Financial Souls
This, it developed last month. Is
the season for prominent political
figures to unveil their financial
souls and bring all their debits,
credits, and cash contributions out
into the beautiful sunlight for pub-
lic scrutiny.
The cash-and-carry-go-round be-
gan with the disclosure of GOP
presidential nominee Richard Nix-
on's >18,000 expense account, do-
nated by wealthy Californiahs.
which he used to help run his sen-
ate office.
Senator Nixon, who didn't know
whether he was on or off the ticket
for several days, made a dramatic
recovery by giving a complete ac-
counting to the American people
in an emotion-drenched nationwide
television broadcast.
Then it was Democratic candi-
date Adlai Stevenson's turn to tell
all in connection with fpnds he re-
ceived from outside sources and
distributed in the form of bonuses
to key state employees whom he,
as governor of Illinois, considered
to be underpaid.
To his credit, Stevenson made
public a detailed, concise report of
his receipts and disbursements
along this line.
The hue and cry then turned to
Dwight Eisenhower, who was asked
to explain the fact that he paid
only a 25 per cent capital gains fax
on the million-dollar income from
his book, "Crusade in Europe.*’
Explanation was that the Internal
Revenue Bureau, under a law in
effect then but since repealed, per-
mitted Ike to deciare himself an
•’amateur" writer and put the
sales of his book in the category of
the sale of “personal property”—
referring to the notes and diaries
he kept as a World War II general.
None of these transactions ap-
peared to offend the moral sense
of American voters to any great
degree. They looked, listened, and
wondered whether all the personal
revelations and financial statements
were being made from high ethical
motives or as a matter of expe-
diency to get off a hot political
spot.
Immediate effect of the whole
business was to obscure other, and
perhaps more important, election
issues that were sidetracked dur-
ing the period of soul-baring. Most
constructive result may be the es-
tablishment of a trend to bring pol-
iticians’ incomes, traditionally as
secret as the inside of an atom
bomb, out into the open for public
judgment.
For the first Ume since World
War I, American, British and
German generals were on the
same side when the West Ger-
man border police launched ex-
tensive maneuvers at Bad Orb,
side ef the Iron curtain, to test
their effectiveness against
partisan-type warfare, Infiltra-
tion and sabotage—some of the
doges snre to be used in the
event of an attack from the
east. High-ranking American,
British, Canadian, and German
officers supervised the war

EUROPEAN ARMY:
Needed: More Time
Allied military forces in western
Europe are developing into an or-
ganization with a hard-hitting po-
tential, but if they were attacked
today the best they could hope to
do would be to fight a defensive
action.
And, says Gen. Matthew Ridg-
way, supreme Allied commander
in Europe, the only answer to that
problem is time — time to build.
“We do not have a mobile land
reserve,” Ridgway told a group of
correspondents. “We will fight
practically in place with what we
have on the ground.”
Rejecting any notion that a let-
up in western rearmament is pos-
sible at this time. General Ridg-
way said that at the present time
he does not have an adequate cov-
ering force, nor adequate reserves
to back them up, nor adequate
logistical support for either one.
Thus, Allied officials are hoping
fervently that the Russians don’t
have any intentions that might
match up with their present poten-
tial for attack.

STUMPING:
Undignified?
Major party presidential candi-
dates may find themselves exhaust-
ed by election day, but, win or
lose, they have one compensation
—an almost unparalleled opportu-
nity to learn the nation’s geog-
raphy first hand.
It was not always so. In the early
days of the Republic it was con-
sidered undignified for a presi-
dential nominee to stump the coun-
try, although a few did indulge in
the practice.
Until 1836, the nominees adhered
on the surface to the idea ex-
pressed by William Lowndes of
South Carolina, who said in 1821
• that “the presidency is not an of-
fice to be either solicited or de-
clined.” •
The leading candidates seldom
made public appearances, or state-
ments on controversial political
matters. Instead of active “elec-
tioneering,” they were content to
remain behind the scenes.
In 1836. William Henry Harrison
violated the early principles while
running against Martin Van Bur-
en. He took to coach and horse-
back, covering the Middle Atlantic
states and traveling as far west as
Illinois. He lost. In 1840, the sit-
uation was reversed. Harrison con-
fined his traveling to his home
state of Ohio while Van Buren
made limited presidential visits to
New York. Pennsylvania, and New
Jersey. Harrison won.

