on disunity among the allies
to prevent any effective build
ing UP of a European army.
The Moscow government
holds those trump cards, but
the biggest Of all is her peace
full co-existence' propaganda
that so many people in the
Western countries. including
the United States, are accept
ing with the same gullible and
wishful thinking which caused
them to advocate live-and-
let-live philosophy toward Hit
Ter in the 1930S. Hitler saw
the weakness of the Allies as
giving him his chance for more
and more encroachment. He,
too, didn't believe he waslrisk-
ing war when he attacked Po-
land, or that France and Eng
land would really fight. If
they did, he figured, the vic
tory would be his before the
West could do anything to up
set his program.
Probably nobody in the Po-
litburo wants to start a world
war. but there is bound to be
some chance-taking and some
risks incurred because of the
disunion among the Western
states. The weakness of the
West which is disclosed in the
growth of the peace-at-any-
price philosophy is the most
dangerous symptom of the
cold war" that has yet been
revealed.
It's a long time between the
voting in the French Parlia-
ment and the actual rearming
of Germany. Moscow has not
exhausted her moves, and
hasn't yet shown her bel
ligerency. When she really
starts out to frighten the
Western alliance, the advo-
Gates Of peace at any price
may then raise their cry, I'VE

For, while pacifism is a ration
allied philosophy, it's good
only up to the moment the
bombs of the aggressor begin
to drop-and then it's too late
to assess the blame for the
havoc that has been wrought.

Prime ministers of five Asian
nations. with midas Nehr.u
having top billing. are work
ing out plans at q meeting in
Indonesia for an Afro-Asian
conference next year. The
reason for this projected con-
ference is to define the role IF
q third force which IN the
event of a world conflagrat!on
intends to preserve its neu-
trality.
Considering the fact that
some Of the prime ministers
attending, such as the Premier
OF Pakistan. already are IN the
anti Communist camp. while
the Indian, Indonesian and
Burmese leaders are ''neutrals
with strong leanings toward
Communist China" the har-
mony at Jakarta may be mole
superficial than real.
While Mr.. Nehru is an en-
thusiastic advocate of peace at
any price and a faithful Char
lie Mccarthy in repeating the
peaceful co-existence" slogans
after the men in Peiping and
Moscow. he takes a realistic
view of the world situation.
Before leaving New Delhi for
the Indonesian capital he
stated: There is no European
or Asian peace these days.
Neither world peace nor worlG
war. Such a war might be
touched off in any part of the
world and in such a case the
whole world will be more or
less involved. I do not mean
to say that everybody will be-
come involved as a belligerent.
We have no intention of do
ing this insofar as India is
concerned; and other coun-
tries in Asia feel likewise"
The Indian leader who has
DEVELOPED recently a strong
taste for Communist economic
doctrines and plans to ma
tionalize his country's eco
nomic life points out that For
mosa. the Nationalist-held is
lands close to the Communist
mainland and Indo-C China, are

