Looking ’Em Over
Immunity by Wholesale
The College of American Pathologists
in session in Chicago got the lowdown on
a major research project now under way.
The object: To find some means of im-
munizing great masses of people against
the germs loosed by bacteriological war-
fare by simply breathing in the immuniz-
ing substance.
Obviously, the old method of shooting
everyobdy full of vaccine would be too
slow, so science is trying to find the
1 means of administering a single dust-or
mist-like all-purpose agent that could be
breathed in by an auditorium full of peo-
ple in a matter of seconds.
Research of this problem is under way
as part of the general program to find
ways and means of protecting people
against atomic radiation. Undoubtedly
the researchers face many difficulties,
but in view of their many achievements
in countless fields we’d guess they'll
eventually overcome all obstacles and
find a substitute for present time-con-
suming methods of immunization.
Theoretically at least, bacteriological
warfare could be infinitely more devastat-
ing than atomic bombs, and some of our
military scientists fear it more it could
be applied'to all life upon the planet,
animal and vegetable. A blight could be
put upon crops, and whole populations
could be rendered helpless by the spread
of various deadly diseases.
In the end, the only reasonable safe-
guard against germ warfare would be the
threat of retaliation. That stopped the use
of poison gas. but gas never was much of
a weapon, and the aggressor who
thought he held a wide margin of super-
iority over a potential victim in the field
of atomic and germ warfare-might risk a
sneak attack in the hope of paralyzing
the object of attack.
This much is certain: The nation that
hopes for security must be prepared at
all times to minimize the effect of an
enemy attack, and to strike back at the
foe with everything possible
Roosevelt may be said to have discover-
ed the political gold mine that radio was.
in both domestic and foreign issues.
Various secretaries of state under
Roosevelt and Truman have used the
radio to explain and outline foreign
policy, and perhaps if Truman had used
it oftener for the same purpose the
American people-would have a better
understanding of the problems involved.
There might even be fewer legitimate
complaints about the non-existence of a
foreign policy, or about its confused and
apparent on again, off again, gone again
nature
Foreign policy isn't a fixed static pro-
gram that never changes: indeed, itmrust
of necessity be dynamic. It must shift to
meet conditions as they change. The
British Empire, which has been at it
longer than any nation, is capable of
fast footwork when necessity commands.
There are basic principles in foreign
policy that should be maintained, but
methods of approac h and the working out
of details must be made to fit existing
conditions.

Foreign Policy Dynamic
Woodrow Wilson wrecked his health
by carrying to the people a message on
our foreign relations. The “twelve wilful
men” in the Senate were wrecking his
program for U. S. membership in the
League of Nations, and the determined
and stubborn schoolmaster arranged a
transcontinental speaking tour to rally
support to the cause. There is no doubt
popular opinion was behind him, hut the
“twelve wilful men” were in position of
power, and America stayed out of full
participation in the League.
When President Truman speaks to the
nation tonight and reports on his talk
with General Douglas MacArthur at
Wake Island, it will be the second time
he has used the radio for the purpose of
speaking on foreign policy, though he has
used it for ‘many other subjects. The
other time was on August 9. 1945, when
he told the people the principles under
which Germany would he occupied, and
spoke of “the awful responsibility" the
U. S and Britain bore in guarding the
secret of the atomic bomb.
Although radio was in being in Wil-
son’s time, it was not the instrument of
popular appeal it became under F. D R .
and the latter used it often Indeed,
Big Jam, Few Fatalities
As of 10 am Monday, only six acci-
dental deaths had been reported in Tex-
as for the weekend, of which three were
listed as traffic fatalities. This is prob-
ably below the average, and thereby
hangs a tale.
The weekend at Dallas produced two
football crowds totalling 150.000 Half
a million people attended the State Fair
of Texas there Saturday and Sunday, in-
cluding the football crowds. It was a rec-
ord .
The roads entering Dallas from all di-
rections were packed with traffic Friday
afternoon. Friday night, and all day
Saturday. Sunday saw a general exodus
of out-of-town visitors, and the roads
were jammed again
The logjam in Dallas proper was un-
precedented. Five hundred policemen
struggled to keep the motor vehicles
moving, and an airplane was used all
day Saturday to spot the worst jams and
direct police to the spot Never was
there so great a concentration of auto-
mobiles anywhere in Texas
In spite of all this, there wasn't a
single traffic fatality in Dallas, although
there were hundreds of collisions, most
of them minor Several were injured
more or less seriously.
You would think that nothing short of
a miracle could tangle up and then un-
tangle such a crowd without serious con-
sequences You would think that traffic-
filled roads leading into, and then out of
Dallas would surely lead to unusually
heavy fatalities
But by some perversity or blessing of
Fate the opposite was true
Somebody suggests that the volume of
traffic was so great that everybody was
forced to slow down, and since speed Is
usually involved in fatalities, this element
of danger was lacking in the situation
Whatever the cause, Texas picked one
of the worst trafifc jams in its history to
produce one of the lowest records of vio-
lent deaths, and we suppose everybody
should feel so grateful that they wouldn't
even speculate on the marvelous circum-
stance If heavy traffic is the best insur-
ance against fatal accidents, then we
should go in for bigger crowds and
grander traffic jams

