Military Training


TALLAHASSEE, June S.
(FNS) General Jonathan M.
Wainwright, hero Of Corregidor,
speaking from the flower banked
rostrum of the House chamber
to a joint session of the House
and Senate, told legislators that
universal military training is
necessary as the keynote Of 4
permanent military policy
He said that some Of the most
active opposition to the univer-
sal training program comes from
men who are not working To keen
America yafey but co. undermine

Stressing preparedness for ac-
ton, Wainwright termed it "a
recognized factn that any future
war, if there is one, will come
with unprecedented suddenness.
''Our salvation, and the saliva
ton Of the world" he said, .'lies
in remaining SO strong that no
nation will dare provoke u.s."

PAUL HEFLIN. THOMAS KEEL

BROUGHT HERE; LAUNCH
DEVELOPED TROUBLE

A Navy rescue vessel, under
the direction Of the U. S. Coast
Guard. rescued three local boat
men wheH their fishing launch
ran into trouble at Marquesa
Key Tuesday night, it was learn
today.
Rescued were Paul Helm. A,
|611 Francis street. and Thomas L.
Kelly, So, and his son, Conway
Kelly, Is, also of the Francis
street address.
It was late Tuesday afternoon
when a Navy seaplane. based at
Boca Chica Field, saw the. boat
was in distress. The pilot dipped
and flew close to the boat. Helm
made motiAhs with an empty oil
can. The pilot winged back to the
field.
Later the Coast Guard got the
message. In the absence from the
city of the CG rescue vessel, the
83-405, of the Navy was standing
by with rescue craft, Dolphin, a
63-foot vessel. Boatswain's Mate
LIST Joseph E. Wodal was assign
ed by the Coast Guard to go
aboard the Navy ship and direct
her to the scene.
At Marquesas Key they soon
sighted the 18V96, small fishing
launch owned by Helm. The
Dolphin was unable to get closer
than one mile to the launch be-
cause of the shallowness of the
water. Helm and the two Kellys
were compelled to paddle their
boat to the side of the Dolphin.
Eve were pretty tired, but 9TH
erwise all right said Helm
later 81 waved the oil can at the
pilot Of the seaplane to let him
know that he had exhausted our
oil"

proposed.

world for centuries. It's rules are
clear and compel a certain course of
behavior. If possible opponent,
Great Power A, increases its arma-
ments Great Power B does likewise
If Great Power A extends its power
potential by absorbing the military
and economic resources of satellites,
Great Power B must do likewise.
If Great Power A discovers new,
decisive weapon, Great Power B
must do everything legitimate or
illegitimate to find out the secret
and improve on it. The assumption
Is that peace will be kept, either
by achieving such a balance between
the powers that either fears to
move or by acquiring such pre-
ponderance Of power on one side
that no one can challenge 1t.
Lesson Of History.
History does not support this as
sumption but records that compet-
ton between highly armed sover-
eign states invariably leads-sooner
or later-to armed conflict.
A large section Of the American
people does not think the U. S. has
taken a dynamic enough lead to
end this game. We know that one
side cannot quit, leaving the field
to the other. That Is futile appease-
ment But we do not think enough
effort has been made to persuade
both sides to quit.
Before we go in for peacetime
military training, We would like to
have had showdown in the United
Nations on the abolition of con-
scription on worldwide basis.
We would like to have had a show
down on universal, inspected and
controlled disarmament of weapons
of mass destruction, whether they
be atomic bombs of other horrend-
GUS instruments for destroying
hundreds of thousands of lives in
the course of hours. And we would
like to have seen the U. S. remind
itself and all other nations, with
dynamic conviction, that the leaders
of the u. N. are mutually pledged
to a warless world and system Of
collective security that works.

principally as a forum rather than
an effective peace enforcement
agency. But the chances of rehabil-
itating the U. N. are only slight.
One of the most explosive matters
on the .agenda will be the situation
in the Balkans. The Greek dele
gate has decided, with the approval
of his American and British COL
leagues, to ask the Asse hbly for ap-
plication of Article 81 hnder which
a nation can take ind fidual or COL
lective self-defense geps in the

Gle into effect.

