Give Light and the People Will Find Their Own Way

THE RINGING OF THE BELLS : THE Scottish Rite cathedral carillon is being played this summer for the first time since the world was at war. A special recital in tribute to Booth Tarkington will be given Monday evening, anniversary of his birthday. Mr, Tarkington's favorite composers were Bach, Brahms and Mozart, and Verdi's great “Requiem” was “one of the selections he enjoyed most, wrote Mrs. Tarkington in approving the memorial recital by Carillonneur James R. Lawson. The recital Monday will closes with the Bach * chorale, “Come Sweet Death.” There is deep association between the ringing of the bells and peace; of which Mr. Tarkington was such a militant advocate. And there is the same association with war and death. ’ The bells of French North Africa were stilled until the allies invaded Normandy, and then every church was the center of jubilant pealing music. And the bells of England were stilled during the war, too, because the tolling of th bells would be signal of German invasion. In Italy an France, the ringing of the bells told of peace, just as they did on the other side of the world when the Americans drove the Japanese out of the Philippines. Dedication of the recital Monday night to Mr. Tarkington brings to mind his strong feeling that it was as vital to win the peace as to win the war—and the question of whether we have forgotten war and the responsibilities of

“1 do not agree with a word that you

your right to say it." — Voltaire.

i HEN history is written a few hundred year hence, of the rise and decline of the American republic, the outstanding event of -the 79th congress, in our opinion, will be passage of the La Follette-Monroney bill. "This is the first legislation in our generation designed to recapture for the legislative branch of government the power and responsibility outlined for it in the constitution, which is our original charter of government. Over the decades, the authority and prestige of the lawmaking branch have been whittled away by the relentless encroachments of the ever-expanding executive department—so much so that even the power of the purse has been reduced to a figment of tradition. ~~~ “The La Follette-Monroney bill, by stipulating for members of congress salaries and retirement more in line with what a free market offers for such talent, by setting up a more efficient committee system and providing more expert . research and counsel for our lawmakers and more effective budgetary controls, will prolong our years of self-govern-ment. And the small additional costs should be saved many times over in reducing the billions wasted in the executive branch. Bob La Follette of Wisconsin and Mike Monroney of Oklahoma have earned a great place in American history.

“GOVERNMENT” ISN'T SACRED READING the always interesting and occasionally informative daily column of Mrs. Eleanor Roosevelt yesterday, which included a discussion of a pamphlet written by someone who favors one of the various projects for socialized medicine, we ran smack into this quote: “The American Medical association . , . is soliciting a war chest to fight the U. S. government . . . the American Medical association versus the American people . . . the guardians of health determined to preserve sickness.” How's that, again? There is no law creating any such plan. The government of the United States has never adopted a policy favoring any such plan. Such a plan has been proposed by * a few people in the executive branch of the government and by a few in the legislative branch. That is all, If the American Medical association, then, chooses to oppose the adoption of such a policy, in what way is it “fighting the United States government”? Or the American people, whose wishes are not known on the subject? Or, just how is it trying to keep people sick? We've been treated to a lot of just that kind of thinking lately. Anyone who disagreed with Chester Bowles, for instance, over what kind of law congress ought to enact, was “fighting the U. S. government.” How then, about anyone who opposes Rep. Andrew Jackson May, also a member of “government”? The point is, of course, that “government” isn’t sacrosanct, Government can be wrong. Government can, and often does, change overnight, both as to personnel and policy. Without any consideration at all of the merit, or lack of merit, of these medical proposals, we'd like to emphasize that opposing them is not “fighting the government” because the government never has sponsored them, and that fighting the proposal of some individual who happens to have a title of some sort isn’t, necessarily, fighting the . American people, who like as not never heard of the fellow and who wouldn't like him if they did.

