Should that be done, socialism as a political issue will be dead. Candidates seeking the nomination of either or both parties will do well to realize that the hometown papers can materially aid tn securing delegates to the nominating conventions, as well as in providing votes at the November election.

SHAPE leaders recognize France as a special problem but they do not share the dismal viewpoint of the French military effort often attributed to that country by other Europeans. France is fighting a man-sizewar in Indo China. Much of her military strength is being diverted to that sector and while some critics will characterize this as a "Colonial'' war rather than a struggle for the freedom of suppressed peoples, the hard fact is that 48,000 of her commissioned and officers are engaged on that battle front. Our military leaders think the Frenchman will, and has the ability to put up a good fight if called upon. The French economy is rocky and the government is shaky, but when the chips fall, France is expected to do its part. Italy can't do much about building up her forces until she is released from the restrictions of the World War II peace treaty. (Greece has just finished a horrible and bloody civil war against Communists and is ready to fight Communists again, if necessary. But the Greeks too want peace.

"Do they have a good football team? Its Its nice, Avis answered. She raised her eyes as far as Jims hands like It was a terrific effort. Bruce clenched bis teeth. Didnt she know anything! If she put one tenth of the gayness of her conversation five minutes ago into talking with Jim, he would be interested.
