WEEKLY NEWS ANALYSIS
Palestine Trouble Heads for Climax
As Arab Nations Prepare to Attack;
Vandenberg Gives Warning to Russ
By Bill Schoentgen, WNU Staff Writer
(EDITOR'S NOTE: When opinions are expressed in these columns, they are those of
Western Newspaper Union’s news analysts and not necessarily of this newspaper.)
CLIMAX:
Palestine
With • clashing of arms and a
babble of alarmed voices, events in
Palestine appeared to be piling up
for another minor but bloody climax
in human history.
This particular crisis had its im
mediate beginning in a savage at
tack on the Arab city of Jaffa by
members of Irgun Zvai Leumi, Jew
ish underground force. Fact that
the Irgunists' foray against Jaffa
was made in defiance of orders by
Haganah, the regular Jewish militia,
carried no weight in the rush of in
cidents that followed.
From Palestine’s coastal plain, site
of the neighboring cities of Jaffa
(Arab) and Tel Aviv (Jewish), the
focal point of the disturbances
moved swiftly inland to the holy city
of Jerusalem.
Arabs and Jews hastily deployed
their on-the-scene forces in prepara
tion for what stacked up to be a
major battle for possession of Jeru
salem. Facing each other across a
scant 20Q yards of no-man’s land,
each side had its eyes fixed on the
strategic Alamein camp which the
British were evacuating.
But that wasn’t all. It soon be
came apparent that the Arab league
nations surrounding Palestine did
not intend to stay out of this fight.
Reports were current that six Arab
nations had decided to invade the
Holy Land with ground, sea and air
forces before the British ended their
mandate on May 15.
The whole thing was shaping up in
the form of a more or less total
Arab effort to crush completely the
Jewish intention of creating a Zionist
state in Pah stine.
Worried U -ited Nations delegates,
meanwhile, east about for a means
to prevent the Inevitable carnage,
or at least to preserve the city of
Jerusalem.
France pushed its sponsorship of
a heavily-armed volunteer U. N. po
lice corps to safeguard Jerusalem,
dint of the make-up of such a force
was given in the suggestion that it
might include 100 New York police
volunteers, but no Russians. This
protective army would number from
500 to 800 members.
While the Palestine situation
leaped into a frantic state of flux,
the United States kept discreetly out
of it all in conformation to its re
cently adopted policy of apparent
disinterest to what happens in the
Holy Land.
DEFIANCE:
Two Issues
In a surprise speech at a dinner
given by Michigan chambers of
commerce for the state’s congres
sional delegation. Sen. Arthur Van
denberg served notice on Russia
that:
The United States may Join west-
• em Europe in a military alli
ance against Communist aggression,
and
’’We shall not surrender to Com-
■ munist conspiracies in the Unit
ed States.”
Thus, the chief Republican propon
ent of bi-partisan foreign policy split
the rind on two issues which, like
grapefruit, will come more and more
to be in the public eye as this year
wears on.
Simply stated, those two issues
are: Whether the U. S. should line
up militarily alongside the recently
formed union of western European
nations, and whether the Communist
party should be outlawed in this
country.
They could become decisive issues
in the presidential campaign. In
deed, Harold Stassen already has
Introduced one of them by coming
out bluntly in favor of outlawing
Communists in the U. S.
Vandenberg said, “We are sui
cidal fools if we do not root out and
destroy any treason at home which
may dream of bringing world revolu
tion to the United States.”
The Michigan senator only hinted
at a U. S. military alliance with
western Europe, but his remarks
hardly could be misconstrued.
What Vandenberg didn't say is that
while the U. S. has no formal or offi
cial role in the union of western Eu
ropean nations, American aid and
support, military-wise, of that union
almost inevitably is implied.
Whether or not this nation will
grant that assurance will come to
be a towering question in the public
mind soon.
SKY-HIGH:
Bombing
A team of air force and army
ordnance men is seeking better
methods of hitting pin-point bomb
targets from extremely high alti
tudes, out of reach of most anti-air
craft guns or fighter planes. #
This joint organization is conduct
ing most of its secret tests in the
California desert at Muroc air base.
It’s assignment is to carry out re
search in bombing techniques, par
ticularly at high altitudes.
OUTLOOK
The Dim Peace
Gen. Omar N. Bradley, army chief
of staff, was taking a dim view of the
possibilities of peace.
