The Bulletin Editorial Page Saturday, April 4, 1959 Anaheim (Col.) Bulletin—B-3 The Berlin Bluff We should have learned long ago that the Communist technique is to employ confusion as a weapon against their "enemies." The Berlin "crisis" is a good example. In one breath Nikita Khrushchev sounds ominous threats if the West doesn't get out of Berlin by May 27. In the next breath he hints that May 27 shouldn't be taken as an absolute deadline. Of course, we have no intention of budging from Berlin. We and the French and British are there by agreement—an agreement in which the Russians are a party. The West Berlin residents want nothing more than to have us stay. Indeed, if we did not stay we would be violating our promise to these people. The economic condition of East Berlin is so tragically worse than the area under Western supervision that this has become a point of high embarrassment to the Kremlin. If they can kick us out, or trick us into withdrawing, they can then proceed to "level out" Berlin's economy. That would mean bringing it all down more or less to that now existing in the zone under Russian control. At least, the difference between the two areas would not be so glaring, so damning to the "superior" economic system which the Soviets boast about. The principal thing in this whole affair is to recognize it not as a genuine threat to the peace but as simply more Communist bluster. There is no real reason for us If they can kick us out, or trick us into withdrawing, they can then proceed to "level out" Berlin's economy. That would mean bringing it all down more or less to that now existing in the zone under Russian control. At least, the difference between the two areas would not be so glaring, so damning to the "superior" economic system which the Soviets boast about. The principal thing in this whole affair is to recognize it not as a genuine threat to the peace but as simply more Communist bluster. There is no real reason for us to get frantic about our defenses and call for new crash programs to meet this new "crisis." To be sure, we can't be careless about our defensive position but quiet alertness and fewer wails of alarm from congressmen would be in order. Assignment: Washington by Ed Koterba WASHINGTON — Blackie's head drooped, but he managed to look up through tassles of black hair at an old friend. And you heard a faint whimper. "I don't think he'll make it," said his old friend, the doc, gently. Blackie was going to die of leukemia, despite everything that the greatest health research institution in the world could do for him. Every day for many weeks, the young veterinarian, Dr. William I. Gay, has stopped by the meticulous cage of Blackie to talk to the old dog, to comfort him. You'd hardly expect to find this kind of personal tenderness at the imposing, vast National Institutes of Health, where practically all medical ills of the world congregate under microscopes before a complex of 1,000 scientists. That NIH, which sits in the Maryland suburbs almost against our back yard in Bethesda, sprawls acres of hope for the multitudes for generations ahead. To do a sound, complete, reporting job on what's going on behind the red-brick walls of the high and low buildings on the grassy slopes of NIH would take a lifetime. But what struck my fancy was the animals. It's a sort of an Old MacDonald's farm there, in addition to a zoo. For instance, they've got more monkeys at the institutions than you'll find in 100 zoos — 1,200 altogether. The little apes are used mostly to test Salk vaccine. Every time is safe for humans. If it weren't for all these animals, no telling how many thousands of people now enjoying a full life would have long joined their maker. The dogs and cats, like most of the other animals, are in stout health when they arrive at the National Institutes of Health. But Blackie's case was different. He was an ordinary, happy dog in a very comfortable home when his master learned that he had leukemia — cancer of the blood. So, tearfully, his master decided to part with her pet. Perhaps she thought, Blackie could serve humanity as he had served the household on so many lonely nights. The dog was taken to NIH. Of course, there was a chance that the research people could come up with a cure for him. Well, they tried. They removed his spleen, the organ near the stomach that stores a body's blood. And while the scientists — the world's greatest—kept close tabs, Blackie responded. "The treatment helped for several weeks," said Doc Gay. Then the dog began to waver. Now, when we stopped by his slatted cage, he was too tired to lift his tail. But he did come forward to greet Doc Gay., and his eyes responded to kind words. Just what Blackie has contributed to medical science will not be known for some time. But when he goes — probably in a few days — Blackie will have made his mark in medical history.

