SWORDS THROUGH THE CENTURIES
IITlHE SWORD In America

az Nk1G 0WOItO Ia 1A11CAACsA,
IL 1OOO-1954," a fascinat-
ing exhibition at the Cor
coran Gallery of Art, to re-
main through December 10,
presents for the first time the
story of this most ancient Of
all hand weapons still in use
today, as it developed on this
continent. The show Is COM
posed Of nearly 400 swords,
paintings and graphic arts.
It begins with a sword of the
type brought to this conti-
nent when the Vikings ex-
plored it centuries before
Columbus, and includes
swords such as Columbus and
his followers carried and
swords which belonged to the
Spanish and French explorers.
OF greatest interest are the
swords once in the hands Of
countless Americans fighting
In all the wars in which our
country has been engaged
the Virginians' and Pilgrims
defense against Indians, the
Colonists' service for Britain
against the French, the Rev
olution, the wars with Tripoh,
with the British in 1912 and
Mexico in 1847, the War be-
tween the States, the War
with Spain, against Villa in
Mexico, the two World Wars,
and most recently, Korea.
In addition to all these
types Of swords, conjuring up
a panorama of brave men Of
many centuries, there are
swords carried by American
heroes of all periods whose
names are known to every
school boy: heroes whose ex-
ploits insured safety, gained
freedom, built up the secur-
ity Of our nation, increased
it's prestige, in each genera
ton.
Here is the English rapier
of Capt. Miles Standish, en-
gagged to defend the Pilgrims
of Plymouth against the In
dams. His only defeat was in
his courtship of Priscilla. The
doughty captain was a man
of small stature, and his
sword is six inches shorter
than the average blade of the
type.

Presley Neville OBannon,
first hero in the history OF
our Marine Corps, was the
first to plant the American
flag on foreign soil. His sword
is in the show.
The most daring action in

barrage.
Commodore Matthew Perry
is best known for opening
Japan to foreign trade a CEN
tury ago. He had an active
career long before that, and
carried his sword in the War
of 1924. also commanded
the American fleet In the
Mexican War. Another ex-
hibited sword of the latter
war was in the hand of Maj.
Samuel Ringgold when he
was mortally wounded by a
cannon ball.
The most important swords
of the War between tn e
States, which belonged to the
leaders of both sides, Gen.
U. s. Grant and Gen. Robert
E. Lee, are a tour de force in
the show.
Many an American has,
fought in several wars dur
ing his lifetime. Some who
served in the War with Spain
at the end of the last CEN
tury also fought on the Mexi-
can border in 1915 and in
World War I. Gen. George
Smith Patton, jr- dashing
military leader of World War
II, served under Gen. Persh-
ing against Villa and in
World War I. He participated
in designing the last Cavalry
saber used before the ar
mored tank. The model he
made is in the show, along
with his own saber.
It's climax is undoubtedly
the Crusader sword, pre-
sented to Gen. Dwight D.
Eisenhower by the Corpora
ton of London at the close
of World War II. 1t is a loan
from the President.

Cabbage Is q 7inne-E IGNORED Vegetable
BY Violet Faulkner

Did you know that we eat
more cabbage than any other
vegetable except potatoes? Rec
ords show that we have given
this humble vegetable next-t to-
top place for more than 30 years.
Cabbage, INDIGENOUS to Europe,
was one Of the early plant inn
migrants to the New World. Al
most three centuries later, SCI
entists discovered vitamins and
in due time learned that cab
bage was an important source
of one of these food elements
=. vitamin c.
The Romans and Greeks, with
out being aware Of its nutritive
value, believed this budget-priced
vegetable could cure almost any
thing. They used it as ''moderns
do the Turkish bath to pull their
world back together the morn
ing after the night before" Api-
cius. the epicure of ancient
Rome. ranked cabbage with the
tongues of flamingoes as a rare
dish.
Woys to Serve
Cooked or raw. cabbage takes
well to combinations with other
vegetables and fruits. AS q sat-
isfying main dish. there's the
ever-popular corned beef and
cabbage. scalloped cabbage with
apples, or a cheese sauce topped
with Drowned bread crumbs. It
fits into almost any menu, from
the tricky cabbage rolls with
their Hungarian ancestry to the
simple panned cabbage that
cooks in S to 10 minutes.
AS a side dish, cabbage slaw
has dozens of variations :.
combined with carrots, onions,
raisins, peanuts, apples or or
anges. it's winner on any menu.
Nutrition-wise, raw cabbage,
especially the new green cab
bage. Is almost. as good a source
of vitamin c as citrus fruit or
tomatoes. An average serving of
either cooked or raw cabbage
also contributes small amounts
of three important B vitamins
to the diet thiamine, niacin,
and riboflavin and some calcium
and iron. Green cabbage also
contains appreciable amounts of
vitamin A.
Very often it helps in knowing
how many servings you can get
from pound Of cabbage. Keep
these amounts in mind. they're
a good guide: / pound Of cab
bage will make seven to eight
half-cup servings of shredded
cabbage: four to five half-cup
servings of cooked cabbage.

Secretary Of the Treasury
Humphrey said yesterday this
country must keep present taxes
sufficiently high to "pay as we

extent
I'm this way" he told the
D. c. League Of Republican
Women, 1--WE will not pass more
and more debts on to already
overhurdened future genera
tions."
The Secretary reiterated his
stand against any blanket in
crease in income tax exemptions
which would throw us back into
substantial deficit financing. y
and he said the administration
would vigorously oppose such
action.
Mr.. Humphrey said that the

new look" in defense, plus
greater emphasis on the use ano
effectiveness of new weapons
has permitted substantial re-
auctions in the expenditures re-
quired IN the coming year.
However" he continued, ''the
costs are still high and about
70 cents out of every dollar OF
tax money collected from the
people still is being spent for
our collective security"
Mr.. Humphrey explained that
the January tax cuts are now
leaving with the taxpayers more
than SIS billion a year which
formerly was spent by the Gov
eminent.
Further changes in the tax
system being worked out between
the Treasury and the Ways and
Means Committee over recent
months will, when enacted, pro-
vide further reductions that will
amount to something more than
an additional SIS billion" he
added.
Thus" the Secretary said
more than $6.5 billion will be
released to the people by tax
cuts this year."
Mr.. Humphrey said the coun-
try Is now passing through q
period Of transition.
"As fewer men are at work
on weapons Of war, more men
must find employment on prod
ucts of peace" he declared. "As
war jobs decline. new peace jobs
must be created"
AS the changeover continues,
he added, some unemployment
cannot be avoided, and the
switch cannot in all cases be
completed Immediately.
But by careful management
and proper fiscal policies, 1t
should be done with the least
possible interference in the daily
lives of the great mass Of our
people," he said.

AS in any part of the world,
the children hold special place
at this time of year. This area
is known as the toy center of
the world, with Nurnberg's toy
industry only a few miles away
to the north and Obberamergau's S
world known wood carving
specialists to the south. In Nurn-
berg, throughout the month of
December, Christmas fairs are
held. These date back to the time
of the Crusades. Although the
most famous of these fairs is
held in Nurnberg, in front of
the magnificent Our Lady's
Church, smaller airs are held in
most cities and towns. The stalls
and booths are located in an
area of beauty as befits the
Christmas significance, as for
instance, in the very shadows
of a beautiful church.
The fair displays all sorts of
decorations for the holidays,
from gold-leaf angels for the

elaborate electrical tops or tiny
figurines of dried fruit. It's not
