EisenhOwer''s Advice
Washington Post)

Washington Post
 General Eisenhower has made it clear that he served merely as the carpenter rather than as the architect" of the 13-billion-dollar military budget Thus his assent if it could be called assent to the reduction the budget below the 15-billon-dollar budget was reluctant At the same time, he also has made it clear that he is jngoist. He streses the necessary dovetaing of military strength With a healthy national economy, and he emphaticaly does not stand for 70 Air Force groups. T believe he sald that you are fairly well the linethe line between economy and security" An additional outlay of 800 million dollars for Air Force procurement, antsuo- marine and Alaskan defense would bring military strength to point where it could meet needs for the indefinite future.
 Such testimony from one of the country's most respected military statesmen effectively answers the cries of the mtarsts who camor for garrison state to match Russia. It does not say that the present budget is perfect but does say that in the main the Johnson economies have been good What then, of the increase General Eisenhower suggests? This news already has depored the insufficient effort being mt on antisubmarine research Likewise, we believe that Alaskan defense including the radar screen war rant urgent attention, and we hope that the House will restore the cuts made in these items by Its Appropriations Committee.

 The British, when asked why they send arms to the Arab states, point out that the Arabs have upequi- vocally declared themselves on the side of Great Britain and the Uni ted States in the cold war, where as Israel has publicly announced strict neutrality The Girl Scouts of America have long done a patriotic job sending supplies to European school children. This is the kind of people -to-people friend ship which helps prevent war in the long run.

Who s,.id That?

Mans memory is short. It was only a few short years ago that many distinguished and conserva- tive Americans were praising Russ ia as a wartime partner, and urg- ing cooperation after the war.
 Printed below is what some of these Americans said. Ii you read their quotations while holding your hand over the names at the bot tom of the column, it's doubtful if you could guess the authors However, printed below are the names of the men or newspapers by number, who made these state ments. See how many you car guess correctly.
 1. "The world situation at the present time indicates that the hopes of civilization rest on the worthy shoulders of the courageous Russian Army The scale and grandeur of this effort marks it as the greatest military achieve ment of all history!"
 ?. "The continued cooperation between the United States ano Russia is so essential to future world peace that no remaining diff ferences can be permitted to inter- fere with it"
 3. We can do business with Stalin! And that business will help our political relations with the Russians, besides . .. A tenth oi the human beings of the world are on the way to higher living standards in Russia"
 4. If Europe moves all the way to Communism, it will not be be- cause of Russian intervention, but because of the obstructionist tac- tics of die-hard reactionaries."
 5. Tn Russia's fight to survive as a nation lies the great hope of the world for early peace"

case has been delayed, perhaps in- definitely, on the ground tna' Sachs is too i'll to stand trial.
 Doctors retained by Sachs hav' stated that he is suffering iron advanced epilepsy that the ordea of a trial would kill him. An in- dependent doctor, however, not con- nected with the Sachs family, states that although Sachs suffers from epilepsy, trial would not en- danger his life. He is 51 years old.
 All this, incidentally, came to light after the attorney from Kan sas City was retained.
 Note 1.-Treasury and Justice Department officials do not relish hastening the death of any evader. But it has almost got so that an old man or an invalid can violate the tax laws with impunity-pro- vided he can get a doctor to state that a criminal trial would en- danger his life.
 Note 2.-Last January President Truman sent message to Con- gress in which he took the laud- able position of urging full and vigorous income-tax collection with prosecution of tax frauds. Prob ably he does not realize it, but telephone calls by his assistants to the Justice and Treasury Depart ments frequently nullify that mes- sage to Congress.

The GRE Anti-Discrimination
Committee, Mrs. Frieda Davidson,
Chairman, meets every first Tues
day night of the month at 500
pm. in the office of the Christian
Friends for Racial Equality, 5145
Arcade Bldg. This committee
attempts to work out solutions
for specific problems of racial and
religious discrimination that are
reported to it, and any interested
person is invited to sit in" at the
committee meetings and see what
goes on.
One of the projects being under
taken by the committee at the
present time is the formation of
'Letter-A-Week Club" The pur-
pose is to enlist as many people
as possible who will agree to write
letter every week on some phase
of civil rights with the understand
ing that they will be informed
each week by the committee con-
corning whom to write and about
what. Sometimes the letter will
be sent to legislators, urging sup
port of specific legislation for civil
rights, and sometimes they will be
to individuals who have taken
steps that call for either common
dation or criticism.
There are many people who by
their own initiative write such let
tiers faithfully, but the members
of the committee recognize that
it's easier for the average indi-
vidual to accomplish task if he's
on a team in which all members
are functioning together, and if

sues? If SO. call the CFRE office,

By the Associated Press

The Army said yesterday that
although reservists are continuing
to receive forms for the credit
point system, originally intended
for use in determining priority

program itself is being held in
allegiance"
Reservists stin must fill out the

purposes. an Army spokesman
said.
The Army announced on Octo-
ber % its intention to use the

ton the war situation worsened.

Virginia Farmers Earn
S26.5 Million More in so

Virginia farmers this year are
getting more cash from market
ings than last year.
An Agriculture Department re-
port shows receipts for the first
10 months this year were $346,-
955,0O0, or $26. 100000 more than
the s32o,455, 900 received in the
first 10 months of 1949.
This gain was made despite a
lag behind 1949 during the first
part of this year.
The national farm income was
reported to be still behind that
for the January through October
period last year.
Virginia farmers received more
for crops, but less for livestock
during the 10 months as COM
pared to the 1949 period.
Crop receipts were $165, ,644 900,

Mr.. Wallace said he believed the

chamber from a ledge in the up

But, he said, that theory doesn't
coincide with known facts about
Indian tribes that once inhabited
the area. The Sierra Miwok tribe,
for instance, either cremated or
buried its dead. They believed the
caverns were frequented by giant
who carried human victims into
the depths to devour them.

East Germany is at the moment
plugging away for an au-Ger-

feel the same way.
Whether Ulbricht will return
with some authority to bargain
on this point remains to be seen.
