The truth of that old Ameri-

again proved to the hilt last
night at Constitution Hall. To
no ones utter astonishment.
George packed them in despite
the threatening weather and the

To the public at large. Gersh-
win is the golden-haired boy Of
American music, our one rags
to-riches genius. No other COM
poser has so captivated the
national imagination. For al
though George has been dead
for some II years, he has never
ceased being a symbol of youth
to the generation that grew up
in the twenties, and our own
kids discover him for themselves.
Music critics and highbrows
have been taking potshots at his
reputation ever since he had one.
but George refuses to lie quietly
in his grave. His star still rises.

Churchill Accused
OF 1reachery 10
Allies by Pravda
Star STAFF Photo by Arnold Taylor
BY the Assoeiaied Press

MOSCOW, Sunday, Nov. 28.-
Pravda today made a blistering
attack on British Prime Minis
ter Churchill and accused him
of "treachery against his allies. "
The article was the second at
tack in the Communist Party
newspaper as a result of Church
ills speech last week disclosing
that he issued instructions near
the end of World War II to keep
surrendered Nazi arms handy for
reissue to German soldiers in
case the Soviet army continued
to advance across Western Eu-
rope.
Pravda published alongside the
article reprints of Soviet docu-
ments, including a Churchill let
ter to Stain asking for a Red
army offensive to relieve the
allies in the December 1914 "bat-
tie of the Bulge"
Pravda said the Soviet Union

mounting a massive offensive
which forced the Germans to
withdraw forces from the West
and transfer them to the East.
thus undermining their offen-
sive against the Anglo-Saxons."
The newspaper said Mr..
Churchill had repaid this serv-
ice by plotting to use German
soldiers against the Russians.
"It must not be forgotten" !"
said Pravda, that the U. S. S. R.
and England were allies at the
very time when Field Marshal
Montgomery, on Churchill's or
der, was collecting weapons. on
the field of battle-weapons
thrown away by German fascists
so as to once again arm the
Fascists and move against the
Soviet people.
"Scarecrow of Communism"

Churchill long had been recog-
nized here as a man who liked

passed shortly before Congress
adjourned in August.
The code is designed to apply
to "all residential housing" and
is intended to set up minimum
acceptable standards for habita-
tions" in the District.
In addition, it spells out re-
quirements for maintenance,
lighting, ventilation, heating,
utilities and density Of occupa-
ton of all buildings-including
private homes.
Licensed Businesses.
Previously, such regulations
affected only licensed businesses,
like hotels, apartments. boarding
houses and tenement houses.
Washington's attack on slum
conditions is being pressed on
several fronts. One front-that
of redevelopment-is under way
already in the Southwest quarter
of the city, where rundown areas
are being torn down block by
block. These will be rebuilt
under a master plan designed to
turn the neighborhoods into
pleasant, modern areas.
On another front, the District
recently got power to tear down
AS well as condemn and board
up-isolated buildings which are
judged unsafe for habitation or
"insanitary."
Adoption of the housing code,
however, would let the District
order any building-including
private homes repaired, mod
ernized or cleaned up to keep it
from turning into an eyesore or
a blight on the neighborhood.
Penalties Are Heavy.
Penalties are heavy. Violations

ments. He was told that the
presence of the 7th Fleet in the
Formosa strait gave him the
greatest possible assurance of
United States protection. Mr..
Dulles has repeatedly said that
a Chinese Communist attack on
Formosa would mean war with
the United States.
Chang wanted a two-way
commitment in writing, none
theless. His insistence appar-
emily became greater after the
United States suggested" in
October that he halt attacks on
Red Chinese targets since they
no longer seemed to be neces-
sary to the defense of Quemoy.
United States officials, mean
while, began to see the treaty
in a new light, particularly in
the course of prolonged talks
with the British government on
narrowing differences between
Washington and London over
relations with the two Chinas
The pact came to be regarded
as a possible first step in the
process of stabilizing the For
mosa area.
Bulwark to Chang.
Furthermore they. sawsit as a
way of strengthening Chang
defensively at the same time
that he would be dispensing
with offensive attacks against
the Reds on the mainland
United States officials thus hope
to minimize the chances OF
military action which could lead
to a great war.
One effect of this would be to
put squarely up to the Chinese
Reds the question of war or
peace in the region of Formosa,
Another and parallel effect
could be to establish a line be-
tween Red China and Formosa
on either side of which the Reds
and nationalists could live in
definitely in kind of coexist-
ence. That would only be pos
sible, however. so long as Chang
shelved his declared intentions
of returning to the mainland
and the Reds suspended their
announced determination to con-
quer FormoSa.

