Hioh on q Hilltop

It is refreshing to read in these
days of again-off- again summitry of
an international conference concerned
only with peaceful pleasure. Such one
has been held, unhurriedly, in hilltop
motel in the Swiss-AuStrian Alps as the
representatives Of four tiny European
states mapped joint strategy that in

Ter, DR.. Bohr's residence has
been the Mansion of Honor"
located in parklike surround
ings on the grounds of Co
penhagen's Carlsberg Brew
cries - an internationally
unique institution whose prof
its, all of them. are plowed
back into a foundation sup
porting science and culture.
Here in this handsome villa,
for which he pays no rent or
any costs of upkeep, he will
talk at length to his privi-
legged American guests about
the promise and terror in
herent in the atom. And he
will go on to emphasize, as
he did in his celebrated open
letter to the United Nations
in 1850, how the worlds pro-
gress and very survival de-
pend upon mutual openness"
and cooperation among the
nuclear powers.
But DR.. Bohr, vigorous
and alert at IA, is neither
naive nor wishful. 1t might
be said, rather, that he merely
entertains strong hopes. one
of which is that the Soviet
Union may actually be pre-
pared to join the West in
mutually acceptable and
trustworthy agreements on
nuclear control. In any event,
he ardently advocates the
establishment of projects
like Denmark's Risoe research
center throughout the world.
In his view, this is the best
and perhaps the only way to
make the atom serve all
nations instead Of annihil-
ating them. Few Of his con-
temporaries have done as
much to harness it for good
ends.

Political Prospectinu

new HorKS Governor R0cKe1eller
leaves his home State this week to test
the classic advice to go West, young
man." For as of breakfast time on
Thursday, the youthful Eastern Repub-
lican launches in Los Angeles four-day
schedule of public and private engage
ments that will permit him ito see and
be seen" in the three Pacific Coast States
and Idaho.
A politician facing thirty-five en-
gagements in such brief period might
reasonably be considered candidate for
something. Until recently, Mr.. Rookie
Teller was emphasizing only his interest
in being good Governor of the Empire
State. When plans for trip to the West
were first disclosed last month, however,
he acknowledged broadening Of his
interest to include "the vitality Of the
Republican Party" and desire to dis
cuss national and International issues"
with other party leaders. His travels,
he said, should give him "a broader I'M
derstanding of the political situation in
the country"
Actually, the trip to the West Coast
should give him most of all an opportu-
nifty to evaluate at first hand his own
prospects for the Republican presiden-
tial nomination-and a basis for decid-
ing whether and when to make bid for
this honor. On his schedule are news
conferences at every stop, at least three
major" speeches in California and Ore
gon, luncheons, banquets and closed
meetings with party officials.
On the surface, the fullest day Of
purely political activity comes in Los
Angeles on Thursday when the Governor
meets with the County Republican Com
mittee, the State Central Committee,
and with leaders of the Western States
Republican Conference. One of his
major addresses will be delivered there,
to the World Affairs Council. After
spending a busy Friday in San Fran
cisco, Mr.. Rockefeller's Saturday sched-
ule in oregon may have even greater
bearing on his long-term plans.
For in the capital city of Salem, he
will meet with Governor Mark o. Hat
field, one of the party'S new faces" who,
like Mr.. Rockefeller himself, survived
the Democratic trend in 1858, and who
has been marked as man to watch in
future G. o. P. history. Mr.. Hatfield'S
availability" as vice presidential
candidate particularly in combination
with an Easterner-already has been
noted. oregon has presidential pri-
mary on May 20, under law which vir-
tually requires the entry of all potential
candidates. Mr. Hatfield already has
been quoted as advising the New York
Governor to "come out of Information"
and plan a campaign in Oregon If he Is
interested in the nomination.
1t is unlikely, perhaps, that Mr..
Rockefeller will state his intentions
publicly on this trip But what he finds
surely will play a large part in shaping
his decision whenever it is announced.

