peopes depicted on Egyptian monuments
of centuries ago.
Students, however, are apt to read into
such parallels their own enthusiasm or
skepticism. Some see more than others,
some see nothing at all Of value. Professor
Collignon stresses the genealogical ap-
proach and makes much Of the word
Kan" meaning homeland" among the
Egyptians, and "petch," meaning curve"
so that Campeche actually may signify
Egypt Bay" If that seems farfetched
to majority of readers, the circumstance
is no absolute or positive proof that it is
wrong Perhaps the Basques really are
related to the ancient denizens Of the Nile
and likewise to the Japanese and the
Indians of South America. There Is no
evidence that they are not connected with
the tribes the Greeks and Latins knew as
the Iberi or with the Gaunches Of the
Canary Islands or any other ethnic group.

Trade Agreements Victory

The international climate being what
it is, one should welcome the Senate vote
for a two-year renewal of the reciprocal
trade program, previously passed by the
House, without hampering qualifications
The most controversial issue, or at least
the most publicized issue, revolved around
the peril points provision adopted by the
Eightieth Congress. As things turned out,
the administration actually came closer
to defeat at the hands of the fur and
petroleum protectionists, and it Is very
fortunate thing that their efforts to amend
the bill were turned back, for If these
products had been given preferred treat
ment the trade agreements program would
have been seriously undermined.
That would not have been true had the
peril points feature been continued. This
provision required the President to refer
proposed changes in import duties to the
Tariff Commission. That expert body then
designated points below which it believed
tariffs could not be cut without damage
to domestic industry, and If the President
chose to ignore the commissions recon-
mendations he was required to report to
Congress on his reasons for doing so.
The administration contended that this
laid a restraint on its ability to bargain
with other countries. There was little
evidence, however, that the trade program
actually had been crippled by the peril
points proviso, and it is hard to believe
that its continuation would have had any
serious adverse effect.
On the other hand, there is equally little
reason to believe that its abandonment
spells ruin for domestic producers. This
did not happen in the years prior to in
clusion of the peril points feature, and the
President and his executive aides are not
going to sacrifice our domestic economy
in the years to come. If there is to be any
world economy recovery this country must
reconcile itself to accepting more imports,
and, on the basis of the past record, the
administration can be trusted to work
toward this end in the spirit Of doing
what is best for the country as a whole.
There ought to be reinsurance on this point
in the fact that the peril points amend
ment was opposed by such conservative
Senators as George Of Georgia, Byrd and
Robertson OF Virginia, and Tydings and
OConor Of Maryland.

For Enthusiastic Friends
To the Editor Of The Star:
Since Capt. John g. Crommelin issued his
statement to the press several admirals have
spoken in praise of his courage or in agree
ment with his announcements No junior
officers have given voice.
Although comparatively inexperienced, I
have served In the Navy quite few years,
under quite few commanding officers; but
never have served with an officer who in
spires greater loyalty upward as we'll as
downward to the last seaman.
Through the eyes Of his juniors. Capt.
Crommelins strength as leader lies in his
deep devotion to duty and country, an ability
to fly the fastest fighters from aircraft
carriers today with better technique than
most younger pilots, his great courage and
self1essness. his fine moral principles and his
untiring efforts to erase inequalities and
retain balance in low-level enterprises as
we'll as in high-level policies.
His juniors place their trust in him.

bv State enforcement authorities, the
shutting OF Of illegal traffic should be
reasonably complete. A preliminary re-
connaissance by State Alcoholic Beverage
Control Board inspectors indicates that
this traffic has reached considerable pro-
portions. Such being the case, Virginia is
fully justified In taking steps to protect
its interests.
Under State law, Virginians may bring
into the State not more than one gallon
of beer or liquor at one time. 1t Is no
secret that this rule has been ignored by
many residents OF nearby areas. Attracted
BY cut-rate prices, especially on beer, In
some Washington stores, the Virginia COM
muters have bought wet goods by the
case, dumped them in the family car with
no effort at concealment and carried them
to their homes. In so doing, however, they
were depriving their State of revenues
properly due it and were violating State
ABC laws.
officials say that most Of this illegal
traffic is the result of bargain hunting by
otherwise law-abiding individuals. They
indicated less concern with these practices
than with reported activities of profess
sionals who make business of buying up
cases of bottled goods in the District and
selling them across the river in old
fashioned bootleg fashion. Arlington busi-
ness interests have complained that this

