! Almost lost in the thousands of
pages of statistics recently re-
leased In the Federal Census Of
Population was an analysis show
ing the relation of schooling to
income.
The figures show that the aver
age man with a high school dip
Iona earned $3.50 more than a man
who had only a grammar school
education. The actual figures re-
veal that a high school graduate
averages $3,285 a year against
only $2,533 for a grammar school
graduate What's more, a man
with only one to three years of
high school earns considerably less
than high school graduate.
Aside from the higher income
and self-confidence that come with
a high school diploma. the door is
opened to a college degree. The
same government study shows that
college graduates earned an aver
age of 1920 more than grammar
school graduates.

Educators are concerned over
the large numbers of teen-agers
dropping out of high school, be-
cause later on they will find that
the lack of a high school diploma
is an almost insurmountable handi.
cap as far as better jobs are con-
cerned. As a result, many men and
women, unable to attend classes,
are completing their high school
education in spare time at home by
correspondence. Thousands who
have undertaken home study have
found the method convenient, ef-
fective and economical and as re-.
suit of these courses have obtained
better paying positions and even
entered the country's leading col.

DISTURBING FACTS

Additional financial support, to provide for more
classrooms and better paid teachers must be found
to assure Americas youth the education it must have
share in and contribute to better future for all
If state communities, and private individuals and
organizations fail to provide this needed support the
federal government will step in to provide the money
That would mean higher federal taxes and reduced
local control of education But much more important
federal support would necessarily require federal control
over the kinds and quality of education Diversity would
give way to uniformity It is prospect most disturbing
to contemplate.

Kiwanis Club Has
Unusual Program
Rev. DIR. Ralph M. Holdeman
CIimaxes Talk With Magnificent
Lesson In Chalk.

A most unusual and inspiring pro-
gram was presented at the weekly
luncheon meeting of the Kiwanis
Club, at the Hotel Alexander on
Thursday, with the president, Her
man B. Hopes, in the chair.
Visitors at the meeting included:
Rev DR.. John w, Fisher, pastor of
Emmanuel cub. Church; Rev. DIR.
Earl E. Redding, pastor of Grace
cub. Church; Rev. Joseph H. Yeak-
ell, assistant pastor of st. Paul's
cub. Church; and Capt. James
Miller, of the Chambersburg, Pa,
Salvation Army Corps.
The program was presented by
Rev. DR.. Ralph M Holdeman, of Day
ton, Ohio, director of church school
administration and assistant secre-
tary of evangelism, of the Evangel-
ical United Brethren Church, who is
conducting a Preaching Mission at
st. Paul's Church here.
Dr. Holdeman, who was introduc-
ed by Rev. DR.. F. Berry Plummer,
pastor of st. Paul's, opened his pro
gram with brief talk, dealing with
the influences some people have on
the lives of others
For instance" he said, "boys have
a habit of copying grown men, often
going as far as to walk, talk and act
like men," He then cited Hitler and
the Communist Party as examples of
how a small minority group can do
anything in nation that they want
to do.
Continuing this line of thought, DIR.
Holdeman pointed out that all of us,
both young and old, need to look up
to, and pattern our lives after some
one better and higher than ourselves.
"And now" he said, II am going to
draw you picture of a real Friend
of mine, who can also be Friend of
yours"

Along The Potomac
from your Congressman,
DEWITT S. HYDE

WASHINGTON, Mar. "a - The
new look" in our foreign and de-
Tense policy has been the subject of
much recent discussion between the
President, the Vice. President, the
Secretary of State and former Gov.
Adali Stevenson. This is what
they've been talking about:
Last year our foreign policy shift
ed from an emergency to a per-
manent basis. We decided the
Russian leaders are not changing
their views about expanding Com
munism, in spite of the Korean War
and the death of Stain. So we made
our own long-range plans for diplo-
macy, and, if necessary, military ac-
ton.
These are our detectives: y To
keep military strong without I'M
necessary expense; q to provide
insurance against world war; 81 to
show the value of freedom to the
world and undermine the Red die
tators; d to assist backward areas
in technical ways so they can build
their own economic and military
strength.
We have created capacity to
retaliate swiftly against aggression
- when, where and how we want
to. Secretary Dulles now says that
if the Reds start fighting in Korea,
the U. N. won't have to stop it's
planes at the Manchurian border as
we did during the war. Does that
sound familiar? General Macarthur
tried to achieve that policy four
years ago.
We're building free world mill
tary force just like a community fire
department. There will still be local
forces - just as you have means to
put out a small fire in your own
house, or keep it from spreading till
the firemen arrive. With every kind
of arms, from pistols to H-bombs,
the world "fire department" stands
ready to answer the call to action
in case of more Red aggression.
Building community striking
force is much less expensive than
creating a big force in every individ-
ual country. We're going to spend
ten per cent less in our own mill
tary budget next year than we did
two years ago. We are eliminating
foreign economic aid as major part
of our foreign policy, because other
nations are now able to provide more
for themselves.
This all adds up to "the new look"
As Secretary Dulles says, let's hope
that now we're able to meet our
present danger, we can try to put
an end to the danger.
The House has approved $1,000
900 and 100000 for flood control
at the Peace Cross and at Cumber-
land | have introduced a bill
to permit veterans to refinance
mortgages under the CT Bill, to the
extent of $500 instead of the pres
ent $4,000 limit This Friday I
address the Red Cross campaign
luncheon here. Saturday the Mary
land Historical Society gives re-
ception in the Senate Office Build
ing for Ellen Marie Johnson, Mary
lands Cherry Blossom princess.
That night Mrs. Hyde and I will at
tend the dinner-dance of the Cabin
John Volunteer Fire Department.
Next Tuesday I will meet members
of the Maryland Women's Council at
the Capitol.

County Increases
FireCo. Payments

At the regular weekly meeting of
the Board of County Commissioners.
held on Tuesday, the Board, at the
request of the Washington County
Firemen's Association, voted to in
crease the county's contribution to
the six city volunteer fire companies
from $500 year to $500 year.
This increase was in line with the
county's action of some months ago
when, also at the request of the
County Firemen's Association, they
doubled the contribution to the coun-
ty fire companies, the increase be-
ing from 5000 year to $1,000 a
year.
