Appeal to Arms

AS one reads of jet bombers smash
ing Egyptian defenses, it is hard to believe
that this is the work of France and
Britain. For this appeal to arms, this
use of overwhelming force to crush a
relatively defenseless country, also deals
Shattering blow to the moral base on
which the whole Western position has
rested.
True enough, Egypt's President Mas
ser is an INSCRIPTIONS. and hated man.
We do not doubt that in some degree he
poses threat to French, British and
Israeli vital interests. But there are
different ways of dealing with such
threat, and we think the Manchester
Guardian is right in saying that France
and Britain have chosen the way of utter
folly. For in the long run bombs and
guns, invoked in cause that is immoral
and unjust, are Self-defeating inStru-
ments of national policy. One does not
need to call the roll of deSpised names
to be reminded of the shades of the men
on horseback who trampled for a while
on the rights of other men, but who, in
the end, were brought down by their own
exceSSes
The President spoke to the Nation
last night with restraint. He said that
this aggression in the Middle East was
launched without consultation with the
United States. Our allies did not even
inform this Government in advance of
their intentions. Mr.. Eisenhower went
on to express the belief that the Anglo
French decision was in "error" and that
it can scarcely" be reconciled with the
principles and purposes of the United
Nations. He also said that I'VE are forced
to doubt even if resort to war will for
long serve the permanent interests of
the attacking nations"
The President was cautious in de-
filming the future role of the United
States. "In the circumstances I have
described" he said, there will be no
United States involvement in these pres
ent hostilities." This would seem to leave
the door open for a different policy if
circumstances should change, if the
present hostilities" resulting from this
rash adventure should expand, as 'little
wars" sometimes do, into a major conflict.
For the time being, however, our
eHortS Will be devoted to an attempt to
"localize the fighting and to end the
conflict" In this connection, the Presi-
dent rightly said: There can be no
peace-without law. And there can be no
law-if we were to invoke one code of
international conduct for those who OPP
pose uS-and another for our friends"
The matter now goes to the United
Nations General Assembly, called into
emergency session this afternoon over
the protests of France and Britain.
Whether the Assembly can do more than
pronounce moral judgment condemning
this aggression remains to be seen. per
haps Egypt's ability to offer any organized
resistance will have been crushed before
the Assembly can act at all. Even so,
the moral Judgment must be pronounced.
And the French and British, if they suffer
nothing worse, will have to live with it
through the years to come.

Worlds TOUGHEST Job

The President of our coun-
try needs help. He needs it
now. or q year from now, no
matter what his name or what
he looks like. He needs all
the help that you and I can
give him.
The President, Of whatever
name or party, undoubtedly
many times does not have
complete inform alton or,
knowledge to make adequate
decisions. Many times there
may be no man or group Of
men who can honestly advise
him well on what he should
do when faced with a serious
problem, perhaps a greater
problem than has ever existed
before. How can you and 1
give him the most powerful
assistance, aid that cannot be
supplied in any other way?
Let's give the President all
the help we can by praying
for him today, tomorrow, and
each day on into the, future.
Perhaps this is not as easy
for you as it Is for me. I
usually walk for a short block
in front Of the White House
each morning on my way to
work. I find myself think
ing of what the President may
have to face this day. /
think about how what he does
may affect me, and you. and
millions. And ! feel that the
very least / can do is to ask
God to be close to the Presi-
dent today-to give him
strength, and courage, and
integrity-to give him great
wisdom, and direction, and
guidance. I ask this In believ-
ing faith, expectantly.
Paul Hyde Bonner expresses
1t with dynamic faith that
each Of us holds within him
the power to help mold a
world in which peace may
come and remain to flourish. /"
1t is urgent that you and I
utilize the power within us
through praying for help for
the President, today.

HARTFORD, COMM the
last IL presidential elections,
only one President or presi-
Dental candidate has carried
all six New England States
Dwight D. Eisenhower in 1852.
The prospects today are that
Eisenhower win give a repeat
performance in this section OF
the country next Tuesday, with
the possible exception-or
probable exception--of Rhode
Island.
Connecticut. Vermont, Maine
and New Hampshire all seem
sure to vote for Ike--and
Massachusetts, is described as
leaning strongly to him.
The people of New England
swung to Eisenhower four
years ago because they wanted
an end Of the Korean war, were
disguised with the mess" in
Washington, and felt the
Democrats had been pretty
stupid in their dealings with
Soviet Russia. Many Of them
will stick with the Presi-
dent this year. believing he is
the country's best bet for peace.
New England has had its
spots of unemployment. but by
and large it has shared in the
great prosperity of the United
States in the last couple of
years. Also. the voters have
not forgotten that Mr.. Eisen-
hover led the armies Of the
United States and of the allied
nations to victory in Europe
during the Second World War.
Governor Trouble for G. o. p.
Notwithstanding President
Eisenhower's expected victory
in this region. the Republicans
are having Governor trouble
in the four Northern New Eng
land States.
Maine, in its early Septem-
Der election, voted Gov. Ed
mund s. Muskie, a Democrat,
a second term.
In Massachusetts, with pop
ular Gov. Christian A. Herter
stepping aside. the Democrats
threaten to elect their can
didate, Foster Furcolo, over Re-
publican 1t. Gov. Sumner G.
Whittier. Indeed, Mr.. Furcolo
is believed to have the edge.
Only a big vote for Mr.. Eisen-
hover in the presidential race
could save Mr.. Whittier.
In New Hampshire, Republic
can Gov. Lane DwinnelI is re-
ported to be engaged in a hard
battle to succeed himself, and
finally. in rock-ribbed Republi-
can Vermont the Democrats
are hot on the trail Of Re-
publican Gov. Joseph B. john
son, who won two years ago
by a narrow margin.
These gubernatorial cleo
tons are close to the people.
Judging from Gov. Muskie's
repeat victory in Maine. and
other close gubernatorial con-
tests in New England, the So
called Democratic trend which
has been in evidence in the
elections Of 1858, 1854 and
1855. is still continuing.

