We say discriminatory be cause the small man, the com mon ' man has proved the least able to combat unfairness.

I Editorial Correspondence Boston, Mass., Aug. 6 It never fails! Just as we entered Boston over the B & A, the weather record was broken all samee as wherever we have been since May. Only it wasn't heat this time it was rain. Four inches in two days, and the worst lightning storm in 50 years. This isn't official, but it is the story of the taxi-man and Boston taxi-men just don't lie. The rain for 48 hours is a new record for August since the Pil grims landed at Plymouth Rock in what wag that date? Our guess is 1620 tho' that may have been Virginia. (Don't bother, junior, we will look it up later.) e- Whenever the subject :of favorite cities comes up we always list ours as New York, San Francisco and New Orleans, in that order. (Just a minute, General! little cities and as places to visit, put that in your C of C pipe and smoke it!) e e . Don't understand why we have never included Boston. Per haps because we have been here so seldom since 1903. For it should rank far iip in our list; in fact if and when Ralph Kooier's, "communistic state" arrives and the undersigned is given his choice between being liquidated, Jackson County, we hope the local Commissar will be fairly de- cent and send us to Boston. For declining years if one can AFFORD it. Not that it would require so in Boston one should have a car that isn't over 50 years old, and a chauffeur not over 99. For unless one has been born here, it is an almost impossible task to get around and see what should be seen and enjoyed. We . don't, refer to the streets, narrow as alleys, and laid out not, by a surveyor, but a revolutionary cow (and a cow that had just made a meal, cairn's sour-mash); but to the which are unique and as peculiar to Boston, as pie for breakfast, and that old chesnut about the Lodges, Cabots and God. ' In other words if .your ancestors did NOT come over in the "Mavflower" ours came over in the Good Shin "Sunshine and landed at Philadelphia in 1716 if anyone is interested (We don't believe anyone is, except perhaps, the District Attorney), and you haven't lived on Beacon Street since the battle of Bunker Hill, nor more recently in the vicinity or the Dedham "Common"; it is next to impossible to live in this "Hub'? of learning, culture and codfish, and enjoy yourself. So we hope when the revolution DOES come and of course that only requires four more years rule by the Democrats that the subterranean ."mines" of Boston or Cambridge might be selected, instead of the salt mines of Siberia or Keokuk, Iowa, for the undersigned's final relaxing place. . Not only did our arrival mark a record-breaking thunder-and-rainstorm for August, but it broke a 40-day drought which was so serious that federal aid had been requested. Again, according to our well-informed taxi driver (most taxi drivers are well informed but the Boston variety leads them all) this rain is worth 40 mil lion dollars to the farmers of this state judging the value of the fsrms along the B & A right of way from Albany to Boston we should place this figure, however, as somewhat inflated. e Well anyway, ladies and gentlemen it IS a great country! And we don't mean merely Grants Pass, but the entire U.S.A. from the Golden Gate to the Battery. One has only to cover that: territory to feel a bit sorry for Uncle Joe! Whatever delusions of grandeur he may have, he is riding to a fall when he assumes, either that democracy is on the skids, or that he will ever divorce the people the 150,000,000-odd people from Boston harbor to the Golden Gate from their deep and abiding faith in and loyalty TO it! Yes, and willing, if need be, to fight and die for it. But that willingness to fight and die has been worrying the undersigned recently. While in R.ockford we had a talk with a World War I veteran now retired from active service, who de clared the higher-ups in Washington are seriously concerned with the number of young men applying for non-combatant service. This 'now applies even to the elite corps of fliers. In World War I arid II, there were no such applications, or at least not nearly as many, in fact more young men applied for air combat service than could be accommodated. He fears young American manhood is going soft. , We doubt it. ' But after two world wars, and a-, third threatened in a little over one generation, it might be expected that a nation as con-! genitally peaceful and non-military at the U.S.A. should become a bit fed up with it and particularly those who have to do thej fighting and dying. All experts, however, are agreed that when our young men get into it, and the shooting starts, tney fight bet ter,, more courageously and - with greater skill than any group in our national history. That is the case in Korea today. That widespread hatred of war and militarism is not going to help General Eisenhower in the approaching campaign. The fact is the General hates war more intensely and is more earnestly eager to prevent another one, than various and sundry preachers of .peace who have never had a that is the truth, it's quite a job the truth, before it is too late to Morse Assures Eisenhower Of Support for Presidency Eugene Sen. Wayne ' Morse 1 1 think a change of administra (R-Ore.) announced today that he has assured Dwight ' Eisen hower through Walter Williams and Mrs. Oswald B. Lord, di rectors of the Citizens for Eisen hower Organization, that he will give his wholeheated support to the election of Eisenhower. Senator Morse stated " I as sured Walter Williams and Mrs, Lord that they can count on me to assist them in any way that I can to help elect Eisenhower I shall be in Europe during the next month on an Armed Serv ices committee investigation but on my return to the United States shortly after Labor day I shall be available to assist in the Eisenhower campaign and I have so notified not only Wal ter Williams and Mrs. Lord in charge of the Citizens for Eisen hower Organization but also Mr. Arthur Summerf ield, chairman of the Republican National Com mittee.' . " "As has been pointed out to me it is undoubtedly true that my greatest help to Eisenhower can be among the independent voter groups of the country and I shall be glad to present to those groups my reasons why pensive legal processes. However, in 1932, in .1936, in 1940, in 1944 and in 1948, a group called the GOP learned the painful lesson that the vote in the country is controlled by you and me- not Wall street. By the same token maybe Copco et al will profit by the mistakes of others and prove that "a word to the wise, is sufficient.? Frank Koch P. O. Box 132 ' . Central Point, Ore.