"People Didn't Come Here From South for Fun, but Opportunity"

By John Bush, 2204 Eden Place

I don't mean to have a quarrel

do take exceptions to his remarks about Kentucky and Tennessee people taking Marion county without firing a shot. : Now he said there are 60,000 Kentucky and Tennessee people here now. I would like to know what would happen or what does the judge think would happen if all these people went back home. be left to do the dirty slave labor work. You see these people are poor The most of them never had a chance to get a good education. They had to start out working when they were young. They got very little money for their work, too. When work was pientiful here they heard about it, and the wages, t0o,|which were a great deal more than get away with it.

came and the industry here was glad to get them. Now that is the reason they came. It was not for relief benefits. Here in Indiana all you can hear is college, college, college. , . . Sure, the college professor has to make a living and the young man doesn’t want to ever get his hands dirty

from work, he wants to tell someone else how to do it. I wonder about the young lady who doesn’t want to marry and keép house herself, she wants maids to do the housework and cooking or she wants to be a career woman, In the South when a body is big and old enough to go to work and earn a few dollars he is put to work to help the father and mother and the girls the same way and the girls are taught to cook a cup of coffee without burning it. These people from Kentucky and Tennessee want to stay here because they have most everything here that they haven't got in the South and the place is big and fascinating and they can get a few dollars more for their labor. If they misbehave here, it is not because they misbehave in the South. No, the truth is they are trying to copy off our own Indiana people and they cannot get away with it because they are not educated enough. Why if our young men and young girls had to conduct them selves here the way they do in the South they would call their parents and everyone else crazy. You see, it's like this: When a little girl sees her mother smoke cigarets and drink whisky she naturally thinks it's all right, and whatever a boy sees his dad do is all right, and so it is with these people from the South. I don’t think they are doing a thing our Indiana people don’t do, only they just can't

Yes, I guess you have guessed it. I know these people. I have traveled all through the South; not just once, but dozens of times. I know them well. I have lived with them.

Mary's yesterday I found myself close to Uniontown and decided to stop in again at the Brotherhood

farms and see how the union was getting along running this place with union labor, and as always I found everything moving ahead according to the best modern industrial practices. I was a little surprised, as I drove in, to see Old Man Freysnagle there—you remeinber I told you he and his.two sons and his shiftless brother used to do all the work on this farm before the union bought it, but had to be fired on account of their unco-operative and even reactionary attitude toward union organization. But there he was, with a milk bucket on each arm, headed for the barn. It seems there was a little matter of union discipline responsible. After the Brotherhood had hired its full farm crew they found out that the only one of the 27 that knew how to milk a cow was Hank Smithers, the rest being city fellows that hadn’t been around farms very much. So, of course, Hank got the milking assignment, and was doing it very well, so everybody said. The hitch came about overtime. ' Like everybody else under the contract Hank had a six-hour day. That was plenty of time to milk the eight

got killed in the wire fence, which only took him about two hours at a milking, and only had to be dane twice a day. But cows like to be milked morning and evening, and that would have spread Hank's four hours’ work over about twelve hours time. The grievance committee ruled that out, but since there wasn't anybody to put on another shift, why Hank had been doing it on overtime, at time-and-a-half. That is he worked four hours, but he got paid for six hours straight time and six hours overtime because two of his hours were worked at 7 in the} morning and the other two at 5 in the afternoon. That made it a little high, since

Hank got 15 hours pay at $1.98% an hour every working day, and also had to work Saturdays and Sundays at double time, since cows won't wait, and Hank was making altogether 123 hours pay a week, or $244.15, althofigh he only actually worked 28 hours, an arrangement that pleased Hank very much. The Brotherhood didn’t like it very well, but could see no other way to get

