' Fu inion Poll, Call
* Europeans, In Opinion Poll, Ca
~ USS Most “Warlike And
Aggressive”
BY PETER EXI SON
NEA Washingten Correspondent
WASHINGTON.—(NEA)—Not all the polls being
taken this year have to do with who's going to be
the next U. 8. President. International public opin
ion sampiers have been beating the bushes overseas
to find out what Europeans really think of America,
American foreign policy, themselves and of Russia.
United States Educational, Scientific and Cultu-
ral Organization—UNESCO—ran something called
an International Tensions Project. It showed a list
~ of 12 adjectives to representative people in nine
foreign countries and asked them to pick out the
~ words that best characterized other nations, and
i themselves.
Ev The European majorities regarded themselves as
T “Brave, Intelligent, Peace-loving.” The Americans
~ wene characterized primarily as “Practical, Pro
gressive and Generous,” but also as “Materialistic,
i Self-centered, Nervous.” Ruscia was characterized
< as the most “Warlike” and “Aggressive” except by
% C--rmunist sympathizers, who put Russia first as
A “22ace-loving.”
“nternational Public Opinion Research, Inc, ran
i « 2cre detailed and specific poll on European atti
tv 2s towards U. S. foreign policy objectives.
¥ 't showed West Europeans did not regard Amer
© i:a policies with complete trust. British, West
~ Ccrman and Swedish people were found to be much
~ Iwre pro-U. 8. in their views than Frenchmen and
It-lians. Fewer than 10 percent of the people inter
viewed in gll these countries said they"‘mistrusted”
’f the U. S., however. . . i
;E;L Seventy-four percent of the British and West
- Cermans, 68 percent of the Swedes felt the U. S. !
. was doing everything it could to prevent war. But
only 31 percent of the Italians thought so. Fifty-six
" poercent of the Italians still felt that Allied bomb
"~ inss in their country during World War II were un
“. nciessary, militarily. ;
~ “ZURPRISE” COMING IN AIR DEFENSE TEST
; U. S. Air Foree insists that its joint exercise with
~ the Royal Canadian Air Force to test North Amer
* iran air defenses is going to be a big “surprise” to
. the 250.000 watchers and spotters involved, although
s a press release has been issued telling all about it.
. ‘' he mraneuver has even been given a name—
~ “Cueration Signpost.” And the dates have been an
. ncunced—July 19 to 27.
i siill, the Air Defense Command under General
+ Benjamin Chidlow is making all its plans under
tizht security wraps, and won't talk about the de
. tails,
: “Aggressor” planes will try to “invade” and
“bomb” the U. S. over pre-detemx‘metf but unan-_
. nounced routes. Army Anti-Aircraft Command,
radar units and control centers in the civilian
?" Ground Observer Corps will all be given a workout
*. in the biggest maneuver of its kind since World War
; 11. But it’s secret.
SENATE OUT OF ORDER ‘
The Senate got itself all tangled up in parlia
mentary procedure when it came to voting on half
a dozen different proposals for handling the steel
strike.
Senator Byrd of Virginia Lad a simple resolution
j;;s requesting President Truman to use the Taft-Hart
© ley law. Senators Morse of Oregon, Humphrey of
~~ Minnesota, Monroney of Oklahoma and then Morse
« again offered substitutes authorizing various forms
= .of seizure,
© » It was all very confusing. One reporter cracked,
. “If they ever get out of this mess, I'd like to know.”
: Vice President Barkley explained the situation in
! this simple, 75-word sentence:
“Any senator who offers an amendment to the
i Byrd amendment may modify his own amendment,
; whereas another senator could not do so, because
‘i such a modification were offered by another sen
ator, it would be in the form of an amendment in
. the third degree, whereas if an amendment to the
Byrd amendment were modified by its own author,
the modification would not be in the form of an
amendment in the third degree.” r
After about 10 minutes of wrangling over that
one, Senator Matthew Neely of West Virginia rose
: to make a parliamentary inquiry. “Would it be in
order,” he said, “to ask unanimous consent that the
Senate proceed to the transaction of business.”
" CONGRESS’ ECONOMY BLOC ON SPOT
Air Force Association, the most active civilian
. organization of ex-fly boys and aviation industry
~ representatives, is pressuring the Senate to increase
. Air Force appropriations from S2O billion to $25
; billion for next fiscal year,
: The House-passed Air Force appropriation bill
now before the Senate cuts Air Force funds fromy
. the requested S2O billion to sl9 billion,
Senator Lyndon Johnson’s jreparedness subconr
mittee report, emphasizing inadequacy of U, 8. Air
Force and its inferiority to Russtan airpower, comes
. just at the time to support the drive for more plane
money. !
