SS: Peter and Paul Cathedral. On this tract he had not only his cabin, but raised enough vegetables to keep his restaurant going. His family, too. On June 20, 1853, Mr. Freeman was arrested. The suddenness of the news was enough to turn the town upside down. On that day, Pleasant Ellington, a Ken-
_ tuckian, but then living in Missouri, showed up in
Indianapolis and charged Mr. Freeman with being a fugitive slave. He said the Negro had run away in
"1836, and that it had taken 17 years to track him to

60 Days to Dig Up the Truth
In the meantime, John L. Ketcham, Lucien Barbour and John Coburn were retained to defend the Negro. Given 60 days to dig up what they could concerning Mr. Freeman's past, they discovered that the accused man told the truth when he said he had lived in Georgia from 1831 to 1844, the year of his coming to Indianapolis. Moreover, they learned that Mr. Freeman had never besn a slave.

He followed with another suit ($3000) against the U. S. Marshal Who arrested him. The case ‘was tried and resulted in a verdict for Mr. Freeman. The court allowed him $2000. He didn’t collect a red cent and as far as anybody knows the judgment still stands on the court's docket as paid. er that, Mr. Freeman stuck around Indianapolis e heard what had happened he expressed some apprehension ‘that the North might be licked. Indeed, he went even further and predicted that, in that event, all Negroes would be put back into slavery. Mr. Freeman sold what property he had, packed his effects in a wagon, and went to Canada to make, sure of freedom. I never did learn whether Mr. Bree man met Sam up there.

It Seems to Me
NEW YORK, July 21.—An earlier Caesar complained that Cassius had a lean and hungry look, and for that reason he did not have much. faith in his fidelity. But under later imperial decrees-a wholly different standard has been set. -Apparently one can4 not be patriotic, plump and a Nazi. : Just how Herr Goering is going to feel about this, dispatches from the Reich have failed to mention. But the mandate has been made palpable. Prof. G. M. Wirz of- the National Socialist Bureau for Public Health stated in a formal address at Stuttgart that the intemperate use of meats and fats is “as bad a vice as’ immoderate smoking and drinking.” In this there is nothing startling. You can find the same statement in any syndicated column of health hints here in America. Indeed, it used to be a common saying along the Rialto, “I have a terrible head this morning. I must have had a bad bunch of celery at the party.”
Gobbling Is Treason
But Prof. Wirz made his bid for the headlines when he ‘added that gobbling meats. and fats “also constitutes a form of treason.” And it may even be that ‘we shall Trear of purges of those who sat too long at table—after the tureen, the turmoil, as one mien say.

Senator Borah accepted that responsibility in his frank and warm debate with Mr. Roosevelt during the White House conference Wednesday night. Both President- ‘Roosevelt and Secretary Hull argued that secret Government information pointed to the danger of war. They argued earnestly that repeal of the embargo woyld give pause to Hitler and possibly restrain him. | ‘Senator Borah was frankly unimpressed. Senator Borah, who defied Woodrow Wilson on the ague of Natidns, was quick to accept the challenge when the President said something about taking the issue to the country and fixing responsibility on the Senate. Mr. Borah told the President he was ready to give the country the other sitle. He scoffed at: State Department fears of war and, without intending to do so, gave personai offense to Secretary Hull. Vice President Garner intervened as peacemaker, reminding the President that he would ‘need the Senate next winter as much as Jthe Senate would heed him. x . = = It Ends Sweetly Enough

Taft Led the Pack >
William Howard Taft will not go down to ‘posterity as our greatest President, but in retrospect he begins to seem a person of far more ability than his Bull Moose opponents would allow. And as far as tonnage went, Taft, I imagine, led all the rest, for at one time he touched a full 300 pounds. .Second in this list might very well be the first and one of the greatest of our Chief Executives. I don’t. know whether history books have kept any accurate vital figures from the beginning, and so I am not certain whether or4not I can guess the weight of “Washington within three pounds. But judging from some of the portraits, most of which were designed to flatter the old hero, George Washington should have been about 250 without his shoes. Undoubtedly he and Lincoln were the most muscular out of all the list. And so when people go into hat fantasy of the impossible boxing match— Tunney against” Corbett or Joe Louis matched with Dempsey in his prime—I mention another bout which would have been quite a drawing card. I'm thinking of a wrestling match between Lincoln and Washington, and I believe my bets would go upon the Father of His Country.

Secretary Hull and the other on behalf of the Sena-|
tors, who accepted his draft without change. Although Sefators said neither the President nor Secretary Hull gave them much specific information, it may be said that their fears of war rest largely upon the belief that _the situation is tempiing to Hitler. There is doubt whether Britain and France can make the financial and economic consessions which will enable Hitler to pull himself out of the economic condition into which he has put Germany. Such-con-cessions probably would call in return for disarmament, throwing out of work some 6,000,000 German workers. Hitler would face difficulties in developing commercial production to: absorb these workers.

Possibility of a Sudden War
On the other hand, with 14,000,000 men in the axis as against 7,000,000 or so between the British and French, and with German superiority in mechanized war equipment, there is the, possibility of a quick decision through a heavy, ruthless, unrestrained attack. Even if Hitler failed to win a quick decision, he could dig in behind the Siegfried Line, and probably wangle a peace out of the democracies without being’ much worse off than before. Nevertheless, many Senators do not take these fears seriously. Some think Mr. Roosevelt is merely trying to make good an understanding with the British and French that he would get rid of the embargo. They suspect that is the reason Mr. Roosevelt is so distressed. Also there is some plain politics in this business. Some Senators see a chance to put Mr. Roosevelt in a hole by refusing to act. These wise guys have it all figured out. There won't be any war. Next winter they can come back and make funny speeches about the President's false alarm. Of course, if there should happen. to be a war, the speeches wouldn't be nearly so funny,

men who carry great responsibilities in Washington,
I realize, of course, that frequently the reports are made up of what writers have had to glean from things which people have said or left unsaid. Even at that, there is a drama behind many of these rather matter-of-fact stories and I often wonder whether the public ever really senses it. Most of these men are older and have had long experience in carrying burdens, but, perhaps, from the physical. standpoint, find some of the discomforts of life, such as heat and noise and constantly conflicting people, rather harder to bear than they did at 25. Each of them is carrying on his own particular

honest with himself, deciding whether things which are in the main minor annoyances are affecting his true judgment in big questions, or whether he is using his ‘years of experience and knowledge in the way. that he means to use them. To be honest with ‘yourself is the hardest thing in the world, and yet, on that, and that alone, perhaps, hangs the fate of the world. And how much do the
rest of us know about it? * How much responsibility
do we take ourselves in the matter of making deci sions today which ‘affect not only our own country but many countries? Sometimes I think if some great true story of what must go on in the heart and mind of any one of the men carrying such grave responsibilities, it would do a world of good in raising the standard ef citizenship for us, the average people who so comp cently leave all burdens e shoulders of: oi

Rough estimates indicate that the value of vegetables, fruits and poultry products ‘raised on a ‘oneacre tract will be about $119 a year, after expenses are indicated: Estimates, equally rough, for two. to four acres, with a cow. and sorhe pigs in addition to an acre of garden, indicate a return of more than $300 for the labor: expended. But actual experience in Penn-. sylvania, as revealed in a survey made under the supervision of Penn State College experts, shows a net return of only $189 for. the average part-time farm, which has more than 20 acres. It is apparent that. the actual return on any given farm will’ depend pretty much on« the labor and intelligence ‘applied, plus. a _ certain amount of luck. The return can be .increased through home production, or proc- . essing, ‘of many. articles usually’ purchased.
