A MATTER OF TASTE
Deploring the number of poor
books and magazines published to-
day, we stress our complaint and
forget that though the quantity of |
good reading may not be to our
liking, there is a decided improve-
ment in the quality of the good
books offered. Though there are
mere trashy beoks published today
than in our country’s history, there
are more good books being sold
and read. than twenty or thirty
years ago. Consider the quality of
juvenile books, alone.
This improvement holds true in
art, music, the theatre, where we
may not be producing as much of
the geod, hut we are appreciating
it more + when it does -appear. It
seems we are cultivating higher
standards of taste. i

IT'S OLD STUFF
What is new about the new fad
fer erew hair cuts? We're doing it
since Hector was a pup and loox-
like some breed of clipped
peoch, in the process, no doubt.
But since word reaches us that
the crew cut is going to be very
pepular for all ages of males, this
swnmer, we will speak a good word
for the short, stubby crop. If we

iN THE NAME OF THE WAR
We are not alone in our reaction
to the blood-thirsty sounding la-
bels used in connection with mil-
itary action in Korea. You need
net consider yourself overly sen-
sitive or squezmish by objecting to
the sound of “meat-grinder tac-
tics” “Operation Killer”. Amer-
icans are normally peace-minded
peeple, desifous of maintaining a
decent way of life. When war
cemes they realize what it entails
and share the feeling of wishing to
defeat the enemy. We would not
chinge the aggressiveness a nd
strategy of our military leaders who
are resisting the foe in the cam-
paign. There is nothing pretty a-
bout war nor will werds paint it
so. The object of hattle is to cut
lines of communication, capture or
destroy weapons, demolish indust-
* ries that are war potentials and put
cut of action the enemy troops, But |
in so doing, do we accept the ac-
ticn callously and dispassionately,
- with no sensitivity te the labelling |
of such as “meat grinder tactics” |
and “Operation Killer”?
Be cur warriors of the Army, |
Navy, Marines, Air Corps, they are
net glamorizing their job and
though they bwrn, bomb, blast and
kill, they are not blood thirsty. War
