There was a worldwide atmosphere of tense and intense anticipation of a tremendous event to come. In England the final feverish preparations were being made. On the continent the French underground waited impatiently. The Germans worked and watched anxiously. All eyes were on the English Channel. When would the blow come? Not what month, but what day, for the great invasion was surely very near. Early on the morning of June 6, came the answer. The official communique said simply that strong Allied forces had struck the French Coast and were "moving inland". Then the fortifications which Hitler had boasted as impregnable were not performing as promised. But they did take a great toll.

Early on the morning of June 6, came the answer. The official communique said simply that strong Allied forces had struck the French Coast and were "moving inland". Then the fortifications which Hitler had boasted as impregnable were not performing as promised. But they did take a great toll. "We shall accept nothing less than total victory," said General Eisenhower in his invasion message. He got it 11 months later almost to the day when an unconditional surrender was made by the Nazis at Rheims. In those 11 months from the beaches of Normandy to the banks of the Rhine and beyond, many tens of thousands gave their lives in the mighty drive. In looking back we cannot help wishing that their sacrifices had produced the better world for which they fought. But in looking ahead we must renew our determination to continue that fight until the real victory is won. Knight Is Right for Both Parties There have long been differences of opinion among students of popular government as to whether the merits of California's cross-filing system outweigh whatever demerits the system may have. However, all schools of thought seem in agreement that cross-filing has one indisputable value for the electorate: It permits final settlement of any political contest at the Primary Election when a majority of all voters, irrespective of party registration, feel that one candidate stands out above all others for a particular office. The candidacy of Goodwin J. Knight for Governor appears proof positive of that indisputable merit of cross-filing. There has never been a more popular public servant in our tate's history. In the contest for Lieutenant Governor, in 1950, Knight was so overwhelmingly the choice of California voters that he won the nomination on both Democratic and Republican tickets at the Primary Election. He was accorded an amazing total of 1,519,675 primary election votes — nearly a million more than his nearest opponent and a quarter of a million more votes than all four of his opponents combined! Since then, as Governor, he has achieved even greater stature and esteem in the eyes of his fellow citizens of all political persuasions — and seems almost certainly destined to an even more impressive double nomination at this year's Primary Election. His achievements in the few months since he took office have won him the enthusiastic endorsement of anxiously. All eyes were on the English Channel. SATURDAY, JUNE 8—Born to day, you are fond of activity and excitement. You like something interesting going on all the time. Unless you curb this tendency, you are apt to be in hot water most of the time. You do have the facility for getting out safely—and landing on both feet—but you would save a lot of effort and trouble if you kept out of it all in the first place. Put a curb on your impulsiveness and you will find life becomes a little simpler. Significant occurrences which may change the entire trend of your life can occur in your eighteenth, twenty-fifth and thirty-second years. Since you are, by nature, a good organizer, you could be chosen to be put in charge of important projects. You have excellent executive powers and know how to make others cooperate with you. Since you are a good judge of character and can size up a person accurately at first sight, you would make a good director of personnel. You are reliable and can be counted on to finish any job which you have begun. You expend nervous energy so lavishly that you are the type to build up tensions rather easily. Learn to relax. Among those who were born on this date are: Igor Stravinsky composer; Valasquez artist; George T. Angell, founder of the Humane Society; Roger Batchelor author, and Columbus Deland statesman.

Let your birthday star be your daily guide Sunday, June 6 GEMINI (May 21-June 21)—Do not neglect the spiritual side of life too much. The mind needs refreshing too. Going to church? CANCER (June 22-July 23)—Change of mental activity can do a great deal for you. Renew your energies and your ambitions. LEO (July 24-Aug. 23)—Your family circle should offer you pleasures which will bring lasting happiness just now. VIRGO (Aug. 24-Sept. 23)—The signs are definitely in your favor.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)—Don't mar the day with a single worry. What is worth worrying about? 1,519,675 primary election votes — nearly a million more than his nearest opponent and a quarter of a million more votes than all four of his opponents combined! Since then, as Governor, he has achieved even greater stature and esteem in the eyes of his fellow citizens of all political persuasions — and seems almost certainly destined to an even more impressive double nomination at this year's Primary Election. His achievements in the few months since he took office have won him the enthusiastic endorsement of outstanding civic and other organizations over the entire State — labor, women's groups, farmers, educators, the professions — representing millions of his fellow citizens. Goodwin Knight has ably earned and richly deserves the honor of a full four-year term as our Governor. We are confident that he will receive that honor from Californians of both parties when they cast their ballots next Tuesday. "NON-COMBATANT!" I reach up thru super-conscious being— Toward beauty, intelligence, and light: I attempt to see—and, thru my seeing— To dissipate the darkness of my night! I pray for guidance that I do no hurt To those about me: I would seek no might— Nor would I try by words to contravert Another's thinking—nor by deeds to spell Contradiction of what others assert! Each has his own aspirations to quell Or cater to; each must make his own prayer, To his own God—each must his life-time dwell Among his fellows—and each one is heir To all that has been given all—to share! OLD UGLY FACE—Page 209— Talbot Mundy SUNDAY, JUNE 6—Born today, originality of thought—as it is with so many of those born under your sign—is an outstanding characteristic. And, with you, there is a capability of instrumentation so that you know how to develop all talent that lies within you. You might be highly successful in the field of invention, although you have artistic and literary gifts, as well. Since your sense of justice is keen, your powers of analysis marked, and your ability to gather facts and present them in a highly entertaining manner, you might become a crusading writer whose pen belongs to that group which can be mightier than the sword in influencing your own times.

