$ @ Our youngsters seem to
have absorbed a lot of the
history of World War II,
watching such TV shows as
Victory at Sea and Twentieth
Century. They often ask ques-
tions about unfamiliar words
and expressions. Usually my
husband and I have no trouble
answering them. But tonight
our 11-year-old stymied us
with a very simple question:
What does the D. in 'D-Day'
stand for?" I'll be blessed if I
can find the answer in the
books we have at home. Also,
what does "SS" in the name

What seemed to upset Sena-

belief that exercise Of FTC

Whether you use the "infor-

enforcement of laws passed by
Congress. He said that, when

Mr.. Dixon said today he Il

chairman of the national Civil

said today it can't very well
change plans for the fourth
National Assembly April 11-l2

Asked for comment on a sug-
gestion by Senator Clifford p.

that the assembly should be
shifted on grounds that
Charleston denies equal hospi-
tality to Negroes, Gen. Grant
said:
1--WE were officially invited to
hold the Assembly in Charleston
and we accepted the invitation.
( "It was recommended by the

"It is completely out Of our

they do"
Senator Case had informed
Gen. Grant by telegram that

was withdrawing from planned
participation in the Charleston

The most dramatic de-

veloped. BY applying the money TO surplus com

received made possible the distribution o. $50 worth

This is what happens with the money received

is probably the best bargain Of the year. Needy people

as our sister continent becomes increasingly the target

for Communism to leap, not so much into the United
States, as into Latin America. Therefore, our help is
needed more than ever.
TWENTY-FIVE COUNTRIES in Central and South
America were helped by CRS in 1860. More than five
million people were given over 1874 thousand pounds of

sumption is that at this stage
of the game Professor Liver
nash and his associates prob
ably know a little more about
collective bargaining in the
steel industry than do the ed
itors of Human Events and
the Washington Daily News

1t is only fair to note that
while Professor Livernash and
his associates tend to play
down the impact of recent
steel disputes on the national
economy, they do not say, nor
even imply, that everything
is hunky dory in basic steel.
They explicitly state that labor
