III Recorded Weekly BY l
II DrEDvtARDs kUHLrfANN 7

Months passed and he found that
by strange c0incidence he had
been. assigned as . private to the
regiment from which he had re-
signed his commission. One night.
out in mo Mans Land ana az the
risk of his own life, he rescued an
officer and carried him to safety.
There he recognized him as one of
his former friends. Without speak
ing word about 1t. he took q white
feather from the box In his picket
and returned II to the dying officer
who months before had sent Il to
him.
Other months sped BY. In q sor-
tie "over. the top he himself was
severely wounded. Recovering con-
sciousness. he found himself in q
shell hole with q single compan-
ion, severely wounded also. In ans
wer to this ones pitiful cry for
water he gave him the last prec-
ious drops from his own canteen.
In doing this he recognized that
this was his other officer friend.
With supreme effort he managfied
to get the second feather from the
box, slipped 1t into the others pock-
ct and then lapsed into unconscious
ness.
Weeks passed, weeks of pain in 3
hospital bed. Then he was invalid
ed home to England to receive the
Victoria Cross for distinguished ser
vice. In the crowd that witnessed
this bestowal of honor he saw his
former fiancee in the garb of q
Red Cross nurse. As he passed he
handed her a little box stained
with mud and blood. She opened 1t
to find the white feather she once
had given to him and knew how
cruel and unfair her judgment had
been.
heroes of the nation that each re-
curing year are given grateful
recognition on independence Day
and Memorial Day, LET us not think
alone OF those whom nature has
endowed with that reckless brava-
do that disdains danger. Let us
think, too, of those sensitive souls
who believe deeply in the sanctity
Of human life and hate war-seilsi-
tive souls. but not really towards.
who needed to win victories over
themselves before they could go
out and fight others. Outlines these
are the greatest heroes.
The same basic truth obtains in
civilian walks of life. The greatest
battles here are fought. the great
est victories here are won in our
own lives. We must win over our
selves before we can achieve VIC
tories in other fields. This is not
easy-harder for some than for
others. So let us be slow to hand
the white feather to those who
find the struggle arduous and the
victory slow of attainment IL 1t Is
attained at all. 1t Is a narrow
line between towards and heroes
and who are we to draw II.

THREE WHITE FEATHERS
ALlfe's greatest victories are those
we win over ourselves"

1t was on a Saturday afternoon.
five or six years ago. Returning to
my study in the parish house !
found a mixed bouquet Of flowers
standing there-red and white and
blue and each blossom exquisitely
beautiful. / do not know who
brought the flowers or in whose
garden they had grown, but this
matters little. / can enjoy them
and carry them to the chancel of
my church for tomOrrOw's services
that others may enjoy them also
even if / may never know from
whence they have come.
And sometimes when I seek to
illustrate some abstract truth, that
strange something we call our
subconscious mind brings to the
doorway of my memory the very
thing l need. Like the flowers
brought to my study l seldom know
from whence such Illustrations
come. Gothic, the German drama
tist and poet, once said that his
best thoughts came to him unex-
pectedly and unbidden like birds
flying in the window.
But he used these thoughts never
questioning their origin but delight
ing in their aptness and their beau
ty. So it is with me. Perhaps the
fact that the flowers in my study
were red and white and blue, and
that Independence Day is again
upon our Threshold, makes mem-
ory bring back to me today a story
of anonymous authorship that fits
nicely into the basic thought OF this
national holiday.
The story is titled Three White
Feathers" and concerns three
young men who were officers in the
same regiment of the British Ar
my. When the clouds of war began
to threaten ominously one of the
three resigned his commission. AS
he had feared, war did come
World War land his two associ-
ates went at once to the battle
lines in France. Now it so hap
pened that one day while he was at
the home of his fiancee there was
brought to him small package
with French postmark. Opening
the package he found a small box
containing two white feathers, one
from each of his officer friends.
Asked to explain this strange gift.
he was man enough to confess that
they had been sent to him as SYM
bols of his cowardice. Without
saying a word his fiancee took a
third white feather from her hat
and laid it in the box beside the
others and walked away. Catching
a new vision Of his duty to his
country. the young man hurried to
London and enlisted under an as
sumed name.

