GRIMSLEY
Sir Norman is the sedate, gray
haired boss of Australian tennis
who has just seen his country suc
cessfully defend the Davis Cup for
the third
straight year.
He was
instrumental in the de
velopment of the pair of 19-year-olds,
Ken. Rosewall and Lewis
Hoad, who put the skids under! the
most potent cup team the United
States has produced since 1949.
The final crusher of American
hopes wai dealt Thursday by little,
140-pound Rosewall, who upended
Wimbledon Champion Vic Seixas
for the seventh straight time, 6-2,
2-6. 6-3, 6-4.
His triumph .ia a rain-postponed
match followed a five-set victory
by Lew Hoad over U. S. Champion
Tony Trabert Wednesday and gave
tennis-crazed Australia the chal
lenge round and the cup 3-2.
The way Australia's so-called
"teenage twins" did tire job was
remarkable in consideration of ex
treme pressures involved and pro
voked the very interesting ques
tion:
Who
i$
going to take the ; cup
from , Australia
in the next ; few
years
Talberif, one of the most popular
and efficient of all U. S. Davis
Cud captains, saw no immediate
s answer.
: We tl , have , Tonv
uhn cprtainlv ranks as
Trabert,
good as
any amateur in me wona. i tai
bert said. "But it is obvious we
in the United States are going to
have to develop some new young
players if we are to remain in the
keen cup competition.
"Rosewall and Hoad were de
veloped In a single year. There is
no reason why our country, 'with
more than 150 million people, can't
do the same thing.

With Red Propaganda
(Editor's Note An American
,in the Sovet Union hears all
sorts of stories about the United
States. Tjiey are Jtie fruit of a
dia of never-ceasing propaganda.
In this fifth of his series of arti
cles, William L. Ryan tells of
the propaganda and of the ques
tions Russians propounded to him.)
By WILLIAM L. RYAN
AP Foreign- News Analyst
Loudspeakers constantly blast:
propaganda into the streets of the ;
Soviet republics' capitals.
Nobody j seems to be paying the
slightest attention. It is as if the
people had an immunity to the
fretful nagging voices which never
seem to tire of saying the same
things, jj
Aged yomen sweep away end
lessly at 'the streets, utterly obliv
ious to ;the loudspeakers above
them laying down the principles
of "socialist competition.!'
On Stalin Street in Tashkent, cap-!
ital of the Uzbek S.R.R. a loud
speaker jabove a movie theater
blasts a lecture at a Sunday crowd
about the importance of the tasks
of animal husbandry. But the city
just moves along with the odd sort
of shuffling noise which marks
many an eastern city, j

