Marvellous Mexico

Flying to Mexico is like fly

The city is jam packed with
all kinds Of cars.
Barefooted old ladies with
cameo profiles, long braids and
dark sad eyes. sell lottery tick

Indians in torn knee-length
pants brouse in front of the
Old Cathedral. Outside at the
fountain Spanish ladies make
lace while they await the next
Mass.
The Indian civilization that
was once Mexico is not all lost.
1t is apparent in many ways,
and a trip to the Pyramids is
a must. The old museum

two. as well as the handsome
new art palace.
The Mexicans are so nice

Puppy VIII Stop Biting

Mrs. L., BOIUie. Nd.
Your puppy will stop biting
and chewing when his milk
teeth disappear and his per-
manent teeth have formed.
Please give the little fellow
some leather to chew on such
as an old slipper or shoe. Be
very careful so that no metal.
such as hooks and eyes are on
the shoe as they might get
fastened between his teeth or
cut his throat. Your puppy
will stop chewing in about a
year. Luck to you and the cute
little fellow. We we're babies
too, and put things in our
mouths. Remember?

Cut in Defense
Peril 10 West,
Dulles Warns
Secretary Opens
Testimony in House
On Foreign Aid Bill
BY J. A. OLeary

Secretary of State Dulles
warned Congress today it woulc
not be safe to alter or weaken
the defenses of the free world
at this time merely because the
Russians are talking about peace
and disarmament.
He was the first witness before
the House Foreign Affairs Com
mittee on the Presidents request
for a 1913 billion foreign aid pro-
gram for the year starting July l
At the same time the Senate
Foreign Relations Committee
which approved a $3.6 billion bill
Friday. today made public its
report in support of that amount
The Senate committee said the
American aid program has played
IAN indispensable part" in keep
ing the free world free, and
added:
Those who would abolish OF
emasculate the program because
OF its past mistakes frequently
overlook this simple and elo-
quent fact"
Voluble Propaganda
Mr.. Dulles told the House
committee Soviet rulers "propa-
gandize volubly about peace and
disarmament"
But we do not yet know
whether they are in fact willing
to accept the safeguards and
procedures which will make dis
armament safe for the free ma
lions and make it prudent to
base peace more on disarmament
and less on deterrent and de-
fensive strength and cohesion, y
he continued.
Secretary Dulles also told the
committee he sees no possibility
of any imminent change in
American policy toward Red
China.
Representative Jackson, Re-
publican of California. had
asked the question because of a
newspaper cartoon which pict-
lpred Mr.. Dulles alone on a sink
ing ship labeled China Embargo
Policy.
Has Been Alone Before
II have been alone on ships
before and gotten ashore" Mr..
Dulles remarked.
Later. he added, II don't want
to infer that I am alone in this
matter"
Mr.. Jackson observed that II
he needed q crew there would be
plenty Of volunteers.
The Secretary asked House
to remember that no
nation which shared in a mutual
program has been lost
to communism thus far. He said
nearly a score Of nations with
about 300 million people have
gone under Communist control.
but none Of them at the time of
seizure. was protected by mutual
security pacts.
Such a record shows what
folly it would be for us to agree
to dismantle our common de-
Tense system in reliance on I'M
supervised Soviet promises" Mr..
Dulles added. 1T would be
equal folly to dismantle that
system by our own action. and
ourselves wreck or weaken the
collective defenses which pro-
vide a proved deterrent against
aggression at the least cost"

which United States soldiers may

to guard American equipment on
