North Dakota recently called this to the attention of the White House.
 AS you know,p Langer wrote the President, "all persons in Germany and Austria were required to be- long to such groups, and school-age children were naturally included. As a result, some of the students in the tour may be refused entry to this country, despite the fact they were thoroughly screened by American consulates in Austria Ia these days when we are trying to set an example to the world Of our American way of life, l believe 1 it of great importance for these young people to learn firsthand the many advantages of a government such as ours" ;" 4
 The 1949 Austrian tour was a whopping success in the U. $. and Canada. Thirty young Austrians, backed by private subscription at home. came here to present Aust rian folk dances and songs and were acclaimed wherever they ap- peared.

Diplomatic Pouch

High Commissioner John McCloy has cabled Washington asking for more troops to put down expected Communist riots within the next three weeks. McCloy reports Con- munists are slipping across the border from the east by the scores to stir up strife as part of Con- munist drive for a united Germany under the Reds. Ambassador George Allen is sending urgent cables from Belgrade that Tito, who dared defy Stalin, will be in serious trouble unless Yugoslavia gets grain. Droughts cut Yugoslayia's crop 40 cent. The American Embassy in Cairo has informed the State Department that King Farouk's gay life is beginning to catch up with him. Farouk's blood pressure is re- ported high and his doctors are pleading with him to stop his night club excursions. Neutral Switzerland is no longer secret repository for hidden money. Flu ropean millionaires, afraid the Red Army will overrun even Switzer- land, have been shipping their money to Uruguay and Mexico.

ST0RK CALLS HALT ON D0GSLED TRIP,
 ALASKA TO MAINE

JOLIET, Ill, Oct. 3O-lR Mother hood has halted temporarily the dogsled trek from Alaska to Maine of 43-year-odl Cecil (Mush) Moore,
 One of his nine dogs gave birth to a litter of eight puppies here Friday, and Moore is staying over with a friend, H. G. Peterren, until the pups are old enough to travel.
 Moore said this is the first time he has been delayed in his Fair banks, Alaska-Lewiston, Me trip. So far he's come 3,850 miles.
 The trader and his 9 dogs set out from Alaska year ago. They made the first stages through the north's bitter temperatures and rugged mountains on sled runners. The last 1,200 miles the sled has been mounted on rubber tired wheels.
 Moore is eager to get going again. T never stopped for any season until now" he said: T travelled through rough country where the temperature sank to TO below and it never got warmer than 30 be- low. It took a female to stop me" The Alaska traveller estimated he'd reach Lewiston by Christmas although he didn't know just how soon he'd be able to leave Joliet

they shocked to realize the serious danger of their stunt.
 Perhaps reason Juneau Juniors justify the Police Chiefs faith is that neither he nor any other city official takes a "spoi-sport" attitude toward celebrating Halloween. They encourage the spirit of revery but want no to be hurt killed, any property damaged
 The community take credit, too, as more has been done each year to give the younsers outlet for their tremendous energy and excitement. School. church and lodge parties have helped make children partners in play rather than partners in mischief
 Now comes the Juneau Civil Air Patrol Squadron with Halloween party in ideal settng-the huge National Guard Armory-with plenty of room for play ing and romping besides variety of attractions.
 Under the same sponsorship, large group Of merchants announced the citys first Halloween Art Contest which should result in window decorations to vie with those of the Christmas season.
 Another tradition may be in the making for Juneau-an annual community celebration that will have just one reason for being: fun

THE SHADOW OF FEAR

I do not believe that I quite realized what the wars we have been in and the atom bomb have done to us until I attended meet ing of the Board of Trade of Washington, D. c. and listened to calm, businesslike discussion of preparations for the day of doom.
 It was all in the American man. ner. Brigadier General Gordon R. Young, one of the commissioners of the capital city of our nation, without dramatics of any kind, read of the plans, the present ac- complishments, the proposals for the future, the committees appointed and to be appointed. Then some of the committee chairmen were called upon to rise and take a bow and there was applause.
 Curiously, just before he spoke, a small boy appealed for the Boys Club and an active young man made thrilling campaign for the Community Chest, for charity and pity, for mutual aid within the community. Then came the prep arations for doom.
 This is stark reality. Never be- fore in our history have Americans organized in despair over their own fate. We have organized to aid others in distress, to care for the victims of floods and earth quakes, to provide food for the

 In other professions or trades mystfying lan- guage suspected is used principally to impress the ayman. The theory is that the layman will more cheerully pay for services that he believes to be immensely complicated than for something so simple that he can clearly understand it.
 That explanation may account for the writing of some academic economists.

sufferers Of droughts or for the wounded in war or for little child ren who were starving. Ours has always been a charitable nation, sharing our surplus with others.
 But this is something altogether different, and it's businesslike char acter, the calmness of recital, the attention of the audience to the multitude of detail-here is some thing really frightening. It is an alteration in the attitude of a fearless people. It sounded more like a Chinese Chamber of Com merce discussing the deal they would have to make with bandits to save their city. We are becom- ing accustomed to fear.
 Of course, the bomb is frightful agent and we invented and pro- duced it as an instrument of war Then it was stolen from us not only by Dr. Klaus Fuchs but by as disgusting a crew of traitors as ever shamed our land. Those whom we have caught are the little fellows who always get caught; they worked for somebody i! who has not been caught. And l the great officials and the Senate , watchdog committee, headed by Senator Brien McMahon, who should have shouted the news oi the theft from the housetops, tried to keep it all secret from theil employers, the American people. So now our enemies have the
 bomb and we are organizing tc take the consequences should they use it against us.
 But it all seems so unnecessary
 We have recently fought two wars
 to end all this; yet, it seems only to have started. So far as mos l Americans are concerned, thos'
 wars were distant and, unless on'
 lost a son, remote from our homes and families. But this thing i right here at home and we art organizing for it. We hold meet. 1 ings and appoint committees.

Hound-Dog HickenloOper

Hickenlooper's probe of the State Department, in which he followed in the footsteps of grand-standlng Joe Mccarthy, looked as if it would pay better political dividends. Ev- eryone pointed to his big primary majority and said: "At least Bourke's hound-dogging has been rewarded"
 But now folks are inclined to figure that a State Department which acted so forthrightly in Kor- ca couldn't have harbored many Communists, and that maybe hound -dog Hickenlooper got hold of a scent that was about five years old.
 Hickenlooper will probably win in November. The normal COP margin in Iowa seems fairly certain to carry him through But he isn't being helped any by two other de- velopments. These are:
 l. The Republican controlled State Liquor Commission loaded itself up with lot of "Old Hector" whiskey, aged three years, when it could have bought bonded whls- key, guaranteed by the Federal gov ernment to be four years old at almost the same price. Why the COP commissioners went for Old Hector instead of the better grade is a question the Democrats want answered. So far none has been forthcoming.
 2. Iowa's COP Secretary of Ag- riculture, Clyde Spry, approved the purchase of an anti-1reeze-P-6O- contained salt and would ruir engines. The U. S. Bureau of Stand ards in Washington also refused to OK P-60 anti-freeze, but GOE Secretary Spry OK'd P-60 jus the same. The Democrats now wan to know why.
 In fact, Lester Gillette, Demo cratic candidate for Governor, zoe further than this.
 Tt would be better" he says, tt put Old Hector whiskey in ou radiators and drink the P-60."
