Let us take the initiative to get the forces start- ed that will make this destiny a reality. — Deseret News (Salt Lake City). GETTING HIS TEETH INTO IT Thomas Edison, inventor of the phonograph, was deaf from youth, but nevertheless he used his own ingenious way of listen- ing to his invention at work. The Book of Knowledge quotes him tuhs: "I hear through my teeth and through my skull. Ordin- arily I place my head against a phonograph, but if there is some 'faint sound that I don't quite catch this way, bite into the wood and then I get it good and strong." Let's Mab ice Our. Morality We will not win the peace only through building up our milt, tory strength, Unless this grow- ing physical power is accom- panied by san effective and. prac- tical moral rearmairient„ our race 'with our enemies for the perfect missile will surely de- stroy us. This fundamental truth was expressed, better than we can say ,it, by a wise architect who drew plans for one of New York's great skyscrapers, On. the, Walla of the central building in Rockefeller Plaza are inscribed these words: "Man's ultimate destiny de- pends not upon whether he can learn new lessons or make new discoveries and conquests, but • on Isis acceptance of the lessons taught him 2,000 years ,ago," • Among the important lessons taught some 2,000 years ago are understanding, tolerance, broth, erly love, good-will, and" the basic underlying fact that all men are literally the sons of God, Until and unless the entire world can be brought to this concept of individual dignity, good-will and brotherhood, there will be .no peace. As thEt world's great Christian nation, America must lead the • way to the universal acceptance of this concept. In all our fury and frenzy to build up our arm- aments, we must not forget that our securest shield will be forged out of the crucible of those fundamental truths that .have made ,our country great, President Eisenhower was thinking along these lines when he said: "The world must stop the present plunge toward more and more destructive weapons of war, and turn the corner that will start our steps firmly on the path toward lasting peace," As some specific steps, he re- commended greater freedom of communication and exchange of peoples, more 'cooperation on projects 'of human welfare, a program. of science for peace, and :realistic actions' toward dis- armament, These are true, basic principles. They are not, 'however, princi- ples that can be.. achieved by pushing a button or by appro- priating a given number of bil- lions of dollars.

Then, without a slip, she proceeded to answer her 62nd question on the show by naming the senators of four states which have both a Republican and a Democrat in the upper House. Her awesome familiarity with all sorts of disparate facts and' figures on "Twenty-One" is, like ex-champ Charles Van Doren's, in part the result of a childhood (in the Columbia University neighborhood) populated by in- tellectual kin—a father who is' a Columbia professor of physics, a mother who was a drama teacher, a brother who now teaches German' at Columbia. and a maternal grandfather who was a professor of theolegy. Elfrida, who is 32 and un- married, claims it was well-nigh inevitable that a steady perco- lation. of lore and erudition seep- ed into her young mind during its formative years, despite the fact that she conscientiously re- fustd to be a grind.

The borne econo- mists tell us that halibut may be prepared by any of the basic cooking methods such as steam- ing, frying, broiling and baking.

