WASHINGTON = simultaneously
with the Korean crisis two top
British defense experts arrived in
Washington for talks with Defense
Secretary Louis johnson. The fact
that they came as the Korean
crisis broke was an accident, but
nevertheless it was significant that,
simultaneously, Peter Godfrey Rob-
erts, conservative member of Par
lament. urged use of the atomic
bomb against North Korea.
For it is to discuss British use
of the atomic bomb that the two
experts were ordered to Washing
ton.
They are: Air Marshal Sir Ralph
Cochran, Vice Chief Marshal of
the Royal Air Force, and Dr.. Rich
ard Cochran, an atomic scientist.
The two men were sent on direct
orders of Prime Minister Attlee
following a meeting of the British
cabinet, to discuss future ues OF
the atomic bomb by Britain. What
they propose is:

structions Issued for Civ

BY MURLIN b. SPENCER

ANCHORAGE, Alaska, July In
Steel helmeted troops. carrying
rifles, pistols and gas masks. are on
the alert at Alaska's air and mill
tary bases. They are taking no
chances of possible surprise attack.
Tanks and additional combat
troops are expected to augment Air
Force and Infantry soldiers at the
big Elmendorf Air Force base here
Given even a little warning I'VE
could put up hell of fight right
now" said 1t. Gen. Nathan Twin
ing. silver-haired commander in
chief of the Alaskan Command.
This wartime preparedness ex-
tends on long line running gener-
ally southwestward from Ladd Air
Force base at Fairbanks in the
northern interior to Kodiak at the
western entrance to the Gulf of
Alaska. This will be Alaska's line Of
defense in the event of an attack.
Since Americans started shoot
ing in Korea. all troops in the
Alaskan area. even service troops,
are being trained in the use of
ground weapons. All have been
assigned positions 10 take in case
of an emergency.
All Precautions Taken
All precautions are being taken
against the possibility of sabotage
Or fifth column activity from within.
1t is obvious that primary pre-
catitions are being taker, against the
chance of attack by paratroops. 1t
is for this that Twining awaits
tanks, which are highly effective
against troops dropped from the
air.
With even brief warning. Twin
ing believes a real fight could be put
up against such an attack. Jet
fighters would slash at troop
carrying planes in the air and
ground troops would battle the in
vaders who reached the ground.
More Troops Needed
But it also is obvious that to be
sure of holding, the overall COM
mander of all Alaska forces could
use more troops and more and
heavier equipment
To the north and west of the
Fairbanks Kodiak line. the defenses
are another story.
At Nome, near the Boring Strait
where Alaskans can look across the
water toward Russian territory
barely 100 miles away. inactivation
of the Air Forces Marks Field is
continuing.
There, where Russians took de.
livery of American planes in World
War II and flew them to Siberia,
drove past long lines Of nearly
deserted barracks and there were
no defenses of any kind.
1t is apparent that the American
command considers this area indie
feasible and its airfield, too small
for heavy bombers. of little more
than nuisance value to any enemy

CHOOSE HYMN
FOR FEBRUARY
80 Worship the King" Chosen
by Hymn of Month
Committee
BY SIR ROBERT GRANT

