No, girls scream! If a girl is
away any length of time. as
sumo there's a good reason for
it! If the boy gets worried. he
should ask another girl or an at
tendant to check. With two-way
courtesy. the girl finds a way to
send the word, if she will be out
of circulation for a while because
of some sudden upset such as ILL
ness. To leave a man to wait in
idle agony outside the powder
room door is social cruelty.

Place Desk
in AIcove
By Pauline Groves

With a little planning you
can make the most of every
inch in your home. An exam
pie is this desk arrangement
that puts one end of an alcove
to good use. The desk stands
in the center of the wall,
framed by narrow shelves that
extend from floor to ceiling.
Two additional shelves, one
about 18 inches from the cell
ing, and the other, Is inches
above the desk, complete the
unit.
Not only do the shelves pro-
vide always needed storage
for books and magazines, but
they achieve the effect of Wild
ening the alcove. Too, the desk
seems to be almost a built-in.
If you haven't an alcove to
be used in this manner, the
same treatment can be given
to a wall area between two
doors. Or one entire wall in a
small room, possibly a den or
study, can be treated in this
manner, by adding more
shelves.
Be sure to measure your
wall area carefully and make a
plan before you start construc-
ticn. Anticipate where you will
place large books and maga-
zines and measure those also,
before you arrive at the final
design. A too-long span will
sag under the weight of many
volumes, so that braces might
be necessary occasionally.

The Uninvited TobIe- Hopper
What if a boy without a date
sits down with you and your girl,
when you are eating out?" asks
Bill. Must you pay his bill?
How can you get him to scram?
Should Bill: Offer to pay for
all three? Cover whatever is
ordered as a treat for the trio by
the unlimited guest? Urge him
to linger on, dance with the girl?
No. no. no, young people side in
with etiquette. AS date-host, the
boy is responsible for the girl
only. unless he invited the other
boy to be his guest. too. When
ever there is a problem it is well

Constantine Brown:

Unless the pressure on
Communist China is increased
In the near future to enforce
peace in Korea the chances
are that in the next two years
we win find ourselves with a
far more difficult problem on
our hands than we have now.
This is the considered opirl-.
ion Of military men in the Far
East and is likely to be brought
forth clearly by Gen. Van
Fleet, the retired commander
Of the 9th Army, when he re-
turns to Washington.
Gen. Van Fleet will be heard
by. the Armed Services Com
mitteeS In Congress. But he is
expected to make his strongest
presentation to President
Eisenhower.
Last fall, after the Chinese
Communist delegation headed
by Foreign Minister Chou-en-
lai. himself a military man,
left Moscow, Gen. Lin Piao,
regarded as China's most
competent officer. was ordered
to reorganize and modernize
the Chinese Red armies.
This Red China mobilization
is to be fully completed by
1855. Stain Is reported by
Peiping sources. where security
is less strongly guarded than
in Moscow, to have promised
to send to China some 16,50O
specialists and technicians and
the necessary equipment for
this vast project.
The Chinese generals are
somewhat uneasy about the
present military situation in
Korea. So long as the Red
diplomats assisted by some of

wishers can string along with
interminable peace" talks,
the Communist plans for Asia
will not be much affected.
The frequent air raids do con-
siderable damage locally. But
since they are confined only to
North Korea where there are
no industrial installations
except for power stations south
Of the Yalu River-they are
mere pin-pricks insofar as the
major aims of the Russo
Chinese are concerned.
Despite the loud talk Of the
enemy, there seems to be no
doubt that he is worried over
the possibility Of an American
demand to either sign an
armistice or bear the military.

are optimistic that we can be

whatever our intentions may
be to put an end to the present
war OF attrition we must be

cal effect. In comparison, It
makes the gift to the States
offered by the Eisenhower ad-
ministration from low tide to
the , three-mile limit-three
leagues in the case of Texas
seem rather moderate or even,
as Texas would look at it,
almost niggardly.
In Sanctioning what it has,
the Eisenhower administration
has run counter, of course, to
the Supreme Courts decision
that these lands belong to all
the people. that the Federal
Government has paramount
interest In them and that the
States have no title thereto,
nor any property interest
therein. That should be plain
enough.
There is. Of course, method
in the apparently zany chap
ter in the Texas expansionist
story. Little oil has been dis
covered under the sea thus
far in the boundary Texas
claims, so rights are sought
further out in the continental
shelf where 1t is believed there
are rich oil deposits. This
Texas gesture has become en-
barrassing to Senator Holland,
Democrat, Of Florida, who Is
sponsoring q bill along lines
favored by the Eisenhower adj
ministration for the normal"
boundaries. The Florida Sem
ator is disturbed that the in
Hated Texas project will make
the whole State case seem
ridiculous - which 1t is, Of
course - and furthermore it
punctures his own argument
that oil Is only incidental In
the offshore lands.
