268 Good Morning! Habit, if not resisted, soon becomes Seaway Dream Come True The St. Lawrence Seaway, dream for centuries, will open today when approximately 60 ships will start navigating the 600-mile link between Montreal and Lake Erie. The waterway cost ahout $450 million with the United States putting tip $145 million and Canada the balance. A huge power project, sponsored jointly by Canada and New York State and costing about $650 million, is already near completion and will be the second largest power producer in the Western Hemisphere. This power project has generated an industrial boom at Massena along the St.

Lawrence in New York State. So many industries, principally aluminum, are expanding operations or building new plants that all the power has already been sold out. This guarantees the eventual paying off of the bonds floated by the New York State Power Authority for construction of its share of the project. But the outlook is not everywhere so rosy. Differences over the amount of tolls to be charged for the United States' share of the seaway have been bitter and are expected to continue.

The backers of higher tolls claim that the present charges will not make the seaway self-supporting, wblch vss a. iaric premise of the undertaking. The seaway who want lower tolls reply that the government has traditionally aided navigation. Unless the seaway self-liquidating, however, it will become a perpetual burden on the taxpayers, great many of whom will derive no benefit from it. Traffic the first season is not expected to be heavy, because harbor improvements at many lake ports are not completed.

But traffic is expected to swell to a heavy, flow In years to come. The new ocean-vessel route is supposed to carry the goods and products of vast Mid-America to customers throughout the world. In return the lake ports would become the receiving harbors of the products and raw materials from nations around the globe. However, if the United States continues to increase its costs and to price its goods out of the world market while the industrial might of other nations continues to grow, the St. Lawrence Seaway could become pretty much of a one-way street, with most of the traffic inbound.

The Job Ahead for the GOP The appointment of Senator Thruston B. Morton of Kentucky as the national chairman of the Republican party appears not to strengthen the party's determination to campaign the year around instead of just a couple of months before election time. Senator Morton is a personable, dynamic individual was a good enough politician and campaigner to score an upset and win in normally heavily Democratic Kentucky. But his first energies, it would seem, should be to concentrate on his job in the Senate, where the Republican ranks are mighty thin. How he can be a.

U. S. Senator and still give the GOP its much-needed business-like leadership all year remains to be seen. Senator Morton faces a rough and steep road ahead. The roll of Republican voters throughout the nation is, percentage-wise, at ils lowest point in nearly sixty years, Its losses have been principally in the North and West, where the traditional alliance between industrial states and the farm belt has been badly weakened.

However, the party is far from dead if it follows its basic principles of progressiveness and conservative common sense. If Senator Morton can take the lead and build a strong and active organization throughout the nation, doubl- lesi the GOP will become very much alive.

MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q. My wedding is to be a very small one and. doesn't warrant the mailing of engraved invitations. How should I word the short notes of invitation to those friends I should like to attend? A. These notes may be worded exactly as the engraved type of invitations are.

Q. When does a woman remove her gloves at a enter- Ing the room or just before being served? A. She removes one or both of her gloves when she is served, although she may do this sooner if she wishes. Q. If a girl invites a boy to a dance at her school, is it proper for her to send him a boutonniere? A.

This would depend upon the custom in that particular community. Generally, it is not done. BEAUTY AT HOME By LYNN CARTER Q. What is an easily-made, but effective, beauty mask for the face? A. The white of an egg, painted over face and throat, allowed to remain on for about ten minutes, then removed with warm water.

This proves a cleansing and revitalizing treatment to the complexion. Q. How can I increase the gloss of my rather dull-looking hair? A. I can think of nothing better for adding sparkle and sheen to the hair than good, vigorous brushing every day. Further wonders can be wrought if you make a practice of giving your hair a brisk towel rubbing after every shampoo.

Q. Quite often, after I have plucked my eyebrows, the skin becomes inflamed or swollen. What can I do to avoid this? A. Perhaps your tweezers are not so clean as they could be. Run them under very hot water before using.

