day how much paper is wasted
each day in this country of stuff
that the average daily flips into
the wjpste basket without a mo-
ments' hesitation .■ . . and yet,
each morning the postoffice box
fills up again with the same
stuff. If the D.-V. even used a
fifth of the free publicity matter
that the postal department brings
in each day, we’d have no room
for the live local news that is
the lifeblood of our community
daily. < 1 • '
Bill'Hines has been thinkin’ of
setting up a place downtown to
organize some square dancin'
classes and holding regular
dances, with callers and guitar-
strummers et cetera. But he’s
about given pp the idea. Sez
his -wife thinks he’s too impa-
tient-. He-has -always seemed
pretty easy-going to me. Any-
way, it’s tough finding the right
.yzed hall downtown.
Terrell Graves says he can
find out more information from
Monty Gideon than in the D.-V.
Monty, it seems, always has the
straight dope, and we’ll have to
build a pipeline d|own to the
corner.
Some Coleman county girl be-

opened this month for a young

serve as a goodwill and, fashion
ambassadress for the . National
Cotton council. If you’re at least
five feet five, never been mar-
ried, born in a cotton-producing
state such as Texas and eager
for fame, better send in your ap-
plication to Memphis, Tenn., be-
fore Dec. 1.

The foreign minister" .of the United ri-tuU

There are mam si-rimi* problems on that table find if tin”.'
an- not settled effectively, .the world is going, t lib in bad
shape for scores of years. Among tin. i- problems is one that
will not appear on 1 he ’ agent la and probably will never be

and it is difficult to arouse them to the peril- in which the
stand. —
At the outbreak of the. Korean war thi wisecrack wa-
'heard: “Well, it certainly was a short peace." That is the nub!
of the problem, and that is why Piv fil> nt Truhian is working |
to confine tite war, to K:Tea: why he refuses even to|
call it a war bnt.refers to it :i a fv.lice action. ~ •’ (
Two’decades elap , I between. World War I .did World War
II. Ruined cities wen i.built, a nett g iphvition of -oldiei’s

Japan, Russia, China and other nations were just crawling
out from under the wreckage. The hospitals still are crowd-
ed with Warlrl War II wounded. The vines have not grown
high around the white crosses on two continents and a dozen
islands in the Pacific. People td.l remember Omaha Ibach
in Normandy,.Hiroshima. Stalingrad. Anzio and Iw.. .lima. |
Persons who have passed safely through one horror only
to find themselves in the midst of another are tempted to say
“‘‘What’s the use?"
Naturally war weariness is worst in countries which have j
suffered most. Take Germany, for instance. •
“I have fought against the Russians and it was worse than
hell,” a cab driver in Frankfurt told the United I’refts, "they
will not get me in uniform again."
A business man in Duesseidorf: "Unless there is some con-
vincing proof that the west can hold Europe, I see little sense
in fighting if an attack were to start today."
Leaders of all the Democracies -eem to ense that senti-
ment, in small or large degree, in all their nations. There
probably-is less of it in the United •''dates than anywhere else, |
but the grim fact is that this nation cannot fight Russia and , ^ r llvE—.Vmrris A Mum

on "that feeling. Aggressive' Communist minorities seized! J
power in many of the Balkan nations while a war-wearv ma-
jority stood by helpless. Too many people in Europe felt like
the two Germans do today.
The three statesmen at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel realize
that guns, tanks and planes are not enough. They must some-
how inspire free men around the world to another effort tq
keep the things they already have won at great expenditure
of blood and treasure.
