FOnNOSA:
Many Tanks

The administration was standing
pat on its decision against U. S
military intervention in Formosa-
destined to be the next area Of
conflict in the Communist drive tc
control the Far East.
Official U. S. attitude was that
this country could do more to com.
bat communism in the volatile
Orient by extending economic aid
to lands still outside the Red orbit
than it could by direct Intervention
in the struggle.
AT THE SAME TIME, however,
the generalized term economic
aid was being employed as usual
to cover multitude of purposes.
A case in point was the news that
the Chinese Nationalist had pur-
chased nearly 800 U. S. army tanks
for shipment to Formosa, where
they would be used in the defense
against the Communists.
The military vehicles were listed
as surplus army equipment, and
the price tag was $1,000 per tank.
Similar tanks, minus weapons, cost
about $4,000 to build during the
war.
ANOTHER element in the para
dox was that the Nationalist paid
for the tanks with money from the
25-million-dollar kitty which was
provided for the aid of China by
congress last year.
U. S. state departments stand
on the matter was expressed by
Michael McDermott, department
press officer, who said that the
Chinese Nationalist government
had been spending the aid money
through its own purchasing agents
and had bought whatever arma-
ments it wanted.
I'VE STILL recognize the Ma
tionalist government of China and
would interpose no objection to its
exporting this material from this
country" he stated
Although the destination of the
tank shipment was not disclosed
officially, it was an open secret
that the cargo was bound, aboard
Turkish ship, for Chang Kai-shek's
Nationalist government headquar-
tiers on Formosa.

Population Moving
IN WASHINGTON


WHILE ALL the attention and
w shouting about the 1850 census
right now seems to be over the
questions to be asked about in
come, the real political signifi-
canoe of this census is in what 1t
will do to congress after the reap
portionment as a result of the CEN
Sus.
This second session of the 81st
congress is sitting for the last time
as now constituted, for as the say
ing goes, there'u be some changes
made. For instance the migration
from rural areas into the cities will
make a definite impression on the
complexion of congress and more
Representatives will come from the
urban centers.
New York state, for instance
will lose three congressman;
Pennsylvania will lose two. In
dications now are that Illinois,
Georgia, Arkansas, Kentucky,
Mississippi, North Carolina,
Tennessee and Oklahoma will
each lose at least one congress-
man.
California will be the big winner
with an increase of eight more
congressman. Florida, Indiana,
Michigan, Texas, Oregon and
Washington will each gain at least
one. And there may be other shifts
as the population moves from East
to West.

REA Gets Help

approximately 6UU appllcatlOns
are on file with the rural electric
administration from companies
seeking to give rural telephone
service under the law enacted by
the last session of congress.
And apparently there is an en-
tirely different feeling between
the private telephone compa-
mics and REA as compared to
this government agency and
the private power companies.
Perhaps the telephone corlra-
MES are taking page out of
the book of experience, for as a
matter of fact they are offering
REA every facility and help as
result of their long experi-
ence, instead of attempting to
bloc the program as did the
electric utilities.
Most applications for extension OF
phone, service to the farms is com.
ing from established private firm s
The private companies say they il.
stalled 100000 rural telephones in
1949 without REA. One advanta re
the private companies have is thai

tablished electric Coops to handle
telephones. So new telephone coopi
must be organized.

ATHENS. Greece.-One Of the
best fashion stories in Greece to-
day is the wearing by Greek wom-
en- of many items formerly thought
too "peasanty" for inclusion in q
wardrobe.
This is largely the result Of the
efforts Of Muriel King who through
her az years of invaluable work
with ECA in Athens. has seen to
it that the worlds leading fashion
people have had chance to
acquaint themselves with the ex-
quisite handwork Of Greece.
And by remote control this
stimulation has resulted in a great
interest being evidenced by Greek
women of things Greek.
Today one spots many colorful
skirts of homespun fabrics with
sparkling borders being worn for
informal and playtime wear.
Greek embroidered silk blouses
formerly Tapped up only by tour
lists and the wives Of foreigners
stationed in Greece, are now find
ing their way into many o Greek
woman's wardrobe.
Long scarfs of "coucoulariko, 81
the silk waste fabric In bright
colors. are used a great deal now
to garr1ish coats. And speaking of
scarfs-one Of the strangest sights
to be seen in the world on
the hot streets of Athens.
Women walk in the bright sun
light with sheer silk scarfs tied in
front of their faces in a manner
slightly reminiscent of the way
ladies first looked when the auto
mobile made it's debut.
These, however, are sidelights
of a fashion picture and not the
highlights which include Muriel
Kings wonderful work in pre-
pairing the Cavalcade Of Greek
Fashions that toured the United
States last April. The main pur-
pose behind the cavalcade was to
acquaint American fashion stores,
editors. dress designers and man
ufacturers with the inspirational
and fabric wealth to be found in
Greece.
The strange result of this caval-
cade was that it not only con-
vinced America of the value of
the handcraft picture in Greece,
but was responsible for Greece's
recognizing a great deal of its
own native talent.
Native art fourishes in Greece
today as it has for many centu-
ries. But the re-awakening on the
part of the Greeks to the appre-
citation of their handcrafts has
been very heartwarming.

present time with things that look
too much alike. The excellent
peasant craft of Greece, she feels,
can help alleviate some Of this.
AS part of her work, Miss King
has visited a great many Of the
Greek Islands, Konitza, Yiannina.
Patras, Attica, Salamis and
Larissa.
Formerly one of New York and
Hollywood's most noted designers,
Miss King who originally went to
Greece in May of 1948 for six
weeks and who has stayed 21a
years, is well qualified to help the
Greek people find out what it is
that America, in particular, wants
in the way of exports.
She has lectured, designed
clothes for war workers, had her
own custom salon, and helped
organize the department of Fine
and Applied Fashion at Stephens
College. -.- .~,.
An October visit to the States
is on her busy schedule and We
think Washington will be one Of
the cities visited.
