Haile Selassie
The visit of Haile Selassie, Emperor of Ethiopia, to the United States comes at a time when the world is facing a situation not unlike that which thrust his little nation into tragic prominence in 1935.
The present problem is, of course, what to do about Indochina. At least, the Western World is not limiting it resistance to aggression to mere protests and declarations of high ideals.
But two decades ago it was different. When Bullyboy Benito Mussolini sent his legions into Ethiopia against the defenseless tribesmen the old League of Nations was quick to TALK about it. But no-one had the guts to take action. So Mussolini had no trouble winning the unequal fight. And Haile Selassie warned the world then that to let aggression go unchallenged in one place was to open the door to aggression throughout the world. How right he was!
Eventually, the West had to face up to the challenge of Hitler and Mussolini, which would price far more than meets the eye in the philomelic discourse by President Hindenhower the other day at press conference about the global nature of the Communist problem.
The President stressed tha t dilemma is not to be solved by military strength alone but by proper strategy in the field of the economic, the intellectual and the spiritual.
Coincidentally, Secretary Washington — There's more than meets the eye in the philomelic discourse by President Hindenhower the other day at press conference about the global nature of the Communist problem.

Eventually, the West had to face up to the challenge of Hitler and Mussolini. It paid a great price for the delay. The same thing applies in the Orient. The longer the West is divided and undecided on the proper joint action, the greater the cost in trying to save the situation.
It should be noted that when the Korean War broke out Ethiopia sent troops to the battlefront. Haile Selassie had not forgotten 1935.
Children Beware!
Most of our readers will have been shocked by the recent statement made by Highway Patrol Commissioner B. R. Caldwell of Sacramento that California's greatest killer is not the much publicised polio nor lukemia but the motor vehicle accident!
Such accidents cost the lives of nearly 300 California children last summer and injured nearly 16,000 others.
This newspaper believes, with many others, that, to reduce these needless accidents primary emphasis must be placed upon the responsibility of the individual.
The current traffic safety crusade conducted by a local committee in cooperation with the California Safety council, calling for motorists to sign a safe driving pledge seems to us to be the most direct approach to the problem of making our highways and streets safer for the children of California.
California's most precious heritage is her children.

The fidelity isn't too good, considering present requirements, but the records were made 37 years ago and the teamwork of these pioneers of jazz overcome all shortcomings. Some of the matchless tunes are "Tiger Rag," "Mournin' Blues," "Bluein' the Blues."

The President stressed that dilemma is not to be solved by military strength alone but by proper strategy in the field of economic, intellectual and spiritual.
Coincidentally, Secretary State Dulles was telling a Seattle audience that the Communists are the biggest fakers in the world even as they cry out about "economicism," they themselves have added 600 million people to the system of bondage since 1945.
Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of it is the fact that there are in the world many areas where desirable reforms or social changes should take place. Thus "colonialism," as it is known in Africa or in Asia, constituted a serious problem long before the Communists overthrew the Czar's government in 1917. Likewise, conditions of exploitation which are deploiable have existed in Guatemala and other Latin-American countries. The Communist agitators are taking advantage of those weaknesses now.
The Moscow government itself however, isn't sincerely interested in any humanitarian or social reforms anywhere in the world Nor is it interested in Latin America, or in North Africa or in its discord, as so many observers may takenly believe. The real aim to get possession, by revolution otherwise, of the mind of the man who occupies the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs or, the man who directs him. To line up votes on the United Nations or to get enough influence to block collective action of any kind against Soviet Russia is the sole purpose of the work all Communist agents through the world today: The Latin-American can field has been invaded by Communist agents because they means a break-up of the influence of a Latin-American bloc of voters in the United Nations which usually goes along with this country policies.

Like "I Believe" "My Friend" is a song of faith that crosses all religious lines. Even without words, its music would convey a serene message.
An old favorite of the mid-1930's, "Isle of Capri," is being brought back to prominence by John Gordy (RCA - Victor) and Duke Ellington (Capitol).
Gordy, an old master of the ragtime piano technique, gives the "Isle" a lusty workout while the Duke handles it in a more subdued but extremely exotic manner.
Show Time: Of the songs from the "Pajama Game," Broadway's newest hit musical, "Hernando's Hideaway" probably will get the most spinnings and then fade away.
There are other good numbers, among them "There Once Was a Man" by Guy Mitchell (Columbia) and "Steam Heat" by the Mariners (Columbia).

SONGS OF A SONNETEER

"HYSTERIA."
Had we, but sensed how glamor was to fade,
Or that allure was riding to a fall—
We might have skipped this pompous masquerade
And paid more heed to writings on Time's wall:
But we felt sure that Romance would be kind—
Did we but strive to let no moment pall:
Now, out of work and stony-broke, we find
That we have been mistaken in the plot—
And too, we were not only dumb, but blind!
Yet salt tears shed can merely serve to blot
The records which must prove our epitaph:
So here's to wine—may its lees never clot—
Allure and glamor rate a paragraph—
On which to waste one sigh—while we yet laugh!

