It is hard to imagine any official action comparable, for sheer stupidity and dearth of dignity, to the announced visit of Clement Attlee, Aneurin Bevan and seven other British Labor Party leaders to Communist China to promote British-Chinese "friendship". It was Attlee, then Prime Minister, who engineered recognition of the Chinese Red regime in 1950. Now he is going over, hat in hand, to curry favor with the Reds. Lord Beaverbrook's "Evening Standard" condemns the visit as "bound to cause bitterness both in the United States and France . . . at the moment when the forces of Vietminh are using Chinese tanks in Indo-China." "Bitterness" would surely fit the French reaction. The David La By DAVID EN ROUTE TO WASHINGTON The most significant impression that this observer has derived from his survey of Europe in the several weeks is that there abroad an almost completely fair idea of the motives and purposes if not the ideal of the people in the United States. This has not developed as a result of any one incident or series of incidents but appears to be the direct result of the strong waves materialism which have been testing Europe asunder along ideological lines ever since the close of the war. When a people is interested in It was Attice, then Prime Minister, who engineered recognition of the Chinese Red regime in 1950. Now he is going over, hat in hand, to curry favor with the Reds. Lord Beaverbrook's "Evening Standard" condemns the visit as "bound to cause bitterness both in the United States and France . . . at the moment when the forces of Vietminh are using Chinese tanks in Indo-China." "Bitterness" would surely fit the French reaction. As for the average American's viewpoint, Beaverbrook might well have included "contempt" and "disgust". Flag Day The approach of Flag Day on June 14, causes us to wonder how long "Old Gory" will retain its present design. If either Alaska or Hawaii is admitted to the Union (prospects are not bright at the moment) it will necessitate a rearrangement of the stars to accommodate the 49th and the 50th also if both become states. Many new arrangements have been suggested. One is to have seven stars across and seven down if the number is 49. With 50 it would be more difficult to get a balanced designs. It has also been proposed to put the stars in a circle which, it is said, would make it easier to adjust in cases of change. The original flag of the 13 states had the stars in a circle "symbolizing the perpetuity of the Union." Well, we'll leave it to the experts to work out a design if, and when, the necessity arises. What interests us most is not what Our Flag looks like but what it stands for. And our task as individual Americans is to see that it always stands for the qualities and ideals which made America what it is. Movie Comeback The movies may not be as much "better than ever" as Hollywood publicists would have us believe, but they are also certainly not deader than ever, either, in spite of TV. Fact is, the movies are doing something of a comeback in the entertainment world. Production in the film capital is said to be at a higher level than at any time in the past two or three years. Theater attendance in the United States is now estimated at 50 million a week — about the same as last year but five million above 1952. Attendance is most improved where television has been longest established. Apparently the novelty is wearing off to some degree. The introduction of CinemaScope and the fast fadeout of three dimensional pictures have been particularly significant in the "TO SEE HIS GOD ..." Knowledge of God, in this day, can be bound By neither sect nor doctrine—cult nor creed: Thru his capacity each man is freed To prove his senses—sight and scent and sound; Feeling and taste—all weapons to be used And laid aside—when gone the moment's need! In this brief interlude of Life is found Scant time to muse on what the seers propound— We must keep growing to match Living's speed! Who limits God by lines of creed or sect Shall one day realize he has abused God's greatest Gift—his hopes are broken, wrecked' And cast aside because he has refused To see his God—in his God's Own Aspect! THE SOONER, THE BETTER! PUBLIC WILL POLITICS The David Lawrence Dispatch By DAVID LAWRENCE DUTE TO WASHINGTON—most significant impression observer has derived from the cry of Europe in the last weeks is that there is an almost completely false motives and purposes. The ideal of the people of United States has not developed as a reary one incident or series of acts but appears to be the result of the strong waves ofism which have been fearsome asunder along ideologies ever since the close of a people is interested in it. that most of the skepticism comes from the wishful thinkers on the other side of the Iron Curtain who are watching democracy's desperate efforts to reorganize after a devastating world war. One hears often the phrase "American leadership." Sometimes it is uttered with a bit of contempt and sometimes with a sympathetic regret that America itself does not understand the role it must play. Few Europeans know the truth, which is that the United States government under the past as well as the present administration has not sought to bully or to dictate but to guide. Our generosity Othman's Views on Washington Sensation By FREDERICK C. OTHMAN: WASHINGTON — Sen. Karl E. Mundt (R., S.D.), the serene pipe-smoking Chairman of the Senate Army-McCarthy investigators, is being plagued by what he calls mid-morning madness. Daily at round 10:30 A.M., when the chairman is ready to get going on the inquiry, the gentleman from Missouri, Sen. Stuart Symington (D.) and the gentleman from Wisconsin, Sen. Joe McCarthy (R.) erupt into such a snarling match as to make the customers gasp. I don't think they like each other. Sen. Mundt keeps trying to shush 'em, but he never has any luck. A senator can say what he pleases, when he pleases and at such length as suits him. I've been listening to senators for so many years now that my ears are cauliflowered, but never before have I heard two of these gentlemen exchange such bald-faced insults. Sometimes their faces flush; sometimes