Diplomats and others Tokyo crosspassing through-throads say that sentiment is swing ing toward the Unted States and away from Red China. We don't have to look too far for the reasons. India and such other neutralist lands as Burma and Indonesia have become greatly alarmed over ." 4 , Tibet. j:' They' have been disturbed also by evidences of Red China's con- tinual efforts to interfere in Japanese elections, and its attempts to, use trade as a political weapon.' Contrary to earlier, impressions suggested by some, the Asian lands were not strongly; hostile to our isdefense of the Nationalist-hel- d lands of Quemoyland Matsu. They were in fact thoroughly annoyed at the Communist attacks, and would have been badly let down had we yielded, They have begun to take seri ously the value of a stiff U.S. stand as a vital offset to! the Chi nese Communists. Up to now the leaders and diplo-mats in the- - neutral countries of Asia have made virtually a career of leaning over backward to give Red China the benefit of all doubt. But when the Chinese resorted to naked force in Tibet, and excoriated India 'on the false grounds of aiding the Tibentan revolt, the Asiatics really began to wake up to their peril. They have little question now as to Peiping's fundamental' intentions. Y The shift toward America is a milestone that long seemed out of , reach. We can thank the overbearing Communists, who. can conceal commonplace to say that American Far Eastern policy has been heartily disliked by the uncommitted nations of Asia, particularly India. Unquestionably there has been a great deal of substance to this, though probably not Is much as some contend. z1 .Warnings have been heard .for a long time against the danger that uni6n power in the transpor- tation field could prove not simply monopolistic but coercive of countless elements in the general econ' omy. With recent disclosure before the Senate Rackets Committee that such pressures have indeed been exerted to exact tribute fron certain nationally known publications, Chairman McClellan of the committee now' proposes a new antitrust law to give leverage against this abuse.

' Washington Lowdown : By PETER EDSON NEA Washington Correspondent WASHINGTON (UPD There hasn't been as much inflation in the United States as many people seem to think, in the opinion of Dean Allen Wallis,. of Chicago University's School of Business. Dr. Wallis is a newcomer to Washington, as vice chairman' and executive Cabi-ndirector of President Elsenhower's ' Committee on Price Stability ' and Economic Growth. In this position,, his ' views are worthy of note. There hasn't been much inflation in the last year; Dr. Wallis points out. There hasn't even been much inflation in the last seven years, he adds. The exception was in the period of et first quarter of 1956 to first quarter of in-1958, when' there was a IVz per cent ease in the consumer's price index,; or c.

These devoted servants of humanity rarely have ah opportunity for dramatic lifesaving as comes,; say, to the surgeon. Nevertheless without nurses, both patient and physician would be up against it. Modern nursing owes its origin to the great, Florence Nightingale.; Before her reforms began to take effect, hospitals were almost all filthy buildings. Patients with serious infections; lay side by side with those who had no germ infections at all. People who went to hospitals died like flies. Florence Nightingale's first big opportunity came when the Crimean (War. broke out in 1854. She found on her arrival at the scene of hostilities' that in the barrack hospital alone there were four miles of wounded soldiers lying less than 18 inches apart. This was years before the part played by germs in diseases was ' known or the principles of anti- septic surgery discovered.
