* TOMORROW morning at Ft. Harrison a slew of Army officers and enlisted men are going to be ‘worrying about their “Open House” at the - Finance School. They have been working long hours for the past several weeks to prepare for Armed Forces Week and tomorrow when their personal latch will be off the doors. Visitogs ‘are needed.

Col. John C. Lackas, Fi- " mance School Commandant, and his men want the public to see ‘what the tax dollar is buying. Frankly, the men would like to show off a bit; We all know what a bust an open house can be when no one shows up. I was out to the Finance School yesterday and some of the officers and men frankly admitted that they are taking a chance. Finance is hard to dramatize. It's an important phase of the military but glamour doesn’t drip from ledgers. "de a CIVILIANS have demonstrated a greater interest in guns, airplanes, warships and presentations that involved noise, movement and color. The suggestion that the area be sprinkled generously with greenbacks, since it is a Finance School show, went unheeded. Worrywart Lt. Randal Nay took the opposite

view. He thought the public would be interested

in seeing what the Army is doing to train the men and women who handle billions of dollars. The men in charge are proud of their house, their work, their record as compiled by the graduates of the school, Since last July 2500 men and women were graduated. ® And the graduates, the officers are eager to point out, all have been thoroughly indoctrinated with economy. Even when you facetiously raise an eyebrow the men get long faces. They are aware of the bad publicity that has been cropping up over waste. That doesn’t change their work at the school. Human weaknesses are hard to control. oS FOR THE “Open House,” beginning at 40 a. m. to 4 p. m., specialists will be ready to explain various exhibits pertaining to the program of education covered by the Finance School.

Ta The Army Wants You—As a Guest

A model office, where actual working, condi tions are simulated for the student, will be ope erating full blast for the visitors. The motto of the school is “Learn to do by doing” and. ia man doesn’t learn he’s liable to be handling a bazooka instead of a ledger. That's at the lower level of trainjng. Col. Lackas said the majority of men assigned to the Finance Department of the Army are college graduafes in economics and business administration or have had experience in finance. The school has instruction programs for the man who is going to make simple clerical tasks to the man who handles sacks of money as large as the one on the float used in the Armed Forces Day parade. Incidentally, the hoat used ‘yesterday will be on exhibit. It is a fine piece of work and cost very little of our doubt to build. oda THERE WILL BE free movies of sur troops in action. A visitor will hear a complete explanation of radiation measuring devices and if he likes, can upe the Geiger counter around the premises. Bring a luminous dial watch for best results, The Fairchild Aircraft Corp. will have a large display to show the Air Force's role in support of ground troops. Men were completing the installation of an arctic tent, replete with all the equipment necessary for survival in the arctic regions. Courses of the Finance School will be graphically displayed and explained. Should you go out, ask questions, many questions. You'll get a kick out of the enthusiasm the men show and the pride they feel in their work. o @& Oo FROM THE Regular Army officers and men to the “Christmas help” (retreads and drafted men), all are so eager to make the “Open House” a success it hurts. Especially when you think what will happen to morale. if they find themselves standing around looking at each other. Don’t worry about finding the Finance School at the Fort. Go to the main entrance and from there you'll be traveling on a red carpet of hospitality. You can learn by doing. You also can learn by seeing. It's the Finance School's “Open House” and the show won't cost you a dime.

HE FINALLY tracked the waiter-captain to his home, dragged the drowsy man out of bed, and introduced him to me. “Hello, Bob,” the man said. “Hell, Joe,” I said. “How you been?” “Pretty fair,” Joe said. “You?” “Not bad,” I.said. “Well, so long.” ‘‘Goodbye,” Joe said, rather wearily, I thought.

THE AVERAGE late-night phone call to friends consists of a few very simple questions. One asks the other what he or she is doing, and the answer, obviously, is nothing. The conversation continues to sparkle along these lines until someone thoughtfully trips over the extension cord and brings the business to a merciful end. I am not an advocate of censorship, but I sincerely believe that some sort of lie-detector-cum-sobriety-test should be administered by police officers to all people of Southern descent before they are allowed to touch a telephone after midnight. Especially when my time is not your time, old buddy, and maybe I had rather sleep than talk. Personally, I wish Ameche had the whole thing back. }

RETURN TO MORALITY

Issue Eclipses Party Politics

By CHARLES W,

. No. 4—

TOBEY

United States Senator from New Hampshire ANY fine people in America are trying to live according to the highest principles. We thank God for them. Many of these folks from every walk of life and from every part of the country, have written to the Senate