GENEVA, Switzerland, Oct 17.
— If everyone were good, self-re-
strained, rease mable. and self dis-
ciplined. what a beautiful world
this would be In this small sample
of Eden the visitor from a wicked
planet must constantly marvel at
the order, the peace and the calm.
It is rather the fashion today to
laugh at Switzerland and this may
well be the laughter of envy O-e
reason for this jeering laughter is
that modern literature makes a
cult of evil for the sake of evil.
In the film, The Third Man."
which reflects that cult, Orson
Welles plays a wild and reckless
American who is gong down to
ruin in the ruins of Vienna. De-
fending his evil life, he says in a
dramatic moment in the movie
"Take the renaissance thirty
years of war murder, bloodshed
and rapine and out of it came the
most beautiful art in the world
And then take Switzerland 500
years of pece- and democracy and
they produced the cuckoo clock "
Not at all perturbed, the Swiss
reply, "No, that is not correct We
did not invent the cuckoo clock It
came from Germany."
But I'm sure they must have in-
vented that boon to humanity the
well-run hotel. Not only do the
Swiss offer an example of reason-
able and restrained conduct in the
surrounding welter of fury and vio-
lence but they encourage the visi-
tor to view it in the utmost comfort
and convenience Each alp, each
glacier, eac hlake seems to be

) MANY TOURISTS
Statistics on the tourist trade
-flow out in an impressive stream.
In the hotels of Switzerland are
200,000 beds and you ran be sure
that each one has the corners
tucked in properly. The Swiss get
on the average about eight percent
of the dollars pent by the Ameri-
can tourist This compares with
about nine percent for Great Bri-
tain, the last, incidentally, being a
figure which the British Tourist
Screen Performer
Association regards as distressing-
ly small.
The air age has done much to
compensate Sw itzerland for its
fand-locked position Trans World
Airlines runs 12 flights a week into

two transatlantic flights a week

augural flight, a new line to Lon-

For all their careful painstaking
management. the Swiss have not
been able to insulate themselves
entirely/ from the effects of two
world wars, a world-wide revolu-
tion and assorted lesser catastro-
phes Wist disturbs the Swiss most
at the moment is the limitation

tain's austerity chief. Sir Staf-
ford Cripps, chancellor of the Ex-
che quer.
The British tourist may take out

And it was on the British that the
Swiss relied heavily for their win-

generous speeders who lived in the
big luxury hotels at St Mortiz and
Davos. %
Even if they still had any in-
come, they would not dream of
traveling austerely on $150 for an
entire vacation Americans have
not yet got the habit of flying to
Switzerland for 10 days or two
weeks of skiing (this is where the
lower air fares come in). So last
wintersmany of the big hotels had
only a handful of visitors. This was
made up in part by virtually a
capacity business during the sum-
mer months when American tour-
ists flocked to Switzerland, feeling
that they were comparatively safe
here no matter what happened in
the rest of Europe.

