a pernicious assault.
Then she happily remembered.
Dear old Temp" she smiled to her
self. "He has remembered that wanted
to wash those back windows ever since
the painter was here and now he is
going to do it himself"
Picking up her blanket, she moved
into the front room, shutting all doors
Behind her.
She settled down. and soon was asleep.
She was dreaming of New Orleans in
the springtime, when all of sudden
her dreams were shattered by tre-
mendous clatter on the front porch.
"Dear old boy" she smiled sleepily.
"He is putting that storm window in
now"
After a time the tunult died down
but it was too late for any sleep.
She waited until all was quiet, then
came out into the hall, where she found
the door into the living room closed.
For some reason or other, this door was
seldom shut.
Opening it, she found Templeton
quietly reading a paper.
"Why did you close this door?" she
asked, sleepily.
Templeton Jones smiled quietly.

their tails stepped on
THAT old bundle of fur is pretty

Winks.
Jones tried being very still for time
by just staring into space. The house
was SO quiet it made him sleepy. He
could hear from far down the block the
screams of the Mott children at play.
He always wondered how their lungs
stood it.
Jones tried counting the various sounds
that came to his ears.
He heard the clock ticking in the
hall and the sound of dog barking
somewhere. He heard the little whir
when the refrigerator came on. He
heard the subdued roar of the oil burner
when it started up.
Hearing these things he decided upon
action. He remembered a job he had
to do on that back bedroom screen the
painter had stuck in.

Templeton Jones is ordinarily a quiet
man.
He is soft footed, for one thing, and
softly spoken, unless he gets angry.
Then he resembles cross between
top sergeant and an old fashioned rail-
way announcer.
Mostly. however, his life is on the
quiet side. He does not like noisy parties,
loudly barking dogs or radio in the bus.
A quiet man is Templeton Jones.

The other afternoon his good wife
thought she needed little rest.
Nov. Templeton," she said, IT think
will take little nap. Please don't
make any noise, will you?"
II never make much noise," replied
Jones. Sometimes ! might happen to
fall over chair, and that could make
little noise. I admit.
IT might step on Silver's tail and the
old fellow would undoubtedly put up
holler.
II might get the television too loud,
or knock frying pan off the wall when
I cook dinner, or cause a little noise
when chop down trees.

Action at Last on the Beiosco

The way seems to be cleared now for re-
turning the old Belasco theater to use as service
center, catering to men and women in uniform.

center and to put up the necessary funds. The
Commissioners, of course, should accept the

for this use under conditions that can be met
by Jess Larson, general services administrator.
Representative Klein of New York has in
troduced a bill authorizing and directing the
general services administrator to lease the old
theater building to the Commissioners, for use
as a service center. But developments have
shown that such legislation is unnecessary. The
more practical plan is that the USO take over

which other agencies lack, and will operate the
center under the general sponsorship of the

Having known and worked with Mr.

ReqionoI Transit Problems

The Federation of Citizens Associations, in
recommending creation of an interstate commits
sion to study transportation needs of the Wash.
ington Metropolitan Area, has called attention to
a growing regional problem of major proportions.
The Federal dispersal program will impose new
burdens on the areas various transit systems and
bring into being new array Of fare, route and
service issues 1t is not too to begin studying
these problems on broad basis.
The federation has proposed legislation to
set up commission representing the District of
Columbia, Virginia and Maryland to inquire into
the adequacy of existing transportation
facilities the willingness and ability of present
carriers to expand their services as needs require
the advisabity of recognizing existing lines or
establishing new ones and the effects which such
expansion would have on highways and bridges
The National Capital Park and Planning Com
mission has referred to these problems in its
master plan for the development of Washington
Recently move toward joint consideration of
Metropolitan Area bus requirements was made by
the Arlington Public Utilities Commission
There is need for joint solution of such prob

lines serving the District and nearby counties
These lines are subject to varying regulations
and controls. In the control picture are the
Interstate Commerce Commission, the District
Public Utilities Commission, the Maryland Public
Service Commission and Virginia's State Corpo-
ration Commission. There are conflict and con-
fusion among these agencies. This situation has
led to demands for creation of Metropolitan

could bring co-ordinated control of transporta-

Catholic Veterans on POAU

The recent conference on church
and state by Protestants and Other
Americans United should be understood
for what it really was-an attempt by
POAU to gain publicity and financial
support by an appeal to religious big
otry.
1t is regrettable. therefore, that at a
time when President Truman has ap-
pealed for unity among the American
people, POAU is creating disunity by
improved accusations, and by distortions
and Misrepresentation against the spir-
itual leaders of 26 million American
Catholics.
All fair minded Americans should
know the true character and purposes
of POAU. Then they would recognize
it as a self-seeking, articulate minority.
dynamized by professionals and aligned
with forces that misunderstood Catholic
teachings.
They would also challenge the right
of POAU, which numbers but few
thousands at the most. to express the
views of Protestants and Jews generally.
And they would repudiate it-as many
already have done-for sowing the seeds
of misunderstanding and bigotry against
their Catholic fellow citizens.

Drong Mach Osten

Gen. Eisenhower is the first among
those who have spoken on foreign policy
to recognize one of the great central facts
in the present world struggle: The enor-
nous strategic value of tha economic
wealth of the South Pacific islands of the
Malayan Archipelago and peninsular
countries adjoining.
Numerous European and Asian coun-
tries depend wholly or partly on these
areas for their needs of sugar, rice, rub
ber. tin,. quinine, rope fibers, spices. pc
troleum, coal, timber and many other
raw materials. Even the United States
\ would be hurt if there were lost to Rus
sia the tin and rubber of some of these
countries.
The policy of both India and China can
be really understood only in the light of
these economic considerations. Both
countries are food-deficit areas and draw
important rice imports from nations like
Burma and Indo- China.
But General Ike has the cart before
the horse. He says we must hold Europe
to protect these resources from Soviet
conquest. Why should Russia attack the
Netherlands, for example, to get control
of the economic paradise that is Indo-
nesia? Why not attack Indonesia di-
rectly, having first of course taken Indo-
China, and Malaga?
The intent of the Kremlin is all too
clear. 1t is to grab these economic re-
sources first, and then, by denying or
threatening to deny vital exports to Euro
pean and Asiatic nations dependent upon
them. bring these to their knees.
General Ike was well-advised to recog-
nize the great strategic Importance of
Southeast Asia and the outlying islands.
But we cannot deny them to the Soviet
by protecting Europe as he implies We
can so deny them only by directly de-
Tending them which means holding
Korea, holding Indo- China, holding and
