MOTOR MANNERS

DEAR MR.. KlERAN: As a nature lover you must
do a great deal of walking What your opinions
the manners of motorists toward pedestrians?
Mr. kIERAN: First take note of current conditions Most
motorists drive like sons of Belia flown with nsolence
and wne The appalling proof of is that they kill
than 10000 pedestrian citizens of this country each year.
And it's usually the result of bad motor manners
The average motost drives too FAST scatters mud heed
lessy pedestrians rainy days, has consideration
whatsoever for foot and thinks that when he has
turned loose blast his horn anything that
happens subsequently to pedestrian is the poor devils
own fault
Along country roads the whrl around sharp
and force rural stoers to dash to the ditch the fence
for safety In cities with traffic lights at crossings,
pedestrian crosses street at grave risk to life and limb
Drivers halted by nonchalantly crosswaks
to make progress more difficult for harassed pedestrians
HERE polite suggestions for abatng the insult
ferable situation:
!. Drive though pedestrians friends, not enemies
T. Try using the brake occasionally instead of relying
exclusively the horn This will prove that you really do
give more than hoot for pedestrian.
:. Don't wait until the last moment and then slam
the brakes. You might well kill man scare him to
DEATH
4. A driver blocking crosswak should not sit there
with arrogant air though the milling pedestrians
beneath contempt. At least he could look apologetc
Assume virtue if you have it not. (Shakespeare)
s. Don't cheat at traffic lights corners Give the
pedestrian time get the street before you up
s. Don't drive so fast 1t probably won't matter you
arrive few minutes later.
7. Remember that an automobile supposed be an
accessory to civilization and not homicidal weapon

In accepting the chairmanship
of. the National Council for an
other year, Mr.: Rockefeller de.
clared, 81 had a deep interest in
the Negro race even before my
father established the General
Educational Board. Because this
campaign is both constructive
and cooperative, it offers to every
citizen an unusual opportunity
to indicate concretely his inter
est in and good will for, the Ne
gro race. To industry, likewise, it
brings a similar opportunity and
responsibility, for industry is
increasingly concerned in a wise
and just solution Of this great
national problem-a problem
which,, if rightly dealt with can
and should be converted to a
source of great enrichment to
our national life"

the mistakes that led us into

to weary OF the battle to keep
the peace that follows every war.
Many Of the things in this
book have been set down with
genuine regret. realie that
much written here may he pain
ful for some of the personalities
discussed and that the counter
criticism that is sure to come
may be personally distasteful to
me. But | can remain silent no
longer. The stakes are now too
high. | must take the long
chance that by offering my evi-
dence on the last decade in the
Orient l may contribute 4 some
timing to an accurate estimate of
the problems we now face and
I the direction in which. we are
drifting. Nothing less than our
! national survival depends on
how well we understand this
drift and navigate a new course.
China is the key to the Pacific.
Politics are variable, but geo.
graphv is a constant. It is the
geography Of China that makes
that unhappy land so important.
, Whatever sentimental appeal
there may be in the American
aid for China, the United States
, attitude toward China should be
based on ia thoroughly realistic
appraisal of China's value to the
United States.
This country is now engaged
/ in a worldwide struggle with
; Russia over organization of the
world. The problem is whether
war with Russia is inevitable or
whether the world can be or
ganized as a cooperative venture
in peace. This decision depends
entirely on the shifting balance
of strength between the positions
of, the United States and Russia.
There Is a growing accuunula-
ton of Intelligence to indicate
that Soviet leaders already con
slider their Asiatic victories Of
sufficient strategic Importance
! to tip the world balance of pow
er decisively in favor Of Russia.
The Russians understand the
role Of China in this balance we'll.
Since the beginning Of the Chin
ese Revolution in the early 192Vs
Russians have been active in
bending China to their purpose.
Chicago world., 1949-02-05

After they lost their first chance
to gain control Of China in 1927,
the Soviet leaders vigorously
aided any cause that might weak
en- the Japanese program to
hitch China to it's imperialistic
chariot. Now, with Japan defeat
ed, Russia is again slIewdly ex-
plotting the weakness of Ameri-
can policy in China to make her
most determined bid for domin-
alton of that vast, strategic area.
The Russians seem to learn
something from history. They
have watched their German
neighbors go down to shattering
defeat twice in twO-front war.
There is considerable evidence
that the Sovit LADDERS are deter
mined to avoid that pitfall. While
Germany was a pre-War menace
en- the western flank, Russia
carefully avoided war with jap
an despite ample provocation by
the japanese. Pitched battles u.s.
ing airplanes and tanks were:
fought ON the Manchurian from
tier in 1892 and 1886 between
the Russians and Japanese, but
tine Russians refused to be bait
ed into a full-scale war Russia
was also wary Of taking on even
the badly mauled Japan in 1945
until the Soviet victory over
Germany was complete.
l seriously question that Rus
sia will make anything more than
probing skirmishes in Europe
until her Asiatic flank is secure.
The flurries Of Russian activity
IN Europe are largely tests of
American j policy and smoke
screens to divert attention from
, the fact that Russia is acquiring
vast natural resources, strategic;
bases, and securing it's most vul-
nerable flank in the Orient.
The Russians are we'll aware,

Supreme Court Hears
Hawaii Foreign

WASHINGTON, d. C.-The
constitutionality of a Hawaiian
aw prohibiting children from
studying foreign languages, was
challenged last week in the U.
S. Supreme court. The case, in
which Hawaiian government
authorities appealed a district
court decision, declaring the law
unconstitutional, involved a
Chinese language school, repre-
sented by A. L. Wirin, counsel
for the American Civil Liberties
Union, Southern California
branch.
The original case was brought
against Hawaiian authorities by
Mo Hook KeLok Po, an official
Of the Chinese language school.
The law prohibited teaching of
any language other than English
to children under the fifth grade
who had not passed standard
English requirements. The law
claimed to protect children from

AS Adenauer made the an

ly got pretty much what it want
ed from the Paris negotiations.
Adenauer went to some pains
to explain just what IS meant by
the decision on dismantling. The
chancellor said the three Western
foreign ministers had agreed to
slow down dismantling Of certain
synthetic gasoline plants and
steel factories, pending further
discussions between the German
government and the Allied high
commission.
The big problem of course was
that Of dismantling On this ques-
ton, France has never seen eye
to-eye with Britain and America.
Some 800 factories still are on
the Allied list to be dismEntled
either as reparations or because
Of their possible war use. At first
the Allies put 1000 plants on the
dismantling list. Then they cut
this figure in half. But after the
Marshall plan got underway the
number was reduced further. n
1t should be noted that the
showdown in the dismantling
program does not involve those.
German plants which were
directly used in making arma-
ment. State Department experts
on Germany say destruction Of
the war plants has been almost
one hundred per cent.
Protests against dismantling
of German plants did not come
from Germany alone. Just before
Congress adjourned last month,
A Senators, Democrats and Re-
publicans, appealed to the State
Department to call a halt. The
question was-why pour help
into Germany and at the same.
time take away her plants?
This apparently has been an
swered by today's announcement
that dismantling of German in
