Political Unrest In America Last November this nation experienced a political revolution, which made about as sweeping a change in control of the federal government as was possible with only its legislative branch at stake. Signs of revolt continue on a smaller scale. These are found in urban as well as rural areas. Housecleaning moves in New York City are aimed at the old and usually notorious Tammany machine. A dispatch from Chit cago reports that Mayor Ed Kelly, whose political organization was treated roughly at the last election, is planning to retire from politics as well as from office when his present term expires. This, if true, will widen opportunities for new political leadership in our second largest citv.
Something interesting is happening in Tennessee, where.
last year a group ol "outs" led by veterans ended the 10'year domination of the Cantrell machine i.n Athens and McMinn county after a pitched battle for control of ballot boxes: The Cantrell majhine was affiliated with the Biggs organization in adjoining Polk county. These groups co-operated closely w;.th "Boss" Crump of Memphis, enabling the latter to extend his control into eastern Tennessee. Both houses of the state legislature have just approved bills to cripple the Biggs organization by abolishing one Polk county office and discontinuing the fee system in another. These developments make one wonder whether Crump's grip on the legislature is slipping or he merely deems it wise not to intervene in a "local" situation. The semi-anarchy in Georgia does not conform to the rattern of change in the rest of the country. In that state a progressive revolution was started nearly f'.ve years ago, when Ellis Arnall was elected governor. It was incomplete s;nce the legislature and the election machinery remained in the hands of reactionaries. The latter staged a political comeback last year because Arnall could nnt. hr a canrlirhitp
to succeed h'P'sc'f ancL-his forces lacked dynamic substitute leadership. The death of Gene Talmadge having threatened to deprive them of the fruits of victory, the reactionaries are resorting to force and extra-legal devices to seize control. The outcome of this strange struggle remains in doubt. V But elsewhere, for the most part, political unrest supplies a salutary warning to individuals and groups in power that they are, after all, only reresentatives of the citizens that elect thein, and that their continued occupancy of public offi.ee depends upon ability to give service and satisfaction. Even worthy "ins" do not find it easy to retain that status. There is always danger that political unrest may precipitate changes that are unfortunate, that mean retrogression rather than progress. That is one of the risks a democracy takes. But in general Ameiicans accept those risks along with the advantages of free elections, and this attitude bodes ultimate reprisals against any group that would prevent the voters from expressing their will.

Sure, and a grand day it was or the fine folks of Broadway A-ljun Finian McLoncrgan purloined the magic pot of gold from ,t;h( leprechauns of Glocca Morra and brought it to Rainbow Valley, Missitucky, U. S. A. 'For as you'll be hearin' anrl every word of it the truth such a spell was cast that even the critics were dancing about in the streets. And there came about such wonders, that from the 4Gtn Street Theatre, where "Finian's Rainbow" car's its magic spell, to the A d e 1 p h i, where "Street f'r.s" was magically trans-fe-rrnod into a great American foil: opera, the rainbow 'seemed to have two ends. All of which, eliminating the writer's Grade B brogue, means just this: The two musicals, for which the Broadwayfarers have boen wailing, have finally arrived. "Finian's Rainbow" is a delilh'i'iil combination of fantasy, tmieality, satiric social commentnry, melodious melodies expert (Hi-ection and some of the best rVtncing to be seen hereabouts. Not since Annie got her gn has st-' "Mi a sure-fire hit come to town. "Street Scene" is something els?. With Elmer Rice's classic melodrama of the New York s'ums as a framework, Kurt Weil, considered by many to be the best American music maker of the moment, has written a score that runs the scale from street cries and jitterbug to the grim overtones of fast-approaching tragedy. Our next column will consider this "dramatic opera" in greater detail. Meanwhile, it is of "Finian's
Rainbow'' and its combined enchantments thnt we write now. It concerns Finian, a craei!:brained Irish spellmaker, wfco suddenly appears with his chnvfiring daughter, Sharon, in thejer.d of the poor Southern share croppers. He is pursued by Og, undercover man for the leprechauns, w;ho is sworn to take the magic crock back to Ireland. Finian hides it under a reck. And since anyone who makes a wish wlii'e standing over the crock is ccrtr.in to have it come true the darndest things happen. ' Engaged in all this fantastic hokus-pokus is Ella Loan, vbr:-e four years of service as a USO entertainer in wartime caurrd her to be decorated by Gen. Mark Clark and also to be absent from the showshops. Here she is a romantic coleen to end coleens.

I slid the sea-eye; fhsy were there all right. THE fat man in the wheelchair knew the name of every man on our ship. Ralls said, "So you follow me closely?" "Indeed," came the steeped-in-ice reply. The conversation was cold and guarded. The fat man, who called himself Van der Ruysdaal, was friendly only to poor Carter in whom he seemed to sense an ally as sick as himself. In the end, ve got permission to remain a week to trim sail on the Quean. "A village of armed natives lies beyond my mansion," the fat man said meaningly. But Ralls could not remain quiet long. When natives were set to guard the beach, he got them drunk and sent them diving for pearls until one caught his foot in a twofoot clam and was picked clean in a few minutes. Van der Ruysdaal flogged the natives unmercifully for it. ' Is'ext day I rowed around the lagoon and slid the sea-

I debated, wisdom against desire, pearls versus what I felt to be our only sane move to leave before there was open combat with the Dutchman. But the sight was too much for me I resolved to stay and have them. Ralls, 1 learned, also was determined to stay despite our frigid reception. But he was interested in more than pearls." The beautiful yacht in the lagoon, we discovered, was owned by Harmenzoon Van Schreeven, half-brother to Van Ruysdaal, and in its party was his lovely daughter, .Teleia. I saw her that night.
