warfare, that surprise, the unexpect- ed, the swift hard attack, are the keys to success. In a series of bril- liant actions he contributed to the destruction of 'the French and Span- ish fleets, prevented Napoleon's in- vasion of England and put the Royal Navy in the position of ruling the seas for generations.

Nelson never sheltered behind or- ders which had been given without full knowledge of the situation. Per- haps he was fortunate that civilians at home could not follow his hour by hour operations and give orders in the midst of the battle. He enjoy- ed an independence of action which many succeeding commanders must have envied. '

Towards The Future

The eminent historian Professor Arnold Toynbee has expressed the opinion that the world will face starvation within the next century or so unless some international sys- tem of birth control is adopted meanwhile. He bases his argument on the assumption that war, disease and pestilence-alliof which have taken tremendous toll in human lives in the past and thus kept the world's population from getting out of hand--are on the way out. His suggestion that birth control become standard practice will give rise to much controversy. However, if the views of another expert, who is per- haps as highly regarded in the med- ical field- as Professor Toynbee is in the field of history, accurately pre- dict the shape of things to come, even the most rigid birth control system will be of little account as far as keeping the population at an economically reasonable level is con- cerned.

Writing in a recent issue of Sat- urday Review Dr. Lawrence S. Kubie, professor of psychiatry at the Yale University School of Medicine,

suggested that the time will come '

when death from natural causes at any age will be considered a rarity. "We have learned", wrote Dr. Kuble, . "that as long as the supply system b Intact thebody continuously takes itself apart and put"! itself together,

body who don not have the accl- dent habit can cease to live".

All this has the appearance of "strange thoughts and fantastic rev- cries” and it certainly opens up a big catalogue of fanciful speculations. But, in consideration of the fact that many fantastic dreams of the past have become today's commonplace realities, who will say that Dr. Kubie's dream must remain forever unfulfilled? At any rate, the mere thought of it suggests, problems which, if they were tobe taken ser- iously, would send the economists, the sociologists and the historians running to the ps) chiatrists' couches in desperation and alarm.

ill fact, voters might be forgiven for not being able to see much differ- enve between the Republican and llemocratic viewpoints. But there is no excuse for anionefs confusing the S.R.P.'s policies with those of any other group.

Briefly, these are the things which Presidential candidate T. Coleman Andrews and his running" mate Thomas H. Wendel are asking and presumably expecting millions of voters in several states to vote for: Abolition of the Income Tax which the manifesto calls "the worst thing that ever happened to this country, an instrument of vengeance, a Com- munistic device"; rejection of the Supreme Court's ruling calling for racial integration in the public schools (on this issue the manifesto says "the Supreme Court has dis- carded its law books for Communist novels”); an end to all foreign aid, which is called ”a bipartisan give- away program intended to involve us in war”; cancellation of all liberal trade programs and the placing of high protective tariffs on all im- ports.

It. seems incredible that any group of Americans in this day and age would seriously put forward such a program, much less expect any pub- lic support for it. Yet, there were nearly 3,000 delegates present in the convention hall at Richmond, Vir- ginia, when the candidates were nominated; and some independent press observers seem to think that the States Righters will make more or less serious inroads on the for- tunes of both major parties in sev- eral states and may even capture the electoral votes of one or two of them. Several Republican Senators who don't especially care for Mr. Eisenhowerls ”Liberal Republican- ism" are said to be in sympathy with at least some of their aims.

Clearly, isolafionism is still a fac for in American politics.

The London Library

BBC Talk oftlso Wed

Scholars and serious students In Britain find the London Library in St, Jamcsis Square an invalu- able guide and assistant in their work. In a talk broadcast recently in the BllC's General Overseas Service, Sir Harold Nicolson. who has for several years been chair- man of the library, spoke,about its history and its unique facili- ties.

"it all started with Thomas Carlyle," he said. "When he was writing "lihe French Revolulion' and The Life of'I-Trederick the Grest' he found, naturally. that he needed many works of re- ference. that such works were difficult for private individuals to acquire and keep, and that Mrs. Carlyle had already shown signs of acute displeasure when he star- ted to cluttcr up her beloved drawing room with what she cal- led, in her sprightly fashion. lmusly tomes'." Carlyle, Nicnlson explained, had to cross London on horseback from Chelsea to Bloom- bury to consult the books he wanled in the British Museum reading room, and spend the day copying extracts often far longer than he would require - in an atmosphere which in those days was thick and oppressive and often brought on an acute head- ache. "The one day. he can- celved the idea of founding a lend- lng library which would acquire books in all the main lanlzuaga needed by serious students for several different subjects. Students would have to be elected members of this institution by a Committee composed of learned and reliable men. Once they had been elected and had paid their subscriptions, they would be free to hrouse along the shelves and to take home with thrm the books that they needed. as many as ten books a time.

Carlyle discussed this project with his cronies John Stuart Mill and Matthew Arnold and as a result the London Library was born.

Since that day, more than a bun dred years ago. it has of course expanded enormoualy..it has a membership of roughly five thou sand readers. which is the figun regarded by the committee as the largest number which can efficiently be served by the ex- isting staff, premises and books."

The London Library differed from the great national. municipal and subscription libraries. Nicol- snn said. in that it was run not so much as an institution as I Club, to which members owed loyalty and In which they took pride, and which provided the serious reader with books that he might find it difficult to obtain with equal convenience elaewhoro. Staff were specially trained to suggest to member. the most use- ful books for their purpose. and the authors' catalogue and sev- eral subject indexes provided up to date information of the most of the countries and languages Io! important works published in most the world. it was not the policy of the London Library to keep up In date with current fiction. and the large sums spent annually on new books were in the main de- voted to books of Importance, whether they were published is England or overseas.

Slr Raymond foresaw the day when atomic powered settlements would dot the Antarctic mainland and said that thus "man might add a seventh habitable cnntinent to the six he already has in thrall.

Surgeons may soon be able to operate to clear out clogged arteries and prevent heart at- taclu. a famous heart surgeon pro- dlcted Friday.

Dr. Alfred C. Blalock of John Hopkins ll ' ', Baltimore, cig- lnator of the operation for "blue babies" of some years ago, said this Is one possibility arising from recent heart research.

Heart attacks come when attu- in feeding blood to the heart muscle become narrowed and closed by fatty deposits on the Is- alde, or when the narrowed arti- lea are plugged by blood clots.

Research is under pay on aim- ais exploring this possibility. Blalock said, is summing up reporters recent develop heart surgery. ' ;
