is following the Truman-Acheson
foreign policy: military alliances
and foreign aid.
Whether that’s right or wrong,
now that the Russians have shift-
ed their tactics, remain* to be
seen. But when it comes to new
programs, Stevenson so far hasn’t
been very productive either.
When you cut through all Stev-
enson has said, the difference he
seems to see between himself and
Eisenhower on foreign policy is not
so much a difference in programs,
or the lack of them, but in atti-
tude.
He suggests the Eisenhower ad-
ministration has alienated other
peoples by bluster, and he says
he would show them respect as
individuals to win them over.
Both men agree disarmament —
when it can be worked out with
safeguards— is a key to peace.
Both agree this country is in a
contest with Russia for the hearts
and minds of men and that they
must be helped with American aid.
Some may think Stevenson has
suggested something brand new
regarding H-bomb tests. It can
hardly be called a solid proposal
until Stevenson has made it clear
WARSAW, Poland ( — Commu-
nist Poland now is actively en-
couraging private enterprise.
In past years private tradesmen
and shopkeepers suffered from a
ruthless taxation system, although
some prospered - mainly those
who resold goods brought in from
abroad. Many thousands of others
were driven out of business. Not
only had they to pay high taxes,
but frequently they were faced
with unexpected levies and had to
pay up or go out of business.
Craftsmen like tailors and shoe-
makers also had the greatest dif-
ficulties in getting material.
The result was that it was prac-
tically impossible to find a plumb-
er if pipes froze up in winter, or
to get a house painted.
Shoes and clothing in practice
could be conveniently bought only
through state stores which through
lack of competition had goods of
poor quality.
The policy began to change a
year ago and now the change is
accelerating.
One young Pole trained as tailor
told how he decided to open his
own business:
"The authorities gave me help
in finding premises. The state
textile company gave me credit
to stock up with material. Even
better. I don't have to pay any
taxes whatever for the first year."
If his young Pole starts off well
he will be able to employ perhaps
three or four craftsmen to help
him. But any really spectacular
success story is unlikely as the
system stands now.

cease to be a buffer against the
kind of surprise attack Nazi Ger-

Responsible officials stressed a
belief that Poland’s drive for in-

the Kremlin was caught by sur-

Now that the initial shock has
eased, they said, Khrushchev and
other top Kremlin leaders un-

possibility of outright military
force cannot b eruled out even

Russia agrees to do the same.
On the problem of colonialism
both men have been blanks. Ei-
senhower hasn't mentioned the
word in this campaign. Stevenson
has mentioned it a couple of times
but without conveying any under-
standable meaning.
A law passed in the closing days of the last Con-
gress and signed by the President makes it uplawful
for any person to place in inter-state commerce any
household refrigerator manufactured on or after the
law becomes effective unless it is equipped with a
special closing device. Such devices will enable the
door to be opened from the inside and must also con-
form with the standards to be prescribed by-the Sec-
retary of Commerce. The purpose of this law is to
put an end to the continually mounting death toll of
small children—115 in the past ten years—that have
been trapped and suffocated in these boxes while
playing. *
The effective date of this law is approximately 14
months off. However, it is hoped that industry will
not require that much time. Some manufacturers
have long been concerned with the problem. General
Electric, for instance, began its research several years
ago on a closing device that would help make a refrig-
erator child-safe and announced seven months before
“I note that Mart Stover is go-
ing to make a hunter out of his
new grandson, Jeffery Linn Bowl-

is also'granddad to Jeffery Linn.
Mart may succeed partially in
that hope, but if he becomes a
hunter, he is also going to be a
policeman—maybe a police-hunt-
turous youngsters continue to lose their lives in suf-
focating darkness.
All credit is due to the manufacturers who have
sought in advance of legal requirements to eliminate
this horror. And may their example dramatize the
danger in the cast-off. But, unless we do a better job
of dismantling old boxes before they are discarded,
the next ten years could roll up a more shameful rec-
ord than the past decade.

Congress passed the law that all of its new refrig- '
erators would be equipped with the new Magnetic
Safety Door. There are no latches or mechanical
closing devices whatever. Doors are held shut by
permanent bar magnets and can be pushed open from
the inside. In order to speed the safety program the
company has offered to license other manufacturers to
use the magnetic door idea.
But even if every refrigerator manufactured today
were equipped with this safety feature, the problem
will remain with us for another ten years or more—
since it will be approximately that long before the new
safety boxes begin to replace the present death-traps
among the discards in junk heaps and vacant lots,
backyards and basements.
Thus, the peril of the abandoned refrigerator re-
mains, for the time being, what it has been. In spite
of widespread publicity, in spite of laws being con-
sidered in many states requiring the removal of doors
and latches before these boxes are thrown out, adven-

The Better Hating • Cooling
Council reports! fluid heating and
cooling equipment sales thia year
will reach 353 million dollars, a
gain of 10 per cnt over a year
ago. Hot water heating lost favor
shortly after World War II, but
the council says it’s coming back
now, thanks to new radiators or
convectors that both heat and
i cool.

gets closer. Oilmen say they,
I should sell about 10 per cent more
fuel oil this year than last—a rate
of gain that has been fairly steady

The 12 school in the Denton Independent School Dis-

now the Board of Education has encouraged the use by
the public of the relatively new school names, such as
Stonewall Jackson rather than North Ward. But there
are no signs. Why?
Perhaps the Chamber of Commerce or city officials
could persuade the Texas Highway Dept to provide
signs for the two colleges. And the job of marking
the public schools might be good projects for the in-
