Legality of the Soviet position can be supported on the theory that might is right, but on no other. Obviously, the Russian-Chinese treaty, under which the Russian occupation is supported, contemplated a future rather than the past war in providing for Russian defenses
If, however, the fiction is maintained that Russia and Japan are still at war, and that Russian troops must be stationed at Dairen to protect Red army communications from enemy attack, then, in the same technical sense, the United States and the Soviet Union are allies in the war against this long-since defeated enemy. On what score, then, does a Russian officer have any right to order an ally “vessel to leave port in 20 minutes? 8 s a'® : HAVE Russian naval vessels been ordered out of any *% ports under American control? ; Soviet newspapermen are allowed to visit areas where * American troops are in control.

But somehow, it sounds like whistling in the dark to me. I don’t see how any woman in her 50’s can be glad she never had any children. I especially don’t understand it when she’s a widow like my landlady. The neighbors began to make preparations for Christmas. One of them, told me the landlady was going to put her foot down on Christmas trees, that she considered them fire hazards. Well, I just took time by the forelock, assumed that she approved of the trees and asked her to come over and help us trim junior’s. You should have seen the sunrisesmile spread over that woman’s face. She was simply delighted to come, She dug up some tree lights in her attic—they're very scarce you know—and insisted that we use them. In fact, she was the life of the party. I believe she is really a pleasant woman but just a little thorny from being lonesome. I believe we could change a lot of people if we'd ask them into our homes at Christmas.

I DIDN'T KNOW about Mrs. Grogan's handkerchief—the: one she got for a Christmas present in 1885—until three years later, when in the spring of 1888, her little daughter, Minnie, brought it to school to use as a slate rag. It started no end of talk, I remember, Indeed, it almost broke up school. Up to that time all of the slate rags used in No. 6 were made either of cast-off socks or of red flannel underwear—certainly nothing so fine or fancy as a linen handkerchief with an elaborately embroidered initial in the corner, | Perhaps you, too, have observed that folks with fancy things always go out of their vay to flaunt them in the face ‘of peoplé not so lucky, Well, that was Minnie’s trouble, too, I remember. She even carried it so far that she took the slate rag home with her every Friday when school was dismissed for the week—to wash it, if you please, a thing unheard of in my boyhood bailiwick until Mrs. Grogan sent her little girl to school. It worked out, of course, that every Monday morning Minnie showed up with what looked like a brand new slate rag. It made the rest of us squirm.
Cleveland—The Man
ONE MONDAY MORNING, however, Minnie’s slate rag didn't look so good. It had an ugly stain and, when we kids with the disreputable red flannel rags heard about it, we made the most of it, you bet. I'll never forget Minnie's explanation. She said she went home that week-end and washed the handkerchief just as she had always done. Then she laid it carefully on a clean cloth and proceeded to smooth it with a hot flat iron. When she lifted the handkerchief, she saw the ugly stain. She repeated the process, she said, starting with washing the handkerchief again and, when she took the iron off a second time, she noticed that the stain was worse than before. This time it looked like the head of a man with rugged features and the unmistakable signs of a luxuriant mustache. Minnie said she showed the soiled handkerchief to
IN WASHINGTON . . . By Ned Brooks Portal-to-Portal Pay by Uncle Sam?
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27~—The federal treasury
. may bear the brunt of the drive by labor unions to
collect billions of dollars for their members in retroactive “wi g-time” pay. If suits now piling up in the courts are sustained, informed officials foresee huge sums lost to the government in refunds from war contracts still awaiting renegotiation.
Five Billion Liability? BY THE SAME TOKEN, they anticipate efforts by war contractors who already have made renegotiation settlements to have their cases reopened so that portal-to-portal pay could be added to their production costs. Even in cases where no war contracts are involved the treasury may be tapped for the major share of portal-to-portal pay. Many tompanies which are being sued may apply for tax refunds, based on the sums they will pay out. During the years in which the portal-to-portal pay accumulated these companies were paying taxes on excess profits, the tax rate for which ran as high as 90 per cent. These. companies now could call on the treasury for revised tax assessments inasmuch as their profit figures for the years involved would .be materially altered. The suits are based on a supreme court decision which appears to have upheld retroactive portal pay. Action by congress would be required before refunds could be made to firms which have signed renegotiation agreements with the government. Many agreed. to renegotiation settlements without regard to possibility of a later assessment for paying their employees for time spent in reaching their jobs after entering plant property.
NEW YORK, Dec. 27.—Anno Domini 1947 is going to be a lovely, fruitful year, because in addition to the abolition of jukeboxes I hope to effect a revision of the laws of our land. While congress is rejiggering the Wagner act, I hope theyll take time to write a new law. : This law will make it mandatory for all psychiatrists, psychologists, phsychoanalists and kindred readers of emotional tea leaves to appear before a national board to prove their fitness to speak for publication. This board will be com of me. You think old Judge Landis was tough?
‘Mom-ism' Is New Fad UP UNTIL THIS YEAR I was an ardent advocate of free speech. Now I am agin it, when it concerns the commercial voodoo practicers, the brewers of mental hellbroth, that brotherhood of loosetongued soul-probers who run straight from their conjurelairs to the nearest reporter. I, personally, am sick of having my ite lived by a bunch of withered old women and fat, eyeglassed gentlemen with dandruff, large heads and a working knowledge of public relations. I am weary of being experted into abnormality. The next time I take a lusty cuff at a small child I would like to consider it a reflection of my ordinary surliness, not an indication that I have fallen in- love with my raincoat. Lately I have seen reports stating that good children in school were malajusted little monsters, who would wind up either hanging from a rope or giving a hotfoot to the village parson. I have seen stories saying all G. 1.’s should marry motherly-type women, to compensate for a feeling of frustration they acquired in the war. Never in my life did I think that I would rise to defend motherhood. I thought it could get by on its own, travel under its own steam. I figured it was here to stay. Believe me, you're wrong. Motherhood is a decadent thing, discredited by the perpetual yowpers about “Mom-ism."
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.—According to diplomatic grapévine, Generalissimo Josef Stalin may not outlast 1947. Long ago he expressed doubt to a visiting statesman that he would live to see his first postwar five-year plan completed. And competent medical experts seem to agree that by adding up the known data on his case plus what would seem to be fairly authentic reports, his passing might well come suddenly like President Roosevelt's.
Policy of Liquidation IN ANY EVENT there is uneasiness here and abroad over who will succeed Stalin when he goes and what will happen in Russia, It is no exaggeration to say that upon the answer depends the course of world peace. Stalin is the world’s most powerful dictator. He is boss over 200 million people scattered over one-sixth of the habitable globe, Hitler, Mussolini and other smaller dictators copied his style and became his bitter enemies not so much because they were totalltartans but because they were working the same side of the street. That is to say, they also aspired to world domination. \ The bigger and more powerful the dictator, the greater the difficulty in replacing him, After Lenin's death, the struggle for his mantle shook the world.

