Some of «the Con- @fesamen go to make serious” studies of affairs in foreign lands, connected with their duties in Congress, and. others go for a junket. We think that it is a good'thing ~ the Congressmen, to get into gther 1 bd to get some idva of what | 18; ta * place im other countries. It is quite pbs- sible’that their “experienee*\will e | them a broader viewpoint of. ‘the world’ difficulties and the part that this country must play in the futdre! 4" One of the dangers.of such journe i. however, is the inability of people > in other lands to understand the relative wnimportance of the remarks made by a single Congressman. Very often when a Senator of the United States speaks | his mind on a troublesome isque in a for- eign land, his listeners get the idea that he is speaking for the United States. Consequently, his remarks are taken more seriously than they should be and some- times, this makes more difficult the mutual understanding that should exist between all peoples. Something of a case in, point, cames from, Cork, Ireland, eaag analy oaPat- viek A. McCarran, of Nevada, . expressed his opinion that the separationof the six, Northern countries from thé. Republic of | Ireland is unforwunate “not, only for Ire- land but for the whole world:” This is the opinion of the Nevada Senator but it is not the opinion of all the people of the United States. The dispute between North- ern Ireland and the Southern Republic is of long standing. It is a domestic matter, to be settled by the Irish and the British. Mr. MeCarran thinks that “the day is not so far distant when Ireland will be ealled upon to play a heavy part in the battle my country is making against Communism.” Apparently, because he hopes that Ireland will fight Commun- ism, he thinks that there should be a compulsory union of Ulster with Eire. it may be that the Irish Republic will take the side of the’free-loving peoples of the world in the war against Communism, but ene should not overlook the fact that the Republic of Ireland didsnot take its stand with the free nations of the world when they Were threatened.by Nazi op- pression. In fact, the neutrality of South- ern Ireland, closing its ports and facilities to the forces of the United. States and the English-speaking nations. Crime may not be more prevalent than ever, but it is certainly getting better publicity. BUYING EARLY PAYS Once again the people of Monroe County are doing their Christmas buy- ing and the merchants of this city are vieing with each other in attracting shop- pers. The Citizen has repeatedly urged the people of this city to trade at home and at this time wishes to emphasize the fact that local buyers can secure- “practically anything they want from the stores. here. Meanwhile, }et us agaip yrgecall buy- ers to start early and make théir purdhas es as quickly ag convenient... Resides.! the comfort of being able to shop leisurely and avoid the last-minute rushes, the buyer is assured of a better selection in making his purchases. We feel sure that merchants and their employes will appreciate the early shoppers and will give them special consideration. If children could name themselves, there would be some changes made. GOOD LUCK David E. Lillienthal has been 20 years in Government service and there is no man in Washington who has served the Nation any better. He had the misfortune in 1947 to be named ‘top’ of ‘the Atonific’ Energy Commission. Even though Senator Hicken- looper of Iowa accused him of “incredible mismanagement,” the records all show that there has not been a more faithful or honest man in all the days. We are going to agree with President Truman who made the statement that Lil- lienthal’s reward for public service in tough pioneering jobs—always under tremendous pressure, and often under de- structive criticism al] sums up to the faet that “Lillienthal has always done all things im the way in which they should have been done.” : ple in Key West. i Great Britian, resulted in heavy losses to ing a, stay here with Mrs. Raf-,his gineapple farm and cannitt pete a oer and sister, | factory.
