PLAYING WITH FIRE

1t was not so long ago that Mr.. Bulganin
one of the Russian leaders, was quoted as
saying that the United States would become
a socialized state not as the result of outside
forces, but that we would vote ourselves into
that situation.
Anyone who has watched the methods of
many state and federal law makers who fav-
or putting government into tax exempt pro-
jects in competition with exOrbitantly taxed
private citizens and business can see Bull
ganin's prediction working out, not under
the name of socialism, but under the more
dangerous and false title of liberalism-free
wheeling government spending and taxa
ton.
1t must make the Russians chuckle to see
our own politicians playing their game and
our people swallowing the bait.

EDITORS AND THE WELFARE STATE
If some have their way the predicted
federal budget surplus of $4.2 billion will
disappear, and in all probability another de-
ficit will take its place. They would spend
money in virtually limitless amounts on new
or increased welfare state and similar legis-
lation.
They won't, however, have the support
of the nations grassroots editors. The "Am-
erican Press" recently polled a substantial
number of weekly newspaper editors on a
list of current controversial subjects. One
question asked how they'd prefer the bulk
of the budget surplus to be used. The ans
wers: To reduce national debt 80 per cent,
to increase defense expenditures, IL per cent
to lower taxes, Is per cent; for greater social
welfare programs, per cent; for federal
aid to education, per cent.
These editors have seen the gradual de-
velopment of the welfare state in this coun-
try, and realize its destructiveness- only
to our wealth, but to our self-reliance indie
pendence and freedoms. And the great ma
jority want no more of it.

THE "SNORTING SIXTIES"-IF!
"For the Iron Horse the new decade will
be the 'snorting sixties if he is given reas-
enable head" That prediction comes from
the president of the Association of Ameri-
can Railroads.
However, that eff" is a very big one in
deed For to quote him again. the railroads
will only "scrape along if further plagued
with featherbedding, incessant wage infa-
ton, low earnings, capital starvation, tight
regulatory halters, subsidized competition
and repressive tax burdens"
That's really mouthful But it is not an
eXaggeration No industry is in so tight a
straight jacket as the railroads. The unions
demand the continuation, apparently for
ever, of many work rules which are 80 or
more years old and are entirely inconsistent
with present-day operation. The federal gov
ernment, despite some relatively minor re-
forms brought about by the Transportation
Act of 1858, still regulates the industry in
the light of conditions that have vanished
forever. So do states. And the railroads
aggressive competitors are given preferred
treatment all along the line.
No one can say the railroads aren't doing
their best. Since World War ii, they've spent
SIS billion for new plant and equipment-a
sum equalling half their entire net income
during the period. But a starved horse, iron
or other, can't keep up the pace.

SUMMITRY SUBSTITUTES

There is little doubt that Summitry, as
means of solving international disputes, has
received a terrible blow. The roundhouse
punch administered in Paris has certainly
ended the possibility of summit meetings for
some time to come, and it may have been
mortal.
The question then arises as to what shall
be substituted for meetings of heads of state
Two answers come to mind.
The most important substitute for sum-
mitry, and the one which promises best re-
suits, is the process of quiet, patient diplo-
macy by veteran statesmen who need not
operate in the white heat of publicity which
surrounds the heads of state No spectacular
covenants will result, but in this process lies
the chance of working out gradually better
accommodation between East and West.
Another substitute for summitry has
been emphasized by Secretary General Ham,
marskjold of the United Nations. He has
urged the great powers to make maximum
use of the u. N. in an effort to avert pro-
longed cold war crisis. This should be done !;
at least the attempt should be made by the
West, despite the obstacle of the Soviet I'm
ions intranSigence. Better use should be
made of u. N. potentialities. This, coupled
with quiet diplomacy, may yet set us back
on the path toward peace.

INDUSTRY AND THE BOY SCOUTS
One OF the most urgent problems this
country must deal with is the growth of
Juvenile delinquency. And that means that
the Boy Scout movement, more than ever be-
fore, deserves the active, down-to-earth sup
port of everyone. The boy who is inculcated
with Scout training and ideals isn't going to
develop into juvenile gangster.
A leafet issued by the organization re.
ports that thousands of business organiza-
tions are now making Scouting cooperation
part of their community relations pro-
grams. And what is needed is more-much
more-of that kind of help.
The help can be provided in number of
ways Industry can sponsor Scout units
Men can serve as Scoutmasters, advisors, and
in other capacities A business can adopt a
Scout project, and help provide more and bet
ter facilities. Financial support is always
required Scouting exists entirely on vol
unteer funds. And many industries can offer
valuable technical assistance.
The future of American business-like
the future of all other institutions de-
pend on the people who are youngsters today.
An investment in that future is one of the
best that any enterprise or individual can
make.

RumOr?
Mrs. Green, a handsome
woman of so and the mother
of two sons, is being men,
toned as a possible choice
for Secretary of Health, Edu-
cation, and Welfare. if voters
on Tuesday should send
Senator John F. Kennedy,
Democrat of Massachusetts,,
to the White House.. Mrs.
Green shrugs off such talk
as "sheer rumor" and says
her only interest is in being
reelected to a fourth term
in the House, where she re-
presents metropolitan Port
land.
However, Mrs. Green came
out for Kennedy early this
year and her support is cred
tied with helping him win the
Oregon primary. That VIC
tory in turn contributed to
his capturing the Democratic
nomination.
BY training and experience,
she has background for a
HEW cabinet post. A teacher
in the Oregon public schools
for IA years. she has been
active in the Oregon Congress
of Parents and Teachers and
in the Oregon Education
Association. In the House, she
is a member of the Labor and
Education Committee, which
handles legislation affecting
the HEW.
Mrs. Green never lived in
an apartment until coming to
Washington. In Portland, she
has a white, stucco house in
an attractive residential dis
trict near Reed College. 1t is
a house into which she and
her husband moved when
their sons were grown and
they no longer required the
larger home in which they
had been living.
Their present home in Port
land is the third they have
had. They bought their first
home the second year they
were married. It was a brand
new house in Salem, Greg.
When they moved to Portland
they sold it and bought
another.

Portland, Mrs. Green particu-
larly enjoys their patio and

steaks" Like many house.
wives, she apparently is happy
to turn the outdoor cooking
over to him.
In Washington the Greens

To professionals In any f1sld--lawyer doctor
newspaperman or policeman-there's nothing
more irritating than the mistaken ideas Of their
craft as portrayed on TV Since crime Is such
popular TV fare, the policemen watch Them
selves portrayed with something like Mortified
fascination.
One veteran detective cited this blunder as
typical: The wanted criminal is behind the
door. Two detectives close in-one from each
end of the hall. Should the criminal come out
shooting, the two detectives would be shooting
at each other Police, naturally, also don't
relish being portrayed as stupid, inhuman or
unnecessary adjuncts to the genius of q private
eye"
That's why anyone who spends much time
around police headquarters finds The Detectives
