Jack Benny was asked to make

her how she did it. "I just asked

A boy raised in the hinterland is
educated not only by books but by
elemental and eternal things—
wind and rain, the growth of trees,
the way* of wild animals and the
helpleas habits of the tame.
He never fall* victim to the chief
crime of modern citle* which
is—to become * stranger to the

shy and reserved but he has an
interior self-reliance that makes up
for It.

Democratic resistance to Communism within
Russia's own satellites In Eastern Europe con-
tinues to spread.
The latest country to develop a crlai* be-
tween left and right is C*echoelov*kia. Thl* dif-
ference grow* out of Communist insistence on
broadening the basis of Red Influence in the gov-
ernment. A meeting of the coalition cabinet yes-
terday under Communist Premier Klement Gott-
wald resulted In hl* being given full powers.
This political clash wasn't unforseen, because
Czechoslovakia while small in size la huge In love
of Independence and couldn't be expected to en-
dure indefinitely, without protest, efforts to impose
totalitarian regimentation. So after two year* of
anixous effort o fit hersef into the Russian zone
of Influence and still retain her Independence she
now has displayed a strong element cf resistance
to Communism.
Czechoslovakia thu* join* other Russian bloc
nation* which have partle* of dissidents to Com-
munist domination, The»e include Poland, Hun-
gary. Romania. Finland and even Yugoslavia, al-
though In the last named country Red opposition
has been fairly well stifled — or has it?
Of course one would expect the current Czech-
oslovak crl*l* to be bridged temporarily. But the
anti-totalltarian element cannot be stifled.
The Czechoslovakian Imbroglio is particularly
Interesting in light of a U 8 State Department
statement made In a review of the development
of the Marshall plan for European recovery. This
declares that any governments, political parties,
or groups which attempt to prolong human misery
for political profit, will meet with unqualified op-
position from the United Btatee.
The report say* the interest of the United
States in European recovery arise* prlm«rtly from
the fact that "American security ha* traditionally
been based on the kind of Democratic Europe
which 1* now In Jeopardy.” It adds that "further
deterioration might be disastrous to Europe ’’
While Eastern Europe was producing thl*
additional opposition to Communism, Western
Europe displayed further signs of a »hlft to the
political right. Britain, whoee Conservative party
administered a smashing defeat to the dominant
Socialist* In the widespread municipal elections
the other day. confirmed he rawing to the right
in Tuesday's Scottish municipal elections where
the Socialist* suffered further setbacks.
Even more Impressive was a statement by
Socialist Deputy Prime Minister Herbert Morri-
son that the British government mustn’t frustrate
industrialist* by preventing them from doLwg their
Jobs. Said he:
“I do not see the point of Interfering in in-
dustry for the sake of interfering and I am wor-
ried about the risks of destroying the vigor and

WASHINGTON, Nov. •—<*>—Americans
the thousand* write into the State Department
every month and ask questions like these.
What’* our foreign policy? What’s our policy
on Germany? On Austria? On Japan? On Korea?
On Paestlne? And *o on, endlessly.
Individual* write In, aeklng the question*. So
do groups and organization*.
They ask because, under the huge flood of
lntem»Uonal events, they get hazy or bogged down.
The State Department finally ha* decided to
wrap up the answers in a single package, one
handy bundle. So It has put out a booklet.
This booklet, 64 pages long, will be published
Friday by the government printing office.
If you want a copy — It's not free — writ* to
the Superintendent of Document*. Wa«hington,
D. C.
The price? Tlw printing office hasn't decided
yet. Probably somewhere between 15 and 50 cent*.
The booklet doesn't try to cover the entire
field at foreign policy. And It doesn't go Into
great detail in the part* It explains.
But, the State Department says, the booklet
outline* a "number of the major foreign-policy
problems confronting the United State* today,
and some of the dlfflcultle* Involved In their
solution."
This Is what the booklet explain*:
1. The problems of making peace and occupy-
ing enemy territory, like Germany, Japan. Aus-
tria, and territory like Korea, which the Japanese
had held.
3. The United Nations and what thl* country
ha* sought to do in the U. N. and what the Rus-
sians have done.
3. The problems of supporting free nation*
and free election* in countries like Rumania, Bul-
garia, and Hungary and what the stumbling
blocks have been.
4. European recovery — or the problems of
trying to get Europe back on Its feet.
6. International economic policy — the prob-
lems of working out world trade.
6 Dependent areas Thl* involve* territory
like Palestine, teh former Italian colonies In Af-
rica. and so.
7. Armaments and atftmlc energy Thl* 1* an
explanation of this country’s Ideas about world
control of atomic weapons and sharing atomic
information.
8. 8. Th* inter-Amencan system — tills coun-
try's dealings with the other American republics.