They pointed out that besides the
votes of the USSR, Bielo Russia, the
Ukraine, Poland, Czechoslovakia and

called Arab bloc-Syria, Saudi Ara
bia, Iraq, Egypt, Yemen and Leb-
anon-will be added, making a total
of IL solid votes against enforcement
of the article.
Only II votes are needed to- defeat
the Greek request. The Slavic
Arab group could obtain five more

think the reason why there Is

Power Politics.
Since the people who supposed
the actions taken before the close
of hostilities-tiae Yalta declaration,
the Potsdam Agreement, and the
San Francisco Charter Cum Veto
and all the rest-are still largely
in power, and admit that the peace
they have made Is unstable. many
citizens wonder what confidence
they can have that the course now
being pursued will be more effective.

cents a loaf; butter costs from 26
cents to 81 cents a pound more;
eggs, 10 cents to So cents a dozen.
Mems suits now cost from $40 to
$40 more, with women's and child
ren's clothing prices in the strato-
sphere.
The cost of living, on a national
average, has increased Sc percent.
Corn has more than doubled in price
in less than a year, advancing to
a new high day after day. Savings
are being drawn upon to meet the
increased cost of living. Millions of
Americans are being priced out of
the market for food and other neces-
sites. Perhaps they will find solace
in the reassuring words of Repre-
sentative Buffet, of Nebraska, that
"the best cure for high prices is high
prices go"
Meanwhile, President Truman has
introduced new type of Govern
ment - hortatory Government - in
the naive belief that he can hold
farm prices up and at the same
time persuasively exhort the man
ufacturers to keep prices down, des-
pite rising costs of materials and
labor. Meanwhile, too, Congress is
busy investigating high prices. The
Justice Department Is investigating
high 'rices. The Federal Trade
Comm -sion Is investigating high
prices. Congress is besought on
the one hand to re-establish con-
trolls and, on the other. to leave
everything to the good old law of
supply and demand.
But while Congress and the Ad-
anxiously wave their
arms in complete futility, the citizen
might well reflect that high prices
today that mount ever higher and
higher, are no more an assurance
Of continuing prosperity than were
the high prices preceding the 1929
crash.

This Changing World
U.N. Assembly, Meeting Weeks Hence,
May Provide Answer for World Peace

mittee which proposed division Of
Palestine between the Arabs and
Jews will be, in all likelihood, sup
ported by the United States.
The Arabs already are on record
as opposing it. It is believed in
official quarters that one of the first
indications of their displeasure with
the U. S. policies in the jewish Arab
conflict of interests will be in joining
Russia and her satellites against a
proposal which the Arab representa-
tives believe Is strongly desired by
the American Government.
Can't Sidetrack Issues.
. The United Nations Assembly will
be confronted two weeks hence with
more inf1ammable matters than the
late League of Nations faced
throughout its existence. 1t will not
be sufficient to pass general resolu-
tions such as that universal peace is
essential or express in f1amboyant
oratory pious wishes for the future
OF the human race. The Assembly
will have he-man's job and will
not be able to sidetrack any of the
many issues which will be presented
by its members.
The smaller western nations, par
those in the Pacific and in
the two Americas, are bent on max
ing the Assembly more than forum
for general discussions. Since it has
become obvious that the Council, to
which the executive powers Of the
U. N. were entrusted, is not capable
of dealing with the world situation,
these smaller nations, which fear
another armed clash would sound
the death knell of civilization, wish
to show that the Assembly can be-
come an enforcement rather than
consultative body as the charter
trainers intended.
The slogan of the delegates who
take up the battle will be that the
majority wishes and decisions must
prevail over the minority regardless
of how powerful the minority may
be. The battle in New York after
16 will be similar to
that waged in this country by small
firms against powerful monopolies.
The American and British govern
latter prodded by the
dominions-unquestionably will sup
port this move of the smaller ma
lions. Russia has made the Security
Council imperative. Hence another
;ype of international government"
must be found. 1t may be that the
U. N. Assembly will provide the an
swer for world peace in spite of the
inevitably more cumbersome ma
,hinery of IS nations having to make
decisions in some in
stances by a two-thirds majority.
