Villian Revealed j At last something had happened

tha t could and did m a k e people un-ders tand what this Russ ian situa-tion was all about.

It had been pret ty difficult going for the world public to perce ive the bas ic truth when It was obscured by confusing c i r cums tances like cu r rency re fo rm In Berlin, control of the G e r m a n Ruhr , a m a z e of spies at home and political annihila-tion of smal l European nations by Russ i a .

What It all amounted to. as f a r as most people were concerned , was a m e s s of verba l pot tage that they wou ldn ' t t rade for the comics page any day of the week.

Ttien It happened . Mrs. Oksana Kosenkina, the Russ ian school t eacher , j u m p e d f r o m a third-s tory window in the Soviet consulate in New York to achieve the l iberty she so despera te ly sought.

Mikhail S a m a r i n . the other Rus-sian school t eacher , was wanted by the Russ ians but m a n a g e d to re ta in h i s f r eedom. Refus ing the Soviet m a n d that he- r e tu rn to Russ ia . He tossed this scallion for the Commu-nls t s Into the p r o p a g a n d a war : " I won ' t re turn to d e a t h . "

And finally. In England Olympic a th le tes f r o m Czechoslovakia and o the r Soviet sate l l i te s t a t e s were s t ead fa s t l y refus ing to re turn to the i r home count r ies aft«?r the i r t a s t e of a f r e e land.

It all added up to the biggest b reak the western nations have had ye t In their p r o p a g a n d a bat t le with the E a s L

T h t i was s imple , basic ,- u n d e r f t a n d a b l e : These people f rom the land of the Soviets—the schoolteach-e r s and a th le tes—utter ly despised the idea of r e tu rn ing . They simply would not do it.

Thus , it was in the end a fow o rd ina ry pe rsons who des t royed the e l a b o r a t e fabr ica t ion which Moscow had cons t ruc ted to r ep re sen t to the world the ideal way of life t h a t ex is ted In the Soviet Union.

One Voice of Amer i ca spokesman •a id : "Th i s If what we have been wai t ing for In our wa r of words . This is some th ing tha t can be easi ly unders tood by people all over the wor ld . "

The Communi s t* t r ied f ran t ica l ly So cover this brracfa In the i r cu r t a in b y call ing it, a m o n g o the r things, an underg round conspi racy In the U. S. to wreck any possibil i ty for p e a c e between the two nat ions .

Bu t the v i l la in ' s diajpjla* was. oft now a n a eve ryone *new h im. Try as they might , the Communi s t s nev-e r would be able to explain why two obscure school t e ache r s would seek t h e i r f r eedom a o despera te ly , nor w h y Russia was so de t e rmined to ge t them back.

PARLEY: Failure

F r o m Moscow came crushing newji for all those hoping for peace : The ta lks between the western de-m o c r a c i e s and Russia were report-ed to be on t he brinlr-rrf-flaliure.

Bar r ing a last-minute mi r ac l e 1n the confe rences between the U. S., Eng land . F r ance and Russ ia , the Eas t -West s t a l ema te would cont inue, along with the Soviet blockada of Ber l in .

It was reported that the western powers were get t ing re^dy to s t a y In Berlin under conditions of eco-nomic siege, planning to ma in ta in and enlarge the a i r lift to supply j t he 2.5 million persons In the i r ; sectors .

There was. however , one s l im chance that ut ter fa i lure could b e avoided. The three western ambas -sadors were scheduled for a Anal talk with P r e m i e r Stalin, and It was a possibility t h a t the negot ia-tions might be rescued. But t he odds aga ins t a g r e e m e n t s tood a t about five to one. officials said.

If the conference ended in the ant ic ipated fai lure, it was thought tha t the Big Four g o v e r n m e n t s , would try to conceal the ex ten t of* the fiasco from the public In o r d e r to avoid the even g rea te r degene ra -tion of East-West re la t ionships t h a t undoubtedly would resul t U e v e r y -one knew Just how hopeless the case was .

However, if the Moscow ta lks did break up in futility it would not m e a n necessar i ly tha t all s i m i l a r negotiat ions would be a b a n d o n e d . It would mean tha t any f u r t h e r ef-for t to reopen them would b e de-

BUDGETr U nbalnnced

Will there be a surplus or deficit In the gove rnmen t ' s bi/dgct at the end of this fiscal yea r?

It was a question good for a lot of political h a y m a k i n g , and both Pres iden t T r u m a n and his Republi-can opponents in congress went to work with a will.

Mr. T r u m a n ' s fo recas t was tha t the government would be 1.5 bO-lioh dollars in the red next J u n e . In his mid-year budge t report ha b l amed the Republ icans ' " i l l - t imed" flve-bilUon-dollar tax cut for put-ting the nation back In the hole.

Str icken with horror . G O P law-m a k e r s r apped back sha rp ly : F a r f r o m harbor ing a deficit, they sqld. the t r e a s u r y will close Its books next J u n e with a surplus of be-tween five and six billion dol lars .

