IT WON'T GET LOST

The problem of world communism, President Eisenhower told his press conference may last for 40 years And, considering the fact that have already been confronted with it for 39 years-during which time position has continually deterorated-ths would seem, barring world conflagraton, very modest prognosticaton
 As for outlawing all trade between the free world and iron curtain countries the President indicated this would never happen if he had his way. He stressed the need for more liberal American foreign trade policies aid in building up allies who make a living. But he did not mention that there might be room for cooperation in this direction by the allies also.
 Perhaps should begin to wonder whether America, 40 years from now-after 40 years of foreign aid, of giving all and asking nothing of re- stricting trade with the Reds while allies expand thers-will also be able to make living. It seems unlikely that the problem of world communism would then be any less acute.

Freak Tidal Wave Sweeps Chicago's l.. Michigan Shore

CHICAGO, RAA huge, freak tidal wave swept Chicago's Lake Michigan shore for a distance of several miles Saturday, washing at least a score of fishermen into the water.
 Police said at least three bodies had been recovered and that more were feared drowned. Coast Guard boats, police and fire equipment were called to aid in the rescue efforts.
 Most of the victims were swept into the water from two rock jetties at Montrose Harbor and off pier at North Avenue, both on Chicago's North Side.
 Estimates of the height of the wave varied. It covered the rock jetties with at least four feet of water. It surged over an eight foot sea wall at Loyola University, about six or seven miles north of North Avenue.
 At the Rogers Park Beach, the water swept about 100 feet up onto the shore. Sam Leone, direc- tor of the City life guard service, said there was at least five-foot rise in the water at this beach several miles north of Montrose Harbor. An hour after the big wave struck, the lake waters along the north shore were still turbulent, Leone said.

Prospective Operators Look Over Limestone Deposits In SEE. Alaska

KETCHIKAN, R-A possibility that big limestone deposits owned by Aluminium Company of Am erica at Edna Bay on Koscuisko Island may be taken over by others was indicated Friday with arrival of six-man party which flew there to make surveys.
 J. w. Handy, one of the party members from Dallas, Tex, said he expects to, take out between 40 and 50 sacks of limestone for tests. Another member of the party, Matthew Ryan, assistant to the president of the States and Quaker Steamship Lines, said he was along to locate a site for ocean-going freighters to dock.
 The limestone workings have been idle four years and never have been fully developed by Alcoa.

 years ahead. Nothing, therefore, could be more important to the future welfare of the people of America than the substance of the education that will be given to the 35,000,000 youngsters who will enroll in our schools next September. A sound observation regarding one phase of this edu- cation has been made by Mark c. Schinnerer, superintendent of the Cleveland, Ohio, schools.
 John w. Studebaker, chairman of the Scholastic Magazines edi- torial board and former U. S. Commissioner of Education, com mends Dr. Schinnerer's statement and I hope it will be read by all parents and teachers, by every body. "ThiS is about the teaching of economies" Dr. Schinnerer wrote. Ut is not directed just to teachers of economics, but to all teachers. It is directed to all teachers because the job that needs to be done cannot be done by just the teachers of economics.
 We Have Failed"
 "There is a colossal oVerSupply of people in my country who either never discovered some of the basic principles of economics or think that the economic laws have been repealed. We hear much wailing that the schools have failed in this regard and the cry is for required courses in economics.We have failed - in school and out-but the answer is not in required courses.
 ''The answer, in my opinion, lies in a continuous effort to inculcate in children, from the kindergarten through high school, some basic and very simple facts. There are three things which all most anyone can be brought to understand and if these three are ingrained, we can leave the more complicated principles to the ex- perts.
 Nothing for Nothing
 "No. 1. You cant get some thing for nothing." Too many think they can. That is the basis of gambling and most speculation. Giving a higher mark in school than is earned is proving that the student can get something for nothing. That is bad business. When parents urge no homework, they somehow expect something for nothing. One gets out of school work about what he puts into it. Only parasites get some thing for nothing.
 "No. 2. You can't spend more than you have and remain sol vent. The longer such a system is followed, the more impossible it becomes to keep afloat. Know anyone who trades in a mort gagged car on a new one and has both a newer car and bigger mortgage? The woods are full of such people. It is bad economics. It's somewhat like drug addic- tion. This applies equally to a person, a business, or govern ment.

Sweden, USSR
Navy Units To
Trade Visits

STOCKHOLM = The Swedish
and Soviet navies will exchange
courtesy visits this summer. The
first squadron of the Swedish
Combat Fleet, consisting of the
cruiser Tire Kronor' ("Three
Crowns" and four destroyers, UNI
der command of the chief of the
Combat Fleet, Rear Admiral Erik
af Klint, will make a visit to
Leningrad. simultaneously the So
Wet navy will send a squadron to
Stockholm, probably consisting of
cruiser of the "Sverdlov" type,
the vessel which represented the
Soviet Union at the naval parade
in connection with Queen Eliza
beth's coronation last year, and
four modern destroyers of a type
not previously seen outside Rus
sian waters. This will be the first
Russian naval visit to Stockholm
in forty years. The only earlier
one since the revolution took
place in 1925, when a cruiser
and a training vessel made a
semi-offcial call at Gothenburg.
Most Swedish newspapers re-
gard the agreement between the
two navies as an expression of
Russian interest in improved con-
facts with the outside world. The
G OF h burg Handelstidningen
writes that for the Swedish peo-
pie the Russian visit will serve
as a welcome reminder that, des-
pite everything peace prevails in
Europe. Another Liberal newspa-
per, Vestmanlands Lans Tidning,
observes, ironically. that the Rus
SLAMS actually will show greater
courtesy than the Swedes, their
territorial waters now extending
over twelve nautical miles while
Sweden only can offer passage
through the customary three or
four.

Short
Wildcat
Strike

STOCKHOLM (By airmaaiD =
A wildcat strike broke out in the
port of Gothenburg on April %.
and two days later nearly 1000
dock workers in sixteen harbors
were involved. Most of the strik-
ers went back to work on April
26 or 81, after union leaders had
threatened to expel any who de-
fled the back-to-work order. The
workers had objected to a new
collective agreement signed by the
national union. The agreement had
previously been rejected by a ma
jority of the voting union men,
bers, but the union was still en-
titled to sign it, as long as it
had not been voted down by ma
jority of all the members.
The papers point out that this
is the first incident of it's kind
since the establishment of the La
Dor Court, to which all disputes
concerning the application and in
depreciation of collective agree
ments already signed must be re-
ferred. Early in 1851 the dock
workers also staged a wildcat
strike, but at that time no COL
lective agreement was in force.
The employers have decided, in
principle, to indict all the strikers
before the Labor Court, where
they could be sentenced to pay
damages of a maximum of 200
kronor (about $4O) each for break
ing the Swedish laws on collective
agreements. The verdicts of the
Court are without appeal. The in
stitution was established in 1928
and has long enjoyed the whole
hearted support of the labor move
ment.
