TRUMAN:
To The People

President Truman submitted his
arms-for-Europe proposal to the
people through the medium of the
golden jubilee convention of the
Veterans of Foreign Wars at
Miami.
DECLARING the armament pro-
posal was the price of peace" he
termed it this nations guarantee
against war and urged approval.
The President, contending that
peace with freedom and justice
n n OF be bought cheaply,"
urged that congress Immediately
approve the is billion-dollar arms
outlay.
He conceded the cost was "con-
Siderable" but added that it "rep-
resents an investment in security
that will be worth many times its
cost"
There were those in congress,
however, who were in noticeable dis
agreement with President Truman.
These included several congress
men who have been stalwart sup
porters of administration policy.
THE DISSENTERS argued that
it was pouring money down a rat
hole" to attempt to prevent war
or adequately arm the north Allan
tic pact signatories as the Truman
proposal planned. Others declared
the program was simply quitting
small arms in the hands of con-
stabulary of little nations" U. S.
military experts agreed that even
with the program operative as en-
visioned by the President, Russia
could overrun the continent in 60
days.
Claiming this, they added that
since the us. would have to pay
for World War III anyway if and
when it came, the wiser course
would be to build up national de-
tense and striking power to the
point where no surprise attack on
this nation could be successful.

POLIO::
Isolation Cut

Sufficient beds for polio patients
in the nations hospitals-a major
problem in fighting the malady-
appeared to be in sight as a re-
suit of a new approach to treat
ment and diagnosis in the early
stages of the disease.
THIS may be brought about
almost overnight and it can be done
without adding single bed in hos
pitfalls for acute cases, or training
another nurse. Too, it will save
millions of dollars in the cost of
treatment.
All this is declared possible be-
cause of a decision by public
health and medical authorities cut
ting the isolation period for early
polio to one week-longer only if
the fever lasts longer. Some states
have been isolating polio patients
for two weeks, some even for
three or four, but the average has
been two weeks.
The one week recommendation,
made by 20 medical authorities, is
part of a new guide for health Of
ficers of all the states. The guide
is being sent to local health authori-
ties, hospitals and doctors by the
various state health officers.
POLIO patients are kept isolated
when they are first i'll to prevent
spread of the disease, but medical
studies have concluded that the dis
ease is communicable only during
the first three or four days before
symptoms appear, and for two or
three days afterward.
So for safety, isolation, the ex-
perts said, is necessary for only a
week, or as long as there is a
fever.

ELECTRONICS:
Machine Has Brain

The parade of "mechanical
brain" devices appeared never
ending. The newest group-an auto
matte computer called Binac-is
smaller, cheaper, brighter than
the others.
1t can calculate 10000 times fast
er than a human being and does
problems rs times faster than more
complicated machines. The inven-
tors predicted it would usher in an
other industrial revolution in which
machines can take over many Jobs
now done by man.
BINAC, built to order for Northrop
aircraft company, was designed
especially for complicated engi-
neering problems such as in de-
signing new military aircraft and
guided missiles
But Binac was not the last word
in the field of mechanical "brains."
A larger, general-purpose type of
magic brain" called Univac was
under construction. Its first GUS
toner will be the U. S. census bu-
reau.
UN1VAC, it was said, could even
play chess, but only about as good
as an average player. not an ex-
pert. 1t is expected that the ma
chine also would be able to write
simple melodies and lyrics because
musical harmonics follow simple
rules.
With Univac, according to re-
ports, the American people will
find out a lot of things they didn't
know about themselves-that is,
statisticallY speaking.

ACID TEST:
Falls For Granny

The gambling grandmother of
Gardena, Calf, had a relapse.
MRS. SULA BELL STIMSON,
40, had been stricken with a COM
pelling urge to gamble. She
reached the stage where she forged
checks with which to obtain funds
for poker playing. She just couldn't
resist the yen to see what that next
card would be.
Last November she was brought
into court for her weakness and
was placed on probation for three
years. Last April she was arrested
again and a physician testified
she had undergone personality
change from normal housewife to
person afflicted with a craving
for gambling.
HE SAID doses of glutamic acid
had been used with some success
in similar cases, recommended
such treatment for Mrs. Stimson.
The court agreed, and she was re-
leased to the custody of her fam
lily with court orders to continue
the treatment.
It didn't work. The gambling
grandmother had succumbed again
to the fascination of the poker deck.
The acid test had failed.

CHINA REDS:
Trudinq Is Out

It had a familiar ring: "You
can't do business with the Chinese
Communists. Remember? "You
can't do business with Hitler" That
certainly was true, and according
to officials best informed on the
Chinese situation, it was equally
true of the Chinese Reds.
SLOWLY BUT SURELY, Amer
lean businessmen and officials
are finding out the truth of the
statement. In ever-increasing num-
bers they are pulling out of the
great centers in China. And with
them goes inevitably the prospect
for any important trade agree
ments between the United States
and Communist China.
Yet there was an annoying para
dox in the situation for the Chinese
friends of the Kremlin. For the
fact was that the Reds would have
to turn to the United States if
they were to obtain many things
they need to fill the gaping holes in
China's distraught economy.
THE American state department
and other U. S. officials are in
censed at the way American Off
Gals and private citizens have
been treated by the Communists in
China. They apparently have come
to the conclusion that nothing can
be accomplished by maintaining
large consulate stats in cities
where the Reds have taken over.
Weeks of trying to come to some
terms with the Communists show
nothing but failure.
To the initiate, this came as a
surprise to U. S. policy makers.
They had expected that as the Chi
nese Communists poured into
Shanghi and other coastal points
they would take a live-and-let-live
attitude toward the Americans.
They also figured that the Com
munists would have to do business
with the US, inasmuch as they
would have to look to the West
rather than Russia for imports to
meet China's economic needs.
But somehow or other it didn't
work out that way.

