US. Nothing is superior TO the
best u. S. aircraft in comparable
categories'.
Admiral Ramsey points out in
some detail how Government con-
tracts are won and executed under
our system of spirited competi-
ton" that 9is good both for the in
dustry and for the taxpayer" and
how it has prepared the industry
to meet the fantastic challenges of
the fairly immediate future. Plane
builders, he says, have now out
distanced the information avail
able in the text books" and are
conducting their own search for the
basic knowledge required for
planes and engines that will en-
able men to fly four and five times
the speed of sound"
''Today's facts have, in truth, be-
come more startling than yester-
days fiction. They are over
shadowed only by tomorrow's
needs. And our best assurance Of
meeting those needs is the tradi-
tional American competitive sys-
tem-our greatest single source
of strength and progress, yester-
day, today and tomorrow

Egypt-Land OF Mystery
In the very first day of their
police action" to protect the Suez
Canal, the British succeeded in bloc
king this vital waterway COM
pletely. Just what the French ac-
complished is not so clear.
And since Washington was
caught fiat-footed by this astound-
ingly reckless adventure of our
bosom allies, an invasion that re-
presents weeks of planning, we
can't help wondering about our
colossal and super-secret Central
Intelligence Agency. Did none OF
our operatives hear, or see or
smell anything? Or did Brother
John Foster refuse to believe what
Brother Allan's boys told him? We
don't suppose. of course, that an
ambassador should stick his nose
into such matters.
In any case, there's something
almost sublime about the conf
dence of England's Sir Anthony
and Frances NJ Guy Mollet that
we will rescue their countries once
more-if need be.

Formal Names S
Are Popular
In Teen Set
AP Newsfeatures

Formal names are coming back
quicker than you can say Rump-
lestilslEin.
Diminutives are for the biIds,
say chic young moderns. And girls
wearing boys names these days
Just aren't on the beam says a girl
who has just assumed her chris
tening name of Jacqueline, and
dropped her nickname Jackie" for
good. She says:
I'VE had variety of boys names
in our crowd until recently. There
was girl named Bill, another call
ed jeff and one named Charlie. But
they've all bought new stationery.
Now they're Wilhelmena, Mary,
Kathleen.
Although the formal name is a
trend even with boys these days.
this particular group was brought
back to collective femininity by a
young man named Bill who was
dating the Bill of the girl group.
Lady Bill hadn't heard from just
plain male Bill for couple OF
weeks, and wondered what had
happened when along came old
debbil rumor: Bill was disgusted
with the idea of dating girl who
had a boys name, especially his.
He said, the grapevine told:
Imagine marrying girl with
your same first name. It would
be confusing on the birth certifi-
Gates of your children, TO say Moth
ing of the post Office, Dill collectors.
and even new friends. I'm against
the whole idea"
other unusual names that are
being shelved include: Coco, Candy,
Honey and Sherry. These girls are
likely to choose Hortense, Cynthia,
Anastasio, Deborah or Pamela.
Names frequently reflect the eras
of their origin. The current one
seems to reflect titles of historic
novels, television characters and
maybe even short story heroines
that run in cycles.
Back in the gay nineties, the era
of the stage door Johnny, giris
were Rose" Daisy" Blossom"
and even "Peony." More scintil-
lating showgirl types reflected the
sugar daddy era with names such
as Jewel, Opal. Pearl Ruby, Sap
phire. Then there were the roman
| ticists who tied up with the tinpan
alley era when April, May and
June were likely to precede the
names on a mailbox.
The most noticeable name switch
! IN formality is Elizabeth. II used
| to be that an Elizabeth felt lucky
because she could choose from a
wide selection of nicknames one
that fitted h. personality when she
/ grew up.
AS a tiny tot she'd be Lillibeth
perhaps. Witty, fun-to-be with
types became Betty. Clinging vines
were tabled Betsy or Beth. Liz
| was the gay, party type. Elizabeth
was only used for the Sunday-go-
to- meeting prim types.
But not so any more. Credit the
| Queen of England, Elizabeth Tay-
| Ior or the girl down the road. But
| today the trend is to wear Elizabeth
if that's your name, and it's pop
ular one.
/ Bows names - Peter, William
| George, Charles, Joseph, Edward
| Mark, Luke and Francis-are TO be
heard on any sand LOT these day
One parent says he named his boS
EMark because ''it'll be difficult te
find a diminutive for it, besides
the fact he likes the name.

