Socialist Front In Europe Speculated

By K.C- THALER United Press International LONDON (UPD — Recent shifts to the political left have conjured up the specter of a “Socialist front” in Western Europe that rtiight act in solidarity, as did the Catholic Christian Democrats in the years after the war. Tn Britain where the Conservative government of Prime Minister Harold Macmillan is hard pressed, the Laborites have been gaining ground steadily and are at present confident they can win the next general election. In West Germany Chancellor Konrad Adenauer’s Christian Democrats have suffered losses to the Socialists in West Berlin and. more recently; in the Rhineland, one of their . strongholds. In Italy leftist advances are predicted in the forthcoming elections. Nowhere in the major Western European countries have the Socialists so far taken over power, but political observers foresee an orientation of Europe towards the left in the near future. This prospect has set off speculation that a Socialist front might be welded in Western Europe in SOTI< K TO TAXPAYERS OF A DDHIONAI.

the wake of Labor’s access to, power. Such a front, it is said, would align Labor in Britain with Socialists in Germany, Italy, the Scandinavian countries, Belgium and The Netherlands—comparable to the post-war alignment of Catholic leaders of Germany, France and Italy. Past experience has shown, however, that Labor leaders in Europe appear more closely in tune when out of power than when in government. But on some major issues, like defense, they agree. Britain’s Labor Leader Harold Wilson is closer to Kennedy on nuclear strategy than is Harold Macmillan. Wilson is advocating that Britain abandon an independent deterrent and leave the monopoly in the West to the United States. German Socialists also appear a good deal less keen on the deterrent than the government in Bonn. Some political observers hold British Labor’s defense policy might have been “tailor-made” to fit the American concept of the future of NATO.

If the guests seem really interested, it is all right. But to have the set in operation while conversation or a card game is in progress is NOT in good taste. Q. Are desserts ALWAYS eaten with the fork? A. Some desserts are too soft to be handled with the fork. A good rule to follow is to use the fork whenever possible — but use good judgment, too. Q. When there is to be a doublering ceremony, with the bride and groom exchanging rings, who pays for the groom’s ring? Q. ,Is it proper to phone one’s acknowledgment of a gift? A. Ulis is better than no acknowledgment at all. But, a nice, per-sonally-written note of thanks seems to convey more interest and more sincere appreciation of the gift.

Khrushchev Insists Red Talks In Russia MOSCOW (UPI) — Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev regained the initiative in his dispute with Red China today by insisting that any peace talks between the two Communist giants should take place in Moscow. A Soviet letter to the Chinese Communists indicated that the deep Slno-Sovict rift still is far from a solution despite overtures from both sides for consultations. Khrushchev Tuesday rejected an invitation from Chinese Communist chief Mao Tze-tung to pay a peace call to Peking, and suggested that Mao should come to Moscow instead. The Soviet letter, from the central committee of the Soviet-Com-munist party to the central committee of the Chinese party, said Mao would get a “worthy welcome” here. It proposed May 15 as a date for a meeting. “The best time for such a visit would be the coming spring or sunimer — good seasons of 1 the year in our country,” it said. Though the 10,000 - word letter was couched in polite terms, it made clear that the Kremlin intends to stand pat on the major issues c dividing the Communist world. The letter defended Khrushchev’s peaceful coexistence policy, reaffirmed support for the Tito regime in Yugoslavia, and said the Russians would continue to support "wars of national liberation." All of these positions are contrary to Red China's views.

Stainless Steel Satellite In Orbit

CAPE CANAVERAL (UPD—A 410-pound satellite made of stainless steel soared around earth and a 3,330-pound payload sped toward the moon today in man’s two latest space ventures. The satellite bore the stamp “Made in U.S.A.” It was sent into orbit Tuesday night aboard a 90-foot Delta rocket from Cape Canaveral. The moonlet may compile the most detailed information yet available on the tenuous atmosphere that hangs in space as much as 600 miles above earth. The moon probe is a Russian product — Lunik-4, which is expected to arrive in the vicinity of the moon sometime Saturday. The much smaller U.S. satellite was the simpler of the two shots — but it may provide returns that will be useful immediately in both manned and unmanned exploration of space. Scientists hope the moonlet will outline a detailed picture of the extent of air particles that exist hundreds of miles into space. Generally, it is believed that earth’s atmosphere ends about 50 miles up. Actually, atoms of helium, hydrogen and nitrogen are trapped in earth’s gravitational pull deep into space. The particles may be several feet apart, but they are still numerous enough to exert a “drag” that can change the orbits or shorten the lives of satellites. The new satellite, dubbed Ex-plorer-17, was built to detect these particles and measure their density.

