ECHOES

(Continued From Page One) advocate the practicing of the principles of the Declaration of Independence are called “antiChristian, un-American, and pro-

Communist.”

Just four days after Williams and Rankin had termed those who believe in racial equality “anti-Christian, un-American, and

pro-Communist.”

Just four days after Williams and Rankin had termed those who believe in racial equality “anti-Christian, un-American, and pro-Communist,” the Rt. Rev. Msgr. Joseph P. Morrison, of the

the fundamental principles of Christianity and Americanism, and only those who adhere to these principles have a right to call themselves Christian Americans. The great majority of those who have made a serious and candid study of these sacred documents believe that they exclude all racial hatred, anti-Semiticism and Jim Crowism, as advocated by the Representatives from Mississippi. When Attorney General Clark gets his Freedom Train loaded up with the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States and the original Bill of Rights, it might be a good idea for someone to escort Rankin and Williams around to the Train and let them have a look at these

sacred documents.

Lilienthal Was Not Involved Sen. McKeller, the inveterate enemy of David Lilienthal, who spent so much time and energy in trying to smear Lilienthal and to prevent his confirmation as head of the U. S. Atomic Commission showed his determination to continue his fight against the head of the Commission, by tryipg to blame him for a decision made by the United Nations Atomic Commission. McKeller called the Senate’s attention to a recent decision of the United Nations Atomic Commission. He termed the decision a victory for Russia, and charged it to Lilienthal and all those who had voted

for his confirmation.

“At Lake Success yesterday the Russian delegates had their first semblance of a victory in the proceedings which took place there. A great feat was performed. Sen-

Catholic Church, told a group o ^ Chicago that the Constitution of I ators who voted for the confirmathe United States declares that j tion of Mr. Lilienthal and the

all men are created equal and that anyone who denies these truths “ceases to be a Christian

and an American.”

The public is likely to be greatly confused, when one day the political leaders intimate that those who believe in racial equality are “anti-Christian, unAmerican, and pro-Communist,” and the next day a great spiritual leader asserts that those v/ho deny racial equality are neither Christians nor Americans. The issue cqn easily be clearified by a study of the Bible, the Consti--tution of the United States and the Declaration of Independence. These sacred documents contain

members of the American Commission on the ground that they would be looking after Arnerica’s interest should begin to take heart when they contemplate what occurred there. If, as I suggested may prove to be the case, our own Commission should also contribute to the Russian victory, a number of my associates in the Senate who voted to confirm certain nominations might consider themselves open to congratulations.” He then had read into the Record an editorial from the ’Washington Times-Hefald, which asserted that “Russia won a minor moral victory 1 ’ in the decision made at Lake Success. When McKeller tried tfc insinuate that David Lilienthal was responsible for this Russian victory, Senator Knowland called the Senators attention to the fact that the U. S. Atomic Commission are two distinct organizations, and that Lilienthal certainly could not have been responsible for the decision made by the U. N. Atomic Commission. This prevented McKeller’s plans for charging Lilienthal and his supporters with the responsibility for U. N. decisions. It also shows that there is no limit to the lengtfc that some persons will go in perverting the truth to make a point against any person they dislike. Can Congressmen And The American Public Be Trusted? Representatives Dirksen (R., 111.) and Rankin (D., Miss.) had some trouble about agreeing to have a stenographical copy of the speech delivered by Mrs. Shura Lewis to a group of high school students printed in the Record. When Dirksen moved to have the speech printed in the Record, Rankin reserved the right to object and said, “let me say to the gentleman from Illinois that I am afraid he is making a mistake. If that speech is placed in the Record it will be frankable, and they can have millions of copies of it printed and sent out under somebody’s frank, who is in sympathy with them and distribute it all over America.” Rankin’s statement seemed to imply three things: (1) The speech was Communistic ‘in Its contents; (2) Some Congressmen are in sympathy with the Communists, and would allow their franking privilege to be used to send the Communistic speech all over the country; and, (3) The American people cannot be trusted to read the speech and pass their own judgment on it. The very essence of democracy is that the people, through freedom of speech and freedom of press, shall have the right to hear and read both sides of all issues and make their own decisions in the matter. Rankin’s position seems to indicate that he distrusts the loyalty of his col-

leagues and the intelligence of the American people. The speech was printed in the record, without further objection. LEGAL ACTION (Continued From Page One) ered once before for membership to the school board but he had not been nominated before the election meeting of the council at that time. He is widely considered a well qualified citizen for the position and had the recommendation of a majority of council members of the school and library committee. Ora Shroyer is completing his second three year term on the board and was a former member of the city council. He is a member of the carpenters labor union and a resident of the southside and his supporter emphasized these two reasons for his re-elec-tion. Although it has been recommended that a woman be placed on the school board little consideration had been given to such a proposal at this time. It is believed that such an appointment will be given greater support at the next council election of a school board member. William T. Raymond, local attorney and John C. Banta, merchant, are the other two school board members. They, together with Shroyer, officated at the Commencement program of 439 graduating seniors of Central High, Thursday night at the Field House.

