SI’BSCRIBE TO THE CHRONICLE “The Paper Evevrybody Reads” We One suggestion is that the design go back to five rows of ten stars each, if ther are to be 50 states. That- might alter the appearance of the flag considerably. ^ | Another and more ^drastic sugges tion calls for the stars to be arrang- 1 ed in circular form, as they were in the flags provided for the Con--; tinental Congress more than 150 years ago. The chief military authority on the subject is Arthur Dubois, Aiief of the Army’s “heraldic” branch and in charge of designs of emblems and medals for the Defense Department generally. May Appoint Board Dubois said he was not making any suggestions, because if the sit uation arises President Truman will probably appoint a board to rede sign the flag. Admiral George Dewey, hero of Manila, headed such a board to re design Old Glory when New Mexico and Arizona were admitted to the Union in 1912. Dubois has dug deep into the his tory of the flag for possible sug gestions. He found that in the early days | the star arrangement was varied ac-! cording to the tastes of different flag 1 makers. Occasionally, in early fames, a 1 steamship firm would arrange the stars to form the initials of the com pany—a practice that would not be tolerated today. Some Rows Uneven In many cases w'hen the number' of states was uneven, the rows were also uneven, or were staggered.
