TWO PRESIDENTS


Two Presidents have recently
announced their convictions that
as America was founded on
mans belief in God, to keep
strong this nation must remain
steadfast in the Faith of our
Forefathers.
The first, Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, President of the U.S.A.,
in an address to the nation over
radio and television on April 5th,
said:
81 don't think it's amiss in this
season of the year that has so
many religious over-tones to re-
call attention to this fact, that
in conception our nation has
spiritual foundation, so announc-
ed by the men who wrote the
Declaration of independence. Do
you remember what they said?
We hold that all men are en-
dowed by their Creator with GER
tain rights That is a spiritual
conception. It's the explanation
of our form of government that
our Founding Fathers decided
upon. And now, today, that
spiritual strength is just as great
in its requirements as it has ever
been in our whole history. By
this l mean it is very important
that you and l value the spirit
ual things that they had in mind
when they founded this coun-
try"
On March 9th, just few
days prior to the Chief Execu-
tive'S address, Clifford F. Hood
President of the United States
Steel Corp, addressed the Len
ten Communion Service of the
Episcopal Diocese of Pittsburgh
He warned that the televisior
set must share with the Bible
its prominent position in thu
| American home or individual
liberty will be lost to Americ;
in the current cold war crisis.
Wherever freedom has re
treated before the onslaught O
Communism or its equivalents,
said Mr.. Hood, "the actual prac
ticing of Christianity likewis
has lost ground"
He pointed out that Easter
Europe is Goddess realm; tha
Western Europe teeters and tot
ters on the edge of a precipic
from which there may be no re
turn; that in China the suppress
sion of religion is just about com
plete; and that in North Korej

This Week
in
Washington


Many Washington observers
have recently expressed the idea
that the best thing about the
Mccarthy Army dispute was the
fact that it for so long kept the
minds of many Americans from
dwelling too much upon the
Indo-China situation.
The early-ApriI debate in Con-
greSs on the crisis in Indo-China
would have received wide ma
tionwide play had it alone been
the big news story of the mo-
ment.
In this debate, the pattern of
Congressional thought was so
clearly outlined as to hint at
what action Congress might pre-
fer when the situation reached
the Showdown" stage. When the
United States was urging its
allies to back the warning" to
the Chinese Reds, Senate floor
leader Senator William F.
Knowland of California asked
that these allies be ready to con-
tribute their share of military
strength if the free world had
to fight to guard Southeast Asia.
Senator Henry M. Jackson,
Democrat of Washington, with
apparent approval of some of his
colleagues, called for the presi-
dent to step forth with concrete
statements as to what he would
require in the way of backing
for Indo-China policy, declar.
ing the Democrats would be
found willing to help.
Senator Stuart Symington
Democrat of Missouri, voicec
the opinion that the United
States appeared to be approach
ing great military test in Asi;
and at the same time was reduc
ing the military establishment.
Senator John Stennis, Demo
crat of Mississippi, an early criti
of what he called a move towar'
United States involvement, an
nounced that he nevertheless
was prepared to see Congress g
to war if necessary, always pro
vided that the United States dic
not go it alone.
| A significant fact was that tn
entire hour and one-half discus
sion brought out only a singh
outright expression of opposition

IPSYCHIATRIST
PTA SPEAKER
DR.. Harry S. Howard Discuss
es Effect of Parental At
titudes on Children
SHOWS FILM

The January meeting of the
Smyrna Special District School
Parent Teacher Association was
held last Thursday night at the
Smyrna Elementary School, with
Brinton Reynolds presiding. DR.
Harry S. Howard, of the staff at
the Mental Clinic at Delaware
State Hospital, was presented by
Kenneth C. Williams, elementary
school principal. After showing a
film, 'The Angry Boy" which en-
phasized the effect of parental at
titudes and anxieties on the lives
Of their children, DR.. Howard talk
ed on this subject. Parents are
human, he said and are influenced
by their own emotional disturb
ances, by their wishes, hopes,
neighbors, money, their homes and
flected in the training of their OK
spring. He cited cases of the
child's effort to prove he is a per-
son, by rebellion against parental
authority. In an effort ito do a
good job, many parents overdo
and forget to be human, the psy-
chiatrist continued. Other cases
cited were those of the child
whose life is lived for him, there
by keeping him from showing in :
iatitive. Parents resent competi-
tion, he stated, and live in a COM
munity of caves, conforming to
others. They should stand up and
do what they want to do, he con-
cluded. In answer to question
about youthful marriages he said
that the young often run away to
marriage rather than going for
ward to it." They do this to es-
cape situations in their own homes,
he explained. Children need less
protection than we think they do,
he said, when questioned about
parents worrying about the type of
playmates they have. Mr.. Reynolds
named a nucleus of committee
to deal with the school lunch prob
lem and the need for financial as
sistance. 1t includes Mrs. James
Rogers, Mrs. Perkins Stats, and
John Pappas. Mrs. John Sheridan
reported 1924 paid-up members Of

4-H-ERs RESUME MEETINGS
Sea Gull Club Meet and Choose
New Projects

Eight ambitious Alters were
present to choose new projects and
fill out enrolment cards for 1854
at the first meeting of the year of
the Woodland Beach Sea Gulls All
Club on January 13. Although the
number of members has decreased
as compared with previous years.
the club plans to accomplish more
things this year than any other
past year. Evidence of this was
shown in the wide variety of prof.
ects chosen: gardening, cooking,
sewing, ironing, home improve
ment, room improvement, swine,
and personal financial record. In
addition each member is carrying
health projects. The club has car
ried health as a club project since
it was organized in 1850. They
received an award in 1852 for their
health work and hope to accom-
plish the same this year through
constant work. The new officers
chosen to carry on the executive
work are David Marsh, president;
Antoine Media, vice-president;
Carolyn Marsh, secretary, and
Rep; Edwin Robinson, treasurer;
Zane Robinson and Simon Media,
recreation leaders; and Mary Ann
Moore and Ellen Biggs, song lead
ers. The members will attend as
many project training classes as
possible. They feel that these
classes play an important part in
the success of the club. The mem
bers also plan to raise money by
selling all occasion cards and sta
tionery throughout the year. The
profits from these sales will be
used to help send several members
to All Short, Course at the u, q
ID. in June and to All camp In
August. AS starter for theii
work in helping other people al
well as themselves, which is
well-known characteristic of Al
work, the members unanimously
agreed to donate five dollars from
the club treasury to the March o.
Dimes campaign.

able to explain why it was loaded
into a packed passenger train or
how it was touched off.

Queen Leaves Australia
After 57-Day Tour
BY the Associoted Press

PERTH, Australia, April L.
Queen Elizabeth II sailed from
Australia today after a 57-day
visit that won resounding cheers
from her Australian subjects.
The royal liner Gothic steamed
from Fremantle harbor, this
western city's port, as thousands
of onlcokers waved and shouted
good-by and other ships sounded
their whistles.
The next stop on the young
monarch's commonwealth tour
is the Cocos Islands, in the In
dian Ocean 800 miles southwest
Of Singapore. She is due there
April 5.
The Queen, standing on the
top deck with her husband, the
Duke of Edinburgh, looked as
happy and refreshed today as on
February 3, when the Gothic
brought her into Sydney. She
had travelled thousands of miles
across the broad nation and car
ried out $50 formal engagements.

To Join NATO: Some Joke

Moscow, Of course, knew how

But now Moscow is trying a
similar gag. It's stale, it plays on
the innocent hopes of the worlds

it's definitely not funny.
