Red Cross Quota
Increased to Meet
Wur Exp. Program

HO 10y 0AA4
Former National Chairman
of the American Red Cross,
General George C. Marshall,
who is also Secretary of De-
Tense, set a 1851 Campaign
Goal of $85, 0O0, 10000 of which
St. Croix's share is 100000
Gen. David Sarnoff, National
Chairman of the 1851 fund,
says the budget is increased
because of:
l. Increased services made
necessary by the large expan-
sion of our armed forces. (2)
Procurement of blood for the
armed forces and for Civilian
Defense. (3) Necessary increase
in training for First Aid, Home
Nursing, and Nurses Aid.
"a Higher cost of all materials
and services cmpared to a
year ago.
Our local Campaign Chair
man, George Van Ripper, has
approximately described t h
Red Cross as the Essence Of
Community" 1t is Democracy
in action. Think of it, Ameri-
cans everywhere will volun-
tarily contribute 5000, 10000
a fund which will be spent in
the Interest of other Amcri-
cans. St. Croix's quota IS cheap
insurance against Disaster.
Should it strike in our Island
our premium would be return
ed over one thousand times.
But important to all Of us now
is the present grave emergen-
cy. Of this the Hon. Stuart w.
Symington says, whatever
the Importance of the Red
Cross in the past, as we face
up to realities of the world in
which we now live, that i'm
portance becomes even more
vital"

The old landscaping rule Of
emitting all shrub paintings from
the front yard that are not neces-
sary to enhance the home, is. like
most rules, subject to exceptions.
There are situations. particularly
in the suburban areas where space
permits, that need a shrub border
in the front yard. This may be
to screen off an undesirable view.
reduce the noise and dust from
passing traffic. to hide bank, or
to provide an attractive view from
"a picture" window.
The use OF shrub border in
front of the house will obviously
bring the house closer to the
sidewalk. whereas broad un-
broken expanse Of lawn tends to
set the house further away-cre-
|ates an impression of greater dis
lance. BY the same token. this
method Of landscaping would be
very unsatisfactory on the smaller
|city lot because there would be nc
room between q shrub border and
the foundation planting. Obvi-
ously. then. it can only be en-
|ployed on the larger lot, one on

Life in the Country
AMournfuI Calf Is No WeokIing
When 1t Comes to Hand Feedinq

There is nothing more mourn
full than a calf that has been sep
|arated from its mother.
It is best, I suppose. to take the
calf from the COW soon after birth.
1T is kinder that way, since the
calf. fed from the beginning by
hand, really nevera realizes it is
ian orphan.
We waited because it was the
easiest way at the time. and now
we are paying the price. There is
constant bawling out in the calf
Ipen, and 7 suppose TINS sort of
thing is going to keep up for days.
There also is the problem of
feeding. A 2-month-old calf is
not weakling. And in order to
feed it you have to catch it. hold
1t and force a nipple into its
mouth. That takes some doing.
I got along fine until the other
morning after an all-night rain.
There was a lot Of mud and the
ground was slick. The calf and I
went through a closed gate to-
gether. but the calf came out on
top and left me squirming in the
mud. That certainly was graft
tude for pail of nice warm milk.
I believe there is purpose be-
hind all of these difficulties with
animals. After a few days of
chasing, catching and wrestling,
everything will calm down and the
calf will get the idea. Then she
will cooperate.
And that is the idea. Then the
extra job Of feeding the calf will
appear so easy after all Of the
previous struggles, that 1t will
seem like no job at all. Those calf
Icapers. too, help take the monot-
lony out of endless farm Jobs. They
Iprovide the tang to the chores that
makes you look forward from day
to day to see what the animals
will come up with next time.
Friends of Dr. Hugh H. Bennett
will be glad to learn that his 10th
birthday next Sunday will not
mean the end of his career as chief
of the Soil Conservation Service.
Men cannot always mark their
age by the passing Of years. and
those who know DR.. Bennett do
not look on him as an old man
whose days of usefulness are over.
He is, on the contrary. a man of
extreme vitality-a vitality that is
reflected by the men who serve
with him in the Sos.
I first heard that DR.. Bennett
was to be retained past his re-
tirement date from one of his
fellow workers. I wish Doc could
have been there. for there was
real pleasure In this mans face
when he told me. It is a good
sign when the boss is really ap-
preciated.
At this time Of the year begin
looking forward to the return of
the barn swallows. It shouldn't

