Along the Iron Curtain
Fanatic NdtiondIism Famed
By Moscow Stirs Middle East

No longer does the common mar,
accept the lot into which he was
born. taking it for granted that
things must be as they are.
Youth feels the urge of the pres
ent and the future. An evidence
is the increase in education. AL
these countries are developing
modern school systems. Where il
literacy was the rule, and taken
for granted. great strides are being
made toward literacy.
Orderly Change Possible.
Interest in social betterment Is
other evidence. That an ordered
social change is widely regarded
as possible is significant in these
lands where poverty and disease
have been accepted as the will oi
Allah.
The disease of extreme and fa-
natical nationalism, which has af-
fected every country in the Middle
East, except Turkey, presents the
West with its most difficult handi-
cap in dealing with this area to
organize it for defense against
Russia. Every move we may make
will be examined with extreme sus-
Ipicion, and responsible officials will
hesitate to act in the best interests
of their countries for fear any CO.
operation with Europe or the
United States will make them
marks for fanatical bullets.
1t is this reporters con-
sidered opinion that little military
strength can be expected from the
Middle East in the event of a
world war. except from Turkey,
and perhaps from little Jordan
and Israel. These sources OF
strength will be treated in later
articles.

THE NEED is MORE APPARENT THAN EVER

Writing ending to a successful worth
wise offers the opportunity to give credit to those who
believed in the worhness of the and dscret the
many ambiguous statements maintained by those who
directly opposed to the issue.
In any contest there must emerge winner and loser
and to participate in issue where there likely to be
difference of opinion good loser will always anticipate
that possibility and with defeat hope day to rise to
greater proportion.
And so the outcome of the recent election clearly
indicated the opinions expressed by the majority of the
voters on the proposed memorial park But not
whelmingly predicted by member of an agricultural
group who unhestatngy stated the issue would receive
300 votes in the entire county 1t received handsome
complimentary vote of 1860
In fact, the results vindicae the contention of the
Citizens Committee - if the issue could have been
presented under favorable conditions the people of the
county would have voted the for passage
fifty-five percent. M
Three factors definitely governed the of the
memorial park to honor the of the soldier dead
of all The first and foremost objection raised by the
voters where will the park be located" Naturally they
entitled this advance information The disappoin
ment the Citizens Committee received in the
uated plans left them rather position when
answering the question There reply it would be
matter for the trustees to decide
Secondly, factor that had important bearing on
the issue the recent increase in general taxes placed
the people OF the country and thirdly the approach
of countrywide bond issue for the first time in many
many years would bring for people the county
to look unfavorably on the project
The Citizens Committee composed of Clarence Carter

deserves great deal of credit in attempting to bring into
reality project in the form of memorial park for the
people of Noble county.
The Noble county commissioners, in cooperating with
the committee in making possible the bond issue must
also be commended for their interest and work
The electorate in Belle Valley to the forefront and
Overwhelmingly approved memorial park bond ISSUE
they did their local grade school issue The need of
organized recreation for the youth apparently the
