Nation Landmarks Are Being Listed

WASHINGTON (UPD--National Park Service officials said today that the big job of listing the country’s historic and prehistoric landmarks should be completed by 1963. Among those recommended for inclusion in an NPS survey is >he Angel Mounds area near Evansville, Ind. Ten NPS archaeologists and historians are compiling an inventory of sites and buildings “exceptionally” valuable in commemorating or illustrating the United States’ history. When their work is completed and the mammoth list finally is approved by the Secretary of Interior, the government will have a detailed accounting of the sites and properties significant in the country’s development. Survey field men will inspect each and record pertinent facts—why the site is important in U.S. history, its precise location, condition, ownership and present use. But that is only the first step in a weeding-out process. Inventory sheets on those which pass the first screening are sent to the NPS office here and evaluated by the service’s Washington staff and a special counseling committee. An 11-member advisory board subjects the list of those which survive the second examination to another screening, and the final, whittled-down list then is passed on to the interior secretary for approval. , First team cheerleaders are Beverly Myers and Linda Riley. Second team cheerleaders are Barbara Garwood and Karen Foor. —P.M.H.S.— The student body also voted Friday to form a Booster club to help cheer our team to victory. Everyone is urged to join the club and support our team. —P.M.H.S.—

THE DfcCAttTR PAitY figMOCRAT, DECATUR. INDIANA

The survey includes 22 “themes” of U.S. history, ranging from pre-historic hunters to the overland migrations which stretched the nation’s boundaries westward to the Pacific Ocean. John O. Littleton, survey chief, emphasized that the federal government will not take on the financial responsibility for all sites included in the final inventory. They already may be owned by the government, or protected and administered by a state or patriotic organization. Angel Mounds, for instance, has been acquired by the Indiana Historical Society and transferred to the state. Indiana University now is excavating the property. The survey is intended to stimulate state and local groups to take on the preservation of the historic sites. Littleton cited the Cahokia Mound, site of a prehistoric Indian religious temple, near East St. Louis, 111. Once one of the largest such mounds, it already has suffered from the encroachment of highways, farms and subdivisions. Another, across the Mississippi, was submerged by the city of St. Louis. Q O 20 Years Ago Today o o Sept. 29, 1940 was Sunday and no paper was published. The Electric Cord The annoyance of having the electric cord of your iron, mixer, or electric drill constantly pull out or work loose in the wall outlet can be prevented with an ordinary spring-type clothespin. Just mount the clothespin with a screw on the wall several inches below the outlet, and use it to clamp your cord securely and resist (up to a certain point) any tension

Modern Etiquette By BOBEBTA LEB o—— Q- I have just received an invitation to a “trousseau tea.” What in the world is this, and am I supposed to take a gift? A; This is a very intimate kind of tea given by a bride-elect for the purpose of showing her best girl friends her trousseau. And you are not expected to bring a gift. Q. I know a young man and a young woman whom I should like to see get acquainted. How can I best arrange such a meeting? A. One good way is to invite them to your home together for lunch or dinner, or to a party that you are giving. Q. When a girl invites a boy to a dance at her school, is it proper for her to send him a boutonniere? « A. Unless this is a custom in her particular community, it is not generally done. Q. My boy friend in the army wants me to send him a photograph of myself with some kind of sentiment written on it. What would be appropriate for me to write on it? A. My best advice to you is to write nothing! A girl’s picture on a barracks wall is enough of an attention-getter as it is—but written sentiments on it can attract the sort of comments and attention that you shouldn’t like. ♦ Q- When attending a buffet dinner, is it permissible to revisit the table for “seconds”? A. This is perfectly all right. The big rule to observe is to refrain from filling the plate a second time, and then leaving some of it uneaten. Q. Would it be all right for me to have my telephone number engraved on my stationery? A. No; this is done only on business letterheads. Q. While I was confined in a hospital recently, my clergyman visited me every day. How can I show my appreciation? A. Your sincerely-expressed thanks should be enough. But if you really wish, you can give him some small gift, which can be something you know he needs or something for the church. Q. Where do I put my olives and radishes served at a formal dinner, when there is no bread-and-butter plate? the plate from which you are eating. Salt for the radishes goes there, too.

New Nations Seek To Avoid Cold War

By PHIL NEWSOM If there is one thing in common among new nations, it is an overwhelming desire to avoid the whipsaw of the cold war made frighteningly evident at the current session of the U.N. General Assembly. One of the men they look to for guidance is a thin, dark-skinned man in jodhpurs who came to the glass - encased U.N. headquarters this year reluctantly. He is Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru, a sadder and wiser man than only a few years ago when he was decrying Western alliances and openly admiring the Soviet Union and Red China as shining examples of a brave new society. A Third Force This year as cold war tensions reach one of their periodic peaks and as neutral nations increase their voting strength in the United Nations, there has been a cor-

responding increase in speculation that there soon is to emerge a socalled third force which would function in the vacuum between the Communist East and the capitalistic West. The neutrals, covering a vast area of the earth and with a population of hundreds of millions, would comprise this force. There are men who have openly aspired to lead this force. Among them are President Tito of Yugoslavia, President Nasser of Egypt and President Sukarno of Indonesia. But none of these has the prestige of Nehru. And among them all, none should know better than Nehru the difficulties of welding such a force and the unlikelihood that it every truly will emerge. An Ambitious Attempt One ambitious attempt occurred in 1955. That was the Bandung confer-

PAGE THREE-A

ence in which Nehru was a prominent participant. Nehru used it to urge nonalignment with power blocs and called NATO "one of the most powerful protectors of colonialism.” But, from the start, the conference called to demonstrate unity among the Afro Asians demonstrated only that they, too, were divided. In the end, Red China stole the show. A year earlier she had signed with India a pact of non-aggres-sion outlining five principles of coexistence. This theme she also pressed upon the participants at Bandung. Five years later. Red China demonstrated its good faith with armed aggression against India’s borders. In years past, India has championed Red China s fight for membership in the United Nations. There is no such plan on Nehru’s agenda this year. Most binding to the neutrals is a common hatred tor colonialism. Nikita Khrushchev playa this theme and wins their sympathy with his demands for disarmament. Destruction of arms is easy for those who have none.
