The White House air-conditioning system is being
beefed up at a cost of $76,000, but not because the
old system has worn out. It seems that additions to
t£e Whit* House’s office space in the intervening
ye'&Fs require additional equipment to avoid overload-
ing. 'Sfc x;~x -' '■
For some* years, the executive mansion's air-
coqditioning gyStejn, one of the pioneer systems any-
where, has been functioning satisfactorily. In fact,
the 35-year-old equipment will continue to be used
because, in the words of an official, it has stood up
^“amazingly wtfl.”--------------- -^er';—,v.\
In the intervening years, air-conditioning has be-
come a necessity throughout large parts of the co'uh- ”
try, but nowhere is it more necessary than in Wash-
ington’s hot, muggy climate. At the time of the 1926 -
installation, however, the idea was considered a nov-
elty, and was derided in some quarters as a wasteful
expenditure.

any knowledge about Washington’s weather.

YORK (AP)—There are

can’t do much about. He limply
must put up with them.
High on the list is how to cope
with women carrying umbrellas
on rainy days.
A pretty woman peering around
the rim of a summer parasol in a
rose garden is one of the loveliest
sights on earth.
Hand that same gal a bumber-
ahoot on a rainy day in town,
however, and she becomes a ram-
pant traffic menace to male life,
limb and property down any
street she ambles.
You can chart her progress by
the stricken cries of men passers-
by humbly pleading:
“Please, ma’am, may Ihave
my eyeball back?’’
To each of them the lady sternly

“Well, what’s it doing on my
umbrella in the first place??x\
And she pauses to inspect her
umbrella to be sure it is undam-
aged. That’s an odd thing about
w omen on rainy days. When they
bump into a man aiui impale him
on their umbrella, they automati-
cally assume he is a masher try-
ing to strike up an acquaintance
with them the hard way.
They don’t worry about his
wounds. They feel he got what he
deserves. All they fret about is
whether the umbrella is ail right.

WASHINGTON—For more than
15 years the existence of the so-
called “cold war’’ has been sus-
pended like the sword of Damocles
poised to behead civilization.
Thermo-nuclear warfare, based
on scientific achievements in mis-
sile? and rocketry, threatens de-
struction to most of the world and
particularly to those areas of the
world worth preserving. The seats
of civil government, the cities and
the industrial capacity would fall
as first victims in any all • out
atomic contest
At this moment the East and
the West face each other through
the Brandenburg Gate. Each pro-
tagonist has .a chip on his shoul-
der like two little boys eager tor
combat but unwilling to accept
responsibility for starting the s
fight. The Communists hope we
will knock the chip off their shoul-
der first, and our people ata.dK
termined the Communists shallT*
identified as the aggressors it a V
conflict developlr--X ‘ -
X why is It teat the people of the
western world who want to pro-
gress and advance civilization can-
not live in peaceful community
with the people of the Communist
states who also want to make
progress and to advance civiliza-
tion? Why must this'fearful ten-
sion of the cold war continue? Is
it because our economic systems
are different? Or because our po-
litical systems are different?
We have had communal com-
munities in toe United States and
there was no cold war. When this
nation was created and during
most «f Its-existence, there..were
very few democratic republics iij
the world, but we were not the
target of a cold sfc. " ~ •■**< J
^ -The basic reason behind our dif-u
Acuity with Russia today is the
Communist’s denial of the exist-
ence of Almighty God.
We cannot, for long, live at
peace with njpn who deny and
reject the moral laws which we

man has no property rights.
Thou shalt not bear false wit-
ness. We believe In truth. The
Communists believe it is right to
say anything or do anything which
would advance toe cause of world
Communism.
I am the Lord thy God, thou
shalt have no other God before
me. We worship God. The Com-
munists worship the state and toe
rulers who head the state.
Without toe restraint of moral
law, men are no better than beasts,
and men who subject themselves ,
to the discipline of a moral code
are at a great disadvantage when
confronted by men who deny toe
existence of a moral code.
I do not claim that all Ameri-
cans. 4t all time*, observe all toe
moral laws. Being human, we are
V smtpl. But our society recognizes
that vnorality should govern the
acts of men. The Communists con-
cept denies toe existence of moral*

Soviet Premier Khrushchev's mention of a super-
super nuclear weapon is nothing new to scientists
here or elsewhere in the world. They have known for
—- *’ e that it would be. acieatifically ppssihle to
President Kennedy’s disarmament chief, John Mc-
Cloy, confirmed that Khrushchev had “rambled on”
about such a weapon at a recent meeting of the. two
in the Black Sea area of Russia.
. There is some puzzling in Washington, nevertheless,
as to why Khrushchev has-chosen jto increase his
threat of rocket warfare by mentioning such a terrible
weapon at this time. One bit of conjecture is that
he hopes to stimulate American public opinion on
the horrors of another war and thereby bring pres-,
sure on the Kennedy administration to seek a ne-
gotiated settlement of the international crisis.
\ Kennedy’s strategy these days is to stand willing
to negotiate, but to stall until Khrushchev is forced
to spell out what he considers negotiable matters.

Despite the glitter of a mon-
archy,Sweden is one of the purest
democracies in Europe — and one
of the most frugal. When Queen
Elizabeth of England visited Stock-
holm four years ago, she was re-
ceived with all the pomp of an-
. dent royalty. But when the Swed-
4ish Labor Cabinet arrived in toe
middle of the ceremony to greet
her, they piled out of two cars
supplied by the port office and
the Bureau of Prisons. No one in
the Cabinet could afford a car,
and no cabinet member at that
time was supplied a goverment
car as a prerequisite of high of-
fice.