To neutralize the odor of the
stockyards district as the bus went
by it, a lady passenger bought a
bottle of lavender salts. She un-
corked the bottle one block away
from the district and kept it under
her nose until the bus passed the
section.
One morning as she rode along
she glanced out the window and
saw that it was time to uncork the
bottle. She did SO and held it to her
nose. AS the smell of stockyards
grew stronger she held the bottle
closer to her nose. When the bus
reached the heart of the stockyards
district a man across the aisle
shouted:
For Gods sake, lady, close that
bottle"

YUGOSLAVIA:
War Clouds

Was the United States ready to
60 to war on behalf of Yugoslavia?
That was a paramount question
as the hard-boiled struggle between
Yugoslavia and Russia reached the
threat-of-war stage. Diplomats pom
dered the question: What would the
United States do if Stain sent the
Soviet army to overthrow Marshal
Tito's regime in Yugoslavia?
BRITISH and American diplo-
mats, however, ruled out the likeli-
hood of a shooting war. They regard
ed Moscow's threat to take more
effective measures" in Yugoslavia
as only a part of the war of nerves.
British newspapers took a differ
ent view. They regarded the Soviet
note as the worst threat of war
since 1885,"
No one outside the Kremlin
could know for sure what was COM
ing next. But the threat that began
IA months ago to upset Tito when
the Cominform read him out of the
Communists party developed long
ago into frequent shootings along
the satellite borders.
Diplomats in Belgrade frankly
were worried. AS an example of
the jittery situation, one embassy
thought it had an inside tip on an
Invasion date.
THE QUESTION of American in
volvement was not quite as ac-
ademic as it might appear. With
the issue squarely joined between
Communism and the west, and
with the us. serving as the arsen-
al of the west, involvement as a
result of any warlike Kremlin move
was an ever-present possibility.

EXCISE TAX:
Not This Yeur

All hope for any reduction this
year of federal excise taxes ap-
peared doomed as congress shut
the door on the issue. Excise taxes
are collected on such items as
furs, jewelry, luggage, cosmetics,
transportation and telephone bills.
CHAIRMAN DOUGHTON 3D.,
MO- of the tax-writing house
ways and means committee issued
statement saying that he sees no
prospect for a reduction in these
the federal deficit threat of more
than five billion dollars in the cur
rent fiscal year.
To clarity the subject for con-
sumers, he added:
II believe it is important to
make this clear so that consumers
will not postpone the purchase of
goods subject to tax in the hope
of an imm ediate reduction"
BUT HE HELD out hope of tax
reliefs in the future. He said he had
requested the congressional staff
Of tax experts to begin now a study
Of possible tax revisions and re-
auctions for the consideration of
congress next year. There was a
hint, however, that if present ex-
cises are lowered, some other
taxes may be increased-unless
federal expenditures are reduced.
There remained a middle course,
Doughton went on, which might
provide a reasonable reduction in
government expenditures, to re-
quire some increase in taxes where
the increase can be borne without
disturbing the economy, and to pro-
vide for a reduction in those taxes
which are Gripping enterprise and
interfering with business expansion.

Sussex Men Invent
New Poultry Feeder
loOntInusd trom aist paEs1


Mr.. Doty near Milton since Febru-
airy and has successfully fed 10000
broilers by electricity with very
little labor and small cost for cleo
trio. However, Mr.. Doty states
that his greatest gain is not in la
Dor saved, but is in the amount of
feed saved.
This unit has been inspected by
leading poultrymen, experimental
station personnel, feed dealers.
hatcherymen, and engineers, and
has been proclaimed one of the
most important developments in
the poultry industry since the
adoption of the automatic electric
watering system.
AS far as is known, this is the
first automatic poultry feeder of
itsN kind in the world. These men
Investigated all standard practices
/ of moving poultry feed from one
/ area to another and found that they
were not good enough for their
need. Then, quite by accident. they
discovered that they could move
large quantities of feed in an in
closed tube by drawing a link chain
through it. BY so doing. they were
able to prevent the feed from be-
coming contaminated, could de-
posite it in any standard poultry
trough, could carry feed through
houses which were built with the
grade, and could regulate the
amount of feed for either baby
chicks or large birds.
One very important change ex-
pected to come to the broi1er in.
dustry, after the introduction o.
these Automatic Feeders, is bull
feeding with it's saving of from
$500 to $1,000 per ton. Severa
companies have already indicated
their interest from that standpoint
