Trust the British to come up with a cunning plan
for someone else to pay the freight whenever a diplo-
matic maneuver to in progress. The latest gem was
devised by Prime Minister Anthony Eden and his
regard to the Middle East problem,
r-point program which Eden and Foreign
Secretary Selwyn Loy will try to selk to President
Eisenhower when they’visit him in about three weeks.
The first point calls for Israel to allow 900,000
Arab refugees back into the country or pay them for
their lost property. Naturally, the Arabs will take the
cash, which to estimated at around $1,000,000,000.
Britain was clever enough to think up this plan, but
guess who supplies the $1,000,000,000. Right the first
time! The United States, good old generous Uncle
Sam, to to"be privileged to supply the $1,000,000,000.
Point two calls for a steady flow of arms to Israel
and to the Arab nations. It was not stated who would
supply the arms, whether they are to be given away or
did. If they are to be sold, it’s a safe bet Great Britain

may ask: Why a lower tax on ‘'un-

The reason some folks deliber-

stoat with a chance to increase in

capital gains tax on property held

as 25 per cent. But any of the

Feb. 13. Russia picked up what
it had ignored before: the Eisen-

against use of American-British-
French troops in the Middle East,
put itself in the position of pro-
tecting the Arabs, and accused the
West of being more interested in

The Army’s all-important mission is to uphold the
Iterate of the United States, in a ehooting war, in
old war. or in peace. During times of peace its major
union is to deter aggression. To successfully deter
ggression, its ability to fight and win must be so con
Krina that any potential enemy knows in advance
ission on his part would not pay.
Ality is not measured in terms of weapons,
t and active forces alone. It is also based to
at extent on the existence of a trained, fully
and manned Ready Reserve. One cannot
overaempnasize the need for a trained Reserve. We
must at all times recognue that the tools of far, how-
ever vital a role they may play to tty confict, are
useless without men who are trained to use them.
The very nature of global war decrees that the
Army become increasingly flexible and mobile. It also
I aecrees that a high state of preparedness exist at all
times in both our active and Reserve forces. Our
r Army, tike the age it is a part of, to constantly chang-
- ing. It to forever developing new tools and new tech-
2 niques, and its men must know how to use and apply
them.
No longer can we afford to spend long months
after a conflict begins in preparing our Reserves for
their vital role. This training must be timely and con-
tinuous. Those of us who have shared life on the bat-
tlefield know all too well that it to neither fair to the
[ individual nor his country for a man to enter combat
without adequate training.
Today-through the Reserve Forces Act of 1955--
we have a means of assuring our country of a strong,
reliable, and Ready Reserve. This act offers the youth
of this country a means of discharging their military
obligations without disrupting their careers or edu-
cation — an unprecedented opportunity that every
young man should seize.
To the employer who cooperates in the training
program, it oners among other things a better satisfied
labor force, more responsible employes, and fewer
‛ men required to be away from the job for 30 to 45
days of annual training. To the United States it offers
the assurance of a fully manned, well equipped, and
adequately trained Ready Reserve.
The size of our active Army and the future of this
nation rest upon the success of our Reserve program.
To insure posterity the same blessings of democracy
which we cherish, it is necessary that the youth of
America be aware of their responsibility to their gov-
ernment, and meet it faithfully.

Women, generally the stern real-
ists of the human race, seem to
come apart at-the seams at this
season. They appear lost in a cloud
of moonbeams. Their usual whims
of iron become whims of molass- !
oa. They are alternately demand-
ing and placating, wistful and pet-
ulant.
“What gets into women around
Valentine anyway?" the ordinary
man grumbles. “What do they
want?"
The part of the problem to sim-
ple. A child may believe in Santa
Claus all year round, but it to the
present it finds under the tree at
Christmas that confirms its belief.
Women are like that about love.
Through most of the year a man
can talk them into believing he
loves them dearly, but at Valen-
tine they want something more in
the way of proof than conversa-
tion.
The nge or size of the present
you give them isn’t so important.
Often a small sprig of old dia-
monds will please them as much
at a big heavy new mink coat.
The main thing to that you re-
member them in a special way.
The bachelor, of course, is in
special peril at this time. He may
find that the box of candy he buys
a girl at Valentino will wind up
by June into a honeymoon he has
to pay for on the instalment plan.
How can the cagey bachelor
please his girl at Valentine and
still not commit himself unalter-
ably?
Here to a good sound tip: present '
her with an Irish sweepstakes <
ticket. If her horse wins, she’ll ,
have enough dowry to set him up <
in business. If her horse loses, he
can then tell her, “So long, kid. <
It's been nice knowing you, but
I gave you your chance. You can't

to tie himself up for life to a hard
luck dame like you."