Trumpet-master Jimmy Mc- 'Partland poked his head into the Cadillac outside Jimmy Ry- an's Dixieland .in New York on an afternoon recently, "Well, brother Bud," he bellowed, "this is going to be a fine night for Music!" From the back seat, saxophonist Bud Freeman grin- ned: "Can't we play 'some are- Taxed stuff—some blues? I'm a bit tired." Six, other jazzmen stowed their horn eases and drum contrap- tions in the Cadillac's trunk. The big car rumbled slowly through the traffic tangle outward bound from. Manhattan. The bald 52, year-old Freeman turned to Bob Wilber, 31. "I hope you've got your saxophone, Bob. because you'll have to play it as well as your clarinet. I'm tired. I've been playing too much golf." But when the car rolled up be- fore the Mosque Theater build- ing in. Newark, N.J., Freeman, who was playing jazz with Bix Beiderbecke and Benny Goodman before Wither was born, was the first to hop out. ,He was also the first of the jazzmen to walk into the cavernous studio of WNTA- TV, where weekly Thursday- night jam sessions have been held on "Art Ford's Jazz Party" over New York's channel 13. There was still an hour and a half to go, but while stagehands shifted klieg lights and hung drop curtains, Freeman began a rolling, melodic "When I'm With You." He was joined in a robust, flawless frolic by Tyree Glenn on trombone, Dick Cary on piano, and Harvey Leon on drums. An hour before air time, "Jazz Party" host Art Ford, 38, who has been a disk jockey in New .-York for some twenty years, arrived and announced; "I want this program to be a spontaneous thing. I don't want ,any rehearsals. I want you cats to play square," 'But instead of "square" tones, the rollicking 90-minute broad- cast started to a well-rounded "Basin Street Blues." Next the jazzmen romped joyously through "Royal Garden Blues" and "St. James Infirmary Blues." "To the ,largest audience watching and listening to any jazz program in the world," Ford proclaimed on. 'the air, "Ameri- can musicians are playing soon- taheous, unrehearsed- jazz as' they play it for each other." "Art Ford's Jazz Party," ex- cited such comments as "superb" from critics like New York Times' finicky Jack Gould. It already claims an estimated 3 million listeners in the New York area' and has picked up another 250,- 000 who hear it on tape at 23 armed forces stations from the Aleutian Islands to the Azorks. In its first four programs it has given jazz buffs not only the instrumental improvisations of • men like Freeman, Charlie Shavers, and Mundell Lowe, but equally memorable fare front blues singers Maxine Sullivan., and Billie Holiday. "My job's simple," says Ford;' who hopes to get his taped shows on •stations around the world, "as long as I 'can get exciting and warm jazzmen on the show." —From NEWSWEEK.

A laborer, age 35,, had been found wandering through the streets in a daze, The Psychiatrist hurried to the pace station and, after a leis- r reb. smoke and a, chat with the laborer, diagnosed him as an acute schizophrenic, In. most of the world's cities, the schizophrenic would have been bundled off to a mental hospital in record time, Amster- dam treats its mental patients differently, In this ease, the psy- chiatrist took the man for a drive around town. "Are you putting me in the nut ward?" the patient asked, after a few minutes. "Do you want to go?" the doc- tor asked, The schizophrenic shook his head. The psychiatrist stopped the car, "OK," he said, "you're free to do what you want." Later, the reassured pa- tient voluntarily entered a men- tal hospital. "I tell our mental patients that if they don't like it in the hospital, they should let me know and we'll try something else," explained Dr. Arie Queri- do. 57, Amsterdam's director of /alliance health. When Dr. Queri- do set up the city's mental- health program in 1930, his in- novations were resisted as too revolutionary. "The Amsterdam. Experiment" is today still far ahead of its time, but many of the world's psychiatrists consi- der it a model program in terms of both cost and therapeutic rec- ord. Among its main ingredi- ents: An immediate, on-the-spot visit from a psychiatrist can be obtained at any hour by dialing 55555. Each year, 10,000 Amster- dam citizens ask for this psy- chiatric 'first aid at the city's ex- pease. When necessary, the first aid is followed by free psychiatric treatment in the home. At the same time, social workess attack such tension-producing factors as family, legal, or financial prob- lems, Today, 3,000 people are getting this aid; two out of every ' five will never go to mental hos- pitals. When a patient needs more extensive help — such as chemi- cal therapy — he enters a men- tal hospital voluntarily. His tam, ily pays at least part of the cost. Only about 5 per cent of these patients each year are so violent that they must be certified as insane. Despite the free psyhcistric services it offers on such a broad scale, the Amsterdam experi- ment actually is saving the city about $1. million a year. Most Dutch mental institutions an- nually budget $800 to care for each mental patient. Amster- dam needs only about .t30. By way of contrast, the average pa- tient in a large, public U.S. hos- pital costs about $1,300 ayear — and this amount, according to a past president of The. Arel-,ri ,..an Psyhciatric Association, provide- little more than "an atmosphere of gloom and despair" and a yearly physical checkup. "I have never believed," Dr. Querido stated bluntly, "that be- cause a patient is mentally ill it follows he has to remain in the hospital. The determining factor is whether his condition makes it impossible for him to live in society." To diagnose the patient's disease, the on-the-spot analysis has proved invaluable, "It gets a complete and vivid picture of the patient and his background," says Dr. Querido, "before he gets into the psy, chiatric mill." • 'or at:least half of Amster- dam's 3,600 nonhospitalized men- tal patientsasociety has had to be tailored to fit 'their needs.
