to swim, to enjoy boats of all va

storms as well as the north cas-

Aunt" Nan Wilson taught me TO
watch cloud formations and to
enjoy them and / never see but

The summer Lynne (our four

Why do these firms allocate
large sums for All? A look at the
report reveals the following rea-
sons given by business officials:
1--WE support All because,
like most forward-looking bust
nesses, we have found that
through cooperation with All
Club members and leaders,
better understanding is devel-
oped between industry and agri-
culture. This cannot help but
strengthen and build an ever
better America"
''The All program emphasizes

become more useful citizens, we
feel it is a sound investment"
The record of continuous sup
port given by industry is in it.

says the Committees director,

to $1,000 each. Seven former

Excessive wearing of high
heeled shoes causes a short
ening of the calf muscles, re-
sulting in uncomfortable pain
in the feet and legs when a
sudden change to low heels
is made.
Minor foot blemishes can
become troublesome if they
are ignored. At the first sign
of a corn, callous or blister
apply a cushioning, protec-
tive pad on the irritated area.
Although toenails need the
same amount of care as fin
gernails, they should be cut
straight across, never curved,
to prevent them from becom-
ing ingrown. Never dig a
nail-cutting implement into
the sides of the toes.
A little care will go a long
way toward curbing these UNI
healthy foot habits, and Foot
Comfort Week is the perfect
time to start.

ACE OF ACES

The ace of aces, among fighter pilots,
recently said he thought there would al
ways be a need for manned interceptors.
This is contrary to the generally agreed
upon philosophy in the United States arm
ed services, where emphasis is being placed
on rockets and missiles.
Colonel Erich Hartman, top ace of the
Luftwaffe visiting the Air Force Academy
near Colorado Springs recently, was asked
about the future of manned interceptors
He expressed the belief they would always
be able to do better job than unnamed
rockets and missiles in some phases of aer-
ial operations.
While the age ahead is the rocket and
missiles age, it may be found preferable to
launch these new means of destruction from
manned aircraft or rockets of some kind.
And if we are able to orbit sizable stations
circling the earth, manned travel between
these space stations and the earth may re
quire the fastest and best manned rocket
aircraft possible.
The great weight of expert opinion is
against Colonel Hartman, of the new Ger
man Air Force. But he has rendered SER
vice in disagreeing with the great body OF
world opinion on this question. There is
chance he is right and that we will be
needing manned interceptors for many
more years to come.
What makes his opinion worthwhile, a.
mong other things, is that he is the great
est air ace of all time. He is credited with
having destroyed 352 enemy planes In Wor-
Id War H. One would say, on the basis of
this alone, that he must know some of the
elemental and rudimentary tricks of the
trade, not to mention having some tactical
and strategic insight.

SUNBURN CAN BE FATAL

Looking around us, we see many of our
fellow citizens in various degrees of "tan-
ming" This brings to mind the death, few
years ago, of a twenty -four-year-old man in
another state, due to sunburn, and the recol-
lection of such tragedy should serve to
warn all persons, and especially fair-skin-
ned people. that it can be dangerous to ex-
pose oneself unduly to the rays of the sun.
1t is not always the brightness of the
sun that causes fatal burns. On slightly ov-
ercast days the solar rays can filter through
and be as powerful as the bright sunlight.
We do not know too much about the rays
of the sun other than that they are extreme
ly powerful. Some patients are exposed to
the rays of the sun for treatment especial
ly tuberculosis Victims but it is safe to as
sumo that if beneficial results can be Sc
cured, there is the possibility of harmful
effects.
We do not go into the question of pig
mentation, which explains why some people
are easily sunburned and others are not
1t is we'll for everyone to be temperate in
exposure until well-tanned.

A WISE REVERSAL

Washington's decision to cooperate with
Canada in that country's mammoth sale OF
what TO Communist China came hard. The
decision was not simple one. The federal
trading with the enemy act was involved,
but so was the relationship between the
United States and Canada.
1t had appeared that Canada'S sale of
wheat to Red China would be blocked by
refusal of the United States to export the
grain pumps necessary to unload the ships.
Though the embargo was not directed prl-
marily against Canada, Canadians were in
censed Prime Minister Diefenbaker declar-
ed that if necessary the machinery needed
to cOnsummate the grain sale would be
manufactured in Canada to circumvent the
US. ban. Had this been done, us. Cana
dian relations would have suffered.
1t was this consideration, apparently,
that persuaded the President and his adj
visers to reverse the order banning ship
ment of American made grain pumps to
Canada American authorities wisely decid-
ed that the Importance of maintaining good
relations with Canada outweighed the
need to adhere strictly to the letter of our
legal ban on deals with enemy nations.
Another consideration is involved. The
new decision prevents our being cast as
villain as a wealthy land thwarting the
flow of food stuffs into a country where
famine is widespread. Though China is a
cold war enemy, and though its internal
collapse would reduce the threat of Com
munist aggression, we cannot afford such
a role. The Communists will not thank us
for this contribution to the relief of hunger
but it is good that the contribution has
(albeit somewhat reluctantly been made.

THE QUEST FOR WATER
Because our times are so eventful, it
would be easy for Americans to give too
little attention to the urgent problems of
water supply. Yet an abundance of water,
for domestic, farm and industrial use is of
fundamental Importance.
DR.. Frank j. WEIGH, assistant secretary
of agriculture, focused on this matter re-
Gently when he noted that some $500 Of
Americas small watersheds need corrective
work and nearly 300 million crop acres
need land use control. AS Welch pointed
out, though most people think of water
in terms of drinking and washing, so per
cent Of the nations available water supply
is used in agriculture. Industry consumes
another 40 per cent. Domestic use accounts
for only 10 per cent.
These relationships are important be-
cause they have a direct bearing on what
is done about maintaining and increasing
water supplies. DR.. WEIGH noted five ways
of doing this: inter-regional transfer of
water, discrimination, exploitation of deep
lying sources, weather control and better
land management. Doubtless all these me-
thods will have to be employed if the wat
er supply problem is to be licked.

SLOW UP-LEARN TO RELAX


Modern life has its complication. 1t pro-
ceeds at a very rapid pace. With the air
plane anhiliating distance, the radio and
television bringing instantaneous reports on
events, and other characteristics of our pres
ent-day living, the human body and mind is
called upon to adjust itself to faster tenn
po than ever before.
Bewilderment, as problems loom up for
solution, worry and anxiety over success or
failure of this or that project, the steady
straining and grind of business in an effort
to acquire more and have every available
comfort-all these things add to the ner-
vous strain of the human being.
Most of us should cultivate the philoso-
ply of taking things easy The high ten
sion of routine is taking terrific toll of our
professional men.
Probably the best antidote for the strain
of life is a good sense Of humor There are
many humorous things in life, and you car
laugh whether you win or lose, succeed OF
fail. To do so means a longer life and 6
better chance to reverse your errors.