SWISS SHOW
| WARDROBES
OF WATCHES

BASLE, Switzerland {P)-A diff
ferent watch for every occasion and
every day of the week is the latest
Swiss idea for fashion-cOnsciOus
women. At the Both Annual Watch
Fair here top attraction is Col
Drama T." the complete watch
wardrobe.
A set of one clip-in watch comes
with seven different face mount
ings and changeable bands in five
colors. Thirty-five combinations
are possible with the set.
BuiIt-in Battery
Also new are wrist watches for
men or women with a built-in bat
terry that lights up the dial at the
press of a button, lip-stick watches,
powder compact watches, cigarette
lighter watches and clocks, and the
sniallest-ever musical alarm clock,
measuring just over an inch in di-
ameter.
Some 2,300 Swiss watch manu-
facturers, ranging from the big
names to small family factories,
are showing their wares to inter-
national buyers. Gadgets aside, the
most important development of this
years watch fair is said to be the
vacuum watch which may last a
| lifetime. 1t is so new that the
makers have not yet set price
for it and it may not be on the
market for some months. A robot
demonstration shows the watch
being dipped alternately into boil
ing and freezing water; its one
piece vacuum case eliminates con-
densation, rust and corrosiOn.
Strictly Fabulous
For upper income brackets only
is "Icef1ower," a ladies' watch laden
with rs carats of diamonds. At $685.
600, it's the most expensive piece
in the show.
But men can go extraVagant, too.
Nearly all the better manufacture
ers are showing at least one mems
model with a gold case encircled
with small diamonds. One design
| in platinum circled with diamonds
costs a cool $4,000. Not to be out
done. the same company that pro-
duced "Icefiower" shows a mans
dress watch with period-costumed
tennis players in pink and white
gold on the handless face. Press a
button and tennis balls shoot up to
indicate the hour and minutes.
The fiashlight watches have to
be recharged about once year,
and are supposed to be more es-
thetic than old-fashiOned luminous
paint dials. A ladies' model, sell
ing for about $50 in Switzerland,
gives off strong enough beam to
be used for hunting keys or key
holes in the dark.
Oyster Watch
ON view at the fair is the "oyster
watch, which recently went down
to 10000 meters under the sea at
tached outside the bathysphere
Another manufacturer is showing a
mems watch with the day of the
week on the dial in a choice of IL
languages. The English version
has been presented to Eisenhower
and Churchill, but the makers say
they have no plans for giving the
Russian model to Khrushchev.
On the practical side, there IS a
Ieft-handed watch with the dial re-
yersed, upside-down fob watches
for nurses, and braille watches,
some with alarm mechanism, for
under SO. Importers usually do
not take profit on the watches for
the blind.
American import tax adds an av-
erage of so per cent to the price
of Swiss watches.

Credit For Small
Business Men

Malu. street, u. =. A, IS getting
big boost from the work of a
government agency whose job it is
to help small business men.
According to figures released this
week by William H. Harnan, reg
ional director of the u. S. Small
Business Administration office in
Philadelphia which serves Della
ware, the agency has loaned near
ly $90,000,000 to small firms in
towns and rural communities all
around the country.
Between July 1859 and April of
this year, total of $4,000 worth
of credit has been made available
to businessmen serving mainly ru-
raj areas in this region, Mr.. Har-
man reported.
The Small Business Administra-
ton started operations in 1853 with
a mandate from Congress to help
small firms maintain their place
in today's highly competitive econ
omy.
SBA loans average about $4,000
each, with an average six-year ma
turity and an interest rate of 512
per cent. Local banks, many of
them in towns and small cities,
participate in about two-thirds of
these loans.
Just about every type Of busi-
ness, from abattoirs to zinc wire
manufacturers have benefited from
the agency's credit program.
Some typical loans approved re-
Gently, according to Mr.. Harman,
include:
10000 dollars in working capi-
tai to a firm manufacturing boys
clothing.
Participation with a local bank
in a 40,000-dollar loan to small
furniture company to finance a
new building.
$4,000 dollars to an automobile
dealer for working capital. This
loan, in which SBA cooperated
with a local bank, enabled the
small businessman to keep 18 en-
ployees on the payroll.
Mr.. Harman emphasized that his
agency does not compete with local
bankers. In twO-thirds of the cases
the SBA loan or guarantee prompt
ed a local banker to exten credit
also.
Besides helping individual bus
inessmen, the agency has whole
arsenal of other programs that can
boost the economy of towns serv-
ing farming areas.
Recently inaugurated is a pro-
gram to aid local small business
investment companies. The SBA IL
censes, finances and regulates these
privately owned companies which
extend credit to small firms.
The agency also helps state and
local development companies f.
nance plants in the community.
A long list of educational and
technical" services back up the
credit side of SBA's operation For
example, SBA experts will assist
community leaders in deciding
whether local businesses can ex-
pand. They'll help small firms
qualify for government contracts,
improve their operations, and
learn of new research develop
ments.
The agency even finances man.
agement training at local schools
for businessmen.
1t all adds up to a practical,
down-tO-earth program to streng-
then the position of small business
men in the nations economy.

ton on the work of the Small
Business Administration by writ

Building, 1915 Chestnut Street,

DIFFERENCE OF OPINION

Republican Party chairman in
Oregon, it was found that 757

lots. But 2,4O6 voters divided their
support among 754 others.
