Boy Scouts Will
Celebrate 44th
Birthday Feb. 7-13

The nations 100000 Cub
Scouts, Boy Scouts, Explorers and
their adult leaders will observe the
44th birthday of the organization
during Boy Scout Week, Feb. z to
13.
The theme of the observance is
Forward on Liberty's Team" the
current major emphasis of the
movement, which seeks to produce
a greater functioning manpower
and provide a higher quality pro-
gram for its ever-increasing boy
membership.
The anniversary is to be observ-
ed by $4,000 Units in all parts of
the nation, its possessions and also
in other parts of the world where
American families reside.
A principal activity of Boy Scout
Week will be paying tribute to the
volunteer adult leaders of the &c.
600 Units for the contribution they
are making to the boyhood of the
nation.
THE Boy Scouts of America is
one of the largest volunteer adult
education or training groups of the
nation" said DR.. Arthur A. Schuck,
the Chief Scout Executive. "Al-
most 100000 of our leaders took
training courses in Scouting and
leadership techniques last year."
When the Boy Scouts of Amer
lea was incorporated in Washing
ton, D. c., on Feb. 8, 1910, it was
founded as the voluntary move
ment it still remains. DR.. Schuck
said there are now 100000 Scout
ers who take time from their own
careers to give service in Scouting
in order to help their communities
do a better job of building citi-
zens."
Scouting belongs to the Ameri-
can people who have made it pos
sible," he concluded. This is
thoroughly in accord with our
democratic ideals and the Amer
lean way of life. AS a voluntary
movement its doors are open to
every boy of every race and religi-
Gus belief who wants to come in. 1t
is dependent upon men who care
enough about boyhood and Amer
ican institutions to volunteer their
time in Scouting"
Recognition of the leaders of the
$4,000 Units of Scouting will take
many forms. Generally the Cub
Scouts, 8, 9, and 10-year-old MEM
bers who follow a home-centered
program in their homes and back
yards, will honor their Cubmasters
at blue and Gold Banquets"
Many will present small, useful
gifts they have made in apprecia-
ton for their leadership. A Cubs
dad or mother will speak for the
other parents. There are about 3d.
900 Cubmasters.
Boy Scouts who are IL to 13
years old will have open House"
evening meetings at which they
will introduce members of their
family to fellow Scouts. Former
Scouts will be welcomed and pay
tribute to the Scoutmaster. Many
Scouts will present handicraft
items to their Scoutmaster. Par
ents will speak on the wholesome
benefits their sons get through the
Troop. About $4,000 men are
Scoutmasters.
Explorers are members IA years
of age and older, who follow pro-
gram of adventuring in the open;
getting along socially with others;
being of service to others and ex-
ploring lifework possibilities. Many
will hold a progressive party"

Committeeman they first present

and fun employment. It would
be justified by the need for this
kind of economic strength In
meeting world problems.
We must continue to explore
ways In which nuclear discover
les can be turned to the service
of mans peaceful needs. Since
our Nations proposal for an
international effort toward this
end was laid before the United
Nations last December, we have
taken the initiative in this di-
rection. We would welcome the
participation of the Soviet
Union. But this great effort for
human welfare cannot wait
upon their decision.
Third Major Aim.
Our third major road leads
us to maintain enough military
strength to deter aggression and
to help keep peace IN the world.
This strength is a trust on
which rests the hope of free men.
Neither in size nor in char
acter can our military establish
ment remain static. With con-
stant,y changing dangers, with
rapidly changing developments
in the science of warfare, our
military forces. too, must change.
From atomic submarine to
atomic cannon, from new weap-
on systems to new military
organizations, this giant, COM
plex structure must respond to
the current needs of our time.
Above all, its purpose is to pre-
vent aggression and war. Our
forces will never be used to
initiate war against any nation;
they will be used only for the
defense of the free world.
Together with the armed
strength of other free nations,
our military power-the great
est in our peacetime history-ls
today deterrent to war. This
awesome power we must ana
shall maintain, for we are de-
termined that at all times, in
today's uncertain world, we shall
be able to deal effectively and
flexibly with whatever situations
may arise.
My friends, in these many ways
our Nation will continue tire
lessly in its quest for peace based
on justice. In recent months, we
have come far-and yet we know
that the road, ahead is long and
difficult. But we shall continue
to press on toward our goal.
And as we do. we shall keep
faith with those. of earnest
America who, as they came to
these shores three centuries and
more ago, launching a venture in
freedom unparalleled in mans
struggle over the ages, sought
peace and freedom and justice,
for themselves and for those who
were to follow. eE
Yes, my friends, we know, with
the phrophet Isaiah, that the
work of righteousness shall be
peace.
We know that the Lord will
give strength unto all Of us as
we strive tirelessly, confidently,
for peace.
Evening star., 1954-10-21

