The China Situation I
The stats department has its own team of
experts working on a new policy toward China,
and has invited in outsiders who are informed
on oriental affairs, lit is hard to see where the
United States can write any policy respecting
China because the controlling factors are still
pretty much unknown quantities.
About as good a statement of the situation as
we have read is that by Nathaniel Peffer, prof
essor in Columbia university and a frequent
writer on international questions. His statement
Is not new, having appeared in an article he
wrote for the Delphian Quarterly last February.
It is still pertinent however.
In any event, there 4s nothing that can any
longer be done by America or the Western
world. Fortunate or unfortunate, the experi
ment has to work itself out If China remains
Independent, though communist, and order and
stability can be brought about under the social -philosophy
of a communism applied by the
Chinese in accordance with the Chinese genius,
-so much the better. If China becomes, as Ru
. mania and Bulgaria, the echo of the voice of the
' Kremlin, the difficulties of America will be en
hanced. In that event we shall have to take
counter-measures of equal weight. We shall
have to build the European bulwarks against
Russia even stouter. But in any event the
test will not come Immediately. Whatever
course the Chinese communists choose to follow,
there will be a long period that will have to be
devoted Just to internal recovery and recon
struction, to repair of the ravages of war and
the reforms without which they, too, will lose
the loyalty of the Chinese people. In that
period they cannot add much to Russia's
strength even if they should desire to do so.
In that period, therefore, their accession to
Russia, if they do accede, will not actually add
materially to Russia's strength or, put tha, other
way, add to America's dangers. The sensible
course for America, therefore, is to wait and see,
hoping meanwhile and simultaneously striving
for a settlement with Russia which will leave
unimpaired those guarantees and assurances
developed over the centuries without which the
peoples of Western Europe and North Amer
ica find life intolerable.
Instead of racing to define a new policy it
rtill seems wise to let the dust settle in Asia,
as Secretary Acheson advised some months
ago . ' " '
Tenant-Owned Housing
In a small city like Salemwhere the home
owner is revered and public ( government-subsidized
and tax-paid) housing is frowned upon
as something faintly socialistic, the housing pro
blem is best solved by the efforts of private
builders. But private builders are seldom so
elf -sacrificing that they will construct dwell
ings for low-income families when they can
felt $8,000 to $10,000 homes. ,
That leaves the poor people to make the best
ef what they can get: jerry-built shacks, trailer
eamps, old mansions converted into rickety
apartment houses and projects like our veterans'
housing group. They are condemned to eter
nal tenancy, forever paying out the monthly
rent and getting nothing permanent, nothing
of their own, in return. How much better it
would be if the low-income families could devote
that rent money into home ownership. j
The answer might be in a plan similiar to the
government's new program for low-rent r pu
blic housing which makes money available to
communities for their own housing programs.
uBut this would be a plan by which the ten
ants might eventually own and operate the liv
ing units themselves.
The first steps, as In the federal program,
would be up to the local housing authority. It
would draw up plans and specifications for the
proposed apartment-house units; let contracts
and finance land-buying and building with long-

Weekly with Editorials
The Canby Herald is one of the weeklies of
the state; that carries en editorial column, and
what is more it is filled with good material very
well written, the work we suspect of the fem
inine half of the team of William G. and Myra
Weston, publishers. Here is just a sample ex
tracted from an editorial on the banal bill-of-fare
of restaurant juke-boxes:
We have been sentenced by the Juke-box

Other editors of weeklies over the state should
take their editorial duties more seriously. Too
many either have no editorials or if they do
devote the space To local puffery.
Deep Freeze ?
A perfume company presented General Harry
Vaughan with a deep freeze . . . but it still smells.
And when a witness testified that several
other Washingtonians got similar units a "deep
freeze": settled over the senate committee. ' Per
haps members feared the names of some of the
"club" might come out. The next day though
names of Mrs. Truman, Chief Justice Vinson
and others were added to the list. The bad
aroma spreads.
"Point of No Return"
General MacArthur has declined to return
to the United States, as was proposed in a re
solution by Senator Knowland of California. The
general said he believed , the interests of the
American people could be better served if he
stayed at his post "during this moment of cri
tical events in the Far East."
Bosh, he's not that Indispensable. The rea
son he hasn't come home before is because pre
sidents didn't want him back, or were afraid
to recall him; and he likes it out there where
he takes the place formerly held by the Mikado.
He seems to have reached the "point of no
return."
j "Expediter" was a term that came Into com
mon use during the war. Evidently Harry
Vaughan took it on himself to become expediter
to the expediter on housing, in behalf of his
racetrack cronies. Did Harry have anything to
do with expediting construction of Portland
Meadows?

