Eisenhower may be bedeviled by the same dilemma which has frustrated President Truman: find ing way to end the Korean War. It mluht be well lor the Ameri can nervous system, now'raw and twitching because oi tne seemmg endlessness of the fighting, to ad Just itself to the idea Eisenhower may not be able to produce a miracle. After all. he promised none. He aid he'd go to Korea, which he did, In search of an answer. When he returned, he didn't say he had found one although he would hard ly tip off the enemy by saying much publicly, anyway. Neither Gen. Eisenhower nor Gen. MacArthur has suggested he had any intention of talking with Truman about a solution. But when Truman clouded up and rained all over both generals he probably dampened any notion either might have had about ex changing ideas with him. So if Eisenhower and MacArthur came to any conclusion in their geU together yesterday it is something which both men probably will keep to themselves, insofar as Truman is concerned. iTELLINSjTHE EDITOR CHRISTMAS'. CHEMULT I have enjoyed your column (Frank Jenkins ) all year and think from the line of thought you seem to express that perhaps if you had never stumbled onto this little question of Henry Van DVke I might not be wasting your time by sending it along to you. He- says: ,"Are you willing to atoop down and consider the needs of little children, to remember .the weaknesa and loneliness of people who are growing old; to stop ask ing how much your friends love you, and to ask yourself if you love them enough; to oear in mtna the things that other people have to bear in their hearts; to trim your lamp so that it will give more light and less smoke, and carry it in front so that your shadow will fall behind you; to make a grave for your ugly thoughts, and a garden of your kindly feelings with the gate open . are you willing to do these things even for a day? Then you may keen Christmas!" Merry Christmas and a Happy Xew Year Virginia Taylor ' NAMES ' SACRAMENTO In the long ago. our Saxon ancesters were offended if a guest did not drtnk his glassful of ale at one draught. In those davs drinklna- glasses were called "tumblers." Their rounded bot toms were so constructed that they tumbled and spilled the ale of a , reluctant drinker. These bibulous forbearers of ours called a bird of their oak forests: "shrike". This was Saxon for "shriek." Here is one of those mimetic bird names. This one so well embodied the bird's call-note that the name has lived until now. Our California shrike, or "butcher bird." is a beneficial bird. It destroys grasshoppers, locusts, Jerusalem-crickets. Out of Its habit of nesting in thorny shrubs, may came an interesting bit of comparative psychology, of adapta tion to new conditions. Watch him, for example, lmoale a grasshop per on barbed wire, instead of on a thorn. :- Our California shrike, Quaker- Mcrrifyn Shuns Rose Bow Bid HOLLYWOOD W Marilyn Mon. roe may attend the Southern California-Wisconsin Rose Bowl foot ball game, but not as a guest of USC's librarian, Dr. Lewis F. 6teig.

Ncivy Tests New Seaplane BAN DIEGO l The Navy to. day was studying Initial test re sults of the first delta-wing sea plane, the XF2Y-1 Sea Dart. The high-speed, fighter-type jet was designed to expand the air defense perimeter of fleets at sea and installations ashore. It was built by Consolidated Vultee for the Navy. Performance details are aecret. The Sea Dart has no horizontal tail but has a triangular vertical fin and rudder.

If that is a correct guess thrn the country will have to wait until after Eisenhower's inauguration Jan. 20 for any evidence that he has found' any way at all to end the Korean War. It seems clearly established that Eisenhower will hold firm to this government's present position: The Allies will not hand over to the Communists prisoners who don't want to go back to them. On this point the armistice talks broke down. For whatever their reason, the Communists refused to budge . and the fighting has con tinued And 'the fighting seems destined to continue unlets they yield on I unuco siaics nas too many pco th Drisoncr of war issue or are P'e and too manv agencies.. .doing i . -. .1 - wnippea jnio yieiamg on uie otiiiic fi.iH hv n nri trmrnriniis allied offensive i Before such an offensive could begin. .ffin Eisenhower woulrt hav to plan for it and consider the conse quences both in starting It and if it failed.

Goethe FAITH MALIN The recent flight of the British Jet airliner from London to Tokyo suggests nothing is impos sible of accommishment by the won derful human brain. Or should we say "with God all things are possible; "let us praise the Lord I" It is my conviction that a very definite superior power is behind all the wonderful things; that all good things proceed only with the consent of the Almighty Divine Creator. It is so evident in aviation. It is so evident in our personal lives even down to the most humble event. So why should God take a holi day when world events are to oc cur? In the newspapers, over the radio and in our conversation we speak of the "Korean problem" as one that will be solved by "this" or "that" general's plan. We don't hear or say much of the all-important, lndispensible co operation from Him who governs all things, who gives good plans to the generals. Many of us could and should openly testify that God has come to our rscue when we really did not deserve divine help. He helped us because he loved us. Surely he loves our nation, the members of NATO, the U.N., Communist China and even the entire world enough to give us the PEACE we crave even when we don't deserve it. He told us we must ask and that we must confess Him before men. It is only fair that we should recog nize Him. Shouldn't we then be honest In our discussion of the Korean problem in the newspapers, over the radio and especially in our conversations and give frank pub lic testimony of our faith In His love for His children?

He said It was ' indispen sable to the rebuilding of wr.r dnmaged economies and to stop ping the spread of communism." But he took vigorous exception BIOSSAT generals, who once had worked together, were in contact at ail. Rumors Hew thick about proposed meetings and the like, but .nothing ever came ot tnem. Overtures may have been made, tnough it is difti cuit to nail down the facta. There were stories that Ike was hrt because his old chief never congratulated him on hu nomina tion. Alter the election, MacArthur hailed the result as a "Republican" triumph but pointedly retrained from mentioning the winner's name. On the other hand, MacArthur maue it plain he felt slighted that nobody had asked his help on Asiatic questions, especially tne noity Korean aiiemma. The whole matter entered a new phase when MacArthur recently declared In a speech that he has a plan for settling Korea which; involves neither oullina out nor risking general war. Eisenhower, fresh from his own visit ther- and tolling hard to put new life into American and UN policy in Korea, plainly wishes nothing to stand In the way of a satisfactory war settlement. What ever their deferences, Eisenhower chose to ignore them In Ihe interest of deeper considerations. He cabled MacArthur that he would like to meet informally with him and have the "full benefit of your thinking and experience." He wants to learn MacArthur's plan. MacArthur quickly responded that he would be willing to meet with Ike, and his message was tinged with personal touches which evidenced a desire to close the breach or at least the distance between the two. At the same time he could not resist noting publicly that this is "the first time the slightest official interest in my council has been evidenced since my return." Certainly the Korean war is a problem that surmounts all per sonalities, and the country indeed should have the benefit of any useful Ideas MacArthur may of fer. The recent Eisenhower-Mac-Arthur exchange of cables Is a trib ute to the public spirit of both men. We can only hope their meetings prove fruitful. j S7X TUt OF ZtUS AT OLYMPIA Jj (TttwmUfitiit-ofmyndgt!)
