1 attended the most interesting
club meeting the other day-and
came away with so many new ideas
for my home, that I'd like to tell
you about it, The entire program
was completely fascinating - THE
Story of Glass and Home Decorat-
ing which our chairman, and
group of six members whom she had
selected, presented following a COM
plete program guide furnished by
the Pittsburgh Plate Glass Com
pany
The afternoon Just flew by as
our members told us the complete
history of glass from its first dis
co7ery by group of Phoenician
sailors up to its many uses today.
One very interesting part of the pro-
gram was the presentation of three
beautiful full colored wall charts
showing how glass can be used for
decorating in today's home. These,
100, were part of the material furn-
ished by the Pittsburgh Plate Glass
Company and prepared by Theresa
Booth Wells, the noted club auth
GRITTY.
All of us we're especially eager to
get decorating suggestions for our
own homes - and were certainly not
disappointed-fo the members who
participated in the program showed
us 101 ways in which glass can be
used to make our homes more con-
venient. as well as more beautiful.
I'm chairman of another club
meeting scheduled soon for a diff
ferent group of women, and I'm
planning to obtain this same ma
terial to present to this group. The
program chairman told me that the
material included everything from
newspaper notices to printed book
lets And that certainly simplifies
the problem of what to do to keep
members interested during an after
noon, doesn't it?

This Changing World
Atlantic Defense Seen as Leaving
Plenty for L. S. Ground Forces to Do

from an American top COM
mander.
Provides Only for Europe.
That American ground forces
ultimately would have to- be
thrown into such a struggle is
taken pretty much for granted
But it is not only Europe that they
will have to fight. for any conflict
with the Soviet Union is certain
to become global in character and
the present alliance provides only
for defense in Europe.
American troops will have to
fight not only in China and the
Near East, but also. perhaps. in
Manchuria and the Eastern part
of Siberia. We may have to fight
to win back Indo- China, Malaga
Burma and Thailand as well as
the Philippines and Indonesia if
before the conflict starts we fail
to prevent their fall to Commu-
mist domination. There will be
plenty for American air and naval
forces to do in those areas, too.
1t is difficult to determine in
advance of actual hostilities Just
how the fighting will develop after
it starts. The original attack may
not even come in Europe, and
the drive toward the English
Channel may come only as a re-
suit of the diversion of our forces
to meet aggression elsewhere.
Fighting Would Spread.
1t is certain, however, that
fighting will spread to many
theaters outside Europe itself. So
the Atlantic alliance, while con-
stituting a long step on the right
road toward creation of those
forces that will be hequired in q
worldwide conflict. is only the frs
step Of many that will be neces-
sary before we are completely
ready to win a war.
AS Gen. Bradley. chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of staff, has
pointed out. we are on the road
to preparedness but cannot claim
to be fully ready to cope with a
full-blown military assault by
the Russians. All we would be
able to do now is blunt the force
OF an attack, that is to meet it
at any point where it may fall,
although we could not defeat it
with our present forces.
Ultimately there undoubtedly
will have to be a Combined
Chiefs of Staff to provide overall.
worldwide direction for fighting a
war. This will have to 60 far be-
yond present arrangements which
are limited to Europe. In the over
all picture the American ground
forces will have plenty to do.

ing the present 1mpaSSe. That
search, they have insisted, must
be based on Americas greatest
asset, its spiritual forces.
Senator Brien Mcmahon of
Connecticut, chairman of the
Atomic Energy Committee, earlier
had made the concrete suggestion
to which the present drive is
pinned. He proposed a disarma-
ment conference coupled with a
promise to participating nations
that a substantial part Of what
this country was enabled to save
on arms would be devoted to help
ing them improve the lot of their
people.
Hopes Russia Can't Refuse.
The Senator emphasized that
we are dealing with the question
of life or death for all people. He
said his proposal was made in the
sincere hope that the Soviets
would find it too attractive to re-
fuse. If it were considered i'm
practical, he said, he would al
ways welcome a better one.
Senator Tydings, Democrat, OF
Maryland seconded him with
a strong plea for disarmament.
Senator Flanders, Republican, of
Vermont this week applauded the
fight against the stupid and dam
gerous leadership given us by
our constituted authorities" The
sturdy Yankee banker and busi-
nessman warned that I'VE must
not be so much attacking the
Russians as expressing ourselves. "
1t'is discouraging to these men
when the unsupported charges
and charts of Senator Mccarthy

wise. Senator Frank Graham of
North Carolina, progressive
Democrat, came out ahead in his
State, though now facing a run
off with Lawyer Willis Smith of
the strict Southern conservative
tradition. " =.
AS for Republicans, Senator
Wayne Morse, who is in the pro-
gressive wing of his party, easily
won denomination against con-
servative Republican opposition,
while Governor James H. Duff,
who is much more conservative
than Senator Morse, yet forward
looking, overwhelmed the machine
Of the octogenarian Joseph r.
Grundy, who has been identified
always with the COP Old Guard,
to win the Republican Senatorial
nomination.
Hickenlooper Triumphant.
On the other hand, Republican
conservatives who are counting
upon the issue of McCarthyism to
help them were encouraged by the
triumph in Iowa of Senator Hick-
enlooper who. it may be recalled,
went crusading some months ago
against David Lilienthal, long
identified with the New Deal and
then head of the Atomic Energy
Commission, and recently has been
backing Senator Mccarthy, Re.
publican Of Wisconsin, in his COM
munism- in government campaign.
Republicans are making much of
the overwhelming vote cast in the
Iowa Republican primary, 252, 900,
as compared with only 100000
votes approximately for six candi-
dates in the Democratic primary.
Yet two years ago, two Republican
candidates for the Senatorial nom
ination in Iowa's primary got q
combined total Of 100000 votes
compared with only 65, 900 cast for
Guy Gillette, previously in the
Senate, and another candidate for
the Democratic Senatorial NOM
ination-but Mr.. Gillette won by
$4,000 in the election when over
a million votes were cast, while
President Truman carried the
State by only $4,000. OF them
selves, these results may tell little
or nothing about this November.
Which shows you can't bank
much either on the Democratic
claims for November in Californis
on the basis of more votes beins
east for Democratic Senatorial
candidates in the primary thar
for Representative Nixon, the Re.
publican candidate-if a discount
is not suggested by the huge ma
jority Gov. Earl Warren piled VI
over Jimmy Roosevelt.
It's not safe to count November
eggs yet.

