CHURCHILL
The winner and new Prime

War II, "I did not become Prime

Churchill Wins British Election;
Civilian Group Proposes UMT Plan
CHURCHILL—For the second time in his life Winston Churchill
has become Prime Minister of Great Britain. As a result, many U. S.
officials are predicting closer Anglo-American relations than existed
under the Labor government of Clement Attlee.
Churchill’s election, however, gains importance from the home
towners point of view for a number of possible conflicts in Anglo-
American relations that may result and not from possible closer ties.
Britain’s new Prime Minister has long wanted a meeting of top western
leaders with Premier Stalin, but
President Truman has opposed such
a move ever since the Potsdam con
ference in 1945.
Churchill, who once said he did not
become Prime Minister of Great
Britain to see the empire dissolved,
is expected to take a firm stand on
the Suez and Sudan problem. In fact,
he could defend the empire system
with such tenacity that it could be
come a point of conflict between
Washington and London.
On the other side of the ledger,
Churchill is believed in full harmony
with the U. S. policy in Europe—a
strong joint defense, constantly in
creasing economic and political unity,
the close association of Britain with
the European continent as well as
the United States and the Common
wealth.
UMT PROGRAM— The National
Security Training Commission, a five-
man civilian group formed last June
after congress had approved the
broad idea of universal military
training, has made a report to con
gress that will reach into every home and family in the nation.
Briefly, the commission has recommended a UMT program that
could involve 800,000 youths annually and cost more than $4 billion
in the first year. Every youth upon reaching 18 would get six months
of training, then for the next seven and a half years be in a reserve
component if the plan was put in operation.
The commission had this to say about world conditions and the
future: “The clear prospect is that the present generation must live in
danger for many years’’ and therefore should “learn to live with danger
calmly and confidently”.
Because today’s military technology permits an enemy to strike di
rectly at the United States by sea or air, “the American people must
be prepared, like their forebearers who pushed the frontier westward,
to meet a savage and deadly attack at any moment.”
KOREA— Peace talks are underway again in Korea and rumors
circulate that this time they will not collapse. However, the man on
Main Street still has the feeling that you can’t do business with the
Communists and expect little of the negotiations.
Politely, but firmly, United Nations representatives have told the
Communists they refuse to swap hani-won ground for peace in Korea.
TTCie Reds insist on a buffer zone 15 miles wide along the 38th parallel.
The possibility remains that the Allies may make minor adjust
ments in the present battle line that would be acceptable to the Com
munists. An unusual note was sounded when Communist correspondents,
who usually have little to say to UN correspondents, expressed optim
ism: "I feel certain a few miles are not going to hold up an agreement,”
one is reported to have said.
POLITICS—Frank E. McKinney, Indianapolis businessman, was
scheduled for the job of Democratic national chairman, replacing Wil
liam M. Boyle, Jr., who recently resigned while under fire by senate
investigators.
McKinney reported he had “agreed to accept” the $35,000-a-year
Job and would dispose of his interests in a pipeline company which is
seeking a government certificate to get 100,000 tons of scarce steel. He
will retain his radio and banking interests.
In his announcement that he had agreed to accept the job, McKin
ney said: “I’ll state here and now that so long as I am national chair
man, no company which I am affiliated with or interested in will ever
enter the doors of a government bureau or agency seeking favors or
considerations of any type or character.”
IRAN CRISIS—Rumors persisted during recent days that an agree
ment in the British-Iranian oil dispute was near, with the United States
playing an important part in the negotiations.
It was rumored the agreement would provide: (1) British marketing
of Iranian oil, which would be purchased at an agreed wholesale rate
and sold in consumer areas at prices sufficient to assure Britain of a
reasonable , r pro£it; (2) Compensation for British properties already
seized by Iranians: (3) An agreement to assure success of Iranian pro
duction, probably providing for a “neutral” manager under Iranian
government controL

