Take My Word for 1t
By Fronk CoIby
py TuHk NU'Uy
Readers Corner.

r. H. G., of Beverly Hills, adds
this theory to the many others as
to the origin of the word jalopy:
about 20 years ago Milt Gross
published his very funny book
fNize Baby The mother, in telling
her child a fairy tale cinderella,
I believe), SAYS that the horses
drawing the carriage jalopied away
(galloped away. So the word ia
lopy comes from gallop. We. on
the west side of Chicago at that
time, began to call all old cars ja-
lopies."
Oakland: Please explain Charles
Boyers famous movie line Come
with me to the Casbah." Sounds
French to me.-B. M.
Answer - Casbah ;(also spelled
KasbahD is the name Of the native
and older section of Algiers. 1t
takes Its name from the Casbah
fortress or citadel, which was built
in the 10th century. The correct
pronunciation of Casbah is KAHSS-
bah.
Shelby: Here is question for
you to settle: Is there such an
animal as kolinsky-P. F. P.
Answer - Strictly speaking, no,
But several minks of Northern
China and Russia, and especially
of Siberia. are known by the name
Of Kolinsky. 1t is Russian word
meaning, "Of or pertaining to the
Kola peninsula" where minks
abound. Among furriers Kolinsky
is the name given to the pelt or
fur of any of these minks.

Truman Shows
 Mailed U. s. Fist To Communism

Continued from Page One, ennce and heard Marshall couple with his pronouncement of crisis and appeal for moderation, calm thinking and cool judgment on the part of the American people.
 Officials expect that crisis to raech a climax first and most di- rectly in the Italian political cam paigns leading up to elections there April l8. Here are the points which the President, the secretary or both in some cases-stressed:
 1. The European recovery pro- gram-which is now near final action in the Senate but awaits House debate-should be carried out promptly.
 2. The United States encourages the formation of what Marshall called a political association in Western Europe as the first step to restoring stability.
 3. The spread of communist governments anywhere in the world, including China. is opposed hv the American government. And Mir. Truman indicated this coun- try will do everything in its power to block communism. .: 4. The United States will con- tinue to work for world peace wherever possible, but the prob lem is now more difficult than at any time since the end of the war. 5. Meanwhile, the American people must keep their fears and their passions" under control in spite of what Marshall called the distractions" of election year campaigns here at home.

Partition Will Be Secondary Issue
(By Larry Hauck)

NEW YORK, (P) - Worsening relations between the United States and Russia may deal death blow to Palestine partition.
 Some United Nations delegates said today they believe Palestine may become only minor item in the overall Russian dip lomatic conflict.
 They figure Palestine might quickly be lost in the shuffle of larger affairs if the worsening conditions stated by President Truman yesterday-can not be righted by sudden action.
 The United States is becoming more cautious daily in its ap- proach to the problem of forcibly putting through the U. N-approv- ed split-up of the Holy Land into Jewish and Arab nations. The other great powers also are feeling their way along.

Czech Foreign Minister Dead

PRAGUE (P)-Czechoslovakia's communist government got a unanimous vote of confidence in parliament yesterday as it pre- pared a state funeral for foreign minister Jan MaSaryk.
 Thus, in two weeks and two days after the seizure of power, communist premier Element Gott- wald has tied up parliamentary approval for the program for which he had battled since las summer.
 When chairman Josef David called for the confidence vote, all the 233 deputies who were present raised their hands. The parlia- ment has normal membership of 300.
 Ahead of the deputies is the adoption of legislation to legalize activities of the action committees which GottWald set up as the Czech crisis developed. The com mittees took control of the govern ment for him and quickly began to guide every phase of public and private life.
 Jan Masaryk's state funeral will be Saturday. He will be buried be- side his father, founder and first President of the Czechoslovak re- public.
 The 61-year-old non-party for eign minister was found dead Wednesday, two weeks after the new cabinet came to power, in a stone courtyard more than 50 feet below his bathroom window at the foreign office. The government said he jumped.
 Czechoslovakia mourned the minister today in shocked melan- choly. Half-staffed tricolors and black banners did not begin to tell the story of the loss felt by the nations little people"
 Czechoslovaks are a hard-head- ed, sofe-hearted people, unasham- ed of sentimentality. The love they lavished on their world-famous son in his lifetime was matched at his death by their sorrowing.
