Beer Flows Down.. The Gutter

RED BLUFFS, Calf. CP) - A river of beer-good beer too flowed toward the sea, alas.
 There were 124,000 gallons of it.
 A federal judge said the beer had to be dumped. So there it goes now, with many a gurgle and a sigh, out past the brewery and thence along many a sad mile to the sea.
 The beer flowed from the capa- cious vats of the United States Brewing Corporation plant at Red Bluff. The plant is in a receiver Ship-reorganization proceeding.
 The judge said the corporation probably would lose money trying to bottle all that beer during the reorganization. Besides it would hold up reorganization, so dump her boys.
 Charles Frizzell, the .brewmaS- ter, held wake as the taps were turned.

To Form Int'I
 Administration For Antarctic

WASHINGTON, (P)-The state department said the United States has opened talks with seven other nations aimed at some form of an international administration for the Antarctic.
 It said some form of interna- tionalization" would be the most effective solution of conflicting claims to territory in the frozen far south.
 Approaches already have been made to the governments of Ar gentina, Australia, Chile, France, New Zealand, Norway and the United Kingdom.
 London dispatches said Britain has agreed in principal to the pro- posal for an international regime. Argentina and Chile are reported Q have raised objections.
 The state department said talks so far have been informal. It add ed that until they are completed no international conference is planned to try for settlement of the various claims.
 The U. s. has not made any of- ficial claims to Antarctic territory.
 The state department has em- phasized it reserves all rights there. American explorers have taken the lead in scientific expe- ditions and have raised the Amer ican flag over wide areas.

Eggs Thrown At. Wallace In
 North Carolina

DURHAM, N. C., (P- Henry A. Wallace today moved further into North Carolina st a e which greeted him yesterday with a mixture of boo's and cheers.
 Wallace ended his first day south of the Mason-Dixon line at the home of a wealthy Negro here a few hours after his oratory was interrupted by egg hurling, pick cts and catcalls.
 The Progressive party Prasi- dential candidate addressed the state convention of his organiZa- tion to climax a day of whirlWind activity which included speeches earlier at Norfolk and Richmond, Va. Obviously pleased with his reception in Virginia, the former vice-president declared upon ar r-val here:
 'If what I saw in Virginia to- day, and what I see here is any criterion of what we'll get further on, then I'll be satisfied"
 Inhospitality flared for the first time shortly before Wa la C c reached the downtown armory where the Progressive convention was held. A group of men. mostly veterans, police said, marched into the meeting carrying critical banners.
 Send Wallace to Russia Wallace is a mockery of South ern Conventions'-"W the Hitler of Today" the banners read.
 A chair hit one of the banner carriers as the crowd estimated at 1900 whites and Nes ,OeS sang "The Battle Hymn of the Repub- lic."

A Missouri newspaper editor,
shortly after Bells resolution was
first introduced, claimed in ,an edi-
torial that the pension idea was
alright, but that the amount of his
pension, $50,OO0, seemed a little
high. He. like Mr.. Taft, felt that
5000 a year would be more
equitable sum. representative Bells
reply to that objection was that If
congress did fix the figure at $50,OOO,
taxes would shortly whittle it down
to $4,000 anyway.
Mr., Truman may have been
touched with what was intended as
solicitude on the part of his fellow
show-me's but ne did not feel the
matter was of immediate concern.
So far as the memory of this man
runneth not to the contrary, there
have never, in recent years, been
more than two co-surviving express
identS.
Until the death of President Cool
idge in 1888. he and Herbert Hoover
were co-survivorS. Coolidge had
earlier shared that position with
Chief Justice Taft until the latter's
death in 1880. Taft, who lived to
be 73 years old, co-Survived and
outlived Theodore Roosevelt and
Woodrow Wilson.

