AMAZON:
Ah, Wilderness

The Amazon jungle Of South
America, earth's last great wild
rness to retain unexpected mys.
teries, has become the target for
modern science which intends to
probe it's secrets.
This dense and trackles area,
nearly four million square miles,
will be studied by experts from
the United Ma ons education, sci.
entific and cultural organization
CUNESCO).
They hope to collect information
that will aid not only in develop
ing this vast, unexplored region
but also in improving living condl"
tons in other tropical areas.
Scientists plan to establish an
international institute of the Hy.
lean (forest) Amazon at Man.
aus, Brazil, in the center Of the
Amazon forests. The institute il
being established in cooperation
with Brazil, Colombia, Bolivia,
E Gu Or, Peru, Venezuela, the
United States and the mother coun-
tries of the three Guianas, France,
England and the Netherlands.
Participating CT entists will
gather at lingo Maria, Peru, on
April 80, in the area where the
mighty Amazon, called the worlds
greatest river, rises. From there
they will set out northeastward to
Quitos, Peru.
UNESCO already has appropri-
ated 100000 for the project, but
continuing financial support is ex--
pected to come from the inter-
ested countries.

REACTIONS:
Divided

What are the true facts?, Just how
potentially lethal is the situation
with regard to Russia?
Senators and representative were
asking those questions after Presi-
dent Humans '1et's get strong
message. Many of them were de-
handing answers before they would
consent to 60 ahead with any legis-
lation endorsing a military draft or
UNIT.
Congress was divided, but the split
was not along party lines. 1t re-
Elected isolationism, discomfort with
the Truman foreign policy and in
some cases an almost unhealthy re-
spect for Russia's power in Europe.
Greatest fear seemed to be that
conditions in Europe, as precipi-
tated by Soviet actions, may get
out of hand suddenly. despite the
efforts of Russia or any other ma
ton to prevent such a development.
Best opinion holds that. while Rus
STA is not now seeking war, the
Communists have created a kind of
Frankenstein monster in Europe
that at any moment could plunge
out of control and involve the world
in another conflict. Secretary of
State Marshall is said to feel this
way:
The Soviets are motivated by a
sense Of urgency to act before the
European recovery program begins

Rabbits:
Meat Supply

There is one vast source Of meat
maybe an inexhaustible one-that
the us. public might have to con-
slider seriously if beef and pork be-
come as scarce and expensive as it
is predicted they will:
Rabbits.
That is a department Of agricul.
ture idea. The department sug-
gested that the American people
take up the raising of rabbits as
supplementary source Of meat to exc
out the usual protein fare, destined
to become more scarce and costly.
National rabbit week, which was
observed during the week following
Easter, would be "a good time" for
families to plan to produce ''year
round supply of this white, deli
cately favored, nutritious meat,
comparable to breast of chicken
the department limited.
What does one need to begin rails
ing rabbits? Just rabbits.
ALI it takes is a buck and few
does, reported Charles E. Kellogg,
in charge of the Department. rab-
bit research. Although it generally
is considered thoughtful to provide
the Dummies with hutch in the back
yard.
Another point in favor Of raising
rabbits is this: They will eat surplus
garden vegetables, lawn clippings,
stale bread and cooked potatoes.

W estern Pact

Lending force. to Mr.. Truman's
scattering of the seeds of foreign
policy was the fact that, an hour
before he delivered his pronounce
ment, the just-completed five-nation
western European pact for common
defense against attack had been an
nounced officially.
Under the treaty, Britain, France,
Belgium, Luxembourg and the Meth
erlands pledged one another military
aid in the event that any one of them
should be attacked
According to the new Truman
doctrine" the United States would
be the principal guarantor of this
five-power union. Without such a
guarantee of u. S. backing, the west
ern European treaty would be
meaningless.
By his declaration in support of
the western European pact Mr.. Tru-
man seemed to be guiding the U. S.
to point of departure from it's his
toric adherence to the diplomatic
enornity of refusing to engage in
"entangling alliances even at the
price of its own welfare.

FOOD WASTE:
Rats, Insects

Although the world is crying for
food, hundreds of thousands of tons
of American foodstuffs are spoiled
each year by the depredations Of
rats, mice and insects-and often by
the carelessness of some producers.
Food and drug administration Of
ficials say the amount of so-called
filthy food" they destroy every
year is enough to contribute very
substantially" to the hungry areas
Of the world.
'Filthy food" is the legal term
for food spoiled by contamination
of rats, mice, insects or other re-
pulsive foreign bodies It is the job
of the food and drug administration
to find and condemn filthy food in
the channels of interstate commerce
and to prosecute those responsible.
Since FDA's power to condemn
filthy foods at their destination was
taken away a year ago, officials
estimate that, as a result, 20 tons
of such food appears in retail outlets
every day.
Foods most commonly condemned
are: Cereal products, including
flour; all kinds of candy and sweets
Gnsects dote on it,; macaroni.
spaghetti and noodles; dairy prod
ucts Favored by maggots, ants and
beetles); egg products and frozen
fruits and vegetables.
FDA officials say that ignorance,
carelessness and greed invite TO-
dent and insects to spoil pure foods.
But, says George P. Larrick. an
assistant FDA commissioner. Food
producers are getting better and
better about cleanliness and santa
ton. Things are much better than
they were 10 years ago.

