Dewitt S. Hyde

WASHINGTON-One of the big
events overshadowing everything
else in Washington this week is the
Korean Truce. A great many critics
of the Administration are accusing
it of surrendering and selling out
the South Koreans. Let us take a
good look at the picture before we
make such accusations.
We entered the war for the pur-
pose of stopping communist agrees
sion. Can anyone say we didn't stop
it? To that end the United Nations
efforts in Korea were a success. I'm
flied Korea would, of course, be pre-
ferable, however, Korea was not I'M
flied when the war started. If you
will think back, you will remember
that at that time, we were seeking
to unity Korea by political means.
President Eisenhower is right in
saying that we should now continue
our efforts to bring about unification
by political means.
The only alternative apparently is
for an about war on the Asiatic
mainland. Are the people of Amer
lea willing to make this sacrifice in
order to unity Korea?
The critics maintain this truce is
the first military defeat the United
States has suffered. This is false for
several reasons: In the first place, re-
member our aim was to stop the ag-
gresslon-thiS was done. In the sec
ond place, in spite of the fact that
we have borne practically all of the
cost and, except for South Korea, the
lions share of the casualties, it is
still not our war but a war between
the United Nations and the Com
munists. All through 1T we have
been, and are, obliged to consult with
the other members of the United Ma
TONS We must continue to consult
with them unless we withdraw. Do
the American people want to do that?
1t appears to me that President
Eisenhower is doing a masterful job
and it behooves us to remain calm,
trust in God and keep our powder
dry.

Farm Prices Gain In May

The University of Maryland Ex-
tension Service has reported that the
index of prices received by Mary
land farmers increased four points
during the past month to 283 per
cent of the 1909-14 base. Principal
boosts occurred for meat animals
and tobacco, with grains showing no
change. Tobacco began the season
averaging about six cents more than
a year ago. Higher prices for hogs
and lambs caused the increase in the
meat animal index.

The American Can Company hasn't yet
worked out a practical container for
packing jobs and economic security. We
make cans-we do no canning.
But, by making better cans, we have
actually created job opportunities in
many different fields.
All kinds of things foods and bever-
ages, paints and varnishes, tobacco and
tennis balls keep better, are more con-
venient and easier to use when they are
packed in the right kind of container.
So, markets for these products expand.
Thousands of new, weIl-paid jobs open
up, and incomes climb.

The jobs that come in cans

In fact, whole new businesses have beea
able to get started because a suitable can
was developed to hold product. You
probably know of manufacturing plants
right in Maryland that owe their exist
ence to the industry
Creating new jobs is only one example
of what America has accomplished In our
free, competitive way of doing business.
People working together, playing to-
gether and living together bring social
and economic gains to all.
And such teamwork between our people
and our business system promises greater
prosperity and more jobs for our future.

the house into the barn, where
I'm making a workshop, turn
ing the cows out of doors, or
rather into a shed, and taking
over their quarters.
A good idea, too, I believe.
Cows get to be a terrible bore.
4 X X X
Nobody can truly appreciate a
dry COW unless he has MIXED
regularly for about four years.
We never could be content with
just one cow. and had to have
two or three, so there never was
a time in the past when one
wasn't giving milk
A COW is about as confining an
animal as you can find. No
matter what you want to do, the
COW has to be MIXED each
morning and night. You simply
have to be there or your COW
will suffer
Now it happens that we only
have one COW and she is dry.
And I'm having the time of my
life. Instead of struggling out
to the barn, with buckets hang
ing all over me, I just Saunter
out, throw down a little hay and
sprinkle out a little grain and
my days work is over.
1t sure is nice now, but I
can't be completely happy about
my new freedom. I keep think
ing that it won't be long until
she will be fresh again.
Just a born pessimist, I sup
pose.

Life in the Country
Door-Honging Job Brings Out Hidden
ToIents With Sow, Plane and ChiseI

I'm a believer, after all these
many years, that man can do
anything. That is. of course, if
he has, or wants, to.
All these years I've been
muddling through life with the
idea that I couldn't saw board
in two. and do it straight. A
saw in my hands just wouldn't
do what it was supposed to, and
I could get some of the oldest
shapes you ever saw.
All this has changed now. I
still can't cut a straight line
with a hand saw, but give me
one Of those little power jobs
and I'm hard to beat. And when
it comes to hanging doors-why,
I'm right there with the experts.
My new skills came about un-
der pressure. And I'll give you
one guess as to who did the
persuading. You know, of course.
Well, things had to be done,
I was told, and there wasn't any,
body but me. so I was elected
1 started out to hang shutters
in a doorway, and, of course,
found that the door wasn't
square No 6oor, I'm sure, is
ever square. 1t just isn't natural
for anything to be square.
The shutters fit fine at the
top, but lacked about an inch
and a half of closing at the
bottom.
I got desperate and called on
Tweed Howser, who brought over
with him the largest plane I
ever saw and told me to get busy.
You got yourself a job" said
Tweed. You got to take a
little off each shutter and you
better be sure to mark them so
you won't shave too high, or
you'll be in fix.
Just remember" Tweed said,
that it's easier to take off than
to put back on again. 1t will
probably take you a couple of
days hard planning"
Tweed was right, too. It did
take a lot of hard planning. But
finally the shutters fitted and
was SO proud that I had to call
in all of the neighbors so could
brag about my job.
Then came the little problem
of putting on the hinges and
hanging the shutters. West
Dodd, our local millWorker, told
me he had been at this sort of
thing for Is years and still it
wasn't easy. He told me how
to chisel out insets for the hinges
and I went to work.
I still don't know why or how
it happened. but all fitted nicely
and the shutters hung as true as
a die.
The only trouble with all of
my newly acquired skills is that
they keep me in trouble. !. no,
sooner finish one project and
think I'll sit back and mediate
for spell, when up comes an
other.
