the United States view and the facts as
Americans see them. Washington
considers it fair statement Of our con-
cern over Canadian hesitancy to face
the nuclear issue squarely.
Perhaps the issue had to come to I,
head. On the other hand, it is very easy
to do irreparable harm to the u. s.
Canadian relationship by careless din
lomacy and Washington-a the power
full pardner must be the one to ex-
hibit restraint. There is no fear that
Canada will attempt to take over the
United States or interfere in our for
eign policy or domestic policies.
For that reason, as with the coun-
tries to the south of US, the United
States must always be as soft-sroken
as possible of the size of the
stick we carry.

Why Russia Fears Germany

One of the keys to the present world
situation is the fear of the Russian
Government of another rearmed and
unified Germany. 1t is not hard to un-
derstand this Russian fear, if one is
familiar with history.
In World World l, Germany defeated
Russia even while fighting the other
allies, and total Russian casualties in
this war, included dead, wounded, miss
ing. and prisoners of war were $780,
O00-76.3 per cent of Rusisa's total
forces!
In World War | Germany suffered
fewer casualties than that on all fronts,
and against all enemies.
In World War III, Russia suffered
100000 battle deaths alone in de-
Tending itself against Germany Ger
many suffered 3,5OO,OOO battle deaths
in the entire war on all fronts. Thus
once again, though Germany lost both
wars, Russian losses were heavier by
far than Germany's.

meddling in European affairs. A re

Canada And The U.S..

The relationship between the United
States and Canada has been an exam
plary one in this century but the recent
tiff between Secretary of State Dean
Rusk and the Canadian Prime Minister,
John G. Diefenbacker, points up the ira
ditienal fear of Canadians that the Uni
ted States will attempt to dominate
Canada.
Perhaps this small movement and
sentiment and the traditional fear Of
strong United States combine to make
Canadians sensitive on this subject.
And when a rather sharp statement is
made, such as that by Secretary Of
State Rusk recently, criticizing Canada,
resentment is automatic.
Rusk could have been more diplo-
matte in the manner Of handling his
case, but he was generally expressing
Milford chronicle., 1963-03-22
kennedy's Strike Proposal

is that it is further concentration Of
power in the Chief Executive, who
with other executive department gov
ernment officials gain just that
much more ife-and-death power over
every American business.
We desperately need protection of
the public-from abuses by organized
labor in complete disregard of the pub
lie welfare. That protection should be
clearly spelled out in law which
would set up labor Supreme Court for
compulsory arbitration and settle
ment Of strikes which adversely af-
feet the public welfare. Anything
less than this is political appease-
ment Of powerful unions and union
leaders.
Milford chronicle., 1963-03-22

This was because German army or
ganization and tactics were superior,
and in the first World War equipment
was almost invariably better. Equip
ment was also better in many cases in
World War ii, though the Russian
tanks were probably superior to the
German tanks, or at least equal, as
might have been Russian artillery, in
World War III.
Russia's policy today is designed to
keep Germany divided and weak. She
cannot keep West Germany weak for
the new West Germany is already pow
erful again. But she is succeeding in
keeping Germany from reuniting.
Russian foreign policy then is built
on both fear complex and guilt COM
plex, for she was equally guilty in the
starting of World War II, along with
Germany, and has profted by the war,
having stolen much German land, for
Poland and for herself Such a situa-
tion BODIES no good for future decades.

Frances Gratitude

President Charles de Gaulle, VINO has
rejected Great Britain's bid to enter
the European community, and who has
defied Washington and challenged the
United States role in Europe, is GER
tain to be recorded by history as one of
the most ungrateful leaders of the Wes-
tern world in modern times.
He has blocked British entry into
the ECM, revealing a, jealous and en-
vious feeling for the nation that stood
by France during World War IL and
did more to save freedom for the French
people than any other. More than that,
he was guest and protected one in
London during the Nazi occupation Of
France and was allowed to prepare for
his role in France after the war iii

President John F. Kennedy has for
INFLATED new approach to the union
strike threat, it is reported, and is
seeking congressional legislation which
would give the President the right to
appoint an emergency disputes board, !"
which would make recommendations in
an effort to head off crippling strike,
contrary to the public interest and well
fare.
The proposal is needed but the danger
in the Presidents proposal is that it
will turn over to the President most Of
the power now residing in the hands
of-federal courts, which can now issue
injunctions preventing strikes for
eighty days.

