i To General Eisenhowers forces,
the task of nominating him as Re
publican choice for the presidency
breaks down into three phases. The
second Is the' most critical, since it
Involves what happens to the big
Pennsylvania and Michigan dele
gations and the disputed delegates
lrom four southern states.
These days, of course, Eisenhor
er is making a few major speeches,
meeting hordes of delegates who
troop to his door, orienting him
self to the political scene. His en
ergies naturally must be bent to
ward winning delegates, not toward
attracting large blocks of voters
whom he might have to lace in
h fall
', No one but the doubtful dele
gates themselves really knows
what Impact the general Is having
both on the piauorm anu ui
personal sessions. Possibly he may
be narrowing slightly the gap m
delegates between himslf and Sen
ator Taft.
But, though Important ground
work may weU be laid In this per
iod, it Is the next stage that will
tell the story. The possibilities at
this point are legion, and specula
tion could be almost endless.
Suppose, for Instance, that the
Michigan and Pennsylvania groups
make the Jump before decision Is
had on the disputedsouthern dele
gations. If these two went heavily
for Ike, it unquestionably would in
fluence the Taft-controlled national
committee and credentials commit
tee to move toward an even-split
sort of compromise on the contest
ed southerners.
If, however, the hearings on the
contests get under - way- before
Michigan and Pennsylvania decide.

of Esperanto the International
language. Highlv unfeasible be
cause at best the language could
not help being clumsy and stiff.
But anyone can easily learn a
sign language. And think of the
peace and quiet.
This would be a prettv good
world to live In if we could make
the pleasant and useful as beauti
ful and attractive as we can the
deadlv and harmful. There isn't
anything In the world that attracts
attention like a sleek Jet fighter, a
graceful rifle designed to kill or a
lethal-looking pistol displayed in a
store window. Seems like the tools
of violence always have an appeal
that is well nigh Irresistable.
the Taft elements on the national
committee may still urge compro
mise but try for an outcome more
favorable to the senator. They
would do this under risk that the
Eisenhower camp might take the
issue to the convention floor and
possibly upset their decision and
produce stronger southern repre
sentation for Ike.
At this stage. Governor Fine of
Pennsylvania and the Michigan
leaders would be watching closely
to see what happened. If the con
tests went markedly for Taft and
were upheld by the convention on
appeal, the two big groups might
well decide Taft had it, and throw
in their strength with him. But If
the edge given Taft were narrower,
or the decision overthrown by the
convention, they might conclude it
was Ike's race and join him.
.In the former event, Taft would
undoubtedly win the nomination.
Thus it is the later development
that the Eisenhower forces seek:
a result of the southern contests
either strongly favorable or suffi
ciently close that Taft gets no
striking advantage from it. This on
the theory that they thus could still
make heavy inroads on Pennsyl
vania and Michigan and get past
the critical phase.
II they make it, their hope: will
Instantly soar. From that oolnt on
they foresee blue skies. For they
count on dipping deeply into the
pool of 130 delegates committed to
such other candidates as Govrnor
Warren, Harold Stassen, and Gov-
ernor McKeldln of Maryland. ;
xne r.isennower men maxer no
public claims, but It is well known
they believe they will inherit about
four-fifths of this block of 130 or
slightly more than. 100. If by that
time Ilse were around the 500-
mark, he could thereby leap to the
wuiu ujcicuj' leap w uic
needed 604 even If Taft were pre-1
vlouly a Utile distance ahead.
So. on the one hand, we have
the Taft strategy aimed at foster
ing a bandwagon mood to produce
quick victory: on the other, an El
senhower purpose first to block that
result, then to weather the storms
of contest and take big support
irom Micnigan ana Pennsylvania,
and finally to nush acrosn with re
liance on what Ike's forces feel
is the general's suDerior secondary
strength.
Obviously this Is no race to bet
a fortune on. Any one of 15 or 20
different factors could turn the tide
decisively one way or the other.

PRACIIER AND THE DEACON
By Eulalie B. Woodward
When the preacher said amen
And arose from off his knees
Old Deacon Brown had just woke
up
Because he'd had to sneeie.
'Twas then the congregation smiled
And some just laughed out loud
wnats this world a comin' to?
Said he to that great crowds
'Twas then that he begin to preach
Not on the sermon that he had
planned
But plain "Hell fire" with roaring
voice
With warnings for every man
He tells them all that they have
sinned.
By omission and neglect
Just where are you headed for?
Or what do you expect.
For God on high surely has seen
The errors of your ways
Wake up he cried come and
repent
Then he'll prolong your days
Old Deacon Brown just yawned
and yawned
He slowly arose and said
Why Parson Jones what Is wrong
You preach right over our head
For years and years you've Just
preached love .
The same old way from time to
time
Until a sleep has lulled Us all
And all our snorings rhyme.
The parson shouted Deacon Brown
It's time you did awake
Arouse yourself Deacon Brown
My advice you'll have to take.
So long this church has slumbered
on
For tickling sermons are the kind
You've listened to for many years
No others have I tried to find
I've stood behind a sacred desk
And now I'm brought to shame
To think that I have brought re
proach On our Saviours name.
How about you women there
Just sitting in the pews
You never talk about a thing
But gossip or the news
How about your social ward
How abut your clicks:
And you talk about the preacher
You aay be is a "nick."
Do you think his wife can sing?
or do anything or this sort
fS'.it?.. L0ii Jelt I' i
And then they laugh and snort.
Hell's prepared for you my dears
And don't you think it Ain't
For you never could be recognized
As one of Gods own saints.
There's something else that you
should know
This preacher "shore am wise"
.- . . ,
He knows Just what is going on
And who is classed "pint size
E'en tho their prayers are loud and
long
They're simply off the wing
Until no longer is there joy
When they praise and sing.
There's one more thing I d like to
say
I surely bate to do
But here it goes my little flock
You didn't think I knew
That you are waiting for the day
When you can vote me out
All the faults you say I have
Why talk so much or even pout.
Just how much have you prayed
Or tried in your weak way
You'll find my friends I'm sure
you will
You'll have much less to say
Just buckle in and try to help
Since you know Just how It's done
'Tis then you'll help win many
souls
And a crown of life you will have
won.

Many of our readers when, on colon gets through the atmosphere

Horisons and blue skies are famil
iar sights, yet the unnatural con
tact of the two momentarily gives
the Impression of beholding a rare
sky coloration, for most horisons
are bordered with whitish haze.
When looking toward a nearby
hilltop, one is actually gaslng at a
very high part of the sky where
blueness Is the rule. But to say
this color Is natural Is simply the
ancient explanation which really
tells us little. Instead- of being
blue, why Is not the sky violet
or green or white? Occasionally
it Is.
Leonardo da Vinci, the painter.
400 years ago attempted a scien
tific explanation when he said the
blue is the combination of white
sunlight with the black of outside
space. Later, many others, includ
ing the great Sir Isaac Newton,
offered solutions, but not until the
last century was a' well-proven
explanation established.
The blue la due to the scattering
of the sunlight colors by the tiny
particles of dust In the air. or
even by the gaseous molecules

long waves of red on through or

To listen to a lot ol Deome you'd
think the federal government was
Just about the only place to turn
lor money, no matter what they
need. They ought to watch the
operations of a growing American
Institution known as the "Tele
thon." The Telethon Is a marathon pro-
gram on television, usually con
ducted by one or two entertain
ment stars who lead a vast parade
of professional talent before the
cameras over a 12 or 15-hour span.
The cause has usually been some
fund-raising project for research
or treatment in the field of a stub
born malady like cerebral palsy,
muscular dystrophy, or heart di
sease. But the most recent one
was dedicated to getting money to!
sena me American Olympic team
to neisinsu mis summer.
Witnessing a performance like
this, you can hardly believe that
the old American spirit of self-help
Is dead. For the Olympic Telethon
the goal was $555,000.
Perhaps it would have been eas
ier to ask Congress for the funds
out there is a tradition against that
So Olympic officials appealed to
tne people oi the united states.
With Blng Crosby and Bob Hope
leading the way, stars of stage,
screen and TV, athletes and as
sorted other public figures made
a 15-hour procession across Holly
Wood and New York TV stages.
There were dozens of volunteer
telephone workers, auditors, check
ers, and other technical helpers.
Altogether, nearly 1200 Deople

Were It not for this property ol
scattering, our daytime sky would
be black and even the stars would
be visible in It. All places pro
tected -from direct sunlight (shad
ows) would be intensely dark as
they are on the atmosphereless
moon.
In a clear sky a small amount
ol leu is scattered, a little more
orange and yellow, a considerable
green, and a great deal of blue
and violet. All of this together,
deficient in long waves and abund
antly supplied with short waves,
gives a color combination which
to us appears blue.
Observations from very high
mountain tons show a distinct vlo
let tinge to the sky, especially over
head. Stratosphere balloomsts re
port darker skies the higher the
elevation. The thin air above these
locations scatters light less effec
tively than the denser air below
Toward a distant, level horteon,
we look through nearly 40 time
the thickness of air encountered
toward the xenlth, so scattering
of all colors is much more pro
nounced and usually gives a whit

yellows, and reds in sunset effects
are Indirectly connected with scat
tering of light as It comes through
the denser air near the earth.

When It was all over at mid
afternoon on a Sunday, the Tele
thon scoreboard showed that more
than $1,000,000 had been raised
from Individuals, companies. In
stltulons and the like. The contri
butions ranged from driblets of II
and $5 to big chunks of 110.000.
Quite an accomplishment for a
half day of effort, however inten
sive that effort may have been.
Quite a tribute, too. to the generous-hearted
impulses of the
American people who gave their
dollars to send our team abroad.
To be aure. many gave money
with the assurance that their
names or those of their business
enterprises would be mentioned
over a coast-to-coast network. But
still, they gave.
pf course It never has been true
that the urge to mutual self-help
was hopelessly enfeebled In Amer
ica. Private money-raislng for
charitable and other worthy causes
has zoomed to record heights in
recent years. Yet this fact has been
overshadowed by the colossal out
lays of federal money for many
purposes. We can sUll achieve
purposes.
Some of these federal outlays are
Inescapable and perhaps more will
be. But there Is no solid wisdom In
the view that Washington is the
fount of all monies for worthy pur
poses. We can still achieve many
of our goals without resort to the
federal treasury. It has always
been so.
The new lnstltulon, the Telethon,
Just happens to be a dramatic dem
onstration of the fact.
