Spring Brings Confusion
IN WASHINGTON


CPRING has turned Washington
~ into a riot of color. The crowded
capital goes about its business as
usual; the annual cherry blossom
festival drew its usual thousands
along the tidal basin, and the social
and diplomatic set stage their usual
teas and receptions. But the ten
sion and the gravity are written on
the faces of the people on the crowd
ed streets. The city, from Capitol
Hill to the Potomac, is engulfed in
eddies and swirling cross-currents Of
conflicting opinions and emotions.
On any subject you can get a diff
ferent answer from a different view
point. The confusion in an election
year ordinarily is enough to befuddle
the layman seeking the solid SUBJ
stance Of truth from the maze of po-
itical talk-talk from a dozen candi-
dates. But add to it the world crisis
and the bewildering mass of world
economics and international diplo-
macy, of reversed foreign policies,
and the situation seems almost
chaotic and hopeless.
As a matter of fact, the calmest,
most serene oasis in the weller of
confusion, where there is an at
mosphere of detachment by COM
parison, is at 1000 Pennsylvania
avenue. It's restful place, any
way, the White House. And there
President Truman, his grey hair
greyer, his lined face more deeply
etched, but tanned and alert, is
seemingly tranquil amid the do
nestle and foreign buffetings.
''No. I'm not happy about it. But
it was something that had to be
said" That was his observation to
reporters on his mobilization speech
and it explains his philosophy. He
has done about everything that could
be done to bring about his defeat
at the elections and he is not happy
about it.
Palestine, Trieste, the Marshall
plan, the Truman doctrine, selective
service, universal military training,
civil rights and the southern revolt,
tax reduction vetoes and perhaps in
evitable war - all have brought
blame and censure down upon his
head.
Whether he was right or wrong,
that took courage in an election
year.
Consensus among observers here
is that congress eventually will 60
about to make this country militar-
lily stronghold selective service will
be passed (there is some doubt about
universal military training)-t h t
more and more millions will go for
national defense-that foreign policy
has jelled into military as well as
economic defense of western Eu-
rope to stem the tide of communism
that the Marshall plan is well on
the way to reality-that the world
crisis is real and serious and that
while war is not inevitable it is mot
remote"

Lands of the Creeks and Semi
noles were thrown open to home
steaders on April %, 1889, and 1OO,-
600 people raced into Oklahoma.
The entire region was settled almost
within day. Towns were laid out
and plows bit into the sod before
the sun went down. There was no
government until May, 1890, when
an act passed by congress created
the Territory of Oklahoma. The first
governor was George w. Steele and
the first legislature met at Guthrie
on August 81, 1890. The eastern part
Of the area remained Indian terri

cited include $50 million bushels Of

UNIQUE CAPITOL Although
Oklahoma didn't know it at the
time, its state capitol was erect
ed over one of the largest oil pools
in the state. Consequently the
capitol building now is surround
ed by oil wells. They may not add
to the dignity Of the capitol and
other state buildings but they do
lend an unique touch to Oklaho-
mas seat of government.
states area. 1t is the states boast
that almost any crop grown in
America can be grown in Okla
homa. Food for nation springs
from its soil-the same soil that
covers lakes of petroleum and beds
of precious minerals.
Oklahoma is proud of its youth
and the states educational status
ranks high in the nation. In 1916
Oklahoma's 3,464 elementary schools
and 849 high schools had an enroll
ment of 517,O70, with more than
10000 additional students in the
states 40 universities and colleges.
What other states have taken a
century, or two centuries, or even
more, to do, Oklahoma has done in
little more than half a century.
Its skyscrapers stand in con-
trast to tepees. Modern and
thriving, it still is proud of 10
gallon hats and spurs, Indian
blankets and mOccasins, and the
only herd of longhOrn cattle
left.
Oklahoma is ready for the future
and whatever progress the world
may offer. Whatever the goal, it
expects to get there sooner" than
