And such a hazard might Starting in the office as a deputy easily enough present itself in this In 1936, Grundmeier was first elected auditor in 1940. He hap held the post continuously since his first election, with the exception of the time he served in the Armed Forres during World War n.

This outstanding record of public gen-ice not only presents an opportunity to pay high tribute to Mr. Grundmeier and wish him well in his new post, a well deserved promotion, but it also again brings to mind the fact Carroll county has been extremely fortunate over the years in consistently having men and women in charge of all the courthouse offices. Not too large a segment of the citizenry has occasion to visit one or more of the courthouse offices more than once or twice a year for paying taxes or buying some kind of a license. And many times that business is completed by mail. There are probably several residents oi Carroll county who have yet to set: jears foot inside all the courthouse offices.

So their operation is taken as a matter of course by many. But they are all conducted in a county in any biennial election. Proposals to extend the terms of i county officials to four years have i been presented to tie Iowa Gen' eral Assembly in the past, but little if any serious action has ever I bepn taken. Four-year terms for county officials, with some being elected every two years in order that no courthouse would ever be entirely devoid of experienced hands, contains great merit. That Carroll county has been privileged to benefit, from the sen-ice of Harold Grundmeier as County Auditor since 1940 well illustrates the I soundness of getting a good offi- cial and holding to him.

year terms would reduce by half the risk of losing experienced and satisfactory officials. By the same token, when changes were made, the public positions would appear much more attractive to qualified candidates were the terms four The Manly Art of Self-Destruction Thoughts Crow's Nest By J.

GILMORE NEA Staff Correspondents WASHINGTON (NEA) -Now Is the time when they start play- ir.v musical offices up on Capitol Kill.

With Congress hack in session, the scramble for bigger and bettor offices ie off to a fast start. This year seven choice suites in the Senate Office Building will be vacated due to resignations and election defeats. That's all you need to set off a chain reaction of seniority-swapping. For example. Senators Albert Gore (D-Tennl and Ralph Flanders ('R-Vt) will take over the four-room suites of former Senators Walter George (D-Ga) and Eugene Mtllikin (R-Colo).

Then the left empty by I Gore and Flanders will quickly be filled by solons next to them in rank. It's all figured on the basis of a complicated seniority system. By the time this senatorial shuffle is over, more than 30 senators will have moved to new quarters. Sen. Richard Neuberger by the way.

Andrew Frommelt was one of the.contend­ ers for the open hearings so that the people would know how their legislator reacted to various problems. Now comes the Democratic caucus and Frommelt is one of the contenders for a closed session; doesn't want reporters around to report how this and that was who said this and who said that. A caucus, Frommelt contends, is somewhat of a private party and of no public concern. Hence, it should be a closed session.

But they don't exactly agree on how. The result Is more confusion. President Eisenhower and See- retary of State Dulles are vague on how to carry out the plan they've offered. Former President Truman backs them and then adds a tough idea of his own. Yet former Seerejtary of State Dean Acheson, who helped Truman form his foreign policies, seems in disagreement with Eisenhower and Truman on a basic point and most certainly is in disagreement with Dulles.

The problem shared by the United States and Russia, each of whom wants to keep the Middle to win friends and influence people there. Sometimes lost sight of In the present wide dehate on American policy in the Middle East is what the people who live there think of it and whether they want it and, above all, what the Russians think. Ike's Proposal Eisenhower proposes using American armed forces to stop any aggression in the area by a communist or communist-inspired government against a noncommu- nisi state, if the latter asks for the help. In addition, he wants to give nations In the area both arms and economic aid. Truman backs this, even though Eisenhower and Dulles have been utterly foggy on how they'll distribute the arms or the aid.

But Truman goes them one better: He says he'd forbid Russia to ship arms to any nation in the area. He seems to forget the Russians and the Arab countries are tance between the tip of King independent states who like to think they can buy and sell where they please.

VmikiL Wives Must Adapt or Fail In Ever-Changing Marriage If a marriage grows dull after 10 or 15 years, It is usually the woman's fault. Hold your brickbats, ladies. Let me explain. That statement doesn't mean that a woman doesn't work hard to make a comfortable home or do the best job she can to bring up the children.

It doesn't even mean that she grows to love her husband Jess or quits yearning for the early days of marriage when they were close and Ufa together was an adventure, But a marriage la an ever- changing relationship. Being a good housekeeper, a good mother and a devoted wife aren't enough to keep a marriage growing instead of growing stale. Instead of yearning for the old days, blaming her liusband for being disinterested or dull or pitying herself because her life scorns to hold so little fun, a wife has to keep making things happen, A Wife's Duties Are Diverse hobbies and outside interests, She has to get away from home enough to be able to bring some fresh ideas Into it. She has to nourish 'friendships and create some kind of social life for the family. In short, she has to be the one who keeps enlarging the couple's circle of Interests and enthusiasm and friends, A couple can live to themselves during the early days of marriage and find nothing lacking to make them completely happy.

But that idyllic state of affairs can't go on indefinitely. The shut-inness grows stale. The wonder of being together becomes routine. And it is no use longing for the days when just being together was enough. After a few years of marriage the relationship has to keop being enriched and enlivened by other people and other interests and new goalB.

Ike Could Decide In such a situation, Dulles went on, Risenhower would, decide whether to make an all-out attack on the Soviet Union. This policy at least would call for waiting for Red attack before Americans started to shoot. But Truman's warning to Russia not to sell arms in the area would call for a showdown before any shooting and, if Russia asserted its sovereignty by selling arms, it would probably lead to World War m. Acheson, testifying before Truman's statement appeared, recoiled even from Dulles stand and said It appears "perilously like-another approach to the brink." This was a sarcastic reference to a statement by Dulles last year in Life magazine that the war of statemanshlp was to get to the brink of war without falling in.
