To EquuIize Pay

The House Armed Services Commit
tee has made a commendable move to
correct an injustice done some 114,0OO
retired officers and enlisted men by
provision of the 1858 Military Pay Act.
In approving bill to restore for these
retirees the traditional proportional
relationship between active duty and
retired pay scales, the committee has
recognized the unfairness of creating
what has logically been called an
inferior retired list"
The proposed legislation, recon-
mended by President Eisenhower, would
cancel clause of the 1850 law which
gave military personnel retiring before
June /, 1858, a smaller pay increase than
that granted officers and men retiring
after that date. We hope Congress will
take the advice of the committee and
eliminate the senseleSS discriminatory
provision regarding retired pay.

No FooIinq?;

We motorists have been frustrated
so many times by the on-again off-again
pledges of the Park Service to extend
the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway
around the Zoo that there is good reason
to be somewhat skittiSh about raising
our hopes again. But the urge is ire
siStible. So let us take the bait one more
time-hook, line and Sinker.
The parkway, as is we'll known,
starts at the Lincoln Memorial and ends
rather abruptly at the Rock Creek ford
(mostly cloSed) at the south end of the
Zoo. Once upon time-a time almost
beyond the memory of man-the plan
nerS and the park people got together
and agreed on high-priority scheme
to extend the lovely and well-traveled
drive around the east side of the Zoo
and along the edge of the park to
connect with Colorado avenue and
Sixteenth street NV. Once, the Park
Service even obtained appropriations
for the work. But Zoo officials, who
feared the project would unnerve the

animals, objected. So the idea was
Shelved and the money was lost. The
news which once again has raised
our hopes is that everyone's nerves now
are soothed, and that the extension
finally will be tunneled through Zoo
property with eventual space for four
lanes, we hope) and built at least far
enough north to bypass the two trouble
some Zoo fords and connect with Beach
drive.
This, to be sure, falls short of the
initial proposition. But it is something,
and Washington motorists should be
grateful. In a few years, if all goes well,
the quiet beauty of Rock Greek Park will
give thousands of US new-found enjoy
ment on the trip outward from the city
and with summer coming on, that's a
prospect to relish indeed.

Message for Today

This Easter Monday of 1860 seems
to be an unusually appropriate day to
compose message to our friends and
neighborS from all over these fine United
States. It is, in brief, that everything
not only is in pretty good shape but also
pretty much normal in their National
Capital
Take the cherry blossoms, for ex-
ample. This years display has been one
OF the best. And if we say something
like this nearly every year, it is only
because we want our thousands of visit
orS to feel that even nature has CO.
operated in dressing the Capital City in
its lovelieSt garments just to welcome
them. For this, incidentally, the wealth
erman is entitled to complimentary
round of applause. Back in March, the
Weatherman was being a little bit un-
reasonable. After pampering us through
earlier winter months, he passed out
some pretty bitter StuR for few weeks.
Few of his critics were understanding
enough to realize that he was merely
setting things up for later -than-uSual
EaSter-holding back the cherry buds
until the most people could get here to
see the blooms.
All of this helped our picketing bus
ineSS, too. Actually, picketing is sort
of year-round attraction here. But like
actors inspired by full house, picketS
also have that extra elan when the au-
dience is large and fresh. And, by the
way, this years Easter week end picket
ing tells lot about the wide range of
interests that we deal with currently in
Washington. One group, for example,
picketed the White House president Eli
senhower was away in protest against
segregation in the South. Another
picketed the Internal Revenue Service
Commissioner Latham also was aWay)
against paying taxes for war. There was
even one-man picketing project di-
rected against our messing around too
much in outer space. Some of the pick
cts even changed teams" during the
week end, like ball players.
And speaking of ball players, they
also showed up during the week end for
the big event today at Griff1th Stadium.
Our expert observers say the team is in
good shape"-and this is normal, too,
for this time of year. So are the colored
eggs on the White House lawn, and the
"lost" parents. In short, little rain in
cluded, everything is just as it should be
here and we are happy that so many
folks from somewhere else can be around
to enjoy it.

Candidates ReIiqion

AS with respect to other
issues, it may be helpful to
consider basic principles as
we weigh the issue whether
religion should be a factor in
the selection of a President.
There will probably be
agreement that all of a can
didate's qualities, abilities,
associations, attributes. ETC.,
are relevant, especially as
they may affect his perform
ance in office.
Then, very briefly, the
question is, to what extent
will a candidates religion and
his observance of that reli-
gion and its discipline affect
his performance in office?
We can for the present
await the marshaling of
evidence pro and con with
respect to various candidates,
and leave judgments to be
made on the basis of such
evidence. Whether or not
such an approach will lead
voters to support candidates

