LONDON. Mar. 15.-The ele-

Princess Margaret was locked in
the lift for an embarrassing five

gay about it.
1t happened at Olympia, the

the gates refused to bulge
Margaret suggested that they
go back up again. The operator
tried, but nothing moved. He be-
gan to shout for engineers. All
he attracted was a crowd, which
did nothing but stare.
Maybe they'll feed us through
the bars" the Princess suggested
After a few more moments some
men tugged around the elevator
and the doors finally opened. Red
faced exhibition officials and re-
porters were trapped with her
Margaret walked from the ele-
vator over to admire a brida'

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Mar. IS
New turbo-jet engines so powerful
that four of them will replace the
six now in use on the XB-47
bomber are rolling through assem-
bly, lines here.
Hailed as the most powerful jet
engine for which a production
contract has been let, the big sleek
poWerhouse was unveiled at the
Allison division plant of General
Motors here yesterday.
It's introduction to proud en-
ployes, General Motors officials
and top-ranking Air Force and
Navy figures, was timed with COM
pletion of Allison's 10,00Oth jet
engine of the type currently pow-
ering the Korean war-tested F-84s
and F-86s.
The new engine, the J35-A-23
super-jet, was no sooner brought
out from under it's gold brocade
unveiling cloth than it went under
Air Force security wraps. Its
thrust figure and highly touted
fuel economy a secret. the new
unit is almost so per cent longer

than current models, although in
diameter it is the same size.
While it is Allison-designed ant
built, two-thirds of its component
parts come from smaller subcon-
tractors for final assembly at this
plant.
Speakers here yesterday hailed
this point as "a symbol of Alneri-
can teamwork"
High fuel consumption of jet
engines has always been one of
the problems on construction OF
jet aircraft. With the fuel econ
omy of the new one, plus the saw
ing in weight by use of four in
stead of six engines, range of the
XB-47 Is expected to be substan-
TALLY greater than current models
The first experimental model
powered by the four new Allisons
is scheduled to fly later this year
Amid yesterdays fanfare. cne
speaker expressed the hope that
this engine will not be used in
the need of war.
But, let's hope if it is, it will
| be better than anything our COM
petitors can turn out"

HOLLYWOOD:
Unpleasant Publicity

Hollywood, that land of make-be-
lieve so often in the headlines, ap-
peared in line for considerable more
publicity, but of an unpleasant ma
ture
The new avalanche began to roll
when the house un-American activi-
ties committee announced plans to
investigate certain Hollywood actors
that would Inevitably" lead to
revival of the communism-in-Holly-
wood case.
In l947 the committee investigated
Communist influences in the movie
capital in long and sensational hear
ings with the result that 10 writer's
and directors were convicted of
contempt of congress for refusing to
say whether they had ever been
Communists. All went to jail.
The. new hearings may do consid-
cradle good, but as in all such in
vestigations, some innocent people
can expect to be hurt.

Careful Scot

Jock MacGregor was shy young
Scot, anxious to get married but
hardly knowing how to go about it.
At length he thought he saw his OPP
portunity in a dispatch printed in
the local newspaper 1t told of a
comely young woman who had
agreed to marry any man who would
pay her fathers debts.
Jock called on the money-minded
lady, found her to be the pampered
daughter of an indulgent widowed
father, very pretty and most agree
able. A match seemed very much in
prospect, until Jocks native caution
moved him to ask question the
young woman dared not answer.
'Lassie," the cagey sutton re-
marked, before marry you, and
pay your fathers debts, tell me this:
"Who got your old man in debt in
the first place."