HOLLYWOOD — Excuse for pinups of Marilyn Monroe the most familiar figure around any of Uncle Sam's overseas military outposts is likely to belong to a big, good-natured actor named Raymond Burr.
Burr, without fanfare and hoodliness has racked up a post-war army forces entertainment record second to none. He's spent most of his time between pictures visiting military areas too remote or dangerous for ordinary entertainers.
"I go along with K-rations," he said.
Burr averages six screen reel annually, the most recent of which is in Panoramic Productions' Go rilla at Large." The rest of the year he spends adding to the 000 odd broadcasts or 125,000 mes of overseas travel he has completed in behalf of America's armed forces.
"I prefer taking live shows to rugged places," he said, because there actors become more than mere performers. We become civilian contacts, contains from home."
Spends Own Money
Burr usually travels with a troupe he has organized himself.
His shows include singers, dancers, musicians and specialty entertainers. He pick them for durability as well as for talent.
"On our last Koren tour we did 376 two-hour and fifteen-minute shows," he says. "Nobody had pooped out after six months, so we hit Japan and the islands on our way home."
When it is impossible to transport his unit toaccessible plains Burr goes alone. Now and again.

Speed kills! Take it easy!
That is the theme of a month-long campaign for safer driving that is originating with the National Safety Council and being backed whole-heartedly in California by the National Automobile Club and the California Association of Insurance Agents.
Speed is a subtle and brutal killer. It has a strange way of creeping up on you. Modern cars are powerful and streamlined, and modern highways are broad and smooth. With this subtle combination, you almost unconsciously get the feeling you are not moving very fast. Gradually you bear down on the accelerator a little more, and a little more until suddenly the needle is edging sixty or seventy miles per hour.
At these speeds, things happen fast. A moment of inattention, a bump in the road that is a little too high, or a curve that is a little too sharp, and your smoothly riding car becomes a wild, careening and brutal murderer. In a matter of seconds, the speeding machine of pleasure can cripple you for life or batter you into a bloody death.
Remember these things the next time you feel inclined to step on the gas, say NAC. Remember! Speed kills So take it easy!
You Still Need Time
When traveling at high speed on the road, even a driver with extremely fast recaptions needs a measurable amount of time to react in emergencies, points out the California State Automobile Association.
At fifty miles an hour, you will normally travel fifty-five feet in just the time it takes to get your foot from the throttle to the brake pedal.

Communist purpose in stirtrouble in the French position in North Africa is to gain
political strength in Paris inside
the French Parliament so as to enable the Soviet strategists to exercise a veto on what the French foreign minister may do in conferences with the United States.
It's a "fifth column" worse than the one that ruined France in 1940.
The paramount question then is what can the free governments do, faced as they are by the knowledge that many of the conditions under which natives and underprivileged citizens have been exploited ought to be removed because, as in Indochina, rebellion can be stimulated if something is not done to give the natives their independence.
The strategy of the major powers in the world must inevitably be concentrated on exposure of the Communist tactics. This would reveal the dangers and would win the smaller nations and colonial groups that they face a greater tyranny if they lose the sympathetic protection of the free governments. Reforms are vital but they can never be completely established in wartime. As long as the "cold war" goes on, it is risky to set up weak independent governments that can be used as puppets by Soviet Russia. That's why the first job is to expose and eradicate Communist influence in every Near Eastern capital city in every country in Asia. Then be program for independence and reform will have some chance of permanency when it is achieved.
A worldwide inquiry into Communist tactics ought to be undertaken, but unfortunately the United Nations doesn't have the machinery or the determination to do it. Also the Communist political influence can block it there. If the governments of Great Britain, France and America, however, could persuade every one of the smaller governments in the world to join in an exposure of Communist agents in various countries, it would do much to hasten the day when real protection and help can be given those countries.
The Communist conspiracy, using funds transmitted through agents in free countries, is an active operation which needs to be fully brought to public attention everywhere if the Kremlin is to be defeated in the "cold war."

