(Continued from Page One)
"as a weapon of expansion . . . harnessed to the same chariot
of expansion."
"The Soviets are, in short, waging total cold war," he
said.. "The only answer to a regime that wages total cold
war is to wage total peace."
The President dealt at length with his conviction that
until the Russians are willing to negotiate a genuine peace,
this country and the West have no choice but to improve
their military strength. He conceded "that we are probably
somewhat behind the Soviets in some areas of long-range
ballistic development."
Aircraft Said Powerful Deterrent
He said, however, that he was convinced "that if we
make the necessary effort, we will have the missiles, in
the needed quantity and in time, to sustain and strengthen
the deterrent power of our increasingly effective bombers."
In this connection he said American aircraft constitute
"the most powerful deterrent to war in the world today"
with their retaliatory power.
. "They present to any potential attacker who would un
leash war upon the world the prospect of virtual annihila
tion ..."
The President was optim
istic about the American de
velopment of intermediate
ballistic missiles and particu
larly, the development of the
submarine-based Polaris mis
sile system. He said produc
tion of both intermediate and
intercontinental missiles
would be accelerated.
He pointed out that this

Military strength today:
Even if our bases should be

the President said, "we should

Country Store
Retains Early
Day Operation
Easley, Mo. Tucked away
in the rolling hills along the
Missouri river south of Colum
bia is a general store, vintage
1890.
A pot-bellied stove stands
amid groceries, tools and bolts
of cloth Jtlst as it did at the
close of the last century when
William G. Easley founded the
store. The small community
was named for him.
Descendants of the founder,
Hall Easley and his nephew,
Raymond Easley and his wife,
operate the store today with
out a change.
It is open seven days a week
12 hours a day and Sun
day is the busiest. On that
day, the 30 townsfolk and per
sons from nearby communt
ties arrive to shop and visit.
No Hurry
They find fresh foods and
an ornate scale operated by
hand manipulation of little
weights. The scale bears a
1957 stamp of approval from
the weights and measures di
vision of the state department
of agriculture.
Bolts of bright material
catch the eyes of women cus
tomers who are allowed to
spread it out and take as long
as they need to make up their
minds. Mrs. Easley refuses to
hurry them. The customer, she
explained, must take the ini
tiative. Farm tools and work
clothes, even lanterns, are
available to the men. And the
children find jars of candy
set invitingly near on worn
counters. School supplies are
the kind used a half century
ago, not a slick sheet 'of paper
among them.
A TV Set
Only one modern note can
be seen in the store. A tele
vision set was brought in by
the Easley family when that
new-fangled invention first
was prQduced. Most of the
time it stands unused. As soon
as the novelty wore off, custo
mers returned to the circle of
chairs around the stove and
got back to exchanging com
munity news and gossip.
Hall Easley, patriarch of
the 67-year-old store, recalls
when the town of Easley was
a stopover for showboats ply
ing the Missouri river. He re
calls performances aboard the
Goldenrod, a showboat now
tied up at the St. Louis levee
for daily shows, and the old
Wonderland.
Now, the store provides the
brightest bit of entertainment
annually. The Easley family
plays host to the customers at
a Christmas party during the
holiday season. Santa is pres
ent to distribute gifts.

New England
Color Credited
To Anthocyanins
Amherst, Mass. (IF)
"There is literally no other
spot in the world that can
compare with the vividness. of
New England foliage."
That statement comes from
a man who should know Dr.
Theodore T. Kozlowski, head
of the department of botany
at the University of Massachu
setts. He explained that the New
England countrysides owe
their brilliance to pigments
called anthocyanins, which
are responsible for the reds,
pinks, and purples that are
mixed into the autumn colora
tion. Anthocyanin pigments are
present the year round in a
few trees such as copper
beech and the crimson king
variety of Norway maple. In
many other trees anthocya
nins form only in the autumn
when cool weather conditions
prevail.
However, Dr. Kozlowski ex
plained, many trees do not
form the anthocyanins, but
instead, contain pigments call
ed carotenes and xanthophylls
which produce colors of yel
low poplar and hickory with
their clear, yellow colors are
examples of trees that lack
anthocyanins.
Little Change In Some
Then again, some trees con
tain admixtures of red antho
cyanin with yellow carotene,
the result a bright orange
color. Changes in the color of
the leaves of a tree are due to
the decrease in temperature
and the decline in the produc
tion of the green substance
chlorophyll.
Thus, by the disintegration
of the green pigment and the
unmasking of yellow or the
formation of red. pigments (or
both), the leaves may assume
various shades of yellow,
orange, crimson, purple, or
red.
Dr. Kozlowski said some
species such as the alders and
locusts show little change.
Others such as poplars, gink
go, honey locust, beech and
birches show various degrees
of yellow. However, the most
dazzling displays are seen in
the reds of maples, sassafras,
staghorn sumac, white oak,
shadbush and others which
form large amounts of the an
thocyanin pigments.
Other trees, such as oaks,
usually reach their full colora
tion later in the fall; usually
after the best maple color has
gone. The yellow-brown col
ors of beeches and some oaks
are products of yellow pig- i
ments and a browner pigment
(tannin) in the leaves.
