David Lawrence:

CHICAGO, July 9.-Maybe
the American people. because of
television, will see more Of the
national party conventions this
year than ever before. But,
when all is said and done, very
little of the real struggle will be
televised. For nominations at
these conventions are the re-
suit of invisible-and not neces-
sarily illicit-forces at work in
countless ways, operating with
q sort of simultaneous confusion
that at some given moment sud-
denly produces unanimity.
Having witnessed 1S national
conventions and observed how
much alike in strategy they all
are. it is possible to say Of the
current Republican convention
that it Is following a pattern.
Before a convention begins,
the weaker side joins with un-
committed or neutral groups to
try to head of the leading can
didate. Sometimes this sue
ceeds, and then there's a move
ment to head of the coalition
that wrecked the leader.
Today it can be said that
Taft's strength has diminished.
He has been stopped for the
time being. Whether by COM
bination with other elements in
the party that strength can be
restored and enlarged seems to-
day doubtful.
The Eisenhower tally Of dele
gates Is not sufficiently large to
win the nomination at this time.
Hence. . few delegations, some
Of them friendly to the Eisen-
hover side, are looking around
for q chance to press a compro-
mise candidate Of their own. II
1t were assured that Gen. Eisen-
hover could win the nomination,
tho hackers Of the compromise
candidate wouldn't veer away
at all. They would be ready to
cast In their delegates at the
psychological moment when
the bandwagon starts.
But this convention does not

sent out to assist in training the
Turkish army in handling Of
modern weapons. A portion OF
this assistance, seme $3.50 mil
lion, was used as economic aid
and for chronological develop
ments. Turkey is exporting coal
these days. which it never did
before.
Turkey is facing the U. S. S. r.
directly on its eastern frontiers;.
it faces Bulgaria, one of Mos
cows most loyal satellites. on
the western borders. Yet the
Turkish government not only
has never asked that a single
American company or air de-
tachment be stationed within
her borders. but has opposed
any suggestion that foreign
troops be garrisoned on her
territory. Airfields have been
built in the last four years to
permit any type of plane to
take of. But the Turks re-
jected the idea Of having
American air units in their
country.
The Turks say that should a
war break out there will always
be time for us to use the IA
cilities of the Turkish airf1eldS.
These people at the crossroads
between East and West have
supreme confidence that they
can handle the enemy by them
selves, at least in the early
stages Of a conflict. And they
also maintain that should the
Muscovites attempt to attack
anywhere in the west they can
undertake a diversionary ac-
ton which would engage an
important part Of the Red
armed forces.
Turkey with q population Of
only 20 million people paid a

to his advance billing. The
speech of the century is not
easily made when well adver-
tised in advance.
There is another point ex-
perienced television performers
are making: Those long. writ
ten speeches filled with what
AL Smith called "ten-dollar
court-of- appeals words" are not
for TV.
In any case. the keynote is
over and the Eisenhower cause
undamaged unless Gov. Fine
proves recreant to positions he
took earlier. Nor is the platform
giving trouble.
Eisenhower Republicans are
trying hard to act conservative
enough on domestic issues not to
alarm that faction Of the

Taft Republicans are pretend.
ing that there Is really no gap
between the Senator and the
general on foreign policy that a
few well-chosen words won't
close.
The conveyance of these two
aims Is producing a document
which, as 1t Is not designed to
say anything conclusive, is ex-
tremely verbose. The astute,
high-priced lawyers in charge of
it, Senator Eugene Millikin Of
Colorado and John Foster
Dulles. planned it that way.
Since nobody Is interested in
anything but who is nominated.

