Try and -By BENNETT CERF- A CLUMSY GUEST at Dorothy Rodgers beautiful country home toppled over a priceless vase which shattered into a hundred pieces on the marble floor. Beside himself with, em barrassment and chagrin. the guest (a lifelong friend, by the way) virtually bought out a florist the next day and inundated Mrs. Rodgers with roses and other blooms. Mrs. Rodgers called him up to thank him, her opening remark being. That you, Bull? This is China Shop!" la Las Vegaa there's a eroupier in one of the posh gambling casinos who bears the Improbable name of Sher lock Feldman.

N "-mmrnm Listen to "The Voice at Music Hour," Wednesday, 8:05 p.r Visit VM Open House, Jsckson Hotel, Thursday Evening the Voice of Acheson Asserts U. S. Being Lead To War in China Washington -OffD- Former Secretary of State Dean Ache son asserted yesterday the Eisenhower administration is leading the United States to ward war with Red China ov er issues "which are not worth a single American life." The Democratic party's leading foreign policy spokes man rejected all the argu ments advanced by President Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Foster Dulles for American intervention to help the Nationalist Chinese de fend the islands they hold near the Red Chinese main land. "Horrendous Decision' ' He said this was a "hor rendous decision." The U. S. government, Acheson argued, has allowed itself to be trap ped by both the opposing Chinese forces in a conflict it cannot win. In a long public statement, Acheson urged that "cool headed friends from other countries" be consulted be fore the United States takes on a fight which could lead to another world war. The "obvious goal" for the United States now, Acheson said, should be to get the Na tionalists to withdraw from the Quemoy Islands just off the mainland. Incredible Folly' . He said it was "incredible folly" to let the Nationalists put about, one-third of their armed- forces on "untenable Quemoy." In the face of Com munist China's present air and rocket power ,he said, Quemoy "can be defended only by general war with j OOR PRIZE j VM Portable J Stereophonic Radio J Record-Player J NoHli"9 kuy iust come anrf . listen.

Our Yearly Repeat Offer! i-- BIOGRAPHY FOREST But i IN THE OUT SOME HE'S FROM of national defense and pre paredness require a stepped up training program for all reserve components of the Army. As we see it, the limi tation placed on the numer ical strength of the armed forces by Congress dictates an intensified training program to include the week end train ing that the Oregon National Guard has. recently under taken. How the training program works-An eight hour training period on two Sundays a month gives us the opportun ity for a complete realistic training program. It affords the National Guard trainee a chance to place in practice on the' ground the tactical as pects of infantry warfare that he has learned in theory in the classroom. ' Particular Advantage The outdoor type of train ing is of particular advantage to pur foo'd ' service, vehicle drivers, and communication personnel. The modern con cept of atomic warfare i. de mands thorough proficiency in high speed -mobility, dis persion of force, and decisive action on the part of ; the smaller units. Our training program is geared to achieve these ends. ' " Is this program new? No it is not. A majority of the states have already com menced this type of week end training, ' some as early as 195JV, either on a straight week end basis or on -a com bination of evening and Sun day drills. The results of this training have been most gra tifying from a standpoint of combat effectiveness of the National Guard trainee. Problems - Naturally some problems have arisen as a re sult of the change over to week end training. The great est problem arises when guardsmen are employed on Sundays, and this is true of many during the fruit harvest season. However, some, local employers have been very co operative in arranging work schedules which, permit the guardsmen to attend week end training. ; We hasten .to emphasize that, religious worship does not present a problem of any kind.

The only requirement being that the men notify their comman der of their intentions before hand. Who may participate At the present time the National Guard is the only reserve component that offers young men a chance to enlist, then finish , their high school edu cation, , then take six months of active duty training, and then finish their military ob ligation in reserve training at home. This isAt particular in terest to the young man who desires to complete his aca demic or on-the-job training without the interference of two years of active duty im posed by a draft call. At present the National Guard is permitted to enlist high school seniors and men with prior service only. I must emphasize, however, that , the . Oregon National Guard . does have a strength limitation which is now very near ceiling. When 'that strength is reached no further enlistments will be accepted. We are most interested in in creasing the strength of the local guard units before the ceiling is reached. Sen. Humphrey Claims U. S. Bows to Military Sari Mateo, Calif .-(UPD-Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey (D Minn.) said last night that the United States has permitted military policy to dominate, or even substitute for foreign policy.
