WASHINGTON, -tPl-If the
countries of western Europe take
General Eisenhower's suggestion
and call a contitutional conven-
ton they'll face some of the pro-
blems the United States had to
overcome in getting United.
But their problems will be
more intense; the wide and an
cient trade barriers, the differ
ences in language, the intense ma
tionalism in each country which
has clung jealousy to its own
sovereignty.
Those SoverigntieS stretch back
for centuries, as Eisenhower men,
toned. But he suggested it's
about time for new answers to
be found for some of the old
traditions.
When the American states sent
delegates to their constitutional
convention they, too, were jealous
of their individual sovereignties
which, however, were of much

1t is a beautiful dream-as a
goal. But it is like most other
dreams, goals, and fair women.
The closer you get, the more the
wrinkles show. A star is pale and
cold and lovely far away in the
evening sky. But if you ever came
near it, it would roast you into
a clinker.
So docs the dream of retirement
turn man ashy when he
achieves it and finds it a night
mare. He no longer wants to
taste lotus. Heaven is nice thing
TO think about, too, except when
you get pneumonia.
The theory OF retirement is
exactly backward. If it is true, as
Bernard Shaw quipped, that youth
was too wonderful to waste on
young people, SO is retirement too
terrible a plague to visit on old
people, who know the value of
keeping busy
What the government should do
is retire all people at the age of
25, then put them back to work
at so and let them stay happy at
their tasks until they wear out
their will to go on--if they ever
did.
I'd like to try it myself. In
only 40, and I sure could use ter
years of retirement right now.

Allies Down 81
Planes, Lose 81

SEOUL, KOREA, FEB. / Up
Allied airmen shot down 81 Red
jets in January and lost 81 of
their won planes, Far East Ar
Forces reported today.
The allied loss was the great
est i'm any month of the 20 month
Korean War.
Increasingly accurate Commu-
mist antiaircraft fire destroyed 23
United Nations jets and Il pro-
peller planes. Five F-86 Sabre
jets were shot down in air battles.
One Sabre and two B-29 super
forts were lost because of me-
chanical failures.
In addition to the 81 Russian
type MIG-15 Jets shot down, al
lied pilots were credited with
probably destroying two and
damaging sc.
FEAT said during the entire
war the allies have lost 479 planes
compared to $50 Red aircraft de-
stroyed or damaged, including
Gil MICS.
The Reds have concentrated
most of their anti-aircraft bat
teries-including Russian-built ra-
dar detectors- such key points
as Pyongyang, the north Korean
capital, Sariwon, Sinanju, Siniuju
and other vital road and rail
functions. These have accounted
for most of the allied losses.
Snow and overcast skies
grounded most allied planes Fri
day morning. Fifth Air Force
said only a few fighter-bombers
went out on operation strangle,
designed to cut Communist life
lines.
No major ground action was re-
ported.

more recent origin and more
easily surrendered.
If Europe agreed on a consti-
tuition setting up single govern
ment-With, say, a president and
congress elected from all the
European states-e ch country
would retain some sovereignty,
states rights, just as the Amer
ican states did
The states rights problem has
been with us from the beginning:
How to have a central govern
ment strong enough to handle the
national problems while still lett
ing the states run themselves as
much as possible.
The early American states were
in a bad economic jam when they
agreed on their constitution, just
as the European countries are
now. We were weak and SO are
they.
Our states were willing to
yield some sovereignty and band
together to save themselves from
disaster. Europe may do the
same, particularly since it is in
real military danger from Rus
Sia.
In the years since the last war
the Europeans have moved closer
to unity than ever before simply
because of the jam they're in,
realizing that if they had only
done SO before the war there
might not have been war or a
jam now.
They've made some economic
agreements; they've formed a
military alliance in the Atlantic
Pact; they're edging toward a
single European army; and they
have a council of Europe which.
while it lacks powers to make
the members do anything, is at
least a step toward unity.
The early American colonies
linked arms-economically polite
ally and militarily under pressure
of their war with Britain. For the
six years from IT'S to 1871 de-
legates from the 13 colonies form
eo the continental congress
which was a kind of central com
mittee to carry on the war.
To help themselves work bet
ter together, the colonies drew
UP the articles of confederation
They won the war. And the col
onies, now states, approved the
articles. That's how they started
II was a weak start.
Madison County Democrat. (London, Ohio) 19??-1958, 1952-02-01

For example: the articles of
confederation didn't give congress
power to tax or regulate cc.n-
merce although they did allow
congress to declare war. But the
articles were too weak for real
government.
Some times for months not
enough members of congress
showed up to make a quorum.
The economic condition of the
country got worse. Finally in
1876 George Washington moaned:
Il do not conceive we can exist
long as nation without having
lodged somewhere power which
will pervade the whole union in
as energetic manner as the au-
thority Of the state government
extends over the several states.
And Alexander Hamilton echoed
him: I'VE may be said to
have reached almost the last
stage of national humiliation"
Eisenhower, when he made his
suggestion in Europe this week
said he had talked with many
government officials in Europe
and Il have yet to run into one
of them who didn't believe eco
nomic and political union was ne
cesSary.")
e Just as Eisenhower and others
feel about Europe now, SO some
of the early Americans felt a
strong central government was
needed. The states at last agreed

hospitalized today for several
reasons: they are protected from
disease by preventive measures
such as immunization, well-bal-
anced diets, better sanitation and
improved health knowledge on
the part of their parents. With
infants there is much less in-
cidence of intestinal disorders
because of improved knowledge
