"WHO IS MY NEIGHBOR?" Something higher is expected of Christian peoples than the political food game now being played by governments, with starving people as pawns. The United States, particu-larly-r-with it3 people the best fed in the world should not wait for more generous giving by less fortunate countries. What individual, on learning that a neighbor was in danger of starvation, would postpone all-out help' until hie had received assurance that others in the neighborhood would also contribute ? Does an ocean instead of a fence make one less a neighbor to famine-stricken human beings? Perhaps the world's concept of neighbor needs refreshment. One dictionary definition is "a fellow man." Jesus, in the parable of the Samaritan, gives a wider application still. The man who fell among thieves lived nowhere near the Samaritan was not even known to him. But did the Samaritan shrug off his responsibility for that reason? Did he say to the priest and the Levite, "I'll help this stranger if you will"? No. He bound up the wounded man,. set him upon his own beast, brought him to an inn, and guaranteed to pay for the stranger's food and lodging. The Samaritan, by Jesus' high standards was a "neighbor." . To pj-ove themselves neighbors worthy of the name, it is riot enough, for Americans to give out of their . surplus or merely help to tide, over this three-month period the nations who fell among, the Fascist thieves. Some guarantee is heeded that the same Situation will not have to be faced next winter. Whatever stringent measures, including rationing, may , be necessary to furnish that guarantee should be taken fearlessly and with confidence in the innate neighborliness of the American people.

POLITICAL COMMENT NEWS: "MAN BITES DOG" (Republican corruption and tie-up with beer, flayed, by Republicans, Jheniselves.j, For a long time, we've been exposing the outrageous tie-up between Republican politicians pf Indiana and the beer business. Now we are able to back up our statements with evidence furnished by the republicans themselves, and charges hurled at republican leaders by members of their own party. 1 What The Republicans ; Are Saying Item 1. The Indianapolis Star front page editorial of Tuesday, April 16: "The unholy alliance between beer, liquor and the party . . . If we get prohibition in this state it will be due to the present republican leadership with its close financial tieup with beer and liquor. . .. .."No other state has better laws for the control of beer and liquor. The trouble is in the administration of the laws. The most grievous mistake the. republican party ever made in this state was to set up the republican county chairmen as beer czars in their respective counties. By that one act the party become a full-fledged partner with beer and liquor. The administration of the I state and county liquor boards was hamstrung by that action. The boards are now almost figureheads . and get their answers from the political leaders." " The editorial goes on to charge that" James Bradford, "The big beer baron of the "state," sits, "in open, unchallenged and boastful cotrol of the republican party in Marion county," In what the Star says it believes are Fried Chicken Steaks - French Fries The Kitchenette 118 S. Court Tele. 462 Sullivan Hdw. & Furn. Co. 319 .W, Wash. Phone 28.

"political activities iti violation of the law," but which go un

challenged ' because "the alcoholic beverages commission and the prosecutor are under obligation to Jimmie." ... , The Star goes further: It offers as "another effective bit of evid ence" the recent unlawful pro cedure in the case of the appli cation of Louis Markun for re newal of his liquor license, and it ties in the governor with this case, when it states, "Instead of the ABC handling the application, as the law provides, a conference was held in ' th$ governor's office at which Bradford, Ostrom and Daniels were present. Jimmie was asked for his advice on the Markun application. In other words, as the republican boss of the county he was asked to rass on the applica. tion of a competitor." "Governor Gates," the editorial points out, "is the only man who can take the the republican party out of beer and liquor but he by silence and acquiesence allowed the set-up to corrupt and demoralize his party." The editorial adds, "Gates and Bradford are now political bed fellows." A Few More Items Item 2. Republican Mayor Tyndell, convinced that the Marion County Liquor Board has no power, has publicly blamed the state Alcoholic Beverage Commission for failure to "clean up conditions in the city's 'trouble Spot taverns'," of which he says there are 75 to 80 but he has expressed little hope of gettting anything done to better matters, because "the AfoC is full of politics." Item 3. Henry E. Ostram, Republican county chairman, is described as "a power-mad dictator for prosecuting attorney, Judge Judson L. Stark Of Superior Court, Room 1. Stark says that Ostrom has made it clear that his first concern has been to "permit an iron-clad party machine," based solely upon patronage, which Ostrom insists on handing out, himself. Item 4. James M. Dawson, Indianapolis attorney, who has also announced his candidacy for republican nomination for Marion County Prosecutor, hits no less uncompromisingly at leaders of his own party,. raying' "It is well known that graft, corruption and commercialized vice is flourishing in our community, and when we bring those to account, whose duty it is to uphold the laws, but Instead acquiesce in graft and corruption, either for private gain or political favors, then we shall have a community in which to live and be proud."

"What do you want a cannon for?" Kearny asked. CONGRESS was highly pleased with the report prepared by Jessie and John. A new expedition was authorized and the entire family traveled to the Benton home in St. Louis where John would ready his exploring party. John had Jessie invite Colonel Stephen Kearny to dinner. He asked the guest, "Colonel, could you lend me.a cannon for the expedition?" "A cannon! What ever do you want a cannon for?" "I expect serious trouble with the Indians. Besides, I think it time we demonstrated the Army can move its heavy equipment across the continent ..." Colonel Kearny protested that the English and Mexicans, both also interested in the Pacific coast, might view the move as a hostile act. But at John's insistence, he gave in.