Crosstown "This Is worst than being hot kitchen." Matter of Fact STALIN SPEAKS AGAIN Washington : A report of a hitherto unpublished interview with Russian dictator Joseph Stalin is receiving powerful and puzzled attention in Washington and other Western capitals. The interview was granted by Stalin to Pietro Nenni, the Italian So cialist leader, who has just re turned from a month's stay in the Soviet Union. Nenni, who went to Russia to receive a Soviet "peace prize," is universally regarded as a captive of the Italian Communist party, and thus of the Kremlin. On his return to Rome, he made no pub lic report of his conversation with Stalin, confining himself instead to the expected pro-Sovi et propaganda. But immediately after he talked to Stalin,- he went to the Italian Embassy in Moscow and described to Italian Amabassador, Mario di Stefano, the substance of what Stalin said. Nenni's report is accepted as ac curate as far as it goes. Stalin started the conversation by saying the expected things about the Soviet "will to peace. This formality over, he ques tioned Nenni at-length, display ing a surprising grasp of the details of Italian politics, about the Italian election next spring. Stalin then began to talk about Germany, and it is this- portion of the interview which is con sidered particularly interesting. e e STALIN noted that the Bonn agreement had been approved by the United States Senate. He predicted as "very probable" the election as President of General Eisenhower. He remarked that, for these reasons, he considered any further diplomatic ex changes on the subject of Ger many with the Western bloc was no more than a "propagandistic and marginal expedient" in other words without real mean ing. And. he said, he had further considered that it had become impossible to prevent the di vision of Germany into two parts on a permanent basis. Therefore, Stalin told Nenni, it was necessary to substitute an other formula for the "formula of a united and neutral Ger many." This new formula called for the creation of two entirely separate ' Germanies, which would be, he said, "military and ideological counter-weights to each other. In this situation, the "independence and security" of Eastern Germany must be "re inforced. '. Stalin then reverted to the theme of the Soviet Union's "will to peace," and on .this note the in terview ended, without reference to Korea or other problems. Nen ni reported that Stalin seemed in excellent health and spirits, and "calm and confident" throughout the interview. Stalin's attitude, Nenni implied, .was that of a man who certainly has no inten tion of making war, but who is in no hurry either to make un necessary concessions to the Western bloc. - HAVING thus described the in terview, Nenni then asked Ambassador di Stefano certain significant - questions about di Stefano's American opposite member, Ambassador to Russia George Kennan. How, he asked, was Kennan regarded in West ern diplomatic circles? Was Ken nan sincere? Did he speak for his government when he re ferred, in conversations with So viet officials, to the possibility of easing tension and eventually negotiating a peaceful settlement of the differences between East and West? Di Stefano replied firmly that Kennan was wholly sincere,, and that the Soviets were making a most serious mis take in isolating him and para lyzing his efforts. , So ends the Nenni story. As to what, if anything, it means, one man's, guess is about as good as another's. And certain points do stand .out. Nenni almost certain ly reported the Stalin interview to his ambassador . with the full knowledge and consent of the Kremlin. Equally certainly he also asked the questions about Kennan with the Kremlin's en couragement. .. Thus it is obviously dangerous to interpret the episode on its 1 By Roland Coe trapped, all afternoon in a y Joseph and Stewart Abes- face value. Yet it is at least true tl.-t Stalin's statements on Ger many seem to support the views of the more optimistic of two schools of thought which have long existed in the American government. One group of spe cialists has held that the Soviets would ultimately be willing to go to war if necessary to prevent the rearmament of West Ger many in alliance with the West. Another group has held that the Soviets in this situation would react simply by heavily rearm ing East Germany and isolating the Eastern zone absolutely from contact with the West and this, in effect, is what Stalin said to Nenni. Nenni's questions about mbassador Kennan are also considered of possible interest It is at least conceivable that th- might mean that the men in the Kremlin are considering sdme- sort of approach to the American government through Kennan. Thus the Nenni inter view with Stalin seems to hole out two rather small and quite possibly deceptive crumbs of comfort. But when this is said it must also be said that Stalin has every' reason, for appearing "calm and confident," in view of what threatens in Asia, the Mid dle East, and within the Western alliance itself.