U.S.S.Ri
An evening crowd leaves I the
opera in Kiev, capital of the : Uk
raine, fDH of the memory of rich
Ukrainian voices, and heads; di
rectly into the din of loudspeakers
above the big square, .crying out
the latest anti-American propa
ganda in the form of a news broad
cast. It gets no apparent atten
tion. Everywhere one turns in the So
viet Union, :there is propaganda.
It assaults both eyes and ears.
The drearv Uamwip'ss nf its ton
accentuates the sense of drabness
and monotony.
Frequently propaganda goes in
for specialization. In Central Asia,
where the Communists must di-
rect their propaganda to Soviet
minority populations, the Ameri
can Negro singer Paul Robeson
has been built up to hero propor
tions. A big portrait of him ranked
first in a display of pictures of
Stalin prize winners along: the
streets of- Alma Ata, capital of the ,
Kazakh Republic. The display was
in honor of the Nov. 7 revolution
anniversary; The picture also was
in evidence in neighboring 4,'zbek-
stan. ;
Going the1 rounds of all the So
viet republics is the violently! anti
American I motion picture, "Silver
Dust." This, too, plays up the
theme of American persecution of
minorities. The film, is a fantastic
story about the invention of a new
weapon in the form of a powder
which can wipe out ast areas but
leave them uncontaminated. The
story Soviet citizens see is that
of American army generals, in al
liance with! a priest, the Ku Klux
Klan, a former Nazi general and
big business, planning to use six
Negroes as human guinea pigs to
test their! hew weapon.
With propaganda like that, it is
small wonder that in the Soviet
republics j populated by minority
peoples I was asked so many ques
tions about Robeson. There was a
strong impression the American
singer was cruelly persecuted. They
seem almost obsessed with the
idea. j j
The propaganda is one of a num
ber of depressing features of a
journey through the Soviet repub
lics'. Aside! from the general air
of monotony, it is discouraging to
realize just how cut off from the
rest of the world these people have
been. I
What do they think of the United
States I I
They know woefully little; about
America in fact about any West
ern country in today's terms. They
have only the scraps of misinfor
mation and propaganda which ap
pear in their controlled press. The
remarks! and questions encoun
tered by a traveller display an
abysmal i ignorance.
Some think Harry S. Truman is
boss in the United States; others
that if Truman is not actually
president, he has much to do with
running America, because they be
lieve the! Democratic and Repub
lican parties work together to hold
down the I working classes..
My answers to questions were
listened j to eagerly, sometimes
with disbelief, but always with deep
interest. Some of the questions:
A school teacher In Kazakhstan:
"Do they have an opera house in
the United States?"
- A woman in Uzbekstan: "Do
many children go to school in
America?"
An engineer in Stalingrad: "Why
does Mr.j Dulles (Secretary of
State John Foster Dulles) want a
war?" . !
Many Soviet citizens have heard
rumors that a vast number of
American j workers have automo
biles. This is almost incredible to
them. To! own an automobile in
the Soviet; Union a worker has to
save fori years and. go through piles
of red tape. He gets no Tar before
he -has a garage for it, and to get
a garage j bef must have ; official
permission plus an allotment of
land and the materials. There are
not many? . privately owned J auto
mobiles iri the Soviet Union by any
Western: standards.
Communist propaganda' about
America ; and Americans,! which
never ceases in Soviet ! republics,
is believed- implicitly, by those
bronghtj up in. strict party disci
pline, but it meets skepticism in
some surprising circles, j
: What the campaign bas ; accom
plished is: to make the Sovjet peo
ple afraid. Everywhere; I went in
the Soviet Union, one question al
ways wai asked: "Will there be
peace?f j ;- ;.. ';j-.

NEW YORK m Who is Amer

There's no official answer to the
question. But there are many sug
gestions. As the nation's cjiurches and syn
agogues draw the curtain on the
year's work, it's a time of sum
ming up what has been done and
bow well.
How effective, during the year.1
were the Lord's modern disciples?
Who among them held highest the
torch, served best the cause?
It has become a national custom
to single out the best actor, j the
top athlete, the prettiest girl, the
best-dressed woman, prize writers,
the father of the year, even the
best cook.
But no such attention has been
given the outstanding defenders of
the faith. So who. at this year's
close, might be such a one?

Old Year Out
Over World
By STANLEY GODFREY
LONDON UP Merrymakers in
the streets and squares of western
Europe danced in the New Year
Thursday blotting from their
minds for the moment the thought
that 1954 could bring 'either an
era of atomic hope or despair.
From Moscow to London came
L reports of gay parties and revelry
There was a fancy dress ball in
the' great place of the Kremlin.
In London's famed Paccadilly
Circus traditional magnet for
revelers the statue of the cupid
Eros was given a protective wrap-
i ping against the usual pranksters
In Moscow,; some 2,000 'young
shockworkers. students and officer
cadets packed the Kremlin Palace
for the 'New Year's ball. The Mos
cow radio reported other "Mam
moth celebrations" were under
way throughout the Red capital.
Hotels and night spots through
out the continent reported sellout
business at sky-high prices.
In London, dinner for two with
a bottle of champagne thrown in
cost around 10 pounds ($28) at
lush cabarets. In Paris, charges
rocketed to the Franc, equivalent
of (42 a , head.
On both'sides of the Iron Curtain
people jammed churches i at mid
night to offer up prayers for peace
in 1954. j '!
In New Year's message's, the
statesmen of Europe voiced the
highest hopes that the last of the
world's bloody struggles ' would
end and that no new ones? would
start. Most of them said tfte out
