Last night the President was
punctual as always and the concert
got under way promptly at $50.
Every box was filled eventually,
after some stragglers came in late,
and every other seat in the house,
except those nearest the stage,
seemed to be occupied. Box-holders
as usual were formally dressed, as

Aw Force RearmimgLs OmlyWay
To Avert War, Analyst Holds

The immediate re-arming of the
American air force is the only pos
sible way of averting a third world
war, Constantine Brown, foreign
news analyst of The. Star, asserted
yesterday in an address to the Wo-
mans Club of Chevy Chase.
I'VE are now in the shadow OF a
war;" Mr.. Brown told the large audi
ence. There is no question Of 1t. And
it is not question of when. 1t is not
a question of five years hence or
ten years hence; war is much closer
than that"
Since the United States and
Russia, the only remaining great
powers, are so widely separated in
their views. Mr.. Brown said.. Russia
considers this country its chief
enemy. The United States harbors
no hostile intentions toward the
Soviets. On the other hand, Russia
is expanding her sphere and can be
expected to continue to do so, as
have all relationships.
Cites Figures on Forces.
He offered statistics on the rela-
tive strength of the Russian mill
tary machine and the American
forces to point up the commanding
edge Russia would have if she should
attack, and he declared American
possession of atomic bombs is not
sufhcient, under the conditions, to
be deterrent.
1--WE can't attack with the atomic
bomb If We don't have the planes, u
he asserted. And if we had a great
air force, we wouldn't need the
atomic bomb"
After detailing communist meth
DDS Of inf1ltrating other countries
with specific reference to France
and Italy, Mr.. Brown expressed con-
viction that no amount of aid ex-
tended through loans, relief and the
Marshall plan could prevent the
collapse" of the Western countries oi
Europe.
He said much of the assistance to
Europe through UNRRA had gone
into channels of benefits to Com
munists who take orders 100 per cent
from Moscow and that the loan OF
more than three and a half billion
dollars to England was not saving
Britain. In numerous instances, he
asserted, UNRRA help went to coun-
tries with ample supplies which are
tied up through Communist manipu-
lations within the governments
Those who join the Communist
Party there receive extra rations; so
the party rolls keep growing, he said.
Mr.. Brown said Sir Stafford
Cripps recently told a group of
Americans that the British program

Evening star., 1947-10-16

The cancelling of all state dinners
at the White House undoubtedly will
set the precedent as to the type Of
entertaining that will take place in
the capital this winter.
The President and Mrs. Truman
dropped the state dinners from the
official program because of the ur-
gent necessity for food conservation,
in order that this country may do
its part inrelieving hunger abroad.
And there is no doubt that the
towns leading hosts and hostesses
will follow their example and ar
range their party schedules accord
ingly.
Capitalites, who take part in the
social whirl, have been spoiled by
the lavish spreads that are dis
pensed at foreign embassies and the
city's most imposing private dwell
ings. Frequently after partaking
of refreshments at an embassy
function, it really isn't necessary
to have any dinner at all that same
night.
out ulClliUCIS vi SoNJCby always
can be depended upon to do more
than their share in helping out in
a crisis. The little matter of how
much food is served isn't going to
keep them from enjoying mingling
with their friends-and, whatever
foreign celebrities happen to be
about.
This winter is going to give hos
tesses the opportunity of gaining
the title of successful party givers
not because of an elaborate buf-
fet but because of ingenuity in con-
cocting dishes of such food stuffs
that are perishable, or not necessary
to the food conservation program.
The smart hostess might follow in
the footsteps of an outstanding hos
tess of years ago by using various
shaped molds in preparing her din
ner. For instance, this hostess would
whip up a seafood or vegetable
mixture, place it in a mold resembl-
ing a chop or steak, and until you
cut into it, you would never dream
from it's appearance that it really
wasn't meat. In those days many
guests invited to her home didn't
know in advance that the lady was
q vegetarian. They we're a little
disappointed about the absence OF
meat. But now it would be diff

