It is becoming more and more evident, judging by the flow of foreign news and much of the informed comment on the news, that the rest of the free world is growing resentful of U. S. efforts to "save" it with advice. To the contrary, however, there is no sign whatever that other governments are fed up with U. S. financial aid. A prime piece of evidence is afforded by India — one of our costliest friends in money, and at the same time one of our severest critics. Prime Minister Nehru seems to say, in one breath — don't you dare fly a plane over our country, but another boatload of your cash will be welcome any time!

Wonder what would be the reaction if open-handed, gabby Uncle Sam would try saving some of his money along with his breath? Such Is Politics Anyone considering a plunge into politics might well consider the experience of one Briscoe Holt who ran for sheriff in Jefferson City, Tenn. As a candidate, Briscoe really went "all out" in wooing the voters. In the course of his efforts to win friends and influence people he plowed 173 acres and spread 63 loads of barn yard fertilizer. He attended 26 revival meetings and sang in all the choirs, made love to nine grass widows and got abitten by 39 dogs. He got 43 votes. His opponent got 4,000. Your Birthday Forecast By STELLA WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2 — Born today, the center of your life is your own home and hearth and there you are able to find all the pleasure and enjoyment, you desire. You are fond of looking on the bright side of things and are sometimes not practical. Fond of reading, you will want a large library of your own. Religious, you are inclined to be a little narrow in your views. Yours are the only right beliefs! It might be wiser for you to become a little more liberal in your outlook on life. You have more than a little of the hermit in you, and you might be perfectly content if you never wed. You enjoy the company of congenial friends, but you will not go out of your way to make new acquaintances. This is a strange quirk in your nature, for you are actually very affectionate and even demonstrative among those who are within your close circle of friendship and love. You have a good head for business and will be successful financially throughout life. You may not accumulate a large fortune yet you might, if you wished—but you will always have sufficient. Among those who were born on this date are: Pope Pius X, Sir Edgar Elgar, composer; Thomas Hardy, author, and John Randolph, statesman. a little more. This can be to your distinct advantage some day.

On June 15, Republicans and Democrats take their differences to the diamond in the annual congressional baseball game—proceeds to charity. Both sides are already issuing communiques. On the Republican side, the manager, Rep. C. W., (Runt) Bishop of Illinois has this to say: "We have a couple of ball players who don't know how to put on baseball sox.

Roy has been in the corps for 13 years, and while he was in service along happened a male heir, Billy, now aged nine. Billy, on his own, joined the Cub Scouts Roy got interested and wound up a cub-master. I inevitably the day came when he decided that a fine organization like the Cub Scouts ought to be exposed to a fine organization like the Marine Corps. So he gathered in 62 youngsters from Cub Pack 651 in Fairfax County, Va., and took them on a tour of the big Marine base at Quantico, Va.

Hollywood By ALINE MOSBY HOLLYWOOD (UP)—An actor heralded as the newest sexy screen hero will appear completely bald on the screen because his shiny pate has fascinated the ladies. Yul Brynner, with bedroom eyes and not one hair on his skull, scored a sensation on Broadway in "The King and I" as a Siamese potentate. Now director Cecil B. DeMille has signed the actor for two pictures. Brynner, here on tour with his musical and also to begin costume fittings for the first film, said today he will be hairless on the screen, too. Baldness Fits Roles "The baldness fits in with the screen roles," he explained. "The king in the musical, had been to school in a monastery and it is logical he would have continued to shave his head, the producers were horrified at first when I wanted to shave mine." Some men get panic stricken when they lose their hair. They throw the emphasis on something that is not very important. Some misconception of masculinity—or having a great deal of vanity," he laughed.

