of those who hire, Well take

Unfortunately. as is often
the case when adults err, the
heaviest blows have fallen on
the children. Schools don't
deal with nonvital services to
the students. They seek to
develop their minds and bodies.
What an awesome RESPONSE
bility is placed upon the teach
err! Entrusted with the nur-
ture of hundreds of human
minds, he has to know what he
is doing. He has to be we'll
trained and he has to be able
to anticipate consequences Of
his own actions. When we
need brain surgery, we demand
the best surgeon available and
we disregard the cost. When
Montgomery County parents
place their children in the
hands of the schools, they want
the best teachers available,
but the council has placed
them at the bottom of the
local competitive market.
The children have even been
denied elbow room. How can
they be educated adequately
when a curtailment of school
construction will force them to
sit in crowded classroomS or
perhaps endure double ses-
Sions?
The weight Of the blows to
our country is something we'll
never know. However, we do
know that Montgomery Coun-
ty, by its high percentage OF
intelligent students, its fine
home backgrounds and the COL
lege opportunities enjoyed by
its youth. is likely TO furnish
many of tomorrow's leaders.
If these leaders. through in
adequate schooling, cannot
discharge their responsibilities.
the Nation will be hurt. We
know too that any county is
in danger Of Communist ac-
Invites; we know that those
who would subvert US attack
the mind, and we know that
If good schools develop our
children's minds properly, they
will be invulnerable to Com
munist attack. Ken ScOlIon.

received with impressive ceremony. But
it would be well to note that the Shahss
response to greetings emphasized that
there can be good relations between the
two countries when relations are based
on mutual respect" Moscow long ago
should have learned to respect the deter
mination of Iran to choose it's own course,
and should have realized that Iran will
not pursue policy of subservience to
neighbor whose sinister objective has
been so clearly and often recorded.

Political Gyrotions

Majority Leader Johnson
says patriotic Americans,
regardless Of party" will be
"revolted" by Defense Secre-
tary Wilson's use Of the term
"phony" to describe Demo-
cratic demands for an extra
81 billion in Air Force funds.
Surely. Senator johnson
must believe that patriotic
Americans" have been wearing
ear muffs and binders. For
We have seen and heard far
worse than the good, solid,
American term "phony" used
to describe some of the politi-
cal gyrations which have filled
this election-year air.
A situation, however, which
is extremely revolving" to
patriotic Americans of both
parties was brought out by
Republican Senator Duff of
Pennsylvania. Senator Duff
said he was sick and tired of
all this talk about being out
stripped by the Soviets." He
added. the public is getting a
distorted and magnified pic
ture of Russian strength, and
that We are not being told
about all the fabulous and
wonderful things being ac-
complished in this country.
Surely, to patriotic Ameri-
cans Of both parties. there is
something "sickening' and
revolving about a situation
in which our leaders in all
fields constantly compare our
youth. our schools, our mill
tary strength, our scientific
know how--our most cherished
American traditions with
those Of the Soviets. And then
in the same breath they tell
us that Communists are brutal,
immoral, goddess. unprincipled.
All too often the "compari-
sons" show us as behind.
Either way. this gives COM
munism the most terrific build
UP in history.

The Soviet government now
is making its greatest effort to
master the Arctic.
The program is similar in
its detectives to those Of the
United States and Canada. but
more intensive and more regi-
mented. 1t is marked by the
great expansions of an organ
ization with a truly jaw
cracking name set up more
than 20 years ago-the CLAW
noye Upravlen1ye Severnogo
MorSkogo Putt, or Northern
Sea Route Administration.
This organization now is
operating more than 100 OBJ
serving stations north Of the
Arctic Circle, a fleet of 10 ice
breakers, a polar aviation unit,
and several training schools
for Arctic technicians. The ex-
tent of the program is revealed
by statements of members of
the Soviet Academy of Sci
ences, cited by DR.. Louis o.
Guam. head of the geography
branch of the Office of Naval
Research.
Soviet to Cooperate
Arctic investigations will
form an important part of the
program for the forthcoming
Internal ional Geophysical
Year. The Russians, DR.. Guam
points out. have agreed to CO.
operate fully with the interna-
tional program, with the prob
able result that knowledge Of
the Arctic basin will increase
many fold.
An important part Of the
Russian program is being taken
by two stations drifting with
the ice, both near the North
Pole. In addition, they are
sending out air expeditions to
be closely co-ordinated with
the drift stations. One will
land near the pole. Another
will work along the outer edges
of the continental shelf on the
northern Chuckchi Sea.
There will be regular flights
by one or more flying labora-
tories" over the area of the ex-
petitions to take weather and
ice observations. These lab
oratories apparently are we'll
equipped reconnaissance planes
which make nonstop trips to
the North Pole from Siberian
coastal stations. One major
object of the expedition that
will ground at the pole is to
determine the precise course

Cats are animals we have
with us, late and soon, de-
vouring our food, adding a
great deal to our lives.
1t is impossible to watch
any creature without reallz-
ing how much it is like us,
after all.
Take the reformation of
Stubbs, the bang tailed tiger
cat.
He lost, evidently in an acct
dent in kittenhood, three
fourths Of his tail.
Whether this soured his
disposition there is no way
Of knowing now.
The only thing evident was
his two-fold disposition. ,
Human beings have many
fold dispositions.
Cats, sometimes, just one
disposition
Stubs had two.
In the first he wanted
house.
In the second he disliked
other cats.
The urge for a house to call
his own took precedence.
When he first showed up he
stood under the dining room
windows and meowed to get in.
Since it was high summer
this seemed odd, since it was
better outdoors.
There already were five cats
indoors, and these seemed
enough. At times, indeed, more
than enough, even for friends
Of the feline world.
1t seemed that Stubs had
a sort Of obsession.
He loved to sun battle with
the family, but he always
wanted in.
Never once was his request
granted. because of his second
disposition.
This amounted to nothing
more than attack, but it was
the way he did it.
He never. looked directly at
his victim, in fact paid on at
tention until the other was
looking the other way,
Then-plopl
Stubs would jump him, roll
him over and over and pull
out great mouthfuls of fur.
In extenuation he might
have been said to be lenient,
because he never really bit.
But the victim was dopey
for three or four days, as if in
shock.

