Charge Of The Light Brigade

There is room for an honest sus.
picion that Americans don't know
beans about this kind of warfare.
That would. account for IL the
criticism there has been of every
American attempt to wage it.
The throwing around OF humid
reds Of millions of dollars worth
of relief and loans and military
weapons is fine, hut it apparently
isn't enough. The reason it isn't
enough is that the Communists 20
around spreading lies about all the
good deeds.
1t isn't necessary to 60 out and
tell lies about the Communists -
to fight dirty just because they
fight dirty-though that has been
suggested. But it is necessary to
counter-attack with truth, just to
ke1o>the record straight.
That's why the congressional
cuts Of State Department Informal
ton and cultural affairs budgets
are suicidal. They are like refus-
ing to pass ammunition in the
Battle Of the Bulge.
They take away the only wea-
pons which the government has to
combat communism overseas,
whether inexpertly used or not.
Cuts which the Senate Appropri-
atoms Subcommittee under Sen.
Joe Ball of Minnesota has just put
in the State Departments "coun-
ter-intelligence" program make
its task almost hopeless.
On an $11.5 million net basis
for next year, So million will have
to- be spent in the United States.
Broadcasting the Voice Of Ameri-
ca programs will take Sc million
of that.
The 1926 million which the Sen
ate subcommittee allows for
spreading American ideas over
seas through the U. S. embassy
STATS is less than hall of the So 8
million requested for this work
next year.
The reduced appropriation will
make it necessary to close hall
the offices now being operated in
" foreign countries, the army
Of $500 trained specialists now
fighting U. S. counter-propaganda
warfare to a mere 800. That num-
Der is a bit reminiscent Of the
CID fifth reader poem about the
gallant 500 in the Charge of the
Light Brigade.
They were licked before they
started.

This is the fifth of a series Of
simple plays that are often
missed. Declarer certainly had
enough tricks iii today's hand
icur hearts, four spades, the ace Of
clubs and a club ruff.
Nevertheless we will see how
he can trip over his feet and miss
the contract.
p, The opening lead should be won
with the king Of clubs, the ace Of
clubs cashed, and the third club
should be rufted in dummy. But
if d%eclarer ruffs with the four Of
spades, he makes mistake mol.
His spades are solid, and he should
ruff the club with the king Of
spades.
Now he should cash the ace Of
spades and lead the FOUR OF spades
o%vertaking in his hand with the
ten, and the jack will pick up the
opponents last trumps.
Next declarer should lead the
ten of hearts. East will cover with
the jack, but if declarer goes up
with dummy's king, he will block
the suit off. Let East hold the jack
OF hearts. East probably will con-
ti1ue with a heart, and declarer
cashes the c. of hearts, and dis.
cards his two losing diamond on
the. seven and SIX of hearts.
If North makes the mistake O.
ruffing the third club with the
four Of spades, or of winning the
first heart trick, he will complain
Of hard luck when he fails to
make the contract. But the ma
jority of hard luck" hands are
simply carelessly played hsrds.

independence

independence Day. If ever there was
a time the significance of this holiday
should be impressed upon the Ameri-
can people it is now, on the day cele-
brating the signing of the Declaration
of independence. With boring from
within, infiltration and an intensive
propaganda campaign waged for an
alien theology, with domestic problems
that seem to be %unsolvable, Americans
need to focus upon the proposition that
the Founding Fathers left us a preci-
Gus heritage Of freedom and that only
by holding fast to our legacy can we
survive and prosper.
We must be as determined, as stall
lwart and courageous, in our battle for
democracy now as were the men who
put their names to the Declaration with
a powerful enemy all but at their
Threats. In no other way can the threat
of totalitarianism, as represented by
communistic Russia, be removed. Other
wise the United States and all foreign
nations practicing the principles Of
democracy ultimately will be in thrall
to Russia and their peoples reduced to
serfdom.
We believe the State Department
is right in it's decision to go ahead with
augmentation Of the Marshall pro-
posal, wen though it may bring an
economic and political break with Soviet
Russia. The nations of Europe that
take the initiative in seeking their own
economic salvation deserve such help as
we can extend. It will mean heavy
burdens, will tax our resources tremen-
ldously, but if the world is to be saved
from communism and slavery the bur-
dens must be shouldered and the re-
sources tapped.
The United States is the only power
capable of turning the tide of COM
munism back. It must not falter in that
duty.
Today, therefore, is the proper time
for rededication by all the American
people to the cause of freedom.
In this re%dedication it is we'll to re-
call these words from Washington's
farewell address:
"Citizens by birth or. choice Of a
common country, that country has a
right to concentrate your affections
The name of American, which be-
longs to you in your national capacity.
must always exalt the just pride of
patriotism more than any appellation
derived from local determinations. With
slight shades of difference, you have
the same religion, manners, habits, and
political principles. The independence
and liberty you possess are the work
OF joint councils and Joint efforts. of
common dangers, sufferings and sue
cesses."

High Court 10 Hear
Bakery Union Case

The Supreme Court soon will hear
arguments involving the right to
obtain an injunction against labor
union-a case growing out of the
picketing and boycotting of WASH
ington delicatessen.
The tribunal yesterday agreed to
hear the case. Bakery Sales Drivers
Local Union No. 80 (AFL) asked
the court to hold the lower courts
erred when they granted an injunc-
ton against it and in favor of Wag-
shars Delicatessen, 1855 Massa-
chuSetts avenue NV. The late
Joseph A. Padway, chief AFL coun-
sci, said in his petition the United
States Court Of Appeals here had
ignored the Norris-La Guardia Act,
which restricts the use of injunc-
tionS In labor disputes.
The delicatessen's lawyers con-
tended the Taft-Hartley Act bans
the union practices it complained
Of and asked the high court to ignore
the case.
The court was told the union
in July, l945, picketed the delicates-
sen and shut off bakery supplies
through a boycott. The delicatessen
contended the union threatened to
halt shipments to it, including those
received by railway express from
outside the District.
The injunction granted by District
Court was sustained by the appeals
court. The latter ruled the union
demands failed to involve a real
labor dispute involving employees.
