4 The Terre Haute Tribune-Star Sunday, May limi EDITORIALS may disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say "Nth Power Problem There is one momentous and highly relevent question that has not yet been faced by the three great nations involved in nuclear test ban negotiations in Geneva. This is the question of what can be done about the so-called power Britain became the third power to develop nuclear weapons capability, and France became the fourth. But it is all the other potential members of the nuclear club that worry those already on the inside. The trouble is that worrying about the power is not the equivalent of facing it and dealing with it. The most ominous potential addition to the ranks of nations able to make nuclear bombs is Communist China.

Others will almost certaintly acquire this power, however, if events are permitted to take their present course. And it deserves emphasis that the more nations there are having atomic capability, the the greater is the threat to the peace of the world. This is not a concern of the West alone. Even when it comes to Red China possible acquisition of the bomb, the Kremlin has a lively interest in establishing some system of control. The Soviet Union has shown uneasiness about the prospect of having to embrace a nuclear-armed China.

It is not impossible, therefore that the Russians would welcome a move to bring both France and Communist China into the wavering Geneva talks on a test ban. Unless they are brought in. no tri-partite agreement is likely to be effective in controlling their nuclear tests. The United States, Britain and the Soviet Union have this in common, that they will continue to evade the power at their mutual peril. The "Moral Fruitage" The increasing manifestations of religious interest in the United States during the past decade or so are a matter of record.

Judged by outward indexes such as church membership and attendance, religious giving, church building programs and the like, this heightened interest is substantial. From time to time, however, misgivings about the depth and significance of this religious interest have been expressed by thoughtful men. Questions as to the true meaning that should be attached to the U. S. religious have been asked by persons whose skepticism is all the more searching because they so deeply want the revival to be genuine.

The most one of the most disturbing of misgivings emerged from the General Assembly of the United Presbyterian church. A report made to this body sums up its indictment as follows: to in our day has produced no corresponding moral fruitage. On the contrary, while the curve of religious interest has been rising, that of moral health has been The truth of that cannot be denied; the evidence is too overwhelming. The question is not whether there has been a moral decline in this country, but to what extent it may have infected our society. The study cited above finds and disease in the moral life of the The seriousnes and spread of these ailments is the legitimate concern of all Americans, if our rising preoccupation with religion bears poor moral something is deeply wrong.

Limits on TV Villainy Pity the poor television script writer. The field from which he may draw villains for his plots narrows dav by day. Certain ethnic groups have asked writers to cease identifying their people as gunmen or gangsters in cops and lobbers orama. Now the Army is complaining about unsympathetic portrayal of soldiers in Westerns. According to the Army assistant chief historian, both enlisted men and officers have been lately portrayed as renegades and scoundrels.

This, the historian says, is unfair and tends to stigmatize the entire Army. Unfair it may be. Whether depicting soldiers as something less than heroic figures would really do much harm to the image of the Army is another matter. Just because Major Soandso gets drunk and shoots down an Indian bystander during a fracas, the public is not going to be persuaded that all officers are bad men who take potshots at innocent victims. Surely those who worry over possible identification with TV villains have too low a regard for audience intelligence and too high an estimate of influence.

It would be a pity to see any further narrowing down of the field for villainy. If the trend continues, there'll soon be nothing left but the Russians. And a succession of named Boris would become mighty boring. Backyard Escoffiers Maybe a psychologist ought to be turned loose on the possible relationship between and the elaborate backyard culinary endeavor that goes on these weekends. There may be no connection, but we have a hunch that there is.

For some years, now, food processors have been knocking themselves out to make meal preparation easier and easier. Half the work that used to be done in the kitchen at home is now done before the food ever gets to the grocery shelves. But what of the wage earner, the old lord and master himself? No longer is it his prerogative to lounge on weekends (between bouts at lawn mowing and the like, of course) while the good wrife prepares the viands. He is expected to turn out meals on his patio grill, the more complicated the better. Hamburgers and hot dogs used to be the limit, but those days are gone; everything must be marinated and no shortcuts, either.

If this exercise in culinary complexity has no connection with the rise of pre-packaged foods, we'll eat our mustard. The POWER of FAITH "By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have one to another Southern ladies inspired Memorial Day when they strewed flowers on the graves of both Union and Confederate dead in 1863, easing the bitterness of the Civil War. Northerners ot first glorified Union victory, but their hearts mellowed: "The thought could not but come to us that there were graves lying southward above which bent a grief as tender and sacred as our own. Invisibly we dropped unseen flowers upon these mounds, said Thomas Aldrich. The ceremonies at Gettysburg became a celebration of unity: The Union has become not merely a physical union of States," Herbert Hoover once said, but rather a spiritual union in common ideals of our people." Franklin D.

