Teheran that the Iranians may rest as
sured that the American people will sup
port fully their freedom to make their own
choice" Also, 1t should not be forgotten
that the Soviet -Iranian dispute is still on
the agenda of the Security Council, despite
Soviet efforts to have 1t removed. So
any aggressive action by Moscow could
promptly reopen the case.
On the other hand, Moscow has warned
repeatedly of the possibility of unpleasant
consequences Moscow contends that the
agreement is binding, and the Soviet Am
bassador Is said to have told Premier
Qavam that the Soviet Union would con-
slider Iran a "bitter blood enemy" If Parlia-
ment did not approve the DEAL Recently
there have been reports of heavy Soviet
troop concentrations on the Azerbaijan
border and of subversive agitation in that
province. Thus, fresh trouble may be in
the wind.
One last factor should be considered.
This Is the attitude of Britain, which is
rather equivocal, in contrast to its vigorous
support of the Iranians last year. This
may indicate that, in case of renewed
Russo-Iranian crisis, London would let
Washington carry the load.

Ea&less.Meatless Days

To the Editor OF The star
I believe we should eliminate meat, poultry
and eggs from our diets all in one day each
week, for instance Wednesday. The present
scheme lets us substitute poultry or eggs Tor
meat on Tuesday and vice versa on THURSDAY,
so we do not have less consumption OF animal
products Eliminating all on the same oay
would force us to eat meat substitutes on one
day of each week, resulting in real savings
doubt if the present scheme saves as much as
10 per cent of the meat products as the one
day scheme would
Another emphasis that the administration
has overlooked is the request to eat more
cereals, e.g oatmeal, instead OF meat. 1t would
not hurt us to have two breakfasts oay
and only one dinner or lunch-type meal. IL
is well known that grain eaten directly 1eeos
about four times as many people as 1t does
when fed to livestock and then the livestock
eaten OF course, cereal Is not complete SUB
stitute for meat but it would not hurt us to eat
a little less meat and a little more grain.
Besides, this is q good way to bring down hign
food prices by decreasing the demand Tor
meat. Cereal meals are much cheaper.

National Trust Launched

The National Trust established by the
National Council for Historic Sites and
Buildings at its second conference here
last week should prove to be an agency
of great value to the American people.
1t will follow in practice the policies time
tested by similar bodies in England and

In the United States nearly century ago.

Of high cultural significance will be the
business of the organization. holding
corporation" of sort, it will represent
the philosophy of conservation applied to
houses and other structures worthy of
Indefinite preserving with their immediate
environs, their furnishings, their decora
tions intact. Maintenance, obviously, will
be an important part of the work There
is no use in saving fine old mansions simply
to let them decay. Neither is there any
utility in keeping alive" such edfices
exempt from public inspection.
Charleston, South Carolina, some years
back suddenly realized the inconsistency
involved in preserving portraits of eminent
citizens of earlier generations while their
homes were falling in ruins. The result OF
this discovery has been a program Of pro-
lection and restoration embracing more
than . thousand buildings. Meanwhile,
comparable enterprises have been launched
in Newport, Rhode Island, and elsewhere
John D. Rockefeller, junior, has made pos
sible the revival of Williamsburg, the
Colonial capital Of Virginia. On smaller
scale yet with distinction the village of
Odessa, Delaware, has been saved by an
other; private citizen. Philadelphia with
aid from Congress, soon is to begin
a project to rescue those portions of the
city in which the Nation was born.
The participants in this weeks confer
ence were not agreed as to whether the
new National Trust should attempt to
preserve sites of natural beauty or con-
centrate on man-made structures. Some
speakers thought such activity better
might be left to the National Park Service;
others believed the precedent of the British
and Scottish trusts, embracing mountains,
valleys lakes and rivers as well as castles,
manor houses, etc, should be accepted

Objects to Liquor Production

Objects to Liquor Production
To the Editor OF The Star:
We often hear people these days speaking Of
our economy minded Congress"
hope that is not altogether q misnomer.
hope members will put their minds on saving
some of the money they are spending on extra
police and extra hospitals to take care of the
drunks.
For the life of me, I cannot see where the
economy comes In by taxing liquor that we
positively know will make more drunkards and
subjects for disqualification, who will cost the
Government more in the end, both in loss of
manpower and money than all the revenue
We could possibly get from the liquor tax.
My suggestion to help solve the European
food problem and the shortage here at home Is
to put hve-year ban on the use Of fruit and
grain for the manufacture OF alcohol for
beverage purposes. The brewers have enough
already made or in the process Of making to
last five years. If 1t is rationed
1t would be much better to ration liquor Of
all kinds than food.
