Victor Dore, Canadian ambassador; and Maj, -Gen H. W. Foster, who commanded brigade, were on hand. Palestine There is an ironic significance in the fact that the quotation about "sowing the wind and reaping the whirlwind" should come from The Book which is largely concerned with the history of the Jewish people. When the Stern Gang and other Palestine terrorists were torturing and murdering British soldiers; who had been guilty of nothing but do- ing their sworn duty, there was little or no general condemnation of such acts by Zionists and their sym- pathizers in other parts of the world, and especially in the United States. Air commentators, newspapers and magazines south of the border held then] up as heroes and gloried in their deeds. But now the picture has changed. For not only in official Israel circles, but also in the opinion of most expert observers, there is the belief that with the foul murder of Count Folke Bernadotte, the Un- ited Nations official mediator, the Jewish cause bas received a terrible blow. Hopes for gaining admission to United Nations membership for Is- rael at the present have been great- ly shaken. That the killing of Bern- adotte was not the impulsive act of some hot -head, but something long ax~ Count Folke Bernadotte and carefully planned, is almost cer- tain. For weeks rumors had been circulating in Palestine that the idnunt W66 fdl'4rke11 fgr ljealili tt although Many of tis cooler minded Jews condemned such rumors as fantastic, killed he was. Had Count Bernadotte been representing mere- ly one nation in Palestine his mur- der would have been, politically speaking, serious enough. But he was there, in theory at least, as the representative of all fifty-eight of the United Nations. Now assembled in Paris, and with plenty of other and even graver matters to occupy their minds, are the delegates from those fifty-eight going to accept into hill membership a people claiming to be a nation, but wTie're sucl thing could happen. Just what those who planned it hoped to accomplish by the assassin- ?2ion of Bernadotte nobody, possib- ,, will yyeyer knowy cel • xtnfy, Tit ane theory s that We 5hernist leaders, convinced that NormanBlat>7 nothing good could conte for a Jew- ish state from the western countries, wanted to prove to Soviet Russia —whose alliance and support they were seeking—that although they aught be extreme nationalists, they could still be most useful to the Russian cause elsewhere. • Anyway it is significant that when all the rest of the civilized world was expressing sorrow over Bern- adotte's passing, a Soviet spokesman said—in that charming Russian manner—"He had no business being where he was." Korea From Moscow came the dramatic announcement that Russia intends to get its troops out of Korea by January, and hoped that the United States would follow suit. And from Washington came the prompt reply that the United States was keeping its troops in Korea until the affairs of that country are settled by the United Nations and—in diplomatic language, of course—that if Russia didn't like it she could lump it. The fact that the Russians an- nounced their intention to evacuate Northern Korea right on the eve of the Paris Assembly seems to indi- cate the purley propaganda purposes of 'that action. It put the Kremlin in the position of being able to cap- italize its peaceful intentions toward the rest of the world; and it would be no great surprise to see the So- viets pressing strongly for full Allied evacuation of Germany. Perhaps, by the time this is read, that action will already have been taken. Possibly, on the other hand, by that time the Russians will have picked up their marbles and left Paris in a huff. Anyway, the United States and Britain seem to be fully aware that it is one thing for Mos- cow to pull its troops out of Ger- many, where they have thoroughly communized their zone and are re- ported to have a well organized and trained German army under cover, and quite another for the western AIlies to pull out and leave all Ger- many to the "mercy" ,of the armed Communists from the cast. A showdown must come, sooner Or later; and it is to be hoped that ' our side wilt show the same "intest- inal fortitude" in the matter of Ger- many as Secretary Ivlarshall already has done in calling the Soviet bluff over Korea, The United States In Washington the Thomas Com- mittee—which is the short name for the House Committee on Un- American Affairs—has been having a titre time to itself during recent months, Pgofll� irgn 811 walks of have 1leen hauled u"p before it, questioned about every detail of their past lives and—generally Horny to Combat RHEUMATIC PAIN Rheumatic pains may often be caused by excess uric acid, a blood impurity that should be extracted by the kidneys. 1f kidneys fail, and excess uric acid remains, it may cause severe discomfort and pilin, Treat rheumatic pains by keeping -your ltidnep in good condition.

Whether or not the Committee has accomplished anything worth while in uncovering evidence of "dealing with the enemy" -it's aw- fully hard these days to remember that Russia is still, technically at least, an ally—is very much to be doubted. However a lot of publicity seekers and grandstanders got their names and pictures in the paper'.— the papers got a lot or ':' - looking "spy scare" headliners—and altogether the invest.: • mittee seemed to be doing abs JI as much real work as such bodies ever do on either side of the border. But now it would appear that there is another side to the picture. The United States Government em- ploys a lot of trained scientists on atomic energy and other vital pro sects—and could use a whole lot more, if it could get them. But not only are university graduates in science turning a deaf ear to appeals to come and work on such projects; a lot of those already so employed are quitting the job and going to work for private enterprise. The reason? Just because no self- respecting person likes to think that, at any time, he may be called up, grilled, and have his loyalty ques- tioned just on the word of some fienne!-mouthed headline -hunter whorl parliamentary immunity pro- tects from the possibility of a libel suit. In at least ,one key instal- lation of the Atomic Energy Com- mission the loss of scientific person- nel has been so drastic and the mor- ale of those remaining has fallen so low that there is deep concern as to whether or not the' project can be continued. Distances 'Very People often ask just what is the length of a minute, and of a second, in latitude and longitude; and the answer really depends on what spot on earth you're talking about. Scientists and geographers divid- ed the equator into 360 degrees, each degree into 60 nlinuteA, each minute into 60 seconds. After long calculations and measurements, it was decided by inter -national agree- ment that a degree on. the equator was 6165 miles. That makes a min- ute 6,076.007 feet, which is called a nautical mile, used for measuring all distances at sea. A second be- comes 107,208 feet. But the moment you step off the equator and start toward either pole, the lines of longitude, all meeting at the poles, get closer together. Then your dis- tance between linesrof longitude be conies less; at 40 degrees of latitude for instance, the measurements are: degree, 53.43 miles; minute, 4,700 feet; second, 61.83 feet. Now take latitude, measurement of the earth's surface at right angles to the equa- tor. That would be simple on a per- fect sphere. But the earth, whirling about its polar axis, is not a perfect sphere. It got fat at the middle and flat at the ends as inonlentiml tug- ged at it when it was softer than now. Thus one degree of latitude equals 68,704 miles at the equator but becomes 30.407 at the poles. Sounds goofy, doesn't it? But that's the way it works out. Alfalfa is probably a Spanish ver- sion of the Arabian word alfacfacab, which' means "the best fodder." "I See It, but I Don't Believe It," says little Susan McAra of North Bay as she looks at the 35-pound,48%-inch musleie being held up for her inspection. It was caught in Callender S24-pnd test line.

Prefers "Fresh Air” To RErssi an Stuff A Russian officer who claims to have been a jet propulsion expert in the Soviet air forces says that he likes the "fresh ajr" of old England —also that a lot of his. fellow -conn- 'trymen would like it too. IIe Is Lieut, Col. Gregory Tolcaev whose flight from the Soviet military ad- ministration in Berlin was recently reported and has now been confirm- ed by the British Foreign Office. Colonel Tokaev brought his wife and 10 -year-old daughter with him. Appearing at a news con'fernce in London where he was heckled and accused of "treachery' by Soviet press 'representatives, he said: "Give the Russian people just one day of Hyde Park, just one chance at speaking their minds in public, one free election in the sense that Great Britain knows it, and 1 am quite sure 00 per cent of them will go against the Politburo and Tess (official Soviet news agency)," Declaring the Soviet regime is "fostering a third world war," Col- onel Tolcaev said, "I refnse to par- ticipate in this policy and am going over to the camp of its most re- solute* enemies, as long as this will benefit my people."