Everybody Your Birthday by Stella SATURDAY, APRIL 4 — Born today you are an independent, quick thinking individual whose temper will flare at the slightest intimation that anyone is crossing you. You are original and intensely ambitious. You probably will decide, early in youth, what you want out of life and go out after it, despite setbacks or opposition. In fact, it seems as if the more opposition you meet the better you enjoy the challenge. You must always guard against a pyrotechnic display of temper, for you will say and do things when angry which you may wish later to retract. But your habit of never backing down will prevent you. Since you are apt to be something of a "joiner" and like to participate in club and community affairs, you will probably not be one to wed too early in life. You will want to do considerable looking around, before you set on your mate. Choose someone born under Scorpio, Sagittarius or Capricorn for the best prospects for happiness. You need a mate who can "stand up to you" when you get one of your stubborn moods on! You have tremendous nervous energy, but your physical strength may not be as robust as you might wish. Be sure to guard against health upsets, since you do your best work when you are rested and relaxed. Among those born on this date are: Maurice de Vlaminck, French painter; Thaddeus B. Stevens, statesman and reformer; George Pierce Baker, educator. 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. SUNDAY, APRIL 5 ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 20) — After your morning devotions, invite someone home for Sunday dinner. personal affairs. Advance your interests at this time. (Copyright, 1959, by United Feature Syndicate, Inc.) SUNDAY, APRIL 5 — Born today you are a calm, determined individual who has a flare for the dramatic and can project this artistically, although you appear quite unaffected by the excitement you may occasion. You are an individualist and are always solving old problems in a new manner. You are quick to act and rarely say anything, at first. With you, actions are what count. You can talk about things later if you must! You are very critical and are something of a perfectionist in our own work as well as demanding it from others. You like to plan out a job and then have others execute it while you go on to develop another new idea. Since you have a good head for business, as well, it is likely that you will become financially independent while you are quite young. The sciences, as well as the arts, hold your interest and it will be up to you which path your life will take. Many fields are open to you. But whatever you select, one can be sure that you will stick to it until you have achieved your goal. Since you are very intuitive, you act instantly and usually move in the right direction while others are still trying to make up their minds to move! This gives you a head start which others find very difficult to overtake. Wed someone whose mind is as quick as your own, for your mate will need to be able to keep pace with you to contribute happiness to the union. Among those born on this date are: Booker T. Washington, Negro educator; Spencer Tracy, actor; Frank R. Stockton, author; Bette Davis, actress; William Congreve, dramatist.

Never before have so many stars appeared on one program. You name 'em, they'll be on the two-hour show—Ingrid Bergman, Clark Gable, Doris Day, Rock Hudson, Sophia Loren. Scores of stars who really appear on TV will be strutting their stuff in honor of Oscar night. Six masters of ceremonies, Bob Hope, David Niven, Tony Randall, Mort Sahl, Sir Laurence Olivier and Jerry Lewis, are scheduled to fill the gaps between presentations. And there will be specialty acts aplenty to break up the dull dolling out of statuettes. For instance, Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas—who also teamed last year—will sing and dance their way through "It's All Right With Us." Britishers To Sing English imports Dana Wynter, Joan Collina and Angela Lansbury will warble "It's Bully Not To Be Nominated." Rosafnd Russell and Sammy Davis Jr. have brief bits, as do Miss Bergman, Cary Grant, William Holden and John Wayne. An added fillip is the appearance of Eddie Fisher and Elizabeth Taylor on the same show. They will fly in from Las Vegas. Nev., for their stints. Debbie Reynolds had agreed to appear too, but her movie commits forced the ex-Mrs. Fisher to cancel out. Maurice Chevalier will sing "Thank Heaven For Little Girls" to a bevy of beauties, including Barbara Rush, Terry Moore, Arlene Dahl and Sandra Dee. But the main event—and the reason for all the hullabaloo—is the awards. Even minor Oscars will be presented by top-flight stars. Of the 10 nominees for best acting awards only Deborah Kerr among the actresses, and