President de Gaulle is re-
ported to have wished to
spare the costly experiment
tation in the Sahara and pur-
chase bombs and missiles
from the United States. He
was informed that this would
need special legislation and
that it was doubtful that
Congress would be willing to
provide it. Hence he decided
In concert with the conti-
mental allies to explode the
first bomb next spring.
Germany, according to
some reports, is contributing
toward the cost as well as
providing some technical per-
sonnel for the Sahara opera
ton. The combination Of
French genius and inventive
ness with the Germ an
thoroughness may prove of
great assistance to the free
world. 1t was the decades
long artiflcially kept strife
between the two neighbors
which provoked the last two
devastating wars and the
emergence of international
communism as one of the
greatest menaces to the world
since the days of Genghis
Khan and Attila. But now
that they have gotten to-
gether after realizing that
otherwise they might be in

Red avalanche, they offer

the Tree world has had for
some time that the onward
march of the Kremlin will
be arrested.
To some extent Gen. de

his determination (some call
it stubbornness) pays divi-

after Soviet Premier Khru-

States, Washington and
London were in full agree
ment with the Red ruler that
a summit meeting should be
held sometime in November,
Gen. de Gaulle raised valid
objection. He pointed out
that such a gathering of
heads Of state must have
thorough preparation. This
was our own view before Mr..

One Of his paragraphs
contains a truth which many
communities know all too
well.
When a democracy has
too many uneducated citi-
zens, their very presence
will tend to turn public de-
bates into personality con-
tests
"One of the great dangers
to society, when it has too
many uneducated people, is
that their inability to view
error with intellectual de-
tachment prevents early di-
agnoSis Of national mistakes
and quick remedial action =.
the uneducated man clings
to his mistakes with all the
more determination when
others point them out. To
him the critic is an enemy
who attacks him by Show
ing him up In public de-
bates the uneducated man
rises in anger to defend ma
tional cliches. slogans and
illusions against anyone who
urges that these unsupport-
ed beliefs be abandoned and
truth be faced.
TO him the critics action
If not outright treason is at
least suspiciously close to
disloyalty, for which the at
tacker must be punished. If
you don't like it here, why
don't you go somewhere
else?' This is his response to
the critic of any aspect of
the American way of life."
These are but samples. In
a time when education is our
most important topic, the
admiral is a valuable stimu-

CONSTANTINE BROWN
Common Market Nations of Europe
Called Big Foe of Soviet Imperialism

In the mass of conflicting
reports from all over the
world concerning develop
ments of military, economic
and moral nature, the aver
age American is likely to
overlook a third force"
which has come into being
in continental Europe in re-
cent months.
The expression third
force" is not new. It was
used by the neutralists in
En- gland. France, the
Scandinavian countries and
Italy for several years. But it
was used in the sense that
in the event of a conflict be-
tween international COM
munism and America, the
leader Cf the free world,
these countries would remain
on the sidelines and avoid
participation in another con-
flict.
The new third force"
composed of France, Ger
many, Italy and the other
members in the Common
Market is dedicated to the
maintenance of freedom and
to economic progress.
The solid improvement of
the financial and economic
status of members of the
third force" has permitted
its development as a first
rank military and political
power. 1t represents a cul-
turally and economically
advanced population of near
ly l60 million people with
vast natural resources and
great technical skills. While
until the very recent past
these nations depended al
most exclusively on America
for military and economic
assistance, they are now in
process of building everything
they need to counter a Soviet
attempt to spread out of
present Soviet boundaries.
Despite the advice of
Washington against the ex-
plosion of an A or H bomb
in the Sahara and the over
whelming vote in the United
Nations against such an en-
deavor, the French are going
ahead with their plans. They
point out that it would be as
dangerous for them to rely
in the future on what they
could obtain from across the
Atlantic as it was before

Acting Commerce Secretary
Philip A. Ray rejected Mr..

And he said the union and
management cannot escape re-
Sponsibility if the contract
dispute is not settled.
Cites Public Interest
"Only continued production
of steel in all its phases can
supply the real needs of de-
fense," Mr.. Ray wrote Mr..
Goldberg. THE public interest
requires the parties to the ne
gotiation to settle their diff
ferences at the collective bar
gaining table, and this respon-
sibility cannot be shifted"
At the same time, the Federal
Mediation Service announced
that the industry and union
have agreed to resume peace
talks here next Tuesday.
The 116-day strike shut down
most Of the steel industry until
it was halted by an 80-day
Taft-Hartley injunction. After
the 80-day cooling off period the
union is free to strike again if
no settlement has been reached.

