family to feed.
She put a coffee can on the
kitchen shelf and told the kids It
contained money for a rainy day.
To the children, the can became
a security symbol and they would
go hungry rather than let their
mother open It.

theless, it had served Its purpose.
Release Causes Recall
t don't know why this little tale
stuck in my memory box because
it was one of the most forgettable
magazine pieces I ever read. But
I was somehow reminded of it
this week as I was looking over a
press release Issued by Rep. Car
roll D. Kearns R-Pa..
Kearns announced that he was
about to Introduce a resolution
calling for the appointment of a
mneressional committee to count
the gold in Fort Knox. The pur
pose of this, he said, would be to
determine the "actual amount of
bullion on deposit there.
He noted that no body of elect-
t rnrescntat ves had "ever en
tered the sanctum sanctorum 01
any of our mint Institutions" to
check on "the validity of inven
tories which have been taken by
aoDointcd people.
To the naked eye, Kearns' pro
posal would seem to be rife with
imnlications. the most obvious
one being that some sort of skul
duggcry had been taking place In
the vaults.
Would Reassure Public
Kearns, however, stipulated that
he was not acting out of "distrust
of personnel" in charge of the
gold, "but rather to reassure the
public as to the safety of their
securities."
Be that as it may, I can't seem
to get that magazine article out
of my mind. I keep remembering
how that poor widow told her
children there was money in the
coffee can, . .
Suppose, I say to myself, the
committee that Kearns wants to
create found out there actually

that Uncle Sam has only been us
ing it as a security symbol.
If that were the case, we would
be like the widow's children. We
would be better off If we didn't
know it
There is a moral in the widow's
story which can be applied to
the entire monetary system. The
moral Is: Stale coffee is as good
as currency as long as you don't
try to spend it,

Lumber Buying
Raises Query
WASHINGTON (AP) Sen
Wayne Morse, D-Ore.. has asked
the secretary of state to help find
out why a lumber contract went
to Japanese firm despite al
leged Irregularities.
Morse said Thursday he wants
to determine why a contract for
19 million board feet of lumber, fi
nancod by foreign aid funds, went
to a Japanese firm after the
American mission in South Korea
recommended that it be canceled.
He told Secretary of State Chris
tian A. Herter in a letter that the
Georgia-Pacific Corp., Portland,
Ore., wa second low bidder for
the contract, to supply lumber for
victims of Typhoon Sarah in South
Korea.
Morse said there were allega
tions of Irregularities in the award
and that he wants to get the facts
for which he has repeatedly asked
the International Cooperation Ad
ministration.

The Federal Aviation Agency
revealed the dramatic test flight
Thursday in announcing officially
that the big prop-jet airliner, with
proper modifications, can resume
flying at its normal cruising
speeds.
The FAA said the dangerous
test proved that the bug had been

one of the most dangerous struc

It was failure of this shaft and
its housing through vibration that
led to the .disintegration of Elec

City, Ind., killing a total of 97
persons.
Actual removal of these key
components involves more struc
tural weakness than if they failed
in flight. But the test Electra

The contractor, who made stud

Joe Joaquin de Arrilaga.
Arrilaga was governor. of Alta
California from 1792 to 1794 and

1814.
Two hundred persons gathered
at the mission, located 25 miles
south of Salinas, to see the red

Human bones and a bronze cm

Restoration expert Harry Dow-

Arrilaca. He said the age and con

that Arrilaca had asked to be
buried beneath the mission indi

The casket was closed and re

The crucifix was removed and
given to the Our Lady of Solitude
Catholic Church in Soledad.

