TWO STORIES AND THE FUTURE

-
The columns of the Courier Reporter last week
tanned two stories which should be of especial interest
to here who spend much time bordering the future
of their community.
One story about meeting of the West Highlands
club and the celebration of the clubs 3S anniversary The
other of the Teen Ayers club made up high school
students sponsoring scochte day at the city recreation
hall. 49,. ...- - ~ $50
The Highlands club looked backward that day to the
time when the club organized by pioneer settlers of the
community It when horse and buggy still were in
when many Of the modern convenences had not been
developed Neither had the modern destructive of
been invented People those read the history of the
between the states and shrugged at the story of it's
horror They marveled at the newly invented automobile
and wondered whether it would be made really depend
able. .#:>-,~ ..- -. =.#-
People of that day looked ahead terms of the pre-
sent Few of them what before them It the
beginning of what people gradually became to refer to
the Golden Age Idealists spoke of there being
another but in three nations engued in the
big struggle known World War One.
The people who organized this Highlands club did know
SO years kids would have to tape their bicycles with il
luminous tape to give them safety along streets
through density populated which then apple

A Democrat, meanwhile. took a
different view of President Tru-
mans action in retaining Gen
Vaughan. Representative Cox,

Truman hasn't suffered because
Gen. Vaughan figured in the

Loyalty. said Mr.. Cox, is an

something for which "even his
enemies honor him"
Hearings May Reopen in Month.
Senator Mundt estimated the
recessed "five-percenter" hearings
would resume in about a month.
The date, he said. was based on
one of two contingencies-either
the investigators will unearth
enough new evidence to warrant
hearings or two witnesses who are
now Ill will be able to testify.
The investigative staff, he said.
is on a two week vacation and will
need at least two weeks after that
to complete the investigation.
Both Mr.. Hunt and David Ben
nett, president of the Albert Yer
ley Co.. are not expected to be
we'll enough to appear for month.
The Verley firm is the perfume
company that donated home
freezers to Gen. Vaughan and
other Washington notables.
A third witness the committee
wants to hear. William Helis. is
now in Greece, Senator Mundt
said. Mr.. Helis, wealthy oil man
and race stable owner known as
the Golden Greek" has been
mentioned as one Of those for
whom Gen. Vaughan did favors.
Senator Mccarthy. Republican,
of Wisconsin,, another committee
member. has said he will demand
that Frank Costello, New York
"slot machine king" be called. The
legislator brought up Costello's
name several times while question
ing Gen. Vaughan but the general
denied any connection with Cos
tello.
Chairman Hoey said at his home
in North Carolina that he sees no
necessity to call Costello. He con-
tended nothing had been borught
out to link Costello with any of
the witnesses.
Although this indicated some
disagreement between committee
members, Senator Mundt said
nothing could be further from the
truth. He said the committee had
agreed unanimously to call wit
nesses only after the staff has COM
pleted its investigation of any cpl
sodes in which they may be in

negotiators. and Secretary Of State
Acheson are reported convinced
Britain must devalue the pound

boost its sales in dollar markets.
The British attitude, as ex-
pressed repeatedly by Sir Stafford,
is that this may do more harm
than good because it will mean
Britain will have to pay more for
the food and raw materials she
must import.
Diplomats on all three sides are
inclined to agree that the answer
to this question may well deter
mine whether the conference sue

government officials steered clear
Of devaluation as q topic for the

Analyst Says Defense Setup
Still Is Short Of Objective
BY the Associoted Press

A Foreign Policy Association
analyst said yesterday that reor-
ganHation of this country'S de-
fense establishment "has not yet
enabled the United States to fore
tell with confidence what kind of
peacetime military planning would
assure us victory in the event
of war"
The analyst, Blair Bolles. in a
report for the private research
organization on the current pro-
gram to integrate more highly
the operations of the Army, Navy
and Air Force, said:
While the foreign policy pro-
gram of containment adopted by
the State Department in 1947 en-
visages counterpressure by the
United States at every point
where the Soviet Union applies
pressure, Congress and the public
alike still debate whether we
should take military stand
against the Soviet Union on the
continent of Europe or in Britain,
Germany or Spain.
Outside of Greece, Turkey and
Iran the United States has not
decided precisely what its strategic
interests are in the Near East
and North Africa, and has not yet
reached conclusion whether
Japan is a defensible bastion in
Asia"
Mr.. Bolles expressed the opin-
ion that "a major source of diff
ficulty in making military policy
is the continuing mutual mistrust
of the Navy and Air Force, grow
ing out of their respective appre-
tensions that each aims to limit
the function of the other"
Evening star., 1949-09-05

with the British attitude. But
its trade and friendship ties with
the United States are also bound
to influence it's verdict.
Mr.. Pearson and Mr.. Abbott will
get chance to express their opin-
ions about devaluation and the
British economic situation gener-
ally at a news conference sched-
uled for tomorrow morning.
Canada's part in the British
American Canadian conference
has been overshadowed by the
more publicized views of Britain
and the United States. But
Canadian officials are quick to
point out that a continuing Brit
ish dollar shortage is certain to
hurt Canada's economy.
Unless Britain scrapes up more
dollars, it may be forced to trim
its usual purchases of Canadian
wheat, flour, cheese and bacon.
This will cause repercussions in
the Canadian agricultural mar
ket, these officials say.
Meantime. from Capitol Hill
came a Senatorial reminder that
American officials must keep Con-
gress firmly in mind in the nego-
tiations.
Senator Flanders, Republican.
of Vremont said it would be wise
for the administration to be in
touch with Congress, and for the
lawmakers to keep an eye on the
proceedings "ip order that they
may not get too far off the beam. "
Senator Wherry, Republican. of
Nebraska asserted that British
officials were coming here hoping
to establish economic unity with
the United States, including free
trade and free interchange of
money. He added that would in
volve a loan of billions from the
United States.
The Nebraskan contended that
"inef1ciency in production and
marketing have priced British
goods out of markets"

residential space by use of tenn
porary buildings.
Meanwhile, the population of
Washington increased by approx
mately 40 per cent, causing terri
f1c pressure on all privately owned
residential and commercial space.
This development stimulated re-
markable expansion in housing
and auxiliary Government Office
space in the Virginia and Mary
land territory adjoining the Dis
trict.
Pressure Beginning to Ease.
'All of the above facts have a
direct bearing on any adequate
solution of the problem under
consideration.
THE pressure on commercial
Office space is Just beginning to
ease up, according to our Com
mittee on Public and Private
Buildings. But occupancy is about
80 per cent right now. This stu
alton may improve during 1949-
1850 when several new Office struc-
lures now under way, or about to
be started, will be coming on the
market.
