Darkening Clouds in Asia , Any hopes the Western democracies may have had that General Mao, the Chinese Communist chieftain, might turn out to be another Tito, not beholden to Moscow, have just about gone glimmering. Mao's attitude toward the democracies has grown chillier by the day. And the recent incident involving the imprisonment and beating of U. S. Vice Consul William Olive was obviously deliberately provocative. Propaganda denouncing "western imperialism" grows in volume. It is possible that the real showdown may come'first on the island of Formosa. After the surrender of Japan in 1945, the Allies bestowed Formosa, long held by Japan, upon China. Chiang Kai-Shek has converted the island into a -Nationalist government strpnghold. Armaments, supplies and equipment in quantities have been transferred there from - the mainland. Chiang apparently is using it as at least a parttime headquarters, as his latest appeal for American aid came from Taipeh, Formosa. ' . AC the moment the Communists are not in, a position to attack Formosa. But it is almost certain .that they will do so as soon as they have secured control of South China. Formosa lies directly athwart the sea lane between the Philippines and Japan. The strategic position of our occupation forces, in Japan would be sharply threatened if this flanking position were in unfriendly hands. ; Unfortunately the. Communists probably would find strong support among the native Formosans. While' Japanese rule "was not relished, it was efficient. Under the Nationalist Chinese the natives have been badly mistreated and they are also suffering from severe inflation since the island returned to rule by China. The whole position of the democracies in Asia seems less secure now than at any time since the war. The recent return of thousands of Communist-indoctrinated Japanese prisoners of war to Japan is certain to create difficulties there tor General MacArthur. There is every evidence that these, long-held prisoners have been carefully trained by Russia tor the purpose of fomenting communism in Japan It is now mmored that Moscow is about ready to take a much more active and open part in the Chinese Communist drive lor control of all China. If that happens and there seems to be no reason to doubt that it will the ticklish probem cf Formosa may ccme to a head in a hurry. It's worth keeping cur eye peeled in that direction. '

For The Ladies: A Diet That Really Works

We went out visiting the other night and the ladiea were talking away about weight-reducing diets. One of them had a special "15-day Hollywood diet" guaranteed to slim her down fifteen pounds worth. Another was living on bananas and skim milk! I might have known the missus . would get the bug, too, and sura v enough the other day she asks me, "Joe, what kind of a diet do you think I ought to go on?" ; "Mother," I says, "the only diet I would ever recommend to anyone is simply moderation. I wouldn't

trust any of those get-thin-quick diets. Simply cut down on desserts, bread, butter, sweets and fats but when you do, even do your cutting down moderately." From where I sit, moderation is the watchword. Moderation with food, with smoking or with the enjoyment of a friendly glass of temperate beer or ale. Actually, moderation adds to the enjoyment of just about anything.

, 1 This famous German soldier was already in retirement when Kaiser Wilhelm called on him to take charge of German forces in East Prussia, Aug. 22, 1914. He promptly responded by winning two tremendous victories, destroying the Russian armies of Samsonov (Battle of the Masurian Lakes) and Rennekampf (Battle of Tannenberg. In 1916 he was made commander-in-chief of the German armies and established an almost impregnable trench-defense system (the Siegfried Stellung), on the western front. At war's end he retired again, but re-emerged in 1925 when he was elected president of Germany, which office he held until his death, Aug. 2, 1934. He is buried at Tannenberg.