Roosevelt said, was an inspired prophet of the South who said: 'My brethren, if we know one another, we will love one another' We ore all brothers now in a new understanding." Eisenhower Ancestor Buried at Prairie By DOROTHY J. CLARK Probably the oldest cemetery in Vermillion County is located on Prairie at the northeast corner of the intersection of the Overpeck road and State road 63 about two and one-half miles north of Cl nton. Buried here is a Mrs. McElwane, daughter of one of the Ayes, who came from Ohio with the Helt family. Jacob Aye was the father-in-law of Michael Helt.

Erosion by the elements have dimmed the names and dates inscribed on this tombstone but the year of death is 1817. This further substantiates the belief that the Helts built their first log cabins on the prairie in 1816 and returned for settlement in 1817. It is unlikely that have trans ported a dead body over land for burial, so it seems probable that the McElwane woman died on the prairie. There are other graves here dated as early as 1821. The first burial in Prairie cemetery that can be confirmed is that of William Houghland in 1819.

The general condition of this stone clearly indicates to some that it is an older stone than the one dated 1819 recording the Houghland death. Apparently the attempt to establish a graveyard just north of Don Overpecks failed, because most of the settlers used what is now the Prairie Cemetery as their burying place. As early as 1845 there was a Coffin Factory established where the little town of Toronto was founded in 1848 by the Jenks, Macks, Puffer, Tillotson and Aikman families. Supposedly there was a Presbyterian Manse built in Toronto in 1840 at the present site of the Roscoe Martin home, but there is little history available of Toronto prior to 1850.

Located Near Clinton. Very few people know that a simple little monument in the beautiful old Prairie Cemetery located a few miles northwest of Clinton marks the grave of the great-grandmother of former President of the United States Dwight D. Eisenhower. tb.e man cross grandson of the above mentioned the Blue Ridge Mountains and pioneer, Julius Dugger, came to Indiana with his half brothers, William and David, and his sister, Mrs. James Morgan, where they began mining operations in the area of Dugger, Indiana, to which the family gave its name.

He recruited settlers in Switzerland and the Palatinate. A contingent was on its way but time was short as the deadline approached.

Whether guilty or not, he was accused of giving his animals names as colonists to fill his required quota. hen Jacob Stover died, around 1730, his land reverted to the crown, but his son, Jacob Stover along with several other pioneers including Daniel Boone, Jean Xaxier and Julius Dugger, moved on to the frontiers of North Carolina.

Formerly, I had figured that my only chance of riding in one of these would be the day I led a funeral procession. My family is cheap, and I could end up in a two-toned Volkswagen.

However, I rode in Billy Rolls-Royce one evening and I was surprised to find that it has only four wheels, one engine, and a chauffeur, all of which are silent. There are some rare pan- elled woods inside but, as I could not eat them, they received scant attention from me. Also, the lighter worked. The Rolls has always been the class car. It get you there any faster than a Ford or a Chev rolet; it just makes you more con- scious of the poor people while riding.

It is possible that the owner of a buggy like this would need a couple of hundred to repair a scratch. A few days ago, I was thumbing through a New Yorker and I saw an advertisement by Rolls- Royce and glad I read it because now I know what missing, and will continue to miss i forever. The one depicted was called Rolls-Royce Silver Club II Custom Built Price, Too. The ad says: Rolls- Royce is the outcome of fifty- i seven years of In my case, they can go back and deliberate for another fifty-seven years. It is probably the i finest custom-built car, but it had aN gorgeous custom-built price, too.

For that money, I know where I can get a pretty good house with no wheels. the roof the ad says. is made of West of England cloth. The nap of this fabric is raised by rubbing with teazles, a thistle-like flower grown in Well, now. never had my roof rubbed with teazles, and I know a teazle if it walked up and bit me.

Still, how often do I look at my car roof to see if the nap is raised? radiator shell is handmade of stainless steel. Every I get imperceptibly How many Olds can say that? In itself, not moved because even if I owned a Rolls I would not stand around trying to see the imperceptible cunes in any radiator, even if its name was Jayne Mansfield. chassis frame is made of hollow steel members welded together so the copy says, air is pumped out and the main frame becomes a sealed vacuum. Thus no moisture can accumulate within the frame to cause 100,006 Slammings. The doors of the Rolls are tested for 100,000 slammings.

This sounds great, provided that, after all that work, I slam it the time and have it come off in my hand. The Rolls is then given a during which it is pelted by water and air at gale force.

You know what these Rolls men listen for? sing, moan, groan and Well, I have a white Olds convertible and I can hear all of these things without starting the engine.

All I have to do is stand and look at it and it titters, sings, moans, groans and booms. It booms a little better, I will admit, when I hit something, but I afford that every day. Three Braking Systems. The Rolls has three braking systems and two fuel pumps. sense of security is remarkable.

Many owners, the ad reminds you, feel that the Rolls is in the flush of youth after 50.000 miles. True. If I am going to lay out that kind of tea. it had better look awfully young after 500.000 mitas.

And, of course, they make the point that only an expert can tell whether your Rolls-Royce was bought yesterday or five years ago. Perhaps. My neighbors could tell you to the day. They could also tell you how many payments are in arrears. They nosy afflicted with good memories for the wrong things.