the cows milked. But the other members of the union, that is the Tillers Guild, got to complaining about it, saying it wasn't fair for Hank to get all that dough for hardly any work just because he knew how to milk and they didn't. Some sald Hank ought to pay bigger dues, and some said he ought to split with the rest of them, but Hank said the hell with them, and finally they held a meeting and voted Hank Gut of the guild for insubordination and anti-union activities. So, of course, he had to be fired, then, because only a member in good standing could work under the contract and anything else was scab labor, which no union could tolerate. The guild -decided it would pass this good assignment around to all the members, each one working a week at it in turn, which seemed fair enough. The first turn fell to Sammy Hill from Brooklyn, and Sammy said while he never had milked a cow He had drunk plenty of milk in his time and it didn’t look so hard, and started for the barn, They found him lying just outside a stall there a couple of hours later, and Old Man Freysnagle, who had come by to borrow a monkey wrench helped to pick him up and call the doctor for him. Then Old Man Freysnagle looked in the stall, and he yells that ain’t no cow ye durn jackass that’s a jackass in that stall, and sure enough it turns out Sammy was even less experienced thar they had thought. Well, to make a long story short, they finally arranged to hire Old Man Freysnagle to milk, and since he won't join the union why they give him a working permit at the small fee of $250, which he won't pay, either, so the Brotherhood pays it, and the cows are milked regular, and Old Man Freysnagle says its the best job he ever had, although there is a little complaint in the guild about the pay he’s getting. But it only goes to show there is no situation that can't be worked out under union regulations if both parties are willing to co-operate and give and take a little. ® # = “LOVE THAT MAN RICHARD POOR FROM EAST ANANIAS” By A.

REPORTS FROM ROME that the Italians are turning against the allies recall the peculiar attitude of the nationals of that country, where I landed just three years ago today in the Sicilian invasion. Granting that the Fascist slogans painted on the walls of the buildings at the entrance to every town and on many walls in the towrs as well . . . were a part of Mussolini's propaganda campaign, still it was most unusual for everyone to deny that he had been a Fascist or . . . if the evidence was written down against him, to hear him protest he had to belong to the party to live. Almost every Sicilian would make two statements. First, to query whether you knew his cousin in Brooklyn. And second, to deny any belief in fascism.

Quickly Sought Equality FROM THE BEGINNING, the American and British troops were greeted as liberators both in Sicily and on the Italian mainland. It was assumed that we'd forgive Italy's “stab in the back,” as Mr, Roosevelt termed her declaration of war against us. It soon became unnecessary to go armed, because of this general friendliness . . . although more than 100 Italians were executed as spies who were giving information to the Germans. On the day of Italian surrender, when we were in close truch with those who were arranging for the Italian armies to lay down their arms, we were in constant touch with a secret radio station at Rome. Field Marshal Alexander remarked at the staff conference that morning that Marshal Bagdolio, who was brain-trusting the surrender, “was caught be.tween the devil on the doorstep (the allied forces) and the devil in the house (the Germans)!” The same vagueness of attitude prevailed after the Italians had “been given the dubious status of ‘“cobelligerents.” They strutted their stuff even more than ever. Gayly-uniformed and be-medaled Italians assumed that we'd forget that only a few short weeks before they had been killing allied "troops with zest . .

DEAR BOSS: A TRIBUTE TO JOHN R. KISSINGER, Hoosier Spanish-American war hero who volunteered to contract yellow fever in Major Walter Reed's great experiment in-tropical medicine, has been placed in the Congressional Record. Rep, Forest A. Harness (R. Ind), whose district includes Mr. Kissinger's home town of Huntington, put the tribute in the Record. Included was an editorial from the Huntington Herald-Press of July 17 commenting upon Mr. Kissinger’s death and entitled “We Salute You.” That was the tribute Major Reed paid Mr. Kissinger and the other soldiers who had” proven his theory that yellow fever comes from a certain type of mosquito. They let themselves be bitten by these fever carriers. :

Mistaken Identity

READING OF MR. KISSINGER'S DEATH in Florida reminded me of my own meeting with him. It is a somewhat curious episode, perhaps pointless, except to prove that Washington was confused and confusing long before world war IL A movie had been written around Mr. Kissinger and his comrades. ‘It was entitled “Yellow Jack.”