Not all of the Virginia buyers come to

however. Some well-known brands are

stores than in washington. But some
times the stocks of the Virginia stores are

encourage District buying. This is prob
lem that State ABC authorities might well
consider in relation to the whole problem
OF liquid imports.
The novel plan for tracing and arresting
"smugglers" worked out by the Virginians
represents vast improvement over pro-
hibition-era methods. They plan to
station radio-equipped cars near local
cut-rate establishments and flash to
search squads across the bridges the tag

Performance of q Sacred Duty

To Senator Sherman Minton in 1887
there was nothing wrong in packing the
Supreme Court. The evil, as he saw it
then, was that the court was packed the
wrong way. The remedy was to pack it
the right way.
Pack the court?" he exclaimed. why,
Senators, the thing the President Of the
United States proposes in this bill has
been done by the most illustrious men in
the history of this Nation. think
that If this bill were enacted into law
Franklin D. Roosevelt would approach the
performance of his sacred duty in naming
justices to the Supreme Court bench just
as George Washington did in the beginning
days of the history of this Republic.
George Washington appointed to the bench
thirteen men, and every last one of them
was Federalist. Why? He wanted Fed
eralist opinions"
Whether or not the Senator oversimph
fed his history, there has never been much
doubt as to the accuracy Of his prediction
as to how Mr.. Roosevelt, and Mr.. Truman,
would approach their sacred duty of
naming justices" to the Supreme Court.
And there is an ironical twist to the fate
that has made Judge Minton the bene-
hciary of this approach. After the death
of Justice Rutledge, the President was
widely importuned by the press-whose
soicitous advice so often leaves him un-
moved-to select, as successor, one who
enjoyed Justice Rutledge's unique distinc-
ton of having gained previous experience
Is a Judge in the courts below. Judge
Minton meets that qualification. At the
same time, the President would have had
to look far and wide to select judge
whose previous expressions in public life
give such definite assurance that his
judicial opinions will be what the Presi-
dent wants.
Mr.. Roosevelt had no more devoted
lieutenant in the Senate than Judge Min
ton. When the people Of Indiana refused
to send him back for another term, he
found temporary refuge as a presidential
secretary until he could be fittingly re-
warded by a seat on the Federal bench.
As circuit Judge he seems to have dis
played qualities Of balance that were never
conspicuous on the Senate floor. There are
competent observers of his record IN the
lower court who believe he will make
capable associate justice, who will vindi-
cate his old Senate crony's performance
Of "a sacred duty"

She Can Cook, Too!

If plain girls are looking little down
at the mouth these days. the reason can
be found no further away than the
New Jersey beauty contests. There was
time when one could take wintry comfort
in shifting when some gorgeous creature
passed by, Handsome is as handsome
does!" If of not too scrupulous nature,
she even might have made the obServa-
ton aloud to distracted young man
whom she was trying to convince of the
beauty of her own character. But the
news that the new Mrs. America, a most
comely matron, is going to earn her fare
back to California by reciting her favorite
recipes at country fairs is really pulling
the rug out from under the girl with the
honest face.
Now the appreciative male can fallow
his whistle with the ecstatic murmur,
And she can cook, tool" The less slightly
miss feels that this is taking unfair ad-
vantage. With growing discomfort she
has watched the Atlantic City beauty
parades, which every year are conducted
with more Of the decorum Of Camp Fire
Girls meeting. She has fumed as these
great big beautiful dolls from all over the
country have hooked rugs, played the
piano and acted scenes from Shakespeare
to build up the notion that shapely limbs
and limpid eyes are mere accessories of
their charm, and to give the lie to the COM
forting old aphorism that Beauty is only
skin Deep"
Moreover, the beauties are showing
strain of self-righteousness and moral up
lift that used to be the preserve of girls
who wore Isle stockings and hat-heeled
shoes. Miss America of 1948, who stepped
down from her throne just the other day,
spent part of her time in Europe making
lofty pronouncements on the unsuitability
of French bathing suits.
1t pretty much leaves the plain girl with
out leg to stand on. She longingly looks
back to the good old "beauty sits -own-
cuse-for-being" days when the glamour
girls lolled around on tiger skins making
sultry eyes and no claim at all to the
domestic arts. Life was simpler then.

