THI? WEEK I* WASHINGTON The nation has been on an emotional jag over the Mac* Arthur affair The country, how ever, U in a position of crisis to day where the head instead of the heart should prevail Every one without exception has sym pathy with General Mac Arthur over the fact that he wm ousted from his high command in the Japanese and far eastern theatre, and there is no question but that this sympathy for the "under dog" has ruled the reaction* to his ouster. His speech before a joint ses sion of the congress was a triumphant defense of his posi tion ? his disagreement with the President *nd the joint chiefs if staff, as well as the United Na tions, over prosecution of the war in Korea, and the hearings before the foreign affairs com mittee and the armed service committees in congress within the next 10 days will likely give the American people a clearer insight into the facts which de termine this nation's foreign policy in Asia. ' ? ? .>? ' ? ' Ia General MacArthur pontifi cal in his military decisions? Is he subject to error in his ap praisement of the temper of the Asian peoples? Did he make a military blunder when he advis ed the President the Red Chinese would not enter the Korean war? In fact, is General Mac Arthur infallible as his worship ers claim, when it comes to mat ter both military and political in the Asian sphere? These are the ' questions which will be answer ed in this up-coming probe into our foreign policy. But, according to observers here, the real question which is now before the people is: would you be willing to make the deci sion which might bring Russia into the war on the side of Red China and thus start World War Illwith all that means, including the fact that it likely Would mean that the United States would go it alone with an all out war on both ocean fronts? ? ? ? General MacArthur declaims that it is the rankest defeatism to think that we cannot conduct a global war on both fronts. So if you follow the MacArthur line of reasoning, that is the question you must decide. If you follow the line of rea soning advocated by President Truman, we should attempt to conclude an honorable victory by holding the war to Korean borders in an attempt to avoid an all-out third world war. We may not be successful, but that is the position we should take first. No one who looks at the facts disagrees with the President's authority, or right to fire Mac Arthur, or the fact that he did not merit relief of his command for refusing to carry out, or re fusal to adhere to the orders and ' policy of his government. This in spite of the fact that the General now says he has not the faintest idea on why he was dismissed.

In the meantime the great de bate on foreign policy continues in the congress with temper flar ing and near fittcuffs between Senators Capehart of Indiana, Humphrey of Minnesota and Lehman of New York, with Senator Talt of Ohio aeeking the role of the peacemaker. And in the midst of this de bate. the one great statesman of his time, the author of the bi partisan. or as he called it . the "un-partisan" foreign policy, Senatbr Arthur Vandenburg of Michigan died. In his place. Governor Mennen Williams of Michigan has named Blair Moody, Washington newspaper man for the Detroit News. Moody is labeled a Democrat and a liberal, and his appointment was not received with enthu siasm by Senator Homer Fergu son, Michigan's senior senator. As a matter of fact, political ob servers declare the GOP leader ship in Washington will sorely miss the leavening influence and the wise counsel of the late Sen ator from Michigan. According to a tabulation of Congressional Quarterly, a non political congressional reporting organization, lobbyists in Wash ington spent a record $10,303,204 during 1950 in attempting to in fluence legislation in the con gress. Hand Tools Need Special Attention When not in use hand tools should be kept in tool cabinets or in a tool rack on the wall, L. E. Tuckwiller, county farm agent for the State College Extension Service, said this week. Sorting tools or searching for the right tool often causes hand injuries as well as damage to tools, he pointed out According to records of the National Safety Council, the most common unsafe practices in the use of hand tools are: failure to use the right tool for the job, failure to use the tool properly, failure to keep tools in proper condition, and failure to keep tools in a safe place when not in use. Wood handles should be firm and smooth to eliminate possibi lity of slivers. The blades of cut ting tools should be sharp and have proper angle. Always dress struck ends of impact tools when they begin to crack and spread. This eliminates hazards of splintering steel and diverted blows. Grind screw driver blades so the tip has a square edge and parallel surface to avoid slipping. Select screw driver of Droper size for the job. Use wrenches of the right type that fit snugly. Pull in the direc tion the jaws point. Never use a piece of pipe on the handle to get more leverage, or a shin to make a large wrench fit or pliers as a substitute for a wrench. Examine hammers carefully. Make sure that the head is securely attached. Keep tools and hands free from grease. CHURCHILL DOWNS. KY. ?
