government of Pakistan already
has purchased 10000 spindles -
100000 from the United Kingdom
and $4,000 from Japan. A purchas-
ing mission is now in Japan nego-

Maria Riva is Marlene Dietrich'sI
daughter, but she's making her
own way as rising new dramatic
star.
The wide-eyed, beautiful young
blond, mother of Marlene's two
grandchildren, has just signed a.
contract with the Co.
lumbia Broadcasting System.
Maria regards the contract as
proof she is making good on her
own.
Il think I must have proven I
was some kind of an actress to
get it." she said in an interview.
IT don't believe any one now
thinks I am trading on my moth
er's reputation"
Under her contract, Maria takes
"a role in many of the Studio
One productions on CHS tele-
vision.
Maria admits it was mother who
gave her a start. Maria was born
in Berlin, but raised in Holly
wood, where Marlene sent her
to Max Reinhardt's Dramatics
School.
Reinhardt persuaded her that
her forte was serious dramatic
roles and Maria says, Il am sure
he was right. I haven't the tim
ing for comedy parts"
Maria met her husband, Bill
Riva. who is of Italian extraction,
at Fordham University. where he
teaches scenic design. She was
teaching dramatics at the univer-
sity. They have two children,
Michael, 3. and Peter, 18 months
Il took four years off for the
children" she said. land then I
felt I would like to get back to
work. I particularly wanted to
get into television because I liked
the medium and the studios are
here near home"
The tall, shapely Maria has
found her mothers career a con-
tinual challenge. The main diff
Guilty in being the progeny of some
one famous is that it is necessary
to prove oneself more quickly.
Maria feels strongly that no one
in such a position should use the
family name. She never used her
mothers name or that of her
father, Rudolph Sieber. the former
film director in Germany. who is
now in the export business in New
York. Before she was married she

Nickel is but one of a number of war ma

titles sufficient to the needs of the present
emergency. The subcommittee puts the blame
not only on the Munitions Board, but on the
Budget Bureau Congress and the people as a
whole. Senator Johnson aptly summed it up
when he reported that the country's most critical

A lone startling lay dead on the hotel

Probably not enough to worry over
but at least two persons stopped and
looked down at the stiff black figure.
He was one of the starlings that didn't

The rest of them were, at that hour,

They would be back in the evening, to
enjoy the hospitality of the hotel

But one of their comrades would be
missing.
Some people claim that birds vanish
when they die.
Certainly very few of them are seen.
This may be because of their COM

With few cardinals for contrast, and
an occasional jay, the backyard bird
picture may be happy one, even if the
number of species are few.
The bold startling, meaty and dark,
is fed easily with bread slices.
Often bread becomes hard, though not
exactly stale. These do well for startling
food. They should be held under the
cold water spigot for few seconds.
A dip in milk, of course, adds more
food value.
If all this seems too much trouble for
starlings, then the hard slices of bread
may be thrown out for them. They will
manage them in their own way.

favorite bird. It has always been so.
Winging their way over Europe, these
'blackbirds" draw the attention of all

Part of this is due to, the fact that
over there the starlings are not so nu-
merous, and make no problems such as
we have here.
Natural enemies, including owls and

many starlings.
Finding conditions in America much
to their liking, the birds have multiplied
tremendously.
At the same time. they have built up
entirely new migration routes here a

Korean Questions

There are many things concerning the

1t has just been announced that the
North Koreans have an army of about
100000 now in the field, with an addi-
tional 100000 reserves in training. Yet
the South Koreans have only 100000 in
the field. After the total defeat and cap
ture of the bulk of the North Korean
Army. it is difficult to see how they could
still have SO many troops in the field.
And it is still more incomprehensible
why the South Koreans have by now
not been able to place at least an
equal number in the field South Korea
has twice the population of North Korea.
Why cannot it raise twice the army?

Too Much CompIocency

With nickel an indispensable item In our
military stockpiling program, and most of our
sources of supply outside the country, 1t is hard
to account for the complacency which the Senate
Armed Services Preparedness Subcommittee en-
countered during an inquiry. Our experience in
World War II showed the urgency of maintaining
q large stockpile of this critical metal At no
time during that war were we able to keep more
than a two months supply on hand. Yet, with a
new war under way in the Far East and a world
wide conflict threatened, the Senate group found
that the Nation faces serious shortage of nickel,
with little immediate prospect of an increased
supply. The nickel stockpiling program, the sub
committee asserted in report "has been con-
Quoted with far too much complacency"
Nickel has assumed even more Importance in
this emergency than during the late war, because
Of the development of jet fighters and bombers.
Nickel is an essential ingredient of the tough
steel needed to Withstand the high temperatures
of jet powerplants. We are the worlds largest
consumer Of nickel. yet we produce hardly any
worth speaking of. Our chief reliance is on a
foreign monopoly, the international Nickel Co.
Of Canada, Ltd, which produces IS per cent of
the worlds supply of the metal. Efforts to induce
this firm to expand production capacity to care
for emergency demands have thus far brought
no results. The Canadian supply seems to have
reached fixed level at a time when our war
plants are seeking more and more nickel for
planes and guns.
With this bleak situation staring us in the
face it would be natural to assume that every
other possible source of nickel supply would be
exploited to the limit. But Senator Lyndon
Johnson's subcommittee was shocked to dis

largest nickel-producing plants in the world in

THERE'S nothing quite so hard to hide
l. as an atomic energy plant. Yet some
Americans feel the Atomic Energy Com
mission is talking too freely about its
installations. especially the new ones.
Others more Immediately affected are
just as sure they are entitled to know
about the plants in general terms. In
the latter group are those now being
called upon to shift their homes, farms.
businesses or jobs from plant areas. or
to live as good neighbors in the vicinity
of installations which might seem overly
sinister If not explained to certain ex-
tent.
Informed advocates of a tighter Sc
curity clamp are ready to admit the Rus
slams undoubtedly knew, or could have
learned on their own, everything the Acc
has announced about it's plant-construc-
tion plans.
They argue. however, that the official
announcement of this sort of informa-
ton may give our enemies chance they
would not otherwise have to check, and
therefore to rate. the reports of their
spies in this country. A spy, for in
stance. who had his earlier reports con-
f1rmed by Acc announcements might be
taken more seriously when he later re-
ported on things which were not an
nounced.
A good deal of the alarm of those
writing to newspapers and members of
Congress for more censorship springs
from the fact that the projected Sa-
vannah Rher plant has been widely ad-
vertised as 'hydrogen-bo bomb plant"
This, the record shows, cannot be at
tributed to the Acc, which has tried for
weeks to correct this misconception. 1t
would be as inaccurate. an Acc spokes-
man says, to dub the South Carolina
plant an "H-bomb factory" as to call a
plant making INT block buster bomb
factory"
There is no information whatever on
which to base the assumption that H.
bombs eventually will be manufactured
and assembled on the Savannah, even II
the material being sought is found
feasible"
The Acc has never even revealed
