(Ernie Pyle is on vacation and at the request of ; readers we are reprinting some of his favorite columns.) > X . GREAT FALLS, Mont., Sept. 6, 1939.—If the National Park Service can excuse me after today, I guess I'll have to be moving on to other things. In fact, I'd better move on or I'm liable to become a germenent park fixture. Tourists will be mistaking . ime for a thin brown bear and + feeding me peanuts. \ | Being somewhat of an evans gelist under the skin, I suppose I'll have to do a little preaching in this final column of the sea- “ son on the National Parks. Well, on the ‘whole, you can - find about as little fault with the National Parks as any subject you want to mention. Yet there is one big flaw, as I see it, and that is the problem of living. Which I'm afraid is about like saying that a man is phys- - ically perfect except he has a terrible stomach. 8 8 »
Hotel Life Expensive : If you want to stay a few days in a National Park, you can do it in one of three ways: 1. For nothing, in your own tent, on a Government camp ground. 2. For a reasonable price—but in a gloomy, bathtess, toiletless, hot-waterless (and usually cold) cabin of ‘some sort. 3. For an exorbitant fee, in one of the big hotels. It is possible that many tourists, out on a twoweek vacation, don’t mind being miserable. It makes them feel they're “roughing it.” Most of the big Western parks are advertised and fathered by whatever railroad runs nearest them. The railroads have built the hotels, the lodges, the chalets, the cabins. The railroads, through advertising and “tours,” have really made many- of our parks.

1 HOPE IT TICKLES you, as much as it did ‘me, to learn that James Lynchehaun, a West Indianapolis saloon keeper, inspired the writing of “The Playboy of the Western World,” the singularly arresting comedy by John Millington Synge. It was first pro- : : duced at the Abbey Theater in ‘Dublin in 1907. Five years later, it turned up at English’s. Today’s scoop came to me by way of F. J. McNelis. He’s connected with the Indianapolis Ahattoir Corp. (Sally Lee Products). What time he has left, he spends playing with the leprechauns, the delightful little people who give Irish folklore its significant) flavor. : Hl : To hear Mr. McNelis tell if, | James Lyrchehaun was a tenant of a woman named, Agnes McDonne! on the island of Achill, on the west coast of the County of Mayo, Ireland. On the night of Oct. 6, 1894, Mrs. McDonnel’'s house and barf burned down. She was injured ip the riot which followed. -e y

Sentenced to Life |
After a wild police hunt, involving many slips,
Lynchehaun was arrested on a charge of assault and’ battery with intent to kill. He was tried, convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for life. He served eight years of his sentence and then -escaped from a dungeon at Maryboro. * Lynchehaun fled to France and thence took passage for America. With the help of Pinkertons, English detectives picked him up in Indianapolis. Forthwith, he was brought before U. S. Commissioner
Charles W. Moores for extradition. |
When the Irish of Indianapolis learned of Lynchehaun’s predicament, they dropped everything to Delp Andrew
him. A Defense Committee, headed: by “Sweeney, collected enough money to employ Henry .Spaan to defend the prisoner. Most of the money came from the O’Connors, the McNelises, Donnellys, Mahoneys, Flynns, O'Mahoneys, McGowans, Readys, Quinns, Feeneys and the Kellys. Not to forget the Sweeneys, of course. “Lo : Henry Spaan talked Fer
Washington |
COLUMBUS, O., June 8—The first impression that one encounters outside of Washington is of an enormous desire to help in this emergency, or (a readiness to be told what should be done. But it is not generally realized that a second Allied Se like the 6 defeat in Flanders might thrust situations at us requiring immediate action. I The country, or at least this area, does not seem prepared psychologically for the immediate military moves that Washington thinks might have to pe undertaken in the Western Hemisphere if certain critical situations arise. : Prime Minister Churchill was bold in telling the English pepvle that the British fleet might have to be moved to Canada and the war waged from this side of the Atlantic. Our own Government has not breathed publicly any reference to the possibilities which so many officials freely discuss privately as dangers which may arise any day : oH The action of Congressional committees in 2pproving a resolution opposing transfer of any territory in this hemisphere to another non-American power helps bring the subject out into the open.

