MILLENNIUM:
Very Unfunny

When a radio comedian backs off,
from laughs, the event rates in news
value with the man-bites-dog item.
But there's method-about SIG, 900
worth )weekly-in Arthur Godfrey's
madness. Godfrey is the guy who
has ordered his musicians not to
laugh at any of his jokes.
THE RED-HEADED radio comic
explains wistfully that his musi.
clans used to laugh at his jokes,
sing with him and ''have all kinds
of fun" But that's all over now,
Godfrey says.
He adds that union rules provide
that if his musicians laugh at his
jokes, or join him in songs, they
will come under an additional union,
the American Federation of Radio
Artists, And that, says Godfrey,
would mean an extra cost of $500 to
5000 a week for each musician.
His men would sing choruses and
they'd kid each other, the comedian
says, but now ''if they open their
mouths to sing they come under
AFRA's jurisdiction. That adds
the extra salary"

NEW LIGHT:
From, Isaiah

New light and Interpretation may
be thrown on the Old Testament by
discovery of the complete scroll of
the Prophet Isaiah. All 66 chapters
of the book, with only few portions
missing, have been found.
One of the most dramatic Biblical
discoveries of all time, the scroll
was brought to light recently when
four of the oldest Hebrew manu-
scripts thus far known were found
in a cave near the northern end of
the Dead Sea.
Scholars date the Isaiah scroll as
early Maccabean, or second CEN
tury B. c., which would make it
the oldest Biblical document yet to
be discovered intact.
THE DISCOVERY of a complete
Isaiah scroll, dating back a thou
sand years before the oldest one
known, promises scholars an oppor-
tunity to seek new meaning from
the Bible, and to determine by COM
parison the extent that errors may
have found their way into Biblical
manuscripts with the passage of
time.
Bible scholars point out that the
Book of Isaiah, like all of the Bible,
came down to us as the result OF
many copyings by scribes who
would make additional scrolls as
the old ones wore out

WELCOME:
Infant Res

For hours the solemn-faced con-
stable had kept his vigil in the chill
of the November night. Impassive
in the fact of the huge throngs that
pushed against the gates he guard
ed, he waited for the word.
At last he saw royal page,
garbed in blue, walk stiff1y from
palace doorway. The page strobe to
the constable's side, bent over and
spoke in a low voice.
THE CONSTABLE'S face lighted,
he walked quickly to the iron railing
against which the crowd was dense
ly packed and declared exultantly:
"It's a boy!" Then throwing his
head back, he shouted: "A prince
has been born"
To Princess Elizabeth, heir-appar-
ent to the throne of England, and her
consort, Prince Philip, Duke of Ed
inburgh, had been born a son. A
prince by special royal decree of
King George vi issued several days
before the birth of the child. Their
young prince was born just six days
short of the royal couples wedding
anniversary, November 20.
THE NEWS that Elizabeth's child
was a son told the usually stolid
Londoners what they wanted to hear
that the royal heir was child
who might someday be their king.
Into world of crisis and unrest,
ali age Of dwindling empire for
Britain, was born princeling whose
| future as a potential ruler is fraught
with inponderables.
Both he and his mother would be
cut off the line of succession to the
throne should son be born to the
king and queen; monarchial gov
ernments, even of the benevolent
type, are fading from the world
scene; the contracting empires di-
menSions are subject to speculation,
but even were these things non-
existent, there is the last and great
est imponderable of them all-the
atomic bomb.

PRIORITY:
For Farmers

The man with the hoe put the ''X''
where it counted November 2, and,
as result, Americas farmers are
to reap share of President Tru-
mans smashing victory at the polls.
Even now, administration chiefs
are moving to give the nations
farmers top priority. over labor in
any legislative program coming up
for action by the next congress.
THE FARMERS reward is to
come immediately-not in the fu-
ture-and the outlook is that labor
may have to stand behind the farm
er when awards for a part in Pres
ident Truman's triumph are to be
handed out in a legislative program.
Best friend Of the farmers when
the plums are to be passed around
is Secretary of Agriculture Charles
Brannan. No doubter of where cred
1t for Mr.. Truman's victory belongs,
Brannan already has assigned Louis
M. Bean, department economist and
election forecaster, to prepare
charts and graphs to show the Presi-
dent that he owes his election pri-
marily to the farmers.
THAT ISN'T all that will be done
to insure the farmers a fair return
on their investment in Mr.. Truman,
for top level planners are drafting
a new flexible" price support pro-
gram to 60 into effect early in 1949,
instead of 1850, as would have been
the case under the Republican Aiken
farm bill.
Add to this the fact that Senator

Missing Link?

Anthropologists appear to have
turned up another missing link"
in the evolution of man.
The latest find, discovered in an
ancient Transvaal cave in South
Africa, may provide a clue to the
earliest known of mans ancestors.
The bones of this prehistoric crea-
ture, who may have lived million
years ago, indicate he might have
been a "man-ape" who carried
weapons and built dres.

