vidual and joint capacity to resist
aggression.
This treaty sets up NATO, which
stands for North Atlantic Treaty
Organization. Member nations are
Belgium, Canada, Denmark,
France, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg,
Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,
United Kingdom, and United States.
The announced object of the
North Atlantic community of ma
tons is to preserve peace through
strength-by building up the powers
OF the free world to a point where
no aggressor will be bold enough
to strike.
To build up such power, NATO,
OF course, had to develop a mill
tary force, and at the Brussels con-
ference in December 1850, the
members agreed on plans for build
ing this force. The result is the
greatest cooperative effort in his
tory to create a Joint army in
peacetime for the prevention of
war.
Gen. Dwight D. Eisenhower was
designated supreme commander
for the integrated army, and other
top positions were filled by officers
OF the different member nations,
VINO work together as a team.
Headquarters are located near
Paris. France. and the command
is designated by the initials
SHAPE: Supreme Headquarters
Allied Powers Europe.
NATO Countries Cooperate
1t was at this headquarters that
we heard from General Eisenhower
and his chief of staff, General Al
Gruenther, just what their prob
lens were with regard to the build
ing up of this force, and summary
OF some of the solutions which they
were using to meet the complicated
situations.
All of the countries belonging to
NATO are expected to do every-
thing possible to build their own de-
lenses. Americas contribution is
made through the Mutual Defense
Assistance Program-MDAP, which
holsters economical potential and
actual military strength with funds,
equipment and technical assist
ance.
These funds and this assistance
are not confined to our NATO part
ners. Other free nations such as
Yugoslavia, Turkey, Greece, and
Italy share in MDAP programs.
The combined efforts are aimed
at building for SHAPE, in the
shortest possible time, forces of,
sufficient strength to deter agrees
sion.
Our strategy then is to attempt
to deter aggression with a show of
military power. Russia seems to
understand that kind of talk. But
the big question remaining is
whether or not we can build our
forces fast enough to create the
desired stalemate. A discussion of
the problems connected with reach
ing this objective follows in a SUBJ
sequent article in this series.

Pilot Lunches at Farm

SALEM, Ore.-An Air Force pilot,

He parachuted to safety from g.

Europe Is Weary of Eternal War

These countries are weary of

They are wary of alliances that
might lead to another war.
Like Americans, these people
would like to be left alone to "plow

all they need do is look out across
their fields, to see the massed
forces of the Russian military ma
chine aligned along the Iron Cur

In face of such a disheartening
picture how has it been possible
for the free world to effect any

Yes and that settled it. Nothing

Mary wanted to set date for the
wedding, but Felix suggested wait

chance to catch his breath. He
wanted, as the story books put it,
to have one last fling before becom-
ing a Benedict.
So Felix, without saying
word to any one, packed a bag
and set off for Cedar Springs.
The first Mary knew about it
was letter which she received
from the Springs signed by
Felix.
In part, the letter said: II am
combining short business trip with
some deep-set fishing. Please do
not worry about me, darling, as I
will be home shortly, and we will
make plans for the wedding"
Felix did not mention that on the
deep-sea fishing trip he had met a
party of young folks, including a
very attractive red-headed girl
named Nan.
In fact, Felix had such a nice time
during the next few days that he
decided to prolong his visit. Which
he did, writing Mary Smell to this
effect. Mary replied that she was
glad he was having such a good

change in the traditional program
had been made in the best interest
of the college music students. 1.-The

and will alternate thereafter every

This will give the students an OPP
portunity to perform in each of the

The Choral society, which observes
its 50th anniversary this season, was
organized in 1902. 1t has presented
"The Messiah" every year since 1913
and for the past 10 years two times
on the Sunday date of the program.
Prof. Lantz estimates the group has
