And despite President Eisenhower's expressed belief that we should schools what we have been doing for roads and do for hospitals, today we find his own Secretary for conferences Education on -Mrs.

Oveta Hobby--asking for more with states and for another national one in education the nation's capital. We agree with Senator Lister Hill of Alabama that have already been enough conferences on this imthere now "It is now time portant action, not talk." And hopefully it looks like the and Senate will overrule Mrs. Hobby and authorize the federal aid without which the school situation is due to get worse as the school population is not likely to remain static waiting for another twenty years of conferences. READYING FOR THE SOFTBALL SEASON In its decision to reduce the price of admissions to the softball games and to have but two instead of three games each evening, we believe the city Recreation Commission will gain in two ways: Bigger attendance will result, for, after all, 15 cents is easier to come by than is twenty-five; and the bigger the crowds the more rooters there will be to inspire the players and add zest to the competition. Also the decision to award trophies to local winners should inspire every player to give to his team the very best that is in him.

Softball has become one of the favorite summer recreational diversions of our community and it is good to see that the Recreational Commission is adjusting its policies to permit its wider enjoyment and give fresh inspiration to the teams. UNCLE SAM REMOVES DETOUR SIGNS Washington has announced that the ocean area in which the hydrogen bomb experiments have been conducted by our Defense Department and AEC will soon be reopened to normal air and sea a traffic. We venture that here is an area where there will be no traffic jams in a very near future. The traffic that was detoured from the region, when we began our deadly experiments, most likely will continue to use the detours for many weeks, perhaps months, to come, even though Uncle Sam has concluded his experiments for the present. Those experiments, we are assured.

"contributed materially to the security of the United States and the free world." SHOULD WE SELL REVOLUTION? In a recent address Admiral Robert B. Carney, Chief of Naval Operations, put this question: "Why can't we (Americans) be the salesmen of human revolt, which demonstratively has produced freedom of the individual and standards of life heretofore unknown?" But even as the Admiral asked that question several major governments of the world, including our own, were striving to find some way to put down a revolt in Indochina. And reports from India indicate that French and Portuguese colonial powers (our partners in NATO) are threatento use force to put down "revolts" by natives seeking freedom. As far as we know there is nothing to prevent our selling "human revolt" among the satellites or in any land where Communism threatens only it is more or less an American tenet that the salesman must stand back of his wares. Are we willing to guarantee that revolt will secure for the people, to whom we sell the idea, the things they want the most precious of which is liberty? Are we ready to say to them: Turn against the tyrants who hold domination over you and you may depend upon America making good her guarantee that your revolution will pay off in the same things ours did.

(But unfortunately some of these we would prompt to revolt might point to what happens to some in our land who are found so much as harboring a revolutionary idea.) Sentiment- -Old and New Things Worth While Picked Up Along the Way. Some From Pens Long Ago Laid Down. Some From Pens of Later Days. TOYS An old yarn ball that is blue and red, And a rattle without the stem, And a whistling bear with a swivel head, That smiles and smiles at them. Slaves are they all, for they have no choice But to do the strange commands Of a tottering tow-head angel's voice And two little tousling hands.

And woe to them if they to heed A word or a sign they know, For the angel ire swift, indeed, And the angel hands can throw. And yet, whenever the day is done, Rattle and ball and bear Are put to bed by the angel-one In the arms of her own high chair. Then the queen is bound and the slaves go free And lost the power of caste. For the same old Sand man takes the three And the two-headed angel last. -Earl Williams.

My Day By Eleanor Roosevelt Train Gives Best View of New York's Scenic Hudson NEW YORK Last weekend took the train to Hyde Park with my friend, Miss Adelaide Enright, who is here from St. Paul, Minn. It was a long time since I had gone up by train and, of course, when one really wants to enjoy the Hudson River the train the only way that gives you a good view. The Parkway is beautiful, but you never catch a glimpse of the river. Even route 9W does not give you too many river views, SO the train is the way to ride up the river if you want to get the full beauty of this great river and it is truly a great river.

In spots it reminds me of the Rhine, except that the Rhine seems smaller. I could not help thinking that we admire scenery all over the world and often forget that we have right at home some of the most beautiful scenery. Once arrived, we took the dogs for a walk in the woods and enjoyed finding a profusion of violets and a few trilliums. The white trilliums I looked for seem to have disappeared again. I missed looking for them the previous weekend and perhaps they have already bloomed and faded.