Superintendent of Schools I^oscoe D. Shaffer presented the class, and awards were made by Principal Earl Peckinpaugh. In the miniature newpaper published for their class banquet the headline was “Depression Babies Succeed.” Last evening they all looked as though they had weathered the depression very well, and by the unusually high scholastic average of this large class, those lean years failed to leave any lasting marks. Twenty-three of these students received awards with an average of 2.5 scholarship index for the four high school years. Of these, sixteen received scholarship awards. The diplomas were presented by Ora T. Shroper, secretary of the school board, and John C. Banta, treasurer, as Miss Lucille Johnson, dean of women, called the names.

How to Go to Sleep

We were sitting around Bill Webster’s parlor Friday evening and the talk turned to the best way of overcoming sleeplessness...like breathing real slow and deep, imagining that you weigh a ton, or simply throwing away the pillow. The consensus favored counting sheep. But right away was the question: what kind of sheep? There were some votes for countin’ Merinos, Shropshires, Oxfords and Dorsets. Ed Mapes said he had best luck counting crossbreeds. Finally, Bert Childers spoke up

with his formula: A light snack and a mellow glass of beer at bedtime. Sort of puts you in the mood for quiet thoughts and peace of mind. Lets you relax . . . and “ho hum,” off to pleasant dreams! From where I sit, there’s nothing like a temperate glass of beer to smooth away the creases of the day, relax a body, and pave the way for a good night’s sleep. Try it, and see if I’m not right. f

as careless with his own dough as he was with somebody else’s. Paul struck a match and toupher the corner of the C-note with it. The bill went up in smoke faster than you can Ipse your wad with one throw of the dice. There were ohs and ahs and how-did-hp-do it. It should be added right here that Paul is a magician. He was practicing up for the 1947 convention here next week of the Society of American Magicians. He wept calmly about his business, apparently unconcerned over the fact that one poor old goat in the room still was minus a hard-earned 10-dollar bill. Just when the torture had started to kick up a fever under the hat of a certain newsman, Paul a-hemmed and the room became quiet. The mystic then asked a girl standing near the front of the bar to have a look in her coat pocket. She pulled out a couple of hankies, some lipstick, two sticks of spearmint, a pack of cigarettes — and two green things. Paul's hundred bucks, singed at the corner, and the missing sawbuck. He handed the money back to me and I felt better. “That was a swell performance,” everybody said. Paul asked me what time it was —he had to go. I looked at my wrist. The sun of a gun had lifted my watch. o May Change Virus To An Ally of Man Chicago — A Noble prizewinning chemist said lasf night that the deadly virus some day may be changed by science into an ally of mankind. Dr. Wendell M. Staley, of the Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research, Princeton, N. J., said the viruses already have been changed in test tubes. Such experiments, he said, may result in one of medicine’s greatest triumphs. Stanley, who shared the Nobel prize in chemistry last year for his work in developing an influenza vaccine, spoke in acceptance of the Williard Gibbs medal awarded by the Chicago section of the American Chemical So-

ciety. Vaccines to prevent smallpox and yellow fever, he said, are the result of natural changes in virus structure. But development of such beneficial strains, he said, has been a matter of luck. Science still must conquer many other virus diseases, including poliomyelitis, measles, mumps, yirus pneumonia and the common poltf. Stanley said that “notable progress” has been made in laboratory attempts to produce beneficial virus strains through chemical reactions in experiments with the virus which causes the tobacco plant disease known as tobacco moasic. He said that beneficial virus strains must be found for other diseases. “It is obviously an unsatisfactory situation to be forced to depend upon chance mutations in order to secure beneficial virus strains,” he said. Stanley said that the ability of viruses to change, while advancing the hope of beneficial uses, also presents a danger with “terrific potentialities.” “If a killing type of virus strain

should suddenly arise by mutation among the viruses which attack human beings,” he said, “it could ... be carried rapidly to the far corners of the earth and cause the deaths of millions of people.” ! o FREE HAIRCUTS. Cambridge, Mass., March 18.— Tony Anastasi passed out free haircuts and cigars at his barbershop today.
