In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
At his news conference in
Washington the other morning,
State Secretary Dulles passed
out to the reporters a prepared
statement in which (along with
quite a few other things) he said:
"International communism is
in a state of perplexity and at
internal odds because certain ba
sic truths have caught up with
it. One such truth is that com
munism has great difficulty in
being an effective instrument of
cold war without such iron dis
cipline and brutal terrorism as
Stalin employed. The other truth
is that such rule will not be in
definitely tolerated by tl.ose sub
ject thereto uuless at least it pro
duces a succession of victories."
He added:
"With the lack of victories,
there is revolt against the harsh
discipline exemplified by Stalin.
As a result, the communist par
ties are in a state of discomfiture."
DULLES has two faults.
He talks, I think, a little
too much.
When he talks, he talks like
a doctor of philosophy, and so
a lot of what he is saying goes
over the heads of most of us.
But
In this case

thing that if true is very important.
have come to the conclusion that
the "iron discipline and brutal
terrorism" that were employed
by Stalin to keep nimself on top
will no longer be tolerated by
the people who are the victims
of it and so the communist
despots will have to become
MILDER and more reasonable if
they are to keep their jobs.
Hence the recent "good fel
low" pose that has been adopted
by Kruschev, Bulganm & Co.
I HOPE Dulles is right in his
statement that as a result of
the dilemma they face the com
munist despots are in a "state of
discomfiture." But history tells
us that in such a situation there
are TWO possibilities:
1. Maybe, as a result of the
discomfiture, the communist big
shots will be afraid to start a
war that might backfire on them.
2. MAYBE THEY'LL START
A WAR TO END THE DISCOM
FITURE AND KEEP THEM
SELVES IN THE SADDLE.
Is That So?
Ever wondered how every
animal species has developed an
intercom system a method ol
getting word across to its part
ner? For instance, we hear wolf
calling wolf a thousand yards
apart: and immediately they are
in direct and understandable
communication.
With some animals, this "talk"
is based upon sight, in others
hearing, in some upon touch, in
the majority upon smell and to
some extent a combination of
all these senses, together with
a wonderful profound instinc
tive understanding.
This intercommunication sys
tem can be unbelievably com
plex. Consider: The female jewel
fish turns a Vermillion red; to
perceive and react to this, the
male has developed a fine sense
of color recognition. (With the
exception of man and the pri
mates, mammals cannot see
red!)
The she-moose has evolved a
call a lone whine while her
mate, to recognize it and get its
romantic implications a half-
mile away, has developed a rec
ognition for it even though he
never heard it before in his life.
The tiny male moth smells his
future mate downwind just

think of the vast amount of air
which must contain her infi
nitesimal particles of identify
ing odor and of the remarkable
sensitivity of the male's smell
ing organs. And at a mile away,
the male can evenj determine
the exact species even though
there are thousands of moths
perfuming the air at the' same
time. What is even more un
usual, he can determine whether
she is ready to be his mate; and
yet, remember these moths come
together just once in a lifetime!
Unlearned Sensa
Locked within the animal's
being is a remarkable unlearned
sense of recognition. They hear,
they smell, they feel and they
understand.
Yet change the moose's call
and the cow will not respond:
alter the chemical content of
the moth's perfume and the
male will not respond; alter the
jewel fish's color and her mate
will hasten off for a new con
sort; change the feather color
and hair-do of a bird and even
though the pair have, mated and
built a nest together, the male
will rout the female from their
bower.
To appreciate the sensitivity
of this communication system,
let's look at our dogs upon whom
many experiments have been
conducted in the laboratory. It
has been found that dogs were
able not only to recognize the
presence of nitrobenzol in a so
lution of 11200th of 1 per cent
but also to detect this micro
scopic trace when it was dis
guised with pungent flower
scents, tar and cinnamon. The
human could scare el y do
l1000ths as well.
What a man can hear at 175
yards by straining his inaccurate
ears, a dog can hear easly ten
times as far away, at a mile!
And he hears with fine discrim
ination. Not only has the dog
an astonishing talent for discern
ing the exact pitch of sounds
distinguishing e a si 1 y between
two adjacent notes on the piano,
but his discrimination is so beau
tifully precise that he can also
distinguish between quarter
tones!
In addition, :he dog has an
extraordinarily well - developed
sense of the location of sounds,

which to. all appearances, is
much better than the human's.
Now that the season for ex
changing information between
males and females is approach
ing an observer can sometimes
see the wild animals employ all
the organs of intercommunica
tion: smell, hearing, feeling and
sight. As two rival bucks come
together, they will raise the hair
on their backs as does the wolf,
cat or moose. This increases the
size and certainly makes the an
imal appear more formidable to
the rival. Thus, through .vision,
it will try to instill fear before
lighting.
Besides this, the animal may
discharge a scent as does the
mink, goaf, or caribou invok
ing the olfactory sense. He may
also roar as does the lion, wal
rus, or bear adding the audi
tory sense.
Should this all not produce tne
desired effect upon the rival,
then the fourth, the tactile sense
is invoked by the use of the
deer's hooves, the rat's teeth, the
racoon's claws, or the buffalo's
horns sometimes with mortal
results. But that's communica
tion in the wild.

THE thing for us all to do, I'm
quite sure, is to keep our
fingers crossed and keep our
powder dry.
WHAT he is trying to tell us is
that in his opinion the Krem
lin despots are facing the same
dilemma that has been faced by
despots since the world began.
That is to say:
Despotism involves iron dis
cipline and brutal terrorism.
People will stand for iron dis
cipline and brutal terrorism IN
TIME OF WAR, when the despot
is winning victory after victory
and it looks like the time is
coming when he and his people
will RUN THE WORLD and
every thing will be lovely.
But thy WON'T stand for iron
discipline and brutal terrorism
in time of peace.
History more or less confirms
that judgment.