In fact, he admitted to the senate
armed services committee, the pros
pect of a war is appreciably greater
now than it was three months ago.
Adding forcefully to the pattern of
evidence which U. S. armed forces
representatives have been construct
ing to support their requests for a
military draft and universal train
ing, Bradley said:
“I think we would be neglecting
our duty if we did not try to tell you
that we are a little bit more afraid
something will happen than we were
three months ago when we were talk
ing in terms of reserves.”
And he added “we are not so sure”
that war might not be looming in the
immediate future.
To his testimony Bradley appended
this clincher:
“We know that we are all speaking
about Russia.”
There it was—a responsible ap
praisal by the chief of staff of where
the present talking war between
Russia and the U. S. might lead.
What caused General Bradley to
think the situation is more critical
now than it was three months ago?
He didn’t say, but there is only one
apparent explanation.
The tide of power politics has
turned against Russia and is moving
in favor of the western democracies.
With ERP beginning to channel
money and supplies into Europe, the
fields most favorable to Communist
growth—poverty, hunger and dis
satisfaction—are starting to be re
claimed.
As far as getting control of west
ern Europe was concerned. Commu
nists saw their main chance go
glimmering v/hen they lost the Ital
ian election. They have, in short,
gone beyond the stage where they
can carry out territorial acquisitions
through political coups.
In order to expand further now,
Russia probably would have to apply
force, which, in this case, would be
the Red army.
And that may be why General
Bradley thinks war is more of a
likelihood now than it was three
months ago.
SMASHER:
For Atoms
To expand further the constantly
widening fields of atomic research,
a gigantic new cyclotron will be
built at the University of California
at a total cost of nine million dol
lars.
In announcing the project the
atomic energy commission said the
new cyclotron—commonly known as
an atom-smasher—would be 20 times
more powerful than the 4,900-ton ma
chine currently in operation at the
Berkeley institution.
David E. Lilienthal, AEC chair
man, provided a hint as to the kind
of long range planning for peace the
commission is visualizing when he
said that the new cyclotron "serves
notice to the world that it is the in
tent of the people of the United
States to be pre-eminent in the de
velopment of fundamental science of
all kinds.”
Engineering already is under way
on the huge atom-splitter, but it will
take five years before it is com
pleted. Conceived as 20 times more
powerful than the most powerful cy
clotron now operating, it will pro
duce atomic bullets ranging in force
from six billion to 10 billion volts.
At Large
Secretary of Commerce W. Aver-
ell Harriman has been named by
President Truman as ambassador-
at-large for the European recovery
program. Harriman resigned his
cabinet post Immediately.
Money Talks
Now an inventor has come up with
a check that not only will talk but
will scream if it has been forged
or tampered with.
Burgess Smith, who used to do
legal counterfeiting for the U. S.
treasury, claims that his check will
identify, itself verbally when it is
passed through a special machine.
And if it has been tampered with It
will emit a shrill screech, indicating
that it is worthless.
Target
Walter P. Reuther, president of
the United Anto Workers (CIO),
was seriously wounded when he
was shot by an unknown assailant
who fired a shotgun at him through
the window of his Detroit home.
Communists were suspected of be
ing behind the attack because of
Reuther’s strong opposition to
them in the union.
MINERS:
Temporary
Let not the public be deceived by
the spell of quiet that is reigning in
the nation’s soft coal mines and the
temporary evaporation of John L.
Lewis from the stage.
As it looks now, this peaceful situ
ation is good only until June 30.
Even while the miners continue to
chop coal in the pits, they make it
clear that they expect to go back
to their fishing on that date.
June 30 is the day the present
wage agreement between the United
Mine Workers and the coal operators
expires. It is possible, of course,
that a new agreement may be
reached before then, but it is prac
tically impossible to find anyone
who thinks so.
After Lewis’ tussle with Federal
Judge T. Alan Goldsborough in
which he and the union were fined
a total of $1,420,000, the miners went
back to work after hearing John L’s
“wish” that they do so. This, how
ever, is regarded as merely a tem
porary truce.
One of the reasons advanced for
Lewis’ cantankerous delay in coming
to terms on the pension dispute was
that the mine leader was eking out
the work stoppage as long as pos
sible in order to deplete the nation’s
coal reserves and so put himself in
a better bargaining position when
the contract negotiations came up.
