Patching a Friendship

THE recent visit Of Prime Minister Sir
Winston Churchill of Great Britain with
President Dwight D. Eisenhower in Wash
ngton is of genuine Significance to every
American and to most citizens of the
world.
It is no secret that in recent weeks and
months British-U. S. relations have be-
come strained to degree not experienced
since the end of World War II. 1t is also no
secret that the Communists have steadily
gained political and military decisions over
the Western world since the end of World
War II. largely as a result of division and
the inability of the Western countries to
unite on course of action. This has been
the trouble in Asia since l947.
There is another significance to The
Churchll- Eisenhower meeting. 1t seems to
signify the decline Of France-the third
member Of the former Big Three no longer
being considered one Of the major three
powers of the world This is tragic de
velopnlent but one in line with the facts
and the demonstrated inability of French
Governments to reflect either stability,

move new military training program
has already been approved by the Defense
Department, and also by the Office Of De
Tense Mobilization, but White House APP
prevail has not yet been forthcoming.
Perhaps the thought in some top Adj
ministration circles is that there is little
to recommend opening a major hight on
universal military training at this time. In
an election year, so close to the end of the
proposed adjournment of Congress such
a fight might be handicapped from the
start The result it seems, will be that
universal military training will be push
ed at the next session Of Congress-provid=
ed the leadership in Congress- as Of next
January, is in favor Of scheduling such
legislation for early consideration.

Athletic Barriers

Six weeks later Autralian miller, John
Landy, running in Turku, Finland, sur
passed Bannister's mark by more than a
second, becoming the second miller to run
the distance in less than four minutes, and
becoming the new world record holder
Thus BanniSter's long cherished feat
one which some experts thought never
would be achieved remained in the record
books only six Or seven short weeks
Landy'S new record is three minutes
and fifty eight seconds. It proves that the
human species is progressing physically,
as well as mentally, and that coming gen
eratons will continue to surpass the
achievements of their ancestors. The
younger geenration it seems, manages to
make progress in spite of all the dire pre-
dictions from members of older genera
tons.

Sir Winston is probably the worlds

has probably done as much for the free

That is what seemingly happened in

there was much talk Of the four-minute

indeed no miller had ever been able to
achieve this feat until recently.
However. once the magic barrier was
broken the feat seemed to lose some of its

News For Veterans
About Benefit Checks

Nearly 100000 checks repre-
senting monetary benefits to
veterans and their dependents are
mailed out by the Veterans Ad
minstration every month. VA
said.
The principal benefit covered
in these large mailings are COM
pensation and pension payments
for CT training In schools and
colleges. -the-job and on-the-
farm. and to dependents Of de-
ceased veterans who qualify for
death benefits.
In announcing these large to-
tails. VA pointed out that under
the law. VA benefit check may
not be forwarded from one address
to another Therefore persons who
are receiving benefit checks re-
gularly were cautioned TO be sure
to inform VA promptly if they
change their address
If beneficiary moves without
having advised VA of the change
the check must be returned to
the U S. Treasury and cannot be
re-mailed until VA finds out the
new address Of the recipient. This
usually causes an unpleasant de-
lay for the person entitled to the
check
VA beneficiaries who are plan
ming to change their addresses
were advised to get a changed of :
address form from their nearest
VA office and fill it IN promptly
to notify the agency Due to the
law against forwarding checks. i
is not sufficient TO notify the post
office alone of the address
change.

year. There are many reasons

outlook. I now wish to emphasize
the probable 1854 expenditures
for NEW equipment and labor
saving machinery
Office Workers Getting Scarce
Although there is Some reduc-
ton in the total income Of wage
workers. it is mostly from reduc-
ton OF hours and loss of over
time. This results in more money
being spent on Do-It-Yourself
Improvements. This Will stimu-
late retail sales.
There is no letup in the de-
mand for office workers They
are becoming harder to get at
higher wages. Probably the de-
mand from the Government and
from the various engineering
ub-contractors is causing most
of this, but the desire OF present
women workers to get married
and have babies is a great factor