Tell About Hawaii Goodwill Trip

Using this city on Oahu as their
base, they flew to Hawaii, the
Orchid Island, so named because
Of its huge gardens of the tropical
flower. Here they hired a car and
visited the famous City of Refuge
of the old Hawaiian kings, the
beaches of black sand, the Kilavea
Crater, the Fern Forest, the Rain
bow Falls, the National Park and
beautiful Hilo Bay.
From Hawaii, they flew to
Maui, the valley island and driv-
ing through sugar cane fields came
to Lahaina, early capitol of Royal
Hawaii, and old whaling harbor.
The ancient charm Of Hama de-
lighted them. They saw the sun
set and rise on top Of Haleakala
Crater. Fortified with a thermos
of hot coffee and blankets they de-
fled 36-degree temperature and
a terrific gale to photograph the
dawn.
They returned to Honolulu on
July End and made Navy tour of
Pearl Harbor and were entertained
at the Navy base by Mr.. and Mrs.
Finley Gordon, jr., Collinwood
graduates.
They participated, July 3rd, in
the radio broadcast Hawaii Calls"
which was rebroadcast over WIKI
July 4th. They enjoyed a Luau
roast pig dinner, roasted under
leaves on the ground and they
wore to this feast the Holomuu,
the Hawaiian native dress. They
have bathed at Waikiki, visited
the big pineapple factory and even
sailed out and boarded the Steamer
Lurline on its way into Diamond
Head. Everywhere they go they
are greeted with the big hello,
"aloha, aloha, aloha nui" and pre-
sented with orchid leis and orchid
corsages, for the Hawaiians are
a happy and hospitable people.
When this goes to press they
will be flying to Kauai which is
primitive island of unspoiled
beauty lying west of Oahu. 1t is
known as the Garden Island. Here
is the Waimea Canyon, "the little
Grand Canyon of the Pacific" and
the inspiring Napali Cliff.
After few days rest in Homo
lulu they will fly to Los Angeles,
California where they will visit
Mr.. and Mrs. Kenneth Scott, Shaw
classmates of Miss Jones. On July
18th. Ell Captain will route them
through the Southwest with a
days stop-over in Chicago and an
other Photographic holiday will
end when the train pulls in Cleve-
lands terminal station.

Who May
Vote In
The Fall

We are welcoming a great num-
Der of "new voters" to the polls
this year. Consequently, we would
like to call attention to persons
who are now 20 years of age but
who will be 21 before ----ovem-
ber 2, 1854, that they may regis
ter NOW, if they live in an area
in Ohio where registration is re-
quired so that they may vote at
the General Election on Novem-
Der End.
The law in Ohio specifically pro-
vides that it is not necessary that
first-voter be 21 on the date of
registration-it is only required
election day. So don't lose your
vote!
Persons who will have been resi-
dents of the state one year on
November End may also register
at this time for the General Elec-
tion.
Many counties having registra-
tion will also open branch offices
for the taking of registration, or
will open each polling place in
the county at some time before
registration closes in order to ac-
commodate persons who desire to
register or to change their regis
tration. Voters should watch their
newspapers for the notice of the
time such offices will be open for
registration. In the meantime, how
ever, persons residing in regis
tration territory may go to the
office of their County Board Of
Elections and register there. A
good rule is to REGISTER NOW!

Lawn Fete Has
A Serious Purpose

AS in previous years, Winder.
mere Methodist young people are
again sponsoring an annual lawn
fete. The date is Friday, July
10th, at 1880 p. m. at the chruch.
This popular church function has
become traditional at Windermere.
Not only do Windermere church
members enjoy this annual festiv-
ity, but many passersby have
stopped for refreshments and visit
ing on the lawn of the church
parsonage.
Although many people are IA
miliar with the lawn fete, few per-
haps are aware of its overall pur-
pose. By participating in this
event the public helps to pay part
of the expense of sending young
people to Lakeside Methodist In
stitute. At Lakeside many teen
ayers in the past have better
learned the art of living in a com
plex world, and in number of
cases have decided on full time
Christian vocation.
For weeks now the lawn fete
committee, consisting of Toni
Daugherty, Margaret Hunsicker,
Pete Hoegstrom, Sue Gent, Dave
Knapp, Sue Standing and Dale
Smith, has been busy with the
many details involved in making
this a successful evening. This
committee is under the supervision
of Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Cumler.
So take the family out Friday
night and meet your neighbors and
friends at Windermere Methodist
Church. Enjoy delicious ice cream,
homemade cake and soft drinks,
but best of all make an investment
in youth.

Must 1000 children die in traffic

Speaking on behalf of the cur

Safety program which the Della

in cooperation with the National

His life is in your hands"
Whenever you drive, watch out

kids often seem to materialize
out of thin Albright in the mo-

BE on the alert for them as they
speed along on bikes or roller
skates as they dart out from
behind parked cars as they
hesitate on the curb, then plunge
across the street.
And be sure to watch for them
at ALL crossings-marked or un-
marked" he said.

they may be dangerously near. So
