THE GREEN

With March ending, we yearn for green, the green that soothes the eye and warms the heart. Not the thick green of the pine, or the dull green of the cedar, but the new fresh green of grass and of maple leaves no bigger than a squirrel’s ear and of tulip swords and daffodil lances. The green of a violet’s leaf and calyx. The green that mists the hills and livens all the wvalleys. We become impatient now, as always at this time of year. Brooks flow again and we would hear spring music in their hurrying waters. Dogwood buds bead the branches, and we would have them swell and crack their casings. A robin struts the lawn, and we would have a dozen robins in full song, and a flight of warblers besides.

But most of all we would have the world green again, forgetting that {first must come the blush of the maples opening their flower buds, and the silvered tassels of catkins on the willows and the birches. First must come that warming amber glow to the withes of the weeping willow beside the pond—and now gives only a hint of that glow. First must come the ruddy color that livens the osiers along the streams. First must come the pale yellow mist of small bloom in the spice bush in the lowlands. :

After these preliminaries comes the green. There is a -sequence and a timing in these matters. Not that -the green is wholly absent, even now. Skunk cabbage begins to unfurl its broad leaves in the bogland, and beside the brooks, on sheltered banks, there are patches of green grass warmed by flowing water. But these are signs, not the full event. Promises, to whet our appetite. And so we wait for April, close ahead, green April with anemones in her wind-blown hair.

FAMINE IN CHINA

There seems little doubt now that famine in China this year will be catastrophic. There is reason to believe, on the basis of fragmentary reports, that the situation will be more critical than at any other time in a half century. What the people of the United States should do and how they should go about doing it, will be questions of the gravest import that will have to be answered shortly. It is necessary, therefore, that our thinking be clear and our courses of action sound and straightforward. The people of the United States have no quarrel with the people of China. They have been, and are, our good friends to the extent that their rulers will allow. Every humane instinet urges that we do what we can to alleviate their misery. That misery is very little of their own choosing. The Communist conquest of China is a relatively small factor in the causes of famine, although it has undoubtedly contributed. Rec¢ruiting of farmers and continuing shipments of foodstuffs to the Soviet Union certainly do not help the situation. '

But the individual Chinese who will suffer hunger and die of starvation have had very little to do with the Communist = conquest. We cannot make ourselves deaf to their appeal merely because we are at odds with the Government that has put itself into power over them. Continued on Page 7