The vote of the House Appropria-
tions Committee to provide S72 million
Tor three important new Federal Office
buildings in Washington is a gratifying
break In the clouds which recently have
cast such pail over the. tagging Federal
construction program here.
We are particularly pleased about
the approval of two of the projects-a
new home for the Civil Service Com
mission in the Northwest and a larger
structure to house air and space agencies
In the Southwest redevelopment area.
Plans for these are complete, or nearly
so, and their sites are available. Con-
greSSlonal concurrence with the commit
tee action could assure a start of con-
Struction this year, with a consequent
removal OF some of our most disrep-
utaole and inefficient tempo eyeSoreS.
The third project-a combined Court of
Claims and Court of Customs and Patent
AppealS-iS further down the GSA pri-
orlty list. A good number of planning
and site details for this building will
have to be worked out before bricks can
be laid.
One additional hurdle meanwhile,
still needs to be overcome This is a
new provision of law which requires that
the House and Senate Public Works
Committees also must indorSe the
projects. In the case of the Civil Service
and air agency buildings, approval
already has been given by these COM
mitteeS in past years Their reindorse-
ment now should be no more than
perfunctory matter.
Chairman Albert Thomas of Texas,
chairman of the House Appropriations
Subcommittee, might we'll have seized
upon the technicality that the works
groups had not yet acted as an excuse
to withhold construction funds this year.
He has provided a substantial service
to the Nations Capital by not doing so.
in the reasonable expectation that the
Public Works Committees will perform
their part of the job soon. We hope that
they do so Immediately.

Our Economy and Theirs

IN MS aooreSS TO the Virginia State
Chamber of Commerce, UnderSecretary
OF State c. Douglas Dillon has once again
spoken some warning words about the
Soviet Unions drive to overtake and
surpaSS the United States as the worlds
leading economic power.
At present, with its industrial pro-
duction expanding each year by about 8
per cent as compared to our 4 per cent,
RuSSia's economy is growing at rate
roughly twice that of ours. Accordingly,
recalling Premier KhruShchev's gran
dloSe promise to make the USSR eco
nom1cally Supreme-with the highest
living standards-by 1870, Mr.. Dillon has
had this to say: "It will, of course, take
the SovietS many years to make good
that boast. But catch up they will
unless We bestir ourselves. We cannot
afford to be complacent, especially when
we reflect that with an annual gross
product Of only As per cent of our own,
the SovietS are able to match our mill
tary capacity"
There is nothing astonishing or
magical, however, about the Kremlin's
achievement in building up great armed
power. The job has been done through
harsh dictatorial measures and a cruel
concentration on heavy output of a type
that has left the country acutely short
of things like decent housing and con-
Sumer goods That is why the Russian
people must put up with such facts as
the following: (D Soviet production of
automobiles, washing machines, refrig-
orators, ETC., ranges between only and
per cent of ours. (2) The average FAM
lily Of four in Soviet cities must be con-
tent with a total dwelling space no
greater than a medium sized American
bedroom. And 90 while tenth of our
labor force grows a superabundance of
food approximately half the entire So
Wet working population is needed to
provide meager and dull national diet
in which good beef, for example is a
relative rarity.
These facts suggest that Mr.. Dillon
has underStated the case in declaring
that it will take many years" for the
USSR to catch up with us in terms of
giving the Soviet people a standard of
living comparable to ours Actually. in
the opinion Of many economists, Premier
KhruShchev's boast is fantastic-beyond
the possibility of fulf1llment by 1870 or
1880, If ever. Meanwhile, considering
the relative development of our economy
and theirs it is not surprising that the
Russians, who still lag far behind us,
are expanding production at an annual
rate of per cent as against our per
cent.
If this means that Soviet consumers
are now going to get decent break, all
well and good. Certainly, although it
can be misused for dangerous subversive
operations in underdeveloped lands,
there is nothing deplorable, per Sc, in
Russia'S economic growth Nor need we
be fearful of it as long as we remain
adequately armed and continue to main
tain our own productivity at realistic
pace--a pace likely to keep us in the
economic lead for long, long time to
come.

Tottered HERITAGE

Representative John Hart
has asked the South Carolina
Legislature to withdraw the
States 1868 ratification of
the Fourteenth Amendment
to the Constitution. But what
are the States to do about
the usurpation of powers un-
der other amendments to the
Constitution-the First, the
Fourth, the Ninth and the
Tenth?
This is what our fore
fathers had to say: when a
long train of abuses and uSur-
pations, pursuing invariably
the same object, evinces a
design to reduce them under
absolute despotism, it is their
right, it is their duty to
throw off such government
and to provide new guards
for their future security"
Our people have already
suffered a far greater train
of abuses than did their an
cestors when they threw off
the yoke of the British
Crown. The Constitution to-
day means only what FIVE
men sitting at a given
moment want it to mean.
Heretofore, the Constitution,
which is a compact between
the States and the Federal
Government, has been con-
sidered inviolate. The mean
ing of a written instrument
does not alter. That which it
meant when adopted it
means now. If it can be
broken at will, it is no longer
a binding instrument, but a
scrap Of paper.

Therefore, if they cannot be

separate, and let each State

Analytical View of Defense Debate

The citizen should under
stand the conflicting basic
concepts which create the
arguments in the current de-
fense debate.
The electronic nuclear
phase of the industrial revo-
luton has cast doubt on the
classic theory of war but
no substitute has been ade-
quately expressed. Therefore,
many persons are so fasci-
mated by technology that
they neglect many vital as
poets of the question.
One group believes that
technology has made history
irrelevant to the military
problem.
Others believe that history
reveals continuing patterns
of thought and behavior, that
chronological factors equal
ize and that the determining
factors are the intellectual
ability of command and the
unity and purpose of the
Nation.
Some believe that we have
a specific war which can be
definitively lost or won. This
view emphasizes weapon sta
tiSticS.
Others believe that we
must deal with the entire
spectrum of human conflict
in which violence and de-
struction play important
parts; while through foolish
ness we can be destroyed in
this conflict, we cannot

Knocks City Heads

I have been a citizen 60
Of Washington, D. c., practi-
cally all my life, and am
proud to be called a Wash
ingtonian.
During that time, I have
seen a lot of Commissioners
come and go, and I can't
help but feel that the ones
we have now are the most
picayunish, piddling and pro-
crastinating of the lot.
What have they done for
us run-of-the-mill, hard
working citizens of this city
except raise our taxes? At
most everything they have
done has been for Virginians
and Marylanders who come
into our city, take our best
jobs, and then scoot back to
the suburbs to spend their
pay and pay their taxes,
while they thumb their nose
at us poor dumb Washing
tonianS.
While the roads that take
these local parasites in and
out Of town are being made
the best in the world, look
at our side streets. All beat
up and full of chuck holes.
While Virginians and
Marylanders grab our best
paying jobs, eur unemploy-
ment increases and our char
ity rolls climb higher. Also
our jailS get fuller and fuller,
and our public services worse
and worse. 1t takes forever to
get a license for anything
that you want to sell, build
or repair, and the Commits
sionerS brag about how eff
cient these drones are.
They make a lot of high
faluting statements about
making Washington such a
wonderful city, but they let
the backstreet neighborhoods
go from bad to worse. Whole
rows of buildings are torn
down over peoples heads.
They want to help the COL

but in fact they leave them
prey to real estate "shysters"
and "fast-buck" operators.

faulty organization is the

Another group believes that
while our defense organiza-
tion is not perfect, preoc-

tends to obscure more i'm

Obviously, no Secretary of
Defense will prepare a set of
formal concepts and then
simply by logic draw up the
perfect defense system. HUI
man affairs are too complex
and elusive for such a pc
dantic approach.
The situation is further
complicated by the drive for
personal and group power
and prestige, a fundamental
human attribute found in
every walk of life. No theory,
no organization will ever
eliminate it. To kill it would
be to kill part of the vitality,
purpose and morale essen
tial to human progress. How

are sound, we can control
this drive and moderate it's
harm. If our concepts are
inadequate, this drive will

A. No. The heir apparent
is one who has legal right Of
succession II he outlives the
king or queen who holds the
throne. An heir presumptive
is one who will succeed to
the throne only if there is no

Seldom does one hear ex-

broad concepts are evident.
One group apparently

the greater the destructive

THIS AND THAT
By CHARLES E. TRACEWELL

Frenchman has written sew
eral books about it.
Temp Jones found a bat
on a seventh floor window
ledge of the old Star building.
He, too, was amazed at the
appeal of the little face.
People standing around, as
people standing around sl-
ways do, warned him against
touching the bat.
They sometimes are
rabid," said one.
Jones couldn't see the
slightest rabid look about the
small brown creature lying
there with its mouth open.
He found a cardboard box.
punched holes in it, and
placed the bat inside. The
creature made no attempt to
bite him.
Jones put the bat on his
desk, and made a sign to put
on it.
Brown Bat" he wrote.
He thought this would keep
people off. and it did.
Once he brought a beauti-
full poison ivy plant down to
the Office in a small pot. The
plant was just 2 inches high,
and very pretty.
Jones got a big label, and
wrote on it, Poison Ivy"
Nobody touched his plant.
\
When evening came. Tenn
peton Jones gathered up his
paper and his boxed bat, and
went out to his bus.
Have you ever taken a bat
home on a bus?
Jones wondered what would
happen if he let the creature
out. He could hear it NOV
ing around a little, every now
and then.
He turned his label side
ways, so that no nervous per-
son could see it.
When he got home, he put
the bat in the fork Of a big
lilac bush.
Next morning, it was gone.
