You certainly recall the vocifemus squawking done last year by Congress and other wellmeaning citizens about the horrors of television. Although a convenient line of reasoning, it always seemed to this observer just another way of evading home-grown responsibility for juvenile delinqency and crime. When a need for a whipping boy is sensed, a w’hipping boy will be found. And television, assuredly not blameless in its tasteless and crude dramatic sequences, took its share of lashes as a prime mover in delinquency. This phenomenon struck me as inconsistent then. It does now. When the possibilities of television—so vast, so beneficial— are ignored; when the entertainment and educational elements are muffed beneath shrill cries of horror, violence and mayhem, doesn’t it indicate a one-sided and wilful distortion ot the picture? And this is as good a place as any to apply Mrs. Catherine Kreitzer’s quotation from Philippians. as she declined the $64,000 Bible question—“let your moderation be known unto all men.” Too much television can be just as harmful as too many chocolate sodas or loo much reading or too much hard work.

They usually clutter up the car and provide little entertainment for excited youngsters. Treats like candy, popcorn, and gum, are a help if stored in the glove compartment and doled out with discretion. To avoid frequent stops for drinks, take along a big thermos of cold watei or carbonated drink, along with plenty of paper cups. There are a lot of good ways to divert their attention from the fact that they are condemned to sit in one place for hours at a stretch. Little children who haven’t traveled much will enjoy having the unusual sights along the road pointed out to them. And they like to play games like the one where each child counts the number of cows on his side of the road, and the one who gets the most cows in a certain time gets a prize.

Special tofCcntral Press Association TtryASHINGTON—Crime' has always been a major problem to W Federal Bureau of Investigation but now FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover says it’s “a distinct threat” to “the security and well-being
Of the United States.”
Unfortunately, ^says Hoover, many robberies, burglaries and larceny cases are being committed by young people—“boys and girls who v S should be training to be our leaders of tomorrow.” | Now the FBI chief warns: “The time has come j/tor every American to stop and ‘take stock’ of line serious situation. Crime thrives on our mistakes,

Mr. Eisenhower’s irritation reportedly stems from the fact that on the basis of information he had at the tint#, he told a news conference that Adolphe Wenzell “was never called in or asked a single thing about the Dixon-Yates contract.” Obviously, the chief executive was ill-informed, for it Inter developed that Wenzell did play quite an active role in the Dixon-Yates deal.

# ELECTIONS—Democratic politicians arc confident that their partj can retain control of Congress in next year’s election even if President Eisenhower seeks a second term and wins re-election.

The year 1923 found Chians; Kai-shek, now chief of the Chinese army’s education department, in Moscow where he acted as military observer. Meanwhile, the C hinese army was beins; ably trained with assistant e of G< rmun officers.
Pretty, petite Soong Mei-ling, sister of the wife of Dr. Sun Yat-sen. became C'hiang Kai-shek's bride. Educated in the United States, she adhered to the Christian faith and’ through her Chiang Kai-shek became a Christian convert.
China entered a period of travail following the death of Dr. Sun Yat-sen in 1925. Bandit leaders and ambitious warlords launched attacks on each other and against peaceful provinces and the ancient nation was plunged into chaos.
Determined to end such an intolerable condition, Chiang Kai-shek was made generalissimo of the Chinese national revolutionary army. The new marshal immediately launched his so-called “Northern campaign,” intended to crush all outlaw force#.
