OVER THlE
BACK FENCE
By MARGUERITE FINEFRoCK

Hiya Neighbor
It's practically Christmas,
We says to ourself,
AS we reached for the
Greetings there on the shelf.
The letters were jumbled
And all in a heap,
From lying all year
In box buried deep.
AS we lifted each letter
We gave it a glance
To see how it looked,
Leaving nothing to chance
OH DEAR
The M was all wrinkled
The f slightly bent.
The r leaned to portside
The r est of it spent.
The Y looked a wreck
All ragged and torn
Crumpled up in a ball
Like a thing forlorn.

Note to Sylvester Fritz-May-
be this is reaching you the long
way round, but Justin Rofkar left
it up to us to pass along a sprig
of holly to you for your thought
fulness the other day. Remember,
you dropped a coin in the meter
where his car was parked when
Justin was busy talking and hadn't
noticed the time was up. So we're
sending you his vote of apprecia-
tion tied up with a tinsel ribbon,
and of course, that sprig of holly.

NJ JAMES MARROW

Washington, Oct. fa--(AP)-
Can there be peace with Russia
That's the No. l problem Of
our time, President Truman told
the American Legion at Miami.
Then he said there's a dark
fog Of distrust" between Russia
and the west, and while il re-
mans there's rot much nope for
settling disputes.
But the distrust has been there
from the beginning. So here in
simple form is an outline Of the
peace problena and the cause Of
the distrust.
Take the position Of this coun-
try first
Between the Communist re-
vofution Of 1917 and World War
III Russian communism stayed
within the borders Of the Soviet
Union.
The Communists under Stain
there thought it smarter TO build
up their strength at home before
they tried any adventures else
where.
But while the Russina corr
rnunists stayed inside Russia, the
United States and the rest Of
Europe could 60 on doing bust
ness among themselves and even
trade with Russia.
The picture changed after the
war. There was no country on
the continent of Europe which
the Russians had to fear.
They began TO put on pressure,
Almost all the countries Of east
ern Europe fell under Russian
control, run by their own com
rnunists.
And the communists in the
western democracies OF Europe
tried 10 win power, too.
But where does this stop, ii
the United States is going to
survive?
Suppose, ther, that without
that aid Western Europe colisps-
ed, revolutions followed and the
Communists took over.
That would mean an all-com-
munist Europe.
But would the communists
stop there7 Why should they7
Taking over Africa then would
be easy for them.
And IL we withdrawinto true
isolation. II would mean stopping
aid for China and Japan. That
would leave all Asia TO the Com
munists.
The next step--through upris-
inEs Of local communist parties
would be Latin America. That
would make US and Canada two
little islands Of capitalism In a
completely communist world.
DO YOU think we'd survive lone

NARROW Says Peace With Rnssia l.
Dependent On Ending OF Distrust
NARROW

at least N the form We have
now-tllat way
But suppose We reached a pom
Of talking real peaca with RUS
STA, question would arise.
Could there be real peace with
Russia so long as the communist
parties within this and other
countries survived7
They act as agents Of Moscow
row and, uriess son1e agreement
was reached with Russia about
them, they'd certainly continue
TO act as Soviet agents, stirring
up trouble. waiting for a rsvotu-
tor 70 take over.
And Russia could hardly De
expected to turn her back on
those other communist parties.
Why
Because that would leave Rus
STA surrounded by capitalistc
states, without any hope that
Some day, through internal up
heavals, communists inside those
countries would come to power.
It would mean, in a way, a.
bsndoning hope for world COM
rhunisnn. But the communist
leaders Of Russia believe west
efn capitalism will collapse and
there will be world communism.
They hive by trat belief.
From the beginning Russia has
distrusted the western world be.
cause it looks upon communism
and Capitalism as mortal enc
mics. And Lenin, who set I'D
communism in Russia, taught
that Capitalism can't be wiped
out except by world revolution.
II the cspitalstic democracies,
through U. S. help, grow strong
again In western Europe-a n d
particularly If they keep western
Germany under their wing-Rus-
STA knows they are always DO
tensial allies Of the U. S. in any
war with Russia.
And Russia, whose philosophy
Is to wipe out capitalism, fears
the danger Of war from strong
capitalistic. countries If a crisis
arises In the future.
All this doesn't mean Russia
wants TO 60 TO war now. Time
Is on her side. the communists
think.
They are banking on a world
depression to set off collapses
and revolutions and win for her
easily what she might not be
able to win In a shooting war
now.
Meanwhile. within every coun-
try. the local communist parties
hardening hope for world com.
will be trying 70 push for revo.
luton.
With that in rlind. how do we
work out psacef