Included will be film slides
Of patients with cancer and a

Ger by DR.. Ayerle. A movie on
the detection Of cancer will be
shown.
The talk and film will con-
sumo about an hour and a half,
said E. P. Barrett, director Of
Industrial relations at Latex.
Barrett and William Beam, the
telephone company's Community
Activities Committees chair
men, are arranging the program.
Beam is also the Diamond State
Telephone Company's wire chief
for all the central offices In
Kent County.
Barrett said that for many
years doctors have been
cautioning US about the nation's
Number 2 killer, and many are
becoming increasingly convinced
that the best hope for immediate
gains lies in greater use Of
present diagnostic tools.
''During 1868, cancer is ex-
pected to claim the lives of
275, 900 Americans, 5000 more
than in 1861. Not only does in
creasing longevity expose more
Of the population to cancers
dangers, but the rate Of certain
types Of cancer is trending up

The potential value of earlier
is great. The Ameri-
can Cancer Society believes 87,-
900 Of this years expected
deaths might have been prevent
ed through earlier detection and
treatment. The problem has
been in translating potential in
to reality, he said.
Members Of the American
Cancer Society of Kent County
will also be present at the pro-
gram.
The program will be concluded
With a question and answer seS-

to Ohio and would arrive here
TO De our guests for a while :
BUT WHEN?
The morning of the White
House luncheon the Longmans
arrived in the Alexandria rail-
road station at 900 am. This
was perfect because they were
here and settled long before we
all descended upon Pennsylvania
Avenue and the events there.
Mr.. Tommy Hughes of
Georgetown and Ted entered the
White House front door at 100
pm. and were ushered into the
red room where cocktails were
being served. There we're only
twenty-five invited guests. Soon
the President entered the room
and shook hands with everyone.
Luncheon in the gold dining
room consisted of roast duck
ling, wild rice, green beans,
dessert similar to baked
Alaskan and demi tasse. All of
which, with much more elegant
names, was printed on a hand
some menu. The only "deal"
l wanted out Of the trip was a
White House press pass and Ted
forgot to mention 1t. They all
drew seating numbers and Ted
was not too close to JFK, nor
was Tommy, but who could COM
plain?
The rest of the week was
rather subdued, even though we
kept a pretty lively pace with
the Longmans remaining our
guests until yesterday morning.
They left for New York City
where they were picking UP their
car that bad been shipped to
some pier in that city. How
we all laughed at their story.
Their permanent home is in

2-1/2 years in Puerto Rico, they
own a house in Topeka, a lot in

Dear Friends:

Dear Friends:
Last week couldn't have been
buster. I wondered sometimes
If we would ever catch up on
our sleep. A busy household is
fun and we love company and
that is exactly what we had last
week.
I guess by far the most i'm
portant event of the week was
the luncheon at the White House.
Two weeks ago my father called
me and read me a telegram in
viting him to have lunch at the
White House with other news
paper men from the Delaware
Maryland area. The date set was
March 18th. Those of you who
know me know how / screamed
and yelled over this event. I
was furious because 1t wasn't
a blanket invitation and I could
not tag along on Papa's coat
tails. Dad Immediately told me
that there would be younger men
going in the group and he would
like my brother, Ted, to accept
the invitation in his stead.
So Thursday was the day set
aside for Kinney, Ted's wife,
and me to stand outside the
White House and wave "hello"
as he entered the grounds by the
north west gate.
But hanging over us was the
mysterious phone call announc-
ing other guests might be
arriving any minute from
Topeka or Puerto Rico or Ken
lucky. From Fort Knox came the
announcement. that our niece.
Jacqueline Dtckerson's fiance
was being discharged and that he
might be coming in by a winged
bird to take his place in civilian
society again. We received
a letter from him, but his visit
did not materialize. Then our
eldest daughter, Lynne, received
a phone call from dear Air
Force friends Of ours. Last let
ter from them they were in
Puerto Rico, but she said some
thing about Charleston, S. C.
and another phone call from
Topeka, Kansas (where we knew
them for three years.. Finally
deciphering all this it de-
veloped it was a real estate man
in Kansas calling for the Long
mans about their home in
Topeka. Ed and Wilma Longman