SPACIAL WASHINGTON I Reform Os Pentagon Hailed By Speaker By U.S. Rep. John W. McCormack SfeaArr of National Houu of Refretentativn

The most remarkable accomplishment of this Administration has been in the field of defense, Mg?*? It has provided us with the finest defense in K X the world at the lowest possible cost to the taxpayers. Today, America has a defense force that ineludes a powerful nuclear deterrent as well as Irt Jf' a strong conventional fighting machine. RT " And yet Secretary McNamara saved more Bl- ' ' fl than $1 billion in the Defense Department last HHMMHB year without reducing the effectiveness of our w. McCirnu-*

armed forces and he promises to save $5 billion a year by 194 J. This is not a hypothetical figure. alt was presented—and documented—to the Congress as an example of how efficient management practices are giving us more defense for our dollar. The money was saved because Secretary McNamara cut through Pentagon red tape. He reorganized the Defense Department. - - He installed a new system of financial management. He eliminated weapons systems that were outdated. In short, he plugged the leaks where defense dollars were being drained away into projects that no longer contributed to our combat power. These are the kind of actions that has given the Congress—which is very conscious of how the taxpayer’s dollar is spent—the assurance that the Defense Department is being run as it should be. We are especially pleased because, before this Administration, we were told that any changes would hurt our defenses. Well, it hasn't. There is something else about our improved Defense Department that we in Congress are pleased to see. This is the refreshing candor ■ with which the President and

Witnesses Mark Memorial Monday Jehovah's Witnesses of the Decatur congregation will celebrate the memorial of Christ’s death Monday, April 8, at 7:30 p. m. The announcement was made here by Clyde D. Steele, presiding minister of the local congregation. April 8 this year corresponds with Nisan 14 of the Jewish calendar. For that reason it is celebrated once each year on the anniversary of that date. Emphasizing the importance of the celebration at which peak attendance is expected. Steele said, “Hie celebration will be observed in all the congregations of Jehovah’s Witnesses throughout tiie world, Last year more than 1,100,000 attended.” Steele will give the memorial discourse, and he will draw on 1 Cor. 11:26 and Matthew 26:17-30 and others to show why the witnesses celebrate this event only once each year and what it means. Sunday before the memorial celebration, April 7, a special Bible lecture will be given by R. D. Dellinger at 3p. m. The name of this discourse is, “Resurrection of a Dead Body or of a Dead Soul, Which?” All meetings are free and open to the public.

Secretary McNamara have set forth our defense policies to both die Congress and the pub-; lie. As far as I am concerned, these matters have never been presented to Congress in a better way. As an example, Secretary McNamara will spend at least 12J hours this year testifying before Congressional committees, presenting information and answering questions. And when be presents bis Defense budget, he does not offer us only a few pages of geni eral comments. He presents us with a de- : tailed statement that runs to ' several hundred pages and that explains exactly where our I money is being spent. We are told why it is spent ■ on some projects and not on • others. We are told the reason- ' i ing behind every major decision. Finally, the great bulk of this j statement—all the essentials—is • promptly declassified and made - available to the press and any 1 ' private citizen who wants this ■ information. It is this willingness to sub- { : rnit to public scrutiny that ' • proves, more than any other t single policy of this Administration, that our defense is sound, ■ both in respect to men, guns, I missiles, and dollars.

of the state and one-half to one inch elsewhere. March precipitation totata«kere the greatest for that month in any year since 1905 in some places. Temperatures hit highs in the 80s throughout the state Tuesday afternoon, breaking records and giving Hoosiers more than a touch of midsummery heat. It was 83 at Louisville, 82 at Cincinnati and Evansville, 81 at Fort Wayne, 80 at Indianapolis and South Bend. The Indianapolis high was one degree above the previous record for April 2 set in 1946. It was the second day in a row for a record reading there. After overnight lows in the warmish upper 50s and low to mid 60s, the mercury was slated to hit highs ranging from 77 to 85 this afternoon, drop sharply into the 30s and 40s tonight and climb no higher than the upper 50s Thursday. The cooler trend will continue through Friday and there may be a warmer pattern developing by the weekend. Our advertisers are for your HOME TOWN — DECATUR. Patronise them.
