Her father, one of the earliest settlers, owned a farm that stretched from Washington, clear back to where New York now comes through. The land was first settled by her parents just 100 years ago. The Caylor farm also took in pastureland along what is now the boulevard and her father once farmed the land where Howe ‘high school now stands. ... Both of Mrs. Buscher’'s parents were longtime East-siders,

Best Known Hobbyist PROBABLY THE best known hobbyist on the street is Warner Trembley, who lives at 109. Mr. Trembley has been takgg pictures longer than his daughter, Mrs. Charles Schaub, “can remember.” He's had his pictures exhibited all over the nation and in Europe and has carried off many a coveted national award. ., . . Since Mr. Trembley was at work when we called (he's been an auditor at New York + Central some 30 years) we asked his daughter if she had any sample pictures around..She answered that her father has framed many pictures to hang in other homes but none for his own. “He just doesn’t get around to it,” she explained. Neither does y Mr. Trembley ever point his lens at any member . the family, So, just so: there'd be at least one hotograph in the ace-photographer’'s house we rushed in a Times photographer to get a picture of the youngest member of the household, Jacqueline Schaub, carrying on her daily conversation with a wooden : Indian in the corner. The life-sized Indian bust almost scared us to death when we saw it glaring at us from a corner but it doesn't scare Jackie. When all the rest of the children are in school she sits and talks to “Geronimo.” Mrs: Schaub doesn’t know how the odd ornament ever came to the family. She played with it as a child, as did her father before her,

Tangled Aid

WASHINGTON, Oct. 9—I have a little dissertation today on circles, walking in. Funny, perhaps, to everybody except a few million hungry Chinese. About all we've fed them so far is red tape. Early last spring Gen. George C. Marshall dropped over to China to see what we could do to help the inhabitants, He reported that food for relief was coming in, but it wasn’t reaching the people because the railroads were a shambles. - , He said what China needed was 50,000 tons of steel rails to haul the food to the interior. That sounded reasonable, It is, I am sorry to report, about the only thing that does sound reasonable in this whole circular dispatch. So the state department, the United Nations relief organization, the treasury department and the war assets administration put their heads together to find those rails for the general.

Embargo Stops All

THE WAR ASSETS people dredged up 18.379 tons of surplus army rails to carry the rice to the Chinese. This took time. By the middle of the summer there was so much food spoiling on the docks of Shanghai that the relief agency slapped an embargo on all shipments to China. The firg shiploads of rails were turned back. “But I still“don’t uriderstand why,” insisted Rep. Roger C. Slaughter of Mo. who was trying to straighten out the circles. “Well sir,” replied Moses Harvey of the civilian production administration, “the material was backing up at the ports.” “But why?” demanded Rep. Slaughter.

Aviati NEW YORK, Oct. 9.—Airplane propellers are not out of the supersonic speed picture—yet. } With the advent of jet propulsion and speeds exceeding 600 miles per hour the death knell of the con. ventional engine plus propeller setup seemed to have sounded. Aeronautical engineers had other ideas, And they began applying the same technique to propellers as that being applied to supersonic speed airplane wings. Two words, hyphenated, describe it. The words are “sweep-back.” ; Robert L. Earle, vice president and general manager of the Curtiss-Wright Corp. propeller division, recently announced a new revolutionary experimental propeller called the “sweep-back.” It is aimed to gain greater high speed efficiency and was developd under contract with the army air forces. It is being submitted to the air material command at Wright field, Dayton, O.

