' Weapons for U. S. Arsenal
News that the Navy seeks authority to build a submarine
propelled by atomic energy, to be ready in 1952, is followed b.v
announcement that the Army has developed an anti-aircraft
rocket, capable of shooting down an airplane flying at 60,000
feet, and another missile promises to produce greater results
against hostile airplanes at even higher altitudes.
Admiral Forest P. Sherman, Chief of Naval Operations, al-
so speaks up for the construction of a guided-missile cruiser
despits the fact that, two years ago, the Navy stopped construc-
tion on the Kentucky, which it intended to arm exclusively with
rockets. At that time the program in guided missiles did not
seem to justify construction of the Kentucky, and other ships
for the same purpose, but apparently the development of this
weapon has been considerably accelerated.
The atomic energy propelled submarine will depend upon
the construction of an intermediate reactor. Contracts have been
let with two electric companies for the construction of the de-
vices to facilitate nuclear propulsion for ships. The reactors
are intended to produce large amounts of steam for conversion
into power by unexplained means.

U* S. Rejects Red
Offer Repay Lend
Lease 2c on $1
WASHINGTON, May 11 (UP)—
The United States has rejected an
offer by Russia to settle its lend-
lease account for two cents on the
dollar.
Both sides were described as “far
apart” in their three-year-old nego-
tiations to reach a settlement on
the $11,000,000,000 in lend-lease
goods s&nt to Russia during World
War II.
State Department officials said
Russia has made several proposals
I for “token” payments. All have
I been rejected. One of these was
said unofficially to be an offer to
puy $200,000,000. •
The United States is not at-
tempting to collect for all the lend-
lease shipments to Russia, but the
Soviet Union was supposed to pay
for items left over after the war
if they had peacetime value.
This country is believed to be
seeking $1,000,000,000 in payments.
Some usable, aircraft reportedly
were left over from lend-lease
goods sent to Russia.
MOTHER’S DAY SUGGESTIONS
28 Cases Texas
Polio Last Week
AUSTIN, May 11 (UP)—Twen-
ty-eight cases of polio were re-
ported last week, hiking the year’s
total to 390, the State Health De-
partment reported.
The 1960 total remained well
ahead of the figure over a com-
parable period last year, when 178
cases had been reported.
The 390 cases this year have
been recorded in 7T ’counties, the
Health Department said, while
only 44 counties were represented
in the 1949 figure over a similar
period.
However, the 28 cases for the
week ending May 6 was'three less
than the previous week.
Polio continued to strike hard
during the past week at the Rio
Grande Valley, as 15 cases were,
reported in Hidalgo county. Ten
cases were reported there the pre-
vious week.
Other counties reporting last
week were:
Cameron, Collin and Galveston,
2 each; and Darias, Harris, Jeffer-
son, Lamayr McLennan, Tarrant
and Tom .Jfreen, 1 each. „
The Health Department said that
88 cases have been reported this
j year in Hidalgo county, placing it
in the lead among counties listing
polio incidence.
Food Price Index
Jumps Five Cents
NEW YORK, May 11 (UP)—The
Dun A Bradstreet wholesale food
price index jumped five cents Wed-
nesday to the highest level in 16
months, the agency reported.
Steadily rising prices for meats,
the agency said, were largely re-
sponsible for the increase.
New Mexico Visitor
Mrs. Helen Green of Artesia,

have been friends since the Brooks
family lived in Artesia several
years ago.
and stagger in . to breakfast.
The coffee is either too hot or
it’s too cold.
You had an appointment at 8
a.m. and the man fails to show up.
Then, at quitting time in the after-
noon, the man shows up. When
you finally stagger home, tired
and disgruntled, you decide to take
a shower and listen to the radio.
But guests «re coming to dinner, or
you’re suppoeed to go out to din-
ner, and there’s so much static
you dan’t hear the radio.
These are times that try men’s
souls, all right, and they happen
to the best of us. Or the worst of
us.
It couldn’t be that you just got
up on the wrong side of the bed.
When you are disgruntled at the
breakfast table, it’s because you
haye a premonition of the kind of
day that’s coming up, and you wear
the type of mood to fit the day.
Nothing hurts worse than trying
to smile and look cheerful when
you’d like to frown and hiss.
There’s only one consolation. To-
morrow must be better, because it
darn sure couldn’t be worse.
Unless, of course, the transmis-
sion finally goes out on your car;
you get a notice from the Bureau
of Internal Revenue that you owe
some back taxes; you’re overdrawn
at t^e bank: your best friend is
broke in Oshkosk and wants you
to wire 20 bucks post-haste, and
you suddenly discover that you
need' some new fillings in your
teeth.
Austin’s Optimistic Conclusion
Speaking on the fifth anniversary of the San Francisco Con-
ference, which produced the United Nations organization, War-
ren R. Austin, chief U. S. representative to the world group, says
that “the United States will not allow war’to occur and she will
maintain peace because nobody will dare start ope.”
This is an interesting declaration which, despite its com-
forting assurance, will hardly be believed by the people of this
country. The United States is not in a position to prevent any
war from beginning if the Soviet Union decides to make war.
Moreover, there is little on the record at this time to prove that
the Communists will not dare to start one.
The survey of international affairs, made by Mr. Austin,
from the vantage point of his position,'is optimistic. He says
that the world has never before been so cooperative for peace
as it is today and there exists the greatest organization of inter-
national regulation in the history of the world.
Political differences that have arisen ad a sequel to the war
could not have been handled, declares Mr. Austin, if there ha<j
not been a world-wide wish for agreement. Moreover, the United
Nations, whilq it has no international police force, has not had
a total failure in a single instance where it has attempted to
solve the disputes brought before the Security Council.
The political winds begin to blow but t^ie experts differ as
to the direction. ■/
WHat one hears oVer the radio depends upon what one is
willing to listen to.