No one of this generation, I think will EVER forget that grim and awful day when the world we and our ancestors had known changed suddenly before our eyes ' Even in the midst of war, this had been a world not wholly lacking in beauty and in human satisfactions. Then Within the span of minutes As the significance of what had happened seeped into bur consciousness, the beauty faded and the picture was filled in with black horror.

Therein lies HOPE. Hope is mankind's most prec ious possession.. - H OPE? Here's more of it: In Los Angeles, General Dwight David Eisenhower gave to the Veterans of Foreign Wars and . through the magic of the radio, television and the modern newspaper gave to ALL of us a soldier's prayer, in the form of a ten-point program for a peace ful, prosperous and happy America. HERE are his ten points whinVi ho miflinpri a, th objectives of his campaign for President of the United States: 1. Increase America's strength. 2. Win a just and lasting peace. 3.

Revive hope of a better First Steps Toward Pacific Defense Pact Features Week's News By PHIL NEWSOM United Press Foreign Analyst The week's balance sheet be tween the good and bad news in the hot and cold wars: THE GOOD 1. The United States Austral ian and New Zealand foreign ministers met in Honolulu to take the first steps toward implementing their mutual de fense pacts signed in San Fran cisco last tall, along with the Japanese peace treaty. The United States has similar pacts with the Philippines and Japan. This week's Anzus meeting was the first in a series of steps which eventually should lead to an over-all Pacific defense force similar to the North Atlantic Pa,ct which already is in opera tion. Rhea's Election Noted 2. South ' Korea's aged Presi dent Syngman Rhee won the country's first general election by better than five-to-one over his nearest rival. The election bore out predictions that Rhee, while unpopular with the South Korean assembly, still is No. 1 man with the South Korean peo ple. Best part for the United Na tions fighting in Korea was that the election should calm, for a while at least, the troubled South Korean political situation which was providing daily fare for Red propagandists. 3. Egypt apparently was weathering calmly the forced abdication of its King Farouk, and there even were hopes that Egypt and Britain now could peacefully negotiate their long standing dispute over the future of Sudan and the Suez Canal. In an exclusive interview with United Press, strong-man Maj Gen. Mohammed Naguib ap pealed for U.S. arms a condi tion which he knows must be preceded by agreement with Britain. THE BAD 1. Long-standing ill-will be tween Greece and Bulgaria flar ed into the open when the Greeks fired on Bulgarians who had seized tiny Gamma Island in the Evros River. For 10 miles the Evros forms the boundary between Greece and Bulgaria, and the island for years had been considered Greek. Both on the-spot U.N. observers and the Southern European Atlantic Pact Headquarters of U.S. Adm. Robert B. Carney were watch ing the situation closely. New French Crisis 2. Although there was no im mediate danger to the govern ment of Premier Antoine Pinay, a new crisis was brewing in France. The French were bitter because the United States agreed only to place $187,000,- 000 in "offshore" purchases with French defense firms during the coming year instead of agreeing to a $623,000,000 program such as the French had asked, cover- life in every American. 1HANK YOU, Ike.

The Veep, who has been tour ing his drought - stricken farm here, said he had "no comment" beyond that statement regard ing the President's choice for a successor at the recent conven tion. Reply to Truman His answer came in reply to a statement President Truman made Thursday at a weekly press conference in which he said he would have supported Vice President Barkley had he remained a candidate. Barkley withdrew his name before the Missouri delegation was called. After a lengthy tour of his sun-baked farm, the Veep said, "That's all I have to say about it now; right now I'm just back from chasing hogs out on the farm."

The first ac tress to do this dance was a Sari Francisco - reared entertainer, Maude Allen, who introduced it in London vaudeville. Gertrude Hoffman brought it to the U.S.A. in a sketch called "A Vision of Salome." Mary Garden danced it in the opera, but hers has been styled "a polite version." Gertie Hoffman's version was a real hot-cha presentation. The dance was such a success that a number of vaudevillians tried it. Tiese included Eva Tanguay, the "I Don't Care Girl."
