Eicenhower, who conceivably could be the next president of the United States, believes be-lieves that there are three fundamental principles of American life. First, that individual freedom is our most precious possession. It is to be guarded a the chief heritage of our people, the well-spring of our spiritual and material greatness, and the central target of all enemies internal inter-nal and external who seek to weaken and destroy the American republic. Second, that all our freedoms personal, economic, social, political freedom to buy , to work, to hire, to bargain, to save, to vote, to worship, to gather in a convention con-vention or join in mutual association ; all these freedoms are a single bundle. Each is an indispensible part of a single whole. Destruction of any inevitably leads to the destruction of all. Third, that freedom to compete vigorously among ourselves, accompanied by a readiness to cooperate wholeheartedly for the performance of community and national functions, togther make our system the most productive on earth. . These three principles express the common faith of loyal Americans the shining guide that, for the vast majority, points always the straight path of America's future. In the industrialized economy of the 2oth cen tury, that path lies down the middle of the road between unfettered private power concentrated on one flank, and the unbridled power of statism on the other- Sacramento Union STARTING POINT Our Newspaper Week editorial will be short and to the point, Peace in the world depends upon understanding ; and understanding depends upon the free flow of ideas across this planet. Until ideas can be expressed, written writ-ten and circulated freely throughout the Americas, throughout Europe and Asia, and elsewhere, it is unlikely un-likely that peace will bless the earth. More effective in reaching that goal, perhaps, than armies, navies or the atom bomb, is the newspaper. For "freedom goes where the newspaper goes." t " M . , ! w"J :'f i , i'f COOL. FRIENDSHIP . . .

This 'N That Ethyl Nielsen Hair LIFE IS SHEER POETRY Hi, Folks, October and another Poetry week awaits poetry lovers- Do you remember away back when a poet was a guy with long hair, and considered odd? Or when a poetess was a lass who had been disappointed in love? Things have changed since then- Many, many things have changed greatly. We have grown up in our attitude towards the arts. We appreciate the fact that poets have the advantage over ordinary mortals because they see the beauty in things that is beyond our vision. They point out so much the inspiration and apprecation of life's wonders, that they are an envied group. To be a real poet is to be truly inspired. It is fortunate for the world that we have poets or so much of life's beauty would go unsung. Many of us confuse rhyme with poetry, while much poetry does not rhyme. Poetry sings to the reader. Poetry should be as smooth as Orem's Velvet highway high-way deep like the undercurrent undercur-rent of a river with understanding. understand-ing. It should leave a reader with a better understanding of the beauties that surround us everywhere. I asked a poet what is poetry? poet-ry? He said, "Poetry is music and song expressed in words . real poetry is a symphony of words- It isn't a poem unless it pleases the reader .... unless it soothes, unless it exalts unless un-less it elevates and inspires it is not real poetry." Life should be real poetry if lived at its best. As in poetry there is a meter, a rhythm, life has its discords, its broken met er, but life with right attitudes I would be sheer poetry. Life can be lived as a masterpiece .... poetry of the soul- A baby's smile Is sheer poetry. The gaiety of youth, the charm and dignity of the sunset years . . . prayers are poetry. A mother's moth-er's lullaby, the rain and the sun, the wind, the seasons autumn TO ENLIGHTEN THE WORLD THIS WEEK THESE MEN HAD THIS TO SAY: "We have met with the union's flat ultimatum that we must accept the recommendations of the presidential steel board as the equivalent of the determination of a compulsory arbitration tribunal. United States Steel declines de-clines to bow to that ultimatum." IRVING S. OLDS chairman of the board of directors of U. S. Steel If American plunderers start a war, the war will not be confined to the old world, but will reach America. People in their senses understand that the distance be-tween be-tween Moscow and Philadelphia equals precisely the distance dis-tance from Philadelphia to Moscow." ILYA EHREN-BOURG, EHREN-BOURG, Soviet army newspaper Red Star writer, in Sunday's edition. "Those who own the soil and use it determine the future of mankind .... It has been so. in the past and will be so in the future." DR. JOHN A. WIDSTOE, member of the council of twelve apostles of the LDS church at conference Saturday. "Our (Democratic) program is as American as the soil we walk on. It is a program unshakably founded on the principle that the power of the government should be used to promote the general welfare' President Pres-ident TRUMAN in radio talk on Tuesday. "Free enterprise and personal liberty are in serious jeopardy in the United States, and the elections of 1950 and 1952 will determine whether the country re. mains free or comes under the domination of those who would establish the so-called welfare state." RD JOSEPH F. MERRILL, member of the council of twelve apostles of the LDS church, at conference on Sunday. "The figures on the decline of motion picture attendance attend-ance by owners of television sets range from 13 percent per-cent to 84 percent. . . (and) . . . the greatest percentage percent-age of those who attended movies less frequently were from those who formerly saw them most frequently " MARCUS COHN, attorney for the Theatre Owners of America, at the Los Angeles convention of that group. "The officials of Saturday's Notre Dame-Washirtgr ton football game were incompetent. .... (and I am) tired of accepting incompetence politely and without comment." Coach FRANK LEAHY of Notre Dame, following the game Saturday at Seattle in which Notre Dame defeated Washington, 27-7. with its moonlight nights and lovers lanes, winter and the Mr. and Mrs. William Car- lyle and daughter, Dianna, and white majestic mountains, stow iRuth Fleming of Pheonix, Ariz- covered, bpnng with its new i ona were guests at the home of hope and lovers' vows.
