Fleas and Chopsticks By Lewis Milligan If Communist charges that the yallied forces in Korea were re- *ý sorting to germ warfare had flot 9in the first place heen so deadly serious that some of our own *people thought there might be somne truth in them, they might *have been dismissed at once as a spractical joke. Now that the 'evi- ddence" has been presented in the form of photographs showing children picking up infested fleas with chopsticks, we can relax a littie and regard the charges as a contribution to the gaiety of nations. There is little to laugh at in the actual conditions of interna- tional affairs and especially in the factual reports oi the Korean War. But we can turn with relief to what Arthur Bryant describes as "the tireless efforts of the Dean of Canieroury" in broadcasting the "choicest fables and legends from Red China and the Soviet Union! l'or no one surely. since Hans Andersen, has given us any- thing so whimsical and full of fantasy as the story o! North Kor- ean children picking up fleas with chopsticks." Before 1 saw the pictures, the idea that anyone could pick up a flea with a chopstick struck me as "extremely funny", as the Ox- ford Englishman would say. I have neyer seen a flea in Carjada, but At is or was a ubiquitous in- sect in the Old Country, and it was no respector o! persons. The flea appears in classic hiterature. In Goethe's Faust there is a song about a flea which begins: "Once on a time there was a king, A loveiy queen had he- But dearer far than queen or son, He ioved a big black flea." The English mathemnatician, Augustus de Morgan, immortaliz- ed the flea with the classie cou- "Great fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em And littie fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum." Tragic stories have been writ- ten o! all-night hunts for one o! those littie nocturnal vampires.ý It has been estimated that, in proportion ta its size, a flea could jump over the loftiest skyscraper in New York. Just when you think you have got him under your hand, he is biting you on the back of your neck! The mos- quito is the only other night pest comparable ta the flea, but he' does not get under the bed clothe$ ', and he does Rive you some warn- ing of his approach as he hovers, singing. about your ear. If you cunningly wait for him ta stop singing, and can judge approxi- mately where he has decided ta feed, you have a good chance o! swatting him with a lightning siap-which, however, rnay hurt more than a mosquito bite. But you can then turn over and re-ý sumne your clumber-until vou are awakened by bis serenading at yaur other car. I cite these common experien-: ces as examples of the extreme difficulty of catching a flea by hand, for thev go to expose the, absurdit,; of those piettre.%; hich are said ta show North Korean: children picking up fleas with! chopsticks. But apart f rom the impossibility of such a feat, it is unlikely that parents, if they had; and thought for their children,- would allow them ta be exposedi ta attack by such deadly insects.: We should present our thanks ta the propaganda fiction tactoriesý at Moscow for their entertain-i ment. and ask themn if they have,, lany more funny stornes. a it 75TH ANNIVERSARY newspaper men of the present day.
