on the dangers to the country's

YOU AND THE SCOUT CITIZEN

(By LOrne w. Barclay)
 What does your citizenship mean to you personally? Is it voting and paying taxes? Is knowing how the town council run? Or how your taxes spent? Just knowing those things good start but not enough for these days
 For one thing what do you think you personally can do about the citizenship of your Scouts? Or is the prob lem of developing good citizens too much today for any man? .
 The world spotlight is focused directly upon our American idea of citizenship, upon loyalty to proclaimed way of life It is world looking for action not words The day of the alker is past the time for the do-er Two different ideas of citizenship joined in world struggle smack in the center of the worlds
 We must help the Scout to know how to be good cit izen in his atomic world And the real test of train ing and help is the conduct of the Scout.
 Our concept of citizenship must give equal import to the individual and the community As leaders, must generate within ourselves the spiritual and mental influence needed to help boy to We must think deeper than activities and realize that the whole spirit and atmosphere of Scouting make important tributions to developing the Scout citizen.
 In these trying times example is powerful He who would point out the way to boys must travel the road. The Scout differentiated, the world citizen needs the spirit of Scouting The boy who grows up with the Oath the Law and the spirit of service God and Country will be the who is ready to give than he demands. The youth who keeps himself physically strong mentally awake, and morally straight is develop ing those qualities the future citizen will need if he is to uphold the democratic life.
 The Troop leader who uses the Scout Oath and Law the rules of the game has gone far in beterng the citizenship of his boys If develop objective of participating citizenship successfully must play the game of Scouting according to the rules.
 One prime rule of Scouting is the democracy of the Patrol method When used correctly the Patrol system is shop for praccing selfgovernment It is in the Patrol where the boy learns fellowship and leadership not by reading, not by hearng but by dong Teamwork and cooperation so basic in constructive citizenship be direct result of giving the boy the opportunity practice these very qualities in his Patrol The Patrol is like the family, and the family is the base of social organization.
 Man doth not live by bread alone," nor is the boy Scout by activities only True must have bread and Scout must have camping and hiking But the out door program not designed just to bulge boys cles The outdoors gives opportunities to teach ct- zenship without preaching The great outdoors be interpreted to show the importance of Gods handwork basic interest in conservation be there the Troop undertakes conservation projects such wild
 life protection, tree planting, soil conservation, etc.
 Good citizenship, then, is primarily good Scouting. Bu it must not be passive citizenship We must be mod and alive in interpreting to Scouts the code of active constructive citizenship in his atomic world.
 Can we do it?

BRITISH VIEWS ON CRISIS

The present crisis, Berlin blockade, is given much space in the London newspapers according to issues of Monday as reported by the BEG short wave.
 The Daily Graphic and the Daily Mail headlned articles with Crisis Here" Daily Herald heading speaks of New Steps to Beat the Soviet Blockade of Berlin" as the Royal Air Force begins sending in coal. ern airf in suite of bad weather and the Times says adequate food supplies are reaching the German cap tal The Daily Herald splashes the Russian boast that the Soviet air force is the best in the world
 Declaring that the mounting dangers in Berlin arise directly from that program, the Times goes on to say that the Russians began the blockade of the Western sectors believing that the Western Powers would be found hesitant disunited Though the Hague conference was not called to discuss Berlin it provides test of Western intentions and prepared ness The Times believes that the challenge in Berlin requires immediate and clear decisions. So long as the Russians remain obdurate, the dangers will mount Each side is being driven to the point where an open clash might become unavoidable.
 Both the Daily Mai ey.a the Daily Graphic think that the possibility of war between Russia and the West should be faced. The Graphic calls on Britain to show herself prepared and says that while long, term civil defense plans to be presented to Par
 amen this year it would be good thing to put short term plans into operation at once.
 The Daily Mail says it has always been assumed that Russia does not want While emphasizing that no one can read the minds of the rulers of Russia the Mail says recent events may have changed their views and they may feel that the best chance for their Communist expansion policy is to strike this year next.

ron, Ohio, has periodically offer ed to print 100000 copies of a message to the Russian people with out charge Tn addition, Percy Smith of 42 Products Ltd, Los Angeles, has written me that his company would be glad to supply bars of soap imprinted with a message Soap is almost as pre- cious as gold in Russia.
 Tn addition, the Schutter Candy Company of Chicago has volun- teered Q million candy bars, while the U. s. Time Corporation Un- gersolD has said it would con- tribute a number of Mickey Mouse wristwatchs over which the Rus sians go crazy.
 These are just a few Of the people who would be glad to come forward and help their country prevent war. It's not new for peo- pie to help their country to win war, but find that lot of people also are only too anxious to help their country prevent war.
 In other words, these friendship messages could be dropped over Russia with no expense to the

government whatsoever, other than the cost of the gasoline to fly the planes-and you will have to use the same amount of gasoline on maneuvers anyway.
 One of the surest ways to head off war is to show the Russian people that we, the American peo- pie, aren't what the 14 men in the Kremlin say we are.
 AS long as the Krenlin knows that 180,000,00O Russians will un- flinchingly obey the order to march without Congressional debate, without criticism, and without knowing anything about the issues then war can be just around the corner.
 I repeat that all sorts of people, including the undersigned, will be glad to help you with this pro- ject so that it won't cost the government a cent. It can't hurt and it may do some good I hope this suggestion is not presumptuous and that you will let me know what you think of it.
 Very sincerely yours,
 DREW PEARSON.

 In the fve-year plan, development of industrial Alaska is also an object settlement search for minerals start and expansion of paper pulp mills, scientific re- search on fish conservation and many other important enterprises.