PRESSURE:
Polite mo-

blockade of the ex-Reich capital.
The Big Three Western powers still
blamed Russia for continuation OF
the crisis through perpetuating the
blockade, and President Harry Tru-
man had given emphatic evidence
that he planned no further discus
sionS with Russia on the subject
until the blockade was lifted.
Following his return from Flori-
d.; vacation, the President went into
q fun-dress review of American
foreign policy with Secretary of
State Marshall and w. AvereQ Har-
riman, U. S. ambassador-at-large
in Europe.
The gravity with which United
Nations leaders viewed the Berlin
situation was evidenced in the ef-
forts of U. N. Secretary General
Trygve Lie, and H. v. Evatt, gen.
eral assembly president.
THESE TWO made urgent ap-
peal to chief executives of the four
big powers-going over the heads of
these nations U. N. delegations to
do soto bring the Berlin dispute to
an end and thus bring about world
peace.
This appeal was without avail.
The United States, France and Eng
land said no." politely but firmly.
They declared the issue must re-
main in the hands of the, U. N. Sc
curity council until the Russian
blockade is lifted. Russia reacted as
usual, blaming the Western powers
for the Stalemate.
Evatt and Lie argued that the dis
pute cannot be settled within the
cramped confines of the security
council and should be aired in the
wider fields of the general assem-
bly,.
AGGRAVATING the situation
was the coming winter with. its con-
sequent obstacles to the air lift.
The Russians appeared content to
wait out this phase of American aid
to Germany in the apparent convic-
tion, or hope, that bad weather
would so impair air lift efficacy as
to make it negative in the battle for
Germany.
If the situation were to be re-
solved by diplomatic means, Amer
lean thought and procedure on the
question would carry top weight
with the Big Three.
Under this setup, President Tru-
mans evident intention to spurn
discussion of the problem unless the
Berlin blockade were lifted, would
indicate the United States was pre-
pared to continue the ''cold war"
with the Russians, and to bet with
the elements that the air lift would
continue to be efficient and that
Premier Stain and his Communists
would have to come to terms in the
end.
PRESIDENT TRUMAN reiterat-
ed that he planned no American
mission of any sort to Moscow, and
that he and Secretary Marshall
were in accord on all questions
The President would stand for no
pressuring in discussion of the Ber-
lin question, even if it came from
top chieftains in the U. N.

A picture of carefree content
ment, President Truman accou-
tered himself in casual shirt while
tripping lightly through his post
election vacation at Key West,
Fla. He whiled away the drowsy

paused for a moment to turn
down a proposal for another Big

former agriculture secretary, took a
direct hand in supervising drafting
of the new measure and personally
will introduce it, and it becomes evil
dent the farmers happy place in the
administration sun is most assured.
BASIS of Brannan's contention
that farmers elected Mr.. Truman:
if it weren't for the farm states in
the agricultural west, the II indus
trial states on the Atlantic seab0ard
that voted for Governor Dewey
would have swung the election Re-
publican.
How will farmers fare under the
administration plan? Here's the
projected program:
To protect the farmer against an
ticipated crop price fall-offs, he
would be given a flexible price floor
that would protect growers, but
would not burden U. S. taxpayers
with an extended permanent SUBJ
sidy of farm surpluses.
PROVIDE adequate storage facili-
ties for farmers in corn and wheat
belts to prevent loss of bumper
crops.
Extend reclamation and soil con-
servatim benefits to more farm
lands and provide an increased rural
electrification for more farmers, this
to be sponsored and paid for by the
government.
This, then, is an extension of the
benefits which farmers may have
felt were imperiled in the Dewey
program, and for which they felt
they were voting when they cast
their ballots for President Truman
Arizona sun., 1948-12-03

gressive ideas set forth in Mr..
Dewey's speeches with the some
what pleistocene attitude Gas one
observer described it,, of some Of
the ex-candidates for house and
senate.
Witness the embarrassing situa-
tion in West Virginia, not to men,
tion Illinois. The New York COVER
nor simply couldn't stomach cross
ing the borders of West Virginia to
embrace its recalcitrant senator.
Chicago on the other hand is a
railway center and it was neces-
sary for Governor Dewey to change
trains there and ''in Rome do as
Romans do" "'He did, and endorsed
the Republican senatorial candidate
from Illinois But the citizens of
Illinois did not.
Had Mr.. Dewey been elected, and
had the Republican senator from
Illinois been reelected, the White
House would have faced difficulties,
among them the embarrassing par
adox: Sen. c. Wayland Brooks
opposed the Marshall plan which
Dewey strongly endorsed. Taking
that as a guide, it seems possible
that Brooks could have been count
ed upon to vote against Dewey
Dulles foreign policy as he did
against Mr.. Truman's.

Liberal Thought
GrowinQ in u. S.

The election, I believe, caused
thoughtful people to emerge with
one idea which the entire nation,
regardless of its politics, will have
to get used to. The thought is not
original with me, but it is one that
was mentioned by the only person
who did predict the election re-
suit Except the man I lost a bet
to-. Agriculture Economist Bean
said something like this:
The wave of liberal thought
which appeared to have
reached its zenith under R0Ose-
welt is still on the upswing.
Apparently the natural post
war reaction stopped it, but
didn't start it going in the OPP
pOsite direction.
Now some of you may not like
that thought, but it were well to
accustom oneself to the idea. Nor
need you expect the pendulum
ever to swing as far back as you
might wish. Personally, enjoy
riding behind a spanking team in
a buggy with the fringe on top"
and I wonder if we wouldn't all
be better off if the internal combuS-
tion engine had never been invent
ed. But l am willing to admit,
things being what they are, that we
have traffic lights and other an
noying regulations.
At any rate, when President Tru-
man takes the rostrum to deliver
his message in January, he will
look out on a congress which, his
friends claim, he fashioned in
large part with his own hand. Or
1 might say with his own sharp
tongue from a back platform.
Harry Truman went out and
fought tooth and nail, no holds
barred, for the kind of con-
gress he wanted. The people.
whether or not that was their
only intention, gave it to him.
And now as one somewhat cyni-
cal observer remarked to me:
"Harry's got what he wanted,
God help him."
He has to deliver now.
