A WORD
TO THE WISE
BY MRS. FRANK COLBY


Rochester: Will you please dis
tinguish between the terms OPP
tometrist, optician, and oculist?
I never know when to use which.
Mrs. RIG.
Answer: There are great
many people who do not know
the difference; but they should
be carefully distinguished, thus:
Cd An optometriSt examines
the eyes bye means of instru-
|ments, appliances, and charts,
for the purpose of prescribing
glasses. He does not treat the
|eyes, prescribe any medicine, or
perform any surgery.
(2) An oculist is a physician
who specializes in the study and
treatment of defects and diseases
of the eye.
CD An optician is not an "eye
doctor; he makes or deals in
optical glasses and instruments.
How to use the words: The
optometrist examined my eyes
and found them diseased; on his
advice consulted an oculist,
who treated my eyes and pre-
scribed glasses. which we're made
by an optician.
Colorado Springs: Please tell
us the correct way to pronounce
pail mall. Mrs. I. K.
Answer: The rhyme with tall
half has no sanction. Either
pell NELL or, less frequently
heard: pal NAL.
| Originally pail mall was a
game common in Europe. It
was played with a mallet and a
ball. Pail Mall, a street in Lon
don, II on the site of pail mall
alley.
Curiously enough, the words
pell nell, meaning "helter-
skelter," derives, not from the
English pail mall, but from the
French pele-mele, meaning CON
fusion" Pell nell is pronounced
exactly as it is spelled. The
accent is on the NELL"

BY EASLEY BLACKWOOD

Mr.. Abel is guilty of this at
times. He goes into a long huddle
about how to play a certain suit.
Finally he thinks himself into
q coma, which eliminates the
possibility of hitting on another
plan which might be better than
the first, or at least give him one
extra chance for his contract.
Take today's deal, for example.
Mrs. Keen led the trey of spades,
the four went on from dummy.
Mr.. Dale false-carded with the
queen and Mr.. Abel won with
the king.
Immediately Mr.. Abel fell in
love with the spade suit. He led
to the queen of hearts, back to
the ace of hearts, then played
the nine of spades and went up
with dummy's ace. He pulled the
ten of spades from the board
and saw the six spot drop on his
right.
It appeared that the thing to
do here was to drop a club from
the closed hand, playing Mr..
Dale for the jack of spades. If
this worked. another spade lead,
ruffed by Mr.. Abel, would clear
the suit. Dummy could be en-
tered with a club and another
club discarded on dummy's fifth
spade. Thus the losers could be
held to one diamond trick.
But Mr.. Abel knows that Mrs.
Keen is a tricky opening leader.
In spite of the fall of the cards
In the spade suit, she might have
led from the jack. He lost his
nerve and ruffed the ten of
spades. Now he led a club and
f1nessed dummy's nine. This play
would have made the contract
If Mrs. Keen had held both queen
and jack of clubs--a rather un-
likely possibility.
When Mr.. Dale won with the
Jack of clubs he laid down the
ace of diamonds to put the hand
down one.
Mr.. Abel overlooked an obvious
play which he probably would
have seen if he hadn't concen-
trated all of his thinking on the
spade situation. At trick four he
should have led a diamond from
dummy. If the ace were on his
right, his king would have been
set up for a club discard from
dummy. And, if the ace of dia-
monds were wrong, the spade
and club plays would still have
been available.

DORIS ELEEsoN
AdI0i Stevenson Comes of AGE

Maybe they won't believe
him; maybe he will step over
a line they have drawn in their
own minds. The old Stevenson
would have worried about this.
The new one is a professional
who rides his issue hard and
never looks back.
Many reporters cannot de-
eide how he is going over. Re-
porters always argue about
crowds, their size. intensity
and complexion. Police esti-
mates. incidentally, are nearly
worthless.
Stevenson's crowds vary
widely. He has had excellent
ones and many medium to
poor ones. If crowds are the
answer. he win not win No
vember 6.
A President always draws
crowds. President Eisenhower's
nave been good, and in Des
Molnes. Pittsburgh and Ken
lucky they were excellent.
He is, Of course, something
of a novelty in most parts OF
the country. Since his heart
attack September "a. 1855, he
has been hospitalized for long
periods. In previous years he
took long vacations; in Colo
RADIO alone he spent 43 days in
SO and So days in "a. And he
had been there six weeks be-
fore the heart attack.
Only the top candidates
draw crowds at all. Despite
the attention called to the
vice presidency this year,
neither Richard M. Nixon nor
Senator Estes Kefauver are
drawing brushes. Lesser lights
must settle for small groups of
party faithful. The old rally
is obsolescent, hardly worth
holding unless backed by TV.