Low Speed Efficiency TESTS DURING the past year have proved that present advanced designs of conventional propellers provide efficiencies equal to turbo-jets at speeds approximately 600 miles an hour, and far greater efficiencies at lesser speeds. But it is anticipated. that

My Day

NEW YORK, Tuesday.—Both the President and Paul Porter of the OPA have very courageously explained to the people of the country why we are at present having a shortage of meat. Incidentally, I was amused yesterday to read of a Kansas farmer who said he and his family were quite well off and had no desire to visit the cities, which had a meat famine. So the whole country is not starving. I think it would be well for us to recognize & fact which we are apt to forget—namely, that a long 1 war. in which most of our resources were devoted to OR producing war materials, means a slow return -to normal conditions, The law of supply and demand, which you see invoked daily by someone, cannot operate when the supply cannot possibly equal the demand. The fairest thing to everyone would be to resume the rationing system under which people shared equally, If fhere was very little, at least everybody got the same ‘amount. To have kept our wage and price levels and to have accepted our restrictions until our industries had a chance to reconvert, until our armies had a chance to come home, and until labor had returned to more normal conditions, would have meant perhaps

face actual conditions. We hoped for a miracle which would let us re-

without any peridd of readjustment.” We are suffering now because we would not face realities.

Flower Showplace THE LAST ROSES of summer are still blooming in the yard of Mr. and Mrs, Matthew Steiner of 26 N. Riley. Since his retirement after 43 yars of

railroading Mr, Steiner has concentrated on “the yard beautiful” and the result is just that. The Steiners have more than 300 rose bushes, all of which Mr, Steiner started under fruit jars. The yard is one of the showplaces of that area when all the flowers are. in full bloom in the middle of June, neighbors told us. However, the roses weren't at all bad for October, and we have a bouquet that Mrs. Steiner picked for us to prove it. , . , We jumped from roses to baseball! stopping at 34 N.'Riley, the homes of Miss Mary Moore, Miss Catherine Durham and Miss Helen Bulach.. All three were grouped around the radio, listening to the world series. We did manage to pry Miss Moore loose. Miss Moore is one of those people who “never meets a stranger.” After the Cards had cleaned up, 3 to 0, we settled back and talked®over Riley ave. Miss Moore has lived there 10 years and on the East side most of her life. We wondered about the pleasant fragrance that wafted across the porch, familiar and yet one which we couldn't place. We dlmost fell over when she said it was her beef roast—no wonder we couldn't remember what the smell was,

. “Largely because of a lack of rails,” Mr. Harvey testified. “So you couldn't ship in any more rails?” Rep. Slaughter asked. “You mean the goods couldn't move because of no rails so they put an embargo on rails?”

Chinese Still Hungry MR. HARVEY SAID that was what he meant. Rep. Slaughter said it sounded like circles to him. A succession of witnesses then brought out the fact that the embargo still stands. The food still is on the docks. General Marshall still hasn't got his rails, the Chinese still are hungry, and apparently are destined to remain that way. The order to ship them the rails expired nine days ago. R. A. Stephens, the elderly chief of the government's surplus steel, said he had no further responsibility to get food to the stomachs of China. That's part of the story. The other part you've already heard; about how UNRRA started a couple boatloads of rails back from Shanghai to Yugoslavia. You remember how that happened about the time the Yugoslavs were shooting down our airplanes. They got 1700 tons of the rails that the Chinese couldn't use because thev needed them so badly. Somebody—and I still haven't heard who—stopped another victory ship loaded with 2060 tons for Yugoslavia. That was. last summer, : The ship’s still in port here, still loaded with the Chinese rails, and still destined—if it ever sails at all—for Yugoslava. I don’t know what General Marshall thinks about this. Probably just as well. This newspaper isn't made of asbestos.

propelle. . with swept-back blades will be able to carry propei.~v efficiencies at high speeds up into the region of 700 miles per hour. This would put them in direct competition with turbo-jets while still retaining other elements of superiority.

Perform Many Functions “WITH INCREASING propeller efficiencies with power plants of higher output,” Mr. Earle said, “It is indicated that propeller-driven airplanes will be with us for a long time to come.” It was pointed out that “high propulsive efficiency at other than maximum speed is of great importance in the overall operating efficiency of an airplane, as most, aitcraft must perform many. other functions aside from merely attaining high speed. “Better take-off, much higher climbing rates and ability to carry greater loads longer distances with substantially better fuel economy are possible with propeller-driven airplanes than with jet airplanes of equivalent power.” Supersonic speed jet planes now on the drawingboards specialize in sweep-back and swept-forward wings, They are thin and knife-like. The new experimental sweep-back propeller appears much like three Oriental scimitar blades with the'hand-grips attached to the hub.