men of the convention. They
are not complaining; both ex-

lican administration, be it Taft

place, unprecedented to invite
an outsider, and an unusual and
rare tribute. This figure was a
man who has been so closely
identified with our recent his
tory and our Governments acts
and policies that he occupies q
special position. both among us
and to the world at large. Upon
him, too. we have heaped high
honors. and the outside world
has witnessed these evidences Of
national esteem and confidence.
What the delegates to the
Republican convention beheld
was a tragedy in it's way. Maybe
there is sort of an ironic justice
in the final outcome Of this
widely advertised and widely ex-
plotted adventure.
For no stampede, no wild
parade Of delegates. no ex-
uberant cries Of I'VE want Mac
Arthur" occurred when he had
finished. as some had antici-
pated. He won enthusiastic and
generous applause as he con-
cluded, as he had during the
course Of his address.
Then he faded away.
Behind him he left an out
moded creed which his party
will disregard in its platform
and which its nominees for
President and Vice President
will scrap when they go before
our people, that is, If they ex-

portion of her debt Of gratitude
to the United States when it
offered to send q full division
to Korea in the early days OF
the war. For technical rea-
sons we accepted only a bri-
gade. which has been in the
thick of battle since the fall OF
1850. France with a popula-
tion more than twice that Of
Turkey sent only one bat
talon; Britain and the Com
monwealth one division. OF
course, France and Britain
have their own wars on their
hands in 1ndo-China and
Malaga.
The Turks do not believe in
compromises with an enemy.
They are fully willing to fight
a war to the bitter end. They
have never suggested even by the
usual trick of diplomatic inn
plication" that unless they get
more and more money and eco
nomic assistance from this
country they will. regretfully, be
compelled to slow down their
preparedness efforts and let US
take the consequences.
Neither is there in Turkey any
neutralism as it is witnessed
these days throughout Western
Europe. They are in our camp
for better or for worse and Moth
ing can change it.
This is the type of alliances
which Gen. Macarthur was adj
vocating when he bitterly de-
nounced the milly-mellow diplo-
macy of the United States to-
ward our Allies in the West and
criticized the never-ending flow
of American substance to West
ern Europe without anywhere
near approaching the goals set
when the NATO was organized.

HYDE DRAINAGE PLAN
COSTS FARMER 81 ACRE

It costs R. B. Stotesbury, prom
inent Hyde County former, just
a dollar a year to drain each acre
of land he has in crops.
This was just one Of the facts
picked up by three dozen men,
bers of the Lower Cape Fear
Soil Conservation District on
their two-day visit to Hyde and
Beaufort counties, a few days
ago.
They also looked over the
drainage control programs of
Leon Balance, Tom Howard,
Curtis Howard and Allen Swim
dell during their tour Of this
area.
Mr.. StokeSberry told the group
his system of drainage bitches
and canals keep about as acres
dry and costs him a little over
$500 a year.
This figure, he explained, does
not include his original invest
ment or take into account any
depreciation.
But it pays off well because
he and his neighbors, the Ho-
wards, who use the same system,
are able to harvest their crops
without a loss due to wet fields.
The system consists of one large
ditch from which water is pumped
to d canal draining into Lake Mat
tamuskeet and laterals about 500
feet apart through his fields.
The pump is powered by an
old, large tractor engine. The ini-
tial cost of the pump was about
81, 400. He has been using this
drainage system since l947.

Our boys and girls deserve only

1t has been well said that the

Some two hundred years ago an
old English minister walked into
his churchyard and, sitting down
on a tombstone, began to- weep.
He wept because he considered his
life failure. Attendance at his
church had been dwindling for
years, and his officers had finally
taken it upon themselves to ask
him to resign and let younger
man take his place.
AS he sat there, disconsolate, a
small boy came skipping down the
highway, and stopped to pass the
time of day with the elderly pas
tor. The old man told the young
lad about the Bible, and led him
to place his faith in Jesus. The
boy-now a new boy in Christ
went merrily on his way. The
broken-hearted preached returned
to his sorrow. Not too many weeks
later he passed on to be with his
Lord.
The boy, William Carey, grew up
to become one of the greatest
Christians this world has ever
known. He did more than any other
man to interest the Protestant
churches in missions; went him
self and endured untold hardships
as a pioneer missionary to India,
and founded the Baptist mission
airy movements. William Carey's
influence is with us yet-and lit
orally millions have turned to
Christ because of his ministry. All
because a broken h cart d old
preacher failure in the eyes Of
his members - thought enough
about a dirty-faced young boy to
speak to him about his immortal
soul.
There are scores of potential
William Careys in our midst, if we
could but see them. Indeed, there
are hundreds of boys and girls
right here in Hyde County with the
; ability to be greatly used Of GOO
