tropical
jungles while the Japs used the

ously furnished them, to push their

The United States has rarely
been adroit, competent or effective
in intervening in the internal af-
fairs OF other countries. We have
produced no Richelieus nor Talley-
rands, although many have aspired
TO their roles. Americans lack the
instinct for intrigue. In the first
place, they talk too much; and sec
ondly, they love too adoringly the
glare OF newspaper publicity.

an election there such as We help

SO when Mr.. Braden went up and
down the United States making
campaign speeches in the recent
Argentine election. he had as much
effect on the voters as Gromyko,
Soviet Russia's spokesman at UN,
would have upon Kansas, II he told
the worthy citizens Of that state
whom 70 elect as governor. The
people OF the Argentine acted ac-
cordingly and kicked Mr.. Braden
In the pants. Unfortunately. II
worked out that Mr.. Braden sits
comfortably while Uncle Sam rubs
sore spot. Apparently. the more
brilliant the American diplomat,
the greater Uncle Sans hurt.
Mr.. Braden once delivered him

one who has dealt with these prob
lens that non-intervention cannot
be negative either in concept or
In practice. II is Affirmative and
positive by the very nature OF
things. since whatever we refrain
from doing and whatever we re-
frain from saying may constitute
Intervention to the same degree as
anything we actually do or say.
We can dishonor our com .nitments
to the cause OF human freedom and
to the principle OF non-interyen-
tion equally by inaction as by &C.
tion. II this were not so, then nom
Intervention would be a means for
defeating the cause OF freedom and
encouraging the growth OF tyranny.
Surely this is not what Is meant
non-intervention! | say we must
be especially sensitive, In view Of
our great power. TO our obligation
Of non-intervention. We must lean
backwards. But we must lean
backwards for the purpose OF avoid
ing Intervention by action and by
insction alike"
II that Is a correct view OF
Americas role. then this country
has become Uncle Buttinsky. For
what Il really means is that weare
TO be petulant barriers OF all peo-
pies, telling them precisely how to
live and what to do and IN what
manner they must do II. For other
wise we shall be guilty OF inter
vention by inaction.
Surely. there are lots OF countries
in the world that are badly run.
Soviet Russia Is Communist; Po-
land is a puppet state; China has
had civil war for a century; Spain
has Franco but France has Thores
and Duclos: surely we do not like
Tito any more than we do Peron.
Where does all this stop? Shall
we set up American monitors In all
countries to order their affairs that
we might, to slave our superior
consciences, avoid intervention by
inaction?
Mr.. Braden ought TO resign. His
policy Of intervention in the affairs
OF a neighbor has proved a costly
and ridiculous failure. The people
Of the Argentine. in a general cleo
ton. by an unmistakable vote, have
shown a preference to Peron over
Braden. They don't like Braden.
He made himself an issue. He
made the United States an issue.
His removal from once would re-
move the issue.