E*-Head Says OAR
Has Some Radicals

Mrs. julius Y. Talmadge, past
president general of the Daughters
of the American Revolution, told
newspaper women last night she
believes there are a few fellow
travellers" in the ranks of the
society. They are not admitted,
however. If we see them first" she
added.
Mrs. Talmadge. who is national
membership chairman in the ad-
ministration Of her successor, Mrs.
Roscoe c. O'Byrne. pointed out that
a prospective candidate must be
both eligible" and desirable" be-
fore she is accepted into the or
ganization. The national society
does not define "desirability," as
members are voted in by the local
chapters, she pointed out.
The society now has 158, 900 mem
bers-a gain Of $4,000 in the past
three years-and is working for q
total membership Of 100000 by the
end of Mrs. OByrne's three-year
term of Office, 1t was stated.
The question of membership came
up at an informal press party given
yesterday for Mrs. O'Byrne by the
national press relations chairman,
Mrs. Herbert r. Hill.
Mrs. Grace H. L. Brosseau, editor
of the OAR magazine, told the re-
porters that she personally pre-
fers Communists to fellow travellers
or ultraliberals. because I know
where a Communist stands"
Mrs. O'Byrne declared that an
Informed membership" is one of
the goals Of her administration. She
will make a special effort to have
the individual members study reso-
lutions which have been passed by
the organization.
The new president general. who
was elected in May. said she did not
think the emergency food conserva-
ton program or the Marshall plan
would come up for discussion dur
ing today's meeting of the National
OAR Board, being held at the So
ciety's headquarters.

DISCRIMINATION
FIGHT CONTINUES

Ever since the ten-day strike of the
Butte miners in 1916, the Montana
Anti Discrimination League has been
endeavoring to secure some action,
through government agencies, looking
to remuneration and ratification of the
right to work" of many of the more
than 100 men who without benefit of
union membership saw fit to support
the union miners in their efforts to
secure a reasonable increase in wages.
In the meantime, the men discrimi-.
mated against and their families, were
given financial relief from funds do
mated by Miners Union membership
and many other unions So far the ef-
forts of the league to get definite ac-
ton by the government against the
Anaconda Copper Mining company
have proved unavailing At times it
has appeared that the ACM was about
to be hailed before an impartial tri-
bunal to decide whether or not the
ACM company was liable under the
law
At times, alas, it has appeared that
the efforts of the officers of the league
were being given the brush off,
1t should not be inferred, by anyone
interested, that the case Of the men
who have filed complaints against the
ACM has been abandoned by the |
league. In this connection it is re-
called that a similar case in the Occur
d'Alenes was decided in favor of the !
men after the lapse of three years.
1t will be realized that the ACM is |
a rich and powerful corporation; that
many strings can be pulled But it |
is inevitable that, sooner or later the |
defenseless> and senseless discrimina-
ton (black list) of the ACM against |
former employees will be eradicated |
and relegated to the limbo of many 9TH !
er acts of the ACM of which that com
pany does not boast.
1t took about three years to subdue
the Kaiser and about four years to KO
Hitler. So keep the chin up-The

is also valuable for game feed, recre-
alton, and watershed protection. We
believe that all of these things have
their place and should be correlated.
But, only a small percentage of the
stock raised in Montann Craze on pub
lie lands, whereas, thousands of
sportsmen and tourists build up their
health and spend large sums of money
enjoying the use of these lands every
year
From the national standpoint these
lands are worth more for game, recre-
alton, and watershed protection, than
they are for the grazing of domestic
livestock
We believe in using these lands for
grazing, wildlife, recreation, watershed
protection and as many other uses as
they can be put to- But if legislation
is introduced to turn these lands over
to favored few, we will back a
counter proposal that domestic live
stock be removed from all government
owned lands and eliminate this sub
sidy now being allowed to a small
group.
These lands belong to all of the
people and they should be kept open