Investigating Committee expressing amazement at the sordid picture of corruption exposed. The eyes of the people have been opened to conditions around them as never before. Because their qwn lives have been exemplary they have never dreamed that such conditions could exist, Their first thoughts of horror and amazement soon changed to the constructive one of “What n we do to make conditions” believed the old adage - that “one rotten apple can spoil the whole barrel.” Truly, it may be that any evil influence within the nation, whether it is a network of corruption across the country or nefarious affairs in a small community, must necessarily

. have its effect on the fine and

honorable people everywhere as well as those who are so easily taken in by subversive influences. America has spoken, through these thousands of letters which we have received so gratefully. Here are a few excerpts: “Let us clean up America, so. that we may again take our rightful place as a leader among. nations, and be respected by all.” “The deception, dishonesty, fraud and double-dealing that has been brought to light in official Washington has seriously undermined the morale of the citizens of the United States.” “These men do not care anything about our Constitution, yet they shout loudly about “our Constitutional Rights.” “Let us appeal to the moral decency of the nation.” “How can a mother or father teach their children right from wrong if they do not set the example themselves?” “How can the Congress set an example to the nation of honor and integrity when its own structure is honeycombed with dishonesty, immorality and political corruption? “How can our beloved United States stand up before the

tter?” They

world as an example of what a true Republic should stand for, when we are aware that a network of crime extends under our nation — crime in all its ramifications, bringing a moral and a political corruption of which we as yet have only touched the surface?” » - NA CRIME AND. all its components is a cancer that is eating into the vitals of our beloved country, so that our very existence is imperiled. We must do something about it, and at once, or we are lost. One man can do little by himself, A group of honest men ‘can do more, but with a nation aroused to the great danger, much can be accomplished, “These hearings have pointed up to the whole world how sordid our governmental fabric has become. Everyone recognizes the fact that it is the criminal element which gets out the vote, and so it really is that group which largely controls the officeholders.” “Not ,nearly enough of the honest citizens take the trouble to really investigate the candidates. Apathy is the greatest reason for the selection of weak government officials. Honest citizens do not go to the polls in large enough numbers to hold any weight. Many of the evils that now exist would be overcome if every good citizen would go to the polls on election day.” This is, of course, a very healthy sign. The nation is be-

Greed and Taxes «+. No:

coming aroused from its longstanding apathy, and is ready to work as a unit to make these conditions better.

The issue to he determined must rise far above party politics—this issue which is the salvation of our nation. It is not a contest between Repub-

i

licans, but between right and wrong. All decent people, who believe in the moral code of truth and honor and fair play, must fight as a unit against the common foe of moral corruption, no mattér what their political affiliation.

The vital point now is not

mst

love of party’ but love of country. Just as we mus unite against the foe with we must band together against the peril within. Ancient Greece, with all her cluture and all her sciences a all her military stren passed into oblivion, and hi glory faded, There. was the Roman Empire with its great temples and Coliseum, but nets have all crumbled into rul consider the ancient nation Babylon, with all ft a pomp, and circumstance. Recall the feast of Belshazzar, where were gathered together all the leaders of the nation, a nation which wor shiped no spiritual God, but the god of the flesh and material things, and which was steeped in lasciviousness and crime, At this.great banquet there appeared suddenly on the walls the words, “Mene, Mene, Tekel, Upharsin.” Wise men and astrologers were brought in to translate the words but could not.

Then Daniel was brought in, and to him was given the task of translating the warn. ing which appeared on the wall. And Daniel sald. ‘ “This is the interpretation: God hath numbered thy kingdom, and finished it. Thou art weighed in the balances. and art found wanting. Thy kingdom is divided.” And that night was Bel shazzar slain. And Darius, the Median, took over, History has a strong habit of repeating itself and we Americans are not immune from reaping what we sow any more than the early nations centuries ago. Are we, too, to be weighed. in the balances and found wanting?

City Is Vivid, Gilded And Flat as Floor

By WARD MOREHOUSE BANGKOK, Thailand, May 15—What a place this Bang-

kok.