Senator Robert A. Taft's political campaigning for
" a bigger Air Force also puts the economy bloc in
. Congress on the spot to apprcpriate more money or
i+ else keep still about American alr weakness.

Rising Population Makes
.
Conservation Necessary
With the passing of every twenty-four hours
there are 7,000 persons added to the population of
the United States.
These additions to our already adequate popula
tion pose somrething of a problem. Crowded educa
tional plants have been in the news constantly in
the past few weeks and months, but the food prob
lem is one that is no less serious.
With the advent of 7,000 persons every day, it is
common logic that food must be provided for them.
By simple arithmetic we come to the conclusion
that 21,000 additional meals are necessary each day.
Taken on a monthly scale, it is necessary to feed
210,000 more people each month or a total of 630,-
000 meals.
This problem of more mouths to feed is no light
one. Pointed out to the American public and to the
farming element of the population, the problem
may be solved with ease, The problem, when an
alyzed, is one of conservation, pure and simple.
In the words of conservation-wise persons, wé
have only so much land to feed our population,
Added productivity is the onuly answer to the food
supply needs. Fertilizer helps to boost yields, but
does no permanent good unless sound conservation
practices are used.
In times of war and strife population trends us
ually go up. It is histery that United States popula
tion figures soared during the last war anad are
liable to mount again with the hurried marriages
and war-time romances of the Korean conflict.
It is a source of comfort to statisties-conscious
persons to realize that Georgia farmers are taking
advantage of soil conservation methods and are
utilizing every effort to up *he yield of farmlands
and insure the future food supply in our country
and the world,
It is through the concerted efforts of such gov
ernment agencies as the Federal Soil Conservation
Agency and the Production and Marketing Admin
istration that the valuable work of soil saving is
being carried on.
The American and Georgia farmer’s most plen
tiful commodity has alway been his will to find a
way of surmounting his diffiiculties and it is
through the wise use of the farmer’s “know-how”
augmented with government aid and scientific
farming methods that we may feel assured of a
continued prosperity.
. The horn of plenty is never empty in this lan
?Gi'{)urs, but a perific checkeup an&yg‘?'evitalinfilg:
of férming methods is never superfluous.
Through the efforts of our farmers and agricul
tural experts our food supply will continue ade
quate for all our people.
Application of Southern Airways, only airline
serving Athens, for renewal of its operating license
is now before the Civil Aeronautics Board.
Renewal of licenses generally is based upon the
service being rendered by the air line and its neces
sity to the communities it serves. The CAB can give
renewal for three years, five, ten, or pergnanently,
There is not the slightest doubt as to the import~
ance of Southern Airways, not alone to Athens, but
to the other points it serves And that service, if
renewal is granted, is to be expanded by addition
of other routes.
Needless to say, a city the size of Athens is very
dependent upon air service, both in the matter of
passengers and mail and it would be a blow to this
community if this service is lost, as Mayor Jack R.
Wells and Chamber of Commerce Secretary Mal
colm Ainsworth told representatives of the CAB at
the recent hearing held in Birmingham, Ala.
It is certainly to be hoped that Southern will be
enabled to continue the superior service it has
given the cities along its route and that all citizens
will take whatever action becomes necessary to
assure continuation of the service.
Paul W. Walker, chairman of the Federal Com
munications Commission, is pressing the nation’s
educators to act promptly to take up the 242 chan
nels-set aside for educational purposes, In the cur
rent issue of the National Education Association
Newsletter Mr. Walker writes:
“This is American education’s year of decision.
What you do this year may determine for a long,
long time, perhaps for generations, the role of edu
cation in television. The time to act is now. If tele
vision does not have No. 1 priority on your agenda
fromr now on, then the end of this fateful year may
see educational television a lost cause.”
This position seems unreasonably peremptory,
The commission took its own sweet time about re
suming the assignment of channels. But now every
body must step along smartly, ready or not. A de
cision which Mr, Walker admits may extend its in
fluence for generations must be taken this year, he
Insists,
Mr. Walker warns that channel assignments can
not be reserved indefinitely. But they can be re
served for a reasonable time, Because it must be
noncommrercial, the cost of building and operating a
state-wide chain of educational stations must be
borne by the taxpayers, and the cost will be con
siderable. Educational TV raises numerous. ques
tions, other than financial, which must be explored.
Taxpayers have a right to expect their educa
tional policymakers to proceed with caution, They
have a right to expect that FCC policy on educa
tional station assignments will conform to public
necessity. 1
I do blame the government for falling to lay down
a standard of equity and justice transcending the
selfish concerns of individual pressure groups.—
Bernard Baruch on the steel dispute,
