DEATH STRUGGLES ARE HARD
have taken his action if it had not been with the backing of Rus-
sia. And Egypt may have proceeded with the more confidence in
acting on the theory that the world was tired of war, and would
not break out with another one on account of the Suez action.
And so far as this country was concerned. Nasser was right We
put up such a front that Britain and France backed down from
the use of force when the Suez was nationalized.
The Old World's problems have been complicated through
the hundreds, and thousands, of years, when countless wars have
beer, fought, in good and bad causes. Old hates have carried for-
ward from one controversy to another. Fortunately for the New
World, not so many conflicts have broken out during our com-
paratively short history; and few old grudges become mixed
with new problems. But we have been lucky at that. For one
thing, we told the Old World that any attempt that might be
made to gain a foothold in the Americas would be considered by
the United States as an unfriendly act. Up to now we have gotten
away with that position, and without fighting a war with any-
body. Also, the New World has an important canal of its own —
the Panama. Thus far, there has been no one to question the right
of thw country to control our car.a!. But there could be. Suppose,
for instance, that the Republic of Par.ama should tell us that,
.r.&smiK'h as the Par.ama is on their soil, they would just nation-
alize it; probably with the provision that they would pay us for
whatever we might have been out on the job of digging the ditch.
What would be our action then—to send troops down there?

that would eventually be cast over the Indian peoples. And
India has been shocked by the brutality in Hungary. The Arabic
countries have been taken in by soft-spoken promises and sug-
gestions from the Kremlin. It might be too much to hope for;
but Saudi Arabia, etc., might not care to have Russian tanks
trampling over helpless natives, perhaps armed with nothing
more- powerful than a bayonet. Even China, or maybe Japan,
could see some sort of lesson in the loss of liberty by the Russian
satellites The peace of all future generations may depend largely
on some kir.d of check being placed on the Russian bear, garbed
in sheep's clothing.

importance of free use of the Canal is better realized from the
fact that the countries of Europe must have three million barrels
of oil per day, and with 2 million of it from the Middle East.
Three-fourths of that amount comes through Suez, with the bal- \
.anee coming through pipe lines to the Mediterranean coast. When
Egypt managed to become freed from the protectorate of Britain,
the situation was bad enough; but it became impossible when the
Canal weu> taken over. Even that, however, would not have
seemed a fatal step, except for the conniving of Russia being at
She bottom of the whole thing. President Nasser would never
the Chinese into submission in Northern Korea. And the News
writer thinks maybe Britain and France are regretting now their
failure to properly arm NATO. And now Hungary. It should be
disconcerting to the most calloused for us to witness the pitiful
appeal of the Hungarians, crushed under hobnailed Russian
boots; with the world looking on, sympathetic but passing by on
the other side of the Samaritan who was wounded by robbers.
The News editorial said: "Is it possible that we stand to lost most
of all when we do nothing about Hungary? History, however,
has no forgiveness for sins of omission. What we have written

Not Everyone Wins
The Nobel Prise
In ancient times a child was lucky if he lived to reach the age of 20. A
baby born today, however, has a good chance to spend at least 70 years on
earth. Practically everyone knows that much of the credit for this impressive
gain must go to medical research which takes place in hospitals, in colleges,
and in schools of medicine.
Some of this research is recognized by the Nobel Prize or by some other
famous award. For most researchers, however, there is no great prize aside
from the satisfastion that comes with adding knowledge to the human store,
and with helping to improve people's health and prolong the span of life.
Whether recognized by the Nobel Prize or not, the practical benefits
of this research is made available to all of us through the training and facili-
ties provided by your retail pharmacist and his prescription service.