Stephen A. Douglas was criti-
cized in 1860 for his campaign ac-
tivities. Lincoln won without leav-
proposals ing his home state of Illinois.
In 1880, James A. Garfield de-
fied tradition and won the election

Dgy-Tight Compartminti
A/f RS. SAMUEL ROSENTHAL, Newark, N.J., says she can nevei
Ju »^ei?e*IP^>€rv when things, however insignificant,
aldn t bother her. She worried constantly. In fact she declares
she was the “coward who dies a thousand deaths.”
V, hen she was told that her mental attitude had brought
severe hypertension she was sure that this would inevitably bring
about heart trouble. So sure was she that on the
day she did suffer a heart attack she knew what -----------
it was before the results of a cardiograph were
known.
While in the hospital she was warned that
her worrying would prevent recovery, but by
that time she was lost in a whirlpool of regrets
and a hopeless outlook for the future.
Then her daughter happened to bring from
the library a book, recommended by the librari-
an. She didn’t expect to glean anything from
“lust a book”. The days v'ere long in the hospital
and when she began to read to fill in the weary hours, words of
■wisdom in the book seemed to be written just for her. She read
that book over again, and now that she is recuperating at home
she still refers to it. ’
She says it has wrought for her what well meaning advice
from various people, what warnings from doctors, and what her
own conscience told her, could never do. And the most valuable
piece of advice for her—that the book contained was to live in
day-tight-compartments, and the advice she wc,uld pass on to the
rest of us is to live each day by itself and not allow worry to
enter, J
lions. Perhaps the monsters fright-
en her when they roar and show
their teeth and she hopes that if
she ignores them they will fade
like bad dreams.
This is the way some persons
heed news of atomic reaction. Of
course some crazed ones take
enormous delight in contemplat-
ing the destruction and death im-
prisoned in the atom and are fas-
cinated by thoughts of the release
of doom, but most normal persons
confronted with the subject of the
atom plead with their eyes and a
half apologetic tongue that you for-
sake fantasy and discuss food,
clothing, politics, football.
Their expression is something
like the bored pout my little girl
wears when she pulls me away
from viewing the elephants and
leads me to the bird cages. I sup-
pose that, to her. as to one of the
blind men in the poem, the ele-
phant is very ir.tMh U*« * wall
' refusal to contemplate tlie •!«-
phant—both are inattention i>
something too big to comprehend.
Some persons stare blankly at
headlines proclaiming the won-
drous feats of power to be per-
formed by atomic energy in their
time and fail to be impressed
enough ever to read the stories
underneath unless they concern
some new destruction to be wrought
by the A-bomb. The readers save
their marveling for a late model
motorcar or a new potato peeler
or a new track record set by a
race hqrse.
And in like manner my small
daughter at the zoo observes the
elephant with the same blank stare
that persons unlearned in astron-
omy turn toward the sky when
they feel like noticing the heavens
at all. It’s too big to mean much
to them. If the elephant raises jiis
trunk and starts trumpeting, the
little girl cringes in fear, much as
the adult does when an awful
storm breaks with thunder and
lightning.
At the zoo. my small daughter
reserves her admiration for the
tiny birds, snakes, turtles and
monkeys. Even the larger exam-
ples of these speties—the os-
triches, anacondas, huge turtles
and gorillas—she refuses to specu-
late about. She isn’t swayed by the
strength, agility and majesty of
With the coming of cooler
weather, the chance for fires
will increase unless the farm-
stead is checked for fire hazards
and corrective measures taken.
