Some of our citizens, in and out of the government, r tlevdte a large part of their energies to denouncing “big iJ'r.'-busirfriSs.” What they conveniently overlook is the fact that major line of enterprise there is plenty of room .uder business of every size. Indeed, the big business often makes the existence of the small business possible.

But thousands upon thousands of small bus inesses are in operation because of this.

C. ese these Days £ckcLklj THE HEART OP THE PROBLEM In all the discussion of the West Point scandal, the emphasis lies on "the immediate, on the young men, who are often euphemistisalily cal led boys, on the officers, on the par ents. Many sey, “Boys will be boys,” which biologically correct un til boys become men with the ob ligations and responsibilities of men. Others feel that football players have to do so much practice that they cannot keep up with their work unless they are ’“assisted.’ And nothing is being said about the cadets who have not cheated. The real issue is the nature and purpose of a college, university or other school, and of such special schools as West Point and Anna polis. This issue has, more or less, been dodged by many educators as well as parents, since it has become increasingly popular for young men and women to go to schools of higher education and special train ing whether they have an aptitude for scholarship or not. •The question then arises whether students attend to broaden their minds or to make friends or to mark time or to play what has come to be professional or semi profpssional sports. When scholar ships are given to men and women because of their excellence as stu dents, the reward is in the field to which the universities have been devoted since the founding of Bol ogna in the Eleventh century. The Athletic Scholarship is a fee paid for special services rendered outside of scholarship. The object is to make money for the school, to attract box office receipts, to ad vertise the institution. It is strict ly a business proposition and those to whom the fees are paid are pro fessional performers—in whole or in pare—depending upon the indi vidual and the school. Sometimes such paid performers are also capable of scholarship: of ten scholarship is not'only foreign but offensive to them., In the\lat ter instanfce, if they are good enough, performers to be of commercial value, they are “assisted” to pass examinations so that they may comply with rules and regulations. At such a school as West Point, this raises three important issues: 1 1. Under the Honor System, the individual who “assists,” the indi vidual who is “assisted.” and any one who knows about it is honor bound to report the fact. West Point is a free school, the tuition, board, lodging, uniforms, and other expenses being paid by the taxpay er. Also, the students are soldiers in the Army, drawing pay. They are especially bound by rules and regulations in compliance with which they receive these benefits from the taxpayers. 2. These men are to be our gen erals of the future upon whom the survival of the nation depends. The United States make a huge invest ment in each of them, not only to be “educated,” as you and I might have been at college, but to pro tect, defend and safeguard the nat ion and the Constitution. They are men apart, whose word must be inviolate for the safety of the nat ion. Therefore, the word, honor, must have, for them, a special and emphatic meaning. 3. The standing of a West Point man is not only a matter of per sonal pride; it is a matter of re cord. upon which an officer's car eer may depend.

If I were better at shinnying up trees with a large telescope under my arm, Td apply for it myself. The trick is to climb to the top of a tall cak adjacent to a hoss race track, train your glass on the score board, jot down the results and phone ’em in to Harry Bflson, the Baltimore Racing News boss. Then the portly Harry relays this info to bookies, some of whom in tersperse the news with soothing waltz music. Tills is profitable to all concerned. Ot at least it was until the Senate crime oommiittee start ed snooping around this nation’s bookmaking parlors. Since then Harry’s businers has fallen off something awful. Still and all, he told the Sena tors, he’s been in this line of work for the last 40 year*. He’s trying to hand on. Who knows? People may still be interested in putting .down a small bet oh the ponies af ter the crime committee is no more. That brings us back to that $825- per-week Job. Last winter Florida passed a law against bookies getting the results direct from the tricks. This left Harry in his office in Baltimore biting his weU'thwricur.- ed finger nails. Not only did ae sell the news to his own customers in these precincts, but he got S4OO per day from the Continental News Ser vice, the nationwide race service, for the same dope. > At the. crucial moment, Harry's phone rang. Long distance from Florida. A voice said A1 Gorman was on the line. A1 added that he could provide Harry the race results for that $825 weekly fee, provided Har ry sent him some assistants. Harry did. And A1 delivered. If he couldn't find a tree, he’d settle for a room in the nearest tall building. If not that, he’d take a perch on a nearby barn. He’d get the results through his spyglass, wigwag them to' a helper on the ground, and the latter would phone ’em to Baltimore. A1 did so well that Harry sent him along to Bowie when that track opened in Maryland and then ordered him to Monmouth, N. J. A1 kept on earning his mon ey until last Friday. Then, no phone calls. Harry’s most expen sive employee disappeared. Har ry isn’t sure, but he thinks A1 vanished on account of those snooping Senators. 84 what Harry needs now is a new man with good eyesight and a Tarzan-like way with trees. This line of endeavor is illegal, but there doesn't seem to be much chance of getting cuaght. Al prov ed that. Not even Harry,- his bass, ever saw him. Al just got the race re suns, pnoneu, couect to Balti more. And Harry merely mailed him his $825 every week,‘care of General Delivery in whatever town he happened to be tree sitting. Harry went on to say that he not only was being pestered by Senators, but also by radio mo guls. Some of .these latter, he add ed, broadcast race results quieter than his own telescope man could oenver. several oi ms best clients have dropped off his wire in fa vor of tuning in their radios for free. This Harry regards as un fair competition and also restraint of trade. If Congress could do something about it, he'd be grate ful. Mother Os Dunn Lady Is Buried Funeral services for Marion L.

Red Armistice (Continued from page one) 'At. Pusan, South Koiwfti Foreign Minister Yung Tai Pyun .predicted a cease-fire “will be patched up somehow, but with no aggressor punished and with Korea Still div ided.” The first suggestion of a Com munist willingness to compromise over the question cf an armistice buffer zone came during Sunday's session. The Communist delegation pre sented a map then showing the relationship between U.N. and Com munist proposals to the present battleline and a U. N. communique said: “Although no tanglible progress wa3 made . . . today’s Sunday’s meeting may have unopvered a mutually acceptable area In which further explorator discussion might he held." However, the Communists failed to follow through at Monday's 78- minute meeting. REPLIES TO QUESTION Joy opened the meeting with a reply to five questions submitted Sunday by North Korean Gen. Nam 11, the chief Communist delegate. The questions dealt with the U.N. proposal for a cease-fire and a de militarized buffer zone along the present battlefront, at some places. 30 miles north of. the 38th Parallel. "The proposed zone was given to you for the purpose of providing a clear and concise understanding of our concept of a demilitarized zone reflecting the current military realities,” Joy told Nam 11.