As a matter of fact, the stain was 50 plain that we could identify it. The picture was the head of Grover Cleveland with whose features we were more or less familiar, if for na other reason than the fact that he was our President at the time. As for the inscription, it was somewhat fainter. But when Minnie held the handkerchief close up to a window pane, it looked like the words: “Cleveland—The man.” Hoyeves, there was enough space between the wo! suspect that be something more to be revealed, ny a) ve i It was sometime in the early part of June when Minnie’s slate rag acted up like that. , vaca~ tion set in shortly after that, with the result that for the next few months we had more important things to think about than Minnie's slate rag. When we got together again in September, it was apparent at once that Minnie had spent most, of her vacation washing her slate rag. At any rate, Mr. Cleveland's face Was more distinct and so was the inscription. Indeed, the inscription was so plain this time that it read: “Cleveland and Thurman,” the very candidates the Democrats had picked for the presidential election that fall. It had the whole South side guessing because nobody could figure out how Minnie’s slate rag knew the candidates’ names before even the Democrats did.
Back to Red Flannel
MINNIE'S FANCY SLATE RAG went back on her, though. When the returns came in that November, it was Harrison (and Morton) who won the election. Minnie and her mother were awfully upset, I remember. Indeed, Minnie reverted to type for I dis-| tinctly recall that she turned up in school the day after election with a slate rag cut from her old man’s red flannel drawers.

Board officials estimate savings of other billions in contract price reductions and in lower prices on new procurement. In a two-sided settlement, officials explained, cone tractors have no recourse for extra cost items dis< covered later, such as portal pay expenses. The board is empowered to make unilateral settlements, which the affected contractor may appeal to the courts within a specified time limit. }
Issue Not Clarified #
THE EMPLOYER'S LIABILITY for back portal pay—and the government's potential liability—may be reduced by a bill to be offered by Rep. Gwynne (R. Ia.) which would prohibit suits going back more than a year or two and forbid actions against employers who “in good faith” failed to make the payments. ; Some authorities, however, question the validity of an act of congress outlawing suits already filed Prospect of action by congress is believed to accoun for the rush of labor unions to the courts within the last few weeks.
“Mom-ism,” I learn from reading the quotes of pyschologists, is a national disease. It afflicts, espeq cially, the ex-serviceman. Mom-ism is an unsevery able umbilical cord which ties man forever to bh
mamma. It makes him unable to appreciate the virtues of his wife. It causes him to shoot craps instead of spending his evenings improving his mind with the: works of Jung. It sponsors a lack of appreciatio ¢ for fried tripe, and causes him to run into debt af the haberdasher’s. Considering that all the men who were snared b selective service were born of women, I am surprised we won the war. How we fought off the temptation} to hide behind the old lady's apron, when an ME-10§: or a Zero hove over the nearest cloud is a source of perpetual wonder to me.

Those Potential Jailbirds!
WE PROGRESS to the latest effusion from D: Ralph Banay, another of those unsettlers of th public peace. Dr. Banay says that because a femal pretties up before a mirror, she's a narcissist, or sel lover, “Women have, in common with children and potential criminals,’ the characteristics of emotiona, instability, fragility of inhibition between instinctiv desires and their fulfillment, and a limited ability endure disappointment.” : All right, Doc, we will line all the girls—thosd deceptive, unsavory, mentally-unfit, potential jailbird —up against a wall and I'll bet you choose the thir blond from the left.

armed sentries posted to keep possible eavesdropper. away, to plot his overthrow. Stalin found out abou it and there began a series of recantations, publi apologies, confessions and executions that amazed anc shocked observers everywhere. It did not stop unti every one of the 50 had been’ purged. And that was only the beginning. The process wen on for years. Other cliques and individuals suspecte« § of “deviations from the party line,” went the sam terrifying road. Today there exist two schools of thought concern ing Stalin's successor and what is likely’ to happe: when he dies. One holds that a more conservativ leader will follow him, telling the Russian people tha Stalin himself wanted 25 years of peace in which consolidate Soviet gains and provide the masses witl a higher standard of living. .
Vital to World Peace
THE OTHER BCHOOL is equally convinced tha thé new leader will represent the younger element c the Red army and will plunge ahead on new and dan gerous adventures. Russian nationalism is still of th Peter the Great brand and many of the expansion minded young marshals and generals are known to b eager to gallop Cossack-like far and wide. LL Among those mentioned to succeed Stalin ar Molotov, Beria and Zhadnov, all in their fifties. Th others range from 40 to 50.