Eyebrows will come out easier if the pores have been opened with warm water. Be sure to pluck the hairs out in the direction of their growth. Finally, rubbing some antiseptic lip balm over the eyebrows will help guard against infection. HAPPY BIRTHDAY Birthdays are published in advance of the actual anniversaries.

Crusaders Should Ask Senate First By ROSCOE DRUMMOND WASHINGTON The American Bar Association is getting terrific support for its crusade in behalf of "world peace through law." Its objective is to put some 'Ife and law into the world court and to begin to use it by giving it some business. Not many projects can enlist the backing of President Eisenhower, Prime Minister Harold Macmillan, Chancellor Adenaur, Premier Nehru, President Frondizi of the Argentine, President Garcia of the Philippines, Sir Winston Churchill, John Foster Dulles, and Thomas E.

Dewey. Vice President Nixon is for and so is Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon. Attorney General William Rogers is for it and so is Sen. Hubert Humphrey of Minnesota.

This is, indeed, an impressive endorsement. In' fact it suggests that this move to activate the world court is either exactly the right step at exactly the right time or it is a wistful meaningless gesture which nobody quite has the heart to oppose, I believe it is radiantly right. But there is one great danger. The danger is that as the leaders of this crusade are generating mounting and massive support for the large ideal of putting the world court to work, they will fail to generate adequate support focused sharply on the vital, first step without which the whole thing will falter and fall to pieces. The fact is that unless the Senate repeals or radically amends the "Connally Amendment" 53 Amendment which almost completely nullifies our adherence to the world court the United States is effectively inhibited from doing anything to promote the wider and better use of the court.

This means that unless President Eisenhower and the leaders of both parties, who say they are for strengthening the court, and the leaders of the American Bar Association, who have sparked this whole thing, set about promptly to persuade the Senate to alter the "Connally Amendment," the; will end up with a cargo of idealism and no engine in the ship. Or at least the engine won't work because the "Connally Amendment" disconnects it. Here is what happened: In 1946 the Senate approved our adherence to the court and accepted "compulsory jurisdiction" by a vote of sixty-two to two. Simultaneously, the Senate stipulated that not only would we refuse the court's jurisdiction in "domestic disputes" but also that the U.S. alone would decide what constituted a "domestic dispute." 'Thus by action of the Senate, the U.S.

has simultaneously accepted "compulsory jurisdiction" of the courts and reserved the right to escape jurisdiction of the court any time it wants to say that the issue is "domestic." When' we sought to hail the Soviet Union before the court for damages cause by shooting down an unarmed American plane over the Sea of Japan, Moscow blandly denied the court's jurisdiction on the ground that it was a "domestic matter." The court had to agree on the premise that so long as the U.S. reserved to itself the right to decide when an issue was "domestic," the right must be conceded to all other countries. a The American Bar Association is keenly aware that the Connally Amendment must be changed, or the grand design of its crusade will come to nothing. So far the Eisenhower administration, though avowing its intention to propose changes in Lie Connally Amendment, has put nothing before the Senate. The alert Sen.

Humphrey has introduced a repeal resolution. This whole American Bar Association-world court project is so right so timely, that it ought to hava wide-ranging bi-partisan initiative and it seems to me that the active leadership of the President is DAILY LESSONS IN ENGLISH By W.

YOU'RE TELLING ME By WILLIAM ROT Central Press Writer PROBABLY few diabetics realize this, but the fact is that the disease does appear to hamper the reproductive capacities of both men andi women. Diabetic women, we know, have more stillbirths, oversized fetuses and. neonatal deaths than do non-diabetic women. Less is known about thei diabetic father. However, recent studies of 198 diabetic men attending outpatient clinics at the Philadelphia General Hospital and the hospital of the University of Pennsylvania give us a pretty good indication of the influence of the disease on fatherhood.