seems to -belie the existence of
a crisis. This fact. Itself deepens
the crisis. To most Englishmen, '
the crisis Is not real, because
it is invisible. It is figures on
a piece of paper. It Is not an
empty belly and the old hope
less search for work. Yet It may
soon become just that.
A few figures. which r real
ly as simple as Schoolboy arith
metic. 4ell why. The whole ster
ling area, which comprises a
third of the world's trade, has
a .gold and dollar reserve now
little more than a billion and
a half dollars. This shrivelling
kitty is what keeps the economy
of the sterling area ticking over.
It is like the liquid reserve of
a great bank. As with any bank,
as the reserve shrinks frighten
ingly. the depositors begin to
panic trying every device to
get their money out before it Is
too late. j
t
Yet until viry recently It
seemed (as it must have seemed
to many about-to-be-ruined
bankers) that the reserves would
Just hold out, that the nervous
depositors would calm down,
that the bank ! would squeak
through! The Vear 1943 was
much better ' than i disastrous
1947. And the first quarter of
this year was better still. With
about a billion dollars expected
from ECA and Other sources. H
seemed pretty certain that the
dollar deficit would be covered,
and the vital reserve would hold ,
steady. j
Then, with dramatic sudden
ness, in th second quarter of
this year, everything went ter
ribly wrong. The annual dollar
deficit rate (that is the yearly
amount the British are spend
ing in dollar countries more than
they are selling in dollars) sud
denly doubled, shooting up to
two and a half billion dollars.
It is only necessary to work
a very simple sum to grasp the
meaning of this! Take two and
a half billion the rate of defi
cit Subtract a billion what
the British expected from ECA
and other sources. You have a
u . j f ju
Oregon, Telephone -X44ir
billion and a half. This Is Just
about what is left In the kitty.
Thus, at the present rate, by
next June, there will be nothing
left in the kitty at alL The
bank will be bust. The whole
great sterling area will tend to
come apart at the seams. And
the British Isles will be faced
with something pretty close to
total ruin.
- This is the crisis. These are
the figures which have sent Sir
Stafford Cripps to a Swiss sani
tarium, and which mean so little
to the gay crowds in Hyde Park.
The figures are probably not
quite so terrible as they seem.
Eventually, the British may get
some of the extra share of Mar
shall aid they have asked for.
They hope to get more go!4 from
South Africa. Cripps will trim
dollar imports into the sterling
area by some hundreds of mil
lions. Devaluation may slow the
,ed flight jm tte pound,
The impact of the economic dip
in the United States may ease
off. And so on. . . j .
t j
I This sort of thing may slow
the drain on the last reserves,
but it will not stop it Mean
while, the drain continues, dol-,
lar by dollar, like blood drip
ping from an unhealed wound.
What is heeded is a bold and
"drastic operation to heal the
wound. One sort of operation is
'obvious. It is to try to erect
a separate and artificial econ
omy, insulated against the mag
netism of the American econ
omy. This is, in fact, the direc- '
tion in which Cripps' dollar cuts.
Stiffening 'controls, and bilateral
deals are pointing,
i There may be no alternative.
But it is certainly worth look
ing for one. For historically this
sort of economic separation in
evitably leads to political sepa
ration. And there is nothing, no
thing at alL which would more
clearly assure the realization of
Soviet ambitions than a sharp,
angry split between, the United
States and Great Britain.

Traveler Finds France Shaking off
Post-War Woes Faster than Britain

No traveler making as brief a
orney as I did this summer can
tope to make a very complete
or authoritative report on "con
ditions" abroad. He can tell a
few of the things that impresesd
him, both about people and
things, and leave the rest to the
experts.
That Is what I propose to do,
so I've listed a few items under
appropriate headings simply as
notes. All I can say about them
Is that they are the impressions
of a tourist who saw Europe
briefly before the war, rather
extensively during it, and now
again quickly four years after
V-E Day. t
Eaglaad: My dominant impres
sion is that Britain Is better off
than in 1949 but not too much
better.
There's no doubt that the ba
sic economic problems of the
British empire touch the man in
the street and the American
tourist in his hotel.
The food is only a little bet
ter than in 1943, but there isn't
a great deal more of it, either
In quantity or variety. True,
the restaurants usually have ev
erything they show on their
menus (not true four years ago),
and they sometimes will give you
an extra portion of dessert or
even of the main course.
The five - shilling maximum
($1.00) still holds for meals, but
house charges have increased..
As matters stand, one pays $2.00
or $2.50 for a slim meal of soup,
rather scraggly fried chicken
and ice cream, in a west end
hotel. The service is excellent,
but the rations are short. France,
20 miles away, is such a con
trast! France Is Contrast
The shops in Britain are full,
and English friends told us
that they could buy about what
they wanted in the way of cloth

very high income tax rates (45
per cent minimum).
London has brightened con
siderably since the war, but