WASHINGTON, Oct 17. - The
dec ision reached cannot yet be re-
vealed. but one subjec t on the agen-
da of the Truman - MacArthur dis-
cussions was the future of the South
Korean Army.
It a a very delicate problem
Few realize that these 75 000 bat-
tle - hardened veterans are legal-
ly not part of the United Nations
forces.
South Korea is not a member
of the UN The South Korean troops
never used the UN flag 1 They fought
under their own national banner.
Also, they are wholly trained,
equipped and maintained by the
United States.
To all intents, they are U. S.
troops of Korean nationality.
That’s the legalistic snarl.
Its solution is one part of the
overall postwar problem The de-
cision reached, it is believed, will
not enable the Communists to take
advantage of technicalities to cause
trouble
The fate of the South Korean
Army is of key importance be-
cause of its direct relation to the
occupation problem The presence
of this Army will not only greatly
simplify that job but will also ap-
preciably reduce its cost.
Note: The South Koreans are or-
ganizing a battalion of North Ko-
rean volunteers to fight against the
Reds
REVERSE MOTION
As New York’s former Mayor
William O'Dwyer was being sworn
in as Ambassador, a State Depart-
ment official whispered to a col-
, league, "Relations w ith Mexico are
so quiet now, I don’t know, what
he’ll do to keep himself busy.”
"Oh, that's easy,” was the reply.
"When he was Mayor, he was con-
stantly going to California or Mex-
ico to vacation, and now he’ll re-
verse the process. He'll take vaca-
tions — in New York."
Note: It was at blunt White
House insistence that O’Dwyer re-
turned to Manhattan and publicly
ate his words about the gambling
probe being a “witch hunt." White
House assistant Donald Dawson
telephoned O’Dwyer in California
and told him that his continued ab-
sence w as making it tough for the
Lehman - Lynch - Pecora ticket.
THE HARD WAY
While President Truman and the
high brass were conferring on anti-
Communist strategy in the Pacif-
ic, back in the Capital more evi-
dence was being uncovered on how
certain officials had acted so as to
increase the cost and difficulties of
this struggle.
In a forthcoming report the Sen-
ate Armed Services "Watchdog"
Subcommittee will give the details
of a number of such instances.
The committee will censor Brig-
adier General Robert V. Ignico,
commander of Robins Airbase in
Georgia, for proposing to sell as
surplus property 40 airplane en-
gines as late as August 3. 1950, six
weeks after the outbreak of the Ko-
rean war Although no longer used
in fighter planes, the engines are
entirely suitable for trainer craft,
in great need for the rapidly-ex-
panding Air Force
. Ignico offered the engines for
sale despite a July 7 Pentagon di-
rective against further disposal of
usable surplus property.
When the Senate Committee first
tried to get the facts on this situa-
tion, it was given the run-around.
So two ace investigators were bor-
rowed from the Tax Division of
the Justice Department Lawrence
P Sherfey and Phillip Miller went
to the Robins Airbase and got all
the details in short order.
PLANTS SOLD
Another case involves the Muni-
tions Board.
It sold a number • of so-called
surplus plants that would save the
Army large sums in its new tank
construction program.
One of these plants was sold in
August, at a time when it was
known the Army would need ex-
tensive facilities for tank build-
ing. The plant, located at Madi-
son. 111., was purchased by the
Dow Chemical Company at a bar-
gain price
The Munitions Board's action is
particularly remarkable in view of
a report by one of its own agen-
cies.
The Automotive and Tank Advis-
ory Committee singled out this
plan as one that should be re-
tained. Here js what the Commit-
tee said on that
"This plant would be ideal for
the production of tanks .. It is
so constructed and of such large
size as to be suitable for the pro-
duction of two or more sizes of
tanks and by two separate manage-
ment groups. Therefore, it is rec-
ommended that Army Ordeance se-
riously consider retention and use
of this plant for the production of
both light, medium and heavy tank
models should an emergency oc-
cur."
Five other valuable plants sold
by the Board were in Philadelphia

