THE ISOLATIONIST

One of the most badly mauled
words today is that of isolation
ist." Along with its converse term
"internationalist," it is used to
describe someone with whom we
do not agree on foreign policy,
especially when we are not able
to answer his arguments.
The term isolationist really
means someone who would keep
our country aloof politically from
any other countries, adhere
strictly to a policy of non-parti-
cipation in alliances and avoid
any engagements or conflicts
with foreign countries. He would
defend his country, but only on
his own soil.
Such a person is not wise
minded in days of international
insecurity and impending attack
~ materialistic dictatorship as
part Of program of world con-
quest. He is not good citizen
who would refuse to recognize
the thre 1T of danger from abroad
and consider only problems at
home.
No less undesirable is the
citizen who would willingly sub
hordinate our sovereignty and
our constitution to the provisions
of foreign treaty. We dare not
give up the integrity of our
country. He is wrong who would
spend money without scrutiny as
to the needs for it and the pos
sibility of getting the greatest
returns.
One is not an isolationist if he
refuses to compromise the inte-
gritty of his country and insists
that the function of foreign rela-
tions of our federal government
is to defend our country from
attack and from harm. He is not
an isolationist because he insists
on spending money carefully and
not denying people abroad the
privilege of restoring themselves
by their own efforts.
It is just as bad to try to buy
friendship with wasted dollars
as it is to save a dime when
spending the dime might save a
dollar.
If insisting on the preservation
of national sovereignty, refusing
to destroy our internal economy
in futile efforts to do for other
countries what they should do
for themselves, is isolationism-
then that father is a mere prude
who forbids his daughter to en-
gage in prostitution in order to
relieve other members of the
family of the necessity of sup
porting themselves.
There are degrees of participa-
ton in foreign alliances.
We can participate without 60
ing to the lengths proposed by
some who are designated as zone
worlderS."
We can cooperate with other
nation, even help them to get
back on their own feet, and parti-

Seventeenth-year Locust.

1t is time for our noisy serenad-
ers to appear in Virginia and
nearby places during May, June
and July. This periodic pest, ento-
mologically speaking, is a "cicada" !"
and not a locust belonging in the
grasshopper group.
The trek of the cicada clan will
cause some damage to new and
recent planting of fruit trees. The
ground will be perforated with
small round holes from which will
emerge young cicada residing sew
eral feet under the surface await
ing the call to tunnel to the top.
Some broods of this pest require
13 years, others or II. The
17th-year cicada has life story
that is fairly we'll known. The
farther north the insect is estab-
lished the longer it requires to get
its growth.
If the young cicada coming to
the surface encounters rainy
weather, he builds a turret over
his fox hole and awaits a warm,
sunshiny day. Then he will creep
from his earth shelter to seek the
stem of a plant or young tree.
In order to survive, he fastens

7 axe MyWord for 1t

Milwaukee: Recently I came
across the word "repetitive" in a
book. My dictionary doesn't list it.
Is it a good word?-G. M.
Answer: Yes. Repetitive means
"repetitious; repeating" Pronounce
it: ree-PET-i-tiv.
Bogalusa: Is dunk" a good
word? My husband says I'd be os-
tracized if I used the word in po-
lite society.
Answer: Indeed dunk is a legiti-
mate word. 1t is from the Ger
man tunken, ''to dip; to sop dread
etc. in a liquid and eat it." Dunk
is an Americanism. At first it was
dialectal; but now the word is in
good favor among people in very
high places. For example, the
National Dunking Association, For
the Encouragement of Good Cheer
and Good Fellowship" includes
among it's charter members such
celebrities as Bing Crosby, Guy
Lombardo, Oracle Allen and scores
more like them.

question was asked, What is the
present tense of 'wrought'?" No
body knew, but the answer was
