buying clippers, mirrors, canteen
books for patients up there to
keep 'em smiling in beds of
white" This is our 3rd year of
making trips to the Miles City

successful and one of the cars
took a patient up who would
have had to ride the train from
Glendive.

For the Common Good

In his remarks to the annual con-
vention of the United States Chamber of
Commerce, President Eisenhower has used
simple but eloquent language to sum up
the chief argument in favor of another
three-year renewal of the Nations long
standing reciprocal trade program. The
argument, an unanSwerable one, is this:
That the program is indispensable to our
Governments persistent and all-important
effort to build bridge, a permanent
bridge, to connect a growing, widely
shared prosperity at home and abroad with
international peace"
BY its very nature, of course, this
program is and must continue to be two
way propoSition-a give take process
in which our country must grant conces-
sions to the other participating countries
in exchange for the concessions they grant
to us. Some of these concessions, it is
true, may require readjustments that can
be bit painful in isolated instances, but
our economy can readily afford to make
them. In fact, it. cannot afford not to
make them. For they constitute an essen
tial and profitable investment not only in
terms of promoting peace but also in terms
of mutual economic enrichment for our
selves as well as for our friends and allies
Certainly, as the President has said, "as
long as we cooperate together for the
common good, we cannot lose; we simply
cannot lose"
That is why renewal of the reciprocal
trade program-already approved by the
House-is expected to sail through the
Senate later this week. The version now
under debate there still is opposed by
advocates of superhigh protectionism, but
these unrealtstic extremists are incapable
of defeating it. After all, the bill has been
amended in way that offers every indus
try fair and equitable insurance against
being seriously injured by unlimited i'm
ports. Chairman Byrd of the Finance
Committee has made that point very clear,
and so has Senator Millikin, whose views
on the subject have always tended to
support American enterprise fearful of
foreign competition. In short, there is no
solid ground for further resistance on that
score. On the contrary, the whole project
is so we'll designed to serve the cause of
peace and prosperity that the Senate's
Endorsement of it should be overwhelming.

A new synthetic "radium,"
created by the transmutation
of lead into bismuth In an
atomic pile. has been an
nounced by Dutch atomic
energy workers.
It is bismuth 206, which has
all the ue-destroying prop
critics Of radium without the
damaging high energy rays.
and it can be prepared in the
form of needles which can be
inserted in neoplastic tissue.
The valuable feature of this
new isotope. according to the
Dutch workers who reported to
a kaleidoscope conference in
London, is that it has a half
life of only 6.4 days. That is,
half Of any amount originally
present will have disintegrated
into something completely in
ert in that time.
This gives it a superiority
also to cobalt so, the artificial
"radium" produced in the
United States. which has a
half life of more than five
years. During this whole pc
riod it has a killing effect both
on cancerous and normal It's
sues, although considerably
more on the former than the
latter. There would be hardly
a trace of the new bismuth
present in a month.

ference, by bombardment of

ers have described the produc-
ton Of a new form of radio
active cobalt which has a half
life of only 72 days. compared
to the five years of cobalt so.
This is cobalt So which has
only a radiation of hard

risk of radiation poisoning to
the individual on whom 1t is
used.

Why Grosbeoks Leave Home

A black-headed grosbeak turned up in
New York the other day and created quite
a stir in the pathological world. Mem
bers of the species to which this adven-
Juresome bird belongs have seldom been
sighted north of Alabama or east of Iowa.
But to one who realizes that this is spring,
the time when the workaday routine be-
gins to pail, the grosbeak's straying comes
as no surprise.
1t may be that he simply lost his way
while out for look at natures wonders,
going over hill after hill to see what lay
beyond. But the suggestion is respect
fully made to the ornithologists that the
cause may have deeper roots.
Perhaps the grosbeak went af1eld while
seeking a new nest. Is 1t not natural, in
spring. to stray beyond ones capabilities
when looking for new living quarters?
Maybe he foresaw too many mouths to
feed, come summer, with every other gros-
beak in the community vying for the avail
able food. 1t is more than natural, at such
times, to seek greener pastures for the
family'S sake.
Or it may be that his mate was forever
tidying up around the nest, sweeping out
stray feathers, rearranging the twigs Is
it not natural when ones mate begins
to hint about window washing or floor
sanding in the spring, to dream of far-off
Majorca or the nearby golf course? Or
perhaps the Illustrations Of living in
Stepped-up world sent him in search Of an
island. Is 1t not natural, in spring, to fol-
low the fieecy clouds with equally fufflike

as life. and especially If there
is a sentimental tie. So we
see staid businessmen, as they
are sometimes called, ranging
the family on the lawn, in
order to paint a sort of pic
ture with film and light, act
ing on one another.
Animal picture-taking re-
quires a steady hand and,
above all, plenty of patience.
Sometimes the good animal
pictures are matters of good
fortune. but mostly they come
about as the result of someone
with the patience of Job, the
old master.
We don't know how it is with
a sheep, Templeton Jones
friend, but with the dog and
the cat. the favorite house,
hold four-legged animals, the
first requisite is the patient
mind that is willing to wait to
get a good picture.
Primary among the faults
OF the amateur photographer
is impatience, which makes
him want to snap a picture
and get it over with. Good
animal photos are not taken
that way. They come as the
result of being willing to with
hold the clicking finger. The
f1rSt-rate picture may not take
any prize. but it will show
plenty Of the special ability to
take ones time, to refuse to
be hurried, to know that the
picture. in the finder is not
good enough.
Every good animal photo
shows some of these good
traits, and it need not be a
prize winner. let us state
again: this day, among its
many obsessions, has a pet
one. that a prize winner is
something unique, when as a
matter of plain everyday fact,
the prize winner may not be
a hairs breadth better than
the run-of-the-mill things. The
glory of the everyday picture
lies in a general goodness that
draws in sheep, dogs. children,
cats and guinea pigs, maybe,
to make a good picture.
