zeal .synthesis, indifference sets in
and the rosy dawn fades into the
darkness of the darkest nights.
This analytical phase of courtship
is usually the result of being hypnO-
tized by the opinions of others re-
garding the physical or mental quail
ties of either one of the lovers. In
this way nature is cheated out of her
selective forces time out of number.
Love must be fed by the flames of
divine passion and not by wintry
fault finding. True love sees the
qualities of the object of its affec-
ton from the depths of ones soul
and not from the angle and vision of
other people.
In conclusion, I wish to emphasize
that courtship y is the most trying
phase of a young persons life. It's

KENNEDY AND RODRIGUEZ ARE
READY FOR TRIAL ANY TIME

REHDI TUX HlAL ANY IME
''If American citizens are forced
into a war we would be justified in
starting a bloody revolution here at
home-a thousand times justified"
Did Aid. John c. Kennedy say these
words in a speech in Hold Carriers
hall last Friday night? If he did then
he ought to be impeached by the city
council, tried by his peers, and, if
found guilty, then formally thrown
out of the city council according to
q Tribune editorial. Along with
Kennedy, Aid. Rodriguez ought to be
expelled for speaking reasonable
words" as the Tribune looks at it.
Kennedy and Rodriguez said today
they are ready for trial on charges of
reasonable utterances any time the
city council wants to start impeach-
ment proceedings.
There was a very important part
of my speech that is not quoted at all
and which ought to be printed if
am to be tried for treason, - said AID
Kennedy, as his face lit up with a
9th ward smile.

mitted on the working class Of Chi

lence' insOlent and degrading to the

fare of Germany was a violation Of
the rights of humanity, the slaughter
and the violence of the police depart
ment and the city government infiict-
ed on the working class of Chicago
during the last garment strike was
thousand times more a justifable
cause of war, a thousand times more
of a violation Of the rights of hui

Morton L. Johnson of the Public
Ownership league gave this explana-
ton of why the Tribune attacks the
two aldermen:
''The Tribune estate trustee, VIM
G. Beale, is chief counsel for the
Commonwealth Edison Co. and a pal
of Sam insult. The G. E. Co., the gas
company, the L roads and all the In
suH interests want to get Kennedy
and Rodriguez oUsted from the city
council. These two aldermen have
constantly attacked the Tribune's
projects for helping the utilities to
fresh profits. Rodriguez, for instance,
incurred the insult ill-will when he
asked for a council investigation Of
the Hogarth charges that insult is an
owner of coal mines and the insult
profits as a coal magnate selling to
the Edison Co. should be known.