The Democratic charge
that Mr.. Eisenhower is q part

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES z. TRACEWELL

Much Is being written these
days about added colors in
foods and the possibilities they
may harm the consumer.
Temp Jones wants to know
why something isn't being said
about the totally unnecessary
coloring matter in capsules
which hold various medicines.
Americans, he believes, con-
sumo literally millions and
millions Of tablets and cap
sules.
And all Of them, Jones AYERS,
are colored. some pink. some
red, some yellow, clear through
the rainbow.
Jones recently bought some
sleeping capsules colored a
vivid purplel
After looking them over
for a time. he went to the
drug store. bought some clear
gelatine capsules Of the same
size, and filled them with the
white powder from the purple
capsules.
Then he threw the empty
purple atrocities into the
waste basket.
The time will come, Jones
says. when people win de-
mand white or clear capsules
and tablets.
At present they are like a
sleeping giant who does not
know his own strength.
In time, the campaign to
take dye colors out Of food
products will extend to the
pharmaceutical industry.
After all, the urge to present
medicines in tricky capsules Is
just q stunt, probably foisted
on the people by the urge to
present them with neat look
ing products.
The pink and white capsules.
for instance. do look very nice
in the bottle.
And they harmonic. no
doubt Of that, with the label
on both the bottle and the car
ton.
But most people. Temp Jones
says. throw the carton away.
and never look at the art as
poets Of their pills and tablets
and capsules after one glance.
A pink and white capsule.
once in the mouth, Is no object
Of beauty. and shortly disap-
pears.
Once down, 1t makes no diff
ference TO anybody, even the
manufacturer. whether It vss
red. white or blue.
The point is. Jones believes.
the capsule content Is pretty
enough as is.
Usually the blend OF In
gradients comes out TO white
with the base material added.
Or pale yellow, or some
other pleasant coIoring.
The capsule need not be
colored at all, and II It we're
not. literally hundreds Of tons
Of coloring matter would be
saved from going down the
outlets Of the American public.

Another point. Jones be-
lieyes, Is that this dear old
American public must Be saved
from itself.

SQLtOH.
ned to decide county mat
tiers than nonowners, why
wouldn't large property own
ers be even better than small
ones? Our course here is clear.
First, we exclude those home
owners" who are still max
ing payments on mortgages.
Next we set a floor under our
'freeholders." requiring that
their holdings be at least, say,
$25,0o0. (This might be de-
fined as assessed valuation
just to preclude any peas
ants" from slipping in.) Then,
of course, we gradually raise
the figure until we reach the
point where the single largest
property owner operates the
county. And this takes us
right back to where Arlington
began as q great estate under
a single proprietor.
The flow of American his
tory has been away from rule
by the landed interests. This
"freeholders" proposition
would futilely attempt to
dam the flow Of freedom and
re-establish a discarded doc
trine which Americans have
traditionally opposed.
The Arlington "freeholders"
plan is just as uneconomic as
it is undemocratic. The charge
that apartment jewellers and
other renters do not pay taxes
is q necessary complaint for
advocates Of the scheme. It
has no basis in economic fact.
The substantial tax pay
ments from apartment houses
in Arlington County do not
come from the life savings Of
the landlords nor do they ma
terialize from thin air. They
are collected by the landlords
from their tenants as an in
gredient of the rent. These
are just as real payments as
the taxes paid by "free-
holders" even though they
are collected in a different
fashion.
Do apartment residents pay
their way in Arlington County?
The most thorough-going study
of this question Economic
Survey" by Homer Hoyt Asso-
ciates, September. 1851 dis
closed that apartment renters
were more than paying their
way. Their tax payments ex-
ceeded the costs to the county
of the services they received.
We "freeholders," on the other
hand. were found to be getting
greater dollar-value services
than we were paying in taxes.
The numbers and size Of the
apartment developments in the
county have determined that
apartment residents are to be a
large and permanent group in
our population. They are an i'm
portant market for the county's
businesses and services as well
as a valuable human resource.
They make an important con-
tribution to Arlington If they
are encouraged to participate
in community affairs.
1t seems obvious that, in the
long run, any measure which
makes apartment residence in
Arlington less attractive can
have serious economic effects.
The "freeholder" veto is a
restrictive device aimed at
curbing the authorization Of
bond issues. Its advocates
make no bones about the fact
that they want to reduce the
county's borrowing TO finance
new schools. roads, sidewalks.
sewers. etc. In the interest Of
economy. they ask us TO erect
a road block TO civic improve
ment. We ought TO find out
exactly how much this road
block itself is going to cost.
Where 1t exists in practice
today. the "freeholder" con-
cept is a relic Of q long-van-
lshed era.
