Iii The- Days lews By FRANK JENKINS What is happening at Geneva? I wouldn't know, o( course. Bui Allen Dulles, chief of the U.S. Central Intelligence agency, gives us no me good advice. He says: "No lasting security is possible In the world as long as the present Soviet system remains. The men .n the Kremlin have great lacillly tor changing their tactics as con venience and circumstances dic tate." , He doesn't mean that we must turn in and destroy the Soviet rystem by preventive wan He does mean we mustn't Kid ourselves or let anyone else kid us. Our job is walk softly and carry a big stick. As to Geneva, the dispatches tell us the Big Four foreign minis ters met (or the third time today in an attempt to lind some com mon ground to deal on now to re unite Germany and achieve Eu ropean peace. However, the dispatcher add there are many tears they may lace stalemate In East-West uews which show Uttla chance o: lelng reconciled. The best opinion seems to be thai they will direct their arguments toward winning popular, support, , particularly in Germany. . , That lends added In'.jrcst to an t er dispatch from overseas. -t -Doctors exceet West German Chancellor. Konrad Adenautr to make a lull recovery from nis re cent bronchial pneumonia. But In dications are that he won't be able to resume lull activity until early next year, , More good news from the doc tors: Saturday morning's medical bul letin from Denver says that Presi dent Eisenhower had a good night's sleep and awoke feeling refreshed and cheerful, Friaay, me aoc tois announced after an exhaus tive and careful examination that his heart escaped enlargement dur ing his illness. They call that an excellent sign. President Eisenhower and Chan cellor Adenauer are GREAT lead ers. People all over the world have FAITH in them. Leaders In whom the people have faith can work wonders. The longer lice ana Aae nauer can be spared, the better the chances for peace in the world will be. President Eisenhower's health Is Improving so satisfactorily that his doctors are permitting him to sit in on an important policy con ference in his hospital room. Present at the conference tif all eoes well and it is held as sched uled) will be his brother. Dr..

It is accepted as a foregone con clusion that the farm problem ana what to do about it w;ii. Be tne chief suoject oi discussion. .. Sneaking of the farm problem: In the little town of Spencer Iowa the other day ft supermarket operator named Cliff Ritchie de cided to tackle a one-man pork surplus operation pork being an important agricultural product In the state of lowe. So he put on a sale in his store Choice bacon went at 13 cents a half pound and pork chops and roasts sold for 29 cents a pound. Name-brand pork sausage was priced at 19 cents. By mid-aiter-noon he had sold 7.000 pounds ol Dork, his stock was exhausted and his buyers were out rustling for more pork m all tne neighbor ing towns. He called his special sale "Oper ation Pork-Lift" and said it was in spired by a desire to show that the best way of getting rid of surplus lood is to EAT IT. That Just about tells the story.