the blood drains from their cheeks and they look momentarily like angry ghosts. You've been reading lately about Sen. McCarthy calling Sen. Symington "sanctimonious Stu," and about Sen. Symington resenting this and demanding that the gentleman from Wisconsin address him formally. That was only the prologue. On the 30th day of the hearings, alter 6,000 pages or 1,800,000 words had been written into the record. Unilarmament Mundt thought that he was getting well into the cross-examination of committee counsel Roy Cohn. But Sen. Symington said he had a letter to read—a billet doux addressed to Sen. McCarthy. This note said Sen. Symington would testify under oath about whatever advice he'd given to Secretary of the Army Bob Stevens if Sen. McCarthy would promise to testify before a special committee and alleged arguments tax collectors. "Here is the letter," Symington to Sen. McCarthy you will please sign it in Sen. McCarthy would look at it. He called it vicious smear. "He has raised every by the Daily Worker," added. "And I am glad television. The people can how low a man can fail to say, how low an all can sink." He glared at Sen. B who almost rose from Sen. McCarthy had some say. Sen. Symington recognition. Wearily Chairman knocked the ashes from and said this mid-morning wasn't going to get "I suppose you will ask McCartney," he said to Sen. I'll have a McCartney answer you. I'm going to grant neither any more time to cont personal feud." The Chairman was hopeful. Sen. McCarthy wasn't in a personal feuditioned an alleged pay-off Symington to a Communal leader at the Senator's electrical manufacturing. Sen. Symington said it was safe and the Senate dreadful. Sen. McCarthy something I couldn't help my mind on that childhood about sticks and stones' fellow's bones, but these torrs' words don't do it much good, either.

McCarthy wouldn't even look at it. He called it a very vicious smear. "He has raised everything said by the Daily Worker," Sen. Joe added. "And I am glad we are on television. The people can now see how low a man can fall—I mean to say, how low an alleged man can sink." He glared at Sen. Symington, who almost rose from his chair. Sen. McCarthy had some more to say. Sen. Symington demanded recognition. Wearily Chairman Mundt knocked the ashes from his pipe and said this mid-morning madness wasn't going to get anywhere. "I suppose you will attack Sen. McCarthy," he said to Sen. Symington. "Then I'll have to let Sen. McCarthy answer you. And then I'm going to grant neither of you any more time to continue your personal feud." The chairman was just being hopeful. Sen. McCarthy said he wasn't in a personal feud. He mentioned an alleged pay-off by Sen. Symington to a Communist labor leader at the Senator's St. Louis electrical manufacturing plant. Sen. Symington said the charge was false and the Senator's attack dreadful. Sen. McCarthy muttered something I couldn't hear. I had my mind on that childhood rhyme about sticks and stones'll break a fellow's bones, but these two Senators' words don't do either of them much good, either. I mean I'm sorry the gentlemen talked the way they did. I've always looked up to Senators as being something extra special and I'll be saddened if they force me to change my mind. Kaltenborn Edits the News BY H. V. KALTENBORN and ROLF KALTENBORN During the past week the people of this country have faced two unhappy spectacles. One is in Geneva, where the same Communist propaganda maneuvers that wrecked the Berlin Conference are now wrecking the Geneva Conference. The second is in Washington, where the Army McCarthy hearings are being prolonged beyond all endurance by the diversionary tactics of the junior Senator from Wisconsin. The Geneva bickerings have killed any prospect for early peace in Korea or IndoChina. The continued personal attacks and digressions with which the Wisconsin Senator has been permitted to delay and confuse the Washington hearings have made it certain that nothing of advantage to anyone will come out of them. The only hope is that they will permanently diminish the reputation and the power of the Wisconsin Senator, who has been allowed to use them for personal attacks on everyone with whom he disagrees. IT IS BECOMING CLEAR that American public opinion is definitely opposed to our intervention in IndoChina with American land forces. The Administration realises this, and there is no present prospect that there will be any active participation by United States troops in the Indo-Chinese war. It would be inexcusable for us to use the precious manpower of the United States in a vain endeavor to engage in jungle warfare against Asia's unlimited and unprepared to use our Air and Naval power, to strike back against any additional Chinese intervention in Indo-China. Above all we must face the facts of the Indo-Chinese situation. The French, and the Viet Nam forces they have created, cannot and will not defeat the Indo-Chinese Communists. The pro-Communist Viet Minh leaders know this. So long as they continue to get help from Red China they will be unwilling to make a compromise peace. The best for which the anti-Communist nations can hope is to save the states of Laos and Cambodia—and perhaps a part of Viet Nam—from Communist occupation and control. MEANWHILE, we must continue to send additional military material to help the French and the Viet Namese, so long as they continue to fight the Communists. We must also play a large part in building up, training, and equipping more anti-Communist Viet Namese units. The military situation has now deteriorated to the point where much of Viet Nam can be saved. If we do decide to intervene, with our Navy and Air Force, let us fix a definite objective and use big enough forces to achieve it. Let us not talk about a united, independent, democratic Indo-China and then settle—as we did in Korea—for an Indo-China that is neither democratic, nor independent, nor united. AS FOR THE unhappy hearings in Washington, they seek to drag on their weary way in spite of any thing that anybody tries to do to shorten them. Hardly a day passes Day Forecast MILLA SUNDAY, JUNE 13—Born today your intuitions rather