West Germany. Germany, which will not be represented, puC
will be present in all but fact at the summit meeting, strongly
endorses the French position.
England is at the other extreme. She desires some steps
toward easing of world tension even if it becomes necessary to
make risky concessions in the hope that Russia WI 1oAoW WIN
concessions of her own.
The United States appears to be standing squarely in the
middle on the matter of negotiations with Russia. Washington
takes the reasonable view that compromises may become neces"
sary and is willing to support some of them provided that they
are not all oneSded.
The problem is to hold the western alliance together during
Russias expected effort to split it.
I'D TRADING STAMPS-Some smart government bureaucrat
has come up with the idea of the year and Washington is putting
it into effect.
The government has issued a new directive to drivers Of fed
eral vehicles ordering them to turn over any trading stamps
they may acquire in the course Of buying gasoline and oil for
government vehicles.
At least 100000 government people drive cars, trucks, motor
cycles and other vehicles on official business.
There is no way of telling how many of these Return
drivers trade at service stations which give
stamps along with their sales, nor is there any
way to assure that such stamps would be turned SfampsI
back to the government.
In any event, this stroke of genius by some economyminded
official probably will cost the government more money than it
can retrieve by turning the stamps back for cash.
% 1t is not hard to envision a situation in which departments will
have to hire or assign help to the ful-time job of collecting,
counting and turning in the trading stamps. This opens UP AN
entirely new field Of federal endeavor, and, considering the vast
tains the seeds from which whole government agencies grow.

able on M-Day a larger number
of enlisted specialists than was re-
quired by the peacetime army.
Upon United States entry into
World War I in 1917, all Reservists
were transferred to the active army.
The National Defense Act of 1920
created the organized Reserve
Corps which included the ORC
and the ERC. There were no major
changes in this structure until the
reorganization that followed World
War II. In July 1852 the Army Re
serve came into exiStance as we
know it today. Like the Army Ma
tional Guard, it has the same
general troop units as the Active
Army.
Under the present reorganization
plans, some 1900 USAR Units with
a drill pay strength of approxim-
ately 100000 will constitute the
Army Reserve structure. Some
zoe, 900 other Ready Reservists will
be assigned to control groups,
available for rapid mobilization as
requirements to reinforce and
roundout the Active Army, Army
National Guard, Army Reserve
and to organize Army of the United
States Units in case of an emer-
gency.
Approximately 1910 individual
members of the Army Reserve are
currently assigned as mobilization
deSigneeS. In case of mobilization,
these highly trained pre-selected
individuals will fill specified key
augmentation positions in head
quarters, department of the Army,
within continental United States,
and overseas commands. Mobiliza-
ton designeeS take two weeks of
active duty for training each year
in their respective assignments.
Participate in approved training
assemblies or attend USAR
Schools.
In addition to the unit training
in the Army Reserve, individual
members may attend USAR
Schools, which are operated ir
many areas. Members of the Army
Reserve and National Guard may
further their military training by
taking various school correspond
ence courses, nearly all of which

BY GARRY CLEVELAND MYERS. Ph.p.

SOME years ago when the
practice of "reminiscences with
young children was launched on
the advice of a few pediatri-
clans, many mothers welcomed
it as a grand and glorious way.
Just take up baby when he cries,
feed him when you think he's
hungry, no more worries, many
mothers supposed. This was
then called demand feeding.
But in recent years, many Of
these mothers have become dis
illusioned. They have no time
they can call their own. Some of
their infants, turning days to
nights, are demanding food
many times arond the clock, "a
hours a day; and a lot of these
youngsters don't choose a sched-
ule on their own account for
months or years.
New Term
So the prophets of demand
feeding, wishing to remove the
onus of this term, have invent
ed a more acceptable one-"per-
missive feeding.
Gradually they have come to
advise "permissive feeding" dur
ing the infants first few weeks,
with the assurance that he will,
with a little assistance by the
mother, gradually adapt himself
to a somewhat flexible sched-
ule soon thereafter; and this
plan seems to make some sense.
But mothers also have been led
to suppose that if the infant
hasn't helped to derive a sched-
ule by the time he is several
months of age or older, there is
nothing to worry about.
False Advice
Along with the delightful re-
lease of the mother from worry
over schedules for the child be-
fore he is 18 months or two
years of age, has arisen another
assurance: Don't worry if he
doesn't choose to eat a balanced
diet. Jut keep offering him
what he should eat and, If he
doesn't want some of it, give
him something else he will like.
If he doesn't want any meat,
give him substitutes in fish,
cheese and the like to provide

