EISENHOWER GIVES TALK,
 WEST POINT
Dediedtes Graduating Cadets 10 Cause of
 World Peace

WEST POINT, June 3.-|Rl-Gen- eral Eisenhower today dedicated the military careers of 311 embryo gen. erals to the cause of world peace.
 Addressing the U. s. Military Academy's graduating class, the Chief of Staff said that the true soldier of America is a leader for world cooperation. He told the cadets, who were commissioned sec ond lieutenants, that their immedi- ate mission was to man the fortress for which freedom still finds need. But, Eisenhower emphasized, this service does not imply subscription to the rule of might.
 War, he said. is mankind's most tragic and stupid folly; to seek or advise it's deliberate provocation is a black crime against all man, And then Eisenhower made the state ment:
 "The true soldier of America is a leader for world cooperation, know ing that to serve best the security of his country he must owrk for the cause of peace Here is lasting challenge to your breadth of under standing no less than to continuous professional development
 There was one other thing which General Eisenhower pointed up in his address to the West Pointers. He told them that their Army com missions do not confer upon them distinctive right CT privilege He said that their commissions do not give them greater share than their citi- zen brothers of courage, endurance, and fortitude.

Stub Smoking
There is stub smoking. Light a
cigarette, take a few puffs. then
stub it and return it to your pack,
Light it again a little later on,
This is estimated by the experts
to make a cigarette 20 three
times as far.
Or there is a variation On this
one. Save stubs from your poke,
o. twenty. When you are through
the pack, empty the stubs and you
will have enough tobacco FIR five
new cigarettes.
Men smokers are ADVISED tc
hide their packs in unfamiliar
pockets in their suits so they
won't be able to find them. House.
wives are counseled to keep the
cigarettes in another room while
cleaning the kitchen, and to keer
them out of sight at all times.
1t is also advocated that com,
muters should not ride in smoking
