What is your opinion-do you

Whether it involved secret data

that care should be taken to keep

Senator Mcmahon said that SCI

agree that "oaths of allegiance to

that such oaths should give as

IS THE AIR FORCE ENOUGH?

One of the liveliest and most fortnight !
contributions to the national defense contro-
versy appeared in the Saturday Evening
Post for June 25th. Written by Rear Ad-
miral D. v. Gallery, and titled "An Admiral
Talks Back To The Airmen," it is power
fully reasoned refutation of the theory that
we can safely base our whole defense plans
on long-range bombers and the A-bomb, and
largely eliminate such costly services as the
Navy and the Army ground forces. Admiral
Gallery holds that the atomic blitz rs des-
peration concept which holds good only for
a war of the United States versus the rest of
the world. 1t is an all-out business which
can't stop at geographical or political boun-
daries." The reasoning here is simple. If
we should go to war with Russia, the So
viet'S first move would naturally be to spread
out all over Europe. Red forces would be in
control in France and Italy as well as behind
the iron curtain. In that event, asks the
Admiral, "Do we blitz Paris, Rome and
BrusselS?" If we did, he thinks, we would
advance the cause of communism imneas-
urably, and 'we might win the war in 80
days and lose the peace for the next 300
years" The engaging arguments OF Air
Force partisanS have pretty well Obscured
this phase of the problem. But it is point
which is uppermost in the minds of many
experience. General Omar Bradley, whom
many consider to be one of the great combat
commanders Of history, has said However
crippling air attack can be, am convinced
beyond any reasonable doubt that should this
nation be forced into still another conflict,
we shall once more be forced to gain the
inevitable victory over dead bodies-those
of our soldiers on the ground. =. Ultimately
a war between nations is reduced to one man
defending his land while another tries to in
wade it." The whole history of war amounts
to a factual endorsement of this idea. The
colossal air pounding Germany took in the
last war did not bring her to her knees. 1t
did not destroy her ability to make war,
which was the goal of strategic bombing.
Indeed, toward the end, the strategic bomb
ing plan was largely abandoned, and the
Allied air forces were devoted to tactical
bombing of military Objectives, as prepa-
ration for invasion by sea-supported ground
troops. Admiral Gallery touches on an ex-
tremely important point when he observes
that the Air Force philosophy has danger
Gus popular appeal simply because sit sweeps
all the unpleasant facts of war under the rug
and promises easy victory without much
fighting" Any nation would like to win &
great war with small expenditure of men
money and machines. No nation ever has.

SOCIALISM BRINGS
DISILLUSIONMENT

Socialism has brought good deal of dis
illusionment in Britain. The coal mines are
an especially apt example. Absenteeism is
as frequent and disputes as great as under
private management. The slight increase in
output per man-Shift is attributed to pro-
gresS that has been made in copying Ameri-
can production methods, rather than any in
crease in worker morale. Naturalization,
to the ordinary miner down in the pit, has
always meant that the industry would be-
come his own. Now the miners claim it is
not nearly the same thing to discover it is
the nations industry. In fact, they claim that
the old private owner was always present
to be conferred With-he was not the help
less agent of remote and SoulleSS board in
London. Can anyone believe that American
coal miners would have made such remark
able progress in bettering their lot if we had
had a sOcialized industry? Under private
enterprise, the mine union has grown enor-
mOusly powerful. Management is always
present to confer with union heads over
wages, working conditions, and any other
controversial point. The result is that the
average American coal miner earns some
SIS week, and may earn 500 and upwards
Living standards in our typical mining
towns would seem unbelievable to the British
miners. In Britain today such old-fashiOneC
ideas as enterprise, efficiency, and thrift arr
at dangerous discount. The British com
munity has come to put other economic anC
social ideals long way ahead of prOductiv
ity. That always happens when socialist anC
communist ideOlOgies take over. All the peO
pie become pOorer-and the workers become
poorest of ALL

CUTTING TWO WAYS

According to Washington reports, Con-
gress is looking at much proposed new legis-
lation with wary and critical eye. This is
largely the result of the decline in business
activity and national income, coupled with
the attendant rise in unemployment Most
of the lawmakers seem more eager than in
the past to refrain from passing measures
which might further rock the economic boat.
this category, would nearly double the pres
ent minimum wage, would eliminate certain
exceptions to the law which have been in eff
feet for years, and would place other re-
strictiOns on both employer and employee
Specifically, the measure would seem sure
to improve the lot of the lowest-paid work.
ers. Actually, there is good reason for be-
lieving that it would do just the opposite.
For the most part, the minimum wage di-
rectly affects only the unSkilled, the marginal
worker, the beginner, and the part-time
worker The value of these workers to the
employer is very limited. If the law required
him to pay them more than their productive
worth, he would necessarily employ as few
of them as possible This would be particu-
larly noticeable in enterprises such as re-
failing, which offer many opportunities for
beginners and occasional workers. The typi-
cal retailer really has to watch the pennies
now if he is to make both ends meet. The
concensus of exports in the field is that too
high minimum wage, along with the other
restrictions, would lead to widespread lay
offs. Unwise social legislation can be a two.
edged sword, that will hurt those it is de-
signed to help.

large. Well when 1 was Assistant Secretary of
Labor in 1917-1919, normal unemployment was then
officially stated as 25OOOOO This included the sick
and those even temporarily laid off. Yet in those
years the total business of the country was less
than half what it is today.
The above facts show that until 100000

worry about Remember that since 1917 the total
number of employed has jumped from r25.O0O,O00 to

At a meeting of the Board of

ago Professor Robert Shilling was
elected Superintendent of Milford
Schools, under the new school code.
At that time Mr.. Shilling declined
the election. When the offer was
made to him to come to Milford he
had already accepted position in
the State of North Carolina, and
this was the cause of his refusal
to accept the local position. A few
days ago circumstances made it so
that he was at liberty to accept the
offer of the local board and he i'm
mediately got in touch with them.
He was employed. He has been
principal of the Milford Schools

ing is we'll qualified for the posi-
tion he will occupy here. He was
formerly superintendent of Kent

was compelled to give up about g

him at that time. Mr.. Shilling wa:
