Because 1 wish I were the typo who could wear clothes and have them look .Ike they do In the pictures. You see a picture of a fellow standing there in a rough shirt and he looks like Clark Oable Just after ne has rescued the gnl from the villain. I order the thing, at a fancy price, and find that I could have done equally well by going cut on the highway and picking up a potato sack, cutting a hole for my head and draping the thing around me. Or maybe It's Just that I don't live right. I notice in nil the be fore-and-i'ftor pictures the chap Who Isn '. wearing the Tight shir, is pictured ns having a paunch that han?s over his belt buckle, punts tliil are ragged in the seat, runover heels and is living In a poor excuse for a hobo jungle. Aft er donning- the correct shirt he loses 40 pounds, acquires a new suit, n new head of hair and 500 dollar wrlstwatch, all of which re is showing off In the swankiest spot in town. Oh well, maybe some people are mini rigm. us live by lives can at least be comfortable on a hard chair If nothing else. 'enlng an occasional pencil or cut ting the strings off his laundry bundle. Looking back on the whole tiling I'm not too sure that whittling as a fine art didn't go out with to bacco chewuig. When the American economy reached the point where every woman could afford a carpet on the floor the day of the tobacco chewer was on the wane. It was only natural, I suppose, that the shavings from the whlttler's stick should follow. Seems a shame, though. Maybe what we need Is a lack knife ren aissance in this country. It might be the answer to tension and jumpy living. It might also cut ihe head shrinkers who call them selves psychiatrists out of business. Whatever happened to whittling Jn this country? Used to be that you couldn't go anywhere without running into at least a half a doz en men sitting around, chewing vile tobacco and whittling endless chains out of a stick of wood. Or carving t round ball In a cage out of n solid block of pine. Nowadays you have to look a long ways for a man who even owns a pocket knife, much less uses it fur anything except sharp- Equestrianism must be on the rise. Eitner that or people are seeing horses in&tesd of snakes while in their cups. Have you no ticed the liquor ads in the maga zines lately? Pretty near half of em are using a norse in some form or another to advertise their particular brand of stagger soup. Liking horses I can go along with Ihe Idea, but I wish we would get over this craze of using out- of-rocus pictures. Every time I see one I wonder If it's the ad or if I'm losing what little eyesight I have left. f They'll Do It Every Time By Jimmy Hatlo , Credit where TaeSx'W' J CREDIT IS DUE THOUGHT WK WgM PRETTY J W " i WJJ M I DEP T-- V, GOOD AT SBTTINS UP r" A ? , I ', t (L.

JAMES MARLOW Giles French, the Sherman Coun ty sage, had a real pithy remark In his column "These Tilings I Note" the other day. He said that If President Eisenhower had been troubled with ulcers or a kidney ailment instead of a heart attack there wouldn't have been any up roar about his health at all. True, too. HAL BOYLE NEW YORK 11 The United States Army will lose a hero next week but keep a legend. The hero Is Ma. Den. William F. Dean, one of the bravest and best-loved officers In American military history. The legend this holder of the first Medal of Honor won In Ko rea leaves behind him is the epic story of the valor he showed on the battlefield and his fortitude during more than three years as a prisoner of war. At 68, Oen. Dean, a one-time street car conductor and Dollce, man, Is winding up a brilliant 32- year military career. He will re tire Monday as deputy command er of the Olh Army after a final troop review In his honor at the historic Presidio of San Francisco. No man has better earned re tirement, but thousands of veter ans will hate to see him go. He has been truly "the soldier's sol dier," exemplifying In both deed and manner the best that is taught at West Point, a school Oen. Dean never ottended himself, Although some of his men re vered him almost as If he were a 49th star In the flag, the general shrank from being publicly labeled a hero. "I'm Just a dog-faced soldier," lie always Insisted. He was, too. His men liked him for thot. But he was something more also. He was a general of the old type, a commonder who, when the going got really tough, liked to go up front and lead his men In combat personally. That stylo ol leadership presum ably went out of style alter the Civil War. but It never went out of style with Dean. Where his t oops needed him most, there he wos. In the Second World War he won the Dlsttnauished Service Cross, the notion's second highest award lor valor, for leading his men on foot throunh a continuous artillery burrage to knock out an enemy buttery. It was rWsame brand of cour age that guV.u him the Medal of Honor In Korea. He became sep arated from his men while helping tiicm fiKht a Red lank with hand grenades and bazookas during a desperate holding action. As coinnioiidcr of the 24th Di vision Oen. Uenn hnd been given the all-but-linnossihii blunt Uie lorco of the entire North tj Korean advance until America could rush reinforcements from Japan and home ports and form a real battlellne. That mission was accomplished. Dean hid for more than a month behind enemy lines most of the lime without food until a Korean civilian betrayed him to the enemy. The enemy kept word of his capture secret. Most of his men thought him dead. But the ex ample of hla courage lived on. Soldiers rarely care much one way or another for a general of ficer. He Is ordlnarly remote from them, I came to Korea as a re porter ahortly after Dean dlsan. pearea, ana i was amazed at the depth of feeling his men had for him. Some even broke Into tears when they spoke of him. Thev felt as if somehow thev had let him down. During his long ordeal as a prisoner kepi In solitary conllne- ment Dean's reddish hair turned break under torture and reveal of causes leads Inexorably Industrial research ns a Held In general requires a better public relations program. Many of the difficulties that have been placed In the way of this new developing tool of our Industrialized age have been the result of ignorance on the part of the American public and even men In high places know little of what It is all about. Ignor ance means fear and motivates destruction. Industrial research must take ac tion on Its own part to improve its public acceptance, this does not menn that Industrial units should boost their own research departments In public advertise ments. In fact, it is apparent that this form of activity which is now get ting into our national magazines may have a reaction that is de leterious to the desired effect. Advertising copy has a way of romanticizing research, putting an air of mystery around the labora tory, as in the case of one great industrial firm calling It a "House of Moglc" while other Industrial organizations have vied with each other for equally intriguing names. By these means the public Is led to believe that Industrial re search is beyond their understand ing, and what the public does not understand, it fears. The public needs to be told lust what research is when used by Industry and now it benefits man kind. Then too. as little secrecy as possible should be placed around new fundamental knowledge. It must be recognized that luck ing any legal means of protecting Its use, except secrecy, that some recrecy Is quite proper and neces sary but this should be as little as possible. The thought that "modern Indus trial research is magic should be cieariy erased from the public mind because there is nothing magical about the process of re- seHrcn. wo can look into our crys tal ball and foresee unborn devel opments by what Is going on in today's laboratories.

Many hands made skill ful by careful training under thoughtful direction are required if they are to perform feats like those conjured in the minds of popular writers. We know in a general Way the native skills needed and the rigor ous training required that will fit persons possessing them to suc ceed in science and engineering. We also know that our popula tion does not normally possess nearly enough minds as keen as they should be and as well trained in these pursuits. There never are enough skilled hands to put the NEW YORK I Prices continue their slow rise in many lines as j manufacturers adjust to higher costs. But nowadays retail prices aiders poke around inside Russia Associated Press Nevt Analyst VASHINGTON tfi The possibil ity of world disarmament has been given a lot of publicity since July's .summit meeting when President Eisenhower made his sensational "open skies" proposal.. On its ; face, it may have seemed simple. The President suggested the j United States and Russia ex-, change complete blue prints on I their military establishments, j Then, as a check on each other's ; honesty, he-proposed they agree ' to aerial insTiecllon ol each other I Irom the air. . ' In spite of repeated optimistic I statements about eventual igree- mcnt by Kaiold E. . Stassen, the, adviser, the two sides aie still far aprrt. And any agreement on disarm-; anient at the Big Four iorelgn; minister.;' meeting, which began yesterday in Geneva, has a spien-; did chance of getting nowhere. A look at the problem shows why. -For yeus the United Slates has. said that bclore 'his country would ' gree to disarm wnicn wouio' mean getting rid uf the atomic weapons on which 11 had spent soi much time and cash there would i have to be thu kind of agreement Before any disarmament the big powers must agree on a foolproof system of checking to prevent cheating. This country backed the idea of international teams of in-) specters free to roam around in side ihe territory of the big pow-i ers. The Russians wouldn't buy. They : traditionally Had retused to let out-, bases. The United States doesn't argue that aerial inspection is the beginning and end of all agree ment on disarmament. It takes the position that that Is one of the, early steps. The United .trues and Russia could be said to be III tie closer thun they were In the late 1940s. But they are still so far apart that almost cerlainly it win be years before they reach a lull agreement, if they ever do. They'd have to build up a lot more con. fldence in each other's good u tent ions than they have now.

Then last May. no douui as part of their so-called new look, they agreed to inspection but In a very limited way. They suggested international in spectors be stationed only at air lields, railheads and harbors. That left a lot of territory uninspected.

These series ran h t,.,.rt in their early beginnings and often suggests along the way what their final outcomes are likelv to be. The miracles of science and en gineering arc explainable, and they are readied not suddenly, as one expects a stage magician to produce his illusions, but step by step. All too frequently our writers In the press and magazines have giv en the Impression that miracles are easy; that they come to pass at the nod of a head or the wave of a hand Even a Utile thought Perhaps your picture of a scien tist is either the crackpot or the evil genius that haunts our present , day comic books and so-called fun ny strips in our newspapers, or you may think of him as the near sighted person of the advertise ments, who, dressed In a white Jacket, gazos Into a test tube or a pathologists microscope. , There may be scientists ot both these kinds, but seldom do they get out of the pages of fiction. Real-life scientists are more like- ly to be men and women possessed of active and penetrating vision who have learned to use this facul ty to put facts together in new ways. They know also how to use what others have discovered before them and how to learn new facts for themselves by observation, meas urement, and experiment. Furthermore, they must possess vast funds of Information stored In their minds In such orderly fash Ion that they are able to call upon any of It at a moment's notice. Surprisingly, most scientists today are young people In spite of their long, hard training. There are wonderful opportuni ties for those young people of to day and tomorrow who are able to develop the keen insight, the orderly memory, and the precise reasoning faculties necessary for scientific and engineering work. Only by the labors of many peo ple of these qualifications can we convert what we know and may yet discover into solutions of our fundamental problems as they grow acute. tney pass it along to the grocer.
