Mrs, Benoni’s fingers flew about
per own pie as Gloria fumbled be-
U her at the table. “Watch me
and do exactly as 1 do,” the older
woman instructed. The = apples
were ready and she rolled out her
dough with delicate, quick strokes.
«Light, light, as if you were strok
ing silk,” she warned. Mrs, Benoni
diced her lemon very thin, so that
there was merely a suspicion of
ovely yellow crescents lying on
top of the sliced, cannamoned ap
les.
P Now dot the top crust with
putter,” she ordered. “Real butter,
mind, not margarine, Then you
lay the crust on—so—and dust
lightly with melted butter and
amon—so.
C‘r}-‘l-xmbrosia. fit for Zeus himself,”
murmured Gloria, awed. :
Mrs. Benoni eyed her suspi
cously. “I thought you said your
husband’s name was Mil—"
«_‘tiades,” finished Gloria. “He
was ouly a ‘Greek general but
geus was the Big Sneeze, He lik
ed to shoot off lightning bolts and
have ambrosia for breakfast.”
“Oh, cereal,” said Mrs. Benoni.
Just then the phone rang. “Did
[ ever get my hands in dough that
that darn phone didn't ring? Put
your pie in the oven, dearie. I'll
#inish mine in a minute.” She hur
ried to answer telephone,
“Hello, Benny? Yes, it came. I
haven't opened it yet because Mrs.
Brown is here making a pie—Mrs.
Brown, you know, the blonde from
next door—for heaven’s sake, how
did T know?” Gloria squirmed un=
comfortably, wishing the telephone
wasn't in the vestibule right next
4 the kitchen so she wouldn’t
have to listen. Was Mr. Benoni
angry because his wife had invited
per in here? But Gloria couldn’t
very well leave till the pie was
done. Oh, dear! *No, no, Benny!”
Mrs, Benoni screamed into the
phone. “He couldn’. for six months

not come home till after datgk,
Sure, I will. Be eareful, Benny.”

A very sirange conversation to
have with one’s husband over a
at, Gloria was thinking when
s, Benoni went by the kitchen
oor like one of Zeus's own thun
derbolts, snatched up the hews
paper lying on the dining room
able, tearing a page in her eager
ness. Her hands trembled as she
ead and her face was very white
and Gloria, leelil;ng uncomfortable,
pened and closed the oven door
to remind her hostess tactfully that
he was still there, But when Mrs.
Benoni came back into the kitchen
she had pulled herself together
and thera was decision in her eyes
and two little red spots in her
theeks,
“Why don’t you go wash your
ands while I pop my pie in?” she
urged Gloria. “No, not that bath
room. Go through the lavatory
at the far end of the apartment,
flearie. It has clean towels.”

b“'i‘l}?esls' .
_The lavatory was done in bright
pink tile and the towels so lavgish
with lace Gloria hated to use
them; but she ran the water, obe
diently rumpled one of the movie
prop towels, and started back, but
the door wouldn’t open. She
turned the knob again. It must
be stuck; but when she pulled with
all her strength, the door still
‘'wouldn’t budge. “It’s locked on
‘the outside!” A kind of panic came
over her and she called, “Mrs.
Benoni! Open the door, please”
and when there was no answer,
she pounded on the pink door. It
finally opened so suddenly she al
most fell through.
“Darn that lock,” Mrs. Benoni
ejaculated, pushing up the little
gadget so that Gloria could see
‘what had happened. “It falls
down. I forgot to tell you to shut
the door easy. You look pale,
dearie. You must have a glass of
nice wine before you go.”
She was so concerned, so pat
iently once more the hospitable
neighbor that Gloria felt ashamed
for getting so childishly hysterical.
After all, any lock might get
‘temperamental.
The wine in thin glasses an d
the crisp little wafers were so de
licious. Gloria sipped a disgraceful
amount and before she realized it,
both pies came out of the oven,
browned, heavenly fragrant, de
lectable; except that Mrs. Benoni’s
pie was almost twice as big as
Gloria’s.
* # #
Gloria, thrilled, broke off a tiny
morsel of her own crust and it
melted in her mouth like a snow=-
flake in July.
“You're wonderful! It’s marvel
ous!” she cried and flung her arms
impulsively about Mrs. Benoni’s
neck, murmuring dizzily, “My first
pie and my first friend in this
great city!” 2
“You're welcome,” said Mrs. Be
noni, disentangling herself. *I
shouldn’t have given you that last
glass of wine.” She propelled
Gloria, plus pie, gently toward the
front door.
She put the pie in the middle of
the living room table where Mil
tiades would see it the minute he
opened the door and fell across
her bed for a little nap, and when.
she woke up, it was afternoon. She
lay there, deliciously drowsy,
wondering what it was Mrs. Be
noni had found so upsetting on
Page 7. Miltiades always took the
morning paper with him to read
on the subway and anyway she
was sure it had not been the big
dignified morning paper that Mrs.
Benoni had been reading because
of the number of pictures on the
back page; when one went out to
buy a dinner suitable to go with
the magnificent pie, one might get
an early edition of an afternoon

By EDWARD S. KITCH
AP Newsfeatures
CHICAGO—DModern furniture is
becoming more popular ~ with
homemakers, but traditional de
signs are giving it stiff competi
tion.
The home furnishings market
center displayed more of the sleek
and colorful contemporary furni
ture than at any other buyers’
show. Many manufacturers are
making modern designs for . the
first time.
The designers say it's because
they have their eyes on better
living for Americans. They ex
pressed their views during an open
panel discussion on style trends in
home furnishings.
Despite their efforts, however,
there’s a battle going on between
public acceptance of modern and
its buying of traditional.
It’s a sort of three-way con
flict, with designers on one side
and manufacturers on the other.
The home furnisher is in the mid
dle. He tries to give the public
' what he thinks it wants.
| The manufacturer is doubtful
about producing the new furniture
fashions. His reason is economic,
He wants to sell what he pro
duces. So he sticks to lines prov
ing good turnover for the local
| stores.
. George Nelson, of New York,
modern furniture designer, be
llieves the manufacturer should
make modern furniture and the
’ home furnisher should stock it. He
said:
“l don't think the designer
| should act as a wet nurse for the
public. Familiarty with design
has little to do with taste. But it
does have to do with whether the
newly designed chair can be used.”
Russell Wright, of New York,
designer of contemporary home
furniture, emphasizes the practi
cality of living. He says it is on
the increase. He has definite
ideas on informal modern modes.
1t is part of his plan for an easier
way of living. He and his wife are
| writing a book about it. On the
| subiect of table settings, he said:
| “Where there are usually 138
| pieces required to serve four per
| sons, I would cut the number of
! serving pieces to 48. I would elim
inate such unnecessaries as saucers
{for cups.”
Ben Rose, of New York, is a
| fabric designer. He says there is
| more multi-purpose cloth being
| produced to simvlify interior de
| corating demands.
1 Edwin Cole, stylist of traditional
| furniture and lamps at Eagle, Wis,,
said there is an overall demand for
'modem furnishings that can’t be
| denied. But there has been a vast
| improvement in traditional taste,

too, he said. Cole formerly de
signed modern exclusively.
He said he is critical of what is
beiqg shown to home furnishers,
adding:
“It's because we don't create
what the public wants or needs,
1 don’t believe we should impose
new designs on the public.”
Tokvo Rebounds,
Boyle Writes,
After War Scars
BY HAL BOYLE
TOKYO— (AP) —Five years
wrought a magical change in
“MacArthurville”—which is just
one nickname for Charlie Hiro
hito’s old home town.
The industrious Japanese have
done much more to reconstruct
their capital than the Germans
have with Berlin.
Of course, it is much easier to
rebuild a wooden city than one
made of stone, brick and steel.
But it is also hard to escape the
conclusion that the Japanese have
put more heart and muscle into
the task than have the Germans.
One reason probably is that they
are less overwhelmed by
the disaster of defeat. They take
solid, stolid pride in the belief
they are still the fir§t nation of
the Orient.
Whatever the reason, Tokyo
wears a bright new face today. In
great areas gutted by fire bombs
in 1945 you now have to look hard
to find the scars of war. The phys~
ical progress is almost unbeliev
able to one who saw Tokyo ruined
and prostrate just five short years
ago.
It is incredibly alive and boom
ing. It is a beehive, busy by day
and a garden of exotic Neon color
at night. The prewar replacement
of old Japanese customs by west
ern ways has been dramatically
speed up.
Five years ago the streets were
filthy and the people hungry and
in rags. Today the debris has all
been removed. The people look
healthy and better fed. Vehicles
swarm everywhere — bicycles,
American cars and a growing
number of shiny new Japanese
made automobiles — and the
parking problem is as bad as it is
in almost any American city. In
four days here I have seen only
one horse drawn wagon and three
man-pulled rickshaws.
Department stores and the can
vas covered open air stalls along
the famous Ginza are stocked with
every kind of merchandise. And
there must be plenty of yen around
as they are packed with shoppers.
American style products are in
particular demand.
“You ought to see the way Jap
anese women are snapping up
falsies,” said one American wo
man. “They all seem to want to
wear them — and goodness knows
most of them need to.
But for some reason she ap
pered annoyed at the eagerness
with which Japanese feminine
hood is embracing this facct of
American culture. Just why I
don’t know.
I am no judge as to the general
quality of Japanese goods but it
appears to be pretty good. At
least a $5 mickey mouse watch I
bought here is still running after
four days — and it hasn’t lost
more than a couple of minutes a
day.
Against this T must put the per
formance of a new Swiss portable
typewriter I brought here from
New York. It broke down before
I could finish writing “now is the
time for all good men to come to
the aid of Korea.” But Japanese
repairmen fixed it in less than 10
minutes.
I don’t suppose this proves any
thing at all — except maybe that
I am too ignorant to fix my own
typewriter. But I don't think any
one who saw Tokyo in 1945 and
then came back and saw it as it
is today could ever make the mis
take of underrzting the Japanese
people. They bounce.

Chicago Is First U. S. Sife.
For Infernational Trade Fair
By JACK HARR
NEA Staff Correspondent ‘
CHICAGO-—For two weeks this
summer, Chicago will become a
olobal market place for at least
43 nations.
The International Trade Fair,
being held in the United States
for the first time, is bringing a
constant stream of goods to Chi
cago from all over the world,
ranging from nuts and bolts to
exotic perfumes and wines. Four
great halls—Navy Pier, the Chi
cago Arena, the International
Amphitheatre, and the Coliseum—
will contain the thousands of ex
hibits from August 7 to the 20th.
Trade fairs have precedents go
ing way back into Biblical days,
but the idea has {raditionally
been a European one. The great
annual fairs are still the cus
tom in cities such as Paris, Lyon,
Milan, Leipzig, and Barcelona.
The gesponse of exhibiting na
tions to such a fair in the U. S.
has been so overwhelming that
Chicago businessmen who
launched the plan want to make
it a yearly affair. The most likely
set-up will be a “grand -circuit
tour” with the fair rotating each
year through major U. S. cities.
First Trade Fair
This first American trade fair is
unique in more than one respect.
It is the first one not under gov
ernment subsidy. Usually a mon
ey-losing proposition, non-profit
trade fairs in other countries have
fallen back on the government,
but in this case the fair's backers
are standing behind it.
This will also be the first time
the pullic will be allowed a
glimpse of the world’s products
all arrayed in one place at one
time. Previously, these interna
tional fairs have been strictly
Scientists Use
Simulate Wreck
BY ROBERT GOLDSTEIN
AP Newsfeatures
EVANSTON, 111. — There was a
gusty ecross-wind and the pilot
was coming in fast. Cautiously,
he nosed his heavy four engine
plane toward the narrow landing
strips and started setting her
down.
Without warning the wind shift
ed, throwing him badly off course.
He slammed at the controls. Too
sharp and too fast. The big plane
crashed.
So he tried again.
This time, when the wind hit,
he cut her back more slowly. But
he was too slow. He missed the
strip and plowed into a hangar.
So he kept on trying until he
had it just right.
Tries Wrecking a Car
Satisfied, he turned to new
problems. He ran a car over
rock-strewn roads at 60 miles an
hour to test the springs. He took
over the controls of a locomotive
to test the shimmy on sharp
curves at high speed.
He did all these things in a
few seconds.
No—this isn’'t a super man, a
‘Walter Mitty or a fugitive from a
flying saucer. It is any one of sev
eral scientists in the aerial meas
urements laboratory at Northwest
ern University.
They undergo these harrowing
experiences by analogy in their
search for the right answers to
complicated technical problems. A
massive electronic brain called
the Aeracom makes it possible.
Electronics Does The Trick
The machine is an electronic
analog computer that gives almost
instantaneous answers to intricate
problems fed to it electrically.
These problems may range from
engineering design to economics.
This is how the computer works.
On the airplane landing problem
the Aeracom operator first drafts
a series of mathematical equations
that represent all the factors in
volved—weight of the craft, its
speed, the pattern and velocity of
the winds, etc.
Then a solution is attempted by
analogy. Any equation in mathe
matics can be represented almost
exactly by a particular electric
circuit. So the equations are
plugged into the Aeracom in the
form of electric circuits.
The Aeracom operator next
simulates a landing on the basis
of how fast he believes the con
trols should be manipulated to
compensate for the treacherous
wind gust.
Quick on the Answer
He gets his answer almost in
stantaneously. It appears in graph
ical form on an oscilloscope which
resembles a television screen. If
he wants to make the plane turn
more quickly or slowly, he merely
adjusts a dial on the Aeracom.
Other adjustable dials represent
wind velocity and the other fac
tors involved in the problem.
Problems or conditions can be
changed at will and the answer
always pops out on the screen.
These answers need only to be
interpreted to be understood.
This kind of data is needed be
fore automatic pilots can safely
bring planes in for landings.
Similarly, in the automobile trip
over the bumpy roads the Aera
com operator caw get a quick ans
wer on what kind of springs and
shock obsorbers are needed for the
smoothest ride under various road
conditions and speeds. For all
practical purposes, the size of the
bumps or rigidity of the springs
can be altered simply by twisting
bhyer-seller markets with a lot
of business taking place after the
buyers examine the sample mer
chandise.
And the Chicago trade exposi
tion has. a behind-the-scenes
meaning which may go a long
way in solving the economic dif
ficulties of the world. Its target
is the critical “dollar gap” prob
em.
Jacques Kunstenaar, director of
foreign affairs for the exposition,
points out that more precducts are
going out of the Ul S. than are
coming in; more dollars are com
ing in than are going out. The
Department of Commerce places
exports at 12 billions and imports
at only 6.6 billions.
Dollar Gap
The difference is the dollar gap
which is steadily draining the
buying power of foreign nations.
The Marshall Plan, filling the gap
at the moment, expires in 1952.
Unless something is done to stim
ulate American buying of foreign
goods, warns Kunstenaar, we are
in for trouble.
The backers of the first Amer
ican trade fair think they have at
least a partial answer. The pro
motional value of trade fairs in
stimulating business has been
proved time ‘and time again in
Europe.
1f the old formula will work in
a new setting, if the thousands of
American buyers who come to
the trade fair place cnough or
ders for foreign goods, then a ma
jor step toward cutting the dollar
gap will have been taken, the
promoters of the fair claim,
And the continued appearance
of the fair in the U. 8. will pro
long this partial solution of the
world’s trade troubles.

The analog-computer cost
$250,000 to develop and build and
weighs more than 10 tons. It was
built by Westinghouse Electric
Corp., and Northwestern universi
ty students and is owned by the
U. S. Navy's bureau of aeron
autics.
It is a cousin to the digital type
computers that quickly lick com
plicated mathematical problems
ordinarily requiring years of cal
culations.
The Northwestern computer is
operated under the diregtion of
Dr. John F. Calvert, chairman of
the department of electrical engi
neering and director of the labor
atory, and James C. McAnulty,
technical director.
R. H. Strotz, an instructor at
Northwestéern, and N. F. More
house, a student, already have
used the computer to work out
intricate theoretical problems in
economics.
Latest theory of giraffe evolu

through the necessity for reaching
upward into treetops for food, but
through having to stretch down

" ATLANTA, July 22—~(AP) =
Jhere’'s something known =g
sweating it out on tk‘e home froni
too.
And with the sweat comes thg
chill: “It's Banzai, by God, all over
again.,”
For five years you have put
some thoughts into the pigeon
holes of your mind to gather dust,
Crumble and blow away: The stut
ter of machine guns, the crump of
_mortars and the slam of the “Long
Toms.” The crack of rifles and
your-face in the mud.
It was gone, forgoiten and now
. ...Well, here’s where every
mother’s son who fought in the pa=-
cific in World War II came in.
Tom Lambert writes from
“gsomewhere in Korea:”
War Of Nuease %
“This is a war of stealth and
deception, trickery and subterfuge.
it is a war of unease. You neyer
know who is the enemy ~.”
From Tokyo headquarters a
spokesman chimes: “North Korean
troops don’t surrender easily be
cause they will be killed.”
A Lieutenant sweats wearily
through a story of wounded,
massacred on their bunks.
The correspondents write of fine
atical, screaming charges by hordet
of North Koreans, fed the wpap
that they are fighting in a glorious
cause,
Banzai? “Ten thousand lives: for
the Emperor!” Remember?
Infiltration at night. You Heked
that problem with passwords and
perimeter defense, Every squad a
pillbox. Stay in your hoie and, by
god, shoot anything that moves.
You kill a lot of goats; civilians,
too, maybe, but you discourage in
filtration.
And remember, you machine
gunners, your aiming stakes, your
grazing fire . . .Guadalcanal, Bou
gainville, Saipan, and so on down
to Okinawa.
Learned Hard Way
You learned these things th€
hard way. Don’t take prisoners un
less you make Jem strip first. Make
‘em raise their arms—just in case
they've got grenades in their arm
pits. Never tirn you your back on
an able bodied man or woman.
Who knows?
The stories tell of a sergeant
sick on green cucumbers. You
learned that the hard way, too,
with belly aches and dysenfery.
Cook everything, boil everything
and if you can’t, stick to your re
tions.
There are patrols, the stories sav
and ambushes. You licked that one,
too. with a few brave men willing
to stick their.noses into the mouth
of hell itself.
They prowled boldly into noeoks
and corners, cut their way throueh
the jungle. Many died but in dving
they forced the enemy to disclose
their positions and so saved the
bulk of their patrols. -
Now their are new guys out
there, learning the way you did,
the hard way and sometimes : the
lessan is fatal, but the survivors
profit by the experience.
So now you are soft. Your old
uniform doesn’t fit and it is paint
spattered besides. -
All you can do is ery 2 little bit
inside, because you didn’t get a
chance to tell these kids that
“Banzai” can be licked and how.