When traveling at high speed on the road, even a driver with extremely fast recations needs a measurable amount of time to react in emergencies, points out the California State Automobile Association.
At fifty miles an hour, you will normally travel fifty-five feet in just time it takes to get your foot from the throttle to the brake pedal.
This distance, added to the 112 feet required for even first-class brakes to bring your car to a stop, makes a total of 167 feet. When you take chances, frequently you do not have that much room.
In addition, says CSAA, weariness and worry are prime enemies of safe driving. Weariness slows down your reaction time so that you travel farther while making up your mind about what to do. Both weariness and worry affect your judgment so that you are more likely to do the wrong thing.
So when you are tired and have problems on your mind, slow down and take it easy.
New Truck Chassis
Reo Motors, Inc., revealed in Lansing, Mich., this last week production of a new "drop frame" chassis which provides for an exceptionally low loading height of Reo F-20 and F-22 trucks.
Designed particularly with operators of city-delivery truck in mind, "drop chassis" when used with a van-type body and 9.00x20 tires has a floor height from the ground of only 33% inches.
The SAE recently recommended empty vehicle floor heights not more than 48 inches (plus or minus two inches) for city-used vehicles with 9.00x20 tires. Reo's drop frame unit is about 15 inches less than SAE standards.
Available in all standard wheel-bases, Reo is working out a program for factory-installed bodies especially designed and produced for the drop frame chassis. Announcement of body type and prices will be made in the near future.
Check That Ashtray
With vacation time getting into full swing, motorists are being urged by the California State Automobile Association to be extra careful with fire.
Be sure that you have an ash-tray in your car and use it, urges CSAA. Many people do not realize that the California law requires cars to be equipped with ashtrays

Othman's Views on Washington Scenes
By FREDERICK C. OTHMAY
WASHINGTON — I got to thinking, sitting there listening to Sen. Joe McCarthy defend himself, that the most interesting moments of my life have been spent within the gray marble walls of the Senate caucus room.
The most embarrassing, too.
More than 20 years ago I had my first experience in this chamber, as the assistant to Lyle C. Wilson of the United Press, covering a hearing into American banking practices.
J. P. Morgan was on the witness stand. Wilson, my boss, was downstairs in the press room dictating, and I was on my own. Well, air, while I scribbled the facts about financial manipulations, a circus press agent led a lady midget in high-heeled shoes into the room and lifted her into Morgan's lap.
Banker Morgan didn't know what to do and he almost dropped her. But Othman knew his duty. He ignored this absurd incident and kept writing notes about high finance. The United Press was scooped on the midget because I considered it of no importance, and that was when Wilson's hair started to turn gray.
I never lived that one down insofar as Wilson was concerned, but I learned my lesson about news in the caucus room, where the shenanigans invariably are more interesting than the actual matters of state at hand. Let's consider a few of these shenanigans:
There was the historic afternoon when a committee was considering the fitness of the late Theodore G. Bilbo of Mississippi to serve as a senator. The testimony concerned Bilbo's alleged love nest—and sprightly listening it was, too.
I was absorbed in this when a pair of Bilbo's enemies took on a couple of his friends in a fist fight, there on the thick red carpet. So the cops rushed in to quell this riot.
Homer E. Ferguson (R., Mich.) investigating some skulduggery by a New Yosker in the disposal of millions of dollars worth of surplus war goods. The boss speculator asked to state his business, said he was a specialist in mother-of-pearl toilet seats. The senator blushed.
These proceedings lasted on and off for months. One black-marketeer in steel was so displeased about one of my dispatches that he sent word be'd have me killed. Fortunately he didn't.
Benny Meyers, the high-living Army officer, had his say in the caucus room. And there Howard Russel's talents as a movie star, took on ex-Senator Owen Brewster (R., Me.) in a protracted argument and won. I've forgotten exactly what the battle was about, but I do recall that Hughes was the victor.
In the caucus room I've heard the drys lambaste the wets year after year. There I observed a bandaged junk dealer explain how he suffered his wounds from a box of "nuts and bolts" he bought from the War Assets Administration. Somebody had made a small mistake—the nuts and bolts turned out to be nitroglycerine. Chester Bowles spent long days trying to justify the OPA in the caucus room, where his charts proved to be no help.
And there, not long ago, I watched Sen. McCarthy try in vain to discover who bought palm oil for the defense stockpile and stored it in Baltimore in standard steel tanks, where it turned harder than cement. The problem was how to get it out of the spigots. Unsolvable, said the experts.
I mean my memories of the caucus room are what you might call affectionate. Whenever the present proceedings there grow dull, I can ward in early May with a total increase of 32.1 percent during the first ten days, compared with the previous ten-day period, according to figures released from Detroit ambassadors, top of the line, led by rise with a 87.1 percent jump while Statesman sales increased 2 percent and Ramblers showed a gain of 32.7 percent.
Nash's new Metropolitan continued to show added consumer acceptance with another 8.8 percent gain—Buluck sold more than 50-100 cars in May for an all-time sales record during that month; previous record for May was established in 1950 when 48,650 units were sold. May was the third consecutive month in 1954 when retail deliveries exceeded 50,000—Chryser is now offering a new nickel-admium 6-volt battery which sells for $100. Though the price seems high, it is quite reasonable when one takes into consideration the fact that it is designed to last 10 to 15 years and will operate in temperatures as high as 165 and as low as 65 bellow zero—June output is expected to reach $200,000 cars and 90,000 trucks, according to automotive News estimated. Total outlook for the first six months of 1954 is for 2,975,000 cars. The Big Three took 95.2 per cent of the production pie last week. But with Kaiser and Willys resuming production, the independents should account for a higher slice during the coming week—In the Great Sales Battle, Chevrolet has crept head of Ford for the first time. With registration figures for the first three months complete, plus 6 states reporting for April, Chevrolet is how ahead by 26 cars.

