FOES OF CHRISTIANITY

The most dangerous enemies of a
real, living Christianity (not neees-
sarily divested of earnest beliefs
held within the BOUNDS OF G00O
SENSE AND TOLERATION) are
those who insist upon choking to
death freedom of sincere inquiry,
of searching after the truth, of free
dom of straight thinking, of be-
lieving and disbelieving, and upon
insistently maintaining that their
brand of Christianity, or belief, is
the only brand that should be per-
mitted to exist and deserve respect
and consideration Notwithstanding
all pretentious and egoistic claims
to the contrary, the enemies of ra-
tional righteousness and progressive
human enlightenment are the foes of
all that is good and true in Chris
tianity, and in all mankind.

A TRAvEsTY ON JUSTICE

Colonel William Mitchell, now un-
der court martial trial for his fear
less exposure of the rotten condi-
tions in the U. S. Air Service, de-
serves the undying gratitude of the
American public. He has made him
self a martyr in order to get the
truth before the people-to prove
that death and destruction have fol
lowed in the wake of the narrow
minded tyrannical policy of the
cheap politicians who have control
led the Air Service.
And if you have read the news
papers you have been amazed at tie
overwhelming evidence of inefficien-
cy, gross neglect and wanton waste
of life and property which has been
presented by Mitchell and his sup
porters-all of them qualified ex-
perts in the business of flying. Navy
and Army men alike have joined in
the avalanche of proof that Mitchell
is RIGHT, and that the oligarchy at
Washington who have been respon
sible for the gross waste and con-
tempt of human life MUST BE RE-
MOVED By rights they should be
charged with murder!
But consider the heart-breaking
task confronting Mitchell and his
counsel:
Last week Major II. NJ. Hickman
was on the stand in Mitehells sup
port. Congressman Reid, who is de-
Tending Mitchell. asked him, "Do you
know of any case where an aviator
has been ordered by a non-flying
officer to take the air, and has been
killed as a result ?"
Before Major Hickman could ans
wer this the question was ruled out
by Major F. B. Wilbey, who was
conducting the prosecution. Think
of it, A question of life and death,
and yet the oligarchy of the Army
forbade an answerl
Then Congressman Reid asked an
other question-"Do you know OF
any case where naval pilot was
allowed to fly in plane that was
condemned? ?"
And before Major Hickman could
be stopped, he answered, 81 D0r
Whereupon the oligarchy of the
Army again prevailed, and Major
Hickman was forbidden to give the
details and names of such mon
strous criminality.
Does that court martial oligarchy
want the truth? 1T DOES MOTT
Why don't they want the truth ?
BECAUSE 1T WILL SHOW THEM
UP IN ALL THEIR sTRUTTING
DISDAINI
"A travesty on Justice you say!
Words are weak things with which
to express the disgust and condem-
nation of the nation against such
glaring inefficiency and disregard Of
human life!
And Mitchell is the first man in
the history of the United States
who has had the courage to face
the fire of a tyrannical court mar
tial! But if they hoped to gag him
by the threat of punishment, then
their hopes are dashed to the
ground. The nation is learning the
truth, and for it the nation should
eternally grateful to Colonel WI
liam Mitchell.
