monster, DEATH races on.
The atomic and hydrogen
bombs are developed to greater
and greater degrees of destruc-
tiveness, and defenses develop
ed reveal greater possibilities of
destruetiveness and more ter
rible bombs. Spies ferret out
what we have accomplished,
Russia builds further on that
knowledge, and we race for the
advantage. We hope we have the
lead and fail adequately to safe
guard ourselves in our immedi-
ate advantage. Russia threatens
to take the lead, and only thin
margin at the present prevents
Russia from wreaking her will
on us.
We are told that third of
our population could be destroy
ed in "a hours. Yet we are more
concerned in pulling down Nc
Carthy than in uniting against
the common enemy he processes
to fight. We would not think of
stopping Russia in her tracks
with an attack that would des-
troy her ability to destroy us.
We don't make wars on other
peoples. We wait until they
make war on us, even when we
have good reason to believe that
they are getting ready to des-
troy us.
Strange, isn't it? The farmer
pulls weeds before they destroy
his crops. He cultivates his rows
of corn, roofing out the vegeta-
ton in between. But in matters
of life and death for our nation,
we let the weeds grow tall and
strong, and when we feel them
suffocating us we start to do
something about it. So, with a
navy destroyed, an entire coast
open to attack, we start to fight,
at greater cost and loss than
need otherwise be necessary.
But that's the way it is, isn't
it? And this Writer is not pre-
pared to advocate an immediate
attack on Russia to destroy her
bombs and bomb factories. But,
we can fearlessly and honestly
recognize the threat and be
ready, AND WILLING, to draw
first the moment the enemy
shows signs of drawing at all.
That is the best defense against
a gun-toting gunman.
We can join with the rest of,
the world in burying hypocrisy
and in promoting the one phil
osophy which would stop men
from using the terrible weapons
for mutual destruction. We
could develop that command
over ourselves which would
make safe our command over
Nature and turn the use of our
knowledge and power to the
development rather than the
destruction Of man.
In the meantime, DEATH
races on! - DR.. Alfred p. Haake.

Seldom il ever before has the Situa-
ton on Capitol Hill been more muddled
than now. Consider. for example, the
state of affairs on foreign trade ex-
tension, a vital part Of President
Eisenhower's program.
The House has passed bill sponsored
by Representative Daniel Reed calling
for q minimum extension of one year
of the Reciprocal Trade Agreements
Act But the Senate has not acted and
for the second time in two years Con-
gress has failed to meet the deadllne
on this issue. Thus, if the trade agree
ments act is extended it must be done
retroactively.
Originally the President sought
three-year extension along with the
adoption of other trade proposals. But
confronted with strong opposition from
Representative Reed and other Re
publicans, Mr. Eisenhower abandoned
his program and expressed willingness
to accept another one-year extension.
At a time when leading Republicans
make it necessary to abandon EiSen-
hower's trade program, Senator Gore
of Tennessee, a Democrat, says he is
readying a bill to carry out the Presi-
dents original plan to expand foreign
trade. 0. T. Bowling.

Jared by Teddy after chase.
It was while tramping in the Adiron-
dacks that Roosevelt received a tele-
gram saying President McKinley's
condition was grave, and that the Vice
President should hurry to Buffalo.
Obeying the summons, he found Nc
Kinley dead and himself headed for the
White House.
Included in the presidential party
on one point-to-point walk near Wash
ington was JuSSerand, French Ambas-
sador and dean of the Diplomatic corps
Reaching the Potomac, all the men
undreSsed preparatory to swimming
across. Roosevelt noticed that JUS
serand had apparently forgotten to take
off his black kid gloves. "Mr. Ambassa-
dor, Mr.. Ambassador" exclaimed the
President, you haven't taken off your
gloves" "I think" said the Frenchman
struggling, II will leave them on: we
might meet ladies'"
It was suggested that President
Roosevelt invite the members of the
Army War College and the General
Staff to go with him on one of his
walks through Rock Creek Park. The
invitation was promptly given. The
walk was an affair which none present
ever forgot. Toward the END. Teddy
