TV Tough For Actor

NEW YORK, Il up - Acting for
television is the thespian's tough
est assignment yet, say those who
have tried such other mediums as
stage, screen and radio.
Television is the most difficult,
they explain, because an actor must
learn a complete script. 90 through
a performance without a stop, and
If he makes a mistake, must work,
his way out the best he can.
In the movies, only a few lines
need be learned at time as seen
es generally are taken section. On
the stage the actor learns his part
once then keeps doing it over and
over. And on the radio, all he need
do is to read the script with the
proper vocal embellishments.

New RefrigeratOrs
Now AT Newton's

About $40 homemakers and their
families viewed the latest develop
ments ia home refrigerator con-
venience and design. and placed
their stamp Of approval on the
handsome new models which were
shown at their frozen food DEM
onstration held last Monday even
ing at the Newton international
Harvester Building in Bridgeville.
Homemakers were delighted with
smartly streamlined cabinets,
gracefully tapering full-length
doors, bigger freezer storage COM
partments, more convenient shelf
arrangements and colorful plastic
trays and inner doors, according to
Kenneth w. Baker, who was in
change Of the premiere showing.
NO wonder women like these
new refrigerators," r. Weldon
Brown said. "The manufacturer, In
ternatiOnal Harvester Company,
went all out to give women just
what they wanted. Thousands Of
n0memakerS all over the country
we're consulted then the company's
home economists planned the new
models accordingly. The result is
super-convenience-a place in the
refrigerator for everything-includ-
ing tall bottles, mason jars, bulky
foods, leftovers."
There are four entirely new In
ternational Harvester refrigerators
for 1850. They range in size from
IA cubic feet to 95k cubic feet, and
there is a choice Of full-width and
conventional half-width freozer
lockers, storing from 35 up I'd so
pounds of frozen food. All models
are compact and require a minimum
Of floor area.
Exclusive features developed by
International Harvester for the

PUG Vacancy

1t is expected that the President, when
the pressure of preparing for the next
session of Congress has eased bit, will
select some one to fill the vacancy on the
Public Utilities Commission. And this
gives Mr.. Truman an opportunity to
render a constructive service to the people
of the District.
There are those who are free with
criticism Of the PUG. They complain of
delays and they do not think that i'm
portant questions get from the commission
the attention and the scrutiny which they
deserve But this is criticism which
does not give sufficient weight to the
volume of work which is thrown upon
the PUG.
With an untitled vacancy, an intolerable
burden is placed on the shoulders of
Chairman Flanagan. He needs the help
of q new commissioner, and he needs
some one with the competence and the
experience to carry fair share of the
load. This, and not political qualification,
is the consideration which should govern
the selection of new member.

Costly Parkway Delays

Inclusion of George Washington
Memorial Parkway bill in the list OF
urgent legislation to be sought by tne
Arlington delegation in the forthcoming
General Assembly will take a lot OF ex-
planning at Richmond. The Legislature
will want to know why this addltlonal
request for funds was necessary so soon
after the appropriation OF $l25,000 az tne
last session. It will not be easy to present
the explanation in way that does not
reflect on the wisdom Of the Arlington
County Board.
The Assembly at its previous meeting
rushed through the $125,O00 appropriation
after Governor Tuck had Joined with the
Arlington delegation in stressing the
urgency of the legislation. The fund was
the States share for the purchase OF
rights -of-way for the third unit OF the
parkway, extending from Spout Run to
Chain Bridge. The second unit, from
Key Bridge to Spout Run, is nearing
completion The Assembly was told that
Arlington County would match the States
contribution, dollar for dollar, and that
this money would thus be Immediately
available for completion OF the parkway
right-of way program in Arlington County.
Actual construction Of the scenic drive
along the palisades of the Potomac River
is being done by the Federal Government.
But Arlington County has failed to
come through as fully and quickly as had
been expected. The county board, in
move which is certain to be false economy,
decided to appropriate only half OF its
share of the matching fund and to leave
the remainder for inclusion in the budget
for the fiscal year beginning July next.
But in the meantime half of the States
appropriation will lapse, thus making it
necessary to request a new appropriation
for the unused half, amounting to $62, 500.
The delay was excused by its proponents
on the ground that the Federal Govern
ment was not ready to proceed with con-
struction of the parkway in the near
future. What was overlooked, however,
was the fact that land values along the
proposed route are increasing steadily and
that the longer the county puts of buying
the requisite right-of-way, the more 1t
will have to pay for the land. The county
had sad experience along this line in
acquiring property for the Spout Run
stretch of the highway. Why it has not
profited by that lesson is hard to under
stand.

The Faith of q Child

It is distressing to read that Betty Lou
Marbury has lost her hand.
Earlier In the month this child OF ten
wears walked into the editorial offices OF
the Memphis Commercial Appeal and
asked if they would publish letter for
her. She had written: II want those who
may read this letter if you can publish
it to pray that I may not have to lose
my hand and that may soon completely
recover, I believe the Lord will answer
their prayers"
It was plea that touched the heart.
Untold thousands prayed for the little
girl and many hundreds came forward
with gifts and messages of comfort But
all to no avail. After exhausting every
known treatment, the medical Judgment
was that the hand would have to be
amputated. That was the only hope of
preventing the spread of malignant
growth which eventually would claim the
child's life.
Betty Lou was unshaken when her father
told her of the decision that had been
made. Daddy" she said, "if the Lord
wants my hand, that's all right with me.
There's a purpose to it."
There is also a meaning here for all
of us-for those who believe In prayer,
and perhaps more especially for those who
do not. Betty Lou has lost her hand.
But she keeps a shining faith which
nothing can take away from her. Who
will say that her prayers have gone un-
answered.?