In this effort, we must help to
harmonize the divergent views
of the many free, Self-governing
nations, and without encroaching
upon rights which all people
cherish. For in the diversities
of freedom are a tremendous
might-a might which the i'm
posed system of communism can
never match.
Our Nation, because. of it's un-
matched productivity and power,
both existing and potential, holds
prime responsibility for main
tanning peace. How, then shall
we meet this responsibility? With
what policies can we best pursue
our goal Of peace?
Certain fundamentals are
clear. Our Nation does not covet
the territory of any people. We
have no wish to dominate others.
The peace we seek is a secure and
a Just peace, not bought at the
expense of others, of principle,
or of abject surrender of our
vital interests. Peace so bought
would at best be an illusion, and
at worst permanent loss of all
that we hold most dear.
The following avenues must
be trod as we make our way
toward our peace goal.
First, we must tirelessly seek
through the United Nations,
through every other available
means-to establish the condi-
tions for honorable peace.
Second, we must promote the
unity and collective strength of
other free peoples.
Third, we must maintain
enough military strength to de-

funds thus saved. q worldwide
development program.
The second road leading to-
ward our peaceful goal concerns
our efforts to strengthen and
unity other free peoples.
To meet the challenge destiny
has laid upon our country, we
must strive to help free peoples
achieve their own security and
well-being; we must encourage
regional groupings of these peo-
pies; we must ourselves foster
and practice policies that en-
courage profitable trade and
productivity in the free world.
Progress Noted.
In these areas, there has been
heartening progress. We have
broadened our alliances. We
have helped to remove sources
of conflict. We have helped
to build firmer foundations
for social and economic prog
ress in our quest for peace.
For some years free world ns.-
tions have sought to associate
the Federal Republic of Ger
many in the Atlantic Commu-
nifty. Rejection of the European
Defense Treaty by the French
Assembly seven weeks ago was
a setback to that hope. Yet, no
nation in Western Europe was
willing to accept this setback as
final. In the recent meetings at
London, the free Western ma
tions reasserted their basic unity
and established q new pattern
for achieving their common
purposes. Secretary Of State
Dulles has just Joined our Euro

pean allies In Paris In further
important negotiations to
strengthen European co-opera-
ton.
In southeast Asia, we have
sought united action to pre-
serve for the free countries Of
that area the independence ac-
corded them at the end of
World War II. Unfortunately, in
recent years no foundation was
laid for effective united action
to prevent Communist gains. Be
cause Of their consequent iso-
lation, the governments that
bore the burden of the Indo-
China war UNDERSTANDABLE
sought its conclusion in the face
Of the limitless manpower of
China.
But recently at Manila we sue
ceeded in negotiating a treaty
with Asian and European coun-
tries. This pact symbolizes the
desire Of these nations to act
together against aggression and
to consult together on measures
against subversion. The Manila
pact. bringing together states
Of the East and the West. and
the related Pacific charter are
a long step toward the peaceful
progress to which all Asian
peoples aspire, whether or not
members Of the pact.
Bulwark Of Freedom.
In this hemisphere, we have
strengthened our solid UNDER
standing with our American
neighbors. At the Caracas con-
ference earlier this year, the
American republics agreed that
If international communism
were to gain control of the po-
litical institutions of any one
American state. this control
would endanger them all and
therefore would demand collec-
tive action. Recently such a
threat arose in Guatemala. The
American states were preparing
to act together to meet it when
the Guatemalans themselves re-
moved the danger. The Caracas
agreement will stand as a bull
wark of freedom in the Western
Hemisphere.
In a number of areas through
out the free world, dangers to
peace have been eliminated. The
problem of Trieste, a threat to
peace for a decade, has now
been satisfactorily solved by
Italy and Yugoslavia, with
friendly assistance from the
United States and Great Britain.
Egypt and Britain appear to
have reached an amicable adjust
ment on questions centering on
Suez. Iran has been helped in
settling its difficult internal
problems and is moving toward
firm and friendly relations with
the West.
In the Near East, we are all
regretfully aware that the major
difference between Israel and the
Arab states remain unresolved.
Our goal there, as elsewhere, is
just peace. BY friendship toward
both. we shall continue to con-
tribute to peaceful relations
among these peoples. And in
helping to strengthen the Sc