Study Indications This study plainly indicates that impotence occurs at an earlier age and to a much wider extent among diabetic men than among those not afflicted with the disease. In fact, most of these 198 men who had diabetes less than one year, were reported to be impotent This does not, of course, mean they 'remained that way. The impotency probably can often be blamed on the poor control of the disease. Once the disease is stabilized, potency often returns. Anxiety Hays Kole Besides, we believe that the anxiety a new diabetic suffers over the disease probably plays an important role in the matter impotency.

In thi.5 particular study, which was reported in the "Physician's Bulletin," the incidence of impotence, as a rule, gradually increased with age from about 25 per cent in the 30 to 34-year- old group to almost 75 per cent in the 60 to 65-year-old bracket. A rather puzzling factor is that, in general, the severity, complications and duration of diabetes does not appear to be related to the incidence of impotency. Incomplete Pregnancies Among the wivea of diabetic rhen In the study, 16.6 per cent of the pregnancies ended in abortion. This is considerably greater than the 10 per cent in the non-diabetic control group. However, no difference was noted between the wives of the diabetic male and the non-diabetic male with respect to premature births, stillbirths, malformations, sex or birth weight of the children.

The principal result of this study, it seems to me, is that we still have a lot to learn about diabetes and its effect on our bodies. QUESTION AND ANSWER J.

"What for?" "To look up a ghost, Handsome." The Kimballsville cemetery was not a large one, but it was a scary one nonetheless. As Bingo and Handsome threaded their way through the tombstones with the assistance of a flashlight, Bingo had the distinct urge to whistle. Instead, he began talking. "You'll remember," he said, "that Mariposa DeLee told us her sister-in-law died in Kimballsville and was buried here. Am I right, Handsome?" "You're right," Handsome said.

"She also said that Charlie Browne was married to this Miss DeLee." "Mmmm," Bingo said. He flashed the light onto a tombstone. "Parker Atchlson," he read. "That's not what we're looking for." He flashed the light onto another tombstone. Then he stepped closer to the, grave.

"I think this Is it," he said. Together, they studied chiseled Inscription: LOIS DELEE 1913-1928 "What I'd like to know," Bingo said, "Is how Lois DeLee managed to get buried in 1928 and then marry Julfen Lattlmer tn 1950."

"It should make interesting listening." spotted the convertible and theft apparently decided to brave it through, "We've been trying to reach you," Bingo said. "I've been out," she answered.

In the soft amber light, she looked younger than she did in natural sunshine. She wore a white sweater and black tapered slacks, and the yellow, light concealed the wrinkles on her face, so that she might have been a young matron. "Find Charlie Browne?" Bingo asked. "No." a shame, 1 Btego said. "There were a few things, Mrs.

DeLee, which we know you won't mind discussing since we're such old friends." "What is it?" she asked. "You said your sister-Jn-law died in Kimballsville a couple of years back. You did say that, didn't you?" "Yes, I did." Nervously Mariposa DeLee lighted a cigarette and blew out a cloud of smoke. "What did you mean by a couple of years back?" "Just what It sounded like." "A couple la usually defined as two," Bingo said. "Now, you didn't mean two years back, did you?" "I meant couple.

Two, three, remembers?" "Her tombstone remembers," Handsome said. "What?" "She died in 1928," Bingo amplified. "Unless you're counting by fifteens, that's not exactly a couple of years ago." "All right, I forgot the date," Mariposa said. "Did you forget her name, too?" "Of course not." "What was her name?" Mariposa paused. "Lois," she said at last.

"Lois what?" Again Mariposa paused. This time the pause assumed rather lengthy proportions. Bingo and Handsome waited. It seemed as if Mariposa not going to answer. "Lois Bingo repeated.

Mariposa maintained her silence. "You said she was married to Charlie Browne, didn't you? You said he took care of her while she was sick. Didn't you say that, Mrs. DeLee?" an swered. She puffed on the cigarette, let out a quick nervous ball land, schoolboys have get a.
