From Washington:
"Representatives of the
U.S.A. and four of its allies
will meet here Monday to be
gin mapping strategy for crit
ical disarmament negotiations
with Russia ...
"The Western preparations
took on a NEW SENSE OF
URGENCY in the wake of
Soviet Premier Nikita Khru

Thursday that Russia has
NOW ACHIEVED SUCH MIS

WHAT DOES he mean by
that?
Well-
Presumably-
He is saying that if ANY
BODY starts anything Russia
will blow him to Kingdom
Come with a mass of nuclear
armed missiles and what have
you.
WHAT DOES that amount
to?
It amounts to a threat of
MASSIVE RETALIATION.
What's massive retaliation?
It has been our ace in the
hole for a dozen years.
SO WHAT?
I'd say it sounds very
much like copy-catting us.
Copy-catting is imitation.
There is an ancient and dis
cerning proverb to the effect
that I M I T A T I O N IS THE
SINCEREST FLATTERY.
If Mr. K is imitating us, it
means that he thinks we've
got something worth imitat
ing and fears that if he doesn't
imitate us he'll come out in
the short end of the horn.
FROM FLATTERY by imi
t a t i e n, Mr. K goes to
veiled threats. He mutters in
his beard about a FANTAS
TIC new Russian weapon that
is so horrible that he can't
bring himself to mention it.
What is it?
One of our atomic scientists
thinks it might be "an orbital
H-bomb" that could be sta
tioned in space and fired or
recalled by the Russkies command.
IITHEN YOU come right

SUPPOSE the Russkies do
have in the works an "or
bital H-bomb" that can be
fired by pushing an electronic
jigger.
Instead of shivering in our
boots and running for the
brush, let's devise an orbital
contraption that can chase the
Russky contraption down and
finish it off like a bat finishes
off a mosquito.

"Sir Lancelot: "Our
strength is as the strength of

pure" and then buttress it
with another and ruggeder
motto that goes like this: THE
BIGGER THEY ARE THE
HARDER THEY FALL.

then DO IT.
More Policemen
May Be in Ring
Chicago - d'PD - Officials
aid Saturday that still more
Chicago policemen, some of
them lieutenants or captains,
were thought to be involved
In a mass burglary ring. Eight
already have been arrested.
The ring cracked wide open
Friday on testimony from a
baby-faced ex-convict named
William Morrison, 23, who
said he ran an order-taking
service for the policemen, de
livering the stolen loot in re
turn for their letting him
keep whatever cash he found.
Morrison, in a 77 -page
statement, said he was telling
all because he was "scared
stiff his policemen - accom
plices would otherwise kill
him in an effort to silence the
affair.
Morrison said he feared the
policemen planned to set up
.one more burglary for him,
as they had in the past, only
this time they would shoot
him on the spot, "so they'd
look like heroes."
Paul Newey, chief investi
gator for Cook county (Chica
go) state's attorney Benjamin
Adamowski. said five of the
eight arrested policemen al
ready have confessed to singl
ing out stores which had mer
chandise they wanted.