That he accomplished that end
there is no gainsaying. Coal stocks
went down almost to zero all over
the country, resulting in curtailment
of steel production, a cut in rail
travel and various major and minor
industrial shutdowns.
It is a fact, too, that Industry will
not have recovered its balance suffi
ciently by June 30 to cope adequately
with whatever emergency Lewis
might precipitate this time.
FOOD PRICES:
Logical
Not that it makes it any easier
to pay the grocery bill, but the rea
sons why food prices are so high
are no mystery.
U. S. has been channelling food
and resources into foreign countries
at a rate and volume never before
approached. Also, every American
able to digest solid food is eating 17
per cent more than he did before the
war.
Finally, until just recently, con
sumers have been spending their
money on food because there was
nothing much else available to buy.
Those conclusions were reached by
University of Wisconsin economists
after an investigation into the causes
of current high price levels.
Center of the whole spiral are
grain prices.
Strong exports of com and wheat
caused an upswing in prices on the
commodity markets. More expen
sive grains cause prices of flour,
bread, ham, pork loin and rib roasts
to go up.
OREGON:
Next Up
After whirling breezily through
Ohio to the thorough disgruntlement
of Sen. Robert Taft, campaigning
Harold E. Stassen set his political
sights on the May 21 Oregon primary
election where he was due to joust
with Gov. Thomas E. Dewey for
that state’s Republican convention
delegates.
In a kick-off address in Portland
Stassen refurbished his foreign and
domestic policies for the edification
of Oregon voters who will elect the
12-member GOP delegation.
Stassen was taking his Oregon
campaign seriously because a large
measure of importance was being
attached to the election insofar as it
would provide the first test of West
coast opinion on Republican presi
dential contenders.
SHORTAGE:
Farm Machinery
Behind the present shortage of
farn) machinery in the U. S. lies a
now all-too-familiar story: More
such machinery is being produced
than ever before but it isn’t enough
to meet the demand.
Waiting list for farm machinery
is phenomenally long, yet 131 per
cent more tractors, cream separa
tors and other pieces of farm equip
ment were produced in 1947 than
were available in 1939.
New Strain of Corn
Withstands Drouth
Guatemala Crossbreed
Also Resists Root Rot
Possibility of producing com that
would withstand root rot and other
diseases as well as prolonged dry
spells appealed to Earl E. May and
Iowa State college officials.
Knowing that Guatemala had been
producing com for more than 2,000
years in an isolated region, which
had resulted in a highly inbred strain
which could withstand dry spells as
well as certain diseases and pests,
Iowa research workers collected
Jim Moore, KMA, and Enrique
Salas inspecting Guatemala corn
field.
1,200 varieties of com from Central
America.
New Guatemala-U.S. crossbred
corn has been tested at Ames, Iowa.
The new corn outyielded three com
monly used U.S. hybrids as much as
25 bushels to the acre. While the
Midwest varieties withered and died
during hot weather, the Guatemala-
U.S. crossbreed remain in full ears.
College officials believe that early
results give promise of a new strain
that will withstand long dry and hot
spells in any part of the United
States. James Moore, K.M.A. station,
reports that work in Guatemala has
proven entirely successful and he
believes that the new com soon will
be grown on many farms in the
United States.
Organic Matter Will Aid
Work of Soil Bacteria
A single ounce of soil contains 50
million living bacteria, according to
R. C. Thomas of the Ohio agricul
tural experiment station.
These bacteria can help or harm
the crops, depending on the kind of
bacteria. The good kind rot the or
ganic matter, release plant nutrients
and help build soil structure. The
harmful kind cause plant diseases.
The good kind can be aided and
the harmful kind eliminated by add
ing organic matter to the soil. To
get this organic matter, according
to Middle West Soil Improvement
committee, return all possible ani
mal manures to the soil; put back
all crop residues and grow deep-
rooted legumes regularly in the ro
tation and feed .them generously
with fertilizer carrying phosphate
and potash.
Early Growth Stressed
In Raising Baby Pigs
While the average weight of eight-
week-old pigs is probably less than
30 pounds, a lot of pigs weigh 40
pounds or more at this age. On the
contrary, many weigh as low as 20
pounds. These variations in wean
ing weights have a marked effect
on the growth-rate of pigs up to the
time they are baconers. The bigger
pigs at eight weeks old are the first
to reach 200 pounds liveweight.