than reason are the main impulses for most of your actions. Fortunately you can trust them and it will always be wise for you to do so. You will discover that for you, making an instant decision is the right way. To brood over the pres and cons of a matter will only serve to fog the main issue—and you are likely to come up with the wrong answer. Clever and versatile, you have charm and wit which makes you very popular socially. You are always the center of any group. You have a fine speaking voice and will probably have a good singing voice, if properly trained. Although the stars have given you all the qualifications for a public career, you have a slight tendency to shyness and if you do perform in public will have to learn to conquer stage fright. Naturally home-loving, you will be happiest if you wed early in life and have a family of your own. You have so much energy that you will probably, if a woman, continue your career after marriage. Among those who were born on this date are: Mark Van Doren, Mary L. B. Branch, and William Butler Yets; poets; Bruno Frank Author; Francis Dana, statesman; General Winfield Scott and Fredrick W. Root composer. To find what the stars have in store for you tomorrow, select your birthday star and read the corresponding paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide. Monday, June 14 EMINI (May 21-June 21)—Things could go wrong today, so be on your guard against careless errors. Be exact in everything. It would be inexcusable for us to use the precious manpower of the United States in a vain endeavor to engage in jungle warfare against Asia's unlimited and expendable manpower, under conditions which would make it impossible for us to achieve victory. We refused to make The sacrifices that would have been required to win the land war in Korea. There could be no possible excuse for engaging American ground forces in a similarly futile adventure in the equally difficult terrain of IndoChina. IF WE DO intervene in IndoChina, it would be only with our Air Force and our Navy. In view of what we now know, it might have been far better if we had not intervened in Korea with a land army beyond the few divisions necessary to hold the Pusan perimeter in the south. This would have compelled us to train the Korean forces at a much more rapid rate. They would then have done a much larger part of the fighting in the closing years of the war. We would also have been forced to attack the important Red Chinese bases on the Manchurian frontiers, just beyond Yalu. This would have been an effective restraint on Red China. It certainly would have made her much more cautious about the kind of intervention she is new risking, to help Ho Chi Minh conquer Dien Bien Phu. IF CANNOT be too strongly emphasized, that what we do—or do not do—in fighting Communist intervention in any one part of the world, has immediate repercussions to every other area of conflict between Communist and anti-Communist forces. That is also why we must be skidding over the floor. Science By V. G.

Hardly a day passes in which new diversions are not created or new witnesses suggested. The bitter personal quarrel that has now developed between Democratic Senator Symington and Republican Senator McCarthy occupied much time but save us little additional information. By the time this Committee makes its report, few will want to read it. The public has already made up its mind. FROM THE NEWS DESK: Despite the pressure of increasing populations on available food supplies in Asia and Africa, there are a few areas where food production is running ahead of population growth. United Nations reports show that food production is running ahead of population increases by two per cent in Europe and the Near East. This result of increased knowledge of scientific agriculture. Because many Soviet diplomats have deserted to the West, Moscow has imposed tighter restrictions. The "hostage" system is the Kremlin most effective technique. Diplomats w 11 no longer be allowed to take their families to non-Communist countris. Those who are allowed to leave Russia with their families are "advised"—which means "ordered"—to send their children "home to continue their studies." Childless diplomats must leave their wives behind. Joint vacations can only be spent in the Communist homeland. (Copyright 1954, General Features Corp.)

VARTAN United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK — (UP) — A new plastic film that looks and feels like cellophane is so strong you can't tear it with your hands. This polyester chemical wonder has a wide range of uses because of its diverse qualities. "Mylar" resists water and solvent, provides a high tensile strength about one-third that of machine steel, and remains flexible at both freezing and hot temperatures. Youngsters can enjoy the film in crashproof kites, industry technicians may employ it for insulating motor and generator field coils and housewives can use it to help decorate their homes with furniture of any "wood-grain" appearance. Dyed or painted patterns, Mylar is laminated to acoustical tile that may be washed with soap and water. Combined with metallic yarn, the shoes and gloves. It even serves as an identification bracelet for new-born babies in hospitals. Other uses include recording tape and tear-proof tabs in camera film. Mylar also may be bonded to metal, thus eliminating the need for lacquering and tin plating. (Du Pont Co., Wilmington, Del.) Poam rubber teams up with cotton carpeting in a new flooring material. The combination makes for a soft but long-wearing carpet. In the manufacturing process, a quarter-inch of foam rubber is spread and curved directly on the back of the cotton, thereby producing an inseparable unit of foam and pile. Because of the porous nature of the foam, air circulates freely through the pile, a feature that helps to keep the carpet cleaner. "Freemont Foam-Tuft," moreover, can be laundered in a washing machine. The foam also prevents rugs from skidding over the floor. Foam-Tuft, which is available in 10 colors, comes as pre-cut scatter rugs and in rolled strips for wall-to-wall carpeting. (Hewitt-Robin, Inc., Stamford, Conn.)