The hymn chosen by the Hymn
of the Month Committee of the Ma
tional Federation of Music Clubs
for the month of February is 20
Worship the King, by Sir Robert
Grant. The words We're written in
1888 and are inspired by the six
days of creation as recorded in
Genesis I. Sir Robert is remember
ed as the member of Parliament
from Inverness, Scotland, who in
troduced a bill granting rights of
the Jew, in favor Of which Nc
Cauley, the historian. made his
first speech in that legislative
body. Sir Robert served as govern
or of India from 1884 to 1888.
Names used for the deity in this
hymn are King, Defender, Redeem
er, Maker, Shield, Ancient of Days,
Friend, the use of which brings out
the fact that the thought of dis
tant creator also can be an intim-
ate, tender friend. The tune Lyons
is an arrangement from the music
of Michael Haydn, brother of the
famous composer Joseph Haydn.
Michael was an all round musician,
known in turn as a boy soprano,
violinist, pianist, and later as an
organist and chorister. The tune is
essentially akin to the old plain
song and is sung with free rhythm
and occasional pauses. 1t should
not be sung with hurry-up. CATCH
breath liveliness, but should be de-
livered in hearty, traditional
style.
o Worship the King
o worship the King, all glorious
above,
o gratefully sing His power and
His love;
Our Shield and Defender, the An
cient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded
with praise.
o tell of His might, o sing of His
grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose can
opy spacef
His chariots of wrath the deep
thunderclouds form,
And dark is His path on the wings
of the storm.
Thy bountiful care what tongue
can recite?
1t breathes in the air, it shines in
the light,
It streams from the hills. it des-
cends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and
the rain.
Frail children of dust, and feeble
as frail,
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee
to fail;
Thy mercies how tender! how firm
to the end!
Dur Maker, Defender, Redeemer,
and Friend. Amen

Most OF us have no conception Of
what a billion dollars amounts to and
when we speak of a $50 billion dollar
debt which is approximately what our
Federal debt is today, it is q figure
beyond our comprehension.
This is one way of understanding
what 2GO billion dollars in debt
means. Take out your watch and look
at the second hand. BY dividing our
national debt by 1000 years. then
dividing this by 365 days in the year,
and then again by "a hours and next
by 90 minutes and finally by go sec
onds, we come out with net debt of
S41O for every second Of time since
Christ was born up until the year
1000. As you are reading this, your
share Of the national Federal debt
has increased by over 10 dollars.
Speaking Of debt, it was disclosed
recently by Chairman Written, of a
House appropriations b-Committee
which was conducting hearings on
Agriculture matters, that the Agri-
culture Department spent S27 $40 for
a two weeks hire Of an airplane that
cost $GG53 when bought from the
War Assets Administration. William
L. Popham, Assistant Chief of the
Bureau Of Entomology and Plant
Quarantine, admitted it cost $3.50 an
hour for spreading grasshopper bait
as against $3.50 an hour for a COM
mercial plane to do the same job.
Then it was disclosed that investi-
gators had also found this same
bureau had various automobiles,
some Of which had not been used for
three or four years. In the Denver
office alone there were PIT automo-
biles, so of which had not been used
during l949 and some of the trucks
had been parked in the open for over
three years. The bureau had bought
new trucks during that period with
out trading in the old ones. 1t was
brought out during the hearings that
lanchers charged the bureau with
dumping the "bait" and not spread
ing it. At one bait-mixing station,
truck driver and helpers were haul
ing sacks so yards while other men
were doing nothing and the rancher
further charged that the control men
rode around in sedans in parties of
from 8 to men inspecting grass
hoppers while at an ailield en-
pIoyes spent six or eight minutes in
half hour folding empty sacks and

the rest Of the time watched the
plane.
1t is interesting to get the view
points of other people in regard to
the United States. The French Social
list newspaper "Le Populaire" recent
~ declared: "The average American
worker under Capitalism is the best
fed best dressed, and most literally
provided with Injuries of any in the
world; in fact, he had a purchasing
power about four or five times great
err than his French counterpart"
Godfrey Crowther, editor of the
British Economist, said in a broad
cast that under socialism the build
ing worker cannot afford to live in
the house he builds; manual work
er cannot buy a suit for a half weeks
wage; d car costs three times as
much as it did before the war; taxes
and high prices eat up income and
the incentive to work has gone. He
claims Britain's downfall came when
the people were taught to think more
of full employment and pensions
than efficiency and competition. He
stated the government is to
blame concentrating on getting taxes,
Indifferent to whether or not it was
killing the goose of efficiency that
laid the golden eggs Of revenue.
We've got to return to competition.
Competition is fighting word.
America is rich because of competi-
ton
Farmers might be interested in the
case of the farmer in New York who
was allotted Is acres on which to
grow wheat. He wrote the Agricul-
