no doubt Mr.. Henry viii be able to

The point that he was really trying
to make is that the people deserve an
opportunity to make clear-cut choice
between the Republican program SUBJ

and the program of the present admin
iStration.
At the moment there are two main
obstacles to this. One is the failure
of one of the principal Republican
candidates to indicate whether or not
he is in agreement with the party pro-
gram. The other is the failure Of the
President to take the action necessary
to insure that, when it comes to the
test, the Democratic Party will be
judged on the basis of its program. not
its morals.
Gen. Eisenhower can best display. his
political Sophistication and high sense
of duty by informing the American
people in a few words whether or not
he subscribes to the program of the
Republican Party as manifested in its
congressional voting record. President
Truman could do both the Nation and
his party a great service if he would
take the action necessary to make it
clear that it will not be necessary for
any one to vote against the Fair Deal
in order to vote for clean Government.

Better Thun A-Bomb

. In his speech to Congress, Mr..
Churchill made his best point when he
said that if France had made friends
of Germany instead of hating her for
the last hundred years or more. we
would not have had the world wars that
have cursed all mankind. In this, he
was telling the truth of Christianity;
that hate means war and death: while
love means life and peace. What a
thrilling speech he could have made had
he followed up this good point by urging
that England make friends with Russia,
and Egypt and others; and that America
do likewise, and thus prevent future
wars and the terrible burden to man
kind of ornaments, bombs and wars.
Goliath was the best armed man in
tne world, who had put all Israel to
fight. But little David, unarmed, with
Gods help, slew Goliath and ended the
war; The Syrian army was overwhelm-
ing Israel; but Elisha, with Gods help,
blinded and captured the army; gave
them a picnic and ended the war in
peace Sennacherib had the finest army
the world had ever seen and had over
run many nations. but Hezekiah, with
Gods help, was saved and that great
army slain by the angel Of the Lord.
Mr.. Churchill said. Keep the bomb
till you have something better" That
something better is the hand of God,
ever ready to help us if we obey Him.
Oh. that America would trust in God,

been going steady for two years
I promised him I would wait and
be true to him, but it is SO lone
some. I 60 out with group some

ANSWER: First of all, Of course,
you are too young to be so seriously
involved with one boy. You have
never had a chance to know other
boys and it wouldn't hurt you one
bit to get back into the group and
share their dates.
If you are firmly convinced that
there is no one but Tommy, you'll
just have to learn to spend time

you don't; there isn't much al

Italian art in the world of
fashion has been making head
lines for the past year and a half.
The fine Italian hand" has been
applied to fashions for both men
and women and caused much
comment.
Women in Rome possess q chic
quality unlike that seen any,
where in Europe. with the excep-
ton Of Paris. There is something
that Italian and French women
of fashion share. That is great
poiSe, assurance in their cloth
ing selections. and real pride
in being able to obtain the maxi
mum of pleasant wear from their
fashions. They appreciate a fine
handbag, lovely gloves, and the
subject Of thrift" is an important
one.
Fine things are not cheap any,
where. Least of all in Europe,
where most fashion is still of the
custom made variety. So, one
finds 1t easy to understand how
a fashion idea might emerge
from, say Italy, that might not
ever have seen the light of day
in the United States except via
importation.
Let's take the case of the shoes
that become many different pairs.
depending on the need of the
woman wearing them. Sounds al
most like fashion magic,
doesn't it?
Last summer Mr.. and Mrs. Jules
Winkleman of Washington trav-
eled abroad. In the many cities
they visited they kept hearing
over and over again the name of
an Italian shoemaker, Frattegiani
of Florence and Rome. 1t seemed
that every time he made a pair
of shoes he seemed to be able to
fashion a new idea in footwear.
His artistic expression would find
strange creative paths. Who else
would think of putting ceramic
Della -Robbia-t type heels on pair
of glove-soft black suede lounge
shoes? Just one example!
So when the Winklemans went
to Florence they stopped in to
visit the tiny factory of Frat
tegiani's and met not only the
designer, himself, but also men,
bers Of his family. All are crafts
men of note and help make the
shoes that have become "conver-
sation pieces" throughout Europe
Being alert merchants. the
Winklemans made arrangements
to have several styles made up
that would prove appealing to
Washington women.

Baptist Wins Pledge
OF More Freedom for
Protestants in Spain
BY the Associoied Press

MADRID, Spain, April 22.-Th,
Rev. Paul E. Freed, Baptist evan,
gelist from Greensboro, N. c., sale
yesterday he had won a promise
from the Spanish government oi
greater religious liberty for Prot.
estants in this country.
Mr.. Freed, now on his second
trip to Spain in the interest oi
religious freedom, said the promise
was made to him by Interior Min
inster Bias Perez Gonzales.
The North Carolina evangelist
is the first foreign Protestant
pastor ever received by member

cos government. He told a news
conference he had had three in
tervieWS with Mr.. Perez.
20 Churches May Reopen.
Mr.. Freed submitted a list of 81
Protestant Churches closed by
Spanish authorities in recent
months. He said the interior
Minister promised to let more
than 20 Of them reopen. He also
declared: "The Spanish govern
ment will work in every way pos
Sible toward obtaining more reli-
gious freedom for Protestants."
The position of Protestants in
Spain has been a sore point be-
tween Spain and the United
States. President Truman told a
news conference in February he
never had been fond of Gen
frances regime.
The next day Stanton Griffis,
stepping out as American Ambas-
sador to Spain, said he believed
the Presidents attitude was based
mainly ION the intolerable de-
lays of the Spanish government
in granting religious freedom in
Spain.

Allies Charge Reds
Do Not Attend Talks
To Negotiate Truce
BY the Associated Press

MUNSAN, Korea. April 22.-In
a sharp 16-minute truce session
an Allied spokesman told Com
Imunist negotiators today: ''your
latitude clearly indicates you have
mot come to these conferences to
negotiate an armistice."
Col. Don O. Darrow made the
statement after North Korean Col.
Chang Chun told him to give up
your illusions" about banning Red
airfield reconstruction during a
Korean armistice.
Col. Darrow said the Com
munists appeared more concerned
with the United Nations COM
mand's attitude than with solv-
ing problems.
No problems were solved in the
session dealing with means of
supervising a truce.
Six New POW Camps Listed.
The fate of armistice talks ap-
lpeared to hang on another group
of staff officers debating methods
iof exchanging prisoners of war.
The officers met in executive ses-
Fsion for an hour and 40 minutes.
An Allied spokesman said they
were still exploring" possible So
buttons.
Both groups meet again tomor-
row.
In the prisoner session the AL
lies handed the Reds a list of six
new prisoner camps in South Ko-
rea. They are in addition to
camps on rocky Koje Island, scene
of two bloody riots in recent
months.
A U. N. spokesman said some
prisoners already have been trans
Iferred from Koje. which houses
100000 POWS and 10000 civilian
internees.
Improved Discipline Seen.
The Army said it expected the
move would ease crowded condi-
Itions encouraging intrigue and
disorder" and would lead to ''im-
lprovement of discipline and con-
troll of unruly Communist agita-
tors among the prisoners.
Lieut.. Col. Albert M. Butler, who
handed the Communists a map of
the new camps, said they are Sit
Iuated south of Masan, west of
Pusan, southeast of Yongchon,
south of Nonsan, south of Teajon|
and on Cheju Island.

report later the names and ma
tionalities of prisoners moved to