FAT OF COMPLACENCY

Again and again the founding fathers of
this republic are invoked and the Constitu-
tion is invoked and lauded. But, too often,
great numbers of people take credit for the
Constitution, pay homage to the respected
dead, and let it go at that. There would be
no Constitution if James Madison, Benjamin
Franklin, John Jay, John Adams and their
great colleagues had been bound by attitudes
creeping into too many OF the minds of their
present day heirs-that is, into our own
minds.
How many times do we hear that many
issues and subjects had better not be dis
cussed because these are "tOo controversial?"
How often are issues ignored or CLOSED over
on the air, in print and in public debate be-
cause they are "too CONTROVERSIAL There
are even people in this country who consider
the Bill of Rights, the foundation of our
proud liberty, too controversial.
Freedom is not merely our heritage. Free
dom is the political condition which permits
us to strive and to achieve all that we prize
and cherish the most in this life. But free
dom was not won and created by men who
feared controversy. 1t was out of controversy
that the Federalist Papers were produced; it
was out of controversy that we gained our
Constitution and our Bill of Rights.
In all cases of legitimate difference there
can be no resolution without controversy. To
ignore this is to live in a dangerous dream
world of cliches and platitudes Controversy
keeps the minds of free men awake. Cliches
and platitudes put the minds of free men into
a sOmnambulistic, or sleeplike, state. And
sOmnambuliStic minds are not free minds.
Freedom can be lost in other ways besides
through violence and the secret police terror
of tyrants. Freedom can be smothered in the
fat of complacency. And one evidence of
complacency is the sign: mo Controversy"

Pregnancy Test
Can Cut Costs
By STUART YOUNG D.V.M.


if you could take all the non-pregnant
cows out of your breeding herd in |
October?
We are always hearing of the various
ways of increasing the productivity of
the beef d-fertility-testing the
semen of bulls, progeny-testing and so
on. But one big dollars-and-cen fac
tor in the beef herd is the number of
cows that fail to become pregnant. The
average calf crop in our range beef
herds generally runs about 80 to IS
per cent Some dry cows probably lost
their calves in early pregnancy. But
we can assume that about 10 to Is per
cent of the COW herds fail to have
calves in any one year just because
they don't get pregnant.
These non-pregnant animals are car
ried right through the winter. feeding
on your hay and range, probably los
ing weight from their fall grass-fat con-
dition and producing no calf to show
for it all. Taking into account the hay
ments she gets through the long winter,
along with the condition she loses that
has to be put back before a summer
sale, and the space of range grazing
she occupies through all this time, is
it wild guess to say she costs you
$40 a season? Depending ON where
you're operating, this figure could be
little more or less.
Early Detection
Pregnancy testing is a way your
veterinarian can help you save lot
of this loss. As most of you will know,
the pregnancy Of a COW can be de-
tected by rectal examination It's
amazing just how early a well-expe-
rienced hand can identify a pregnancy
But in any case veterinarians have no
trouble detecting pregnancy by the
Goth day.
It's big job to examine several
hundred cows and this will cost some
money. In addition, facilities must
exist to handle the cows to get the
job done and your labor will be taken
up for day or two. Yet, wedding the
non-pregnant animals before the winter
feeding could be profitable business.
Along with many other animal health
topics, this subject will be discussed
more fully by DR.. Jack Catlin at the
Montana State College beef school tt
be held Dec. 10 in Bozeman.