AS a result, he said, the Army
flyers never did learn how to
arm the torpedoes so they
would explode.
Retired Rear Admiral Leslie
E. Genres, naval air COM
mander in the Alaskan theater
at the time, has given his own
account of the incident in the
current issue of U. S. News &
World Report.
Admiral Genres said the idea
to equip land-based B-26
bomberS with Torpedoes for use
in the Aleutian islands orig
mated with Army and Navy
pilots based together at Kodiak,
Alaska. Far from baking, he
said, the Navy command gave
unhesitating approval and
worked hard to make the plan
succeed.
The Army bombers lacked
the special equipment of the
Navy torpedo planes, he said,
making launching difficult.
And the Army pilots proved
slow to learn the special tech
niqueS required.
They were hard to convince
that a torpedo had to have a
submerged water run in order
to arm itself for explosion, and
that. lacking this run, they
would be duds," Admiral Geh-
res said.
That was the reason the only
torpedo actually fired at a

said. The torpedo dropped in

'Tis then 1 long for mothers /.
voice for mothers hand inV
mine.
o Holy Night. they say thou art
the fount of endless youth, :
Bring back to me my childhood
faith in Gods eternal truth. :
That simple confidence in Christ
with which | trusted Him,
When mother told the story of
the Babe of Bethlehem.
/ am sincerely afraid that in the
hurry and distractions of modern
life we have lost much of the spir-
itual meaning of Christmas that
was so real when mother told the
story of the Babe of Bethlehem"
AS I think about this there comes
unbidden to my mind that Incl
dent of Old Testament history when
the Jewish people gathered at Miz-
peh to choose their first king. The
choice was made by lot and the lot
chanced to fall upon a young man
by the name of Saul. When the
news of his selection was to be
conveyed to him, he could not be
found. He was hidden-so the Bible
states it-he was hidden among
the stuff" And many bewildered
people again this Christmas sea-
son will not find as their king the
Christ whose birthday il is. And
why not? 1t is because so much
stuff has crowded its way into
the observance of His birthday.
Many gifts, many decorations, many
Christmas trees, many festivities,
much social gayety and so very
much to eat and to drink-well,
that is what Christmas has come
to mean for many people. We grant
that most of these things are inno-
cent in themselves when rightly
used, but they become stuff with
which God must be seriously dis
pleased when they crowd out and
hide the Babe of Bethlehem from
the thoughts and the lives of Chris
tian people.
In closing the story of the Christ
child's birth the Gospel of Luke
brings us these words, But Mary
kept all these things and pondered
them in her. heart" She thought
earnestly and deeply about them,
/ ABOUT all LnaL mao happened TO ner
and for all mankind that night of
all nights there at Bethlehem when
God through her gave His only
begotten Son that whosoever be-
lieveth in Him should not perish
but have everlasting life"
May we do that, too, pondering
deeply about what Christmas really
means each time the Lords birth
day recurs, and doing that, may /
close this yuletide message with
the words of Phillips Brooks with
which / concluded my "Musing" of
last week:
20 Holy Child of Bethlehem
Descend to us, we pray,
Cast out our sin and enter in,
Be born in us today"

When mother told the story of

We children thought her rocking

The ruddy embers dying glow

look I've never seen elsewhere.

there in the twilight gloom,
The little Christ seemed very
near as if in yonder room;
We saw the shepherds and the
sheep, the manger and the stall,
Until the glory of the Lord
shone round about us all.
We heard the clink of camel
chains, as wise men came from
far,
Till, 10, above our kitchen roof
there shone the Christmas star
And angels, singing everywhere,
composed the Christmas hymn
When mother told the story of
the Babe of Bethlehem.
And as we looked upon her face,
the halo of her hair.
1t seemed to us another form
appeared behind her chair;
The face of her, the form of her
in far off David's town,
Who wrapped her Son in swadd-
ling clothes instead of silken
gown;
And in our mothers eyes we saw
the motherhood of men,
AS if the maid of Nazareth had
come to earth again,
Herself to witness of her Son
and all the light of Him
When mother told the story oi
the Babe of Bethlehem.
How swift upon the wings oi
time the days and years have
flown;
Of all the flock at mothers