curity OF the entire Near East,
we shall make sure that any arms
we provide are devoted to that
purpose. not TO creating local
imbalances which could be used
for intimidation of or aggression
against any neighboring nations.
In every such arrangement we
make with any nation. there is
ample assurance that this dis
tortion Of purpose cannot occur.
Hope is Justified.
The fact that so many stub
born problems have been re-
solved with patience and for
berance surely justifies our hope
that. by similar efforts, the
nations of the free world will
be able to eliminate other prob
lens. Such efforts themselves
tend to bring the free nations
closer together. In speaking re-
Gently of the London conference,
Sir Winston Churchill said of
his country and the United
States. True and friendly COM
prehension between our kindred
nations has rarely reached a
higher standard"
When we think of these many
encouraging developments over
the world, and the patient. help
full work that brought them
about-when we contemplate the
fact that the seemingly endless
war in Korea. with its tragic
casualty lists, is a thing of the
past-and when we see improve
ment in area after area, from
Suez to Iran, from Trieste to
Guatemala, from London to
Manila-then we indeed take
heart.
In addition, we must devise
means by which more highly de-
veloped countries. can assist
peoples who face the difficulties
of an earlier stage of economic
development.
AS we continue to assist in
these efforts. we shall also con-
tribute much to free world unity
by the wise use of our great
economic power. We have, in the
past. provided indispensable as
sistance to our partners. We con-
tinue to stand ready to help:
To repair the ravages of war;
to ease economic difficulties
caused by vital efforts to build
defensive military strength; to
relieve disasters from flood or
famine.
No One-Way Street.
Economic relations, however,
are not one-way street. If the
common goal is to be reached,
free nations must subordinate
the selfish to the general interest.
All must bear their fair share
of the common burden. All must
do more to liberalize the ex-
change of goods among free
peoples. Let us be mindful, first
Of all. Of our own responsibility
in this field. Bold action could
release powerful forces of eco
nomic enterprise from which
the whole free world would bene-
fit.

ter aggression and promote
peace.
In these thoughts, we Ameri-
cans overwhelmingly agree.
To examine briefly the first
principal avenue, we stand ready
to join all others in removing
fear among nations. We shall
resolutely adhere to the princi-
Piles of the United Nations Char
ter. We shall constantly urge
the Communist rulers to do the
same. We shall keep open the
existing channels for negotia-
ton and shall use them when
ever there is any propect OF
positive results.
At the Berlin and Geneva con-
ferences, our Nation sought seri-
Gus negotiation on German
unity. on a treaty for Austria,
and on political settlement for
Korea Our efforts found no
similar response from the Com
munist side. We will not be mis-
led by proposals intended to
divide the free nations and to
delay their efforts to build their
own defenses. Nevertheless, no
matter how discouraging the
prospect, no matter how intract-
able the Communist regimes, we
shall press on in search for
agreement.
We viii welcome an agreement
on a workable system for limit
ing ornaments and controlling

armaments burden can be lifted,

recall that wonderful proph-
ecy of Isaiah: And the work Of
righteousness shall be peace; and

ness and assurance forever"
The pursuit OF peace is at once
our religious obligation and our
national policy. Peace in free
dom-where all men dwell in Sc
curity-is the ideal toward which
our foreign policy is directed.
I know that I am speaking to
people who deeply love peace. I
know that, with all other Ameri-
cans. you share a profound
thanksgiving that. for the first
time in 90 years. there is no

