IN THEIR OWN BACK YARD
In Australia the official ruling on
recruiting specifies that recruits
must enlist for service in Australia
or anywhere in the world. But, the
Australian Labor Party, fortunate-
ly not the power in control of the
government, opposes the policy. It
insists that no ene should be re-
quired to enlist, unless he so de-
sires, for service outside of Austra-
lia. This is isolationism with a cap-
ital letter. As we might well ask,
where would Austrzlia be if Ameri-
can soldiers, in the last war, didn’t
fight the Japancse in the Pacific, if
right now they didn't fight in Korea?

NOT THE CAUSE, THE EFFECT
In small tewns where everybody |
knows everybody else and the size |
of .their over-draft, there aren't the |
local fights about gambling, what it |
is, when or if it can be charitable |
and werthy. Folks aren't as worried |
about where bingo games and slot |
machines might lead. about “gpons”
moving in to take over and bring |
about political corruption, racket- |
eering, blrodshed. Some churches, |
private clubs and charitable organ- |
izations that operate hingo games |
and slot machines, feel it is an in-
teresting and indirect way of con- |
tributing to worthy and construc-
tive causes they maintain. But, can |

gambling be grod because it is for |
a good cause or is it bad because it |
has so frequently led to crime, cor- |
ruption, death? A man says if it is
controlled gambling, it can be suc-
cessfully handled. His neighbor
asks, “Can gambling be controlled”?

WE'LL TAKE FUMPKIN i
Cheese, Wine, Honey and Mac- |
zroni weeks come in October, and
so does the day Hallowe'en. Dairy |
farmers, wine merchants, manufact- |
urers, back the weeks. Children |
end fhe old who are young in heart, |
back the day. Sure, we like cheese,
wine, honey and macaroni, but we |
love H:llowe'en. It gives us an ex-
cuse to masquerade as Romeo, At- |
las, Simon Legree or the King of |
Hearts. We relish a cheese omelet
but we like pumpkin pie better. |
Honey and hot biscuits is mighty |
geod, but so is cider with dough-
nuts. Cleaning the yard to make a
Hallowe'en bonfires isn’t any more |
work than cleaning feod spots on |
your tie. A casserole must be wash-
ed but a tub of water for apple- |
bobbing, doesn’t. Sure. it’s hard to |
get the soap off the windows, takes |
effort to find the porch chairs.
Cheese and crackers make a nice |
crunching sound, but so does crisp |
apples and parched corn. We'll take |
fortune telling, tick-tacks, pump- |
kin faces, witches brew, broom |
| between a permanent military force |

us during World War H, according |
to Maj. Gen. Hershey, He proposes |
certain measures to maintain and |
build a stronger military establish- |
ment,
First, he would make World War |
| I¥ velerans, within the present age
of 19 - 25 limits, eligible for service.
This meets with opposition, with
preference for a 35 age limit in- |
stead. But, the group of younger |
men are more satisfactory as far as
military efficiency is concerned and
puts less disruption upon industry.
The group contains men, most of
whom saw service during the clos-
ing days of the war or afterwards
or for short periods, includes few |
| who received the brunt of heavy
and long service.
Second, Gen. Hershey would in-
crease the present limit of 21 months
peried of service to 30 months, at
least, and for the existing emer- |
gency. When an emergency may last |
for years, you can't build an ef-
fective military force on a short-
time basis. He strikes a medium
and some plan for universal train-
ing. He suggests that deferment |
policies be tightened, that physical |
| and mental requirements be re-
laxed, which have led to a high per-
centage of rejections. |
There will be opposition to any
change in the Selective Service |
laws and, with events in Korea
increased resistence to these draft
| are prepared for any future Koreas.

William Penn saw in Pennsylvania a land rich with possibilities. But even he never imagined the
great strides Pennsylvania was to make through the years. ‘Little did he dream in 1681 when he received
the land charter that this was the first step in developing a great Pennsylvania which would —

Pennsylvania has many, many more achievements than the few above. It's time to take stock to
see what can be done by Pennsylvanians . . . by us... to keep Pennsylvania out in front.
During Pennsylvania Week; see what YOU can do to bring more business , , , more people to our
own area. That's what Pennsylvania Week is for — and every week of the year, for that matter.
During Pennsylvania Week, tell someone about the “good thing” which William Penn founded 269
years ago . . . and help keep your Pennsylvania growing for a greater Lomorrow.
