"One Of the significant lessons
to be learned from the Storm"
Admiral Hartwig, said, 'is that
it UNDERSIGNED the need for keep
ing an ample food and water sup
ply on hand. We have long
preached that residents should
have a 7-day supply stored for
just such an emergency. We hope
that residents who have not fol
lowed this practice will do so now
because of experiences gained
from the snow storm"
Helicopters from nearby serv-
ice installations were obtained in
a joint effort by county police
and c. d. to evacuate patients to
Montgomery General Hospital in
Sandy Spring from points in
Gaithersburg and Woodfleld.

SAVANNAH
Famous Name in Ships

Lakehurst N.A.S., N. J. (AFPs) --- The Naval Reserve Air Training Unit here has been taking part in a search for the grave of the first steamship to cross an ocean.
 The searchers are looking for the re- mains of the Savannah, which ran aground off Fire Island, N.Y., in 1891, when her skipper thought he had her headed into New York Harbor.
 The Savannah, whose name will be giv- en to the nation Is first nuclear-ppvered merchant ship was built in ISIS and ste- amed tarough, for she had burned up her fuel, 75 tons of coal and 25 cords of wood, ln less than four days.
 No trace of her has been found off Fire Island, but searchers using blimp with magnetic air detector gear, have spotted two possibilities off Bellport, NY.
 If the Savannah is found, one of her relics will be placed aboard the atomic powered freighter Savannah, the keel of which was scheduled to be laid Nav 22 ia Camden, N.J.

The Hammer Falls
The Communists called their
forces from all over the Republic
and organized a one-hour general
strike. The communized police and
armed workers militia marched
the Prague streets; Moscow and
Prague Communist radios joyfully
announced that the Communist
demands were backed by 200 mil
lion citizens of the Soviet Union.
The free world watched in
silent horror. President Benes
could no longer resist Communist
pressure; almost at gunpoint he
signed the nomination Of the new
cabinet which consisted solely of
Communists and few obedient
helpers.
Communist terror activities ex-
banded. There were arrests,
purges. trials. Jail, executions,
prosecutions.
President Benes was allowed by
the Communists to address the
people over the radio. They pre-
vented parliamentary meetings
and they mutilated the Parlia-
ment by arrests, prosecutions and
purges until they gained the
majority, The beloved Jan Ma
saryk's mysterious death drew the
attention of the whole world.
The Communists obviously had
expected some reaction of the free
world. Once they saw that the
West was not about to interfere
they presented the new constitu-
ton for the Presidents signature.
The President refused to sign, and
resigned. Then there was no OBJ
stacle in the way of the Kremlin
and its Czech followers to take
Czechoslovakia into the Soviet sa-
tellite camp.
Czechoslovak democracy was de-
feated. Yet the free world should
forever remember the final words
of BeneS:
MY greatest mistake was that
I refused to believe to the very last
that even Stain lied to me Gym
ically both in 1945 and later, and
that his assurances to me and to
Masaryk were an intentional de-
ceit."

united only if West Germany
withdraws from NATO and the
single German state accepts neu-
trality. There is considerable
doubt that even If the West ae-
cepted this condition, there could
be an agreement on German unity.
There is a grave danger, however.
that West Germany, frustrated
by the dilemmas of NATO STRAIT
egg and its deteriorating strength,
will seek an agreement on unity
with the Soviet Union on terms
which will inevitably weaken
NATO still more and risk Com
munist inf1ltration and subver-
sion Of a united German state.
The West can minimize this
danger by adapting NATO's STRAIT
egg to the nuclear era.
An effective deterrent to either
local or about Soviet attack on
Western Europe requires both
strategic and tactical nuclear
power comparable or superior in
strength to that of the Russians
and organized under a single mill
tary and political control. This
deterrent could be provided by a
radical transformation of NATO.
The United States could place its
strategic nuclear force under uni
fed NATO command, following
the pattern already established for
ground and tactical nuclear forces.
With this assurance that NATO
could deter an about Soviet at
tack on Western Europe, our allies
could be persuaded to devote their
defense resources to the restora-
ton and maintenance of the in
tegrated forces needed to deter
local attacks.
The deterrent would not be eff
fective, however, without polit-
ical arrangement to make 1t GER
tain that the NATO nuclear force
would, in fact, retaliate against
an about attack on either West
ern Europe or North America by
the strategic bombing of the So
Wet Union.
The United States would have
to be willing to take a decision,
publicly, and before a crisis arose.
to risk thermo- nuclear destruc-
ton for its European allies and
would give up its exclusive ma
tional control over the strategic
nuclear force which it considers
vital to national survival.
How Far to Go?
Just as there is doubt that a
common market or economic COM
munity can be fully achieved in
Europe without political union, SO
it is questionable whether an al
lance such as NATO can survive
in a world of divided and hostile
nuclear power without becoming
a military and political Atlantic
union.
Atlantic union is too remote a
goal to be helpful as an objective
of practical policy. Western Eu-
ropean union. however, may be a
necessary condition for attaining
economic detectives which the Eu-
ropeans have already set for them
selves BY extending the principle
of union to the military field and
by taking full and integrated adj
vantage of its present and pro-
spective economic growth and
chronological skills, particularly
those related to the atom, Western
Europe could become a nuclear
power comparable in strength to
either the Soviet Union or the
United States.
A military union of Europe
would not in itself solve the prob
lens which beSet and divide these