Gains Cited.
Moreover, while fighting has
been brought to a halt during
the past 81 months, still other
developments favorable to the
maintenance of peace have been
brought about through under
standing and through persistent
and patient work. in which your
Government has been a helpful
participant. Some of these de-
velopments have commanded our
headlines - Korea, Indo- China,
Egypt, Trieste, Iran, Guatemala.
Our people and their Govern
ment are dedicated to making
this a just and lasting peace.
In the years Immediately
ahead, the advancement of peace
will demand much of us-our
strength. our patience, our wis
dom, our will. 1t will demand,
above all, a realistic comprehen-
sion Of the world and of its
challenging problems. Some of
the factors in these problems are
new, some old.
The principal and continuing
factor is the persistently aggres-
sive design of Moscow and Pei
ping. which shows no evidence
of genuine change despite their
professed desire to relax tensions
and to preserve peace. Continu-
ing. also, is the breadth and
scope of the Communist attack;

arsenal, whether intended for

The major new factor in the

NEW YORK. Oct. 2f.-Here
Is the tert OF the address By
President Eisenhower at the
American JeiDish Tercentenary
dinner last night at the Shera-
ton Astor Hotel:
Fellow Americans:
We have come together In
memory Of an inspiring moment
In history-that moment, 800
years ago, when a small band
Of Jewish people arrived on
the ship Saint Charles" in what
was then the Dutch colony of
New Amsterdam. It was an event
meaningful not only to the Jews
of America. but to all Americans
of all faiths. Of all national
origins.
On that day there came to
these shores % people whose
distant ancestors had. through
the Old Testament. given new
dimensions of meaning to the
concepts of freedom and justice,
mercy and righteousness, kind
ness and Observation-Disclosures
and ideals which were to flower
on this continent. They were of
a people who had done much to
give to western civilization the
principle Of human dignity: they
came to a land which would
flouriSh-beyond all 18th CEN
tury dreams-because it fostered
that dignity among its citizens.
OF all religious concepts, this
belief in the infinite worth of
the individual is beyond doubt
among the most important. On
this faith our forefathers con-
structed the framework Of our
republic.
In this faith in human dig
nifty is the major difference be-
tween our own concept of life
and that of enemies of freedom.
The chief of these enemies a
decade and more ago were Nazi
and Fascist forces which de-
stroyed SO many Of our fellow
men. Today the Communist
conspiracy is the principal in
fiuence that derides the truth
OF human worth and, with athe-
tstic ruthlessness, seeks to de-
stroy the free institutions estab-
lished on the foundation Of that
truth.
Why They Came.
Asher Levy and his party came
to this land on that long ago
day because even then they had
to find a country where they
could safely put into practice
their belief in the dignity of
man.
In this respect-as in so many
others-they were no different
from scores Of other groups that
landed on our shores. Only "a
years earlier. another party had
landed at Plymouth Rock. That
group. too, came here in the
hope Of escaping persecution
Of gaining religious freedom
Of settling quiently in the will
derness to build their homes and
rear their families.
And there was another noble
concept Of our common Judeo-
Christian civilization shared by
these two groups and by all

Fish m Chips Are Party Fare
When. Served the Right Way

FOR novel supper party, follow the
British custom, and serve fish n
chips. It'll go well any time of year,
and at any season. Since both the
crisp, fried fish and the French-fried
potatoes are finger food, serve them
from baskets with generous dishes of
tartar sauce for dipping. To complete
the supper menu, serve a tossed green
salad and a simple dessert. Use fish
that takes well to deep-fat frying such
as haddock, whitefsh, sole, cod, lake or
sea trout Either fresh or frozen fillets
may be used. Here is the complete
recipe for French-fried fish: Cut cleaned
fish into strips three inches by one
inch. If using fresh fish, dip in an
egg wash prepared by combining one
beaten egg and half a cup of milk;
drain well. If using frozen fish, egg
wash is unnecessary. Roll in dry ready
mix for pancakes. Shake off excess
coating. Fry in deep, hot fat (375 de-
greeS F.) about minutes.