AS to the question of the spe-
cific campaign in Korea; as to
the casualties that are daily oc-
curing there, with our troops,

witnesses the casualties, is even
more impressed by what is
going on.
However. during some very
painful years, 1 had a daily ques-
ton of casualties from all over the

procedure. SO / can fully under
stand the reaction Of a COM
mander in Gen. MacArthur's posi-
ton. to the struggle in Korea
unless he could clearly see ar
early and victorious way out.

ried out and quite a number were
held in allegiance under the
changed conditions as being un-
wise measures to take in view of
the fact that we had greatly i'm
proved our situation in Korea.
That was joined with general
study from the National Security
Council. which had been under
way for about two weeks prior to
that in connection with the policy
we were to follow in Korea and
made a part of that.
The decision as to where the
action was no longer felt wise was
taken on the recommendation of
the Chiefs of Staff.
Chairman Russell-In other
words, the memorandum of Janu-
ary II, 1851, was never approved
in toto by the National Security
Council?
Secretary Marshall-It was not.
Chairman Russell-Now, a copy
| of that memorandum was for
warded to Gen. Macarthur. Was
that sent to him for his informa-
ton or was it in the nature of an
order or authorization?
Secretary Marshall-It was
sent to him for his information
and was talked over with him by
Gen. Collins in person.
Chairman Russell-Was a COM

16 points to which you referred

i, Gen. Collins on his personal visit
Anyway, he received the entire
: document.
= Chairman Russell. You re-
= ferred to a message from Gen
Macarthur which related to the
morale of the men and battle
/, fatigue and other disabilities.
Did he suggest the withdrawal
from Korea in that message?
Secretary Marshall-He stated
; in one of his messages about that
, time that if he was not to be re-
inforced, if he was not to be per-
mitted to bomb into China. if he
were not permitted to establish
"a naval blockade of the China
coast and if he was not permitted
to use the Chinese Nationalist
troops from Formosa that under
those conditions he thought that
we would be probably forced to
. evacuate Korea.
Chairman Russell - Was the
message encrypted?
Secretary Marshall - Message

Chairman Russell-Was tht
message codif1ed? Is there an!
reason why that message coulc
, not be made available to thi'

Chairman Russell-Have they
met with any success?
Secretary Marshall--Not COM
Iplete success. Our own Govern
ment is engaged in complete
economic blockade. but we have
not been able to bring that about
with the other nations, except to
a limited extent.
| Chairman Russell-Have the
Joint Chiefs of Staff or you
taken up with the Security Coun-
Gil the question of a complete
economic blockade to be enforced
by United States naval forces on
China?
Discussed Before Council.
Secretary Marshall - That has
been discussed before the Security
Council. Particularly in
regard to that proposal of the
Joint Chiefs of Staff of January
t12, which Gen. Macarthur had
specifically referred to; that was
one of the items in that which
were to be taken if we found our
selves forced into a withdrawal
from Korea.
j Chairman RuSsell-Now, that
document of January IL to which
Iyou refer was discussed in the
!. Security Council?
i Secretary Marshall-Yes, sir.
Chairman Russell-Was it ap'
) proved by the Security Council?

ment went to the Security Council
at the same time that Gen. Collin
and Gen. Vandenberg went t.
. . Korea to report back to us wha
they thought the situation wa
> with regard to the morale of ou
forces, and the possibility of ou
having to exacuate Korea.
We were at our lowest point
., I might say, about January 9th t.
10th; and the message from Gen
Macarthur he was very Seri
ously concerned with the question
of the troops and their battl
fatigue, the length of time the.
had been held in, and the pros
poets that faced them with thes'
enormous hordes of Chimes
Communists troops.
Dherefore, this memorandum O.
January 18th was drawn up
which included some Is points O.
possible action, they termed it
tentative proposals.
| Then these two officers went owe
to Korea, and made a very com
plete investigation really ;
very remarkable reconnaissance
!, and they came back convinced tina
the morale was high and was in
creasingly building up every da
under Gen. Ridgway's Leadership
and that the situation was in tn
; way of changing very radically
which it did, because we cease,
to be on the defensive by the en-
of the month, and in February an