OTHMAN McLEAN, Va. — This whole day I spent in the Senate Caucus Room, listening to McCarthy, Cohn and Co. vs. the Army, but somehow the yak seemed especially yackety, and if you don't mind I'd like to do a little essay about rural hydraulics and allied subjects. Five long, sore - muscled years ago, you may remember, I bought a red tractor with headlights fore and aft (for plowing backward at night) to keep my beaten - up acres in Fairfax County from returning to wilderness. This noisy behemoth came equipped with a long iron handle, which the salesman assured me would be useful for lifting the sickle bar over rocks, old bottles and other debris in the grass. It was,too . Either heave on the handle and raise the mower, which weighed maybe 150 pounds, or smash a blade on the piece of brick down below. Connected to the handle is a heavy steel spring, making it as much effort to lower the sickle as to raise it. After a couple or three hours of this Old Farmer Othman, with the sore back, got lazy. He'd take a chance on maybe the blade skimming over the rock without ruining itself. Sometimes this actually happened. Other times it meant removing the busted blade and going to work with a cold chisel, iron rivets, and a sledge hammer. This was one portion of the rural life the real estate man did not mention when he made a farmer out of me. It was what you might call brutal. So one evening, after a session with the handle and the sledge both, I was-thumbing through a farm paper, and there was an ad for power steering for tractors. I had no trouble with steering, but it gave me an idea. I got in touch with the tractor man in Herndon, Va., and I asked him why in tarmart his expertsingly. He said they were all by about 10 years. He said he'd tried to sell hydraulic lift for my tractor I first bought it, but I was know-it-all city slicker then I'd turn it down. So I said, would he sell me one now said, for $98 he'd be delightful. My new hydraulic lift turned to be a red iron box, with wires, shafts and other bristling from all sides. I Idea exactly what they're f I do know that when g touch a small lever on the ing column, the goo inside goes whoosh and my mowe up and down like a balloon end of a string. This is downright miracle has made mowing a pleasure I feel stupid for being with all these years. The other major improve around my place are the three overhead doors to my com-m garage-and-implement shee-old doors never would shi-and many a neighbor borrow tool he somehow never bered to return. He didn't just walked in and took. A high wind ripped off all of these doors one night and dered new ones that slid into the ceiling. These are b They work at a touch, th tight, and they'll never blow The only problem was cause the man who installed them said if I'd paint 'em, myse knock off $50. I am now half through my job and have come to the son that $50 for two coats on both sides of three big o great bargain. That is n The rest of the garage now so sad, compared to its gl door, that I'll have to pay whole business.

Plessey (Harper) is the lively story of Sir Charles Ravenstreet, a middle-aged industrialist who finds life is just beginning for him when he is eased out of the electrical supply firm he has headed for many years. He has no family, few friends and life apparently is over. But he finds himself involved with a super-business executive and three strange men he calls "magicians" for lack of a better word. The big business man hopes to increase his power by marketing a drug that will end the worries of the masses. The three magicians intervene in Ravenstreet's life when their inn is destroyed by a falling jet plane. He is startled to find they expected it. Through them Ravenstreet finds happiness, averts the destruction awaiting him and finds to his pleased surprise he has a family after all. The story is a diverting one with humor and serious concern at some of the troubles of the world in nice balance... The World In The Evening, by Christopher Isherwood (Random House) is a skillful portrayal of a man searching his own conscience for the first time and belatedly recognizing the weaknesses which ruined his two marriages and his own development. Stephen Monk at 36, wealthy and apparently able to have things just as he wants them, is driven to flight to his boyhood home when he fraps his wife in adultery. An accident which confines him to a hospital bed for 10 weeks forces upgn him a re-examination of his life. In reading the letters of his deceased first wife, Monk begins to understand himself and recognize his own misdeeds. The narrative is vivid in drawing the characters of Stephen, Jane and Elizabeth and the abnormal but plausible life they shared...

