 Strides by Women
 To impress the strides made bl women in the professions, Mrs Galley told of the difficulties facec hy Elizabeth Blackwell a hundred years ago because she desired tC become a doctor. She applied fol entrance to l2 medical schools ano all refused to accept a female, ano finally her entrance into smal Geneva Medical College in 184' was the scandal of the village. Hei courage won her graduation higt in her class, but no applause from the world The Boston Medical anC Surgical Journal made this con- ment:
 Tt is to be regretted that she has been induced to depart from the appropriate sphere of her owr sex, and led to aspire to honors and duties which by the order oi nature and the common consent of the world, devolve alone upon men,"
 5000 Medic0s
 And now, Mrs. Galley added, there are over 5000 women medical doc tors in the United States-of which Alaska has a good share.
 As to her own profession, here the problem was as great, Mrs. Ga ley said. When Lavinia Goodall as recently as 1875 applied for ad- mission to the bar in Iowa, the judge who refused her admission said:
 There are many employments in life not unfit for female char acter. The profession of the law is surely not one of these. The pecu- liar qualities of womanhood, its gentle graces, it's quick sensibility its tender susceptibility, it's purity, it's delicacy, it's emotional impul- ses, it's subordination of hard req son to sympathetic feeling, are surely not qualifications for loren sic strife. Nature has tempered woman as little for juridical con- flicts of the court room, as for the physical conflicts of the battle field. Womanhood is nodded for gentler and better things

I5 AGAINST
 BOMBING OF
 RED BASES
Gen. Vandenberg Says Air Force Now Operating
 on "Shoesfring'

WASHINGTON, May 28 R = Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg said today the United States is operating with a "shoe string Air Force and car not afford now to adopt Gen. Doug las MacArthur's proposed strategy of bombing Red bases in Manchuria. Testifying at the Senate inquiry into MacArthur's dismissal, Vanden- berg also said he believes there are reasonable chances" of getting q negotiated peace in Korea without such bombing.
 Vandenberg, the Air Force Chief of Staff, said he believes if the ful power of the U. s. Air Force were thrown into the balance in Korea "there would be a good chance of forcing them Chinese Reds) to ne gotiate"
 Big Force Required
 But he contended it would take the full weight of the Air Force to accomplish this, and the Air Force cannot afford to do it lest it be called upon to meet Russian at tack elsewhere.
 Macarthur had contended no ma terial increase in air strength alSi ready assigned to the Far East would be needed to carry out his plan of bombing Manchuria. Asserting that the U. s. Air Force remains the single largest deterrent to any Russian attack that might start World War III, Vandenber5 said he thinks the fighting in Korel can be halted without all-out use of air there. He added:
 Air Force Supreme
 q believe that there are reason- able chances of success in achieving a negotiated peace without endang- ering that one potential that we have, which has kept the peace so far, which is the United States Air Force"
 Vandenberg said he concurred ip the orders to MacArthur not to bomb north of the Yalu river bound- ary between Korea and Manchuria. Then Vandenberg added:
 While was and am today against bombing across the Yalu, it does not mean by any stretch of the imag-
  ination that I might not be for 1t tomorrow, month from now, or six months from now"
 Vandenberg completed his first day of testimony at 11:30 am. and will return tomorrow
 MacArthur's Proposal
 Macarthur urged the bombing of Chinese Red supply bases and troop concentrations in Manchurcia as an effective way to carry the war to the Communists and avoid bloody stalemate" in Korea It was his pub lie advocacy of this. strategy, plus a naval and economic blockade Of Red China and use of Chinese Ma tionalists troops, that led Presideni Truman to dismiss him April Il from his Far Eastern commands.
 Vandenberg, testifying at the in quiry into MacArthur's dismissal also told the senators:
 l. The Russian-built MIG-15 fighter plane used by the Chinese Communists has jet engine sup erior to any we have" He said he surmised it was developed with the aid of German technicians.
 2. The Russians now have the "capability" for mass production of first rate aircraft

Ex-Democrot Might Finish Ike
Od-Timer Suggests What Might Happen if Committee
Asks General Whether He Ever Has Been q Democrat

Which brings us to the center
of all the speculation, Gen. Ike.
Much is being made of the re-
marks the newSmen drew from
President Truman on Thursday.
The President said the generals S
present assignment should not
interfere with anything he might
want to do in 50. This is being
interpreted as giving the green
light to those seeking to make
Eisenhower the Republican can
didate. But in sounding out my
friend, The Old Timer. l was
given a wholly different idea.
when you jump to that con-
clusion," said The Old Timer,
you jump right over something
else the President said. Didn't
he say that under any condi-
tions the general would put
duty to country first? Well, isn't
Ike on record as believing that a
military career is no training
for the presidency. Wouldn't he
think then that it's his duty to
avoid being President? But sup
pose he has changed his mind
on the general proposition; there
still remains the conditions
mentioned by the President.
What reason is there to think
that the conditions next spring
will be any different from the
conditions now, with everybody
agreeing that the place for
Eisenhower is the place where
he is-in Europe.

The week washes up in a
Welter of political speculation.
Gov. Lausche, Ohio's elusive
Mr.. Rabbit, called at the White
House to tell the President he
should run again next year. At
least he told neWsmen that that
was what he told the President.
The neWSmen, surprised by this
unprecedented outbreak of 10y
atty On the Governors part,
tried to figure out what he was
really up to. Some thought he
was reaching for the vice presi-
dental nomination, others that
he was opening his campaign
for John Bricker's Senate seat,
still others that it was a move
toward retirement from politics,
the Governor being coy wnen
asked about the baseball COM
missionership vacated by Happy
Chandler.
Another cause for speculation
was the admission of Harold
StaSSen that he has been sam
pling sentiment in Minnesota
and Wisconsin to determine
whether he should seek the Re
publican nomination again. The
speculation was not as to the de-
cision Penn's prexy will reach.
1t is taken for granted that he
hasn't ceased running, but some
think he is now looking beyond
so and merely hopes to line up
few State delegations for next
years convention to use in be-
half of somebody else-Gen.
Eisenhower, for instance.

when he said that about duty.
But he can probably think of
another candidate or two he'd
rather run against than Eisen-

duty to their country first. Try
smoking on that for awhile"
You're assuming, of course,
that Eisenhower is Republi-
can"
I'm assuming nothing. And
I'll tell you something else. The
people doing that assuming
could be in for a surprise. Soon
er or later they're going to get
Ike before one of those Congress
committees. 1t could be next
winter when politics will be real
ly hot. Out Of a clear sky one
of Taft'S friends-and you know
the kind of friends he's got; all
right, say Senator Mccarthy
will pop the question.
He'll say, General. will you
now tell the committee whether
you are or ever have been a
Democrat?'
We'll, that will knock the
general for a loop. He can re-
fuse to answer on the ground
that it might incriminate him.
But where will that leave him?
Next day they'll put on an ex-
Democrat to nail the case down.
And that'll finish Ike. 1t will if
ex-Democrats rate as highly
hereabouts as ex-Communists. y
