Show "Maybe He'll Drop One Before November" Bruce Biossat Lodge Winner in Oregon Editor Poll aflS)e SUNDAY, MAY 3, 1964 WASHINGTON Today's Editorials De Gaulle Gives Allies Brushoff Apparently proceeding on the theory that as long as there is no war, France can defend herself alone, President De Gaulle has taken another step in separating his country from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. The recently announced withdrawal of naval officers from headquarters units of the alliance is but a continuation of De Gaulle's policies that began when , -- he took office in 1959. French ships in the NATO Mediterranean and Atlantic fleets have already pulled out. French withdrawal from the English Channel fleet is expected next. After that may come removal of France's two army divisions in West Germany from Allied con- trol. According to De Gaulle, a mul- - Music Week Observed Here Today begins National Music a seven-da- y period dedicated to fostering and encouraging music. Mayor Verl G. Dixon has issued Week a proclamation putting the observance in effect here in Provo. His proclamation cited the benefits of music to mankind and commended the dedicated efforts of people of Provo carrying forth the music tradition. The week's observance is sponsored nationally by the National Federation of Music Clubs. Here in Provo the week coincides with the membership campaign of the Concert Association headed by Herald R. Clark. Music lovers of the area are BYU-Communi- ty busy completing contacts among citizens of the county. They hope to increase the membership, therefore insuring an outstanding 1964-6- 3 concert season. As in the past, some of the great artists of this and other countries will be brought here for performances. The concert association has been instrumental in establishing Central Utah's reputation as a national music center. Efforts of the group are to be commended. Certainly they are deserving of strong support by the citizens of this area. i Tvf Dr. lieve. In the meantime, De Gaulle goes ahead with the building of his "force de frappe" the independent nuclear force which it is estimated will cost $8 billion by er This involves the expenditures of $1 billion for a gaseous diffusion plant in France, millions more for the construction of a hydrogen warhead testing station in the South Pacific, more millions for the development of rockets and other equipment. By 1970, France hopes to have a few Polaris-typ- e submarines, with a together variety of nuclear-arme- d missiles. - France currently spends 7 per cent of its gross national product on defense, compared to the 10.5 per cent spent by the United land-base- d, CASE S453: Polly P., aged 20, is an attractive blonde But she has one striking fault that alienates men. While most Frenchmen agree that they have never had it better than under De Gaulle and are grateful to the man who has brought economic and political stability to the country if only for a while grumbling is increasunsatisfied domestic needs, such as housing, hospitals and schools. Whether French disenchantment with their return to "grandeur" will grow strong enough to have a slowing effect on De Gaulle's policies remains to be seen. From the standpoint of his erstwhile allies, De Gaulle's withdrawal into spendid isolation appears a costly and futile attempt to unwrite history. It is as if France's very existence as a nation had not been made possible, twice in a lifetime, by the sacrifices of her allies. It is as if all of America's efforts and expenditures since World War II in developing a global shield against communism had never been made. Of course, it is only because these things did happen that De Gaulle can act as he dogs today. Blood-re- d red fingernails that suggest blood!

Whereupon I glanced at her fingernails. Thisj,man was right. For Polly's nails extended a full half inch beyond the ends of her fingers. "Claws like that make me sick at my stomach," this young man added, as he turned away from Polly. And Polly probably wondered why some of the most attractive boys in the crowd shunned her. Many girls are "mental goose steppers." They don't think for themselves but just follow fads uncritically. If any radical fashion designer tells then to stain their nails bloody red, they meekly follow, sheeplike. "Why did the fad ever arise for women to wear clawlike nails?" you may inquire. Well, it was supposed to be a "status symbol" of the wealthy or aristocratic women. For any girl who actually worked would break off her nails. Co clawlike nails were supposed to Indicate a "kept" or "idle rich" girl. But in modern America, there is a general aversion to people who do not carry their end of the load in life, so clawlike fingernails are doubly repulsive. And that is also trua of the abnormal " r&E picture. No artist would think of letting the frame detract from the canvas or oil painting that it surrounds. That would be a gross violation of the basic rules of art. But many nitwit girls and women will violate this rule of art every time they dress up.