OTHMAH WASHINGTON — The question is whether we humans eventually are going to take on a gentle glow by night, like maybe so many neon tubes. And also, of course, whether this is going to be bad for us. This is a worrisome thing to Rep. Antonio M. Fernandez (D.) of New Mexico, where all those atoms are, and also, to me now that I've found out about it. The subject of the entire human race becoming radioactive came up prosocially enough before the House Appropriations Committee, where the Public Health Service was asking for its annual millions to make us a fitter nation. And there was Vernon G. MacKenzie, in charge of the health bureau's Sanitary Engineering Center, reading his formal statement. He mentioned, about halfway through it, that modern bombs were creating a potential build-up of something called Carbon-14, a radio-active element that's almost everlasting. Rep. Fernandez didn't exactly go "Eeeeeek!" but he did want to know what was cooking. MacKenzie said, well, sir, when one of these bombs went off, it sprayed the atomosphere with Carbon-14, a radioactive isotope which has a very long life. This stuff, said he, loses its kick so slowly that it's still at half strength after 5,000 years. How MacKenzie knew for sure that Carbon-14 produced today would still be powerful in the year 6,954, he did not say. Nobody asked him; I guess the gentlemen of the committee just felt too depressed. "They have been exploding these bombs in New Mexico and in Nevada and I'm really interested in knowing what that Carbon-14 is," said Rep. Fernandez. "Is it all around us there?" Not from plain old atom bombs, said MacKenzie. The gentleman from New Mexico said glad to hear that. "We are talking about the bomb explosions," MacKenzie tuned. "The Carbon-14 soated could be liberated the atmosphere, and what come of it nobody can as complete definiteness." He said it would get into water and hence into fish the earth and so into vegetation and meats. Some, he said, remain in the air, possibly carbon dioxide. Rep. Fernandez said would MacKenzie kindly the danger in language a nary fellow could understand. Kenzie said the danger was possibility of more building up more Carbon-14 man tissues. This, he could come from eating native food. Rep. Fernandez insist wanted to know what would pen to radioactive people. "Carbon-14 is a radioactive and its disintegration have a harmful effect on tissue. It would destroy essentially, where these disitions occur." This left the Congressmen that, even if they were by an H-bomb, they might integrated anyway. It was some thought, and it caused I.A. Scheele, the surgeon gov't to interrupt soothingly. He said his interest in Carbon-14 today did not his scientists believed that harm was being done by H-bomb tests. More H-bombs make more Carbon-14, but now none of us is likely to by night.

The Pentagon has a new wheel who used to be an executive with one of the airlines. He was used to push surroundings. The other day he walked into the press room in the biggest office building in the world. It looked like a city news room with papers kicking around cigaret butts on the floor and empty paper cups on every desk. "This place," said the fresh new biggie, "needs a house-cleaning." Nobody, apparently, was listening. The press room at the Pentagon is working, with the same old efficiency. And, it still looks like a city room. Cluttered. They saw phony bombs go off. "It was so real," Billy Carbine said, "that we all rolled on our backs, like they told us to." They went through the fabulous Marine museum where they saw all of the old uniforms and the implements of war from the time the Marine Corps was founded. Special Parade There was a special parade in honor of the young fry. They went through the ordnance depot. They were saluted by high brass. They watched an "amphibious" landing. They saw close air support. In short they were impressed. Nine - year - old Billy is my spokesman. "It was wonderful," he told me. My daddy wasn't kiddin'. Those guys are tough." One little kid named Harry demonstrated that he had the feel of things. There was a not-hurt explosion. "I saw it coming," Harry said. "All I could think of was what I had been told in a cub meeting. Get back, get back, hit for cover." Harry got back and rolled so fast while trying to hit for cover that he knocked his leader. M-Sgf. New Products By V. G. VARTAN United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK — (UP) — You can filter dust and pollen from the air in your house with a new rollaround unit requiring no installation. The 70-pound, home-size machine operates on the same principles as giant air cleaners in public buildings. But it uses only as much current as an ordinary 40 watt bulb. Static electricity allows the device to screen out microscopic particles from the air. A motor-driven fan draws air into the device and the air then passes over a series of metal plates. Dust, lint and other impurities are repelled by the "positive" plates and attracted to the "negative" plates, where they cling. The section containing these plates may be removed in one piece for washing in the sink. "The Michonaire" is 30 inches in height and 15 inches in both width and depth. It is mounted on casters for easy wheeling from one room to another. (Raytheon Mfg. Co., Waltham, Mass.) Water ski fans can take to their sport this summer with skis made of Fiberglas-reinforced plastic—the same material that goes into furniture and sports car bodies. The skis feature great impact strength and a permanently smooth, fast surface. In addition, they will not splinter and never need repainting. A special core is molded into the skis to allow them to float. The water skier has his choice of five colors and three models, all equipped with bindings and fudders. The general purpose skis weigh 11 pounds per pair and measure 9 feet long and 5 inches wide.

"We are talking about the H-bomb explosions," MacKenzie continued. "The Carbon-14 so generated could be liberated through the atmosphere, and what will be some of it nobody can say with complete definiteness."

