Historically, prime purpose
of military preparedness has been
to enable nation to fight back
when attacked. A nation wanted
to defend itself, to battle through
to victory.
In today's world, however, the
only possible function of military
preparedness is to prevent war
without losing those things for
which a nation would have
fought in the past. For the mo-
ment war breaks out, no matter
how complete the military pre-

THEATRE
BY
Cyrus Adler
AT THE DROP OF A HAT

A dubious, bearded man in a
wheel chair and a bespeckled pi-
anist talk wittily and sing silly
songs. In their attempt to root
out the middleman" by bringing
their songs directly to a grateful
public the lyricist Michel Flan-
ders and pianist Donald Swami
cause much laughter.
In writing about theatre | try
to ignore actors and producers.
The production should be merely
the vehicle for the works ideas
and like banana skin, be dis
carded after the fruit has been
eaten. But the evenings farrago
of words and songs cannot be
separated from its performers.
The delightful production was re-
hearsed so smoothly it came off
with complete spontaneity. The
two Englishmen deserve plaudlts
for their funny, though not par
ticularly, deep quips on life
among the humans.
The pieces ranged from Repro
duction; modern comment on
those who CATER decibels of high
fidelity equipment into small
flats, to clever bit on the life
of a London omnibus. This prob
ablv evaded the suburbanite au-
dience who have never been near
a double-decker bus. Then
Flanders sang touchingly about
the social troubles OF a lady
warthog at the animal ball. The
twelve year old behind me roar
ed at the lady's heartache A
piece on seasickness raised a tit
ter as Flanders mobile face went
through the contortions that
! would beset a landlubber in an
open boat in rough waters.
One of the most successful skits
involved fanciful reenactment
of the writing of Greensleeves.
It abounds in puns and literary
references and suggests that
Henry VIII was its author. To be
appreciated it must be heard and
the Englishmen have thoughtful-
ly waxed an album.
What | missed was more satlr-
zeal comments on the problems OF
our day. Flanders skirted IN this
direction with:
Russia is red, dilly, dilly;
England is green.
They have the moon, dilly,
dilly;
We have the queen.
And his suggestion that If the
world leaders were to take a hot

New Postal Plan
Includes Garrett

The expansion of the Washing
ton Metropolitan postal area hail
transportation and distribution
plan, by the addition of three coun-
ties in Maryland, seven counties
of Virginia, nine counties of West
Virginia and twenty-five postofficeS
in three counties of Pennsylvania
was announced this week by Nj.
R. Clarke, regional operations di-
rector of fthe Washington region
of the post office department.
This expansion will provide next
day delivery of first class mail
for 100000 people throughout the
additional 22-county, 5000 square
mile area
This program for better first
class mail service has been in test
operation in the Washington area
since February %. Clark said that
barring occasional human errors,
first-class letters mailed prior to
5 p. m, or at smaller offices, in
time for the final dispatch, if made
prior to 5 p. M, would be deliv-
cred to their destinations within
the plan area on the first delivery
trips of the following business day.
The expansion plan includes AL
legany, Garrett and Washington
counties in Maryland.
Clark pointed out that the popu-
lation of the area was growing
rapidly and its postal service needs
were becoming increasingly COM
pick. On an average day some l.
100000 pieces Of first class mail are
handled between the 597 area post
offices.
Principal feature of the new
plan involves the designation of
certain strategically located post
offices to act as collection and dis
tribution centers. Cumberland and
Hagerstown are two of those so
designated.
Some new transportation routes
are included in the changes. Donald
NJ Browning, Oakland postmaster,
pointed out that all collection
boxes located in Oakland were
empticd each day at 5 p m, Mon
day through Saturday, and dis
patched in time for next day de-
livery with the metropolitan area.
He asked that large amounts of
mail not be dropped into collection
boxes but be taken to the post
office instead.
He also asked that the o'clock
mail habit be eliminated as much
as possible SO that there will not be
that last minute rush" He urged
organizations and companies hav-
ing large amounts of mail to mail
early in order to avoid large ac-
cumulations of mail at dispatch
time.
He pointed out that parcels
mailed within the metropolitan area
to Oakland were being received
and delivered to patrons on rural