located here, it was decided to have the premier at the Capitol theater with the customary first night fanfare. The late Senator Prederick VanNuys (D. Ind), was selected as the principal sponsor. Mr. Kissinger came from Huntington to be present. Ben Stern, then VanNuys’' secretary, invited the press. I arrived a little late at the theater. Ben told me to tell the doorman that I was Senator VanNuys’' guest. Somehow the usher must have thought I was the senator. For I soon found myself in the same box with Mr. Kissinger, There was a talk by the theater manager, after the picture had been shown, and the next thing I knew the spotlight was on our box. Mr. Kissinger was introduced, stood and bowed. Then came the an-

THE TIME HAS COME for Americans to assess the meaning—to themselves as well as to its victims —of the forceable Sovietization now being carried out in central and eastern Europe. . It is a process which has been in operation for more than a year. It is no longer possible to hide or doubt its implications to humanity at large. On the basis of a close study of events during the past year in 10 countries and parts of countries—Finland, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria, Albania, Yugoslavia, Hungary, Czechoslovakia, Austria and Germany—it is not dificult to outline its essential characteristics.

No Democratic Concepts IT VARIES FROM THE MILD type of Sovietization being carried out in Finland to the rapid and violent type carried out in Yugoslavia and the Balkans, Sovietism is not to be confused with the benign form of democratic socialism which we were accustomed to in Scandinavia before the war, which is now growing up in Britain, and which is likely to develop in most of the other countries of western Europe. Despite glib assertions of its practitioners and apologists, Sovietism has nothing in common with democracy—which is more a condition than a creed

SHAKESPEARE SAID: “Be not afraid of greatness: Some people are born great; some achieve greatness; and some have greatness thrust upon 'em.” He might have said, looking ahead a century or so: “But George Rogers Clark just skirted the edge of greatness.” This is how, backing up a bit. Clark was born in the backwoods of colonial Virginia, between the Blue Ridge and the Allegheny mountains, two and one-half miles from Shadewell, where Thomas Jefferson was born. The two men never forgot this two-and-one-half-mile link of their birthplaces.

Sought Order in Territory CLARK'S PARENTS, substantial farmer and small planter folk, sent him, at 11, to Scotch Donald Robinson’s private classical school in Carrollton county, Virginia, where James Madison and John Tyler were pupils. But in six or eight months Clark flunked out at this school, and turned with zest to the boisterous, rollicking frontier, where he was to cut a wide and distinguished swath later. This frontier was the cockpit of North America. Broadly speaking, it lay between the Allegheny mountains and the Mississippi river, the Canadian border and the Gulf of Mexico. By 1778, six years after George Rogers Clark had made his first trip in this raw, rich patch of earth, a crisis approached. At once the Indians were alert. The French, beaten and frustrated by their defeat 15 years before, were ripe for a try to recoup their domain. The British, victorious in 1763, were loath to spare, appease, or satisfy anybody. The American colonials came barging in by ones, in groups, by the thousands—30,000 in> the five years ending in 1768. Ten years later their deadly sin was, in the eyes of the Indians, French, and British, that wherever they squatted in a halt they stayed to live and multiply. The Spaniards, at New Orleans, were poised to throt{tle the tiade of these clashing groups

they even were arrogant in the attitude toward their

conquerors. So, I'm not surprised that a bitter anti-allied cam« paign now is under way in Italy , , '. where we now are being accused of “a new stab in the back” at Italy, The “stab” is the intefnationalization of . Trieste,'which Secretary Byrnes advocates. As Lee Hill observed in a dispatch to The Times, the Italians have gotten the idea that they were allied partners instead of a defeated enemy . largely due to an over-selling job. This job was done by the psychological warfare branch of allied force headquarters. These were the “experts” who sought to quickly welcome the “Eyeties” into the family of nations, ignoring the years of guilt for the fascism which was so popular.

