BUG To Aid College
Grads In Job Hunt
BY d'AIessio

COLUMBUS-On April 5, repre-
sentatives Of 81 of the Bureau of
Unemployment Compensation's To-
cal offices will begin taking job ap-
plications of college students, both
veteran and non-veteran, under
new statewide job development
program, Frank J. Collopy, BUG
administrator, said today.
The program is being carried
through by the Ohio State Employ
ment Service, a BUG division, in
cooperation with the Veterans EN-
ployment Service. 1t is specifical-
ly designed to aid college place
ment agencies to find jobs for
graduates and drop-outs under in
creasingly competitive conditions.
A recent Veterans Employment
Service survey highlighted the
need for stepped-up college
placement program when it reveal
ed that the number of Ohio veter-
an graduates alone would double
within the next two years. The
survey showed that more than
$4,000 veterans were enrolled in
Ohio colleges under the CT Bill of
Rights as of December, 1947. Col
lege officials estimate that veter-
ans will make up about 81 percent
of the 1850 graduating class.
Registration of college seniors
and other interested students is ex-
pected to be completed in AZ Ohio
colleges and universities by Apri
"a. The registration will be hand
led by the Employment Service
representatives in personal inter
views right on the various college
campuses.
In policy statement on the new
college placement program, Col
lopy stressed the fact that the pro
grams primary objective was K
assist veterans "to find job will
future" However, he said, non
veteran graduates "will be givel
the same consideration
"Vast sums Of money have beer
spent in training the veterans wh'
will complete their education with
in the next few years." he said
eve believe that everything pos
sible should be done to assist thes
men and women to find jobs-t
realize a return on this investmen
of time, money and effort"
To bring the qualifications o
available college graduates to tn
attention of prospective employers
the Ohio State Employment Ser
vice representatives are expecte'
to make some 10000 employer cor
facts this year throughout tn
state. Specific information on tn
] various job applicants will be mad
available to every employer in tn
market for professional and tech
! nical specialists.
The applications taken by co

On the Record
Neither Russian Nor u. S. General Staff
Can Plan How to Win Against Other

Russia certainly could overrun
Europe and exterminate non Com
munists. But just what good that
would do to her war effort is in
comprehensive. The essence of
successful war is organization. But
Communist revolutions don't organ
ize countries - they disorganize
them. Every state Russia overran,
therefore, would be a liability.
Still Would Come to Grips.
And still the U. s. S. r. would
have to defeat the United States or
the United States would be COM
PEELED to defeat the u. s. s. r. This
could not be done by bombing cities.
Armies would have to come to grips,
and just how they would do that
neither the Russian nor the Amer1-
can general staff can, in my opin-
ion, tell even itself. It certainly
would not be q short war, but .
long one And what social develop
ments would occur In either coun-
try during that war, no government
on earth today can foresee with
confidence. The most likely de-
velopment would be world anarchy
in which more people would die at
the hands OF numbering. pillaging
gangs than from organized soldiery
and bombs. There is such . thing
as mass insanity.
Neither Russia nor the United
States could organize what would
be left of the world after such .
war. Apart from the physical de-
struction, involving this time much
of organic life, the population the
victors would have to deal with
would be crazed mobs. And crazed
mobs establish neither communism
nor any other form Of organized
society.
This Is what needs to be said in
the United Nations, in addition to
the advancement Of . plan for the
abolition of war-which has become
an obsolete means Of accomplishing
any conceivable political purpose.
Today war itself contradicts Clause
WITT. On the issue Of war every,
single theology is utterly failing the
people. The danger to all states.
equally, is nihilism-the negation of
all ideologies.

