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

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

-Doctors exceet West German
Chancellor. Konrad Adenautr to

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

Sneaking of the farm problem:
