* ROME—Signor Neri, who is of
almost no importance except that
there are millions like him in Italy
and Europe, thinks there will be
no war soon.
“You know why?” he asked.
“Because old men do’'not go to
war—not if they can help it.”
Signor Neri, old himself, but
still the main support of a family
of five children, makes about $55
a month acting as liaison man
between Italian plumbing and a
couple of American families. He
paused in his task of adjusting a
bathroom. floater and said:
“Stop and think—nearly every
body who ever started a war was
a handsome young guy; somebody
who thought he.could win in a
hurry and cash in on the glory.
Today’s Leaders Are Wise
“Look at the world’s leaders to
day. Sure, they could start some
thing, but they know they prob
ably wouldn’'t be there at the
finigh.
“Besides, nearly all of them
have been through it—they got a
good idea what it’s like.”
“Look at Baffone”—ltalian af
fectionate or derisive for Stalin,
meaning “Mustache” — “He’s 72,
anyway, and not too well, from
what I read in the papers.
Look at Churchill—even older,
77. All of them—Truman, Eisen
hower, Adenauer, De Gasperi—all
of them over 60 and most of them
around 70.”
“The ones who went to war in
the past were pretty young,” said
Signor Neri, “look them up and
you’ll see.”
History Proves the Pcint
A check showed they were.
Alexander the Great was only
22 when he crossed the Hellespont
with 30,000 men to begin one of
the greatest continuous marches
in history. He was only 33 when
he died of a fever in 328 B. C.
Julius Caesar lived to be 58
(comparatively ripe old age in
those days) before daggers cut
him down at the foot of Pompey’s
statue. He was only 30 when he
became Military Tribune of Rome.
Napoleon, with the life expec
tancy index climbing up, lived to
be 62, sitting out his later years,
on the Island of Saint Helena. But
he was only 35 and full of vic
tories when, on Dec. 2, 1904, he
took the crown from the hands of
Pope Pius VII and, setting it on
his own head, declared himself to
be Emperor of the French.
Kaiser at 55 Was Old
William Hohenzollern, the Kai
ser of Germany, was comparative
ly old—ss—when he and his gen
erals started World War I.
Adolf Hitler was 50 when he
blitzed into Poland in 1939 to be
gin svhat was to become World
War 11.
Mussolini was pretty old as
war-starters go by the time he
was hung up by the heels at a
Milan service station. -He was
then 62. But he was only 52 when
the thirst for glory persuaded him
to send Italian troops and bom
bers into Ethiopia.
“You see,” said Signor Neri, old
ones don’t start wars—not if they
can help it.”
He smiled with pleasure at the
thought.
HONEST WOMAN
RICHLAND, Wash.—(AP)—lf
Diogenes is looking for an honest
woman, let him cast his lamp on
Mrs. F. O. Perkins.
She was walking in front of a
theater when she saw a fairly
well-upholstered money bag. She
opened it. It had $69.55 In cur
rency and change. She called po
lice.
A vending machine company
operator later claimed it — and
said the contents were intact, right
down to the last cent.

Kaiyn Forest Massacre—War's No. 1 Mystery—
Who ruthlessly murdered 11,000 Polish officers
in Katyn Forest, near Smolensk, Russia, in 1939
or 1941? A few days ago, a masked Polish “mys
tery” witness told a special House subcommittee
investigating the atrocity, that he and two fel
low-fugitives from a Russian POW camp had
watched Russian soldiers do the killing in Octo
ber, 1939. As shown in.the artist’s conception
above, the witness hid in a treetop. In the grue
some scene he described, Russian soldiers
marched some 200 Polish officers along a sud
denly illuminated pathway through the night=
darkened woods to the edge of a huge pit, pos
sibly a quarter of a block in area. There, most of
the prisoners, hands tied behind their backs,
were coldly shot in the back of the head. Many
other were still alive when thrown into the
grave. These strangled on handfuls of sawdust
State And District
Presidents
Visit Local Club
The Athens Woman’s Club had
the pleasure recently of present
ing to their members Mrs. T. A.
Maxwell. of Augusta, State Presi
dent of the Georgia Federation of
Women’s Clubs and Mrs. E. D.
Clary, of Harlem, President of the
Tenth District.
The luncheon table at the Elks
Club was beautifully decorated
with early Spring flowers and
home grown camellias given to the
guests of honor. also added a de
corative note. The usual opening
exercises, over which the presi
dent, Mrs. R. L. O’Kelley presided,
were followed by the presentation
of the State President by Mrs. J.
W. Bailey, a long time friend of
Mrs. Maxwell, who had served the
State Federation as Tenth District
President, also as State tretsurer.
These two positions have given to
Mrs. Maxwell a thorough know
ledge of the work of the Woman’s
Clubs of Georgia, so she is well
qualified to fill capably her high
position of trust and honor. She
told of the creditable rank main
tained by Georgia, in comparision
with other States, which serves as
an incentive to reach or even ex
cell that high standard of work
accomplished in the past.
In addition to the great work
being accomnlished at the Tallulah
Falls School, of which Dr. J. C.
Rogers is the President, work is
carried on through the American
Home Department; Comrmunica
tions, Motion Pictures, Press and
Publicity, Radio anc Television:
Education; Fine Arts; 'Tnternation~
al Clubs: Legislation. Public Af
fairs: Safety; Welfare; Youth Con
servation and Conservation of
Natural Resources. Mrs. Clary
told of the system of working with
these departments through the
District chairman, who send their
reports to her through their Club
presidents, these are clipped, and
sent on to the State chairmen,
who then compile a report of gen
eral State activities for the Year
Book. From the Headquarters of
the General Federation 1734 N.
Street N. W., Washington, D. C,,
can be gotten a most helpful selec
tion of literature on any one of
these Departments, just for the
asking. With the studies and ac
tivities so varied, it can readily be
seen how the objective of Mrs.
Maxwell. “Preserving our Ameri
can Heritage” can well be realized.
The meeting was adjourned at
the luncheon table, and heartfelt
appreciation was expressed to our
leaders for coming to us.

THE BANNER-HERALD, ATHENS, GEORGIA
that had been crammed in their mouths, the wit
ness said.. But the full story of the Katyn Forest
killings has never come to light. The Germans
captured Smolensk in July, 1941. In April, 1943,
Nazi Propaganda Minister Goebbels said that
German troops had unearthed the bodies and he
charged that they were victims of the Russian
OGPU. But in 1944, the Russians said they had
proof that the Germans committed the crime in
August and September, 1941. They took a party
of American correspondents to the scene, where
they were shown the graves and more than 700
of the bodies, on some of which Russian medical
men were performing autopsies. Now Russia has
another chance to refute the masked witness’
story. Rep. Ray J. Madden, of Indiana, chairman
of the House subcommittee, has issued an invita
tion to the Soviet to tell its version.

Coeds Still Scrafch
Names On Window
Panes At Lucy Cobb
Times may change but coeds
don’t. ;
At least that is the situation at
the University of Georgia. The
coeds of 1952 are keeping up one
practice that their predecessors
started almost a century ago.
Their predecessors, of course,
weren't: coeds. They were young
ladies who attended Athens’ fam
ous Lucy Cobb Institute.
In 1860 the first Lucy Cobb bel
les used their diamond rings to
scratch their names and the date
on the Institute’s window panes.
The practice is still going strong
today, the immediate result being
that onl%r the most inacessible
panes still remain untouched.
Some of the names are mute re
minders of the fact that many of
Georgia's most famous women
were Lucy Cobb students. Others
are less well-known but mean
moreto University students today.
Just this year one Georgia coed
found her mother's name and the
date 1911 scratched plainly on the
parlor window. She promptly
added her name to the pane’s
collection.
ELEPHANT FUTURE DEBATED
LEOPOLDVILLE, Belgian Con
go.— (AP) —Should the Belgian
Congo’s estimated 100,000 ele
phants be killed or protected?
This question is now the object
of a quarrel between local offi
cials and elephant hunters on one
side and the local Association for
the Protection sos Nature on the
other side.
According to estimates from the
chief of the hunting services, some
585,000 elephants have been killed
since 1889 based on the number of
tusks traded. The Association for
the Protection of Nature is accus
ing the administration of tolerat
ing mass destruction of elephants,
Approximately 3,100 elephants
were killed in 1950.
The principal thoroughfare in
Oslo, Norway, is the Karl Johan,
named for a king whose statue
