BEATRICE BAILY SUN -Beatrice, Sunday, Jitne 24, 1945 a Industry Dismembered Economist W-Mild Encourage German Thrift And Science, However. TO PREVENT WAR By J. M. Roberts, jr. A want to discourage German thrift and science but I want to keep it from being geared to a war machine again." These words from Bernard Baruch come pretty close to summing -up the general view of those -Who would steer a course between the extremes of dismemberment and complete industrial destruction and any attempt to rehabilitate the Reich by turning it over to "good Germans." Baruch would dismember German industry.

To those who fear the effect of such a move on European economy he says in effect that the German share of Europe's export business can be GEN.

And that. presumably, at not too high a level. It seems obvious that Germany is going to be occupied for years. There is no sign of any revival from within. For a long time, then.

Europe's economic interests are going to in more or less of a pool. It would seem of little moment, whether the industries are located in Germany or to the west or east. For years all German production has "been devoted to war and her own immediate needs. What little she has exported has been to near- "General Dwight D. Eisenhower is a man of the people who talks with a crowd, rather than to according to P.

O. Staehs of Beatrice whose business took him near Abilene Thursday and gave him the opportunity to view the homecoming celebration for the famous general. The eyes of the whole nation were turned upon, the small by subjugated or coerced countries Kansas community and residents in grudging return for essential war imports Doesn't Mean Slavery For even longer Germany has produced approximately 90 percent of her own food. With the expected breaking up of large estates, particularly the Junker lands, and by application of some of the man- power which has gone into Indus-. try, she could produce it all.

I This remains true, even if several million men are assigned to reconstruction projects in other countries. What she did during the war (during which the western Allies, alone encountered more than 10,000,000 men in the armed forces Who were not participating in! production) is sufficient evidence of that. This need not mean that Germany is to be held in slavery. Only that she shall be quarantined, then fumigated by such educational means as fit the case, and finally readmitted to society if and when she fully adopts the idea that a decent existence alongside her neighbors is better than constant, fruitless struggle for hegemony. TUMBLED FROM MOTORBIKE John Forden, Lincoln, formerly of Gage county, was riding to Beatrice yeserday on a motorbike, accompanied by his daughter.

Somehow the machine upset, went into the ditch. Forden got a broken wrist and cuts about the head. He was hospitalized until last evening when he returned home. who had been absent from Abilene for over 20 years returned to say "hello" to "Ike." an observer told Staehs. One of the most amazing things to Staehs was the ease and organization with which the immense crowd was handled.

The normal population of Abilene, 6,000, was swollen to 35,000, but due to the efficiency of Ft. Riley troops and local businessmen the day's program was carried out to perfection and order was maintained. Chatted With Friends The Staeh's family arrived in Abilene too late to see anything but the end of the hour long parade, but from what they saw it was evident that the merchants were displaying their local products with pride. Floats were piled high with garden produce and later in his speech Eisenhower commented, "that after reviewing the parade, it appeared New York was a suburb of Abilene, and his home town could easily feed all the people of that city." the changes which had occurred in his absence. Significant to Staehs was the part of the general's speech in which he pleaded to not be regarded as "our- hero." but asked honors for the individual soldier, who was a hero.

i House Well Guarded Eisenhower spent Wednesday evening chatting in the local park with people who wished to come and see him. In his free moments he strolled about waving to stranger. After the program on Thursday the crowd was reluctant to give up the general, but he was finally able to escape to the Eisenhower family home for a few hours of rest and relaxation with his ABILENE.

Eisenhower, his triumphant homecoming welcome officially ended, returns to Washington Monday to confer with Secretary of War Stimson. and after that will take a brief holiday in an undisclosed place before resuming his duties in Europe. "I'm not going to tell anyone where I am going," the genera! said at a press conference following Abilene's celebration of his return. "I'm just going to rest. Believe me, I've been through a lot." But about one thing.

General Eisenhower was emphatic. He is not interested in going into politics. In reply to a question about whether he might become secretary of state. Eisenhower said: "I 'Want Nothing Else" "Look, I'm in the federal service and I take the orders of my commander in chief. All I want is to be a citizen of the United States, and when the War Depart-! rnent turns me out to pasture I that's all I want to be.

I want! nothing else." Eisenhower replied simply that he wants "nothing" in answer to reminder that President Tru- had said he could have any- Invasion May Force Hirohito To Take Helm Emperor Tells People Crisis Now Is Unprecedented In Japan's History.

Nothing seemed to phase the veterans of over 1,022 combat hours, and they answered all questions patiently, it was only about themselves that they remained silent.

Attracts Little Boys It was a field day for the kids, everything had to be examined, sometimes a little fearfully, and the larger guns, like the Bazooka and 30 caliber Machineguns, were respectfully admired from a distance. The smaller boys were swallowed up by the large combat helmets, when they wondered if they were "as heavy as they looked." Other older boys yelled themselves hoarse tFylng to make connection with each other over the walkie-talkies set up for use. The soldier's personal equipment was carefully examined and the field glasses set for younger eyes than those of combat men. One little boy asked a hardened Sgt. veteran of many pacific engagements, "if he'd ever been'shot at," the soldier smiled and said nothing.