Rather Be Hungry Than Smug I7d Mr. Robertson By FRANK C. ROBERTSON President Johnson's war against poverty is not exactly a new thing. People who can see beyond the needs of their own pocketbook have always been in favor of it. It began officially when the last big depression put our economy on display like a moth-eate- n blanket spread out on the counter of a dry goods store. Literally millions of American people who had work- ed hard and saved their money suddenly found themselves threatened with destitution. To prevent a complete economic debacle President Roosevelt threw the resources of the government into the fight against hunger and founded what has been sneeringly called, "the Welfare State." It had to be paid for by the or passed on to future generations. Today, Roosevelt's name is seldom mentioned by those who fancy themselves the upper class without a sneer or an oath. Mistakes were made. Indolent people have taken advantage of it to live without working. Far more have used the boost to beIt has not come for rich hurt the profits and salaries are higher than ever and people are enjoying greater luxuries than they ever did before in spite of the squawking about high taxes. Untold thousands of children have become educated who otherwise would never have seen the inside of a college, and most of the people who talk against the welfare state belong to that generation which was most helped. Yet today many children live in poverty, and because of lack of opportunity and education, are unfit to compete in today's labor well-to-d- o, self-supporti- fads. The average man does not object to a The Chopping Block States. Nails Repulsive Women's Fashion By GEORGE W. CRANE, Ph.D., M.D. ng. market. President Johnson's attack is on a new front; not to ladle out charity, but to create more opportunity. The charge will be made that the poor are not worth helping, but people who want the city slums and the mountain shack to stay as they are are not the people who live in them, but the smug, the indifferent and the who don't care who goes hungry so long as they are well fed, and if this makes you sick at your stomach, lady, you de self-satisfi- ed BERFY'S WORLD serve it. You can always turn away from truth, you know. Some profess to believe that this should all be left to the states for fear the Federal government will become too powerful. How mucjj the states can be trusted jspretty well shown by the poverty that exists in those states which deny civil rights, and by the disgraceful actions of their representatives in Congress who denounce the government in a speech one day and then go into some government bureau the next to plead for a larger appropriation for some pet project in their own general welfare. There are poor bums who will take any handout offered, and there are rich bums who maind lobbies to get tain special favors from the government. There is really not much high-price- y differnce between the with a tapeworm in his belly, and the stock broker with an ulcer in his stomach. I was unable to get a college education, which I wanted more than anything in the world, but I have made my own living and have never asked anyone for help, but I have known plenty of people just as smart and just as deserving as I am who have failed. Many of them have been far more industrious than I, yet they are failures while measured by one small yardstick I have been a success. I could have been more successful had I had the predatory instincts of a coyote. I had a lot of experience with coyotes in my sheep-herdidays, and while I admired them as the most cunning and crafty of all animals I never cared to emulate them, or their human counterparts. The richest man in my community when I was a boy spent most of his time complaining about high taxes, which were not more than about one per cent of what they are now. He never went hungry a day in his life, and had no cause to worry about the future. He thought himself a generous man.

BERRY numerical margin 121 to 102 responding editors were in tune with the latest public opinion surveys within Oregon which show t he ambassador drawing upward of 40 per cent of t he GOP popular vote. In California, similar polls show Lodge not on the ballot leading Goldwater by several points. Editors from the Midwest contributed nearly a third of Lodge's total in the NEA sur- - vey on the Oregon primary. The South, the Pacific coast and the Middle Atlantic area followed in t hat order. also Goldwater's comes markedly from the South, and from the Plains support states. Only 11 editors think Rockefeller can take first place in Oregon, and four of these speak for Pacific coast newspapers. Nixon, newly cranked up with an organizational effort in Oregon and the lead choice of NEA client editors to gain the presidential nomination,, is the pick of 29 editors to win't he Oregon affair. In the sampling on the Cali4 fornia Goldwater? primary, of his pulled a third support (as probable winner) from editors, 22 per cent from the South, 11 per cent each from the Plains and Pacific coast areas. Only in the Middle Atlantic states do as many as a third of responding editors give Rocky a chance to win uv California. In the South, just 17 per cent think he can bring that one off. Jack McHenry, editor of the Bremerton (Wash.) Sun, who picked Lodge to win in Oregon, comments : ''My hunch is t hat Lodge is the giving the Republicans break they needed by staying out of the country and letting others pound the streets for mid-weste- rn him." William G. Kreger, managing editor of the World in Coos Bay, Ore., was among those who maintain that Goldwater will take the Oregon delegates May 15. He writes: "As of now, Goldwater seems to have the edge, in our opinion, primarily because of his state organization support." A California editor says of Goldwater in his state: "He is going to win hands down unless Rockefeller comes up with a lot stiff er campaign." Robertson 'Sees Both Sides' in Writing Column Editor Herald: An overdue Jetter a columnist, Frank Outlawing Bible Reading are Provo citizens and proud that the mayor proclaimed "Project America Day." It is a pity that we Christians have permitted the necessity of this proclamation. In submitting it to the mayor, Jim Vandygriff deserves commendation for his initiative for reminding us that the Bible is the only book that can lead our nation out of the confusion in which it now finds itself. History has written book after book of what has happened to nations that have placed the Bible in second place. It is obvious that the first place to teach the Bible is in the home the cradle of learning. But the fact is its teaching is sadly neglected in this institution. The same parents who fail to teach it in the home may not be able to get their children to attend church. In this light Many pleased No Sportsman, Says Reader Editor Herald: In looking at the picture of the geese that were shot off their nests, the word "sportsman" doesn't fit such a person who would go out and deliberately destroy some one else's property. The guilty person, in my book, is something far less than a the school is the logical place to teach t he word of God. When school teachers have such a heavy load, as one parent said who wrote in the "Mail Bag" recently, that they are un- able to give time for the time honored practice of prayer and Bible reading in school, it is indeed a sorry plight. Outlawing Bible reading is a dark spot on the United States Supreme Court. Envision the result if it is unchecked, no chaplains in the House and Senate, none in the armed forces, no more hymns sung in school, no Easter pageants and Christmas trees in the schools and "In God We Trust" of our coins. Indeed it is a beginning of capitulation, a surrender of precious liberty. In the final analysis, men cannot destroy the Bible because it is God's eternal word. "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away." son. He is one of the few that speaks from the top of the hill observing both sides and doing his own thinking. Many columnists today are obligated to political parties and special organizations, as I see it. This narrows their judgment to where they can see only the side of the hill directly in front of them, caring little what is on the other side. In recent years I had my first opportunity to read Mr. Robertson's column, "The Chopping Block." I was much inspired by his breadth of knowledge. I knew it could come only from a man of much wisdom. Though society measures intelligence by years of education and degrees, "God's servant," Mother Nature, measures it only by what the mind possesses regardless of how it is obtained. Abraham Lincoln, with less than one year of schooling, developed such wisdom that today it is still ringing in the minds of the people. I look forward to reading the Chopping Block.
