Yugoslavia, communist as she may be internally, is a great asset to the West. W alter Lippman be lieves that we should play our hand carefully in the matter, and not force Russia into a position where she might feel that Tito must be eliminated for reasons o f \face” and security. He writes: “Tito should be helped . . . But no sophomoric illusions should be entertained about converting him into a military satèllite o f the West. We should be satisfied with a neutral Yugoslavia.” C H A T S With Your Editor ~ Edwin S. Townsend Some time ago a national mag- ajdne called Marshall Tito, the dictator of Yugoslavia, the most im portant man in the world. This may have been an exaggeration, but the reasoning behind it is Clear. Tito has been the first lead er within the Soviet orbit to break with the Kremlin and get away With it— all the others who have tried it have been liquidated with out a delay, as in Czechoslovakia. I f T ito can continue to get away With it, and if Yugoslavia remains independent of Russia, it will be, in W a lter Lippman's phrase, “ a windfall for Italy and the west ern powers.” Largasi Paid Circulation of Any N ¿wspaper in Beaverhead County VOLUME 69 DILLON, MONTANA, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1949 No. 76 P L U M I S F O U N D N O T G U I L T Y O N FLIES A T 103 - Mrs. A lice Prancklin is r e c o r d e d as the oldest passenger in the his tory o f U n ited Air Lines, follow in g a recen t M a in- liner fligh t from San D iego, C a lif., t o her hom e in P o r t land, Ore.

Americans will make a grave m istake if they think Tito’s action is the result o f a change o f heart so far as communism as a prin ciple is concerned. Tito has been a revolutionary and an under ground fighter all his life— there Can be no doubt but what his guerilla activities during the war Were o f great service to the Allies. He is tough and able. A t the same time, he believes passion ately in Marxian principles. His break w ith the Soviet Union was prim a rily caused by two develop m ents. First, he believes that Stalin and the other top Russians have gone astray from the true ‘communist path. Second, and per haps m ost important, he is also a nationalist and he is bitterly opposed to having his country ex ist sim p ly as a Soviet satellite, with no power o f decision of its, J ow n , and subject to the whims of the Kremlin. In other words, he wants a communist Yugoslavia, . but he also wants an independent YugbBlavia. M any expected Tito’s dran&tiq break with Moscow to be follow* od by immediate Soviet m ilitary action to put the upstart in his place— w hich, if past precedent means anything, would be in ’ the n e x t world. Russia may, o f course, still make the attempt. The puzzler is what has held .her back so far, and there are various * answers to it. Yugoslavia has a well-equipped army, large for a country o f her size—even so, it couldn’t last long against Soviet m ilitary might. I t is also possible that Russia has so much internal trouble on her hands now, as a result o f her post-war expansion ist tactics, that she doesn’t feel capable o f taking on any more. Then, the Politburo m a y fear. that, w a r withi T ito might b e the match that w ould set o f f an explosion o f for adder implications, fo r which rea d e r - XMAS SEALS IN MAIL—THEY AID OUR X-RAY UNIT Evelyn Mikkelson, Christmas Seal sales chairman, has mailed | out seals in Beaverhead county. The seals sell for $1 a sheet and the money obtained goes to the tuberculosis fund. Through re search the medical profession has gone a long way in controlling this once-dreaded malady which caused those afflicted to drop off like flies. In the old days a per son suffering from tuberculosis (or consumption as it was form erly known), were hastened to high and dry climates if they could afford it. But under re search it has been found that the malady can be cured in sanitar iums located in the territory where the victim resides. Discovering the malady at the start is a necessity for an early cure. This discovery is p o £ ; sible through a m obile ¡X-ray unit , which has been purchasM funds obtained b y C h r i s t a s jsei This unit visited Beaverhead county last year and this spring. Not only do the x-ray photos show up any trace o f tuberculosis b q t i t ^ a lf o ^ t o je t s other organic disorders width enable the .af flicted person-to receive prompt tr^thiept.. ^ So valuable is the work o f the mobile unit in discovering health disorders ■! that it behooves e ll , o f us to'support it. W e can do this by purchasing Christmas seals. They m ake a nice decoration on Christmas gifts and letters and at the same time show we are doing our share toward aiding human ills, In a great humanitar ian cause. Send your contributions to Miss Mikkelson as soon as the letter and seals arrive before you for get i t * Sheriff Paul Temple, who has been appearing as a government witness in the U.
