This is one of the frankest comments yet from the Indian Prime Minister and one which the democracies welcome. The Prime Minister, and other Indian officials, are finallysappreciating the Communist menace in Asia for what it is. Even at the time of the outbreak of the Korean War, on June 25th, 1950 leading Indian Government offi- cials were attempting to play a strictly neutral role and were suffering under illusions about Communism. At that time it was the vogue in India for officials to stress the faults of both the democratic system and the Communist system, . It is reassuring to see, in the last nine months, that Prime Minister Nehru and other Indian officials ‘have seen though the false peace propaganda of the Commun- ists. The rejection ofthe Indian effort to settle the. Ko- rean War, several months ago, and the brutal speech of Andrei Vishinsky in the U. N., probably had its effect on both Nehru and the Indian Government. i In his recent statement, Mr, Nehru warned Indians not to be misled by Communist propaganda, which has had some effect.on the Indian population in recent years, His words are pertinent and reassuring to Americans, and indicate that India is fast moving away from the Com. munist orbit, which seemed precariously close to absorb- ing India only two or three years ago. A Letier From Dear Neighbor: Let’s turn to the Mail Bag to briefly answer a few of the ques- tions which have been sent to me by the folks of South Florida. Mrs. R. W., Coral Gables, would like to know if the House commit- tee investigating’ tax-exempt edu-" cational and philanthropic founda+ tions for possible subversives found any of the foundations to be sub- versive. Well Mrs. W., the Special Com- mittee that conuucted this investi- gation informs me that they found very few actual Communists or Communist sympathizers obtained positions of influence in the foun- dations, They found the record of the Youndations in resisting subver- Sives generally was “good” with a surprisingly small portion of grants going to subversives, The Commit- tee recommended fuller reporting by foundations. and a study,of tax laws for the possibility of encour- aging gifts to the organizations.

The sky a sea of fire; the ocean a flaming wonder. The Lions provide care to those whose eyes cannot see such sublime beauty. I often wonder what one would give to see the Moon if nature had not made it free entertainment, or we were sightless. Whenever I think of the beaut- iful work of the Lions Club, re- newed faith surges through me like a freshet.

It’s how big an expense account he draws. The expense account is a won- derfully flexible instrument, the passport into a golden world of free-spending splendor. « “An expense account “beats a paycheck because you don’t have to explain it to Uncle Sam,” says the lucky holder of one. “And the company doesn’t ask too many questions about where the money goes, as long as you're bringing in business. “Why should they holler? Every dollar you spend on. expenses ac- tually costs them only 18 cents. The rest would go to the government anyway under the excess profits tax.” The expense account probably is as old as civilization. But rising imcome taxes and spreading busi- ness prosperity have enabled it to create a new privileged class, both here and in England. Many a man woos and weds a wife now on expense account mon- ey, or gives his dear old mother a winter vacation in Florida, or sends his son to a college he couldn’t otherwise afford. The joys and woes of this post- war aristocracy are explored in the current issue of Life Magazine by Ernie Havemann, who says: “In cities like New York, Wash- ington, and Chicago it is safe to say that at any given moment well over half of all ihe people in the best hotels, the best nightclubs and the best restaurants are charging | the bill to their companies, which in turn are charging it to the gov- ernment in the form of tax deduc- tions, Even a smaller city like Seattle reflects the phenomenon.” The cheerful advantages of a big expense account are obvious to anyone. The tragic side is just as real, It is an open invitation for a | man to live beyond his own means. jHe finds that his mere signature on a check will let him enter into {a glamorous world of free drinks, lfree food, free theater tickets and other kinds of entertainment.

Antes, una dama para confeccio- nar un vestido, necesitaba adqui- rir de cinco a siete yardas de tela. Ahora, apenas si con tres cuartas caménos, se confecciona un pseudo- traje y se lanza por esas calles de Dios, recibiendo los candentes ‘ra- yos de nuestro Sol sobre la epider- mis directamente, sin importarle en muchos casos, que ese pequefio vestuario ponga a la vista varices, cicatrices o marcas, que antes ocultaban cuidadosamente las mu- jeres en todas partes. La tendencia es ideal para los del sexo fuerte. Se va, distninu- yendo el traje femenino. La idea final es irse despojando de trapos y de cintas, como una perenne ex- que se ofrecen a la vista del tran- seunte masculino, como un preme- ditado plan para iniciarle en el es- tudio y la admiracién de las obras de arte, que hasta entonces, no les eran familiares. Lo mas pintoresco del caso es que respetables damas de otros lugares de este gran pais, tan pronto Hegan a nuestro querido terrufio, se disponen a sacar al Sol la epidermis que no serian capaces de mostrar alla donde ellas viyen y mantienen sus cré- ditos de personas de austera mi ralidad.
