LisHess Primary

Warren D. QuenStedt, Democratic
nominee for Congress from the 10th Dis
trict in nearby Virginia, is said to be
planning vigorous campaign in his
effort to unseat Representative Joel T.
Broyhill He faces tough job, one that
will call for plenty of vim and vigor.
For it will not be easy for anyone to un-
seat Mr.. Broyhill as long as he continues
to hold the favor of SO many voters of
both parties in his district.
There seemed to be an acknowledge
ment of Mr.. Broyhills strong position in
the apathy which prevailed in Tuesdays

than 5000 persons out of the estimated
10000 eligible voters went to the polls
OF course, Republicans are not supposed

The high price of meat a few
years ago made lot of vege-

Setback in japan

The chief effect of Sundays parlia-
mentary elections in Japan is that Pre-
mier Hatoyama and his conservative
Liberal-Democratic government have run
into serious new roadblock in their
effort to push through the constitutional
changes needed to speed up the country'S
rearmament. The setback is one that is
especially welcome to the MoScow-Peiping
axis.
Although it is true that the Liberal
Democratic Party still retains majority
control of the Diet by wide margin, it
has fallen short of what it sought in
Sundays voteZ-hamely, more than two
thirds of the seats In the House of Coun-
cillorS, which corresponds roughly to our
Senate. If that goal had been attained,
then the Hatoyama government would
today be in a position to bring about an
early constitutional amendment to build
up Japan's inadequate defenses to the
degree obviously demanded by the times.
But the ,antirearmament forces, predom-
inantlyIthe Socialists, have won a suffl-
cient increase in their parliamentary
strength to block any real progress toward
that objective for months to come
In fact, as a result of Sundays vote,
it is now felt in Japan that no substantial
advances are likely to be made in this
field until new Diet elections are held in
1859, at which time the returns conceiv-
ably may be no better than those just
recorded. Interestingly enough of course,
the root of all this uncertainty can be
found in the occupation policy enforced
by our country after the japanese sur
render in 1945. For it was under that
policy, as carried out by General Mac
Arthur, without dissent, that Hirohitos
shattered empire adopted constitution
in which the -belligerent Land of the
Rising Sun forever" renounced the right
to maintain an army, navy or air force.
This unwiSe and unrealistic renunci-
ation--the first of its kind in the history
Of nationS-has been a constant obstacle
to Japan's postwar rearmament. Pre-
sumably, one of these days, the people
of the country will take the necessary
constitutional action to rectify the situa-
ton, but apparently they prefer to pro-
crastinate and let the matter drift at
present. Meanwhile, still depending pri-
marily on American power to keep them
safe from aggression, they are gambling
with their own national defense.

A recent letter by David
Heller complains about a pro-
posed airport in Montgomery
County and creation of drag
strip there for hot-rodS.
l am a student at Maryland
UniVersity'S College of Arts
and Sciences and am employed
by the Government for the
summer months. l am also
President of the D. c. Dragons
Hot Rod Club. 1t is in connec-
ton with this phase Of my life
that / write you.
Our club has been in exist
ence for nearly five years and
it was through us that the pro-
posed program for a drag strip
in Montgomery County was be-
gun. We had numerous meet
ingS with Forest Gustafson of
the county recreation board.
Through Mr.. GuStafson we
presented our plan to the
county council at its June
meeting. Every one of the
council members seemed to
take an interest in what we
had to say and many of them
asked questions about the
different phases of the layout
and operation of this pro-
posed strip and seemed we'll
satisfied with the answers we
gave.
The point I would like to
make to Mr.. Heller is that the
meeting was a public one and
open to any citizen of Mont
gomery County. If Mr.. Heller
is really as concerned about
the drag strip as'he appears to
be, it seems to us he should
have bothered to find out some
facts before calling the idea
ridiculous" He would. have
learned by attending the meet
ing that the proposed strip
would be self-Supporting and
even be able to turn profits
back to the county after one or
two years of operation.
Mr.. Heller also seems to feel
it is ridiculous for a group of
hot-rodders to enjoy them
selves on drag strip Per-
haps. instead. Mr.. Heller would
have us race on the streets.

that the D. c. Refuse Depart
ment picks up 100 truckloads
of trash daily from our streets
and alleys.
1t would be we'll and wise to
make it a misdemeanor to
throw any trash or refuse on
the streets. punishable by a
line OF 81 tor even ST.. am
sure such a procedure would
soon correct the deplorable
condition of our streets, and it
would bring some revenue into
the Golfers of our local gov
eminent, and teach people to
be neat and tidy and to observe
our laws regarding littering
the streets of our fair city.
l knew a man visiting Ger
many several years ago who
got letter from his wife in
New York telling him she had
secured passage on a certain
boat, due to arrive in Ham
burg on a certain day. After
reading the letter while sit
ting on park bench, he tore
1t up and threw the scraps
onto the grass. A policeman
saw him and came up to him
and said it was against the law
to do that. that he had to pick
up every piece of that paper.
Then he marched him to Jail.
where he had to pay a small
fine, something like the equiv
alent of 81 in our money. The
man paid it. naturally, but said
afterward he had it coming to
him, for in reality he had no
right to do such a thing.
Now if somebody or some
civic organization will pick up
this idea and do something
about it, like making such con-
duct a misdemeanor punish
able by a small fine, we will
soon see better-looking streets
and alleys, and perhaps. with
another source of revenue
tapped by d. c. authorities,
they will remove that tax on
food.

