WASHINGTON REPORT
Ike. Several years ago—in the
good old days when lie was just a
five-star general—President Eisen
hower took pride in showing
friends the trophy room in his
home.
For those who like trophies, the
room was a dandy. In here was an
amazing collection of cups, guns,
plaques, medals, and a number of
other things the souvenirs and
keepsakes of a brilliant 'military
career.
Because he had so many, tro
phies anil souvenirs had heeome ra
ther. routine for General Eisenhow
er. They were nice. sure, hut he
had so many that he took them for
granted.
Exception, That is. they were
routine except for one. At par
ties and other occasions, the Gen
eral would pick up a beautiful dia
mond-studded dagger and tell his
guests that this was his most treas- j
tired memento. It was an odd gift,
and it: came: from afi unusual and
interesting man.
There were many reasons.
A than by the name of Georgi
lx. Zhukov, the dashing; Russian
field marshal who was the Soviet's
biggest war hero, had given Ike
tlio daggerwhen they had occasion
to work together in the allied oc
eupution of Berlin. Only last week,
Zhukov was named head of all
Communist Russia’s armed forces.
Friends. To begin with, the two.
generals had struck tip a sort of
friendship during and after the
battle of Berlin.
Secondly. Ike had a deep curi
osity about this man as an individ
ual—a peasant .who . rose to .the
head of the. Rod Army, a man of
perplexing, moods and id,-as.
Thirdly, lko likod to exchange
w ; ar.. stories and talk military tac
tics with Marshal Zhukov.
To every Russian. Zhukov was
what lko was to Aniericans. It
was he who was given credit for
saving M,,sc,,w from the 'Germans,
and then, turning the ragged hut
monstrous Red Army on to victory
with the capture of Berlin. He
Was a rough and tough army man
who loved to fight, But, according
to Ike, ho could also he a gentle
man. He was a man who inter
estia.l Ike in . a Way, and they got
along well, because he liked Ike.
Ideas, In Berlin, during theTeis-
Air,dy hours between work, Ike and
Zhukov exchanged a lot of war
stories.
To Zhukov, tho Americans were
a strange, lot of fighters. They
.maneuvered, planned and gave too
much attention to detail, when in
battle. They would go to almost
any extreme, for example, to save
the live.- of a thousand men. To a
man iwho had been trained to have
little regard for human life in bat
tle, th,- American trait, of saving
lives seemed a Waste of time. Ac
cording to Zhukov, the ultimate,
ruler of the world would lie the
country that had plenty of lives to
I expend at the drop of a hat. ,

jJ Naturally, this kind of thinking
, [intrigued Ike. It was fantastic to
I see and hear a man talk of men
, dying in war at wholesale rates as
• iieing so much water over the (lain.
On the one hand, Zhukov was a
friendly, personable, nice sort of
fellow. On the other, he could he

“Green Pastures
Program” Is Now
Creating Interest
jC. W. Overman Says
Program Will Add
To Income
On Tuesday afternoon of last
week the .Agriculture Workers
Council held the second meeting on
the "Green Pastures Program’’. A
ommittee previously selected had
been contacted personally an <1
agreed to serve. Another meeting
was held on Wednesday afternoon
of this week at the Court House.
Farm committees, civic leaders,
farm machinery dealers, seed and
fertilizer dealers and other inter
fested persons attended. This meet
ing was dex'oted to a more general
discussion of the Green Pastures
Program and working out a broad
plan of action.
"If farmers will participate in
the Green Pastures Program it will
mean thousands of dollars to them
in Chowan County.” says County
Agent G. W. Overman. “We have
an ample amount of pasture area
on many farms but many of these
are not being managed properly to
obtain greatest returns. We still
have a large number of farms
which do not have enough pasture
to graze the livestock on them. It
is hoped that our farmers will rea
lize the importance and seed this
year enough pasture to meet their
Livestock needs."
