Of our dear little boy, oLIN L
year, year ago today. May "A. 1916.
A bud that the Great Gardener gave U.s.
A sweet and lovely child
He gave it to our keeping
To cherish for while
Just as the bud was opening
To the glory of the day,
Down came the Heavenly Father
And took our bud away.
We don't have to wonder
Where on earth you are
For We know without DOUBT
You can't be very far.
For no matter where we SO,
Or what on earth We do.
We find our thought are centered,
Centered right on you.

And all the memories OF
That dear little brother of ours.
Some day, sometime. we don't know when

LoVING SISTERS, PAT AND MARGARET.
Deep in our hearts lies a picture
OF loved one laid to rest,
In memory's frame we shall keep IT,
Because he was one OF the pest.
Our hearts still ache with sadness.
Our eyes fill up with tears
only God knows how we miss yoa
At the end Of one long year.
They say time heals broken heart
But. oh. it seem untrue,
For one year now our hearts nave Acneo'
Dear little Oli0, lust for you.
When we think Of you, dear Olin.
And the happy days gone by,
Our hearts still ache with sadness
And tears steal into our eyes.
LOVING GRANDMOTHER AND GRAND

The fairest lilies are first to fall.
The sweetest hrst to faoei
The fondest, dearest, best OF al,
At peaceful rest are laid.
As some sweet blossom droops and dies
When blighted by the frost,
He faded from before our eyes
And all too soon was lost.
But in Gods garden, free from pain,
Where grow His fairest flowers.
We know that We shall meet again,
This fairest bloom of ours.

Life is so empty without you,
And we still love you SO,
But God wanted you in Heaven.

Army
Interim Skeleton

II the United States were challenged
tomorrow, it could not fight a full
scale war before l948.
The interim army"-the force that
exists between wartime and the time
when peace treaties are signed and
postwar army" eVOlVeS--iS Il skelc
ton indeed
Military planners say at least three
months would be needed merely TO
notify, register and start back toward
Army jurisdiction men in the pool of
100000 trained veterans. 1t would
take another six months from the
time first combat divisions were re-
formed until they could be organized
equipped, re-trained and put into ac-
ton.
The only force at all ready is the
regular Army, about 100000. Plans
call for a National Guard of 100000
and the Organized Reserve of 10000
The number Of divisions ready for
immediate use can be counted on the
fingers of one hand, with several fin
gers left over.
The Navy active and ready reserve
fleets are prepared for virtually in
slant duty; the ''mothball fleet" is de-
signed for return to action in 80 TO
60 days
The AAF has the only known fleet
OF super bombers in the world capa-
BILE of delivering the atomic bomb
About 5000 B-29 Superfortresses were
left over from wartime production
Deliveries also have started on the
new B-36, built to carry 10000 pounds
Of bombs 10000 miles.
The currently gloomy picture fol
the Army's ground forces is offset ir
great degree by the status of the All
Forces and Navy

V for Veto

The Security Council, key organiza-
ton of the United Nations, will OBJ
serve its first anniversary in the
United States next Tuesday
The 1l-natlon council is made up
of five permanent members Britain,
France, Russia, China and the U s.
and six rotating memberships as
signed to smaller nations In it any of
the Big Five nations has the right TO
kill by veto any proposition which it
disapproves
From the start the council has
thrived on controversy. Its first crisis
was over Iran when Andrei A.
Gromyko, Soviet delegate, took his
historic walk and remained out for
two weeks.
It's last crisis was over the atom
which the council chose not to push
to the veto stage. Faced with adamant
stands on International control of
atomic energy by the o. S. and the
Soviet Union, it turned the problem
back 10 a special committee in hopes
that body might be able 10 work out
a compromise

MILFORD CHRONICLE MILFORD DELAWARE FRIDAY MARCH 2s 97
MOSCOW: Big Four on a Changing STAGE

CECRETARY of State George
~ C. Marshall is new front
man for American diplomacy in
Moscow, and the Russians are
studying him carefully.
Marshall differs from his pred
ecessors in that he is military man.
AS creator and chief of staff of the
mightiest armed force in American
history, Marshall handled that i'm
mense power with skill and conf
dence His approach to diplomatic
tasks is almost exactly similar
Marshall IS applying American pow
Ell quietly and subtly in world diplo-
matte field just as he once used
military power on the battlefield
Marshall plays his cards close to his
vest with the calm attitude Of man
holding a royal flush.
A Clinical Approach
Vyacheslav NJ Molotov, Soviet for
eign minister, who won a reputation
among his Big Four opposite num-
berS as the imperturbable and emo
tionless diplomat, is across the council
table now from a colleague equally
cool and clinical.
1t is against his military background
that the Russians are trying TO assay
Marshall as a diplomat.
Some Soviet observers, jolted by
the latest turn IN American foreign
policy, profess to believe that mill
tary thinking inspired President Tru-
mans plea to Congress for aid to
Greece and Turkey
Study American Reaction
The Kremln IS studying carefully
Congressional reaction to the PreSi-
dents speech. The big question in
Washington is how far shall this
country go in trying to stop the spread
of Communism. Are Greece and Tur-
key just the start of campaign in
which America will pour out largeSS
to any country in danger of falling
within the Soviet sphere of influence?
Russian counter-policy to Truman S
new policy still is being formulated,
Premier Stain is holding nightly con-
ferences in the Kremlin long after the
four-power sessions have closed.
Against this backdrop of impend-
ing major developments, quite apart
from the council itself, Mootov

Japan
Ready for Treosy


Gen Douglas Macarthur says its
about time for formal peace treaty
with Japan so that military occupa-
ton may be ended and further guild
ance Of Japan'S democratization be
left to the United Nations.
Declaring that military occupation
had nearly completed its constructive
functions. the Supreme Commander
for the Allied Powers said that if the
U.N cannot provide the mild control
needed for Japan, the U.N. cannot
meet any challenge.
In his first on-thc-record press con-
ference since early in the war. Gen.
Macarthur said the first phase of oc-
cupatiOn demilitariZation had
ended. The political phase, he said,
was approaching such completion as
is possible under occupation" The
third phase-ecOnomic-Cannotb be set
tied by occupation authorities
Japan still was blockaded economic
ally by Allied powers, Macarthur
said Settlement of this problem is
possible only through a peace treaty.
Japan today understands as, thor
oughly as any nation that war does not
pay" said Macarthur Her spiritual
revolution probably was the greatest
the world has ever Known.
II don't mean that this thing called
democracy has been accomplished
The process of characterization is ons
of continual hux; it takes years But
insofar as you can lay down the frame
work, it already is accomplished There
is little more except to watch, control
and guide
