For the man who has to eet uo and the fact that he has to get up Is worse than the actual eettine up it Is a time of terrible tempta tion ana pain, of soul-searching and soaring Imagination It is also moment of glory, dearly won. It is a time when man exhibits the best and worst In him. But the worst is not enough to keen him from going to work and the best Is not enough to make him set out of bed gracefully. In this dreadful hour, every man Is a poet alone, a boy without a mother, a rebel without conviction. a bov scout without a scoutmaster to lead him in his duty. He Is lost and alone with his conscience. He alone must make the fateful decision He alone must distinguish between his condition as he first imagines it and his condition as it really Is. A man starting the day Is ready to believe anything about his health except that he s strong enough to go to work. He feels an ache in his back. which becomes Incredible pain, or could become incredible pain. As he looks into the dark future and sees himself in a wheel chair, he is brave. He hones he will not become too much of a burden on his loved ones We'll all have to be brave and we'll all have to do our bit, he thinks, and already he is blown up with pride over the picture of the stiff UDDcr lin his family will show But slowly reality begins to peck awav at his thought. This is silly, ho says. Why do I hope I mean, who do I fear I have something seriously wrong with my back? Don't cross any bridges until you see a doctor. Still, the man reasons, It would be silly to go on feeling this way. I'd be no good in the office today, for sure. A man In this condition could make a wrong move, could cost his firm a fortune, might even put thousands of people out of work. Whose conscience would fall on? Reality is still infiltrating, In exorably. Suddenly the concrete fortress our man has built up falls apart. Behind his back, he feels a lump. Somehow during the night, he had wadded up his pillow and slept wun tne puiow under nis spine, in stead of under his head. Still, the wish fights on to the last, and the man says, regard less of now suiy tne cause, a sore back is still a sore back, and he'd be no good at the office, and sud denly he finds himself in the bath room shaving. m nc J4 .7 ftiWrrtcy 7 M;Kj; r Defense Fund Cut For 1953 Backd By Rep. Vinson WASHINGTON Uh Chairman Vinson D. - Ga., of the House Armed Services committee said Monday the United States will have "an almost completely mod' em" defense force by the middle of 1956.

What Budget Would Permit Vinson said the trimmed budget would permit this military strength by July 1, 1953. An Army of 1,550,000 men and 20 combat divisions; a Navy of approximately 870,000 men and 2,434 operating ships; a 95-wing Air Force. By the middle of 1956, he said, the military services will have completed the expensive program of modernizing and equipping their forces, including a 143-group Air Force. He predicted some reduction in defense expenditures before then and substantial reductions after ward. It was evident he referrred to a buildup without war. Vinson noted that the revised budget is 10 billion dollars less than Congress voted in military funds for the present fiscal year, ending June 30.
