The
 G.adGs RoeGe4
By Mildred Kirkpatrick


 It is a truism that hate begets hate, goodwill fosters goodwill, and friendliness creates friends The past weekend was delight to all who participated in the friendly, spontaneous, unplanned entertain ment of the military visitors all over town.
 They arrived, total strangers, knowing nothing about the kind of people they were to meet, nor the sort of reception to expect They. were met under the same con ditions. After a very few hours, as soon as they discovered that they were not to be called upon in any stiffnecked formality for speeches in the traditional military style, and that they did not expect such formality from us, everything reached a "hail, fellow, well met" footing, and everybody had a fine time.
 Several groups and individuals ungrudgingly and at considerable expense to themselves set out to entertain "the boys," and during the process were nightly enter tained themselves. This was a mat ter of civic and personal pride, but with no idea of "selling"th the town in any way to outsiders. It was sheer friendliness and liking for the officers and men of the Maho- pac and the soldiers who were vis- iting for the first time
 In return, people were deeply gratified by the hopes expressed by the visitors that they would be per mitted to return soon. One man, expecting to be discharged soon, made arrangements to buy a lot and build a home. This is the place where I want to raise my kids" he said.
 What pleased me most, was that it was not forced. The real friendly SplIll IdllllOl De lOlCGu. It lS JuSl here. Seward is a community of friends, ready to welcome others at any time.
 It is hardly probable that of the more than 100 visitors in town, their impression was 100 per cent good, but it is certainty that Sew ard and it's friendly people will get more advertising in wider range through the good will created among these men, than the Cham Der of Commerce would be able to pay for in many months.
 In return, we made friends who will remain in our memories long after the reason for the occasion is forgotten. The fine. clean-cut, high caliber of the personnel visit ing here this time will go long way in recommending the services to mothers of sons eligible for duty.

Administration to reverse it's pol

the District League of Republican
Women yesterday at its monthly
meeting at the Mayfower Hotel.
The speaker was Irving Short
OF New York, former consultant
to the Department of Defense on
the Far East, who has just re-
turned from a tfree-month tour
OF Formosa, Hainan and China.
In his talk. in which he pic

Chinese Nationalist need tor
medicine, drugs and bandages on
Formosa. IF our Government
won't send them aid, then we
must shame it into doing so by
organizing a citizens committee

they live together. During the
passage of the years they have
become all in all to each other
and they are absolutely necessary
to each other. Each has found in
the other so much of goodness, SO
much Of sweetness. so much OF
tenderness and loyalty that they
admire each other far more than
they did in their counting days.
For a husband and wife TO keep
in love with each other they must
make a conscious effort to keep
love alive. They must keep them
selves personally attractive and
they must make themselves agree
able to each other. They must be
pleasant to live with.
Above all, a husband and wife
who keep in love must not only
keep themselves interesting but
must make life interesting to the
other. They must cultivate COM
panionship and continually feed
the fire Of their affection with
endearments.

Chino's Discomfort May Save
East From Reds, Koo Says
By Fronees Kuhn

The dissatisfaction of Chinese
people of all classes with the pol
icy and rule of the Communist
government and the rising tide
of resistance may save the entire
Far East from the Kremlin, DR..
wellington Koo, the Chinese Am
bassador, declared yesterday.
THE Communists aren't fulfill
Ing their promises and the people
realize they have been cheated"
the ambassador told members of
the University Women's Club. He
said that the people are gradually
realizing that the effort of the
Communist Party is not "to set
up a free China for the benefit
OF the people but to establish a
satellite for the Soviet Union"
DR.. Koo described the Chinese
Nationalist politicians as dissaris-
ned with the breaking of all
promises by the Communists tc
consult them on major issues. The
effect of communistic economic
policy has forced owners out OF
business and has cut the salaries
while increasing the work hours
OF the employees, he added.
FARMERS are in revolt in many
areas and tax collectors won't 60
INTO some provinces without
armed guards. Even the guards
aren't too safe" DR.. Koo stated

llshed by farmers who ask only TO

be permitted to keep enough rice
to feed their families but have
been told to live on grass, the am
bassador said.
He said that the watchfulress
of the Communists has the aver
age Chinese living in terror, afraid
to see each other, leave their
homes or even use the telephone
"The issue in the balance is the
freedom OF all China" DR.. Koo
declared and added, wherever
the Communists have gone, Rus
sia has followed" Soviet Russia
has a definite program mapped
out. he said. Through its chan
nels in all countries. the master
plan remains the same-domina-
ton Of the world"
DR.. Koo said that because of its
immensity and ancient culture.
China exerts a great influence
throughout Asia and if completely
dominated by the Communists,
other Eastern nations would have
little chance of survival.
The Ambassador said that the
United States could aid Chinese
Nationalists by lending arms and
technical assistance.
DR.. Koo was introduced by DR.,
Stanley Hornbeck, who said the
deluge OF distorted news made fl
difficult to get at facts 'in spite

WOn1en's Clubs
Gen. Grant Gives Tips on Being Happy
On Job to Business Wonen's Group
By Frances Lide
Women's Club Editor

