The Army wants its mess
halls to seem more like home.
So it's decided to feed its SOL
diers from glass dinnerware
insted of institution-type trays.
The idea is aimed in part at
providing "a more homellke
atmosphere in enlisted mems
mess halls" an Army statement
said yesterday.
Another objective is to in
crease appetite appeal and
thus get soldiers to waste less
food.
The new dinnerware will be
available in white, with either
a green or burgundy band to
dress it up.
II will include plates, bowls,
cups and saucers, and two sizes
of glass tumblers. Soldiers will
be given plastic serving trays to
carry the chow to their tables.
Funds Sets Timing
There is no target date for
Army-wide conversion to the
new tableware, the Army said.
1t will be up to individual COM
mands to change over when
they have the funds to do so.
The action grows out of
studies started by Maj. Gen.
Webster Anderson, the Army'S
quartermaster general. who
said: .r.
Experience has demonstrated
that use of conventional dinner
ware in lieu of Institutional
type trays is a definite factor
in increasing the soldiers en-
joyment of his meals and rails
ing troop morale"
Apart from this, Gen. Ander-
son said studies have shown
that use of dishes instead of
trays with compartments zap
preciably reduces food waste by
permitting closer portion con-
troll at time of serving"
Is this a bad omen for big
eaters? Not at all, said the
quartermaster general, explain
ing:
This does not mean a soldier
will eat less, but rather that he
will tend to leave less at the
dining table"

A netc, creative factor
There exists at present renewal of artistic
interest which might bring healing element into
our age, creative factor capable of saving many
from anxieties and nervous breakdowns. This is
hopeful. But it remains hopeful only if we really
concentrate on arts higher values and place them
in the foreground for our full and concentrated
attention.
If, instead, we simply treat music and other
forms of art as background" to other activities
desecrate the sacred reducing it to servant of the
profane. In such role it cannot fulfill its mission,

The Civil Service Commission
is expected to recommend to
Congress next year changes in
the Government employe health
insurance program to correct
various inequities.
One involves women employees
who have children and are sep
arated from their husbands.
Under present law, such a
woman who takes a family COW
erage plan has to pay a higher
premium because her husband
even though he is no longer
a part of the family-is des-
ignated as a non-dependent.
Only in cases of divorce are
these women employees not
charged a higher premium rate.
The CSC feels that this situa-
, ton is extremely unfair and
should be corrected.

arated and both have some of

Irwin c. Scarbeck, sentenced
to serve 80 years in prison foi
giving American secrets to
agents of Communist Poland
still has the support of the two
women in his life.
The former diplomat was
sentenced yesterday by District
Court Judge Leonard P. Walsh
to serve the maximum term al
lowed under the Internal Secu.
rity Act.
Provisions of the Federal Law
under which Scarbeck was SEN
fenced give the United States
Board Of Parole discretion to
keep him in prison for the full
80 years, or to free him on
parole at any time before the
term expires.
Bitter resentment was the re-
action of 37-year-old Karen
Scarbeck, wife Of the former
second secretary of the Ameri-
can Embassy in Warsaw, when
she was contacted by the AS
sociated Press at her sisters
home in Dusseldorf, Germany
And shocked surprise was
the reaction of Scarbeck's dark
eyed 23-year-old Polish mis-
tresS, Ursula Discher, when a
Star reporter telephoned her
at her New York hotel.
Affair Led to Blackmail
Testimony at Scarbeck''
three week trial here revealed
it was her affair with the Stocky
. ex-diplomat that led to his
being blackmailed by Polish Sc
cret police, exposed by State
Department security officers
and convicted by a District
Court fury on october q Of
giving the Poles information
from secret documents in the
American Embassy.
Today Mrs. Scarbeck issued
a statement calling the penalty
,'cruel and inhuman beyond
words"
! Her statement said:
It feel that the Judge
did not take into any consid-
eration the mitigating circum-
stances Of this case. For in
stance, the fact that he did not
pass any information directly
affecting the security of the
United States or the fact that
my husband served his country
for 19 years and served it we'll,
as the records show.
: 1T looks to me as If the pro-
baton officer in his report
made outmy husband to be the
worst criminal alive. 1t makes
me wonder whether the word
Justice has any meaning OF
whether we are back in the
Middle Ages when a mans hand

was cut off simply because he
stole a piece Of bread.
Has the Judge ever thought
of the fact that he is depriving
three small children of their
father for life? Has any man
the right to destroy another
mans life simply to set an
example?
II consider this sentence cruel
and inhuman beyond words"
Miss Discher Surprised
Miss Dtscher, speaking in
Polish through an interpreter,
said she feels the sentence was
harsh"
I'm surprised there are laws
in the United States which pro-
vide a 30-year sentence" she
added.
Judge Walsh could have i'm
posed fines of $4,000 in addi-
ton to the prison sentence. But
Scarbeck's lawyer. Samuel c.
Klein, said his client had been
impoverished by suspension
from his State Department job
and from heavy costs of the
trial.
Judge Walsh made it clear
that in handing down the heavy
jail term, he had been swayed
to a major extent by the
thought of deterring others
from taking the same course
Scarbeck took.
And the judge gave little
weight, apparently, to Mr.
Klein's plea that Scarbeck, in
spite of what he had done, is
still "a man who loves his
country" and meant no harm
to American security in Coop
Grating with the Polish Com
munistS.
Defendant Himself Calm
And Miss Discher-repeating
statements she made at the
trial as a Government witness
said Scarbeck "iS the only
man for whom I ever have and
ever will have a deep feeling
and sentiment"
Il love him." she added.
Scarbeck showed no emo
ton himself as the judge ruled
that he must serve three con-
secutive terms of 10 years each
as the aftermath of his con-
viction on three counts in a
four-count indictment charg-
ing violations of the Internal
Security Act between January
/ and May 80 of this year.
Mrs. Scarbeck returned to
Dusseldorf two weeks ago in
order to care for her children
and 70-year-old mother. She
had sat through the entire
trial, smiling bravely at her
husband across the courtroom