Your Birthday Forecast By STELLA
WEDNESDAY, JUNE 16—Born today, you are a natural student and have exceptionally keen mental processes. On the other hand, you are inclined to be moody and restless and will need to concentrate on your objective if you are to reach your goal. In fact, you must pick out a single objective early in life or you may find yourself wandering about, unsettled as to your career until you have reached the late twenties. You have talents in many directions and because of this are too apt to scatter your energies. Learn to finish a job that you begin before starting something else.
You seem to have a talent for making money without appearing to exert too much of an effort. You seem to have the Midas touch. Just make sure that you learn how to hang on to it once you acquire it; for you also know how to spend lavishly. In business, partnership is a good idea, but if you enter the professions, follow your own star and don't let yourself be led around by others. You are quick to anger if others attempt to interfere with your life. Try to be a little more diplomatic; learn to listen to advice—later on you can then do as you decide.
You women usually learn this lesson early in life and because of that make fine homemakers, wives and mothers. Although you know how to pour oil on troubled waters to keep life smooth and happy at home, you also know how to run things quite your own quiet way!
Among those who were born on pending paragraph. Let your birthday star be your daily guide.
Thursday, June 17
GEMINI (May 22-June 21)—Optimism really pays off today. No matter what happens to irk you, keep that smile on your face!
CANCER (June 22-July 23)—Be warned against a sudden chance to make that quick dollar! First be sure it's an honest dollar.
LEO (July 24-Aug. 23)—Past experience can prove a great help today in solving a current problem. Follow the wisest course.
VIRGO (Aug. 24-Sept. 25)—There is a serious chance for error today, but exert caution and you can minimize it. Accuracy counts!
LIBRA (Sept. 24-Oct. 23)—Take a positive outlook on life. Some really nice things could happen, right now, if you look for them.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22)—This can be a day of important accomplishment if only you get an early start and work carnestly all the time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 22)—You should be able to enjoy the company of friends at your own home this evening, so entertain.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 23-Jan. 20)—There is plenty of time this evening for pleasant recreation, so work hard during daylight hours.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb., 19)—Better to let things stay as they are rather to jump from the frying pan into the fire. Be cautious.
PISCES (Feb. 20-Mar. 20)—Balance work and play carefully. Too much of the former is as bad for you as too much of the latter.

HOLLYWOOD (UP)--Hollywood has launched a talent search for an actor to portray Charles Lindbergh, but one hopeful star is not waiting to be discovered.
Tall, serious Marc Hamilton is on the phone or hustling around town every day to conduct the biggest one-man campaign for a film' role in recent movie town history.
When Columbia studio was preparing to film the life of Rudolph Valentino, the town was overrun with actors in patent leather hair and sideburns. One New York waiter had his face carved by plastic surgery to resemble the Sheik's.
Stubborn Actor
But not even he had the stubbornness of Hamilton.
When this hopeful thespian read about the plans of director Billy Wilder and producer Leland Hayward to film Lindbergh's life, he and his wife drove all the way to Hollywood from New York in his 1936 Ford. He spent his last pennies 9.64 to put an ad in a newspaper addressed to Hayward and Wilder.
In the ad he pointed out he was born in Lindbergn's St. Louis, that he is "tall and lean and has the same quality of expression as Lindbergh." He mentioned his minor theatrical experience on Broadway but didn't mention he also had worked as a gravedigegr. Also had worked as a gravedigger, worker and laborer on a construction gang.
Swamped By Calls
Hamilton was swamped by calls from agents and people who just wanted to wish him luck. Finally Wilder's secretary called to arrange for him to see the director.
"They said I'll be considered when they interview actors next fall," said Hamilton. "I guess every actor thinks he can do a certain role, and I know this one is for me. An actor can't just sit and wait. You have to get out and do something about it."
Hamilton makes the rounds of newspaper offices himself to present his case to the press. He wangled his way onto radio shows. Now he's trying to tell his story on a network television show.
The young actor works in television movies while waiting for the Lindbergh job. But his competition so far includes Charleton Heston, Guy Madison, Montgomery Clift and John Ericson.
