Russia now has a manpower pool of some tOO,000,000 to draw from. This nation alone has 150,000,000. But we eveu it up to some extent hr a five-to-oire edge on production and armament and firepower. If we abandon Europe, then we are handing over to Russia the tremen dous production resources of all Europe and the rich steel assets of the Rhur valley which would give them the advantage in armament and we couldn't dig our holes deep enough here to keep them out Washington Silhouettes The nostalgic wind-up of the lame-duck session of the 81st con gress . . . farewells, swan-song speeches, even a few tears and the immediate swearing-in of a new congress with many brash fresh men on both sides of the capital . . .

Meat likely will be the first com modity to go under price control and rationing. It is rapidly passing beyond the purchasing ability of the average American and many are _ for a pri'e ceiling on thip commodity.' By Lcn KleU WALTER WNU *' *. t re^Dono \ Hoover Statement JJANKING GOVERNMENT effi- cials here do not believe, as Mr. Herbert Hoover seems to be lieve, that the people of this coun try have degenerated into a nation of rodents. It is as foreign to the nature and character of the men and women who till the soil of America’s vast expanses of farms and fields and to the staunch independent, free dom-loving folks at the grass roots in the home towns of this country to crawl into a hole, and, as the saying goes, pull it in after them, as it is for the American eagle to assume the qualities of the carrion buzzard or traits of - the thieving, boisterous crow. And yet, during the past few weeks two schools of thought on the nation’s foreign policy have been put forth and the people seem con fused. Mr. Hoover would crawl into our hole and pull our two oceans in over us and let the rest of the world go bang. John Foster Dulles, Mr. Hoover's own political par ty, would face the world, would of fer our military and moral strength to save western civilization from , the onslaught of Communist bar barians. If we should do as Mr. Hoover suggests, scamper into our holes, like rats and mice, Mr. Dulles . says we would not be the “kind of a United States which could defend itself.** We have got to make up our minds quickly on this question. . Time is running out Do you take to your hole with the rats and mice, or will you be on the <side of the American eagle? Unfortunately, there, is a segment of the American press which bol sters the Hoover fallacy and gains disciples by the simple expediency of criticism and division—an old Hitler stand-by and improved upon considerably by one Mr. Joe Stalin. Stir up confusion, criticism, tell lies often enough and big enough and eventually they will be be lieved. These men in our national life, little men of little faith, are saying we must abandon Korea. We must pull out of Europe, we must abandon our solemn pledges, our moral commitments, our allies in Europe, wo should forget the United Nations and hoe our own row. we must find a scapegoat for the less of a battle in Korea, • • il Stamina Shown If we are to conquer communism. It will not be by military force of arms. No Gibraltar in this hemi sphere will help ideas out of the United States. And in spite of the loss 9f the battle of North Korea, there is one fact which in the mind of this reporter will do more to impress all Asia than if we had won a signal military victory. That was. when despite the extremity of the military evacuation of Hung- nam, we did not forget our friends, and we had the moral stamina to evacuate with our own men more than 100,008 friendly Koreans.

By the Numbers A guest at a Hollywood luncheon of gag writers was startled when one writer yelled "60," and every body snickered. Anotherr cried “42,*’ and a ripple of laughter ensued. Then a third cried “94” — and a stout party in the corner practically went into convulsions. “What on earth is all this laugh ing at numbers?" the visitor asked. ‘These jokesters,** explained the host, “know every gag in the world. They’ve given a number to eadb joke. When anybody calls out a number, they all laugh as hard as if he had told the actual story.” “But what about that fat lad who is still choking with laughter be cause somebody yelled ‘94*?” ask-, ed the guest. “Oh, Wm,” came the answer. “I guess never heard that gag before.” School or Party Dress Combines Two Fabrics 5s YOU'VE BE6N SITTING THERE FOR TWO HOURS WITH ONE EYE OPEN AND ONE EYE SHUT.

After slap ping at It several times Charlie became exasperated and called for a swatter. Aa the discussion continued, he sat with the swat ter poised and a menacing eye on the elusive fly. Three time he swung at It; three times he missed. At last the fly settled on a table directly In front of him, and Charlie tensed for the kill. Slowly, cautiously, he raised the swatter. But just as he was ready to deliver the deathblow, be deliberately lowered the weapon and allowed the fly to escape. “For heaven’s sake!” someone blurted out. “Why on earth didn't you swat it?” Charlie shrugged. “It wasn't the same fly.” * * Lazy Actor John Barrymore was in San Francisco on the morning of the earthquake. He was thrown out of bed by one of the shocks, spun around on the floor and left gasp ing in a corner. Finally, he got to his feet and rushed for a bath tub, where he stayed all that day. Next day he ventured out. A soldier, with a bayonet on his gun, captured Barrymore and com pelled him to pile bricks for two days. Barrymore was telling his ter rible experience in the Lambs’ Chib iii New York. “Extraordinary,” com mented Augustus Thomas, the playwright. “It took a convulsion of nature to make Jack take a bath, and the United States Army to make him go to work.” See how scoirs he! build you upl If f**l run •04 cold* hang on — mayb* von don’t g«t i < •nough natural A AD Vitamin food.
