Irish Embassy Regrets
Air Training in Derry

The Embassy of Ireland gave
out a statement here today de-
claring the Irish Governments
grave concern and deep regret"
that the British Admiralty has
invited The Netherlands to send a
naval air squadron for training in
Derry in Northern Ireland.
The statement summarized views
stated in Dublin by Sean Mcbride,
Irish Minister for Internal Affairs,
the embassy announced.
Mr.. Mcbride protested against
"Britain's exercise of sovereignty
over any part of Ireland. The
sending of military forces for oc-
cupation or training purposes to
territory which, to put it mildly
is disputed territory is contrary to
normal international usage" he
said.
''The partition of Ireland and
the occupation of a portion of
Ireland. whether by British or
other troops in defiance of the
will Of the overwhelming majority
OF the Irish people, constitute a
clear infringement of the princi-
pies upon which democratic rule
rests" the statement charged
I'VE have at the moment, in
Korea. a tragic example of the
results that flow from the undem-
ocratic and unnatural partition
ofsa country"
Mr.. Mcbride said the Irish peo-
pie and government have the
highest regard for The Neither
lands and do not wish to see
them drawn into a position where
IN they would acquiesce in an in
fringement of the sovereignty of
the Irish people and of the funda-
mental principles of democracy. /"

Hickory-Horned Devils, because
their bodies are covered with
rows of spiny, black horns.
Since the caterpillarS are five
inches long and so well armed,
they look dangerous. But the
National Wildlife Federation
says they are really quite
harmless.
Along about September, the
Hickory-Horned Devil burrows
into the ground. There he
spends the winter and waits
for June to roll around. He
doesn't bother to wrap himself
in a cocoon, as some caterpil-
lars do, but slowly changes into
the next form of his life-the
pupa.
In June the pupa is ready
to force its way out of the
earth. The air and sunshine
help it to grow and change.
Soon it has the shape and
size of a full-groWn Regal
Moth, ready to lay eggs and
fit about during the long sum-
mer months.
Regal Moths live over a wide
area in the eastern half of the
United States. They are found
from Massachusetts, to Illinois,
and southwark to Texas and
Florida. Usually they stay near
forests where they can lay
their eggs and where their
caterpillars can have plenty of
leaves to eat.
This might lead some people
to think that Regal Moths are
destructive pests which harm
forests. The National Wildlife
Federation says this is not the
case. There are not enough
Regal Moths and caterpillars to
do any great harm.
They are simply interesting
eye-catching inhabitants of the
insect world. The leaves which
they devour are hardly missed,
and they themselves may fur
niSh a meal now and then for
hungry birds.

lines, and the Reds made counter thruts.
The us. army reported the Communists have staged a tremendous
bu1dup of armed forces since the cease-ire talks began and pointedy
expressed hope this was not a sign of bad faith.
Here again is evidence of Communist thinking and policy. Hanging
on the ropes when the peace talks started, the Reds took full advantage
of UN. letup in attack, to show good faith during the talks, to build up
their own military forces and supplies.
The Communists have moved more supplies near the front lines
than needed to maintain troops while the talks n underway. In adj
dihon, they have moved new units and thousands Of individual replace
ments south into the battle lines.
THE EUROPEAN FRoNT-Whfe there we're talks of peace in the
far east, the free nations prepared to meet aggression in Europe.
New plans for defense were announced by George C. Marshall,
secretary of defense, when he told congress the administration now plans
to have 400 900 U. S. troops in Europe in 1952-nearly double the number
previously estimated.
He also disclosed that US. allies have promised to have 25ooO0
men under arms next year and to be able to put five million men into
the field within 80 days after the outbreak Of any new war.
Marshall argued against any letdown in American defensive spirit
resulting from the Korean armistce talks and against any congressional
cuts in U. S. military aid to western Europe. He said he was deeply
shocked at what he termed the tragic" reaction of the American people
now that peace appears in prospect in Korea.
PRICE C~ONTROLS-Confuson and cynicism seems the only way to
describe the average home towners reaction to the price control bill
which congress has enacted. The confusion stems from the fact that
few congressman, if any, can give a complete and adequate description
of how the law will work. The cyncism stems, in great part, from III
belief that the debate on the issue was put on the record more for future
political effect than for the purpose Of clarifying the issues.
The bill permits some rolbacks on nonfarm goods and opens the
way for some increases. 1t extends wage, price, credit, rent and other
emergency controls through next June. But controls are eased in a
number of ways and the President got none of the additional authority
he asked.
The United Labor Policy Committee, m a up Of most big
organized labor groups, Immediately denounced the bill The committee
termed the bill "a calous betrayal OF the consumers OF tne natoh oy
the reactonary coalition which rules congress"
Administration leaders contend it is short OF what Is needed 10
combat initiation. Republicans say it is a good bill, II administered
properly.
