serving quests. For those, ana
among them some cultured Jews,
who tell us that faith is virtue, in
science, in whatever else OF the
helpful and commendable pur-
suits of life they believe in is
enough, l earnestly commend a
deeper searching into the sources
of human virtue and the motives
of human conduct. If belief in
these things which they cherish
rise to the heights of spiritual
faith, it may perhaps attain the
quality of religion. It may lead
to a pure zeal for truth, right, and
kindness. There is something
of this in the recent graduation
address of the President of Harv-
ard University, when he called
upon the graduates to strengthen
the faith of those who man the
academic citadel" eff you be-
lieve," he said, that education
cannot be evaluated in purely
utilitarian terms; if you believe
that beauty and wisdom are still
to be in a study of the past; If
you believe t h a discoveries,
however impractical, have i'm
portance for civilization, then you
will wish to be with us, as we
stand on guard. You will join
hands with those individuals of
all ages who have had supreme
confidence in mans creative en-
ergies; you will rejoice that
through our universities this gen.
GRAFTON may bring undreamed of
treasures to sustain the future as
we in our time have gained
nourishment from the past"
It is noble and stimulating
statement, this appeal of the secu-
lar educator. 1t has the solemnity
of the prophets warning and the
tone of a psalm gratitude for the
spiritual treasures of the past.
Not long ago one of our political
visitors went to some length to
show that also at the basis of
democracy there must be faith.
He referred to faith in the dignity
of human beings and their prim-
airy human rights, as we'll as to
faith in the validity of the accept
ed principles of right and wrong.
Personally, also, we need the
encouragement of our faith not
merely that we can survive, but
survive to some purpose in dig
nifty. self-respect, and usefulness.
Il shall not die but live and de-
clare the deeds of the Lord"
Earnestly as we stand on guard
against the enemy from without,
untiringly, lovingly and sacrifice
ally as we shall extend help and
comfort to the wretched victims
of mans inhumanity, we shall
not, if we are wise, neglect the

Mr.. Meek had a lot of clubs
and a lot of potential entries,
so he ignored Mr.. Dale's open
ing club bid and led the queen
of that suit. It was permitted
to win and Mr.. Meek followed
with the jack of clubs. Mr..
Dale won in his own hand with
the king.
With only one entry to dummy,
there was just one way to play
the diamond suit-lead the
queen and overtake with the
king. The king held the trick
and Mr.. Dale paused to consider
his next play.
If one opponent had started
with the doubleton ace of dia-
monds: the winning play was to
lead a low diamond at this point.
However. the lead Of the jack
of diamonds would win If the
suit broke 3-3 or If one opponent
held the nine doubleton. So OBJ
viouSly this second alternative
offered the better chance.
Mr.. Dale led the jack of dia-
monds, discarding a small heart
from his hand. Mr.. Meek ducked
again, trying to make it as hard
as he could. But it was dia-
monds or nothing and Mr.. Dale
crossed his fingers and led a
third round of the suit. When
the ace and the nine both fell
the contract was assured.
In desperation Mr.. Meek re-
turned the queen of spades. Mr..
Dale let this hold but won the
spade continuation with the ace.
He entered dummy with the ace
Of clubs and ran the rest Of the
diamonds. With eight tricks in
the bag he gave no thought to
trying the heart finesse for an
extra trick. He cashed the ace
Of hearts to score the shaky
game.

THIS WEEK
In
WASHINGTON

Admiral Lewis S. Strauss,
chairman Of the Atomic Energy
Commission, predicts that within
the near future the application
of atomic energy practices in the
agricultural field will save to
the nation, the annual estimated
loss of $l3 billion dollars in crop
losses from various causes, or
equal in value the $14 billions
the taxpayers have invested in
the entire atomic energy pro-
gram.
Speaking recently before the
Executives Club of Illinois at
Chicago, Admiral Strauss point
ed to the many advances which
already have been made through
research by the use of radio
isotopes and irradiation in ami
NAL husbandry, particularly in
the dairy field in the feeding of
animals; in the growth of better
wool on sheep and in the deve-
lopment of plant mutations.
In the latter field the Acc
laboratories and those of COOP
Grating universities and agricul-
tural experiment stations have
already developed new strains of
oats which are rust resistant: one
lrradlation of tomato seedlings
has produced at least one gen
Grafton of wilt resistant plants.
Tremendous strides have been
made in the know-how on appli-
cation of fertilizers and in the
production of insecticides for in
sect control. In another agricul-
tural field, the growing of to-
bacco, research has produced
radioactive cigarette tobacco and
tobacco compounds. These are
employed as tracer tools in medi-
cal studies to increase our know
ledge of the effect of tobacco on
the human organisms. So far,
however, no final results have
been obtained in this present
day controversy over the effects
of tobacco on the human body.
Radiation is also playing a
prominent part in field which
directly affects agriculture-the
sterilization and pasturization of
processed foods such as meats
and vegetables. 1t has been well
established that mild doses of
cold irradiation on meat will in
crease its shelf-life from about
3 to Il days. However so far
there has been some difficulty in

SAVE US FROM
. OUR FRIENDS

1t is not always our avowed
enemies who destroy us. Know
ing or discovering that they are
enemies, We can take necessary
steps to guard and protect our
selves against them. We can even
take the offensive, which is
often the best defense.
But not SO with our friends. In
our relations with them we are
disarred. Expecting no evil and
having even strong assurances of
good intent, we expose our
weaknesses, we accept the assur-
anceS given us and go blithe-
fully ahead on what we believe
is a sound and profitable course
of action.
Those friends can be utterly
sincere and true in their regard
for us, which can actually multi

in consequence of our trust in

The best of motives cannot
alter the consequences of mis-
taken counsel and guidance.