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

Somebody says nagging
wives are responsible for
heart disease among males.
Nonsense" says Temple
ton Jones. Men are the
worse naggers in the world.
He asserts that women,
when they nag, usually have
a good purpose in mind,
namely, the betterment, in
some way, of the man.
Men, he says, merely nag
to be nagging.
The ways in which men nag
others, especially other males,
are many and varied.
There is the wight who
says, every time he sees you,
Getting a bit fat, eh?"
He knows you have taken
on weight, you know it, so
why is there -ly need to keep
talking about it all the time?
The need, of course, lies in
the peculiar psychology OF
the nagging male.
1t exalts his ego.
Somebody has said that the
male ego is terrific. 1t is!
At times the whole world
seems to unite in bolstering
and boosting this precious
ego. If women have such
ego, they manage to keep it
under control better.
Your average male, eSpe-
cialiy modern American, has
discovered that there is no
way, positively none, OF
boosting the personal aplomb
better than carping at an as
sociate.
This gives, evidently, a
pleasurable feeling of superb
GRITTY.
Since our very lives are
based on competition, Moth
ing pleases most of us more
than to feel that we are
ahead of somebody else, eth
er in wealth, position, health
or whatnot.
The competitive urge
smotherS many more noble
traits out of our lives, and
we push and jostle until the
grim reaper, so called, cuts
us down at last.
Does life have to be so
competitive?

Germs as Weapons in World War II?
By THOMAS R. HENRI

Has biological warfare with
It's enormous, but still largely
unknown, potentialities ever
been waged in modern times?
This question probably is
unanswerable, says Colonel
Doctor Djordjl Dragic Of the
Yugoslav Peoples Army, in
what he claims is a dis
passionate treatise just trans
lated and published through
the Department Of Commerce.
There is, as might be ex-
pected, a somewhat anti
Western slant.
The question is unanswer-
able because nobody can
assert with certainty that a
disease outbreak is due to
enemy action or entirely to
nature. Here perhaps lies the
greatest viciousness and
greatest advantage in using
germs as a weapon. Nobody
is ever likely to admit an
accusation.
But intentions, at least,
have been good. DR.. Dragic
seems convinced that this
country is an offender with
zone OF the worlds largest
military biological laborato-
ries and a plant for industrial
production" He also accuses
the Germans, Japanese and
others.
BW Research Pressed
The Yugoslav soldier doctor
speaks for himself and his
account is quoted as it ap-
pears in the treatise:
ut is known today that
during World War II both
belligerents, Germany and
Japan on one side and the
United States on the other,
made great efforts to solve
many problems in connection
with the use of biological
agents.
ut is known that the jap
anese built an experimental
station in the vicinity of Har-
bin in which 5000 persons
were employed. among whom
were a large number of we'll
known specialists. Allegedly
this station had about 7,50C
incubators for the propaga-
ton of fleaS which were to be
used for spreading the plague
epidemic. In the same man.
ner vast quantities of cholera
and typhoid fever germs were
prepared. For the same pur-
pose special porcelain bombs
were produced there too, the
remains Of which containing

riers were found in the vicin-

MORE TOURIST ATTRACTIONS

ANY ISLAND, city, section, or what have you,
which is heavily dependent upon tourist trade, must be
constantly the alert for new sources Of attraction and
new approaches. 1t is not enough thatthere is something
to sell, the buying public must know about it. A clear
example Of this type Of approach is evidenced in. the
many angles which our neighbor, Puerto Rico, uses to
good advantage.
IN ADDITION TO two new hotels, that Island
stages a number of programs intended to attract tour
lists. One Of the most outstanding of these is the Casals
Festival and now the Drama Festival which opened
recently with the play Look H~omeward, Angel with
movie actress Fay Banter and Albert Decker. The
second Of these plays is Harvey" and will star the well
known Joe E. Brown.
WHILE SIZE N other factors may not permit
of such pretentiousp programs as Puerto Rico can put on,
itshould nevertheless be clear to us here that we need
not only a continuing program, but one of vigor and i'm
provement in order to stay alive and even moving for
ward. The Christmas Festival for ST. Croix, and the
Carnival for st. Thomas should become ~highlights for
tourist attraction.
PERHAPS WE CAN work out a program with
Puerto Rico which would permit us to call attention to
these Islands, and at least have some Of the tourists pay
a flying visit. The object of all this would be to get the
largest possible number of people visit these Islands.
The rest would be easy because they would then return
ii they liked the place, and there is q great likelihood Of
that.
WILL THE TOURIST trade may be in fairly good
shape, there is much more that can be had from it, and