the European nations will provide

Truman and Acheson Quoted.
Actually there are signs that
they are making a dent on ad-
ministration obduracy and the
public consciousness. Both Presi-
dent Truman and Secretary of
State Acheson have veered to
heavy emphasis Of America s peace
aims. the Secretary told Congress
that cold war was not a good
phrase and ought to be dropped: :
we are, he declared. not engaged
in war but peace. In two major
addresses in Missouri, the Presi-
dent used the words 'peace" or
peaceful" Is times. Gen. Marshall
has warned recently against "com-
plete dependence upon military
and material power"
MeSSrS. Truman and Acheson
reflect what the Secretary learned
at the North Atlantic conferences
last month in London, which is
that Western Europeans are re-
spending to Soviet propaganda
about our "warmongering." They
believe that America has played
into Russian hands with so much
talk about Russian strength and
the threat of war; that America
must give them hope that peace
is still attainable.
Preachment Here Cited.
The country too is showing signs
Of preferring to search through
the spirit rather than incessant
martial clamor.

Cathedral here held an all-day

DR.. c. Leslie Glenn. rector of the
influential parish of st. Johns on
Lafayette Square. exculpated the
bishop from charges of some
straitlaced Episcopalians that he
had violated canon law. But the
uproar over the hydrogen bomb
only reminded DR.. Glenn that
Joan of Arc was criticized for
teaching French peasants to pull
English knights off their horses
and club them instead of fighting
as gentlemen with spears. DR..
Glenn warned against pacifism
but begged his parish to join in
the hunt for ways to peace in the
sure strength Of the promises of
their faith.

Family.
The affection which this city
has for Brumas-he was named
after his two keepers. Bruce and
Thomas-began six months ago
when he was the first polar bear
to be born in the London Zoo, and
one of the few ever born in cap
tivity.
His Name Is Everywhere.
You hear and see his name
everywhere you turn In London.
Brumas has become part Of the
language over here.
A new movie star Is said to be
"as cute as Brumas."
A cricket player Is spoken Of as
being "as popular as Brumas."
There are Brumas dolls. Brumas
picture books have sold into the
tens Of thousands. There is
Brumas candy, and soap shaped
like Brumas. Since he has begun
to walk there is a dance called
the Brumas. and there is talk that
If the Labor government falls
Brumas, not Mr.. Churchill, will
be named Prime Minister by the
Conservatives. Many feel that he
is much better known than Mr..
Churchill.

South Pacific"
Jean and I went to Regents
Park early Of q weekday morn
ing, and it was past noon before
we were able to see the little
critter who's the biggest news
around here since the abdication.
Thousands in Line.
You would think that London
ers would have had enough of
queueing up by now. but they are
perfectly willing to queue UP
again to see the biggest star in
the zoos history.
There couldn't have been fewer
than 5000 men. women and chill
dren in line when we got there.
Big signs beginning at the main
entrance Of the zoo read ITO
Brumas." You follow these signs
until you are stopped by the tail
end Of the queue.
A big chain has been placed
across the ramp which leads to
the outdoor den and swimming
pool where Brumas lives with his
mother. Ivy. Special attendants
let in groups OF about 500 at q
time, let them get not too long
a look, and then hurry them along
to the exit.
The makeup Of Brumas' fans
is all-encompassing. Every type
in London is in the crowd, and
they all "ah" and "oh." Above
the grandstand which has been
built to allow people to get a
better look at the little fellow a
giant sign reads, do Not Throw
in Food if You Do Not Want to
Kill Brumas."
He Gets Dirtier.
am sure that If anyone threw
in so much as crumb the ador-
ing crowd would draw and quar-
ter the offender on the spot.
When we saw Brumas he was
cute but sort of dirty little
bear. Snow white at the start. |
the minute he was able to get
in the water and come out and
roll in the dirt, he took on a
grayish tinge. All London is di-
vided into two camps. One camp |
wants to leave Brumas alone. |
The other is about to ask Par
lament to legislate for q bath
for Brumas.
How does Brumas react to all |
this alteration?
Takes it just like a little polar |
bear. Hasn't turned his head q |
bit. Pays no attention to the
staring thousands. but bedevils
his mother by crawling all over
her when she tries to nap, biting |
her ears. tugging at her paws, |
until she gives him q good shove |
and sends him into the pool.
It's really heartwarming to see |
the worlds biggest city un-
ashamedly give its heart to a |
frolicsome little polar bear.