actors Paul Newman and Sidney Pottler, will be absent. A trio of supporting nominees also will be among the missing—Wendy Hillier and Maureen Stapleton in the actress division, and Arthur Kennedy among the actors. As balloting closed this week straw polls among academy members found the following six nominees the favorites: Best picture—"Gigi." Best actress—Susan Hayward, "I Want To Live." Best actor—David Niven, "Separate Tables." Best supporting actress—Wendy Hillier, "Separate Tables." Best supporting actor—Burl Ives, "The Big Country." Best director—Vincent Minelli, "Gigi." Capitol Dispatch by David Lawrence WASHINGTON — When Senator Stephen Young of Ohio, Democrat, decided to sell or publicize approximately $234,000 worth of stock-holdings, he may have thought this would remove any possibility of a so-called "conflict of interest." But today a senator votes on all kinds of financial questions and, even though all his holdings were in government bonds, someone could conjure up a "conflict of interest." Thus, if any senator votes to unbalance the budget, it could produce apathy on the part of the investor toward the purchase of government bonds. This might necessitate a steadily increasing interest rate which could benefit the senator just as much as, if not more than, dividends on some private stocks. There is scarcely a problem that comes before the senate for a vote that isn't directly or indirectly related to a man's own finances. But the case of Senator Young relates to stockholdings in particular industries, like oil and sugar, where concrete questions have arisen that may have to be voted on—whether to retain the present tax allowance in connection with the depletion of oil and gas properties and whether to limit imports of sugar. Senator Young says he has been receiving letters and circulars urging him to vote to retain the 27½ per cent depletion rate but that he favors cutting the allowance to 15 per cent, and voted that way when he was a member of the House of Representatives. Does this, however, dispose of the matter? Will it be accepted by everybody that the Senator is he had to reveal the nature of his wealth. How many voters, on the other hand, especially among the radicals now in the Democratic party, will be disturbed that any senator has so much money? Though the individual used to be exalted for his own enterprise and was rarely condemned for the mere possession of inherited wealth, there has been a chan in recent years. The trend of the agitation is toward socialism and a redistribution of wealth in some form of "equality." Many men of inherited wealth in the Senate and elsewhere have exhibited a kind of "guilt complex" and have in some instances transformed themselves into so-called "liberals" so as to make it appear that their wealth wasn't influencing them. They have often criticized the same conservative doctrines which enabled their parents in free America to amass a fortune. It's too bad that any man in public life feels he must cater to suspicion in order to stay in politics. It's too bad that a rich man in politics thinks he can prove his virtue only by attacking wealth or by selling all his holdings and converting them into cash so as to avoid every possible "conflict of interest." Even so, the purchasing power of his cash can depreciate if the Democratic party supports a spending spree. There's really no way to avoid some "conflict of interest" today if any man successful in his previous occupation enters public life. (Copyright, 1950, New York Herald Tribune Inc.) THE Family Scrapbook Enjoying Children All too often, when we think about bringing up children, it's the difficulties and the problems, the responsibility and the hard work of which we are most aware. And no one can deny that there's a liberal amount of each of these involved in the job. But it's all too easy to overlook the fun and enjoyment. We know that they are in the picture but our concern with the problems may almost push them out. And yet, if we stop to think about it, how relatively unimportant are their difficulties! What deep satisfaction there is in the delighted greeting mother or father receives from the two-year-old when we've been away for a few hours! What a warm feeling we have when Junior or his sister put their arms around us and say, "I love you." And what a glow there is at the time the inquiring mind of the six-year-old figures out something of which we never imagined he was capable! And these, of course, are but a few examples of the many, many ways in which our youngsters bring joy to our hearts. It's wise not to take such things for granted. Now and again, we can, with profit, sit down and talk together about the joys and satisfactions there are in being a parent. (Copyright, 1959, United Feature Syndicate, Inc.)