No one who has made even SUI
perficial study of the duties of the
president fails to realize how hard
a job it is. hard in the sense of
long hours, nervous strain, and
physical effort. Since the death of
Woodrow Wilson, brought on by his
herculean efforts during and after
World War I, much study has been
given to the problem of lessening
the burden of the chief executive.
Herbert Hoover has spoken of the
''vast and intolerable labor" of the
man who sits in the White House
for four years or more. Merriman

Many Men," commenting on the
complicated and burdensome"

u. S. Population
GroWth Studied

What size population do we want
for the United States? Or does it
make any difference?
The question is important enough
to merit continuing study by the
u. S. commerce department, and
the conclusions which have been
reached so far appear to have an
important bearing on the problem
of securing world peace.
Whatever the future of world
organization, the relative popula-
ton of the various nations will be
matter of profound importance
in determining the shape of things
| to come"
That statement was made in a
report by the national committee
on immigration policy, headed by
Earl G. Harrison, which is plump
ing for immigration increases in
this country.
In 1923 the commerce depart
ment estimated that population Of
at least 200 million and very prob
ably 300 million could be support
ed in the u. S. without lowering the
habitually high American stand
ard of living.
The Harrison group pointed out
that "even if we accept the lowest
figure, it is still IS millions
more than the peak which the
American population will reach in
$780,"
These are some of the assertions
the group made in special report
on immigration and population
| policy:
Population of the u. S. should be
159 million in 1870. That of Russia
should be 251 million-an extremely
sharp increase. Italy, Spain and
countries back of the iron curtain
also are expected to show ,popula-
tion gains.
For other nations: Population OF
Germany, Denmark and Finland
will remain approximately station
ary, while the population of Eng
land, France, Sweden and Switzer-
land is expected Ito hit a downward
trend.
By the end of this century-and
that's only about 81 years away, re-
member - the population of the
United States will be proportionate-
ly smaller in relation to Russia,
China and India than it is now
It means that the great, teeming
population masses of Asia are NOV
ing forward numerically with a
force and inexorability that is
bound to exert a profound effect on

TREATY.:
Mutual Hid

The cold freeze being turned on
Russia by the western nations
plummeted several more degrees
when Great Britain, France and
the three Benelux nations, after
long negotiations. agreed on a IT.
point mutual assistance pact.
THAT the U. S. is involved in
the agreement goes almost without
saying, for without American sane
tion and at least an implied willing
ness to help out nilitarily in the
event of aggression no western At
lantic treaty would be worth a
whereas" or even hereinafter"
Primary proposal in the plan
calls for pledge of mutual armed
assistance by the U. S., Canada
and the five western European ma
tions in case one or more of them
should be attacked.
SECONDLY, it provides that the
pact be left open to membership of
certain other nations. It calls, also,
for the setting up of military and
political boards-immediately after
the pact's signature and ratification
to make the treaty operate.
Containing II points in all, the
program of "agreed opinions" has
been presented to the U. S. and
Canada for consideration There
was no immediate reaction from
the two governments on the matter,
but it seemed logical to presume
that the idea for such a treaty had
received their prior blessings.
Although the pact in it's present
form refrains from designating a
fixed period of years for it's life, it
does recommend "a long dura-
ton" Actually, the five European
governments have been thinking
in terms of 50-year period, but
the decision on that is being left
to the last stage of negotiations.
RUSSIA as a nation-peaceful or
belligerent-is scrupulously ignored
in the document. Nowhere is any
mention made of the Soviet Union.
Nevertheless, the treaty itself
offers grim proof of the fact that
the western democratic nations
have seen fit to construct the nu-
cleus of great regional defensive
alliance against Russia and the
spread of communism.

Why Not ProUide
For Ex-Presidents?

When the pollsters were writing
off Harry Truman as merely an
'ex," come January 20, the pro-
ponents of the idea of providing for
former chiefs of the United States
were pointing out that Harry Tru-
man does not have the private
means that Franklin Roosevelt or
Herbert Hoover had.
There was some talk that Mr.
Truman might run for representa-
tive of his home state as President
John Quincy Adams did Adams
served II years in the house and.
if anything, increased his prestige
by doing so. But Mr.. Truman's fell
low Missourian, Rep. c. Jasper
Bell. had another idea in July of
1916 during the last session of the
10Th congress.
He proposed that the house and
senate enact a bill to provide an
annual pension of $50,000 for men
who had served as president of the
United States. Bell pointed out that
army officers, congressman, sena-
tors, cabinet members. heads of
government departments, and even
the most humble of federal work.
ers are provided with retirement
pay and he couldn't see why the
head of the federal government
should be Disseminated against in
this regard. He felt that in the long
run, retirement pay for chief ex-
ecutive would be q step toward bet
ter government.
