Yet the men in the camp outside

If there was a war, and if the

are exceeded. There is also an

up for revision in 1856. 1t is hated
by the Egyptians as a perpetual

would probably not be of much

they could deal with local diff

In war, the Mediterranean is
likely to be closed by air attack
and the journey here would be
hard and long for laden conveys.
There is no practical way of sup
plying this rear base from Amer
lea or Europe except by sea around
the cape. There is no strategic
railway from the cape nor any
way across the center of Africa
from the Atlantic Coast-except
by air. There . is a road from the
south, used extensively during the
war, but today, even by African
standards, it is a remarkably bad
road.
In East Africa an elementary
precaution is being taken. 1t is
possible that there will come de-
mands for a change in the politi-
cal status of the Colony and Trust

Swiss Methods Studied
American legislators have
studied with interest the expert
ence of Switzerland with anti
Communist legislation. In 1882
the Swiss prohibited Commu-
nists from holding federal posi-
tions. In 1886 the Attorney
General of Switzerland was
given the power to confiscate
Communist propaganda.
In 1910. as the war closed in
around the little country and
it sought to remain neutral,
Communists as we'll as Nazis
were put under total control.
The Communist Party was out
laWed, and all Communist Or
CARNATIONS were declared dis
solved.
In 1945 and 1916, however.
all DEGREES against Communists
were abrogated. No present
Swiss legislation is directed
specifically against Communists.
There is not even any rule
against their holding public Of

former restrictions as primarily
wartime measures. They wished
to get rid of them as soon as
they safely could and let the
normal processes of democracy
keep the Communists in check.

Thirty of the 10 countries in
the world have outlawed the
Communist Party.
Many other countries have
adopted various restrictive de-
crees against Communists. But
since. 1947 the trend has been
toward declaring all Communist
activity illegal. Panama was the
latest to take such action, on
April 20.
Legislators and officials in
many other countries, including
the United States, are consider

By Don Doone


FRANKFURT, Germany. -
The number of American chill
dren in Germany is growing so
fast the United States Army has
trouble finding enough school
buildings and teachers to edu-
cate them.
The Army must build several
new schoolhouses and recruit
more than 200 new teachers in
the United States before the
new school terms opens next
fall. ..u.
When the American schools
first opened in October. 1947.
theIe were only 1,700 pupils
children OF occupation soldiers
or American civilians working
in Germany.
BY the end of that school year
there were $500 pupils. Today
there are more than 5000. Next
year school officials expect 12,-
900. If that rate continues,
there should be about 10000
pupils by 1852.
Most of the Americans over
here are of child-bearing age,
and they are now raising those
families they postponed during
the war. More than half the
pupils are in the kindergarten,
first and second grades.
SIS Million Budget
School heads claim the Army
has done a remarkable job in
building up such a big school
system in so short a time-and
so far from home. It's credits
are accepted in all States.
1T is a typical American
school system transplanted to
Germany" said VirgilR. Walker
of Minneapolis. MINI. Mr..
Walker, a former Minnesota
University professor, is the
civilian deputy for Col. Russell
L. Albert, chief of the Army
operated school system.
With a 1949-50 budget of
$2.5 million, the system includes
seven high schools, 81 grade
schools and 80 kindergartens in
81 cities scattered through the
American zone of Germany and
the American sector of Berlin.
Every community where there
are enough Americans has an
American school. There are
school buslines and boarding
schools to take care of the chill
dren in smaller communities.
The system employs about
400 American teachers-most of
them recruited in the United
States-and 140 German as
sistants.
This school system offers one
thing few American<scho can
afford: Foreign language in
struction in the elementary
grades. Every grade school
pupil gets daily lesson in Ger
man, with German instructors.
Two-thirds of the high school
pupils enroll in the German
courses.
Helps Germans, Too
Otherwise, the curriculum is
about the same as back home.
High schools have football,
basketball, track and baseball
teams.
Mr.. Walker regards the
American schools task in Ger
many as twofold..
I'VE feel our mission is not
only to educate American chill
dren, but also to set an exam
pie of democracy in education
for the Germans" he said
Hundreds of German teachers
visit our schools to observe our
methods.
Professional standards fol
teachers are high. Instructors
must have college degrees and
at least two years experience.
But when the Army sets out
to recruit teachers in America
it has plenty of volunteers. The
pay is $4,000 a, year, plus free
living quarters and a free ride
to Germany and back.