For the first time two little pink dogwoods are flowering on the lawn and the white dogwood, which is an old tree outside my bedroom windows, is more beautiful than I have ever seen it. It's heavy with bloom. I found on, my table when I returned last week a very delightful booklet written by Col. William A. Eddy and published by the American Friends of the Middle East, Inc.

The booklet is titled, D. R. Meets Ibn This account is delightfully written and completely accurate. My husband came back full of interest in the whole meeting and with great admiration for King Ibn one Saud. place But that Colonel he was Eddy surprised says in hear that my husband said he was disappointed in his interview.

I think I can clear that point up. It was not the meeting nor the personal feeling he had for the king that was a disappointment. It was something else, which I heard him speak of several times. He had hoped that from this meeting there could come an understanding with the king which would make for a pleasanter atmosphere surrounding the small, new state of Israel. My husband felt that there was so much land in that area, and that the promise of a homeland had been made to the Jews who settled in Israel.

He hoped that by peaceful means a settlement could be arranged which would not create bad feeling between peoples that had side by side in harmony. He was disappointed that, just as Colonel Eddy reports, King Ibn Saud made no concessions as regards Israel. Cedaredge Residents Ask School Survey CEDAREDGE The board of education of Delta County Joint School District 50 was requested to make a survey of school facilities in the district by over 100 Cedaredge residents at a special community meeting held here Monday. Cedaredge residents, who are concerned over lack of classroom space at Cedaredge, asked that immediate action be taken by the board on a survey of the district's school facilities and that the report be made available to the citizens of the district. The board was also requested to take the necessary steps to get North-Central Association accreditation for Cedaredge High School and to retain state accreditation.

Uranium Ore Mill Contract Renewed Sheldon P. Wimpfen, manager of the Atomic Energy Commission operations office in Grand Junction, today announced that a contract with Vitro Uranium Co. for operation of uranium ore processing at Salt Lake City has been "renewed for five years. The Salt Lake City mill is one of seven producing concentrates from uranium ores for the AEC. The original Vitro contract was signed in 1951.

New terms in the contract fit changes in the urandum industry, Mr. Wimpfen said. Details of the contract are classifed information, the official said. Delta Attorney Only Slightly Hurt in Accident DELTA Felix L.

More Talks Set On Air Service At Moab Today MOAB Further consideration for the establishing of air service at Moab will be given Thursday when officials of Frontier Airlines visit this area, it was reported Tuesday night by C. S. Thomson, president of Grand County Chamber of Commerce. Surveys by the company have already been made, and officers of Frontier have indicated their belief that Moab could well fit into their flying schedule.

The present plan, as proposed by Frontier would place Moab as the Western end of what is now known as the Grand Junction-Denver flight. by Since a lay-over of over one hour the plane and crew used on this flight is necessary each day at Grand Junction, the time needed to make the trip on to Moab would not necessitate any change in the now established schedule, these officials indicated. Some obstacles must be overcome before the service can be made, however. The landing strip will have to be lengthened by about 1,600 feet. Landing lights and office space will also have to be provided.

Business conducted at the meeting of the Chamber of Commerce, Tuesday night, also, included the appointment of a new secretarymanager to replace Robert Sundwall who had previously resigned. The new secretary is Frank Kroesen, who will begin his duties the first of next week. Plans were also made the establishment of which an office for the organization temporarily will be in the Moab Garage Company building.

The Council gave tentative approval to a suggestion by Councilman C.

E. McCormick that the city "squeeze, out" money for erection of hangars at Walker Field. Council President C. A. Walt said he could "see" about $25,000 to $30,000 for the new buildings.

Other councilmen agreed. Mr. McCormick said he would have a definite plan ready for the Council at its next meeting. He said the city could charge about $25 to $30 rent for the individaul T-hangars, which a cost about $2,000 each. The Council also decided to buy a new range and a new water heater for Lincoln Park Auditorium.

A letter from Mrs. Walter E. Dalby, president of the Band and Orchestra Parents Club, "spurred the action. She proposed the city pay $277 for installation of a gas line to the building. The club, with the help of other service clubs, then would pay $534 for a gas range and heater to replace the present coal-burners.

Councilman John Harper, after a 20-minute discussion on the problem, moved that City Manager D. Toyne arrange for the city to buy the equipment and to put in the gas "and to increase the rent to partly compensate for the cost. Agreeing that it would be confusing to have private property inside city property, the Council passed the motion with only Mr. McCormick voting "no."

