In 1879 the House judiciary committee even rebuked an investigating committee for trying to pry out State Department records legaiciing the in conduct of George F. Seward, a Consul-GenerChina. "Under our theory of government, the judiciary committee ruled, "all the records of the executive departments are under the control of the President. Whenever the President hag returned (as sometimes he has) that in his judgment it was not consistent with the public Interest to give the House such information, no further proceedings have ever been taken to compel the production of such information. Indeed, upon principle, it would seem this must be so. The mischief of the House calling for documents might easily be a very great one. honest-to-goodne- ss AFTER THE APRIL FIRST story had appeared In The Herald-Journlast Saturday evening, many folks called up to ask: "Is this really so?

Not only his party but the whole country is the loser. ill health will compell Vandenberg to . Presumably keep to the sidelines most of the time from now until his term expires in 1952. He does not intend to run again. Theres no doubt Vandenberg is the man who made the foreign policy a working formula in Congress. That service has been of inestimable value to the nation at a time in history when the United States needed to show a united front to a world plagued Sen. Arthur H. LONDON, England The British Broadcasting Corporation, better known as the BBC, is without a doubt the most conservative netwoik in the world. It is run by intellectuals with foreheads averaging a foot m height, and their idea of a light program is a lecture by Sir Wilon the tariff liam Thrip-Thro- p rates in Tanganyika, or an hour of popular funeral dirges. Vandenberg was uniquely fitted for this role. He dedicated himself in recent years almost entirely to foreign issues. As a specialist he gained stature in the eyes of both parties. His remarks took on added weight because he was not constantly embroiled in the daily verbal brawling on domestic questions. Strangely, too, his influence seemed the greater because he was an isolationist before he was an internationalist. His collagues felt in him something of the fervor of the convert. His dramatic shift, made m response to the realities of atomic and guided missile warfare, was the real beginning of his leadership ia the Senate. Within the Senate Republican group there developed a sort of division of labor, Vandenberg carrying the burden in the foreign field and Senator Taft piloting 1 The Herald Journal Serving All of Cache Valley Printed Every Day Except Sunday at Logan, Utah Robert W.

We move steadily toward the prefabricated state. Yet we see clearly that In England, socialism turns rapidly Into communism, and that in Russia and Jugoslavia, communism gives neither freedom nor security.

There e are 2 highways, separated by a wide but not deep borrow pit. There Is great need in Utah for numerous highway improvement programs. It ws no surprise to many citizens when, last week, a highway conference emphasized the generally poor conditions of many Utah roads. For years, north Cache civic clubs have been plugging for reconstruction of the stretch of road from Smithfield north to the Idaho state line. Lewiston organizations have repeatedly asked a new bridge and other improvements along the road that goes from highway 91, west to Lewiston City. Logan wants Mam Street resurfaced, from curb to curb, in order to eliminate, once and for all, the treacherous railroad track bed. State officials will explain, at any time and to anyone, that there are more requests for road improvements than there are funds to finance them. i Blocking Asiatio Communism This column recently secured a copy of a letter written to Prime Minister Nehru of India by the Living Buddha of Western Mongolia, now a refugee in Baltimore living under the wing of Owen Lattimore, the Johns Hopkins professor whom Senator McCarthy has charged with being the top Communist spy in the United States. India has long been considered by the United States as the key country in blocking the spread of Communism, which is one reason we gave Prime Minister Nehru the royal-carptreatment on his visit here last fall. The Living Buddha seems to have similar view's. Anyway here is the letter sent to Nehru by the man whom "top Communist spy Lattimore brought to the U. S. A.: The teachings of Communism, expounded and propagated by Lenin, have spread widely and now prevail over more than four-fifth- s of China, The Living Buddha wrote. "The remaining one-fifis about to encounter danger, and the terror of Communism seems to be approaching near to Tibet. The road is difficult for a military offensive against Tibet, yet if they were able to win the mind of Tibet, they would with small numbers be able to dominate large numbers I pray earnestly that your honor, with your vast understanding, will protect Tibet and show that country and teach it how to proceed and to understand. t "Mongolia and Tibet are alike in religious faith," the Living Buddha continued. Moreover, the fundamental policy of Communism is not to make use of any religion, but wherever its teachings may reach, to extinguish immediately the religion of that land. In Outer and Inner Mongolia now, religion is vanishing altogether. "If Mongols fleeing from Red terror should teach your honored country of India, I pray with profound faith that they may be aided and protected." g I thought an Amencan toot ball team would all out slaughter an I nghsh i ugby team what My two ti lends puiled seemed to be simi'ai boners and when we left it was with a feeling that we stood lil'le ham o of becoming fixtuies on the BLC continue to decrease.

THIS IS MY ADVICE: whenever you find yourself within conversational spray range of a person who purports to have a little cold, duck as fast as you can and beat it out of range. This is not neaily difficult as it may seem at fust thought. After all, conversational spray range is not mote than five feet from the face of the sprayer, only' two or three feet in quiet conversation. Thus you may feel fanly sure that no matter what the may be coming down with, hell keep it to himself, at least while chatting with you. Ql ESTIOVs A ANSWERS Should a Child Reduce?