Stevenson S H-Bomb Issue

scientists and others who have
not had access to all the in
formation available to the
Atomic Energy Commission
have been quoted a lot in the
press. They have been in
sisting that the "fallout" will
hurt future generations. Many
people are accepting such reck-
less statements as valid.
There have been many H
bomb tests by both Russia and
the United States. but so far
no nation anywhere can point
to real damage from "fallout. "
Individual cases Of injury are
few, and the scientists are in
dispute about what they mean.
Only last week there was
released in Japan an impor-
tant on-the-spot study by
doctors who have examined
children, born between 1916
and 1858, one or both of whose
parents were atomic bombed
at Hiroshima or Nagasaki. The
radiation effects were not from
a test at an isolated spot but
from actual bomb drops on q
big city. The experts were
able to find in these children
little or no observable differ
ence from a child born to UNI
exposed parents"
1t is easy enough to scare
people about the ''fallout" and
spread lies about the alleged
damage done by our own tests,
but there is no proof that per-
sons outside the testing area
have been injured.
The Republicans have a
ready answer for the SteveY-
son argument. They say that
to stop Americas testing while
waiting for the Communists to
do likewise, as Stevenson pro-
posed last April. is an example
Of the kind Of Judgment which
the American people are asked
to accept if the Democratic
nominee should be elected to
the presidency.
The H-bomb tests regret
tably will be an issue-but in
the long run it may be the
issue that insureS the defeat Of
Adlai Stevenson. It's the wrong
issue at the wrong time and in
the wrong place-certainly it
doesn't belong on the political
stump.

President Taps Key,
Storts Big Project

President Eisenhower pressed
ia gold telegraph key in the
White House yesterday after
noon, setting of simultaneous
explosions in Arizona and Utah
to mark the start Of work on the
81 billion Colorado River stor-
age project.
The President described the
project as one to conserve water
resources and provide hydro
electric power in a way that is q
good example" of his adminis-
tration's partnership policy for
developing such resources.
The explosions started pre-
liminary work on Grand Canyon
Dam, $500 million project that
will take about eight years to
complete, and the $57 million
Flaming Gorge Dam that will
take about seven years to build.
The Interior Department esti-
mates the whole project will be

Tito's Vaccinations Cited Against
Decision for More Aid to BeIqr0de

OF all the members Of the
United Nations Security Coun-
Gil, Yugoslavia alone ranged
herself with the USSR in
voting against the l8-nation
London proposals for interna-
tional control of Suez.
A Chinese Communist mill
tary mission headed by a lieu
tenant general has been re-
ceived by Marshal Tito and
has obtained permission to
inspect Yugoslav military in
stallations from which Ameri-
can officers are still barred.
These are on-the-record
facts which have occurred in
the last few days. Yet they are
not considered as a deterrent
to the decision reached after
serious studies and thinking"
by the White House and State
Department to resume eco
nomic and small, routine"
military aid to Yugoslavia.
Official quarters stick to the
theory that unless Marshal
Tito joins Russia or Commu-
mist China in an overt act
against the United States, our
policy of keeping the wheels
of the International Co-opera-
ton Administration running
smoothly in Yugoslavia must
be maintained. The Yuposlav
peoples it is stated, are in
great need of our surplus
wheat and other agricultural
products. Hence, denying them
such support would mean that
they will have to ask assistance
from the USSR and her satel-
lites and we might lose Yugo-
slavia's present neutrality.
The fact that the Belgrade
delegate at the U. N. joined
the Russian in turning down a
proposition which mi1ht have
helped solve the Suez Canal
crisis is not regarded by our
policy makers as an instance
of Yugoslavia departing from
her so-called friendly neutral
ity stand.
Neither is it considered Inn
portant that in the last three
months Belgrade has been the
center Of highly important
diplomatic activities involving
countries behind the Iron Cur
tain and two bitter opponents
of the Western allisnce-
Greece and Egypt-which are
avowed enemies of Britain and
France.
Our representatives in Yugo-
slavia and Greece have been
kept officially in the dark as
to the meaning Of the pro-
longed visits of Marshal Tito
to the King of Greece at Corfu
last July and the Kings re-
turn visit to Belgrade. But
what is more important. our
embassy in Belgrade has been
given only the most meager
information regarding the
seven days of consultation at
Yalta between Tito and the top
civilian and military Soviet
hierarchy, which included the
Soviet chief of staff and Min
lister Of Defense zhukov.
In the absence of more
positive official information,
the story that the Politburo
had asked the Yugoslav
dictator's intervention in some
vague domestic brawls is being
accepted. The unofficial YER
sion that these exchanges of
top level visits and consulta-
tons mean the creation in the