Hog Self-Feeder
A portable bog feeder is a piece
of labor saving equipment which
has a place on every farm where
hogs are being raised. The ca
pacity of this feeder is 55 bushels,
but it may be made of any size
desired. If it is kept well painted
it will remain water tight.
Culling Pays Dividends
To Poultry Producers
Regular culling pays dividends,
but many poultry farmers are unable
to carry out the procedure because
of pressure of other duties. How
ever, as the moulting season ap
proaches, it will be seen that a per
centage of the flock commences to
moult earlier than others, and it is
these early moulters that should be
segregated and sent off to market at
first opportunity.

Kabobs Help Yon Keep Cool
(See recipes below)
Cool Tactics
As soon as warmer weather starts
seeping into the house, many a wom
an asks the all-important question,
“How can I keep cool and still cook
for the family?”
That is a neat trick, but you can
do it, too. The first thing is to plan
your menus so there are no long
cooking ideas in them. Make a point
of not selecting anything that will
require more than 30 minutes cook
ing.
The second is to do most of your
work in the cool of the morning, so
that you won't be spending too much
time right at supper time when it is
so warm.
The third is to plan all-cool meals
and get the preparation out of the
way before hot weather really hits
you. There are a number of cool
ideas such as meat or meat-fortified
salads that can be whipped together
early and stored until supper time.
Do this once or twice a week and
see how nicely it works.
Here are several ideas that won't
require much actual cooking prepa
ration. Use them often for variety.

Salad That Satisfies
Salad suggestions always intrigue
the homemaker who is interested in
varying her menus, particularly
when she wants to “dress up” a cold
meal for hot summer days. Here is
one slightly different from the usual
salad: Make lemon jelly in the usual
manner, using lemon flavored gela
tin or the plain unflavored gelatin
and following the standard recipe.
Turn into molds which have been
rinsed with cold water. Fill molds
about one-fourth full. Let this gela
tin harden. Then fill molds with a
combination of chopped apple, grat
ed coconut, celery and a bit of
chopped pimento for flavor. To two
cups gelatin, use one cup chopped
apple, two-thirds cup chopped cel
ery, one pimento and one-half cup
grated coconut. Fill molds with
gelatin and chill until firm. Serve
on salad greens with French dress
ing or a sour cream dressing.

LYNN SAYS:
Color, Flavor Contrast
Will Whet Appetite
If you don’t want warmer weather
to wilt appetites, keep in mind in
teresting texture, flavor and color
contrasts in preparing foods. No
appetite wanes when food plates
look pretty.
Roll oranges and lemons until
slightly soft before squeezing to get
more juice.
For crisp, dry bacon, broil on a
cake rack. Drain on unglazed paper.
Vegetable plates are interesting if
they are carefully planned. Have
you tried a nest of spinach with
poached eggs. French fried onions,
tomato stuffed with peas and cream
ed carrots?
Here’s an idea that's as good as
it is beautiful: Broccoli with hol-
landaise sauce, sliced beets, com
fritters and green peas.
Stuff peppers with Spanish rice,
then serve them on the same plat*
with buttered carrots, fried eggplant
and cole slaw with Russian dressing
The Omniprescent Rat
Black rats of ancient history in
vaded the granaries of Egypt, af
flicted the Hebrews with plague,
and are reported to have stimulat
ed the Romans to import snakes to
kill them. They reached England
during the reign of the house of
Hanover, and were therefore called
“Hanoverian rats.” The rat thrives
in any climate on any kind of food.
In the tropics they often nest in
palm trees, descending at night to
plunder food stocks of man.
College Men Reject Jobs

WASHINGTON. — DespiU its

All Joe College has to do to

Navy Strives To Develop
Atomic Engine For Sub
WASHINGTON.—An atomic en
gine which would propel a sub
marine underwater at 30 knots for
a year without refueling is the goal
of the navy’s nuclear power en
gineers.
Navy officials said the develop
ment of an efficient atomic energy
engine for a ship may require a
minimum of 5 years and probably
10 or 15 years of intensive work.
The engine is still on the drawing
boards, and it may be several years
before an experimental model will
be attempted, they said.
“In theory, atomic power can
drive a submarine at 30 knots sub
merged for a year without refuel
ing,” said Adm. William H. P.
Blandy, Atlantic fleet commander.
“With atomic,drive, oxygen would
be needed only for the crew, and a
supply ample for weeks of cruising
down below could be carried.”