Politicians Created Confusion WHEN THE ITALIANS finally offered to hélp fight the Germans, hardly any professional soldiers wanted their assistance. I have been told by American, British and French combat generals as well as staff officers that they wanted no part of Itallan forces. “It takes two divi sions for every one Italian division,” they said, “one to watch them and the other to replace them when they retreat.” : » Despite this disfavor, some Italian guerillas in northern Italy did contribtue to allied victory , -, but it seems startling to find the nation as a whole considering itself one of the allies instead of a defeated enemy. : Perhaps American politics had a great deal to do with that: attitude. Such people as Lt./Col. Charles Poletti, former lieutenant-govérnor of New York and for a brief time chief executive of that state, extolled the virtues of the good neighbor policy in their military government roles . . . and aided to the general lack of understanding by the Italians of the implications of their defeat. They had in mind the large blocs of Italian-American votes at home. The Italians might well realize that they were an enemy, and that they were defeated. And that the victors write the peace terms, !

shifted elsewhere.

Next day I learned that Senator VanNuys (wholly unrecognized) had been given a back seat. I certainly was embarrassed. But Mr. Kissinger didn’t seem to really mind. I guess he got accustomed to being isolated with pests when he was a young soldier in the Philippines. Only two Indiana congressmen, Reps. May Madden, Gary Democrat, and Charles M. LaFollette, Evansville Republican, voted for the British loan. But that will not keep Hoosiers from helping finance it. A table was presented during the loan debate which showed that Indiana's share will be $95,978,288. The same arithmetic shows that Indiana's share of the national debt is now $6.855,692,000. One of the latest freaks of attempted dictatorship came in my mail It was a one-long-paragraph release announcing that the National Marine Engineers’

—but it does have a great deal in common with Fascism and Nazism, and with Falangism as well. It is a malignant combination of socialism, statism and imperialism, and it is now being imposed on the helpless peoples of 10 nations, allies and former enemies alike, by force, terror and guile. Sovietism, like Fascism and Nazism, means the dictatorship of a single party, or bloc of parties embraced in a single Communist front, and the ultimate abolition of any opposition whatsoever to any aspect of the official mass creed. At the moment this creed is known as “popular democracy.” It is nothing of the sort, but it will be so called as long as this euphemistic mockery serves to lull the western democracies into continuing our policy of appeasement and non-intervention.

AS A RESULT of a war from which they expected liberation, central and eastern Europeans, allies as well as enemies, are confronted today with a form of slavery far more terrible—because it is more complete—than any of the previous forms of despotism they have had to face in their long and tragic history. And because we, the Americans, have thus far consented to what is being done to them, they will gradually come to blame us as well as the Russians,

SAGA OF INDIANA . . . By Wiliam A” Marlow Clark's Victory at Old Vincennes

In April, 1777, George Rogers Clark cast an appraising eye over this scene. With the skill of a master strategist, he boldly formed a plan to link colonial America, rolling west, with the beaten French and the wily Indians against the British, snarling at them all, to bring order out of the chaos of this whole western frontier.

With the authority and the support of Patrick Henry, governor of Virginia, Clark left.the falls of the Ohio river early in 1778 with 153 men for Kaskaskia, which he captured July 4, 1778. Quickly following this, he captured Cahokia and nearby villages up the Mississippi river. Six months later he left for the attack on Vincennes, which he captured February 25, 1779.

Instead of the ground swell, this was the flood tide of George Rogers Clark's career, Here was where he missed the boat. Casting the die, had he pushed boldly on after victory at Vincennes, he doubtless could have captured Detroit, With Detroit in American hands at the close of the revolutionary war, the Canada that became permanent British territory would have been American, and the entire continent of ‘North America, down to Mexico, would have flown the flag of the U, 8. A.

Vincennes Was Turning Point

THE TOUGH SPOT Clark was in at Vincennes is no alibi for greatness. Caesar, Napoleon, Alexander, Wellington, Washington and MacArthur grew great as the going got rough. They did not linger and hope for the opportunity. They made one. y. However, George Rogers -Clark made a bold try with great success, though not an immortal one. He .did this on Indiana soil. This pointed the state to its ‘part in a great nation. Part of its soil was the heritage of his life. . ' >