Case In Point
by Jim RHoDYmR,

We don't think any writer could
make better case for sportsmen's
general support of the American
Wildlife Federation than its own
promotion staff in connection with
the 1851 sale of wildlife conservation
stamps. So, here it's:
Dear Friend of America:
Everyone has an interest! Pre-
serving Americas RESOURCES is
ours!
We know that it is yours too, be-
cause you have helped support our
activities by your past purchases
of Wildlife Conservation Stamps.
With your help during the past
year, we have
Stimulated America to a greater
interest in our wildlife and other
natural resources by initiating and
sponsoring vital conservation legis-
lation.
Distributed thousands of free edu-
cational leaflets and pamphlets
throughout the length and breadth
of the United States.
Produced and distributed addi-
tional aids for teaching conserva-
ton.
Expanded our Legislative Report
ing Services until it is the national
ly recognized source of information
on conservation legislation.
Assisted our affiliated state or
ganization in the advancement of
their local conservation programs.
These accomplishments were
made possible through your con-
tinued purchases of Wildlife Con-
servation Stamps. They are painted
by Americas foremost nature art
lists exclusively for our use. These
colorful stamps may be used for
your nature study reference; on
your personal letters and papers;
as gifts or rewards to children; or
as donations to schools and hospi-
tails. The cost is still only $10O per
sheet or as much more as you
would care to give. Won't you help
us again this year? You do so much
for SO little!
Very sincerely yours,
Claude D. Kelley, President

PRICES:
Reach Record Level

The American public found itself
in a strange position, one which it
did not entirely understand and
which presented frightening posi-
bilities for the future.
The situation began to develop
some weeks ago with the enactment
of price-Wage controls, which most
people believed would halt the cost
of living spiral. Shortly after the
"freeze" went into force, numerous
loopholes in the plan were made
known by which many foods could
jump from to 200 per cent.
Later the gullible public was told
by the bureau of lator statistics that
wholesale prices reached new rec
ord high despite the ''price freeze"
The main. increases we're in prices
of food and farm products.
This, of course, caused immediate
rumblings in labor's ranks. In turn,
Secretary of Agriculture Brannan
defended farmers against t h
charges that farm prices were "un-
reasonably high"
ECONOIlllC StdDlllZdllOH duIlllIllS-
traitor Eric Johnston, who has the
most thankless job in the United
States today, issued statement
saying that prices may. advance
few more months and finally level
off in mid. ummer.
The average American had no de-
sire to see any one group of the ma
TONS economy - farmers, laborers,
manufacturers - unjustly bear the
greatest burden of price and wage
controls. But the average American
was worried about how far he could
stretch his pay check without dras-
tically lowering his standard of liv-
ing. He wanted to know if he could
stand it until the midsummer level
ing-off took place?

KOREA:
Reds Counteruttuck

With stunning force and typical
blood-curdling methods, complete
with suicidal charges, bugle-blow-
ing, bell ringing, whistle-tooting,
and drum-beating, Chinese Com
munists launched a counterdrive
against U.N. forces in central Ko-
rea.
The counterattack stalled the
U.N. advance that began late in
January and which had approached
Seoul.
Eighth army officers reported ele-
ments of nine Chinese divisions and
six Korean divisions were used in
the counterattack.
At full strength this would mean
as many as 10000 to 100000 men.
However, heavy casualties had been
inflicted on the Communists since
the UN. offensive began. Officials
claimed Red casualties, by ground
action alone, totaled 80,121.
Some military observers believed
Communist armies in Korea had
been hurt so seriously in recent
weeks they could not continue an
offensive for long period Of time.
Others, however, were cautious with
their predictions, remembering the
overwhelming manpower available
to the Communist cause.
Morale was reported high among
U.N. troops during recent weeks
as they pushed slowly toward the
38th parallel.

Moose or Elk?

II wish, sometimes, that big game
hunters would study up on their
game Identification before they
take to the woods"
These we're the sentiments of
Gene Sherman, district warden
supervisor from Bozeman, in a re-
port to the Montana fish and game
department.
With the annual elk hunt in full
swing, anything that walks near
Gardiner seems to be fair game,
Sherman lamented. Besides several
hunting casualties among the nim-
rods themselves. 26 moose have
been mistakenly shot for elk.
Of this number, eleven were dis
covered in time to salvage the
meat, after having been left by the
near-sighted sportsmen. The re-
mainder of the 26 we're in such
state that the meat was not to be
saved.
Sherman concluded that the
illegal slaughter of moose in that
area is the result of hunters not
being sure of their targets before
the squeeze of the fatal shots.