Hall DREW PEARSON SAYS: PENTAGON PREPARES BUDGET FOR WAR; SOUTH AMERICAN JUNGLE'S ARE VITAL THAN ASIATIC JUNGLES: IKE NOW HAS SECRETARY TO CORRELATE CABINET. WASHINGTON-The Defense Department is drawing up a budget for war in Indochina. Pentagon planners privately figure that the "New Look" is now mere peak through the keyhole. The military budget will be upped at least $5,000,000,000 gardless of war in Indochina. Senator Knowland, the GOP majority leader, has given the White House light on Congressional operation Indochina Republicans are confident the Democrats will along.

If war does come will be a nasty engagement in jungled "Green Hell" where American troops are not used fighting. against who can disappear into then jungle nowhere. against people who have learned through the years hate the so-called white conqueror. These jungles produce tropical products necessary modern civilization. However, similar jungles much nearer home and controlled by friendlier people can produce the same products.

So this might be time to go back to cultivating our friends in Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia and their tropical products rather than getting bogged down in the jungles of Southeast Asia. It's a vitally important crossroad and should be pondered carefully. Ike's Cabinet Secretary Margaret Truman thinks her old man was a great president but bum hotel clerk.

He is Max Rabb, Assistant to Sherman Adams, and his job is to correlate cabinet information and ride herd on cabinet oficers.

The job was set up when Ike got unhappy over conflicting statements by Charlie Wilson and Dulles over Indochina, crossed wires by Secretary of Commerce Weeks and Secretary of Labor Mitchell. Such conflicts have been a headache for every recent president. FDR used to take Harry Hopkins and Harold Ickes on his yacht to iron out their battles. Truman used to assume the faux pas of his own wayward cabineteers. Ike, who likes a smooth-running general staff, doesn't relish differences in his cabinet, so the new secretary of the cabinet has the job of ironing them out.

In England, the cabinet secretary is one of the most important men in the government, gets a salary as high as any cabinet member. Dirksen's Star Watch for Ev Dirksen, the solon from Illinois, to emerge as rival to Bill Knowland as Republican leader of the Senate. With the alling Colonel MoCormick becoming less and less a factor in Illinois politics, Dirksen is shifting away from McCormick's isolation, and would like to snuggle closer to Eisenhower. Ike entrusted Ev with trying to shush up the Army-McCarthy row after Eisenhower himself failed in getting Army Secretary Stevens compromise. Stevens got brainwashed once by four Republican horseman of the McCarthy committee and isn't going to get caught in one of their compromises again.

On the day Stevens lunched with the senate horsemen and agreed temporarily to compromise the Army's position, Judge Albert Cohn, father of the precocious Roy, told friends. "It's all going to be over by noon. Stevens is going to be rolled at lunchtime and the whole investigation will be dropped." Stevens was rolled, and did agree to the McCarthy position- -that one time. But never again. Will Joe Be Benched? Many Democrats and labor Crossword Puzzle ACROSS 1.

Farmers and rural Republicans have rolled up most of the signatures in the McCarthy recall petition, with little help because the Democrats consider McCarthy a Republican problem. Or it may be because the population around Milwaukee, which makes up the backbone of the Democratic party, is pro-McCarthy. That was where Joe got surprisingly big vote during his primary race. Catholic Democrats crossed over and voted Republican. The big Catholic vote is one reason GOP leaders, respon1 sible for winning a GOP Congress, are not at all happy about the White House idea of benching McCarthy in the coming campaign.

Congressman Dick Simpson of Pennsylvania, chairman of the Committee for Re-electing a Republican Congress, says there is about 15 per cent of the voters in certain districts which McCarcan carry for the GOP- if he makes a speech. Hitherto the Catholic vote has been preponderantly Democratic. McCarthy, they think, can swing it, GOP.

He that labors for selfish gold Soon grows old. Taking and keeping are duties stern, Sapping the strength of us day by day; Fiercely the fires of our ardor burn, Eating our glorious youth away. He that fights for a selfish prize Soonest dies. Having, and holding exhaust us Deeply stamped are their lines care. Ceaselessly for our strength they call, Stripping our souls of their garments fair.

He that battles for self-renown Soon breaks down. Giving and lending are joyous tasks, Keeping us youthful and blithe and strong. Kindness but little of courage asks And its days are fair and its life is long. Not he that gains, but he that gives lives. (Copyright.