An Illinois farm youth shown
with his champion barrow at
last years International Live
Stock Exposition.
DR.. A. D. Weber, of Kansas State
College, Manhattan, will return to
judge the steers again this year. The
only American to judge these class
es since the exposition departed
from the. custom of having foreign
judges two, years ago, Dad" Web
er, as he is known among his stu
dents, is one of the most popular
cattle judges in the country.
THE EIGHT DAYS of the exposi-
ton are packed with thrills for
agricultural visitors. But the real
high points of the show are when
the grand champion steer is selec-
ted on Tuesday and when he is sold
on Thursday.
Last years champion, hereford
named Judge Roy Bean, was pur-
chased from his Pecos county, Tex

Sll.5O per pound by Dearborn Mo-
tors of Detroit Dearborn hauled
the steer in a special plane on
10000 mile tour of the country.
But the glamor of the steer show
in the amphitheatre, which houses
most of the livestock at the inter-
national, does not dim in the i'm
portance of the great show of car
loads of fat cattle, sheep and swine
that goes on in nearby pens of the
Chicago market. Says Dan D. Case
ment, veteran Kansas cattleman,
concerning the carlot fat stock
show in the yards, ut would be
impossible to give too much credit
to the magnificent show of fat car
lots that have invariably appeared
at the international during my life
time. 1t is undoubtedly the greatest
fat stock show in the world"
Other features in connection with
the international that have become
familiar in the years since 1900 in
clude the grain and hay show, which
is recognized as the worlds largest
competitive showing of farm crops,
with exhibits from nearly every
Sldle anu oil provinces OF Cdnaoa,
and the interesting and educational
meats show, first staged in 1924,
which provides a display window
for the final phase of meat produc-
ton from packer to consumers
table; and the national All club
congress held in conjunction with
the exposition.
Reviewing the first information
in 1900, an early day writer said,
Scarcely a feature Of this exposi-
ton missed the sensational. The
union of elements which gave it
birth, its magnitude, the charact-
er of its exhibitors, the outstanding
quality of its stock, the contagious
enthusiasm engendered at its auc-
ton sales, its record-breaking pri-
ces for bullocks, the overwhelming
evidences of popular appreciation
in these features it has built an
enduring monument. Great is the
livestock industry, and the Interna-
tional Livestock Exposition is its
prophet"

the exposition attracts worldwide
interest and attention.
II not only brings approximately
200, 900 farm folk to Chicago, but
the greatest news and radio cover
age in the world carries the story
OF the exposition to people around
the globe.
William E. Ogilvie, secretary
manager of the exposition since its
revival after World War II, believes
that the coming 51st edition should
set new precedents in scope and
quality.
He points out that increased prize
money for the show should help to
encourage the exhibition of the very
'SopS VI LIVESTOCK from DOLn the
United States and Canada. Espe-
,cially outstanding are the increases
subscribed in the cattle department
which it is anticipated will attract
record entries.
Prizes for all cattle classes will
be $61 $40, the largest total ever
offered. Many prize increases made
IN other breeds to mark the occa-
sion of the golden jubilee show are
retained this year.
Two years ago the horse show,
which highlights the entertainment
program with 10 performances, took
on a western flavor with the addi-
ton of "cutting horse contest"
Tor quarter horses, so named as
being the fastest horse over a quar-
ter mile and ideally adapted to
ranch work. This contest, in which
the horses "cut" a calf out of a
drove of cattle, just as he is re-
CURED to do in his work on the west
ern range, proved so popular that
1t has been installed as a perma-
nent fixture, similar to the sheep
dog act which is a perennial favor
lite with all exposition audiences.
