A short time ago had an oppor-
tunity to do a little spot thinking.
was in the hospital for an
emergency operation. For 80 days
thereafter I was lying on my back,
and there was nothing to do but
think. I was full of morphine most
of the time-or demarol-or one
of the derivatives so, as to the
quality of my thinking, I give no
guarantee whateveE You may
say that it sounds very much like
dream stuff. Perhaps it is.
But I did do a great deal of
thinking about the fact that. after
two world wars during which I'd
lived. victory in those wars had
been followed by an uneasy peace.
I tried to figure out how and why
that had happened, why it was
that after victory we had not
found peace.
I even went back to our own
Civil War, and I concluded that
the reason why military victory
has not been followed by real peace
is because we never have been will
ing to wage the peace with the
same dedication, the same sense
of sacrifice, the same resourceful-
ness which we have always &C
cepted as essential to the winning
of a war. We have felt that peace
would come automatically. I
think by now, perhaps. we should
have learned that peace does not
come automatically. Winning a
peace has become increasingly
difficult with every passing decade
with every successive war.
Kremlin Wants Chaos
After our Civil War, how easily
the North could have won the
peace. if, instead of sending car
petbaggers to the South, we had
sent seed and livestock. The re-
suit would have been that the
South quickly would have for
gotten its resentment against the
North. We would have had
truly united country. We would
have prof1ted to the extent of
many hundreds of millions of
dollars which would have come
out Of the South--dollars that
did not come out until much
later. The North won the war
against the South. 1t did not
win the peace for a good many
decades thereafter.
After World War I we lost the
opportunity for peace again. We
won the war. but we in America
settled back into the normalcy
of our isolationism. Great Brit
ain and France. too, settled back
to rather normal mistrust of each
other. Hitler was given the op-
portunity to build up his military
might. When all the great ma
tions sincerely wanted peace,
peace did not ensue, because we
did not wage the peace. Now we
are faced with a much tougher
situation. We've got to win a
peace this time and under cir
cumstances of the greatest diff
Guilty. Because all the great ma
tions do not want peace.
. We all know the Kremlin wants
not peace-wants not war-but
wants chaos among the free ma
tionS, so that their plans for
world conquest can be carried
out. That is the world situation

Aid Not Wasted

Mrs. Edwards, who has been re-
porting the facts on Korea in her
speaking tour, said: What we
must never forget is that since
1946 and that day last June when
Communist aggression struck, the
United States, under Democratic
leadership, spent $523 million in
military and economic aid for
South Korea. That aid has not
been wasted and has played an
important part in the present
struggle against Communist ag-
gression from the North. The
South Korean army has made a
remarkable recovery from those
first days of the surprise Commu-
mist attack. Every day we read
more and more accounts of the
splendid showing that the South
Korean army is now making,
along with the United Nations
forces. We can DE grateful that
the American Government gave so
much support Ito South Korea.
Without that, the South Korean
fight would have been much more
difficult. and undoubtedly would
have cost far more lives for the
United Nations forces"

Mrs. Edwards Views

Mrs. India Edwards, vice chair
man of the Democratic National
Committee. in position to state
the Democratic viewpoint in the
absence of National Chairman
William B. Boyle. jr.. and the new
ly appointed executive vice chair
man, Senator Anderson of New
Mexico, said frankly that the Ko-
rean victory should help the DEM
ocratic candidates in the coming
elections-although she prefaced
her comment with an assertion
that "We would have won any
way" and added that she thought
''it a terrible thing to use our
mems fighting in Korea in a polit-
ical way"
American victories in Korea, +"
said Mrs. Edwards, who has just
made a trip through the Midwest
to talk to women's groups on be-
half of Democratic candidates for
the House and Senate, "are the
best answer to Republican charges
of unpreparedness. Women's faith
in the bipartisan foreign policy
of President Truman has not been
broken by unscrupulous attacks OF
some Republicans to win votes"
Nor, continued Mrs. Edwards

charges that the United States Is

South Fears Veto of Measure
Easing Cotton, Peanut { Controls

Senator Aiken, Republican, of
Vermont told a reporter Mr.. Tru-
man Would be exercising good
political judgment if he vetoes this
measure
Senator Aiken, ranking Repub-
lican member of the Senate Agri-
culture Committee. vigorously
opposed the hard-fought compro-
mise on the Senate floor. He
estimated it would cost between
$100 million and $3.50 million for
price supports on additional cotton
and peanuts above existing sur
pluses.
The compromise measure was
before the Senate three times be-
fore it finally passed by a 38-to-
81 vote.
Hog Commitment Ends.
The bill would remove the
costly price supports on potatoes
after this year, unless Congress
enacted and growers accepted
rigid controls.
Meanwhile, the Governments
commitment to support hog prices,
in case of a sharp decline, will
end tonight.

Southern lawmakers fretted to-

Truman may veto bill easing
acreage limitations on two major
Dixie crops.
Il can not believe the Presi-
dent would veto this bill" said
Senator Russell, Democrat, of
Georgia.
The measure. passed by both
the Senate and House, would
loosen controls over peanuts and
cotton and tighten them on pota-
toes.
Several Senators, who asked that
their names not be used. said they
had learned that Secretary of
Agriculture Brannan had recon-
mended veto on the ground that
the proposed potato restraints
would be Ineffective and far out
weighed by additional costs for
supports of peanuts and cotton.
At Key West. Fla, a source
close to the President said yester-
day Mr.. Truman had not yet de-
clded whether to veto the bill.

Pompered Georgia,

Dies in Aquuriun

SAN FRANCISCO, Mar. 81
George, a seal who had been on
television and received fan mail,
died yesterday at Steinhart
Aquarium.
What caused the leopard seals
death was a mystery. Luxurious
living? Possible.
He was really pampered. Most
leopard seals feed themselves.
Not George. He was handled
Q pounds of fish and swig of
cod liver oil for breakfast.
Recently George appeared on
Station KPIX. Fan mail poured
into the aquarium.
George. months old, was
netted off Vancouver. British Co.
lumbia. The Standard tanker
crew threw him back but he set
up such a clamor that the crew
retrieved him.
Soon after his aquarium debut
he developed a cold. Hypercillin,
a new powerful type OF penicillin,
cured that.
But yesterday, after his hand
feeding, George rolled over and
died.

care for himself and his family