The Pres ident had Juggled figures for polit ical campa ign effect, the Republ icans charged bi t ter ly .

"Another of the weird dis tor t ions which a r e coming from the White House while i ts occupan t is a nerv-ous cand ida te for re-elect ion," com-men ted Sen. Styles Bridges (Rep. , N. H.) mordacious ly .

Mr. T r u m a n had said that f ede ra l expend i tu res this yea r would hit 42 billion dollars, while Republ icans c l a im that ac tua l expenses will to-tal 38 billion. They charged, too, tha t the Pres ident had figured the nat ional Income 3.4 billion dollars too low for the year .

J u s t who was right In the ma t t e r . If anyone, was impossible to say. The en t i r e a f fa i r had many of the cha rac t e r i s t i c s of the kind of tem-pest In a teapot that is a run-of-the-a & ' e n c n t ih err election year .

Actually, even if Pres ident Tru-m a n ' s e s t ima te turns out to be the correc t one, the books still will show an " a d j u s t e d su rp lus . " despite the 1.5-blllion-dollar operat ing def ic i t That Is because congress provided t h a t t h r ee billion of the surplus las t y e a r should be shifted to this y e a r ' s accounts to help meet for-eign aid costs.

Las t March 10 J a n M a s a r y k . for-eign minis ter of Czechoslovakia unde r the Communis t reg ime, fell to his dea th f r p m a third-s tory win-dow In the foreign office In P r a g u e .

Since then Masa ryk ' s f r iends , a s well as m a n y who never knew him but admi red him because of his hopeless flght In behalf of Czecho-s lovak ia ' s nat ional l iberty, h a v e specula ted long as to whether h e commit ted suicide or was killed by the Communis t s who wanted h i m out of the way.

The official Communis t vers ion of the incident was suicide, bu t too m a n y persons had too m a n y doubts to let ft rest at t h a t

Then, suddenly, las t m o n \ b t h e doubts were crystal l ized. HT. Qafcar Klinger. Masa ryk ' s pe r sona l phys i -cian, asser ted that the Czech s t a t e s -m a n did not commi t suicide.

He was sure of t h a t he said, be-cause he and Masa ryk pla"***? to escape by plane to G r e a t B r i t a i n on the very day that Masa ryk died.

Klinger said tha t the secur i ty po-lice discovered M a s a r y k ' s plan to flee and c a m e to his rooms t h a t night to a r r e s t or kill him. Defend-ing himself , Masa ryk shot and killed possibly four men.

f e n t homemaker to' m e recently. "and DOW my linens need replenish-ing. But I'm not certain that I know Just how to buy them cor-rect ly ."

Contrary to opinion, brides are not the only ones buying linens to-day. Many a homemaker is seeing 10-year-old sheets (all Into ahreds at each laundering, while bath tow-e ls are developing holes In alarm-ing proportions.

Should the choice be muslin or percale sheets? What thread count Is best to select? B o w should the yarn count affect the choice of sheets? Row large should bath tow-e ls be? Are cotton or linen towels better for dishes? These are but a few of the bewildering questions a homemaker must be able to answer before she can make her cholcy.

Correctly Chosen Sheets Are Satisfying f

Decide on the best site before you ever get to the store to do your pur-chasing. Anyone who has ever been troubled by having sheets that are skimpy will realize the wisdom of this point. Beds are more comfort-able. eas ier to m a k e and stay well-m a d e longer if, there Is sufficient tuok-ln on all sides.

Har r ie t aighed as the las t note b e c a m e stilled. "Tha t was splendid. 6 a m , " she said. "I haven ' t ano the r pupil as ta lented as you a r e . "

A light showed briefly In his d a r k •yes . ; nd then he blushed and mois tened his hps.

Har r ie t wondered some t imes wby s h e wanted so much to win thif b o y ' s f r iendship . He was una t t r ac -tive. last she couldn ' t begin lo pronounce. It was pa r t l y the longing of a lonely, child-less woman, she supposed, for someone to mother .

The mos lc should h a v e f o r m e d a bnnd br tween them. But np to now nhe felt she was losing the batt le to p l c r c ^ his shyness and win Sam'a f r iendship .

Sam cleared his th roa t and wiped his a r m a c r o s s his sweat ing fore-h e a d .

BECAUSE MEM PLOW

Grace Noll Crowell _

NYSV>\VV

SO many furrows in so many lands. So many plow; beneath men's guiding hands. And lo! the old earth's surface has been rilled

the world's need, granaries are filled With com and wheat and rye from countless fields. Because men plow, there axe these golden'yieids; Because their silver shares have pierced the sod And chey have worked together with their God, The hungry world has food enough to cat If we share wisely—and shared loaves are sweet The plows go down the land, the furrows ran Forever curved and deep beneath the sun: The ancient farrows, and tfce fresb-jurned furrows

now— There will be bread while men have faith t o plow. W e thank Thee. God, for the heartening thought

of men Sowing and plowing und reaping, to plant agsin_»
