Those who discuss life on other PLAN
cts fail to make a distinction between
the words "life" and intelligence"
There could be intelligence operating
in rate of vibration or biological strata
that would make them beyond our sight
and hearing, neither would they neces-
Sarily need our type of water, oxygen
and temperatures for their existence.
At high rate of speed the blades of
fan become invisible to us and con-
verSely meteors become visible when the
friction Of our atmosphere slows and
heats them and make them glow
The saucerS may be from the "etheric"
or aura-like area surrounding planet
and temporarily galvaniZe into visi-
bility when they come into our atmos-
phere. They may even be able to slow
down their own Migratory rate" at
will-Which seems the only hypothesis
that would cover all the types of sight
ings. And if we get our attitude toward
them right they may slow 1t down
enough to make contact. The things"
definitely exhibit high intelligence of
some kind and they are here for some
purpose. Let's do our part toward
contact!

Your Review of the Week" article
on flying saucers" last Sunday con-
tanned several errors, of which the ma
jor one was the statement that official
circles have denied, without hedging,
that the United States has any aircraft
remotely resembling the flying saucer"
According to the usually reliable New
York Times Gully 80, 1882, what Gen.
Sanford really said was:
81. The United States has nothing in
it's arsenal that has an unlimited
speed and no mass.
80. None of the reports has
disclosed the existence of any material
flying objects, except where the report
emanated from an observers sighting
of United States plane or missile :"
These statements, an unbiased reader
must admit, do not contain any denial,
fiat or otherwise, that saucers may be
United States secret aircraft. Most
high-school graduates know Cor were
once supposed to know that every
physical body has mass, and therefore
any United States secret plane would
have mass. Hence the first statement
is of no Importance. AS for the second
statement, 1t is practically an admis-
sion that the "saucers" are, in fact.
United States planes or missiles. The
Air Force has not seen fit to state pub
licly just which sightings had been eX-
planned as misinterpreted United States
aircraft, and the published files show
no such cases. Could it be that some
of these cases were just the ones which
the observers and press feel are "real
saucerS"?

Cheated Of Free Ride

In your stories about the opening Of
the new Chesapeake Bay Bridge. why
is 1t that you didn't mention the mess
at the dedication ceremony, and the
extremely poor way in which the crowd
was treated there?
The State had announced that after
the ceremony any one wishing to do
so. could drive across the bridge and
back. And thousands Of people, after
broiling in the sun during the long
drawn-out speeches, sat or stood around
all afternoon waiting for the promised
opening of the bridge to automobiles
which never happened.
Many hundreds of others also waited
all afternoon for the Is buses which,
it was said would shuttle people back
and forth over the bridge. OF these.
about five buses appeared and took a
small portion Of the crowd over and
stayed overs Nothing more was seen
Of them.
James #. Smith.
editors note: The Star announced
the day before the bridge dedication
that officials had changed their mind
about free rides on opening day, fear
ing such an open invitation would re-
suit in bad traffic JAM

Iraeli ambitions, the resentment
and revolt extended to the United
States.
On this subject we shall have
more to say as we go along, fol
without discussing it. one cannot
possibly form a picture Of the
American position in the Middle
East.
But leaving such questions mo-
mentarily aside. the tensions in
this area-which are part of its
great fascination-arise partly
from its division in time.
The Middle East is living stimuli
taneously in vastly separated
epochs: In a tribal medieval So
ciety and in modern national
states; in deeply rooted traditions
and highly advanced and pro-
gressive ideas; burdened with an
cient and grievous experiences and
inspired by future aspirations.

Reflections on the Capital

couldn't help thinking as they
looked at Winston Churchill
this past week:-How little
does stature depend on height
and how little does strength de-
pend on physical stamina.
Women particularly take to the
British Prime Minister because
with his round, chubby face and
superb humor. he has great per-
sonal charm, enhanced by ele-
CANT ease of manner. Political
leaders can't always claim the
latter. -.
One officials wife told him
at the Secretary Of States
brilliant reception Thursday
night that she was glad to have
lived in his time. Another
walked of triumphantly with his
cigar after his departure. She
saw the surprised look in the
eyes that beheld her carrying
the trophy between her fingers.
"It was his" she said with
a broad smile, knowing that she
did not have to explain to
whom the pronuon referred.
"He laid 1t down SO I picked
it up." All the women made
it clear how thrilled they were
to meet him. He apparently
captures the feminine vote with
ease. 80.

Churchill's government who

Learning New Steps

First Dance GROUP
By Katherine M. Brooks

The Dancing Class gave the
second Of its series of three dances
of the season last evening in the
Sulgrave Club. The dance was
limited to members of the class
and out-of-town guests, meaning
that no one living in Washington
may be q guest. It was a gay and
happy occasion and as usual,
Meyer Davis came down from New
York especially to give his best In

Washington has had many
dancing classes but there has been
only one THE Dancing Class. It
is about 40 years old, or nearly,
and started because half q hun
dred prominent young people
wanted to learn the-then-new
steps. So they brought leading
teachers Of the dance from New
York each week to put them
through the steps. glides and
"dips."
Mrs. John r. wilkins was pres

a member Of the committee for
the original group but no records
were kept as it was intended to
be. only an informal and to quote

that the late Gen. Charles L. Nc
Cawley and Viscount Henri de

Small Beginnings
It was planned as a very small
and informal gatherings, to meet
in the house at 1914 N street
facing the side Of the old British
Embassy. This house was re-
modelled for the use Of socially
prominent men and women for
amateur theatricals, lectures, re-
citals. dances and other inti-.
mate entertainments. It had q
charming small auditorium for
chamber music. It was christened
the Playhouse.
The late Preston Gibson and
Eldridge Jordan were the inspira-
ton for The Playhouse. Mr.. Jor-
dan secured the property from
Mrs. Edward Holiday, then the
owner, while Mr.. Gibson yearned
to be a playwright. Its doors were
opened in 1910 and it had a very
trying existence until 1917. Neigh
