ment. It is up to the United States
and we all know that the U. S.
cannot keep out, he said. Her own
personal safety and interest re
quires her entrance. Neither the
sinking of a ship nor Pearl Har
bor caused the U. S. to enter the
past two wars and will not be
needed to get her into future wars.
The way to prevent another war
is stay stronger than the Com
munist-dominated countries. His
tory shows that a country has
never attacked another country
which was six or seven times
stronger and Russia will be no
exception. We are now six or seven
times stronger than Russia and
must stay that way to be safe.
Russia Has Men
All Russia has is a mass of men.
She has no bases, no fleet, no
strategic air force, and no highly
trained men. She does not have
the atomic bomb, he pointed out.
The Marshall Plan and the North
Atlantic Charter are the true
path for the countries of the world
to follow. If we follow this path
and similar paths, we, our children
and our children’s children will be
able to see 100 years of peace, he
said.
When questioned about the Uni
ted Nations, (?hurchill commented,
“The United Nations has become a
tower of Babel.”
“The U. N. provides employ
ment for otherwise unemployable
persons. That is about the only
function that it performs except
to open the eyes of a few old
women. The spectacle of Gromkyo
getting up and making his ab
surd speeches causes the scales to
fall from eyes.”
Don’t Trust Them
When questioned about the mili
tary future of Germany, Churchill
said, “There are two categories of
people that can’t be trusted with
firearms—children and Germans.”

Army to Keep Forces in Japan
Just in Case, Says Big Brass
WASHINGTON, March 1—(/P)—
The Army intends to keep about
127,000 soldiers in Japan for the
next year—mainly to keep peace,
but ready to fight if the fonner
enemy country is attacked.
This is the number of soldiers
the United States had there last
year.
Plans for. distributing the 677,-
000 men the Army would have un
der appropriations proposed for
the year beginning next July 1
were announced yesterday.
In a news conference which fol
lowed, Gen. J. Lawton Collins,
Army vice chief of staff, made
clear just what was meant by a
reference to the “tactical mission”
for Occupation Troops in Japan
and Germany.
“If Japan were attacked and our
troops were there,” he told a
questioning reporter, “they cer
tainly would fight, I can assure
you.”

Drawing Meet To
Be Held May5-6
The Engineering Drawing Con
ference will be held here, May 5-6,
according to J. G. McGuire, pro
fessor of the Engineering Draw
ing Department.
The conference is designed to
bring leaders of industry and engi
neering education together for an
exchange of ideas on the subject
of what training in graphics in
dustry requires from college grad
uates.
“For some time leaders in in
dustry and engineering education
have felt a growing need for a
closer understanding as to how
engineering education can best
train men to fit into industry and
this conference is an outgrowth of
this need,” McGuire said.
recently said American forces in
Japan are prepared to meet all
comers and would not be cut, went
a step further last night.*
Royall said in a radio program
(Mutual’s “Meet The Press”) that
he didn’t think a Japanese peace
treaty would be signed in the very
near future “in view of the Soviet
attitude.”
