NEW YORK, Oct. 24-Samuel
Novick, born in Vitebsk, Russia,
in 1897. arrived in the United
States in 1914, age II, with that
nice timing which permitted 9TH
er immigrants about the same
age. from the same land, to es-
cape service under the Car a.
gainst the Kai-er. He was ma
turalized in 1925. In l943, after
the United States entered the
crusade against the genocide
monster, Adolf Hitler, he began
manufacturing confidential and
secret" radar and other electro
mic equipment for the Air Forces.
He turned out roughly" $6,0OO,-
900 worth in less than three
years, and much of his profit
went to Communist fronts. He
went to public school in benight-
ed Russia under the Gar and
to night school here. He worked
first IN 4 grocery store and next
In garment factories. Then he
was a radio telegrapher. After
that he became a business man,

IDENTITIES Of the Electronic Cor
poration of America, of which he
is president and his wife is secre-
tary, and several other COM
panies cannot be told apart.
He testified before the House
Committee on Un-American Acti-
vities that Electronic was first
known as tn Transformer Cor
poration of America. Then he
said Electronic was Originally"
known as the Wholesale Radio
Service Co., which also was
known as the Lafayette Radio
corp. That name, however, the
Lafayette name. was "just a
name used for a radio set" The
"aatual name" was Wholesale
Radio Service and Radio Wire
Tslsvision. There was another
company called Wholesale Radio
Sales. Another was calld Typa-
tune Inc.
Like the shrewd Sam Carp, of
Bridgeport, Conn, Molotov's
brother-in-law, who was cunning
enought to trim the buttons off
the tough Yankee traders Of Con-
nscticut in many a hard busi-
ness deal by posing as a green
horn, Novick has a trick of ap-
pearing to be confused by de-
tails. Like Carp he is careless
about time and figurs. He
never tells n lie under oath. He
just : axes mistakes. He can't

Washington, Oct. 25-(AP)-
The November elections are big
stuff to us. But they're leaving
people outside the United States
pretty cold.
We're up to our necAs in the
presidential campaign and in
what the Democrats and Repub-
icans have to say.
The newspapers front-page,
the arguments ard the air wave
bend under the load of words.
But - Stain once said he rec
ognizes no difference between
the Democrats and Republicans.
What he meant was that, to
someone with his viewpoint,
both parties stand for pretty
much the same thing and differ
only on details.
To anyone outside this country
there probably isn't much differ
ence.
The main point Of interest for
anyone overseas is:
what will a Democratic or
Republican victory mean to us?
Will there be any change in the
American Foreign Policy?"
But that point was already set
tied before the campaign start

couldn't quite recall whether 1t
was 5000 million or $500 million
that Molotov entrusted to him to
spend for war material in the
United States, or whether his
commission was to be two per

suspect that the New Masses and
other notorious concerns to whic
he gave tax-deductible contribu-

American contracts were Com

Polish Delegate To U. N. Says Truman
Is A Prisoner OF A Military Clique

The United Nations has recently learned through
the Polish delegate that President Truman is pris
oner of "a military clique which prevented him from
sending Chief Justice Vinson as peace envoy to
Premier Stain.
The Polish delegate, of course, was defending
Russia and advocating the Soviet proposals for dis
armament. He insisted that there is no Iron Cur
tan cutting off the Communist communities from the
rest of the world and reversing the allegation, said
such conditions exist in the United States.
The Pole accused the United States of imperial
sm referring to bases in Greenland and in the Paci-
fic and said that this country is busy fomenting u-
rest in Europe by short-wave radio every day.
The people of the United States will probably smile
indulgently at h accusations leveed against this
country by the Polish delegate Nevertheless, they
are along the line of similar assertions by the
representatives Of countries under the control Of So
Wet Russia. Altogether, they constitute remark
able barrage of insnuating halftruths which in
tended and no doubt, influence the thinking Of the
peoples Of Eastern Europe.
There Is hardly any way that the United States
can completely counteract such propaganda. The
'Voice of America" may gradually work some truth
into the thinking of people who have been unable to
get the facts but it Is not easy task to be
accomplished In few. weeks. In the long run, if
the peace of the world be kept the peoples Of the
world may understand what is going on and compre-
hend the difference between the policies of this
try and Soviet Russia.

Mass Formations OF Bombers Are

The mass formation of bombers that operated
during World War II is thing of the past according

two big bombers will penetrate enemy country, flying
at 10000 feet more at night and pin-point bomb
loads with radar sight.
The General does not think that the enemy can
has in mind the possibility of dropping atomic bombs.
The Air Force has recently tested the B36 described
as the worlds biggest long-distance bomber, with
range of 10000 miles, and the possibility of carrying
ten tons of bombs.
General Kenney calls it the airplane for the stra-
tegic destruction "of any conceivable enemy, any
where, in any war within the next five years" He
says that it will make possible aerial operations
from bases in the United States anywhere in the
world against possible aggressor."

Monotony in Meals, by Mrs Eve.
lyn Hahn, Red Cross Nutrition
Director
Do you ever get in a ,rut with
your meal planning? It's SO easy
to fall into the habit Of serving
the same foods over and over.
Of course, with food prices still at
their highest k, homemakers
with limited food budgets are
tempted to stick to the ~lower-cost
foods day. after day. Monotyony
may creep into meals-when the
same foods are repeated without
varying the form of serving them.
The other day a homemaker
told me that her market order of
groceries from a particular store
had not varied for four years. She
thought she kept her grocery bill
in this way. In such cases families
may exhibit tired appetites and
eat less Of the essential foods.
waste may also occur and
good nutrition may suffer.
Ne,c Ideas Needed j
Meal planning takes more time
one is watching the BUDGET
and it also requires more skill to
prepare low-cost foods lastly and
attractively.
Instead Of throwing up 70 RI
nands-and saying you're doing
he best you can with food prices;
IS they are, maybe some new
IDEAS can help. There are tasty
ways of serving cheaper cuts Of
neat-as beef heart, or low-cost
ruits-as prunes, that you may
lot have heard of. I've seen child.
