Entitled "Soul Searching," it refers to the 10 tons of teakwood given to President Eisenhower by Pre mier U Nu of Burma. It goes like this: ev "Now what's a ton of teak wood cost?" The President asked his aide. "For I've got ten, as U Nu's host. And an accounting must be made." "It all depends," Firm Sher man said, "On what motivates the donor. "I'm sure that he, as Bur ma's head, Believes in strictest honor. "He seeks no arms, nor mu tual aid, In exchange for teakwood slivers. And yet the charges may be made That we must dam his riv ers." "Your counsel's wise," the chief replied, "We'll treat it as a loan. And Jim can say that Drew has lied, When they get him on the phone. "You keep your wool, and Persian rug. Though Goldfine's on the griddle, I'll keep my teak and Ne pal knives, And slowly start to whittle. "No matter what the head lines state, About a finely tailored suit, We'll build a teakwood ship of state, To haul away our loot." Then there's the wisecrack about the danger of Ike giv ing Sherm a vote of no confi dence. If we have a succession of assistants to this President the U. S. government will be as unstable as that of France. Thimble Thumbs The Thimble Thumbs Sew ing club met at the home of Judy Scott June 23. The meet ing was called to order by President Judy Scott.