BUDGET:
CONGRESS Accepts Dare

President Truman in presenting
his budget to congress said it was
a good tight one and dared the leg
islators to trim it. Evidently con-
gress is going to accept Mr.. Tru-
mans dare.
Several Democrats and Republi-
cans at least have promised to do
SO. Senator George of Georgia,
chairman of the powerful senate
finance committee which will han
die the tax bills to pay for the bud
get, said it could be cut SIS to Sc
billion without harm"
Senator Bridges of New Hamp-
shire, ranking Republican on the
senate appropriations committee,
termed the Presidents program "as
full of water as field of melting
snow" He urged the senate to
squeeze the water" out.
On the other hand, Senator Nc
Mahon of Connecticut asserted talk
of a Sc billion cut in nondefense
items was "fakery-it can't be
DONE"
Whatever Mr.. Humans motives
for making the dare, he certainly
stirred up opposition in congress.
The battle may be bitter before it
is over.

FARMERS:
Must Help Curb Rockets

With the government order
limiting the number of slaughter
houses that will be permitted to OPP
crate and the amount Of livestock
they can butcher, it became appar-
ent it is going to take patriotism
down on the farm to keep meat off
the black market.
While big and middle-size slaugh-
terers who provide most of the
steaks and chops for the dinner
table will be licensed, several hun
bred thousand farmers who usually
butcher a few hogs, sheep for
their ewn consumption or for local
sale are exempt.
While these farmers right now
don't account for much of the meat
eaten in the United States, they are
a potential headache for price con-
trollers. During World War II many
farmers sat up their own barn.
yard slaughterhouses with no more
equipment than a tree, rope, an
ak, and butcher knife.
1t wasn't very sanitary, but plen-
ty of racketeers were willing to
buy the meat at fancy prices and
truck it into the cities for sale at
even fancier black market prices.
Price control officials are afraid
that some farmers exempted from
the slaughtering regulation might
be lured into illicit butchering by
the prospect of easy money. The
job of keeping check on the farmers
would require an army Of enforce
ment agents, and is impossible I'M
der present conditions. For that
reason it will take a lot Of patriot
ism down on the farm if present
slaughter regulations are to be en-
forced.

JAPAN:
Progress Toward Treaty


Preliminary steps for a peace
treaty between the United States
and Japan appeared successfully
completed with the announcement
that the basic points of a defense
agreement to be guaranteed by
American power has been agreed
upon.
Japan has become more impor-
tant to American security since the
Communist plan of conquest in Asia
became clear. The proposed peace
treaty hinged on future security
measure in Japan.
The security guarantee includes
stationing of us. armed forces in
and about the country. No time
limit will be specified and us.
troops might be stationed in Japan
for many years.
And while the arrangement lasts,
an attack on Japan would be con-
sidered the same as an attack on
the United States.
American policy has leaned heavi-
ly toward a free and strong Japan
as balancing factor in the Pacific.
The United States does not want to
place heavy economic or financial
burdens or major commercial dis
abilities upon Japan.
In this respect, however, the
Philippines, Australia and New
Zealand may not agree fully with
the United States.

BIG-FOUR:
Meeting Proposed

The United States, Britain and
France were reported willing to hold
a meeting of the Big Four foreign
ministers in Paris sometime during
March, Whether or not the Russians
would consent is another matter. No
one is willing to make guess.
One of the main problems of such
a meeting would be to get the four
nations to agree before the meeting
took place on just what they would
talk about Britain and France APP
peared willing to have deputies Of
the Big Four meet and work out
an agenda. The United States want
ed to list some of the topics that
should be included.
The United States wants to talk
about the rearmament of western
Germany, eastern Germany, the
Soviet Union, and the Communist
satellites in the Balkans. Russia
would never consent to such an
agenda.
1t became apparent from the ap-
proach of all four governments that
nobody expected much to come
out of another Big Four meeting.
They may meet but it will produce
nothing except more frayed nerves
and propaganda blasts.