When Ferdinand Winter one of the greatest ever heard around here—he left the British lion gasping for breath. Fact is, the lion’s tail was so twisted that the only thing left to do was to acquit Mr. Lynchehaun and wish him godspeed on his way. Well, probably because of his nice treatment by the Irish around here, Mr. Lynchehaun decided to stay. To get going, he started a saloon in West Indianapolis and, as far as I know, never again was seen in a court room. As for Playwright Synge land his part in today’s piece, that didn’t happen until some time later. As a matter of fact, not until the night Mr. McNelis started reading “The Years of the Shadow,” a book of reminiscences by Katherine Tynan Hinkson. In the course of the book, Mr. McNelis ran across a thrilling account of Lynchehaun’s he in Ireland, at the
time he was supposed to have assaulted Mrs. McDonnel. At the end of Mrs| Hinkson’s account, Mr. McNelis couldn’t believe his eyes when he read: “Lynchehaun, it may be remembered, escaped from prison and got safely to A rica. His career and his

Propaganda Is Spread by Thousands
By Thomas M. Johnson NEA Service Military Writer
ASHINGTON, June 8. —Is there a fifth column in America? ; To that question Government intelligence agencies
answer “Yes.”
They know the undiluted poison of dissension, against which the President warned, is being injected into the nation’s veins
agents and propagandists. These fifth columnists are filling our free air with every sort of discordant -cry—anti-British, anti-Jewish, anti-democratic, an-ti-defense. It all meshes in with the official totalitarian propaganda that comes in increasing volume from Germany and Russia. The poison threatens the health of our body politic not only by causing dissension, but by arousing hysterical reactions. No one wants: a . nationwide witch hunt. J. Edgar Hoover of the FBI has warned against this, but he seriously acknowledges that “Recently there have been many examples of growing disrespect for the American flag and cynicism toward the freedom for which it stands.”
td ” 2. ANY Fifth Column members are not aliens nor members of the Bund or Communist Party. According to Gov-’ ernment information, some workers may be found in the estimated 500 organizations that are fellowtravelers or Nazis, Communists, or both. These organizations have varied names, patriotic or religious, such as the Christian Mobilizers. “Under various guises they get money from many sources, including all too many plain Americans, to work for totalitarian ends. One such organization has agents in several large cities picking fights with Jewish storekeep-
walk and delivering orations to curious crowds about how the Jews want to get us into war. The Black Shirt organization, long quietly active here among our 2,000,000 Italian-born, is now openly agitating for Italy's entry into the war. In Mexico, Reds and Browns are planning disorders after the election July 7, hoping to set up a totalitarian state or at least distract our attention and draw troops to the borders. Cantact is made through a German’ organization in New York City. . The Navy has taken special precautions to prevent another such outbreak of sabotage as damaged several cruisers just before Stalin became “a friend of democracy.” His pact with Hitler has hampered Reds and Nazis here, but also it has helped, for with the fellow-travelers gone, the remainder are a tough crew, well trained for the next phase and well placed. : Many Communists and Bundists are skilled workers in important industries.