Literary
THE BODY, By William San
son (Harcourt, Brace; $2.75).
Br W. G. Rogers
Henry Bishop, a placid, con
tented little man in bis com
fortable forties, is pottering in
his garden one afternoon when
he, unseen, catches sight of a
stranger gawking insolently up
at the window of Madge's bath
room. The window slams shut
the stranger blows a kiss and
walks away. :
What's ' this, says Henry to
himself, what's this? He and
Madge married happily, or at
least congenially, some 20 years,
and this should happen to him!
Madge calls him to tea; puzzled
and disturbed, he starts in; the
bell rings; there's the stranger, a
Mica wberish creature and a new
next-door neighbor . who has
come to borrow a screwdriver.
This back-slapping, hail-fellow-well-met
neighbor, named Diver,
cracks wise with Madge, who
finds his stale jokes funny, and
finally invites them to dinner.
Henry's suspicions have been
awakened and he nurses them
diligently on the news of a con

of painters and not of builders.
In the whole enormous area be
tween St. Paul's cathedral and
the City, wiped clean by a Ger
man air raid in a single Sunday
afternoon in 1941, we could not
discern a single new business or
office building going up.
Signs promising immediate
rebuilding of such-and-such a
business premises were in place
in several instances. The only
thing was, the same signs had
been there in 1944, and nothing
has been done since. Only the
signs are more weathered.
Britoas Pleased at Progress
British people, however, are
rather pleased at the progress
1 that has been made, and feel that
their capital is looking rather
well in comparison with its di
lapidated state right after the
war. This is probably true, but
to an outsider, it seems rather sad
that more couldn't have been
done. . "
The people seem optimistio,
but in a sort of determined, pur
poseful way, as thought it were
just as necessary as it was dur
ing the war to keep a stiff upper
lip and a bold front. It probably
is, for that matter.
We met dissatisfaction with
the Labour government. People
whom I had known in the Brit
ish services four and five years
ago were pretty outspoken in
hoping for an end of socialist
government and some of them
had voted for it, or at least
watched its advent without
alarm.
No Good Words for Attlee
Even more striking was the
number of taxi drivers, bus col
lectors, clerks, etc., who seemed
to have no good words to say for
Attlee & Co. But. frankly, it
seemed to me that the U. K. was
in the same position as the U. S.
last yean much oral dissatisfac
tion with the way things were
going politically, but broad,
quiet support for Labour which
would show at the polls. After
all, the Tories haven't given the
people free glasses and dry
cleaned their new wigs free of
charge.
(Perhaps I should emphasize
here that no 10-day visitor can
expect to form very worthwhile
views on any such intricate sub
ject as this. But. as I remarked
earlier, these are notes, not a
consensus of authoritative opin
ion.) y Franee: So near and. yet so
' far! Britons flying, as we did.

signs he does not see he imag

might be interpreted either as
exonerating Madge or convicting
her, he chooses the unfavorable

Diver's friends so that he can

proves to be good enough for a
gullible man like himself.

We had a week end in the
chateau country of the Loire at
the town of Blois (pop. 15,000).
I noticed that some young men
of the USAF or the RAF had
neatly removed about five arches
from the local stone bridge
across the Loire some five years
ago, and in doing so had re
moved about 30 per cent of
downtown Blois.
This summer, the Bloisians (or
whatever they are) had finish
ed redoing their bridge, and
were rebuilding their business
buildings, not one by one, but
seemingly all at the same time.
The place was full of stone cut
ters, l masons, hoists, and ex-GI
bulldozers. One had the im
pression that Blois hadn't been
so busy since Francis I redid
the chateau on the too of 'the
hill over the town. And that
was 400 years ago.
It is worth noting that the
French monuments remain as
they always have, in fairly (but
not exceptionally) good repair,
but always accessible to the
public and usually equipped
with well-informed guides who
operate at very .slight expense.
This means much for sight-seeing.

In elderly people, what are
known as cerebral vascular ac
cidents are by no means infre
quent Changes in the blood ves
sels and circulation which come
with old age are fundamentally
responsible for all such incidents,
including bleeding into the brain,
the ; occurrence of an embolism,
or the formation of a clot in
one of the blood vessels of the
brain.
Doctors speak of embolism
when a bit of material, such as
a blood clot fragment breaks
away from its original location
and travels through the blood
stream to lodge in some other
part of the body.
Anything which affects the
brain is serious and when any
of the conditions mentioned
above occur, the first concern is
to save the patients life. Once
this danger has been overcome,
it is necessary to employ treat

During this first stage, skill

patient should be in a quiet
room, should be given fluids and
nourishment by mouth, if poss

given by Injection into a vein
or under the skin. The patient's
position in bed must be changed
frequently. Sedative or quieting
drugs are used carefully and