OTHMAN Kaltenborn Edits the News BY H. V. KALTENBORN and ROLF KALTENBORN Week after week I have been hoping to escape from McCarthyism as the dominating feature of the news but without success. The interest of the American people continues to center on the Washington hearings and the comments they provoke. This week both the President and the Attorney General gave them particular attention. At the same time an increasing number of Senators and Representatives, chiefly Republican, are going on record against the methods and morals of the junior Wisconsin senator. Joe McCarthy is used to ducking brickbats and throwing them back. But during the past week he has been kept busier than usual in trying to handle all those thrown at him within and without the Senate hearing room. THIS WEEK'S barrage was opened by the President himself in his Monday address at Columbia University's bicentennial celebration. There he expressed his firm belief "that knowledge and understanding will drive from the temple of freedom all who seek to establish us thought control — whether they be agents of a foreign state or demagogues thirsty for personal power." The President denied Senator McCarthy's apparent belief that every individual who takes issue with our own convictions is necessarily wicked or treasonous. The most vigorous criticism throughout the week centered on Senator McCarthy's invitation to two million government employees in uniform or out to bring their complaints about suspected this power on the Congressional Reorganization Act of 1946. But Senator Mike Monroney of Oklahoma co-author of that act, denies that it justifies McCarthy's appeal of government workers to defy President Eisenhower's order and to disclose secret information to a Senate investigator. He says the Wisconsin Senator has consistently usurped the rightful jurisdiction of other committees. Senator Lehman of New York called the McCarthy usupation of executive authority "an anarchist thesis." Republican Senate leader Knowland and Senator Smith of New Jersey also warned that McCarthy has gone too far. SENATOR HOMER FERGUSON of Michigan, chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee, declared flatly that Senator McCarthy is wrong. Republican Senator Duff of Pennsylvania called Senator McCarthy's action "an invitation to anarchy." He wants the entire Senate to censure McCarthy. But the most scathing attack against the Wisconsin investigator so far delivered on the floor of the Senate came from the veteran Senator Flanders of Vermont. He looks with suspicion on the morals of the Cohn-Schine-McCarthy trio. He declares that Senator McCarthy has "achieved the incredible success of trapping Republican Senators in the detailed and relentless search for some significant evidence of subversion in the Republican administration — and this in an election year, too." THE CHIEF PURPOSE of con- The man who installed them. He had if I'd paint 'em, myself, he'd lock off $50. I am now half through with this book and have come to the conclusion that $30 for two coats of paint both sides of three big doors is great bargain. That is not all. The rest of the garage now looks bad, compared to its glistening doors, that I'll have to paint the whole business. This will be less even, than listening to the gentlemen in the Caucus Room. (Copyright, 1954) United Feature Syndicate, Inc. Communists took over, estimates that the Red regime has killed 400,000 Chinese and holds another 7,000,000 in slavery. Bishopentin K. Y. Huang, of the Holy Catholic Church in China, a branch of the Anglican Communion, makes an estimate in his book Now I Can Tell (Morehouse-Gorham). He does not disclose his sources of information. Huang, now in the United States,ides his book into two parts. In the first, he tells of his imprisonment in Kunming by the Reds, his release after two and one-half months, his refusal to become a communist figurehead in the church, and his escape into Burma. The second part is a study of communism "land reform" in China. He gathered information while in prison, through indoctrination pictures and talks with Red remembers. He describes the gruesome process by which the Communists eliminate private ownership of land murder of landlords and rich farmers, condemnation to slow death of so-called well-to-do farmers, distribution of small and heavily taxed land parcels from which farmer finds it impossible to take a living, and forcing as many masons as possible to join the army in order to survive.

Farr, hanging up his clippers after 50 years of barbering, doesn't think much of men in his Senate came from the veteran Senator Flanders of Vermont. He looks with suspicion on the morals of the Cohn-Schine-McCarthy trio. He declares that Senator McCarthy has "achieved the incredible success of trapping Republican Senators in the detailed and relentless search for some significant evidence of subversion in the Republican administration — and this in an election year, too." THE CHIEF PURPOSE of congressional investigations is to lead to remedial legislation. It looks now as though Senator McCarthy will bring about legislation to remedy his own abuse of the rights of Congressional Committees. A bipartisan move is now under way in the Senate to curb the powers and reshift the procedures of such investigating groups. It is too late to do it in the present session, but there is every prospect that it will be done next year by bipartisan agreement. Thus we have the happy assurance that the worst aspects of McCarthyism are behind us. Even if the Republicans retain control of Senate Committees, the Wisconsin Senator and his staff will be controlled far more effectively than in the past. There will be no more one-man Monmouth investigations. McCarthy has done infinitely more harm than good. As was pointed out on the Senate floor, Hitler was also opposed to communism. The bad news from Indo-China has tended to obscure good news from Europe. The endorsement of the European Defense Community by the French Socialist party shows progress for the European army idea. Hitherto the Socialists have led the opposition to joining with the Germans to defend Europe. This socialist decision is now binding upon their 104 delegates in the French parliament. The overwhelming electoral victory of a pro-European government in Luxemburg further strengthens support for a European Army. (Copyright, 1954, General Features Corp.)