found in a single aircraft plant on the Pacific coast, where 5000 are estimated to be ensconced. The first wreckings are expected to take place on the west coast and in New England. There will be slow-ups, strikes, .various disorders, it is feared. This activity has been held back because the Communazis consid- - ered Allied war orders here not sufficiently important to risk angering Americans by blowing uo plants. But now Allied orders are increasing and so is American sentiment for aiding the Allies, and our whole defense program is protection from totalitarianism.
Any time now the fifth column may get word to sabotage that program. Reds in America are aggressive, well-organized and well-placed. They make up three-fourths of the 2500 dangerous foreign agents. The FBI lists their sympathizers at an estimated total of 2,000,000 persons of all ages, races and stations, capable of anything from stealing naval intelligence files— as they have done—to throwing a brick at a cop and then squealing about “civil liberties.” ! Resolutions using identical, not
language about the FBI have been passed all over
complimentary,
the country by radical labor unions. One estimate is that Communists manipulate radical unions in eight key industries including aircraft, automobile, steel, rubber and very important communications. What that means to U. S. defense is shown graphically by a Washington map of factories doing defense work, largely in the northeast and California. “1f they start blowing up,” I was told, “the Reds will be mostly to blame.”
» ” ” ; OR this attempt, admittedly desperate, Red leaders who have been trained in the Moscow school are at work in the United States. They are taught to seize or destroy not only factories, but centers of communications, telephone and radio stations, railroad terminals, airports—all the country’s nerve °centers—as the Nazis did in Holland. Two recent developments in the news should be gratifying to fifth columnists whose immediate aim is the disruption of the new born national defense program:
1. In California, Federal au-
i
aly
thorities are investigating five attempts within 10 days to interfere with sources of power vital to three important aircraft factories. All the incidents involve cutitng of water or electric power lines. : 2. At Kearney, N.' J.,, another form of defense disruption was demonstrated. Against the advice of their/own leaders, a local of the Industrial Union of Maritime and S ilding Workers of America struck over a 10-cents-an-hour wage increase. Four new U. S. Navy vessels, * costing $36,000,000, were delayed by this strike. :
” ” ” EXICO’s Communazis have come into money and nave trained a real Red army. They are working with numerous Germans lately come to Mexico, for conspiracy and to buy supplies. Through Spaniards, they interchange information about American defense plans for Moscow and Berlin. In America, evidence multiplies of Communazi co-operation. The Bund, in secret meetings and openly, no longer is hostile to the Reds, who in turn no longer boycoftt Germany. ji
Nazi-Soviet Link Shown

Among American Fascists Done ald Shea invites “Gentile Come munists” to attend meetings of his anti-Semitic, anti-British Gentile league. : “Neighborhood councils” carry on whispering campaigns against defense, while the Youth Congress openly opposes it. The Nazi-Fascist element of America’s Fifth Column has a potential strength of a million, ace cording to the best estimates of Government investigators. Its members are being encour aged in activities of increasing scope and danger by newly are rived foreign agents. These Germans come via Sie beria, Japan and Mexico. By the same routes, our defense program is sent out; some is radioed from Mexico. Via Siberia, sometimes by Clipper aire - mail. Nazi propaganda in ine creasing amounts reaches here. ” ” »
NCREASED Fifth Column ac= tivity may be expected if Italy enters the war. There are several blackshirt organizations in New York which have been agitating |
for war despite this Government's attempts to keep Italy out. All the Fifth Column’s NaziFascist coalition needs to make itself more effective is an outstanding leader. Influential New York Germans are now said to be seeking to replace Fritz Kuhn at head of the Bund with a “real” American without Teutonic ace cent, who can weld together all the Fascist elements. Leaders of the various organizations—Bund, Mobilizers, Silver Shirts, Knights of the White Camellia on down, have discussed this. Investigation brings out strange and unexpected activities which are covered by patriotic-sounding titles of some organizations.

By EARLE M’GILL Casting Director, Columbia Broadcasting System There are two simple rules I give any youngster aspiring to .a radio acting career. 2, First, learn your business. Second, know the markets for your wares. Both are more complex than they sound. Your business is acting, so learn : : how to aet. As in ‘any other busiiness, you need training. Where should. you get it? If possible, I advise an American university. In the past few years many universities have built ‘up magnificent courses in the theater, where any young actor A can receive trainsR ing from talented directors. Mr. McGill T h e University of Iowa, for example, has a stage which rivals any New York stage, excepting Radio City Music Hall. Many of these large universities operate radio stations, too.

dio. So, if you are lucky, your first acting training may be of two varieties—stage and radio. The acting profession used to offer a valuable rough-and-tumble training for the youngster in the stock companies almost every fairsized city boasted. Today stock -is almost dead, and:summer stock is still too scattered and casual to provire an adequate substitute.
Little theaters are valuable, however. The young.actor should interest himself in a good little theater group. I believe that whether jou seek a career on the stage, radio, or in the films, the.theater is your best preliminary training. There you feel an audience; you learn how to play to it. : You learn ensemble work, integrating your portrayal with the rest of the cast. You learn the million and one general tricks of the stage. | After that, it’s not too hard to pick up the specialized techniques you need for radio and films. | By now, we'll say, you're an adequate actor. So you study the markets for your talents. , | One serious defect among youngsters coming to New York for a radio career is their complete lack of knowledge of the structural set-