NEA Washington Correspondent
LONDON. (NEA) — A recent public opin-
ion survey in Britain asked the man in the
street how many members of the Labour
government cabinet he could name The re-
sult was a surprise. Mr. Average Citizen
could name not more than these half dozen:
Secretary Ernest Bevin; Chancellor of the
Exchequer (Secretary of the Treasury) Sir
Stafford Cripps: Minister of Town and Coun-
try Planning Hugh Dalton: Minister of De-
fense Emanuel Shinwell: Minister of Health
Aneurin Bevan. That was about all. It rep-
resented only a third of the British cabinet
of 18 ministers.
It is doubtful if a similar quiz in the United
States on the Truman cabinet would turn up
a better average But in Britain, this bad
showing was taken as a sign of weakness
in the Labour Party. What would happen
when these big six died or retired? Would
it be the end. by default, of the Labour
government and its socialization and nation-
alization programs? Or were there some
rising young men in the party to carry on?
British political experts, and civil service
officials In His Majesty’s government began
looking at the Labour members of Parlia-
ment with a new interest.
YOUNG GROUP BACKS UP THE OLDSTERS
Their analysis gave new prominence to a
group of smart young leaders, between 35
and 45 years of age, backing up the older
leaders like Cripps and Bevin, whose health
is not good.
There is a difference between these young-
er men and their better-known superiors.
The oldsters in the Labour Party all came
up the hard way, through the ranks of the
trades union movement. They had not had
what are referred to as "all the advantages "
The younger men are more of the "in-
tellectual type." They have been well
educated. They joined the Labour Party be-
cause they believe in its principles and
programs, and were fed up with Conserva-
tive failures. They are more the type of
Sir Oliver Franks, the exceptionally brilliant
Oxford professor of philosophy who so ably
represents the British in Washington.
The names of these young men who are
said by competent British observers to have
a real future in the Labour Party are little
known in the United States All are of
course elected members of Parliament This
is the first requisite for membership in the
British sub-cabinet.
There are 17 "ministers not in the cabinet”
and 24 "other ministers" which make up
government.
WATCH THESE NAMES
Here are some of these young men going
places in British politics, whose names are
expected to become better known to Ameri-
cans in the next few years
H T %. Gaitskell. 14, Minister of State
for Economic Affairs. He was a first honors
man at Oxford, later a professor at .Uni-
versity of .London In the recent illness and
absence of Sir Stafford Cripps, Hugh Gaits-
kell has taken over the full load of re-
sponsibility,
K. G Younger, 42. Minister of State The
son of a viscount, he was a wartime major in
the Intelligence Corps, and later served «■
an UNRRA official
J Harold Wilson 34 President of the
Board of Trade Another economics profes-
sor who served in minor positions in the
coalition government war cabinet and as a
civil servant.
Hector McNeil, 12 Minister for Scotland.
A Glasgow-born journalist, he was private
secretary to Cabinet Minister P. J Noel-
Baker, as well as a vice president of the
UN Assembly in 1947.
P C Gordon-Walker, 43 Secretary of State
and author of "Outline of Man's History."
he worked as private secretary to Herbert
Morrison, Lord President of the Council.
In addition to these five, there is another
quintet of younger men on whom the Labour
Party relies:
John Dugdale. 45, Minister of Colonial Af-
fairs Son of an Army colonel and a war
veteran himself he served as a secretary
to Clement Attlee in 1945
Alfred ‘ Robens, 40, Parliamentary Secre-
tary for Power. He is a former trade union
secretary.

he happened to have high cards in
clubs; and, besides, there was the
danger of letting the enemy discov-
er a possible fit in clubs. As the
cards lay, George s jump to four
spades was a fine idea.
West opened the deuce of hearts.
Fast put up the king, and George
won with the ace. He then made
bis little speech and led back
the three of hearts’
This unusual trick assured the
contract. East won with the ten of
hearts and returned a trump
George won with the ace of
trumps, ruffed his remaining low
heart with dummy’s jack and re-
entered his hand by ruffing a club
He could then draw trumps and
cash his queen of hearts in perfect
safety. Eventually, of course, he
gave up two diamonds but the con-
tract was already made.
The reason West tried to encour-
age George to go out for extra
tricks is that any such attempt
would have cost him the contract
For example, if George had led the
queen of hearts at the second trick.
West would have ruffed A trump
return would leave declarer with
two small hearts in his hand and
only one trump in the dummy.
Hence he would lose a second
heart trick in addition to the two
diamonds that he was bound to lose
in any case.

Consider the predicament I’m in
right now.
I’ve got to buy a horse.
I didn't know I was going to
have to buy a horse until today
when the current issue of Harper s
Bazaar arrived at our house. I
just happened to open it to Page
264 and there 1 found a picture of
a needlepoint waistcoast, which ap-
parently is all the rage with fash-
ion - plate males.
NO COLORS
Naturally, to keep my head up.
I am going to have to have one.
But here is the drawback.
Harper’s Bazaar comes right nut
and says that the needlepoint waist-
coat should be made in a man s
racing colors.
Now. I ain't got no horse, let
alone racing colors.
So as soon as 1 go upstairs and
shave with one of those widely ad-
vertised razor blades I am going
out shopping for a horse
Wtih a very limited amount to
spend on a racing string of one
horse, I am going to have to be
very careful in my selection.
My choice will be guided pri-
marily by two things, one of which
is that the horse be a small eater
and will be satisfied with table
scraps Oh, I'll buy him a bone
from the butcher every now and
then but I just don't have the
money to go in for bales of hay.
barrels of oats, and bushels of
bran.
Another thing my racing stable
must not neigh or. like to roll
around on his hack kicking Up his
legs and switching his tail.
This because I have no barn and
am going to have to keep him in
the house a good deal of the time.
He’ll get daily walks on his leach,
but aside from that he'll be indoors,
and he ll have to be quiet about it,
too
When the dogs hark at night I
can go in the window and yell to
them to shut up without even real-
ly waking myself up but I know
that to come down to the living
room and tell" a horse to shut up
neighing, would get me so waked
up I wouldn’t go back to sleep the
rest of the night.
I already have my colors select-
ed. so as soon as I gel my horse
I’ll wire the Jockey Club to regis-
