Summary of GOP Platform On Foreign Policy, Civil? Shorn Party Stand Corruption Rights Chicago (U.R) Topical summary of the 1952 Republican platform: FOREIGN POLICY ' The Democrats have "lost the peace;" they fumbled and vacil lated in a futile attempt to "con tain" Communism. They invited war in Korea, then refused to fight it to win. Republicans will clean out the State Department and fire diplomats who helped to engineer the present plight. They will wage peace and win it. They will support collective security abroad, but will limit economic and military aid to what we can afford. They will give Asia equal priority with Europe, and won't overlook the Americas either. RECIPROCAL TRADE The party favors expansion of world trade. Reciprocal trade agreements will be continued on a basis of ''true reciprocity" and with protection of domestic in dustry against unfair import competition. NATIONAL DEFENSE Our arms program is "dis gracefully lagging." Russia may not wait. So GOP will develop with "utmost speed" an air, land and sea force "in being, as distinguished from paper plans, able to deter aggression or repel attack. "Completely ade quate'' air power will be built as fast as possible.

The party pledges federal action against lynching, poll taxes, and segregation in the na tional capital. It will enact "legis lation to further just and equita ble treatment in the area of discriminatory employment prac tices." This won't apply where states end such practices on their own. COMMUNISM The administration has ap peased Communism at home and abroad: Reds have infiltrated the government. Lives and dol lars have been lost, as- has the secret of the atomic bomb. There are no Communists in the GOP. A Republican president will overhaul loyalty programs and hire only persons of "unques tioned loyalty."

Adjustment Needed For New-Born Babes Milwaukee (UP) A Marquette University faculty member says a new baby "may need a three month "shakedown run" just like a new car. . Dr. Kenneth J. Winters, pedi atrics instructor at Marquette's medical school, said "the baby may look all right when it ar rives, but its digestion and oth er functions may need just a little tuning like an automo bile." He said a crabby, red faced baby usually needs about three months to get its digestion set tled. During that period the tiny child gets over the colic. Dr. Winters said, and after that he "should run as good as new." He said grandma's old fash ioned ideas of infant care pa cifiers for the baby to suck on and rocking cradles could give modern mothers a lot of help in getting the babies safely through their trying "test run."