This Changing World
Kremlin, Beaten in Italian Election,
Expected to Show Hand in Few Weeks

litical conditions in those countries
are better known to the rank and
file Of italian people than they are to
those farther removed from the
iron curtain. The italian people
became quickly aware that Red
dictatorship would be far worse than
Mussolinis.
f0 The Italians are overwhelm-
ingly religious and the Vatican,
through the Catholic clergy In italy,
went all out to show what would
happen to religion If the Commu-
nists came to power.
90 The economic actions Of the
American Government, which rush.
ed hundreds of millions Of dollars
worth OF food and other supplies
to prove to the Italian people that.
while the Communists were making
promises and keeping them only
with respect to regular party MEM
bers, America was In q position to
deliver even more than 1t promised.
"a Finally, according to qualified
observers on the spot, what actually
turned the Communist tide was the
fact that the American Government
rushed to Italy many trainloads Of
military equipment-tanks, planes,
machine guns and millions of
rounds of ammunition-to provide
the legitimate government Of Italy
with the means to resist military
pressure from the Communist Party.
Efficient Army Force.
While last year the military and
police force appeared powerless to
cope with the well-organized BAR
tisans, in the last few months the
Italian Army has become-thanks to
American help-an efficient force
ready to cope with any internal out
breaks.
When italian voters saw with
their own eyes that they could rely
on an efficient police force against
the Communists, they no longer
feared terrorism and cast their
votes in accordance with their own
wishes and beliefs.
The Western Allies diplomatic
coup in promising the return of
Trieste to Italian sovereignty, of
course, played a role in the election.
So did the millions of letters and
kilograms from private American
citizens to friends and relatives in
Italy, urging them to repudiate
Moscow's domination. These two
factors contributed to q limited ex-
tent to the defeat Of Togliatti's
gang.
But while the italian returns
have caused rejoicing and q wave
OF optimism in the western world,
there still is q good deal of concern
over what Soviet reaction to this
signal defeat will be. Moscow does
not act hastily. 1t lost the first
round in Italy in the same way that
it lost in Hungary, when the Com
munists were defeated in an election
which was for the most part free.
In Hungary 1t used force to over
throw the results OF the election.

will show its hand in Italy.

consider the temper Of the people.
Therein lies their eternal danger to
peace, There was absolutely no war
spirit In Italy in May, 1910. But
Mussolini had decided, and that was
suff1cient to carry the country to
war in June. Hitler's general staf1
was 80 opposed to war that its key
personalities resigned in 1888. He
himself did not want a two-front
war. But he had an ally at his
back who was gathering up his own
victories, and revealing thoroughly
unreliable features. So he had to
fight in two directions.
All war Is insane, but SO are some
men, and absolute power has never
been conducive to sanity.
Allies Are Unreliable.
In the present situation, how
ever, neither Russia nor the United
States has any reliable allies. In
actual war Russias east European
satellites would be a liability. Rus
sia has only their governments
miserable set of lackeys whom the
Russian leaders themselves must
thoroughly despise. Russia does not
have their peoples. In case of war
there would be danger to the Rus
SLAMS of disintegration from Gdynia
to Trieste. Anarchy might well
spread to Russia itself, where 1t Is
endemic anyhow.
On the other hand, there are
enough Communists in Western Eu-
rope to cripple an American war
effort. So both belligerents would
have enemies within their lines. Nor
would any European government, IN
a showdown, invite either belligerent
to make its country battle-ground.
Whoever struck first anywhere
would be regarded as the enemy by
the overwhelming masses Of the
people.

The Italian electorate acted
exactly as Hungarian and Czech
voters did when they were per-
mitted to vote freely. Both Hungary
and Czechoslovakia succumbed after
free elections by a coup d'etat OF the
minority in the government.
The results of the Italian election
preclude the participation OF Com
munists In the new Rome govern
ment. Thus there is no great pros
pect OF a repetition Of what hap
pened in Budapest and Prague.
Danger Still Exists.
The danger that the Communists
will start a civil war in Italy, in
order to establish a peoples soviet
republic in the north,a still exists,
however. 1t is true that the voting
in the principal cities in that area
Milan, Bologna and Turin-has
gone in favor of the Christian DEM
ocrats. This popular expression does
not mean, however, that the Parti-
san army, estimated at some 150,-
600 men,, will not be called into

The decision on whether to under

do so, rests entirely with the Krem-

in Europe which cannot be pieced
