NO WONDER WE'RE PUNCH-DRUNK
Prime Minister Churchill, speaking in the House of Com
mons, and his defense minister Earl Alexander, address
ing the House of Lords, have told Britain that the enemy
in Korea has. nearly doubled his strength and can now
launch a major offensive at any time and sustain it over
a long period. Churchill also said he never believed the
Reds wanted peace, even when the truce talks started last
July.
At almost the same time, America's elder statesman,
Bernard M. Baruch, testifying before the Senate Prepared
ness subcommittee of the Armed Services committee
blasted the American leaders who "picture us winning the
'cold war' one month, and in mortal peril the next.' We
are losing the arms race with Russia, he said, and pointed
out that the Administration had decided on stretch-out of
defense goals from 1954 to late 1955 or 1956, while "our
highest military authorities have stated . .. that from now
through 1954 will be the period of maximum peril for this
nation."
Some weeks ago, General. J. Lawton Collins, Army
Chief of Staff, told the Senate that if fighting continued
in Korea or there should be an attack in Europe, we "would
have no reserves of some of the most important types of
ammunition, and our front-line troops would have to limit
their ammunition expenditures to what came off the pro
duction line." He went on to say that some of the "most
important" types of ammunition had already been ration
ed on the front lines in Korea because "production still
does not equal normal battle expenditures."
In Panmunjom, the enemy adds threats to his insults and
arrogance, while we struggle to "contain" our own prison
camps. In Berlin, a city-wide armed camp is walled off,
East from West by barricades of steel and stone, and the
Reds have thrown a three-mile buffer zone around the 375
mile border of East Germany, in protest to the signing of
the Allied-West German pact.
r At the time President Truman announced our interven
tion in Korea, he boasted that America had never lost a
war. Today, we can't be so sure.

W. C. Carter Resigns
As Deputy Sheriff
Resignation of Deputy Sheriff
W. C. Carter of Loris was an
nounced Monday night by Sheriff
C. E. Sasser.
Mr. Carter told the sheriff in
his letter of resignation that he
had accepted a job as police in
spector at the Savannah River
atomic energy plant.
He explained that the new job
would pay considerably more than
his salary as deputy. This, he
wrote, made it seem advisable to
accept, because of the needs of
his family. He has a wife and two
children.
A deputy for six years, Carter
wrote that he always had tried to
follow the sheriffs policy of en
forcement of the law. He asked
that he be relieved effective June
1. It is understood that he is tak
ing a week's vacation beginning
at once.
CARD OF THANKS
I wish to thank everyone again
for all the thoughtfulness and as
sistance given me and my family
during my illness.
