other swipe at the grass witn
chugging mowers Saturday be
fore the return of hometowner
Dwlght David Eisenhower.
The boy from the wrong aide
of the railroad tracks, now a
general about to return to civ

commotion seen here since Abil
ene was the railhead for the old
Jesse Chisholm cattle trail.
Taking It In Stride
But Abilene residents, includ
ing old friends of the general and
new citizens who have never laid
eyes on him, insisted they were
taking this homecoming inmg
calmly.

McCarran Demands
Fighting Policies
To Combat Russia
' Washington (U.R) Sen. Pat
McCarran called on the State
department Saturday to adopt a
"fighting policy" In Us anti-
Russia propaganda efforts to
arouse people behind the Iron
curtain.
The Nevada Democrat, chair
man of the Senate appropriations
sub-committee on the State de
partment, made the atatement in
releasing a 72-page analysis by
. the department of its "Voice of
America" and other propaganda
activities.
McCarran aaid In an acconv
panylng statement that Congress
and administration officials must
constantly evaluate the program.
He said that each phase of the
17, S. propaganda effort "must
be tailored to the assigned mis
sion." "We must learn," he said, "to
look through the eyes of our
audience and abandon the super
ior, almost patronizing tones of
a rich and moral uncle addres
sing poor relatives.
"Our propaganda must ba dir
ected to their Interests, their
self-esteem, their hopes for the
future."
"In short we need a fighting
policy, aiming at the soonest
possible collapse of the Red hier
archy, and we need techniques
of psychological warfare to
match such a policy."

realize a lot of outsiders may
get excited about the homecom

Outsiders may number 100,000

ing device powerful enough to
change a searing blast of 600
degree air into snow within two
tenths of a second is under pro
duction in the U. S according

craft Industries association.
Designed to solve the cockpit
cooling problem in high-speed
aircraft, the magazine Planes

Kefauver has toured the state

months and was confident that
he could whip the Brown slate

Brown's slate Includes such
Democratic figures as George

ily to party coffers In past years;
Navy Secretary Dan A. Kimball,
and former Governor Culbert L,

land has been one of the severest
critics of Democratic foreign
policy during hla past term in
the Senate.
Thirty congressional races also

tests for 80 seats in the state
assembly and 20 in the state

Can Quit In 5 Years
Five years after joining the
pension club, the star, secretary
or script girl can quit and start
drawing the old age security.
The longer she works, of course,
the more pension she collects.
The youngest luminary eligi

has a husband to support her.
Other pensioners who could quit
and collect any day include

a television shop to ask for a

he told the office girl his name
"Mr. Taft" there was silence.
"You know Taft, as In Sen

"I know and that's the

What is a red-hot mama? That's
what a London reporter asked
Sophie Tucker, who is still

'It s a girl who desn t sit around

Miss Tucker has a new song
titled "Red Hot Mamas Don't

Among the Marriad
The screening of the wives of
candidates for executive posi
tions continues. When a married
college graduate applies for a
position with some large organ
ization, his wife is also inter
viewed. She is subject to close
observation as to taste in dress,
mannerisms, conversational abil
ity, etc. Her opinions are care
fully considered. Some organiza
tions include two dinner dates
in the routine. One at the house
of one of the company's top ex
ecutives, another at the candi
dates house for the same execu
tive. This is to see how the wife
handles herself socially and how
she keeps house.
Easier Eggs
As to how hard-boiled eggs got
Into the Easter Sunday picture.
The Romans consumed no eggs
during Lent. On Easter Sunday
the ban was lifted. Eggs were
again on the Roman menu. The
Romans ate only boiled eggs,
The fried egg is of Irish origin,
as is the combination of bacon
and eggs. I still haven't found
out who first put a poached egg
on corned beef hash. II and
when I do find out who this cul
inary criminal was, I am going
to put his picture up in my per

Whip
Is the whip necessary in thor
oughbred racing? Many people,
including some trainers, think it
isn't. Trainer Tom Taylor be
lieves the use of the whip has
brought about the loss of many
races. The horse getting the beat
ing resents it, is thrown off
stride or loses his will to win. In
any event, it is not a pleasant
sight to see a jockey brutally
beating a horse in the run for

Redheads
Queen Elizabeth I of England
was a redhead. So I note it
stated. Elizabeth was a dish
water blonde. In a desperate at
tempt to glamorize herself she
wore red wigs. On the other
hand, Mary Queen of Scots was
a redhead. She was the first
bride to wear a white wedding
gown. Before that the brides
wore red. Mary thought a red
gown and red hair a bad combi
nation. So she switched to white.
Speaking of wedding gowns and
strawberry blondes, redhaired
women rarely marry redhaired
men. When they do, all their
children are redheads. There's
nothing to the claim that red
heads have bad tempers. Proba
bly just propaganda circulated
by envious brunettes. However,
it is true redheads can't stand the
sun. United States forces never
send a redhead to the tropics. If
you see a redhead with a good
sun tan, she is probably featur
ing a dyed hair job. That's all
about redheads except to ask if
you ever saw a redheaded Jap
anese. There are some. Five are
reported living in Tokyo.
Horses !t Women
Right now in the U.S.A. one
in every four married women is
working for a salary. This is the
all-time record for married ca
reer girls. It has its advantages.
Brings more customers into the
general market. Increases the
number of smartly turned out
females. Makes the working
wives more independent. This
inspires husbands to keep on
their toes to keep their wives
contented. Fellow with a career
girl wife has to watch his step
nowadays. The separate pay
check has Increased divorce. In
conclusion we once more call at
tention to the fact that in some
States the husband has legal con
trol over his wife's pay check.
That is, he can direct how the
money should be spent.
Rings
As a ring for .divorcees there
was a clever one originated 30
years ago. This ring worn on the
same finger as the wedding ring
features a broken cupid's arrow.
I hear a lot about divorcees'
rings but so far I have never
seen any woman wearing one.
Still there should be some'way
to distinguish a widow from a
wife, and a widow from a di
vorcee. D CI A VI

"Manj American girls go to

"Scholarly learning is posi

"The general level of conver
