With Stag Ratio
1t AU-Tme High
Bv Betty Beale

Any woman who thinks the
party ratio of two stays to every
girl is just right is all wrong.
Thirty-five to one is infinitely
superior! In fact, it's terrific!

room on the first floor and in
the dining room below.
Competition wasn't too keen.
Mrs. George Mesta. invited as
chairman of the ball, stayed on
the first floor and this reporter
(who wangled an invitation on
general principles) remained in
the dining room. The hosts kept
insisting the program girls of the
ball were picketing outside, but
that was sheer boasting-there
was nary a one in sight.
Perry Wheeler and Jim Snitzler
were talking about the mysterious
disposition of out-of-town officials
who arrived at the ball without
tickets and Fred Roy recalled his
almost disastrous failure to recog-
nize Lum and Abner. George Will
liams Navy. Jim Wilson. Gene
Hoover and Harry Allendorfer said
that they are all presidents of the
Available-for- Marriage Club. They
did't say whether or not that in
formation was off the record.
Others who dropped by were
Thirl johnson, Creath Smiley,
Johnny Graves, Jim Marx and 1t.

titles of the latter three easily

surface. Paul G. Hoffman. admin.
istrator of the Economic Coop.
Grafton Administration, yesterday
reminded members of the Con.
gressional Club in an appeal fol
full ECA appropriations.
''To date the one great failure
Of the Kremlin has been in West.
ern Europe where before the ECA
they had every reason for opti.
misim," MIR. Hoffman said. "Ir
view Of the fact Gen. Marshall
the soldier, has placed such EN-.
phasis upon economic conditions
perhaps it would be well for me
a civilian, to point out that the
struggle to keep the nations OF
Western Europe free cannot be
won through operations on the
economic front only.
I'VE are wise in building up
military strength as well, If for
no other reason than to dis
suade the Politburo from any rash
military ventures Of their own"
Mr.. Hoffman underscored state
ments Of the former Secretary Of
State that If we are to win the
cold war In Europe, we must take
action on three fronts" This Ma
ton must be militarily strong.
encourage the development of
government of the people, for the
people and by the people and
help promote economic recovery.
he continued.
ITO neglect any Of these would
be disastrous" he said, "as long
as any totalitarian aggressor
stands on our frontiers waiting
to take full advantage of the first
sign of weakness in our defenses. :"
Mr.. Hoffman pointed out the
toll of victims-and OF
victories for the Comintern. "Ac-
tually Stain and his cohorts
have every right to be well pleased
with the progress Of their cam
paign since VI Day." he stated.
THE tide of communism in
Western Europe is ebbing where
ever the Marshall Plan has gone"
Mr.. Hoffman said. If the free
nations of Europe and this free
Nation of ours work together and
stick together we can flourish in
and in peace. No ag-
gressor will dare march against
the united free people because
with the free people lie all the
material and spiritual advan-
tages,"