Expanding Colleges

BY 1850 American colleges and
universities will need additional
space equivalent to 1873 Empire
State buildings and several billion
dollars to pay for it, which is where
the taxpayers come in.
That is the present outlook for
higher education as reported by the
U. S. office of education. The re-
port, dealing with college and uni
versity building needs, is based on
a survey Of 1886 institutions.
Colleges and universities need an
additional 265 million square feet
of space to accommodate an ex-
pected 1850 enrolment Of 2,675, 900
students. A third of the increase
would be for student and faculty
housing needs.
Operating pretty much on a sar-
dine basis today. U. S. institutions
are handling 2,34O.000 students with
plants built for prewar gross peak
enrolment Of is millions. At 194S
building prices, the proposed space
increases would cost 2.65 billion doll
lars.

for limited draft, but he was less
inclined toward universal military
training. Senator Taft, Republican
presidential hopeful, indicated he
might fight the draft as well as the
UNIT proposal.
Meanwhile, Rep. Leo Allen (Rep.,
lid, chairman of the house rules
committee, was keeping the door
closed against letting UNIT Legisla-
ton reach the floor of the house.
1.-The Presidents message doesn't
change a thing" he said.
Barring a change of mind by Al
lens committee, about the only way
to get the UNIT bill before the house
is through a petition signed by 218
members.

CONVINCING

Closeted for so minutes with
Secretary of State Marshall, Sec
rotary of Defense FOrrestal and
Secretary of the Army Royal,
the senate armed services COM
mittee emerged from the confer
ence to throw its weight behind
President Truman's plea for quick
action to build up Americas mill
tary forces.
Sen. Chan Quincy (Rep., SD,
chairman of the committee, re-
ported that 10 of the groups Ii
members were convinced that
both limited draft and universal
military training have become an
"absolute necessity"
just what the three secretaries
told the armed services commit
tee was not disclosed, but it was
undeniably powerful information.

THE PRICE
Peace end Wur

esWe must be prepared to pay
the price of peace CIR assuredly
we shall Fay the price of war;"
Those words, spoken by President
Harry Truman to the U. S. con-
gress, could be the seeds of the first
genuine, effective foreign policy
this nation has had for half cen
tufy. - 81
Disregarding any political over
tones there might have been in the
Presidents speech, his address to
the Joint session Of congress re-
Elected the realization at the top
level of government that any sue
cessfu1 foreign policy must be based
on the fundamental concept of strik-
ing a balance between commitments
abroad and the national security
or strength at home available to
back up those commitments.
BY. definition, the term foreign
policy implies that any nation ex-
pressing such a policy possesses the
strengthen military forces and alli-
ances-to follow it consistently at all
times and to defend it just as con-
sistently in case of war.
In. that connection Mr.. Truman
specifically asked congress for
power to draft men to build armed
strength against the ruthless agrees
- 1G ~
He: asked also for prompt enact
ment of universal training legisla-
tion," indicating that the draft should
be only. temporary until universal
military training is giving the coun-
try the trained men it needs.
Finally, he sought swift passage
Of the 5.3-billion-dollar European
recovery, program - the Marshall
plan for economic recovery of west
ern European nations which is set
ting the Kremlin's teeth on edge.
Bluntly the President upbraided
Russia for making a travesty of
peace:
'sOne nation has not only refused
to cooperate in the establishment Of
just and honorable peace, but
even worse-has actively sought to
prevent it.
s'But that is not all. Since the
close of hostilities, the Soviet Union
and it's agents have destroyed the
independence and democratic char
acter of whole series of nations in
eastern and central Europe.
SIT is this ruthless course Of &C.
tion and the clear design to extend
1t to the remaining free nations OF
Europe that have brought about the
critical situation in Europe today"

to function and before the union Of
western European nations is firmly
established. Driven by this feeling
of urgency, the Soviets may not be
able to avert an incident which
would lead to shooting war.
But congressman were hard to
convince. Sen. Arthur Vandenberg
(Rep.. Mich.) was said to view with
some favor the Presidents request
Dickenson County herald. [volume] (Clintwood, Va.) 1939-195?, 1948-04-08
ABOUT FACE:
Espedience

To many persons it looked as
though the United States, in aban-
doning its support Of the Palestine
partition plan, had pulled "Pon-
titus Plate on the same scene
where the procurator of Judea had
washed his hands not quite 1000
years ago to sanction the Cruel
fixion.
In reversing it's role in the par
tition struggle, the U. S. proposed
that the Holy Land be made a
United Nations trusteeship, giving
Jews and Arabs chance to reach
agreement on their own concerning
the future of their country's gov
eminent.
Warren r. Austin, American dele
gate to the U.N., said that it was
obvious that partition could not be
carried out except by force, and
the us. consistently has demurred
against the idea of sending troops
to Palestine.
It was ironic that the American
statement withdrawing support from
the partition plan was undoubtedly
the death blow to that plan which
never would have been adopted by
the U.N. in the first place if it had
not been for American pressure and
influence.
ALI in all, the action was rather
unpretty piece of military and po-
ltical expedience. The US. did not
want to send troops to the Holy
Land because that would mean,
inevitably, that Russian troops would
appear on the scene also, with pos
sible embarrassing results.
But the greatest consideration was
the oil that lies in the Arabian
states of the Middle East. The us.
desperately needs that oil for its
navy and other armed force ma
chimes. To support the Jewish cause
actively in the partition fight would
have meant mourning the displeas-
ure of the Arab states, and that
might have meant that the flow
of Middle East oil would have been
cut off or drastically curtailed.
In view of the explosive uneasiness
abroad, u. S. policy-makers con-
Guided that this nation literally
could not afford to play the game.
Thus, U. S. responsibility in the
matter was ended-politically If not
morally. But in Palestine forces
were building up for a battle to
the death between Arabs and Jews
to determine which would gain pos
session of all or part of the Holy
Land.