Sixty charter members of the
newly organized Washington
Chapter of the American Business
Women's Association received
some pointers on how to be happy
IN their jobs at their initiation
meeting last night at the Spanish
Club.
The advice came from Mai.
Gen. U. S. Grant III, vice presi-
dent of George Washington Uni
versity, and former chairman of
the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, who spoke
from the background of so years
experience in Government service.
THE progress and prosperity of
democratic country depends
upon the integrated effectiveness
and contribution of each indi-
vitual," the speaker declared.
ITO this end" he said, you must
be happy in your work. you must
believe in the public and human
value of what you are doing or
trying to do, and you must not let
the little Illustrations and inter-
ferences of every day deaden or
depreciate your belief in what
you are doing"
Gen. Grant pointed out that
many persons create their own
unhappinesS merely by falling into
the habit Of criticizing their sur
roundings, collaborators and su-
periors. Once you say out loud
that this is a terrible job and that
so-and-so is impossible to work
with, you have established the
fact in your own mind and more
or less crystalized a conviction
which you will find yourself un-
consciously always trying to con-
firm" he warned.
Evening star., 1950-03-07

The speaker also cautioned
against worrying too much about
restrictive regulations. "red tape
and the like. The organization OF
business or Government usually
is the responsibility of other.
higher up in the hierarchy. he
declared What we can individ-
ually do is to perfect our owr
operations within our organiza-
ton. without wasting time and
energy on what we cannot
change" he suggested.
Taking up the Importance OF
personal relations with associates,
Gen. Grant stressed that subordi-
mates must be loyal to their su-
periors and that superiors must be
loyal to their subordinates. This
mutual loyalty among all members
of the team is the sine qua nom
of good efficient administration, -
he declared.
The initiation ceremonies last
night included presentation Of the
new clubs charter and installation
Of officers to serve for q three
month term before permanent Of
ficers are elected. Mrs. Dorothy
MacPhee, regional director OF the
businesswomen's group conducted
The program.
Miss Helen Smelling took office
as president and others installed
were Miss Evelyn Moss, vice presi-
dent; Miss Peggy Cation, corre-
spending secretary, Miss Mary
Hayden. recording secretary, and
Miss Harriet Gray, treasurer.

help increase the efficiency and

to promote their social and busi-
ness contacts,

Couple Can Stay in Love for 80 Years
But q Conscious Effort Is ReQuired

DEAR MISS DIX: Do you think
a man and woman after being
married thirty years can still be
in love with each other? married
a lovely girl. pretty, affectionate,
fine prlncipled, everything a man
shoulds want. yet I do not love
her, although she has been the
finest wife and mother there could
possibly be. The only reason we
stick together Is the duty to our
children. I admit I have not taken
her out as many husbands do
their wives, nor paid her much
attention, and, although she never
says so. 7 think she just tolerates
me for duty's sake. Why is this?
A MAN.
Answer: OF course, man and
woman can still be in love with
each other after they have been
thirty years.
Time kills a feeble love, but it
a great love, and there

Truman has .Srsed himself 180
degrees on o.-ler issues and he
can reverse himself on this"
Mr.. Short asserted that lit was
through our negligence that the
Communists swept through
China" and hailed Generalissimo
Chang Kai-shek for his consist
ent stand against Communist
aggression.
I'VE are alternating our friends
and losing our allies throughout
the world because we don't know
what we believe in." the speaker
charged. He called on Americans
to renew their belief in freedom
to avoid being engulfed in to-
talitarian slavery.
Mr.. Short was introduced by
Mrs. Robert Low Bacon, program
chairman.
Mrs. Carroll D. Kearns, league
president, announced the appoint

the expert use Of certain color
filters could satisfactory results
come out of any of the above
combinations.
But even in the correct COM
bination, film and light cannot
guarantee perfect color rendition.
AS we have already indicated
when shooting color out of doors
you will encounter many condi-
tions that vary from the norm.
A low sun, a gray overcast sky,
clouds. ETC., will result in changes
in color temperature. Artificial
lighting may also vary for other
reasons. Therefore, you will find
1t necessary to know the color
temperature Of the light source
at the time Of exposure. If this
varies from the normal you can
compensate for the difference
with color filters designed for
that specific purpose.

of the light source does not cor
respond. you can take a reading
with the color temperature meter
and accurately determine which
color compensating filter will even
things up for you.
These color compenSating or
absorption filters are magenta,
cyan and yellow and are made in
three color concentrations. De-
pending upon color concentration,
they absorb different amounts of
the primary colors, blue, green
and red. Thus it is apparent
that if the light that you are
using is overabundant in a GER
tain color. you can use an alb
sorption filter to compensate for
this overdose and still obtain a
faithful rendition of the original
colors Of your subject.
The above discussion regarding
the role Of color temperature in
color photography Is not meant
to discourage the average amateur
who is satisfied with the results
Of his everyday work. despite the
fact that he never heard Of color
temperature before. It is rather
an attempt to help those who
are sincere in their efforts to get

From the beginnings Of Amer

and workers in other art media
who have been acknowledged as
leaders and professionals in their

been a much larger number of
folk artists and craftsmen whose

productions of authentic merits.
Thousands of these objects
were recorded by hundreds of ar

378 Illustrations, lit of them