u. S. Army Recruiting Service

Did you know the Army Reserve
was a newcomer on the National
Defense scene, as it is known to-
day. In one form or another it has
been operative since early in the
century, but it was not until 1912
that Congree established the re-
serve.
At that time two classes of re-
serves were established: enlisted
men of the active army who were
furloughed to the Reserve after a
certain period of Active Duty, and
enlisted men discharged honorably
who volunteered to enlist in the
Reserve.
The National Defense Act of
1916 established an Officers Re
serve (ORC) and an Enlisted Re-
serve Corps (ERE). The announced
purpose was to provide a reserve
of officers for military service
when needed, and to make avail

PATIENCE ON CUBA

The United States will continue
its attitude of patience toward the
Cuban Government of Premier
Fidel Castro. This became known
after President Eisenhower had
considered the deterirating Unit

recent White House conference.
The United States, it was
understood, will do nothing to
build up a crisis and will threaten
no economic sanctions, such as
reducing Cuba'S quota in the

Nixon apparently mixed all
these ideas. Instead he described
himself as leader of the "cen-
struetive opposition" and served
notice that he wanted to reserve
for himself the role of critic of
the new administration.
This is a role which Nixon
finds comfortable. His reputa-
ton was established as an

ticularly as a destroyer" of
political regulations. When he
tried to shift roles - when he

Considering the shoddy CAM
paign he ran and how close he
came to victory, it would be q
mistake on any Democrats. part
to underestimate Nixon in the
role he has chosen for himself.
l have no doubt he will be a
very tough opponent. If there
is any sign of "complacency" in
the new Administration. or
"appeasement," Nixon will be
certain to point it out.
There is now talk of putting
one or two non-Nixon Republi-
cans in the new Cabinet. The
names of Douglas Dillon for
Secretary of State, as well as
Robert Lovett and John McCloy
of the Chase Manhattan Bank,
continue to attract the most at
tention.
1t would be a virtual repudia-.
ton of all his campaign criti-
cism of inept handling of foreign
affairs if Kennedy were to
name Dillon, an Eisenhower
carry-over. But Lovett and Me-
Cloy would both be welcome
additions to anyone's cabinet,
although not necessarily as Sec
rotary of State.
What makes it all so difficult
is that the whole gesture of BIZ
partisanship will be lost if Nix
on says that Lovett, McCloy or
other Eastern Republicans are
unacceptable.
Strange as it may seem, what
we are likely to see in the next
four years is a defeated candi-
date for President possessing

just the ticket. He was fighting
the Capone mob on two fronts.
The CapOnes were trying to take
over his beer business aleng
with some unions whose treas
urers were friends Of Touhy's.
Teuhy, said Judge Barnes, was
the only obstacle between Ca
pone and the unions. And the
relationship between the state
attorney and the Capones was
such, said the judge, that dur
ing the entire period that Court
ney was in office, no syndicate

Courtney, incidentally, is now

So several people had reason
then and later to want Touhy
dead. And as long as he was in
prison-his sentences added up
to 298 years-he was dead. But
parole gave him a chance. He
was only sixty-one, and his
twenty-five years of fighting
his case had kept him marvel
eusly spry.
AS it happens, Jake the Bar
Der was in Chicago the night
of the murder. At the fatal in
slant he was in the company of
a government tax accountant;
Jake used to be big gambler
and he has income-tax trouble.

tate, he keeps the rain off in

lice Captain Emeritus Dan Gill

Man now. He is presently en-
gagged in real estate. Back in
1850 Dan had almost stolen
home on the Democratic ticket
for sheriff when the Chicago
Sun Times discovered that he
had paid taxes on an income Of
$4,000 although his salary was
only $4,000. OF course some of
the people who had wanted
Touhy dead were dead them
selves. Capone, for one. Ca
pone had heirs and assigns, but
