Prayer is the gate of heaven, or key to let us in to Rev. T. Brooks. Contribute to Cancer Crusade and Strike Back! Last year some 210.000 families lost a father, a mother, or a child to cancer. Of these more than 100,000 were in the prime of life, between the ages of 30 and 65.

They were stricken when their families, their work and their commu-i mties needed them most. Those who have lost a dear one, know cancer as a ter rible threat. They know that the disease reaches beyond) tne patient to iamiiy and loved ones ail of whom must snare a serious burden. Happily, there is a brighter side. Physicians can now cure half of those who develop cancer if the disease is diagnosed early and treated promptly.

Today, however, only about one in four, who have the disease, are being saved. We as individuals have a great responsibility: we can strike back at cancer through spreading life-saving facts and through contributing to the Cancer Crusade. Lives will be saved in our country, our state, our community, and perhaps in our own families. Nehru 'Abhore' Communism But Fails to Grasp Democracy Prime Minister Nehru of India, who spent a good part of 1950 behaving as if communism and democracy were either both bad or both good, at last has given some public evidence In an interview with Robert Trumbull of the New York Times, the Indian leader made it clear that he abhors Red expansionism and the suppression of human liberties by the governments in many lanos. The international Red movement, he said, flaerantlv vio lates the basic principles of his own personal creed.

He doesn want to see communism in India nor does he approve of it personal reaction is that the Communist Party is completely unacrutmlous told his "Tf re lieves in achieving results by any means, whatever they may be." Nehru intended this statement as an answer to those who reei ne nas up to now snown greater concern over a fading western colonialism in Asia than he has over the spread of evil communism. As a declaration of basic attitude, what he said indeed welcome in the West. Nehru may well contend he has felt this way all along; western leaders could only reply that he has a strange way of showing it. How could he argue for yielding to Communist blackmail pnony peace aeais anectmg Korea and other parts of Asia? How could he propose compromising with evil? Quite accidently, he hinted at one possible explanation his interview with Trumbull. Discussing new truce efforts with the Reds over Korea, he said: "A cease-fire or a truce is always a good thing in itself." The key words here are "in itself." What he said in effect was that an absence of shooting is always desirable, no matter what the price.

He defines peace as "non-violence," whereas the postwar years have taught us all that war can be fought by many methods short of gunfire. To the extent Nehru still holds to this notion, he is still a tragically naive figure. He is unable to grasp the full and terrible meaning of communism, despite his professions of abhorrence for it. For in the Communist truce and negotiation are not steps to peace. They are merely different tactics in an unending war fought on all fronts.

Nehru's latest comment is interesting on another point. Like many others, he seeks to distinguish between "pure" Marxist communism and the "corrupted" version practiced the world their puppets agents throughout rUrJrS words' that a Communist state directed by high-minded idealists might be no menace at all Others argue, though, that the interna compulsions of communism inevitably spill over national borders and make for a ruthless imperialism. academic, since the Russian vari-tl Iikely t0 much of the next thTt New; Is in revealing once again KJSS? to alternatives to mZrtly impressed with the values of de- be due t0 background however, to the rw fn Ti ita failure not only to sell democ-S'" to economic conditions under which it might grow and flourish.

Westbroolc Pegler Gea. Ludtw Clay Waa Drhrm From Defense Poat by Labor (Copyright. 1ML Slag Featarse iyadJoaU. lac.) Gen. Lucius D.

Clay has been driven out of the office of defense mobilization by a group of lawless, lrratvoaalblt union coons who profess to represent "labor," although they have no credentials from the sixty million citizens who constitute the true body of American labor. Gtn. Clay, a man of experience and competence, would have been invaluable In reconciling the needs of military and civilian mauatry ana apportioning production between them. The union bosses have an unblemished record of obstruction of production and wanton exploitation of the suffering and necessity of our lorces ana our civilians. Tne result or tntir interference has been loss of life, efficiency, time and money in World War and in the Korean war to date these bosses, who have been trying to1 ply both military and civilian needs with fewer people to do it.

Inflation can destroy our freedom and our material and spiritual well-being. The basic cause of rising prices is creating, ana leaving in people's hands, more money than uiere are goods to match. Fur ther inflation can be prevented only by keeping extra money, not matched by consumer goods, rrom being available for spending. The objective of: mobilization is to prepare against defeat in battle and to keep from getting licked at home oy ourselves through inflation.

The objectives of the union officials are completely opposite and contrary to the mobilisation objectives. In peacetime, union officials do not increase production They resist increase. Now tney are especially interested' in seeing how much they can get paid for not interfering. With rare exceptions, union officials spend their careers either interfering with production or in collecting money for not interfering. union ornciais welcome war because of the super seller's mar-ket on labor and because of the higher wages which non-interference with production can then command from the public in the xorrn or further political and economic power over workers.

employers, government and the puonc. "war inflation is riven a shortsighted welcome by too many people including too many business men. Too many politicians have liked inflation. But inflation is popular with union officials most of all. The rislne costs gives them a presumed Jus- uucauon ror demanding pay increases to bring wages even with the new inflation, which has been caused by previous raises, along with other bad economic policies.

