 And third, governments controlling strategic areas along the Arctic perimeter have been unwilling to accord the United States the of those areas for military purposes to the extent which Washington apparently considers desirable"
 In view of those dsappontments, the report said, American policy toward the Arctic regions "as now applied adds to the tension of the world without sing to safeguard effectively in the event of war The study continued:
 If military men are correct in assuming that the Arctic and sub Arctic regions may be theatre of warfare between the United States and the Soviet Union, their main of should be not diplomacy but the Americans imperfect adjustment to warfare and life in extreme temperatures and the underpopuation of the Northern in which the United States is interested

Eisenhower com mented on the high number of casualties suffered by American troops in Belgum's relatively mild cold weather.
 The report declared that repeated statements in public that military combat in the Arctic is likely can aggravate the general tension between America and Russia, and noted that Canadian officials have made suggestions for softenng the rivalry between the two great powers with respect to the Arctic regions The study added:
 "A cooperative spirit marked the activities of the powers in the Arctic before World War IT, but in recent years fear attack has prompted this country to rely on it's own military strength and on biateral dplo- matic agreements to strengthen itself in the Far North

voters in this country which switches from one party to the other according to the candidate. Roosevelt was always able to swing this bloc to the Democrats. War ren, on the other hand, is the one Republican who can be sure of swinging them back to the COP.
 He has proved this Tn California. Asked how he was able to carry every one of California's 58 coun- ties for Governor in 1942, Warren replied. T did it with Democrats" 1" In 1946 he was so popular with both paries, that the Democrats as well as the Republicans re- nominated him. And in the recent California primary, Warren got about the same number of votes as Truman, despite the fact that there are 100000 more registered Democrats than Republicans.
 Unquestionably, Warren is the one 100 percent sure-fire COP candidate guaranteed to beat any Democrat, probably including Eis- enhoWer.

WARREN vS. DEWEY

There is one great difference between Warren and Dewey. Both have given their states extremely efficient administrations. Both are highly competent executives Both have spent almost all their lives in the complicated science of government.
 But Warren has deep-rooted sym pathy for human beings Dewey has stood up for minorities, but his position seems to come from a sense of fairness and political expedience, not from sympathy.
 An off-the-record conversation occurring at the Governors con- ference in Portsmouth, N. H., last week, illustrates the difference be- tween the two men.
 At the Governors breakfast, Dewey started lambasting the teachers lobby, said it had flood ed the country with falsehoods,

REPORT ON ARCTIC DEFENSES

United States defenses are dangerously weak" in the Arctic regions if American military officials are correct in regarding that part of the world as the strategic center of any future great war, and the country should take steps at once to strengthen itself there" report published by the Foreign Policy Association and written by Blair Boles, Director Of the FPA Washington office, states.
 The report cautioned, however, that If the Arctic has been overemphasized as the first outpost of de- fense" for the North American continent this should become known "so that the country can focus it's attention on areas of greater importance from the thoroughgong inquiry into the implications of our Arctic policy and the best for developing 1t concretely and adequately is of urgent import ance."
 The report noted that the geographical fact that the shortest route between the United States and European Russia crosses the Arctic Sea has prompted military authorities in the United States to predict that the polar regions would be a major zone of combat should the presently strained Sovet-American relations degenerate into war" It added: approaches of this hemisphere has proved dsappont- ing in three particulars

TEACHERS FRIENDS

Governor Warren and Governor Tom Mabry of New Mexico, Dem- ocrat, didn't think much of this.
 Tn New Mexico Mabry, re- marked, we are short 600 teachers. We think teachers should be paid more than domestic servants, who get $50 a week-if you can find them. Common labor gets dollar an hour. I don't see why you should single out the teachers lobby What about the utilities lobby, the oil lobby, the liquor lobby and a lot of others? I can't see any reason why the teachers, who have always been underpaid, should be singled out"
 Dewey maintained, however, that he had had no other trouble with other Hobbies.
 T don't know how it is in your state, Tom,' argued Governor Warren, and maybe as you say there is no teacher shortage in New York. But there certainly is in California, and many of the teachers are being. paid less than the janitors. certainly see no reason why the Governors should take any action against the teach CTS such as you propose"
 Dewey, however, still wanted the Governors conference to undertake publicity campaign against the teachers. I'm going to fight that

 It is the privilege of few men to be buried in so last resting place of the Rt Edward J. Flanagan
 Stricken across the world another mission in the interests of youth, the famed Father Flanagan has come home to final rest in Boys Town Nebr the institution founded upon his precept that there no such thing as bad boy" It is his own wish that he is buried in the chapel of Boys Town The acting director explains: "He wanted to be near his boys so they could visit him at any time"
 Yes in the institution itself and in the spirit which created Boys Town may be found monument finer and more enduring than the most resplendent marble or graven stone. What better epitaph could any artisan write than Father Flanagan himself wrote in the minds and hearts of his fellow men: There is no such thing bad boy.
 In the spirit of that sentence Father Flanagan accomplished revolution in the treatment of juvenile delinouency Boys Town founded on a loan Of S9O The idea became mission and the building be- came an institution The need outraced the facilities, but Boys Town provided the pattern for others to follow Today across the nation opportunity has re- placed incarceration the keystone of dealings with problem youth
 The pity is that Father Flanagan could not remaln forever as the gentle guiding force behind Boys Town But at least enough time given him to achieve one of the most notable reformatons in the history of penoogy From hence forward it remains only for the survivors of Father Flanagan to keep steady on the course he with that misunderstanding phrase: There is no such thing bad boy"

wARREN,s FATHER MURDERED

Earl Warren's broad sympathy for people comes from the strug- gling days of his boyhood. He began life as call-boy in a roundhouse in Bakersfield, Calf, where his job was to pedal to the homes of freight-train crews and notified them when their train was to be made up. His father, a master car-builder, got fired dur ing a railroad strike, lost his home had to move and look for wori elsewhere. Later, his father was killed by an intruder who broke in- to their house and bludgeoned the elder Warren to death The mur- derer was never apprehended.
 Warren understands and likes human beings. And they like him. He has been great cleaner-up of California, has purged racket eers, the Ku Klux Klan, the big gamblers. He has served in state and county jobs for 30 years, knows the intricate job of running a government. He is an excellent speaker, but shuns the delicate job of trading delegates, pulling back stage wires so necessary to get a Presidential nomination.
 But if the Republican Party wants to be 100 percent sure of victory, Earl Warren is their best and ablest bet.