Prooress in the Air

A few years ago, when Jet-propelIeo
planes were novelties, they could remain
in fight for only a matter OF minutes.
Though much faster than conventional
aircraft they consumed fuel so rapidly
that their range was negligible, and there
was therefore much doubt at the time that
they could ever be used for anything more
than special-purpose fighters limited TO
extremely brief intercepting operations.
Since then, however, in both military and
commercial aviation, they have been de-
veloped to q stage where the early
belittlement of their capabilities now seems
ridiculously short-sighted.
The latest. news bearing upon this point
is the announcement by the United States
Air Force that the range Of the Boeing
BAT jet bomber is expected to show
another increase in the near future. Last
February, when it made nonstop cross
country trip Of 2,289 miles at an average
ground speed of GOT miles an hour, its
effective combat radius was described as
being only more than 800 miles," which
meant that on an attack mission, when
fully loaded with bombs, its total flight
duration-from base to target and back
again-was limited to figure substantially
less than 1000 miles But in the months
that have since passed, better engines have
been developed for it, and 1t Is accordingly
capable of striking at greater distances.
For security reasons, the Air Force has
given only generalized indication of the
expected improvement in the performance
of the BAT, predicting merely that Its
combat radius will be more than 1000
miles"-a figure that could conceivably
mean an overall operating range, when
fully loaded with bombs, in the neighbor-
hood of $500 miles or perhaps even more.
Such range, Of course, would not even
approach that Of the basically non-jet
B-36, which has flown nonstop 1000 miles
with a five-ton bomb that was not dropped
until more than half the flight was over.
The BAT, however, is rated as a medium
bomber It is not slated to replace the
giant B-36, whose jet-propelled successor,
though now in the design stage, has yet
to be built.
It is fairly predictable, however, that a
super heavy Jet eventually will replace the
super heavy B-36. In all fields Of military
aviation, the conventional propeller -driven
craft, though they probably will have an
important role to play for years to come,
are slowly but surely being overshadowed
by the jets. At the moment this Is
particularly true of the fighters and inter-
ceptors, and the news about the BAT
indicates that the medium bombers are in
the process of similar change. As for the
huge B-36, despite its being the mainstay
of our strategic air power right now, there
can be little doubt that just as 1t has

Expresses Appreciation Of
Protestant's "Christian Understanding"

Expresses Appreciation Of
Protestants Christian Understanding"
To the Editor Of The Star
Seldom do we see such spirit Of Christian
understanding and wisdom as expressed in
Mr. Snowden's letter regretting attacks on
Catholicism in the United States.
AS a Catholic layman- teacher, have felt
the hatred my religion arouses In some
small communities.
My attitude is this: The Catholic Church
has existed some 20 centuries and has had
billions of adherents in that time. To hate
Catholics or their church is as senseless
as hating the moon for shining. The church
must have had something on the ball to
have survived this long.
Mr.. Snowden strikes me as being q very
enlightened man. Would there were more
enlightened Protestant laymen like him.
He reminds me Of the early American revo-
lutionists who realized that they must band
together or hang separately.
In the face of the Pope's plea for unity
Of action against atheism (secularism), as
Catholic know just how difficult it would
be for Mr.. Snowden and other men of good
will to unite with us doctrinally. believe
that MIR. Snowden's concession Is the most
and best Catholics can expect in defense Of
fairplay.
am sure Catholics welcome and appre-
ciate Protestant overtures Of goodwill. God
bless them. E. F. BARBANO.

supplanted the B-29 which in turn had
earlier supplanted the Bit, 1t will in due
course be supplanted by something faster
and better.
Since its beginning, of course, the history
of aviation has been the history of steady
and phenomenal progress good-and-
evil kind of progress that has carried
modern war, in total FORM to the last
limits of human endurance. This progress,
morever, is anything but at its end. Even
as jet propulsion comes to the fore, the
scientists and engineers are talking about
other forms of motive power-including
atomic fuel-and rockets and experimental
man-piloted ships have already been flown
at speeds so much faster than the speed OF
sound that nearly everybody takes 1t for
granted that the day Is coming when it
will be rather commonplace to fly $500,
1000 or more miles within an hours time.
Indeed, air developments are now at
point where many experts predict that
most manned military planes will be obso-
lete within the next ten years or so.
This view is based on what is being done
with guided missiles. Within sight, accord
ing to some authorities, Is the perfection
of supersonic defensive weapons equipped
with homing devices and proximity fuses
automatically guaranteeing the destruction
of attacking bombers. If this is true, then
- the day is also likely to come-and possibly
sooner than most Of us care to think
when planes like the B-36 or BAT will be
reduced to museum pieces by unnamed
"space ships" or intercontinental rockets
with atomic warheads. Human genius has
not exhausted itself It's still-untapped
capacity for evil, as well as for good, seems
large enough to warrant quite as much
shuddering as hope for the future of man
and his world