ATOMIC EXPLOSION
The typical column and mushroom of an atomic bomb explosion
rises high above earth at Nevada test site, some 65 miles northwest of Las
Vegas, Nev. This shot was made from a point on Mt. Charleston 40 miles
away.
FARM ACCIDENTS—The corn harvest is in full swing in the mid
west and the farm accident rate will climb accordingly. Last year in
Nebraska, for instance, the compicker toll was two lives, 194 fingers,
18 hands, 10 arms, one leg, four toes and two feet.
The National Safety Council estimated that farm accident deaths
are being recorded at the rate of 48 a day, or 17,520 a year; disabling
injuries no\r total 1,500,000 a year. The economic loss caused by farm
accidents is estimated at $1 billion a year.
BIGGER CROPS—Although the government will not publish their
production guides for 1952 until mid-December, agriculture experts
predict the government will ask for bigger crops. The big push will
probably be for higher yields per acre, rather than greater acreage.
The simple reason for the expected production increase is the up
surge in the number of people to feed and clothe. Since the 151 million
U. S. nose-count of early 1950, census officials figure there’s been a 4
million increase.
CHEAPER PORK
Record Hog Crop Indicates Cheap Pork
The greatest number of hogs to
be marketed in seven years will
flood livestock centers in the next
few months and will result in a big
drop in perk prices across the re
tail counter, producers report.
This year’s pig crop of almost
106 million head is the largest for
any year in “peace-time” and is
second only to 1943’s staggering
record of 121 milli m.
The increasing number of ani
mals going to market has already
caused a considerable price slide.
In July hogs were bringing $23.95 a
hundred pounds at the Chicago
market. Last month the price was
down to $19.75. One official of a big
packing firm predicts that prices
may slide to $17 or $18 per hundred
by the middle of November or early
December.
GRILLED . . . Joseph Li Calsi was

BRITISH SCIENTIST MISSING . . . Dennis O’Connor (shown at work
at the national institute for medical research) and I. G. Campbell were
said by English security officers to have vanished abroad with their
families. No security secrets are involved, however, in their disappearr-
ance. O’Connor was described by the Daily Mail as an avowed
Communist. Their disappearance brings to mind the disappearance of
the two British diplomats, Donald MacLean and Guy Buygess.

Mossadegh visits Philadelphia on the first leg of a trip to Washington
which scheduled him to have lunch at the White House with President
Truman. Mossadegh pauses a few moments to feel the Liberty Bell in
independence Hall. The subject of liberty is especially close to the
Iranian premier right now as he fights to rid his country of British
influence created by the interest of the British in Iranian oil.

Vatican Appointment
, pE PUBLIC AN pundits have now
had time to take careful sound
ings on the President’s appointment
of Gen. Mark Clark to the Vatican
and have concluded that political
ly it will do the Democrats more
harm than good.
At first they feared the surprise
move would win the big-city Cath
olic vote back to the Democratic
party—a vote which, because of
McCarthy’s semisuccessful cry of
State department Communism, was
definitely slipping over to the Re
publican side. However, they now
figure that they can easily label the
Truman gesture as politics, for two
reasons:
1. Although the President had
talked to General Clark a couple
of weeks earlier and got his con
sent to serve as Vatican ambassa
dor, he did not send the appoint
ment to the Senate until late on the
last day congress was in session.
Thus, GOP leaders intend to point
out, Mr. Truman could not have
been too serious about getting the
new ambassador confirmed.
2. The further fact that General
Clark, a military man, must get
a- special act of congress to permit
him to serve, gives him a double
hurdle to overcome and further
postpones the date when ho can
take office.
Hot Potato in Ohio
Buried in the files of the senate
elections committee, however, is
some anti-Catholic campaign litera
ture which has Republican strat
egists much more worried. This is
the reason why the elections com
mittee has been teetering back and
forth trying to make up its mind
about a real probe of the Ohio elec
tion.
Highlight of this campaign was a
letter, dated Oct. 3, 1950, signed by
Rev. F. R. Stonebumer of Dayton,
a Lutheran, and widely circulated
throughout Ohio. It read:
“Dear Brethren: Please accept
this letter merely as a matter of
information. It should be known
that Mr. Joseph Ferguson, who is
running against Senator Robert A.
Taft, is Roman Catholic.
“Knowing the efforts of the Ro
man church to get an official rep
resentative to the Vatican and its
efforts to get publje aid for paro
chial schools, I thought it equitable
to pass this information on to you
for what it is worth. ’
“Of course you know that our
congressman, Edward Breen, is
Roman Catholic and that he favors
public aid for parochial schools.
“It is a mistaken public idea that
Governor Frank Lausche is Roman
Catholic. He was raised in an ortho
dox church. His family goes to a
Methodist church. He has never
been a Roman Catholic. These are
the facts as I have been able to
ascertain them.
“For the authenticity of this let
ter, contact the Lutheran pastor in
your community or Rev. F. R.
Stoneburner, • 201 Commercial St.,
Dayton, O.
“If you wish the members of
your congregation to receive copies
of this letter, please send such list
to Post Office Box No. 224, Green
ville, O.”
Gillette Worries
When Taft first demanded a
probe of his campaign, the Senate
elections sub-committee voted 4 to
1 for it, including the two Repub
lican members, Mrs. Smith of
Maine and Hendrickson of New
Jersey. The only man who voted
against it was timid Senator Gil
lette of Iowa, Democrat
However, when the elections
committee picked Robert Murphy,
an experienced investigator and a
Catholic, as its counsel. Rep. Clar
ence Brown of Ohio, a Taft leader,
blocked the appointment. He would
not let a special bill okaying Mur
phy get through the house.
For weeks now the Ohio probe
has hung Are. Committee in
vestigators in Ohio have re
ported that Taft forces official
ly chalked np $2,066,592.14 as
their total expenditure, but a
sampling has revealed addition
al amounts spent by county and
city groups. One Taft organisa
tion, “Labor's League for Taft,'*
was organized not by labor but
by J. Eugene Carr, ex-president
of the Canton Chamber of Com
merce and a radio executive.
With a full year passed since
Taft’s election, harassed and har
ried Chairman Gillette finally set
Nov. 19 as the hearing date.