It's Asiatic and irresistible it’s the town on

the around-the-world route that you will want to talk about if any preoccupied friend back in San Francisco,

Atlanta or Kokomo manages to say, in an offhand inquiry, and without any intention of waiting for an answer. “Oh, yes, tell me— how was the trip?” This city be3ide the muddy river Balled the Shao Phraya, and not very far from the Gulf of Siam, can be, and often is, the main objective of many people who have the time, and can find the money, for a globe-circling adventure, Somehow, you're not oversold on it, TI liked the place the instant I walked into the gleam-

est thing I've seen since Darryl Zanuck’s Hollywood office, and ever since my arnival I've had the feeling that I was right back in New York's St. James Theater, watching the decor and the excitement of “The King and I” all over again. .There are some Americans, including the wife of Ambassador Edwin F. Stanton, who will insist that flying all the way to the constitutional monarchy of Thailand is no trick at all as compared with that of getting choice seats to the musical play at the St. James Theater in 44th St.,, New York City, United States of America.

Demons and Spires

THE VIVID and kaleidoscopic Bangkok is a town as flat: as the floor — three feet above sea level, I believe, It's a place of myriad sights, sounds and incantations — a city of gilded spires, bejeweled temples, blue and gold tiled roofs, glaring, leering demons in mosaic and stone--and such architectural whimsies as over-lapping roofs and up-curling serpentlike effects at the gables. Bure, there are canals (or kiongs) all over the place and yellow-robed Buddhist priests and three-wheeled bicycle rickshaws called samlohs, and there are Siamese, unnumbered thousands of Chinese and about 1100 Americans, but don't come here expecting to find elephants pushing teak logs around on New Road. All of

that belongs to the up-country

and to the Siam that used to be. There are probably a million or two young Siamese who have never seen an elephant, out

Everyone Busy

IT'S IN BANGKOK (population around a million) -—strange, mystic, congested, fascinating —that you are given the impression that everybody is busy. They're not hungry and they are working at something or other. A woman selling postcards in the Temple of the Reclining Buddha easily made change for ‘a 100 ‘tical note ($5); a girl with a cold drink cart on New Road had a queue of four patrons as I paused with ticals in hand; the restaurant called Chez Eve, the only air-cooled eating place in town, was jammed at lunch and I'm told that Hoi Thien Lau will be that way when I go for a Chinese dinner. These Americans, they get around. Bangkok is about 10,000 miles from San Francisco but the first person I met as I stepped off the Pan American Clipper from Calcutta was Ed Lind, top man here for Pan American and an old friend from the coast. There, too, were sisters from Dothah, Ala., in a New Road souvenir shop; a roaring fellow from Lake Tahoe, Nev., talking about a celebrated neighbor, Ty Cobb, and during the detonating weekly session of the local Rotary Club one of the Bangkok extroverts came along in a shoul-der-pounding way and said, “Hell, boy, I knew you when you were a police reporter in Atlanta and put on ‘Alias Jimmy Valentine’ for the cops’ relief association.” I supposed he did. }

‘Eight Servants

THERE ARE Americans here who curse the heat—it's 102 as I write—but, with something of a defiance, they will tell you that Bangkok is no hotter than St. Louis or Ft. Worth or New York and they will tell you about the advantages that life in Thailand offers. “Take my set-up,” said a member of the American colony as we ordered luncheon—spinach soup, club sandwich and the root vegetable dessert, Gula ‘Malacca, served with coconut cream and syrup—at the Chez Eve. “I have a nice house and eight servants. They're highly specialized. There is the No. 1 boy, who is a girl, and we have a cook, a coolie for the cleaning, a gardener, a guard for .the house at night, a nurse for our two kids, a driver and the

newly resigned chief investigator of the King Committee, “If meémbers of our group hadn't been adamant in airing Bureau of Internal Revenue corruption, this shame would never have seen the light of day. “However, In the cases of Joseph D. Nunan Jr, Daniel Bolich (former tax officials) and others it was strictly a matter of ‘coming events cast. ing their shadows before.’”

Mr. Nunan's career has been inexorably woven into the fabre. of Democratic politics for years. On Feb, 10, 1944, he left the post of tax collector in the first New York district for _he commissionership on the express nod of the late Robert E. Hannegan, himself a former national Democratic chairman.

» . ” PRESIDENT Roosevelt named Mr. Nunan top tax man with the approval of Henry Morganthau, then Treasury Secretary. When Mr. Nunan left the First District, Mr. Bolich was Brooklyn's revenue agent in charge and James B. E. Olson ‘was assistant collector.

