It would seem that the “moot"
question about the appearance of
the Ground Hog won't be settled
this year, though it has been up
for argument pro and con for lo
these many years. At the fireside
chib, you can readily get an argu-
ment either way, as there are pro-
ponents of Feb. 2 as the emergence-
day for the G Hog from his winter
hibernation, yet there are those
who are just as firmly imbedded
with the belief that the "weather
forecasting animal" does not make
his appearance to look at the out
side world until Feb. 14. At the
Fireside Club, you pays your mon-
ey and you takes your choice as to
which side of the argument you
will be on. Anyway, some will con
sider the weather decided for six
weeks after February, while oth-
ers won’t count on weather until

WASHINGTON • _ Secretary
of State Dulles snd foreign
aid chief Harold Stassen left on a
special mission to Europe today,
carrying with them some last-
minute “suggestions snd guid-
ance” from President Eisenhower.
Traveling aboard Eisenhower’s
official plane, a four-engine Con-
stellation—the two took off from
Washington airport st 8:26 a.m.
(CST).
Before their return Feb. 9, Dulles
and Stassen are due to visit the
capitals of seven West European
nations.
The two chief architects of this
nation's foreign affairs program
breakfasted with the President be-
fore driving to the airport.
Afterwards, Dulles told report
ers:
"We got some final words about
our prospective trip—final advice
and instructions from the Presi
dent."
Eisenhower wished they: "Good
luck to you both."
Before leaving, Dulles handed
newsmen a statement which
seemed to soften somewhat the
criticism he voiced earlier this
week of the slowness of West Eu-
rope in bringing about a unified
defense program.
He said the European Defense
Community (EDC) had been “de
veloped by the Europeans them-
selves with great courage snd im-

unity which all recognize as neces-
