RIGORS OF RESPONSIBILITY!
“I would hate to be Mrs-. Luce
And take all the abuse:
It certainly would be hell
To have to be M. Laniel.
I can’t see the pleasures I’d cull as
John Foster Dulles,
And least of all would I like
To be Ike;
But it might just conceivably b«
Fun to be H. S. T.”

FAMILY ALLOWANCE PLAN: “If
family allowances eventually are adopt
ed in the United States, they probably
will resemble in substantial measure
the program that has been in effect in
Canada since the year 1945 (family
allowances are government payments to
families for the benefit of children). A
Canadian mother receives from the
Dominion government a total of $1,128
between a child’s birth and its six
teenth birthday. By law, the money
must be spent directly for the welfare
of the child. Family allowances are
tax-free, and payment goes to all fam
ilies, whether the child is reared in a
Montreal mansion, a Saskatchewan
farmhouse, or an igloo on frozen Coro
nation Gulf.”—Richard L. Neuberger

DULLES’S DIPLOMATIC TOOLSt
The Geneva Conference “will give
Molotov another chance to crack
the Atlantic Alliance, but it should
not be overlooked that it will also
give Mr. Dulles the first real op
portunity to scrutinise the sup
posedly porcelain-smooth exterior
of the Moscow-Peking axis. If our
Secretary of State is to take ad
vantage of any cracks he may dis
cover in the Russo-Chinese alli
ance, he must have full discretion
to employ a great many diplomatic
instruments. . . . The power to
giant our recognition, some form
of admission to the United Nations,
and the resumption of trade are
the most effective instruments
available to the Secretary of State
at Geneva. ... If Red China’s aspi
rations in this regard are more
powerful than the forces that im
pel it toward Moscow. then the
tools at Mr. Dulles’ disposal will
be the crucial facts at Geneva.”—
