This Changing World
New Chinese Puppet Ends First Phase
Of Red Move to Dominate Far East

/ ents can be fed the propaganda
announcements of the Red re-
gime.
That the nucleus of such re-
sistance exists has already become
evident in fragmentary news ac-
counts reaching Free China. It
is encouraged by the knowledge
which undoubtedly seeps through
the great Chinese human mass
even under Red rule, that the Ma
tionalists are still fighting in the
southern provinces, and are pre-
pairing to take their next stand
in the fastnesses of the West-ot
which Chungking is the center
to keep burning the torch OF re-
sistance to Red tyranny.
Same Lines Of Policy.
Moscow will carry out In China
the same lines Of policy which II
has pursued in other parts OF its
sphere: 1t will assume complete
authority over the Chinese Com
munist government, holding its
foreign relations within the Krem-
Inns hands, while rejecting all re-
sponsibility for the evil which be-
falls the luckless Chinese now
caught in the Chinese trap.
Soviet Russia has stepped in to
fill great political vacuum which
our own inability to fill left open
to her. There was time, not too
many years ago, when sharp
realization of what China means
in the world political battle and
a readiness to step in for the pro-
lection of our own interests would
have led us to take that positive
kind of action which could have
frustrated Soviet Russia in East
ern Asia as we have frustrated her
In Europe.
Our hands were tied by ideal
istic scruples about the character
of the Kuomintang government
and an unwillingness to make the
comparative minor financial and
economic effort which would have
been required to maintain the gov
ernment of Chang Kai-shek.
They were tied. too. by bad ad-
vice from high officials who were
ideologically friendly to the idea
of giving the Communists a share
in the government. In spite Of the
fact that every elf-respecting gov
ernment in Western Europe which
at any time had Communists in
it found it necessary to kick them
out in order to get rid Of the frus-
trations which were hampering re-
covery from the effects Of the war.
We are going to see just how
detrimental our policy has been
to our fundamental interests. Com
munist China will not be won
back to political independence and
personal freedom short of the in
evitable day Of settlement with
communism.

gas in interstate commerce shall
be subject to Federal regulation.
The Senators may not have
fooled anybody else by this trans
parent maneuver, but there were
indications at times that they
were actually fooling themselves;
either that or that they were find-
ing the witch hunting business
mighty good fun. This being so,
it is here suggested that they call
Senator John Foster Dulles as a
witness, to explain his own an
nounced opposition to Mr.. Olds.
The committee members obviously
enjoy being shocked and the
junior Senator from New York
could shock them plenty.
It Is fair to assume that the
Senators, like everybody else. OBJ
ject not 50 much to communism
as a philosophy but to the re-
puted purpose of the Commu-
nists to overthrow the Govern
ment by force or violence" That
makes Senator Dulles views per-
tinent indeed.
Dulles Campaign Talk.
Campaigning upstate last week,
he told an audience in Troy that
this country should check the
trend that, he said, is sweeping
all the world. IF we don't do that
here" he said, I'VE will 60 down
with the tide and we shall have
our children and our grandchil-
dren fighting their way back-a
bloody way-against the all-pow-
erful state" The all . powerful
state Senator Dulles has in mind,
you understand, is not Russia but
the welfare state" promoted by
President Truman. The Senator
recalled that Thomas Jefferson
once said that to preserve our lib
erty there ought to be a revolu-
ton every few years. AS for him
self
II don't believe that we need
to have a violent revolution, GER
tainly not today" he said. "The
people still have it in their power
peacefully to check this thing, but
If we don't do it and do 1t soon,
we will have to fight our way
back, as Thomas jefferson said
through revolution"
What's all this got to do with
the price Of gas? Just about as
much as some Of the other stuff
to which Senator Johnson's sub
committee has been listening to
so eagerly.

But, confound it, I just
couldn't keep up the pretense any
longer. I had to face the fact
that wine-no matter if it bubbled
like a baby after a meal or sat
still as a mouse, was old enough
to have retreated with Napoleon
from Russia or was young enough
to know all about Gen. Vaughan

The stuff gives me a heartburn.
Let Lucius Beebe laugh if he
wants to, but that Is the truth.
For hours after a bottle Of wine
any wine-I feel like an amateur
sword swallower. And it doesn't
taste good to me, either. Just a
shade above vinegar, according to
my taste.
Even Babies Drink 1t.
The French can't conceive Of a
man who doesn't like wine. To
order q meal without it makes just
about as much sense to them as
ordering q bedroom without bed.
Water is the liquid they can't
abide. Babies in high chairs aren't
given water until a spoonful or
two Of wine has been stirred in
to take OF the horrid water taste.
And it is said that many French
men always pour some wine into
the tub before bathing.

Il Wedding

SOME YEARS AGO I attended a wedding. It was a very small
wedding in a small white church in a small town. 1 have remem-
bered it all this time; and whenever l think of wedding, my mind
returns instantly and in satisfaction to this one.
The wedding occurred in October, and the altar was banked with
richly-hued autumn leaves. There were no other decorations. Only
the sun, shining through the tiny insets of colored glass at the tops of
the windows, caused banners of deep blue and red to ripple across
the old, oaken, high-backed benches.
The minister who performed the ceremony had been with the con-
gregation for many years. He a slight and bald, and he wore glasses;
he read the words a he had been reading them since he entered the
ministry. There was the proper solemnity, the proper note of admoni-
ton in his voice.
The brides name was Emma. She wore a long dress-her first long
dress 1t was a trnle short and her ankles showed. But the dress was
white. She was young and she gave the impression of being very
much in awe of the marriage state. Her face was grave, but it held
a subtle note of happiness. The groom, in a neat blue suit, was terri
bly, earnest as he made his responses. He seemed to stand a little
more easily after he had placed the wide gold band on Emmas hand.
Only a sister of the bride and a brother of the groom attended them.
Yes. When 1 think of weddings, I think of this small wedding in a
small white church in a small town. Whenever my friends III har-
ried with questions of etiquette, with doubts a S to procedure, when
ever they threaten to go bankrupt buying trousseaux, whenever they
worry for fear they are not being grand enough, 1 think of this we'd
ding. Because it was a wedding-L. r.

FIOmer Faces

Children's faces are like flowers,
Swept by smiles and sudden showers.
Waking eager with the sun,
Glad to see the day begun;
Drowsy dropping when the light
Softly passes into night;
Lifted, wistful, to pale skies;
Downcast when dark clouds arise.
Children's faces are like flowers,
Swept by smiles and sudden
showers
Flowers fade, their bloom departs:
Children's faces live in u hearts.