'Bubble Man' Finally Has
Million Record Sell-Out
Two Men Held Key To Settlement
Just Before Civil War Outbreak
Editor's Note The greatest
tragedy of the Civil War, argue,
historian Bruce Cation, is that it
was not in fact necessary. In this
last in a series of articles, he re
ports a conversation which indi
cates how easily men of reason
and good will could have reached
compromise.
By BRUCE CATTON
Written For
The Associated Press
One of the most tragic things
about the coming of the Civil War
is tlie fact that Just before the
curtain went up two men possib
ly without quite realizing it
showed how the business might
have been settled.
Late in February, 1861, 10 days
or' so before the Lincoln adminis
tration took office, William H.
Seward of New York, who was
about- to become Lincoln's secre
tary of state, met at a Washing
ton dinner party with Justice John
A. Campbell of the Supreme
Court.
Campbell was a good Alabam
an, and when the split came he
would go with his state. But this
night he and Seward, in friend
ship, discussed the great problem
and agreed that the Union ought
not to be allowed to break up
over the slavery issue.
In their talk they said the things
ihaf someone ought to have been
savins earlier, nut in nublir in
day. You will find it easier tojihe national political conventions,
communicate with your child if! in th ntwsirimitial camMlon. In
limit of its development. Mean.
-vhile, said Campbell, the mosi
the slavery group could ask was
he continued protection of Slav-
ciy in the slates where it already
existed. In the territories the bat
tie was lost New Mexico, for in
stance, had been open to slave
immigration for a full decade and
only 29 slaves had been taken
there.
Again Seward Interrupted: "On
ly 24, sir." Twenty-four, In 10
years, under full protection of the
laws. Was there any sense, asked
Justice Campbell, in letting the
Union be destroyed over the ques
tion of slavery in the territories
when slavery obviously was not
going to establish itself in the ter
ritories in any case? Seward
agreed that there was not,
Now this talk ended In nothing
better than friendly agreement be
tween the Northerner and the
Southerner over an after-dinner
brandy. But can anyone doubt
that if talk of that kind had been
carried on openly, In convention
and on the political stump and in
newspaper columns, over the
years, the tragic break-up of the
Union might have been averted?
Two men, one from Alabama
and one from New York, talking
unemotionally In a drawing room
could so easily agree that the is
sue could and should be bandied; '
could agree that the very cause
of the dispute was itself dyinl
and would, if men approached it
reasonably, presently reduce it
self to manageable size. Was it
not Incumbent, somewhere along
the line, on responsible leaders,
politicians, editors and plain cit
izens to have said the same thing
in public?
That is what our democratie
machinery is for. It gives us the
chance to handle problems which,
left to the emotions, become un
manageable. The nation's endur
ing tragedy is that in 1860 and
1861 that machinery was not used.
We have only this haunting record
of a conversation between Seward
and Campbell to remind us of
what might have been done.
Make no mistake about that:
The American Civil War was not
the "irrepressible conflict." It
need not have taken place. It set
tled nothing that reasonable men
of good will could not have set
tled if they had been willing to
make the effort. The record of the
war has a variety of meanings.
Its most tragic meaning of all is
that 600.000 young men lost their
lives because their elders had
been unwilling to meet a divisive

lling his way through billions of
bubbles and a thousand recording
sessions good old Lawrence Welk
has finally achieved the ultlmate-
his first cold record.
The master of uh-one, tin-two
and uh-three music came through
with his first smash hit. "Calcut
ta." bv tumina to a rock 'n' roll
beat.
Lawrence looks like twins he's
that much beside himself with
glee. The coveted golden record1
has eluded him since 1938 when
his champagne music began bub
bling. . ' '
I fool wunnerful about this,'
he said munching a noonday ham
burger. "I've been trying hard for
a long time to make a record that
could sell a million, in recent
years it became a goal I didn't
expect to achieve. I thought mv
music was on the wrong track.
"Oh Happy Day"
Wclk's previous best-seller was
"Oh Happy Day" which sold only !
250.000 copies.
- It w as a source ot humiliation
and frustration to Lawrence to
watch such young pups as Fabian.
Elvis Presley and Bobby Darin
come along and sell a million rec
ords without turning a hair or
their sideburns.
But here was Welk with a 40
piece band, 45 albums to his cre
dit and no hits. He was the butt
ot jokes, e a 1 1 e d the "King of
Korn."
Now Lawrence is swinging as
"Calcutta" promises to reach the
two million mark. '
Appeal to Youth -
"I'm thinking younger now," he
said, "Our band Is beginning to
appeal to the youth of the coun
try, but al the same time not los

folks." '
This sudden success will not
cause-a revolution in Wclk's style.
The bubble machine will be
around for a long time.'
"Quantity doesn't count as much
as quality." the band leader said.
It is our plan Id mix our music
so the old and the young will en
joy it.
"We were concerned about the
fact that the elders didn't enjoy
the same music that youth does.
Their tastes are different.
'We'll be doing more modified
rock and roll-type things in the
future, he said.
you let him know that Mom and
Dad can err too.
8. Don't make threats in anger
or impossible promises when you
are in a generous mood. Threat
en or promise only that which
you can live up to. To a child,
a parent's word means every
thing. The child who has lost
faith in his parents has difficulty
believing in anything.
9. Do not smother your child
with superficial manifestations of
love. The purest and healthiest
love expresses itself in day-m-i
day-out training which breeds
self-confidence and independence.
10. Teach your child there is
dignity in hard work, whether it
is performed with calloused hands
that shovel coal or skilled fingers
that manipulate surgical instru
ments. Let him know a useful
life is a blessed one and a life
of ease and pleasure-seeking - is
empty and meaningless.
11. Do not try to protect your
child against every small blow
and ' disappointment. Adversity
strengthens character and makes
us compassionate. Trouble Is the
great equalizer. Let him learn it
12. Teach your child to love
God and to love his fellow man.
Don't send your child to a place
of worship take him there
Children learn from example
Telling him something is not
teaching him. If you give your
child a deep and abiding faith,
Congress, or somewhere.
Slavery, said Campbell, was a
transitory institution; it would in
evitably be greatly modified or
abandoned altogether in the
course of time. Modification in
fact was already taking place; for
years slavery had been receding
in the Upper South, and it was
really flourishing now only in the
rich plantation area of the Deep
South. There slavery was thriv
ing, and' it perhaps would be 25
years before that area's expand
ing needs for slave labor were
fully met.
Seward interrupted him here to
remark: "Say 50 years." Very
well: 50 years, in all, before the
institution would have reached the
