The group was scheduled to leave Hong Kong this week, but the government would not let the landing craft which was to get them stop there. The United States gov ernment had ordered all the Ameri can officials to leave the country about two months ago. The State Department was taken by surprise when the Americans were not al lowed to leave. McCarthy Ambassador Jessup has denied the accusations of Republican Sen ator McCarthy of Wisconsin that he has been affiliated with the Com munist party in this country. Mc Carthy is chairman of a committee that is investigating Communism in the State Department personnel. lessup made a sweeping denial that he has ever been associated with any Communists by saying, “I am not a Communist and never have been a Communist”. McCarthy is making his charge against Jessup on the basis of his association with Communist interested people. Weather Since heavy winds and snow storms swept Maine and New York state last week-end, it appeared that winter was here to stay for another long period. Jerome Mamias, chief of the United States Weather Bur eau, has estimated that the eastern part of the United States will have thirty more days of unusually cold weather. The west is expected to have the usual good spring weather. Antarctic Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd has stated that Secretary of De fense Johnson may allow him an other trip to the Antarctic region. If the expedition is allowed it will be for the purpose of studying polar warfare, and about four thousand men are expected to go. The group will leave next October for five or six months in Little America. This new expedition will be spon sored by the Army and Navy Air Forces, and the name of it will be Operation Highjump II. Admiral Byrd stated that the objectives of the trip would be to survey the area for minerals and to train men for possible polar warfare.

At present, it might ap pear that nature does not approve of our plan and is sending cold wet days to prevent us from enjoying these outdoor sports. Nevertheless in clear weather from now to the end of school, you will be seeing girls head toward the tennis courts for their morning classes, and to the softball field in the late after noon. Also, there are those who are taking advanced golf from Mr. Ed wards out at Reynolds Park. They go out once a week for a two hour class. (By the way, if you are in terested in knowing how Mr. E.’s knee is, just ask one of these golf girls—they can draw you a picture!) For the students who do not go in for the outdoor life, there is a modern dance class in the gym. But don’t let this fool you. It’s not nearly as easy as it looks. Archery is another one of our spring sports. Toward the middle of April the swimming pool will open. This is not for credit, but it is for swimming and sunbathing for fun !

Patronize Our Advertisers Leach Speaks On Need For World Gov’t. Robert Leach, tissistant professor of history, addressed the study group of Winston-Salem Council of Jewisli Women Tuesday night on “Prospects of World Govern ment Now,” discussing various phases of World Federation. He said, “World Federalism would draw the whole world into one framework of government. Every nation would delegate to this group tlie power to control the atom bomb and factories that produce war materials. An international police government would be set up to check on this. U. S. Pattern “This world government would !>e patterned after the United States, where the 48 states live peacefully despite stresses and strains between political and econo mic groups as there is a respon sible Government in Washington. Jn this , manner. World Federalism would be the responsible govern ment. “France and England have al ready agreed to join a world gov ernment. Measures are now be fore our Congress to this effect. Representative Thurmon Chatham and Senator Frank Graham have already indicated they are in favor of world government. ‘Would Russia join a world gov ernment? They have already at tacked the idea. Possibly Russia fears World Federation as an im perialistic threat. Possibly she wouldn’t join as she wouldn’t open her boarders to let the concentra tion camps and economic frugali ties ^be seen by other people. Possible Infiltration “If she did join she might try to infiltrate this world government unless it is well set up and care fully guarded. “The suggestion has been made tliat Russia’s suspicion of us be al layed by concrete evidences of friendship and help rather than by drum beating, Tlie American Friends sent $25,000 worth of strep tomycin for tubercular children in Russia, carefully stamped as a gift of tlie American Friends. “Ambulance units, also gifts of the Friends, operated behind com munist lines in Cliina and were asked by the communists to con tinue their good work. “Direct help to the people of Russia, plus a Marshall Plan for Southeast Asia to help alleviate the (Continued on Page Four) MORRIS SERVICE Next to Carolina Theatre SANDWICHES — SALADS — SODAS “The Place Where Salemites Meet” butter cream EASTER From Daytime to Date time The Anchor Co. has every thing for Yoti ...
