Mr Dulles himself since Assn irn Philadelphia the Presi-jhi- s dent expressed some second thought on Geneva They were designed to correct the impression that we have gone soft and that intoxicated with the spirit of Geneva we may be willing to sign away our interests in Germany and in Eastern Europe Such false impressions are what come of talking aJout f°r eign affairs in resounding moralistic inaccurate rhetoric rather than in cool matter of fact and precise" language There never was any excuse for letting the impression arise that Geneva would soon be followed by a settlement of the big issues of the cold war There was never any excuse for raising the false hope that the Soviets were about to surrender their main position in Europe or the false fear that we were about to surrender the Western position It is often said these days that nothing of substance was changed by the Geneva meeting It should be said I believe that Geneva reflected and registered the very great change that has taken place during the past two years in the relations 'between the Soviet Union and the Atlantic community The change is in the realization on both sides of what has become official doctrine and policy — that with modern weapons and in thef existing balance of power there is in the President’s words no alternative to peace What was affirmed at Geneva was the recognition of this military stalemate This r stalemate has and will go on having far reaching con se-quen- Eur-foreig- - n return home from" Geneva has proclaimed as the American ideal the doctrine of Yet he is also calling for the unification of Germany on terms which would demand the most radical concessions by the Soviet no-for- ce — Union The problem of how to bring about changes in international relations particularly changes in the control of territories is known as the problem of “peaceful change” It is the crucial and it is the hardest problem in the of international organization of Na the Neither League peace tions nor the United Nations has found a good solution to the problem — as witness Indochina Korea Palestine Kashmir North Africa With very rare exception the maintenance of peace means the maintenance of the status quo Now as regards the Soviet Un ion it is the West that most wants to change the status quo The administration policy as stated by the President at Phila delphia calls for the withdrawal of the Red army and of the Soviet political power from Europe This is what the unification of Germany on Chancellor Adenauer’s terms plus the liberaliza tion of the satellites means All this would be very desirable But it would be a very) big change indeed How is it ier be brought about especially since it was established at Geneva that the Soviet Union cannot be compelled to withdraw from Europe? GIVES INSTABILITY Not we may be sure by talkor by ing tough once more choosing to scowl rather than to smile The situation of the great powers is a situation of fact — they are in a military stalemate though the issues between them are deep and unsettled This situation of fact cannot really be altered by making speeches — by zigzagging between Eisenhower’s exuberant optimism and Dulles’ pessimistic forebodings The main result of the zigzag is to give an effect of instability of uncertainty and immaturity' in U S policy ‘ r Tension Expected Now brotherhoods’ Nonoperating N principal victory in the L to AFL’s research department is strike was a provision which American L the year the trend towards a shorter work quires the road to pay all health " & five-yea- g ! y K 1 sav-ings-sto- ck z Miss YEARS AGO iq Bernice Bingham I daugh- ter of Mr and Mrs Thomas Bingham had returned from an LDS mission in the East Central states and was honored at a welcome home party in the Riverdale Ward The Chamber of Commerce had discontinued the operation of the hospitality center on City Hall Park because the need for such an emergency service was over President William Eccles announced He said the service should be returned to private en' terprise The revaluation of real estate in Ogden City and Weber County resulted In a total increase of $1717442 or an increase of $437-39- 0 in the county and $1280052 in the city making the valuation $1465032 20 J no-for- ce - non-viole- nt war-surplu- - I all-nig- ht low-pai- d ! -- -- m nt long-rang- high-pres- u high-pressu- FROM OUR READERS LETTERS Good Bills Lost To the Editor: j ( re 1 - The Ogden Standard-Exam- Iner welcomes contributions to this column from its readers A11 should be reasonably-brie- f and must’ with no exceptions completely identify the sender Anonymous letters are not acceptable I Among the needed legislation that got lost in the rush of Congress to adjourn -- were two bills that would have eliminated some of the really atrocious cruelty that transforms aninals into food The National Humane Society These bills will come up again in of which I am a member for its the next session of Congress and free informative leaflet which everyone with a conscience should tells how everyone can help take part£during the congression- bring an end to the needless suf: al recessr in convincing congress- fering now inflicted on some 200 men that the great majority of million animals a year The SoBy W L GORDON Americans would applaud enact- ciety’s address is 733 15th St N ment of a humane slaughter law W Washington 5 D C Miss Florence A Steunenberg WORDS OFTEN MISUSED The bills to which I refer are 329 26th Street H R 1636 S and in the Senate Do not use “with” wheiv you are 6099 House the in They mean “of” as in the sentence “With Massachusetts as with Vir- identical and require only that in ginia the earliest settler were commercial slaughter houses (not Sir: English” Instead say “Of Massa- on farms) animals be anaesthe- Dear a few words we wish to In tized or stunned before humanely chusetts as of Virginia tbli eara our thanks to The with stabbed are or cut acknowledge they liest settlers were English”knife dropped into scalding wa- Ogden Standard-Examine- r and OFTEN MISPRONOUNCED ter or otherwise subjected to recreation department for their Accent first syl- treatment that now causes acute help and cooperation on our junExplicable lable not the second ior posses commending too Mr pain and Mrs Charles Story for