SHOPPER'S
CORNER
By DOROTHY BARCLAY
APPLE OF YOUR EYE
r ’S the Big Apple, ladies, that’s
the buy of buys these fall days!
It’s the apple of your eye, with eye-
appeal, taste-appeal, and, perhaps
most important, purse-appeaL
The apple crop this year is 120
million bushels, 11 million bushels
above the average—and that’s a
lot of apples. Unusually favorable
growing conditions,
especially in the
midwest, account
for this apple plen
ty, and for the
bright, fine color,
smooth skins, and
better than average
flavor. So let the
producer worry about distribution.
And let’s us shoppers buy as many,
eat as many, and store and pro
cess as many apples aj the traf
fic will bear. For apples are many,
and price is low.
Be smart and buy ’em by the
bushel. Small lots, say 2 or 3 pound
bags, sell for 8 to 10 cents a pound,
but by the bushel they’ll only cost
you 4 or 5 cents. Your own grocer,
with an eye on your purse, will ad
vise the larger amounts, bushel
or peck, for he knows as well as
you do that apples in any form are
a family favorite.
Keep 'em in sight and within
reach. There’s nothing so nutritious
or refreshing for a home-from-
school tidbit, than a crunchy suc
culent apple. And when they’re
always on deck, they serve as a
reminder for other uses. As soon
as you spot signs of shrinkage 05
wrinkling, get to work, and make
the shrivelers into apple sauce for
future use.
ALL-DAY FOOD ^
Why not start your day with
apples as your breakfast fruit? A
dish of apple sauce or golden-brown
baked apple with cream and sugar,
make a wonderful eye-opener. And
for special leisurely Sunday break
fast, add fried apples to your bacon
or sausage.
For your club luncheon, what
could be more delicious than a
crisp fresh Waldorf salad, or apple
and cabbage salad? Or you could
even make your main course a
scalloped dish of apples, sweet
potatoes or cabbage.
A centerpiece of apples adds a
festive and artistic touch to your
luncheon table. Bright red apples,
sitting there pert as you please,
in the bowl in the center of your
table, with a candle in the middle—
and come dessert-time, you can
pick ’em out by their individual
sticks, and enjoy the final touch
to a delicious lunch.
For dinner, many apple possibil
ities suggest themselves. You can
use apples to stuff spareribs. You
can have glazed apple rings. And
for dessert, make anything from
Dutch apple cake, turnovers, pud
ding, to that prime delight of the
American dinner-table, apple pie.
KING JONATHAN,
The best aU-purpose apple is
the Jonathan, whose reign is from
October through January. The
Jonathan is a bright red over yel
low, sometimes striped. The flesh
is white with a pink tinge, tender,
crisp. Juicy, and very slightly tart.
The Jonathan is excellent to eat
right fresh from the fruit-bowl,
especially good for salads and
sauce. And of all varieties of
Apples, Jonathans are the best
bakers.
Other good cookers, and plentiful
for the same period of time, are
the Grimes Golden, those bright
yellow ones with the russet dots;
and McIntosh, those gay rich reds
with the sweet aroma. But the most
popular variety, Delicious, with the
long-term of October till April,
don’t waste in cooking. They're
much the best for eating fr^sb—and
you’ll find that very easy, too. And
for cooking only, buy the Rhode
Island Greening, from now until
March. Greenings are tops for pies
and tarts!