The Bosques Eqyptiuns?

Tne theory set forth by Professor P. l..
Collignon Of Oxford University that an
cient Egyptians crossed the Atlantic and
cleft their mark on the American CONT
nent" some 10000 years before Columbus
does not seem to be very important, but
the suggestion that the Basques of the
Iberian Peninsula are of Egyptian origin
is interesting. There indubitably are extant
peoples descended from the remote inhab-
itants of the Nile Valley, and the mysteri-
GUS Pyrenean race may be one of them.
But great caution should be used in
discussing the problem. Similarities in
languages, for example, are too common
the whole world around to be regarded as
specific proof Of direct connection be-
tween one community and another. Words
travel even when nations or tribes remain
static. It does not follow that the Indians
OF Tabasco are related to either the Egyp-
tians or the Basques simply because the
name Of their province resembles "t-bascu," :"
signifying in Egyptian "the land Of the
Basques." The word Basque" seems to
derive from the late Latin "Vasco," an
inhabitant of Vasconia, the country upon
the western slopes of the Pyrenees.
Professor Collignon appears to be on
hrmer ground when he calls attention to
physical characteristics which the Basques
share with Indians in South America and
perhaps some Japanese Anthropologists
have entertained the notion that the
Eskualdunak, as the Basques call them
selves, are, or anyway include, Upper
Palaeolithic types, mostly long-headed." J"
But there are many varieties Of "long-
heads" Just Is there are many varieties
OF heads not long. What is more engaging
in the circumstances is the fact that some
modern Basques resemble certain Berbers
and Abyans and also certain non-Egyptian

The Poy Bill Loq Jam

General BradleyS latest appeal 10 Jne
Senate on behalf of the stalemated mill
tary pay bill is timely reminder that this
important legislation is still entangled in
the growing preadiournment log jam. 1t
is true that administration leaders at the
Capitol have placed the pay bill on their
must" list, but even must" legislation
sometimes gets lost in the rush. It would
be q serious blow to national defense If
this measure were to fail Of passage at
this session.
As General Bradley, chairman OF the
Joint Chiefs OF Staff, repeatedly has
pointed out, an upward revision of armed
services pay Is essential not alone as
matter Of economic justice to a long
neglected group of public servants but as
q step to prevent deterioration OF the
services All three branches Of the Defense
Department have suffered from postwar
exodus of experienced commissioned and
noncommissioned officers whose talents
are badly needed in these critical times.
The lure of more lucrative jobs outside
of the uniformed forces, against the back
ground of uncertainty as to the future pay
and promotion chances in uniform, has
given General Bradley and his associates
deep concern. In letter to Senator Lucas,
Democratic leader, the jos chairman said
that failure to raise service pay this year
would mean progressive downgrading
in the caliber Of personnel"-a prospect
that. he believes, would be hazardous in
the extreme"
Senator Lucas says the House approved
military pay bill, as well as the civilian pay
legislation, will be taken up as soon as
the international arms aid bill is out of
the way. There has been some talk
Of combining the military and civil service
pay bills, but, because of the unrelated
nature Of the military and civilian pay
problems, it does not seem logical to
handle them in one package. Each is
capable of standing on its own feet.
Neither should have to rely on the other
for an assist" Each should be passed
on its merits-soon.