the American few A very slaughter OFTEN MISSPELLED methhouses are using humane good work they are doing Access (admittance) Excess ods but most in of them persist Just two interested parents of (superfluity) two unnecesin the Ogden Valley Junior cruelties The cruelty is t SYNONY3IS sary and is proved by the fact Posse Sincerely Cafch capture apprehend dis- that even a few slaughter houses Mr and Mrs Joseph B have adopted humane techniques ' cover entrap ensnare seize humane-mindeChristiansen people urge — of I this WORD STUDY V' to to Eden Utah write community “Use a word three times and it is yours" Let us increase i n ENGLISH LESSON 0 - re- - 7What could the administration have done what could it still do to avoid such confusion? It could explain the military stalemate to our people — that it means that we have the power to prevent the Soviet Union from expanding its orbit but that we are prevented by Soviet power from forcing the Soviet Union to roll back We can for example defend South Korea and Formosa against overt aggression But we cannot drive the Communists out of North Korea or the Chinese mainland We can defend West Germany and West Berlin But we cannot compel the Soviets to withdraw from East Germany and East Berlin How under these conditions does change come about? “By diplomacy or failing that by the passing of time in which a wholly new situation develops In conducting diplomacy as Mr Dulles is now doing in the the Geneva climate of chief ‘means of reaching satisfactory agreement is to trade Something can be done by appealing to world opinion But not much For world opinion is unlikely to back us strongly The net result of Geneva is that' with force stalemated agreements now depend on negotiation and in just thijcontest negotiation issomeanother name for giving thing for something and of trying to strike a mutually profitable bargain PREPARE NATION The President would prepare the country 'for what is coming if he explained to the country means He what negotiation would then come down out of the clouds of those brave abstract principles and down on to the hard earth where we must live with and must deal with the Soviet Union It does no good to mystify the reality of things by talking as if we expected by a “crusade!’ to convert the’ Communists jto the principles of Thomas !Jefferson and Woodrow Wilson It is no good allowing Mr Nixon to talk as if we could get everything for nothing merely by blowing our own horn loudly enough That can do nothing but mislead our oW-- people Thanks for Help in freight trains ForJew-ethan 81 cars the pay increase is 20 cents a day For 165 cars $130 -- r n n-- NOWNO ONE WANTS TO FIGHT" - and welfare benefits This marks the start of a drive to end the present system of having employer and employe share the cost of these benefits FURTHER INCREASES Fringe benefits like pensions paid vacations health and welfare benefits have been increasing steadily The trend is toward further increases varying from company to company with 'no fixed pattern One new trend won by the auto workers is for a seventh paid holiday each year made up of two half holidays on Christmas and hew Year’s Eve Vacations of more than two weeks for old employes are increasing To give salaried employes extra fringe benefits General Motors is expected to approve a purchase plan It is similar to the Ford plan which the auto workers turned down DuPont has offered such a plan to all its employes who where organized are largely in independent unions Under this plan employes may authorize payroll deductions of $1250 to $3750 a month to buy U S savings bonds For every dollar the employe puts in the company donates 25 cents towards the purchase of DuPont stock i lC J j -- st -- NIA Service J- FACES CONSEQUENCES Mr Dulles who is now preparing for a foreign ministers’ meeting in October is faced with the consequences A big problem was posed at Geneva It is how if force and the threat of force are renounced the Soviet Union can be induced to make a settle' ment that it is not willing to make What is to prevent the Soviet Railway operating brother- Union from- standing pat on the hoods claim their most significant gain of theear was in ini- partition of Germany and on its tial agreements for pay differen- satellite empire in Eastern tials based on the number of cars week One worker in six is now on a standard work week of less than 40 hours Development of the 35 to 3714 hour work week has not been limited to any one and General Motors con- area It is more common in non tracts were negotiated with only manufacturing than in manufacturing-industries limited work stoppages I CIO Electrical Workers tasked Over the long haul AFL offi General Electric for a guaranteed rials expect the shorter work annual wage They settled instead week to be the answer to the rer for a contract with 32 placement of men by machines in “better- living” fringe benefits technological advances or autoplus a 3 per cent annual wage mation increase But the “GAW” ques- WON INCREASES tion may be opened later AFL truckers have won wage With these pattern-settincontracts renegotiated peacefully increases and hours reduction in the big job for the remainder of a number of regional and statethe year is to extend their pro- wide contracts In the New Engvisions to other companies Most land contract truckers outside of these contracts are for two the Boston metropolitan area years or more The number of were given the Boston scale contracts expiring in 1956 will The trend towards area bartherefore be much lower than gaining in place of the local conthis year This piakes for greater tracts which AFL craft unions have traditionally negotiated stability in labor relations may be something to watch MAKE NEWS In the AFL building trades Decontracts al- partment of Labor reports wages These ways make the most news But in increased by an average of 33 their quieter local contract ne- per cent equal to nine cents an gotiations American Federation hour during the year ending July of Labor’s new contracts have 1 This puts the building trade’s been setting some different pat- average range from $204 an hour terns for common labor to $347 for The biggest change according bricklayers with a top of $385 g two-third- i - Labor-Industr- y -- !
