Page Four THE SALEMI T E_ May 13, Berlin Talks Begin In May by Ruth Lenkoski The world is waiting anxiously for May 23rd, the date which has been set for a meeting of the Coun cil of Foreign Ministers. At that meeting, the big issue of Germany —what to do for the country and how to do it—will be disputed be tween the East and West. There continues to be much speculation- in this country. The general opin ion is that this sudden peace move on the part of Russia is part of that country ’a tactics in view of an ultimate goal—to gain political power in that country. The United States is of course opposed to Com munist domination anywhere, but economically speaking, the motive of American diplomats could not be considered entirely sacrificial on our part in striving for a unified Germany. Whether or not the many prob lems in Germany will be solved, the world is temporarily experienc ing an ease of tension. For yester day, the Berlin Blockade was lifted after having been effective for 315 days, in full force. It is safe to assume that most common men are hoping and praying- that these few subsequent days are not just the rest period between rounds. In China, the Communists are still advancing and taking more and more ground, defeating the Nationalists on all sides. Although General Chennault has released a statement advising the U. S. to rush aid to the Nationalists, under a threat of a Communist dominated Asia, Secretary of State Acheson has replied that the U. S. does not plan to change her policy toward China. In his reply Acheson point ed out that the aid which we have already given the Nationalists has done little good. As a matter of fact, he said, much American mater ial has been captured by the Com munists, who are using it to sweep through China. NOTICE The winners of last week’s Ches terfield contest were Liz Leland, Helen Kessler, Helen Brown, Betty Biles, and Carolyn Taylor. This goes to show that Chesterfield smokers always know the right answers. ChiJjdren Frolic OnCampus; Have Many Talents by Lee Rosenbloom Salemites have enjoyed seeing the children of faculty members on campus this year. On the way to the laundry or taking sun-baths, we find them playing in the sand- pile and down in the May Dell. Mrs. French has been wondering why her children get their shoes wet playing in the May Dell. We don’t want to be tattle-tales, but perhaps it has something to do with the fact that Suzanne and Christopher refuse to use the bridge while crossing the stream. Suzanne is in kindergarten, but Chris is already in school. Chris displays unusual drawing talent and is very interested in model airplanes. Wilson and John Curlee have practically a miniature farm with chickens and dogs, so all the other faculty children love to play with them. We understand that a real live rabbit turned up on Easter, and, since no one has claimed it, the Curlee children are sure it’s a real Easter bunny. The Brombergs have a new ad dition to their family, Christine, who was born in February. Susan, their older daughter, has curly blonde hair which is the envy of all Salemites. Jean, Dickie, and Terry Singer have just come to Salem this year. Dr. and Mrs. Singer often take them to the Eondthaler’s for the coffee hour on Sunday. Mrs. Rondthaler brings them, the toys that her children used to play with from the cupboard, and the Singer children play with them very nicely in the corner. Mr. Peterson is rather worried about three year old Carol. While Mrs. Peterson and Jean Elizabeth, their new daughter, have been in the hospital, Carol has been highly entertained on campus. She loves to watch the girls in the swimming pool. Carol is very proud of her new little sister (“Dreen Eliza beth”) because Euthie, the little girl next door, has a baby sister too. Miss Baynes’ little niece has been visiting her from New Jersey. Her prize remark was made while visiting Ruth Lenkoski and Martha Hershberger on first floor Clewell. She thought their room was lovely because it was “right on the water. ’ ’ Miss Judy Sampson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Sampson, can often be seen in Main Hall. For some of the cute little things she has said recently, consult the notes of any Music Appreciation students. Speakers Con.