PARIS, June 2—American politics and French politics may differ in subject matter, but they are much the same as one sees arrayed on one side the partisan politicians, with their intrigues of personal ambition, and on the other the earnest individuals who sincerely want to serve their country with policies in the national interest. Just as the question of whether America should or should not intervene in southeast Asia causes members of Congress to put a partisan twist to their comments, so here the whole Indo-China problem is deeply immersed in party politics. What's more, many of the members of parliament who are attacking the cabinet on Indo-China policy actually have been using that issue as a means of weakening the efforts of the present cabinet to secure the ratification of the European defense community agreement so much desired by the United States. It is not necessary, however, to analyze the many cross-currents of French politics to realize that, as in America, the people are often ahead of their Congress and the executive. So also here the people of France have in the last two weeks shown that they are far ahead of all the partisan politicians in their concept of what is the true national interest. In the recently held special elections the people have elected candidates who were outspoken in favor of ratifying the European Defense Community agreement—something that so many members of Parliament have opposed on the assumption that the voters didn't want it. Also, the reaction to he defeat at Dien Bien Phu has been exactly opposite to what was being generally predicted—namely, that France's effort to fight further in Indo-China would collapse and a peace at any price would be accepted at Geneva. Maybe the tide was turned by agreement. It is evident that past grudges are being laid aside. Most of the parties here are rallying to the defense of something bigger than any single man or party—the honor and prestige of France. It is to be noted also that the opposition leaders have changed their tone somewhat and seem disinclined now to upset the Laniel cabinet. This is based on a fear of more serious consequences if Geva negotiations are bogged down by a French cabinet change. It shows also the political sagacity of the French politician who thinks it is best for an outgoing government to deal for a while longer with a delicate and messy situation and for a new cabinet to take over only when the critical phases are out of the way. As far as the European defense Community is concerned, ratification looks more likely than it has in a long time. Partly this is because the Socialist Party Congress has voted not only to support it but also to impose "Discipline," which means in American political parlance imposing a caucus rule that binds all members to vote as the majority does. Nearly half of the Socialists had publicly opposed EDC before it's a kind of "unit rule," familiar to American national political conventions. Since the Socialist strength in Parliament is substantial, hopes for ratifying EDC are rising. As one surveys the scene here, it seems obvious that even if the EDC agreement had not been sponsored by America, the French people themselves would in time have clamored for just such a solution. For if the peoples of the continent did not want to defend themselves why should American divisions be stationed in Europe and risk annihilation? That's the basic issue, and sooner or later the people here would have come to see the wisdom of the plan from their own standpoint, just as the West German government has already He said his interest in testing carbon-14 today did not indicate scientists believed that any form was being done by present bomb tests.

For if the peoples of the continent did not want to defend themselves why should American divisions be stationed in Europe and risk annihilation? That's the basic issue, and sooner or later the people here would have come to see the wisdom of the plan from their own standpoint, just as the West German government has already recognized it by giving the agreement its approval. For if EDC should fail, the alternative would be immediate admission of Germany into the North Atlantic Treaty organization. This would mean a national army for Germany, and the French don't want to see that happen any more than do the German Socialists who are so antagonistic to anything like a revival of militarism. The EDC agreement provides for a combined army that no one nation will dominate. The plan has many flaws and handicaps, but in the current situation it is better to take he project as it is and amend it later than to confront the Communists with disunited or disorganized military ingredients when the need is so urgent for solidarity and military coordination and efficiency as a deterrent to aggression.

R. 100 performed satisfactorily in every test, but the failure of a sister, R. 101, wrecked this British airship industry. Airspeed introduced a number of useful ideas and won wide technical acclaim, but lost money during every year of Shute's association with it. But he is not disatisfied. He was doing what he wanted to do, and doing it as well as could be done under the circumstances. The tragedy of errors surrounding the building of Britain's last dirigibles sheds considerable light on the contempt Shute shows for bureaucracy in such novels as The Far Country. The R. 100 was built by private industry, and performed very well; the R. 101, built to the same specifications by government "experts," was a dismal failure. Dan'l Boone Kissed Me, by Felix Holt (Dutton) is a re-creation of 19th-century American rural life as warmly nostalgic as the smell of fresh-turned earth or new-mowpay. It describes a month's events just before the Mexican war in "Jackson Purchase" section of western Kentucky—the same area depicted by HOLT in his first novel, The Gabriel born. The principal figure in Holt's new book is Duke Caldwell, a prosperous tobacco farmer with political ambitions, who overcomes the disfavor that snobbery and arrogance have earned him amnog his relatives and neighbors by one act of decisive courage at the story's climax. He is surrounded by an array of lesser characters, each of whom contributes his own personality and problems to the complex development of the plot. But plot is not a major factor. Holt is far more interested in depicting a way of life and the people who lived it. He does both with His latest, A Time To Love And A Time To Die. (Harcourt, Brace) is an impressive addition to his literary output. This is a love story of Ernst Graebel, private in Hitler's Awehrmacht who gets three weeks home leave from the Russian front. He meets and marries Ellisabeth Kruse whose father dies in a concentration camp. Nazi Germany is on the verge of doom as they try to salvage a few brief moments of happiness in the midst of hopelessness. Both are sick at heart at the fanaticism and futility of Nazism. Remarque, now an American citizen, paints a vivid picture of wartime Germany as it begins to come apart at the seams. Clement R. Attlee's own story of his six postwar years as Britain's Prime Minister, his leadership of the Labor party for two decades and his 30-year parliamentary career, is told in his autobiography, As It Happened (Viking). Attlee's story is mostly concerned with his personal life and with British politics. There is little appraisal of Britain's world role under his leadership. There is no mention at all of many world events which involved British references, without detail or appraisal, of many individuals associated with him. These omissions make the autobiography disappointing as a contribution to an understanding of historic happenings or British political events.