Reds Going Ahead
With Conference;
I Delegations Arrive
By the Associased Press


MOSCOW, Sunday. Nov. 28.-
The Soviet Union definitely is
going ahead with its European
security conference, even though
the West is not expected to ac-
cept invitations, Tass news
agency said today.
This was made clear in Tass
accounts reporting the arrival
in Moscow Saturday of the East
German and Polish delegations
for the conference opening here
Monday. i
(Reports received in London
showed that delegates from five
other Soviet bloc countries and
an observer from Red China
were en- route to Moscow. These
were from Czechoslovakia, Hun
gary, Romania, Bulgaria and
Albania. Including the Soviet
Union, nine countries will be
represented.)
Big Reject Bid.
Russia set Monday as the
opening date for the conference
in invitations to % European
countries and the United States,
but Britain, France and the
United States are expected to
deliver a note on that date re-
jecting the bid to the big three.
Tass today published a reply
from Austria stating the security
conference should be held only
with the Western big three in at
tendance, since they share in the
occupation of Austria, and sug-
gesting that the Russians post
pone the conference to allow
preliminary negotiations.
Finland accepted the Soviet
invitation, but on condition other
Western powers attended.
The position of the Western
powers is understood to be that
they will not undertake to nego-
tiate with Moscow on European
security until the Paris agree
ments for the rearmament of
West Germany have been rati-
fled.
Call Issued 2 Weeks Ago.
The Soviet invitation was is
sued only two weeks ago. Just a
week ago v. M. Molotov, Soviet
foreign minister, offered to post
pone the conference if ratifica-
ton of the Paris accords was
held up meanwhile-an offer
that rejected in a communique
after the Washington talks of
President Eisenhowe and
French Premier Pierre Mendes-
France.
Tass this morning announced
the Soviet delegation to the Mos
cow conference would be headed
by Mr.. Molotov and would in
clude deputy foreign ministers
Andrei Gromyko and Valerian
Zorin.
The Baltic republics inclusion
in the conference was believed
for the purpose of emphasizing
their position as border terri
tories.
Premiers Otto Grotewohl OF
East Germany and Josef Cyran-
kiewicz Of Poland, heading dele
cations which arrived today,
hailed the "peace-loving" Soviet
Union for calling the conference

To Be AssimiIoted

Marbles are filling, but they are
not food, because they can't be
digested. Bread is food because
it is absorbed into the system. In
your bones and blood. in your
nerves and skin and glands today
are the elements you have taken
in with the bread you have eaten.
Some of it is stored up in the
fat-cells which are the body's re-
serve bank. Some of it builds up
various tissues. Some of it is ex-
pended in energy of living. The
bread has ceased to exist, as
bread, it does you good only be-
cause it has been assimilated, it
has become a part of your muscle
and brain. So Christ intends that
he shall be assimilated by the
Christian It is true a Christian
cannot exist without Christ; but
we must think what that means.
Christ in a picture on the wall is
only a picture. Christ as defni-
llOll III q GdlCNlllSlll - OIl4y q QG1l-
milton. Christ as a misunderstood
phrase in a creed is still only a
dim and perhaps meaningless
name. Christ as a historical per-
son is figure in history, no more.
1t is only the assimilated Christ.
Christ taken into your system,
Christ a part of you, that is vital
in your days living. How does
this take place? First of all by
knowing HMM the Gospels, in
the New Testament, and then and
always as a living invisible Pres
ence, the inner Christ who takes
the wheel of your will. Bread has
to be eaten to be of use. Christ
must be willingly taken if he
lives within.

The Living Bread
Lesson for February :, 1854

CTRANGERS to the Christian
- religion are always somewhat
astonished at its central and most
solemn act Of worship. 1t is moth
ing else than taking a morsel of
bread and a sip Of wine. Such SIM
plicity is not to be expected. In
fact. some churches decorate the
simplicity with all manner of ritual
till the simple act at its center
is almost smothered out of sight.

To Be Shared

AS some one has said, "A crust
eaten alone is only a crust. A
crust shared may be a sacrament
of friendship" There is one fact
about the Living Bread which is
not true of ordinary bread A loaf
from the grocery will be just as
nourishing if you eat it alone as
if you eat it in company. A loaf
stolen is as nourishing as a loaf
honestly bought. 1t is not so with
Christ the Bread from Heaven.
The selfish life. the life that thinks
only about its own troubles, am
billions. dreams and hopes, is not
one in which Christ can live If
all you want him for is to get on
better with your own schemes, he
will do you no good. If you were
sitting in a restaurant enjoying a
good meal, and you looked out
through the window and saw in
the street, nose pressed against
the glass, a starVed-looking child,
would the meal taste as good to
you afterwards? And yet church
members will sit in their COM
Portable churches, listening to ser
mons about Jesus, standing up
and saying they believe in him,
singing about him, even taking the
bread of Communion, and all the
while soul-starved people are on
the outside How can we ever
truly have Christ in our lives if
we never try to share Him?