chestras are there in the
United States? w. McF.
A. The total was recently
given as Sos, which means that
the United States has more
symphony orchestras than all
other countries combined. Dur
ing 1855, professional music
performances boosted an at
tendance of 35 million per-
sons, and music lovers in 2,l00
communities spent $50 million.
This means that music came
close to organized baseball IN

Steamed, baked or sauteed,
crab meat rates as one Of the
delicacies of the Eastern sea-
board.
The ways to prepare this
delectable seafood are legion.
One of the favorites, and one
visitors to the East Coast
clamor for, is deviled crab. And
here is a recipe with a brand
new touch 40 per cent
bran fakes are substituted for
the usual bread crumbs.
Among other things, this
switch of ingredients does
much to provide flavor con-
traSt. The mellow bran flavor
of the cereal blends perfectly
with the indescribably delicious
crab meat. Too, the crispy
flakes baked atop the crab
mixture give an extremely de-
sirable. texture contrast. Lest
you overlook the point, cereal
is inexpensive and it's ready
to use straight from the pack
age. Try this new version of
deviled crab and judge its
merits for yourself.
A fitting climax to a sum-
mer's dinner featuring deviled
crab as the entree is this del
icately favored caramel char
lotte pie. Caramel, banana
and coconut are artfully
blended in this elegant dessert.
It's refrigerator pie made in
an attractively lady finger
She Whipped evaporated
milk gives it an airy texture
that is we'll suited to the sum-
mer mood. The shell is simply
a matter of cutting lady fin
gers to fit and then lining the
pie pan. No baking involved!

Weekly Tree Talk
Outdoor Lights On Churches,
Homes, Lure Night Beetles To
Shrubbery

Outdoor nighttime illumination
of churches, suburban stores and
homes attract many nocturnal in
sects including those which feed
on foundation paintings.
Almost invariably laurel, rhodo-
dendron, holly and other founda-
tion paintings growing near these
outdoor lights show pronounced in
sect damage. Irregular holes are
chewed in leaves, or margins of the
leaves are eaten away. The damaged
tissue then browns.
In a spacious courtyard of a
church, not long ago, all the beau
tiful paintings were damaged i'm
this fashion. The courtyard lis
lighted every night.
1t is the work of the Asiatic gar
den beetles, says Don Cantwell OF
the Bartlett Tree Expert Co. This
insect hides by day usually at the
base of plants and trees and be
comes a Inarauder at night.
Cinnamon in color and about the
size of it's distant cousin, the JAP
anese beetle, is attracted to lights
and is frequently seen flying to
window screens in summer eve
nings. Then when hungry it attacks
the nearest foundation paintings
and trees, it is also fond of dahlias,
asters and chrysanthemums AS a
grub it does serious harm 70 turf.
One of the best methods of con-
troll is to spray with either arsenate
of lead or DDT. Two applications
are. recommended. one about mid
July, the second in mid-August, de-
pending up the activity of the ad-
ult beetles.
Spraying will also curb other
nocturnal feeders. The June bug,
for example, does extensive damage
at night. 1t can easily be identified
by its large brown or blackish
body and clumsy movements.
Pink oak leaves are often skele-
tonized by a species of weevil
which also works only the night
shift. Various types of cutworms,
some feeding just below ground
level, others crawling to feed on
fruit, leaves or buds of trees,
shrubs and vines, are nocturnal
pests. The violet sawfiy riddles the
leaves of violets and pansies only
at night.

ways are hungry for tonnage, and

imbalance is getting worse.
The roots OF our transport trou-
bles are more tangled and 20 deep

people think. Contributors to the
problem are long line of invent
ors with ideas, city builders with

the lure of instalment buying, the
heritage of local highway admins

be on the go.
The article traces the evolution
of transportation in this country
from the carriageless horse to the
horseless carriage. The analysis
portrays the unfolding of our high
way network through the periods of
the Conestoga Wagon, the Lancas-
ter turnpike, the canal craze, the
railroad era, and finally the age of
the motor vehicle.
"Getting the farmer out of the
mud" was the major emphasis in
the early stages of our highway
building program. We succeeded
in getting the farmer out of the
mud, but meanwhile motor We
hicles multiplied so rapidly that
some of our three million-mile sys-
TEN of highways and streets has
become desperately choked up with
vehicular traffic.
The Bank concludes by saying
that our highway builders have
gotten us out of the mud but we
are in muddle as result of the
swarming multitude of motor cars.

the frankfurter is king.
Peter E. Siegle. consultant for

the fact that everybody enjoys the
frankfurter reflects the basic Sc
cnrity and happiness of the ma

The frankfurter is national
dish at picnics, ball games and on
the dinner table.
Until rather recently, the frank
was considered either a snack food
or an economy dish" Siegle said
What we call high society
didn't accept the succulent frank,
perhaps because it was too reas-
enable in price"
He observes that now franks
have become socially acceptable
everywhere. This is submitted with