Democrat, Citing Snub by Stevenson,
Points Up Civil Rights Issue in Drive

In the final weeks Of every
presidential campaign we usu-
ally see a few switches of
influential figures from one
party to another.
Often such q transfer Of
loyalty dramatizes a particular
issue. In the current case it
is civil rights. This is the
switch Of Representative Adam
Clayton Powell. New York
Negro Democratic leader, to
President Eisenhower from
Adlai Stevenson whom he sup
ported four years ago. 1t was
on the White House steps,
after a visit with the Presi-
dent, that he made his an
nouncement. He not only
finds Adlai Stevenson wanting,
but said he was snubbed by
the Democratic candidate, first
In his efforts TO confer with
him, second when he was not
invited TO the recent Steven
son street rally In Harlem.
Republicans are elated, and
making the most Of this new
recruit. They are hopeful Of
results from the campaign the
New York Congressman prom
ised among Negroes In a dozen
big cities to try to swing as
many as possible TO President
Eisenhower. All polls taken
thus far in Harlem. Chicago
and other big centers Of Negro
population indicate fewer de-
fections among Negroes from
the Democratic Party than
Republican managers had ex-
pected.
Among the rank and file Of
Negroes the tendency Is noted
to remain with the Democratic
Party into which so many
Negroes moved during the de-
preston years when they we're
benefciaries Of New Deal
economic and relief measures.

near future of a solid alliance
extending from Peiping
through Moscow to Cairo and
Belgrade is being discounted
not only because it is unofficial
but also unpleasant.
When responsible officials IN
the administration are asked
whether they can give any
plausible explanation for the
visit Of the Peiping military
mission to Yugoslavia and the
presence of a similar Yugoslav
mission in Communist China,
they answer that this is zone
Of those Communist things"
to which we have not become
accustomed.
They are meaningless, it is
said, since Tito has assured
our ambassador in Belgrade,
James Riddleberger, that he is
determined to remain an in
dependent Communist and at
a given time provide the "es-
sential bridge" to link the
Communist with the free
world. And this assurance

DAVID LAWRENCE
Candidate Seen Raising Questions
On Whether He Would Use Weapon

What's back of Adlai Steven
sons insistence that the H
bomb tests must become a
campaign issue? For If the
tests are so important, then
the possible use of the bomb
becomes important also. In
fact, the Secretary Of Defense,
Charles E. Wilson, said to a
television audience on the
Meet the Press program on
Sunday:
1.-THE real thing is not the
testing of the bombs-it's the
possible use of them that has
the world frightened"
Only one mantle Presi-
dent--has the power to order
the H-bomb to be used. If
Adlai Stevenson becomes Pres
ident, will ne order the super
bomb to be used, or will he
refrain from doing so? That's
the basic question which the
American people now will be
asking.
Would Stevenson wait be-
fore making a decision, and
how long would he wait?
Would he compel the United
States Air Force to wait till
enemy planes had bombarded
and destroyed New York or
Detroit, and then order mas
sive retaliation? Wouldn't
that be too late to save Amer
lea from dreadful casualties?
There are intercepting de-
vices and guided missiles which
are being tested and developed
in experiments which could
result in decorating or rem
dering harmless enemy bombs
while on their way to the
United States. But such ex-
periments now in process of
development require an init
mate knowledge Of the H
bomb in actual use. Hence,
tests at faraway points-where
all the important experiment.
ing has been done--are of
paramount Importance. Would
Stevenson stop such tests, too?
How can he promise the Amer
lean people that he will stop
all tests with the H-bomb