The same year — 1944 — the corruption picture exploded in Mr. Nunan’'s own collection district. Eight employees of this office were convicted of bribery and extortion.

“When the tax scandal expose gathered steam,” Mr. Dowling obseryed, “and the names of Nunan, Bolich and Olson seemed destined to hit the headlines via public. hearings, the administration first started to put the heat on. Pressure came from several directions.

“On Feb. 14, Rep. Cecil King (D. Cal), committee chairman, charged the Justice and Treasury Departments with trying to ‘stifle’ the probe concerning Nunan and others. And Rep. Kenneth R. Keating (R. N. Y.), member ot a Judiciary Subcommittee assigned to probing the Justice Department, threatened to put the matter ahead of other {issues in his own committee hopper.”

» - » WASN'T a member of the King Committee itself eager to avoid public hearings?

“Yes,” the investigator said. “Rep. Eugene Keogh (D. N.Y.) was long known by other committee members to be personally friendly with Nunan, Bolich and Olson.

“To the amazement and embarrassment of the committee, Rep. Keogh hopped from the hearing dais when Olson testified and carried on friendly conversations with the witness and his lawyer during recesses. In February, Rep. Keogh went to House Speaker Sam Rayburn in an effort to halt the public hearings for Nunan, Olson and Mealey (Carrol E, ailing former deputy revenue

commissioner).

“Mr. Rayburn did manage to ban TV and radio coverage but Rep. Robert W. Kean (R.N.J.) threatened to blow off the lid if the public hearings were muzzled. Rep, Keogh tried des-’ _perately to have the committee hear Nunan and others only in executive sessions.” This, Mr. Dowling said, was the first move toward a ‘whitewash. ; “When administration brass saw the committee couldn't” he iii the wall was tossed-to

the Justice Department,” he continued, “Treasury Under Secretary Edward Foley ‘and others figured that by convening a special federal and grand jury in Brooklyn prior to completion 6f our probe, they'd give witnesses a legitimate ‘out’ in refusing to testify before the committee on grounds of selfincrimination. “This circuitous manner of white-washing our findings became the perfect dodge. Nunan,

Bolich and Olson all refused to

testify before the King Committee as to their net worth.” » . » THE JUSTIOE ‘Department also was hostile, Mr. declared. “Attorney General J. Howe ard McGrath created a bottleneck we couldn't cope with, He flatly refused our requests for files on pending cases on the premise it would be unfair to prospective tax case defendants. “Meyer Rothwacks (Justice Department official) meticulously screened every Justice file we asked for. A real rhubarb developed when we requested the file on the Finnegan case (convicted St. Louis collector) and heated words came when

we aired the Delaney case pub--

* MR. DOWLING "said Tees McInerney, head of the Justice Department's criminal division, flatly refused to release the Delaney dossier, “Adrian DeWind (chief committee counsel) next went to A. Devitt Vanech (deputy Atterney General) and stressed need for the file. Word came back from McGrath, who p viously said he was advis the President not to make Justice Department file a able to us. McGrath's answer was: ‘No.’” Irked at the Justice Depart-

ment brush-off, Mr. DeWind spread the Delaney saga on public record testim

of two Boston special agents assigned to the commitise probe. “Did the whitewash work?" Mr. Dowling asked acidly. “What do you think? Who knows today how much Nunan, Bolich or Olson 01 are worth?”

Don't Be Frig Shtened by Life’s Physical Changes

By ADELE E. STREESEMAN ERHAPS the most frightening aspect of middle age, to the majority

of women, is the physical one. They feel that it signals the end of physical attractiveness, alertness and that ft brings that terrifying change called menopause. Actually, it need not mean the end of any of these things. As for the so-called “change: of life,” ‘life is full of changes, from childhood , through adolescence through maturity and on. We can't escape it. Doctors generally know much more about the menopause and how to deal with it than they did in your mother's day or even a decade ago. They will know more in years to come. They know how to bring women through it with the least physical discomfort and with a maximum of safety. So, don’t listen to the old wives' tales about this period in your life.

. - r IT DOES bring physiological and life adjustments that can’t be avoided. But the woman who has her emotional life on a sound basis, who has real friends in her husband and her children, has little to worry about. ! The menopause brings on nervous breakdowns only when it requires adjustments of women who have been incapable of making them all their lives. The other physical aspect of the middle years—outward appearance—is one that many women worry about to a point of hysteria.