THE POLITICAL MILL
By GOULD LINCOLN
Nonsense in Attacks on Eisenhower

unincorporated business by 80
per cent within 30 days after
he took Office as Governor"
Morhous took after the New
York Democratic State Chair
man, Michael H. Prendergast,
too, for calling the President
"a do-nothing, care-nothing,
knoW-nothing, drift-and-drag
Republican President" Said
Morhous: THE American
people. including, of course,
millions of sincere, conscien-
tious Democrats, have too
much respect for President
Eisenhower and too finely
developed sense of fair play to
stomach such irresponsible
Democratic rawlings"
More and more. the Demo-
Gratis are referring to Eisen-
hover as a "part-time Presi-
dent" unable to do his job. No
matter how successful the
Presidents recovery, first from
a heart attack, and more re-
Gently from an operation, they
are seeking to convince the
people the President soldiers"
on the conduct of his Office.
Presidents of the United States
are not time-clock punchers,
though they work hard.
Neither the late Franklin D.
Roosevelt nor his successor,
Harry S. Truman, had a time
clock in the White House to
punch. The New Dealers and
Fair Dealers rejoiced when
these Democratic Presidents
found it possible to take time
off and relax. And they did
take time off.
Attacks Not Convincing
These personal attacks on
the President are neither con-
vincing nor edifying. They
sound like poor substitutes for
any real issue against Eisen-
hover and the conduct of his
administration. Eugene Field,
author and humorist, once
wrote a dramatic criticism of
a Shakespearean actor who
played King Richard the
Third, in which he said the
actor played the king as
though he expected someone
else to play the ace" The
Eisenhower critics are no more
convincing.
President Eisenhower, as a
candidate for reelection. must
stand on the record of his ad-
miniStration. 1t is true he has
a tremendous personal follow
ing. But he must go before the
voters on the great issues of
peace. progress and prosperity.
and the part he himself and
his administration have played
to advance those causes. The
Republican campaign leaders
are confident that these are
the issues which will win for
the President and for other
Republican candidates. The
President and his associates
are confident that the country
will give its approval. Also,
the President will urge there
is much still to be done that
can best be done by continuing
the present government.

Hiqher Annuities

Federal Civil Service annui-
tants have wondered whether
they could expect an increase
in their annuities during this
session of Congress.
Joseph Young stated more
than once during the past
month or so that the Civil
Service Committee of the
House or Senate. as the case
might be. had scheduled hear
ings to begin 1.-The following
week in. regard to Federal
annuitieS, and recently he said
that the Senate Civil Service
Committee was due to give its
approval to the bill raising
the annuities of retired Fed
eral workers by another rs per
cent over last years raise"
removing the present S4.l04
ceiling, and granting survivor
ship annuity benefits to wild
oWs of retireeS who died be-
fore 1948. AS yet, however, he
has reported no action by Con-
gress.
The National Association of
Retired Civil Employees is
working untiringly to bring
about favorable congressional
action on Federal annuities.
Why all this delay, l ask the
Congress, while old and sick
retirees especially must be suf-
fering great hardship in try
ing to meet their doctor and
medical bills, and the con-
stantly increasing living costs
for them as we'll as for all
retirees?
I say to Federal annuitants
that all they can do now is
to exercise patience-the pa
thence of good old Job-and
it could happen that Congress,
before adjournment, will re-
ward them with a pleasant
surprise in the nature of an
annuity increase.

A lot of nonsense is written
about Democratic attacks on
President Eisenhower and his
administration. An effort is
made to differentiate between
attacking Eisenhower per
sonally" and hurting criticisms
at his subordinates-in fact,
his administration. An attack
on the Eisenhower administra-
ton is an attack on the Presi-
dent, of course. But it is sug-
gested that in some way an
attack which does not strike
at the President himself, by
name, is less dangerous for the
Democratic candidates. Other
Democrats insist that the only
way to defeat the President is
to criticize him personally.
One or two of them have
prided themselves on such
direct attacks. Gov. Hartman
of New York, for example. He
appears to believe that his
scoring of Eisenhower makes
him. Hartman. a more ac-
ceptable and perhaps a more
successful candidate. to run
against the President.
The attacks made on Eisen-
hover to date-the personal
attacks, so called-haven't set
the world af1re. No one has
charged the President with
dishonesty. But he has been
pictured as stupid, lacking
leadership, uninformed, lazy, a
man of clay in the hands of
INSCRIPTIONS men of great
wealth. Gov. Hartman COM
planned that the President does
not read-that he never reads
a book. Perhaps Hartman. a
candidate for the Democratic
presidential nomination, hopes
to get the "bookworm" vote.
His nearest rival for the Demo-
cratic nomination, Adlai Ste
venson, already has the egg
head" vote.
Attacks May Increase
AS the presidential cam
paign goes forward, the Demo-
cratic attacks on Eisenhower
may be expected to increase
unless they are found to be
aiding rather than hurting the
President.
The Eisenhower attackers,
however, are likely to find
themselves under fire. Take
the Governor of New York, for
example. L. Judson Morhous,
youthful and hard driving
State chairman of the New
York Republicans, has been
sinking the knife in the Harri-
man hide pretty regularly.
Referring to Hartman as "a
veteran of the polo cavallV,"
Morhous commented that the
Governor contends with a
straight face that our national
defense policies are being mis-
handled by the man who sue
cessfully led the greatest allied
military crusade in all history"
Morhous said, too, that Harri-
man has had the gall to say
President Eisenhower doesn't
give a damn about small
business. although Hartman
raised the State tax on small,