There is a second problem which we will not face, and that is the problem of displaced persons in Europe. Europe is not able to support them, and these displaced péople do not wish to work and to establish homes in that part of the world where they have suffered so greatly.

No Mandates in Palestine THEY WANT to start in a new place. The President has tried to make us realize that there are displaced persons who might be of great value to us. Our example is needed by other nations. The President Tas—nrade a strong plea, too, that the recommendation of the Anglo-American committee for allowing 100,000 Jews immediately to enter Palestine be upheld. The British seem shocked at this idea. And the Arabs suddenly announced that it would require 600,000 American soldiers to enforce this recommendation, Why this sudden desire to see American soldiers replace British soldiers? Great Britain has the, mandate for Palestine— not the Arabs, nor the United States—and Great +» Britain asked for a joint commission to make rec- » ommendations on what should be done there. I think President Truman is asking us to give him some backing in our domestic meat situation. The government is not sitting back complacently. We may even buy Argentine beef. In the foreign field, even though the President is accused of bidding for votes because of his interest in. the Jews, I think he probably realizes that rightthinking. peoples. here. do not want any people to continue behind barbed wire either on Cyprus er in -Germany or in any other part of the world,

PAGE 11 Flabby Policy ?7—— Welles Fears Drift Toward '2-World Order’:

NEW YORK, Oct. 9 (U. P).= Sumner Welles believes American foreign policy — under President Truman and Secretary of State James F. Byrnes—is helping the world drift “toward the two-world order.” His new book titled “Where Are We Heading?” was published today, In it the former undersecretary of. state contends that since the death of President Roosevelt, American foreign policy’ had become “too often bungling and prejudicial.” “Usually at best it i§ ineffective and sterile,” he said.

» » » MR. WELLES accuses Mr. Byrnes of deserting the principles accepted by the Big Three at Yalta, He said they are flouting the terms of the Atlantic charter by associating the United States with the peace treaties prepared by the Big Four for the Paris peace conference. “This conference,” he wrote, “is oné of the most cynical devices to which the United States has ever, lent herself.” He said Mr. Byrnes was guilty of “a cowardly retreat from the posi tion for which Franklin Roosevelt had stood inflexibly at Tehran and at Yalta in behalf of the creation of freely elected and representative

governments throughout Bue Tope. . . LJ ” . MR. WELLES said that retreat

took place at the Moscow foreign ministers conference last Decems ber. At that time Mr. Byres agreed to recognize the Soviet installed governments of Romania and Bulgaria — provided they in-

cluded two representatives of “democratic parties not hitherto partisifating.”

The former career diplomat said the ‘United States never had re=

Jcovered from this retreat.

He sald that now-this country's foreign policy—abetted by “an ine creasing passionate popular prejue dice” against Russia on the part of many Americans—was accelerating drift toward the two-world order.” -

w » » THE PALESTINE policy followed by the White House and state department he called “flabby and timorous.” He said that the United States had unveiled its “highly construc tive" atomic control program six months too late, The interval between the ane nouncement of the atomic bomb and Bernard M. Baruch’s historic speech to the United Nations atomic ene ergy commission, Mr. Welles come mented, was long enough to give Russia suspicions. He said these Soviet fears were given time to grow into stiff opposition to the Amers ican proposals. ~

» ” MR. WELLES looked gloomily at American foreign policy in most

corners of the world. : But he expressed confidence that “it Is not too late” for the American people to promote changes in their foreign policy “as seem to them necessary in the interest of world peace and for their own welfare.” Failure of the United States to take the lead in promoting a joint Big Four policy in Germany may have made it permanently impose sible to install peace in Europe, Mr, Welles said.