Union officials eagerly promote the causes of inflation while de crying the resulting- increased prices to their members. Right union official, are advocat ing measures that will promote inflation since it serves their objectives. I-or some time it seemed! obvious that the top union group; in Washington has the one major objective of greatly increasing their power, and not just the eco- nomic power in bargaining for wages, hours and working con-: ditlons but at the level of na-1 tionai political power which brings far greater economic power than can be attained at the local level. Even the conservative elements in national union leadership have joined the power-politics left-wingers to attain collectlvist national political power and bring on the substitution of centralized government direction. The union some without knowine- it.

IS muscle into the present program for their own selfish interests, are still trying to get Charles E. Wilson, the director of mobilization. In this conspiracy they enjoy the guilty cooperation of crooked journalists of the corrupt Washington corps who are, in fact, faithless propagandists of the Marxian program which the unions are: trying to impose on this republic. Confused by newspapers which, with conscious guilt, spread the fiction that the unioneers are "leaders and "spokesmen" of "labor," the public was unable to rally behind Gen. Clay and frustraU this coup.

The same causes may permit the elimination of Mr. Wilson. A man of high authority has authorized a document which, by strong implication, exhorts President Truman to end the reign of the ugly, thieving brutes who slugged and shot their way to power, pillaged great factories, conspired with traitorous Communists, exploited the terrible national crisis of World War II and made the greatest single contribution to the inflation of today This challenge to the boss goons of the terror is much too long to be summarized in one instalment of these dispatches continue the publication tomorrow. In both pieces I will telescope the language without tampering Wjth the epochal meaning. I cannot at this time, however, reveal the author's It is signifi cant that nowhere in this text are the boss unioneers referred to as "labor leaders." The document is entitled, "significance of union officials' re volt against Truman mobilization program." "The twin objectives or our mobilization effort are the' in crease of production and the pre vention of Inflation," the docu ment begins.

"We have to in crease production enough to sup men- President Truman seems to have cooled to the point of being no longer their willing and unquestioning servant to the degree they frankly say they are entitled in return for their support in 1948. They claim their support was the deciding factor, but the 81st congress didn't interpret the 1948 election as a mandate to give the unions anything they wanted. This was especially evident in the decisive defeat of the repeal of Taft-Hartley." (To be continued) QUESTIONS and ANSWERS Would aa aU-aluml highway bridge be practical?

Jacoby on Canasta New Laws Simplify Canasta The National Canasta Laws Commission has announced new laws for Canasta, in cooperation with the Argentine Commission. The new laws represent an effort to simpiuy penalties so mat me average player can understand them without a lawyer. For example, let's take the most confusing law of the old the correction of an insufficient meld.

In the bad old days (just ending), you were a very unhappy cooky if you put an insufficient meld on me table. You had to leave the cards down as penalty cards and you had to discard those cards if you couldn't meld mem. very few people un derstood the law so I was always being Can partner correct me Aieia me oirenaer meia those penalty cards later on And so on. Now it's very simple. If you put down an insufficient meld and don't correct it by making- it suf- ncienr, you just picK up me cards and put them right back in your hand.

Then, whenever vou (or your partner) later try to make proper initial, meld, you need 10 points more than usual. For example, suppose you need 50 points for the initial meld. After drawing from the stockpile, you hold: 2-A-K-Q-10-9 6-6-6 5-5-5 You absehtmindedly think that the deuce is a joker, and you try to meld it with a pair of fives. Mind you, this would be a very poor play even if the deuce really were a but that's another story. Naturally, the opponents howl when you put down 5-5-2.

And, just as naturally you see your mistake. What should you do? If you wish, you may put down the other five and the three sixes. Then your meld will total 50 points, and everybody will be satisfied. (Your partner win't be happy to see you make such a foolish meld, but who cares about partners?) A better remedy would be to pick up the 5-5-2 and put them back in your hand. (This is perfectly legal and proper.

You are not absolutely obliged to make your mild sufficient.) Now, the next time you or your partner makes the initial meld in that hand, me meld must consist of at I Smart move! least 60 (10 points than the usual 50 points). This would have no effect on the next hand. On the next hand you would need the normal amount, depending on what your score What is the penalty if you make insufficient meld twice in the same hand? Legally, the is mat vou need an additional points (10 points for each error). In actual practice, your opponents would probably ask you to keep your mind on the game or to take up uaaiy-wuucs. Mr.
