TINE value of human life, as
Il Catholicism teaches, is found
ed on the facts that every indi-
vidual belongs to the exclusive do
m1nion of God and that for every
individual Christ suffered and
died.
Life begins by creative act of
God, producing the human soul
and cooperating with the procre-
atlVe activity of the parents; and
human life is destined ultimately
for happiness with God.
Human life, therefore, in it's
beginning, in its development and
end, belongs exclusively to God.

The state may defend from
criminals, by imposition of the
death sentence, the purposes for
which the state exists. And SOL
diers may inf1ict death in a just
war. namely, one in the defense
Of the violated rights of their
country.
Moreover, reason teaches that
euthanaSia is violation of most
fundamental law of nature. Every
appetite set up by nature is di-
rected to the fuller life of that
appetite and the individual to
whom it belongs.
No being by its nature aims at

Another is that Britain desires
closer cooperation with the United

to get it is to appear to be leaning
toward Japan.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 12-There
need be no fall of America, as there

To make use of national resources

ence with their proper function
ing.
Euthanasia is a wilfull tenden-
cy, contrary to the tendency of
ones whole nature. There could
be no more unequivocal violation
Of nature than this.
EuthanaSia or homicide, wheth-
er self-inflicted or inflicted by
others, is unnatural as homo
seXuality is unnatural. The one
tends to the notification of man
himself.
GONE may say that they recog-
~ nize no obligation to observe
the natural order of things.
This doctrine, put into practice,
has disastrous results. An out
standing law of the universe is
that human progress depends on
mans ability to rise superior to
pain, suffering, toll and labor.
Every great work of art. every
worthwhile human success or
achievement illustrates this law.
EuthanaSia is founded on the
principle that destruction of life
is preferable to pain and suffering.
Inculcate that principle and you
engender a destructive fear Of
pain and suffering.
Students and scholars will
shrink from the pain Of work;
women will dread the anxiety Of
child bearing. Why should life
all labor be-" Fear and dread of
pain are often worse than the &C
tuality. Why not end life at the
first appearance Of fear?
Since death is the end of life,
why not end life at its very be-
ginning by death? Once we admit
that it is morally right for any
individual to end his life in the
presence of pain and suffering we
are face to face with a concession
that we can not limit.
THINK through the problem of
Il euthanaSia, you will find its
advocacy is rooted in an absolute
pagan attitude toward life. That
attitude is supposedly based on
the 10y of living.
AS a matter of fact, pagan phi
losophy casts an unacceptable
shadow of sadness over humanity,
reflected in the pagan classic
authors, for it sentences human
kind to essential futility. Here is
a paradox.
Catholicism with its emphasis
on asceticism, on the soul, on the
supernatural and on eternity, is,
in the minds of many, opposed
to the JOY of living and the eX-
preston Of mans vitality.
In truth, Catholicism stands out
today as the only organized in
ternational influence, which is
the protector and conServer of the
stream of human vital forces, by
its moral doctrine on the right
use of provocative faculty, on
the rights of unborn life, on the
rights of mature life and its right
to the material means necessary
for it's fuller development, and
finally on the limitations of civil
power with regard to mans life
in all its phases.

Irustworthiness

r OYALTY has always been highly
regarded as a virtue, whether
~ 1t has been applied to family
life. social organization. or religion.
One of the most familiar exhortatiOns
to loyalty Is given in the fifth COM
inandment; Honour thy father and
thy mother. : John the Baptist en-
tertained and practiced fine sense
of spiritual loyalty when he said Of
Christ Jesus. He that cometh after
me is mightier than |, whose shoes
am not worthy to bear.
Men and women in various stages
of growth and progress have pledged
their loyalty to their country and
their flag, to righteous causes, and
to manifold systems of medicine and
religion. All this has been splendid
and inspiring. But there is rightly
only one true allegiance-that which
we owe to God, divine Principle; and
eventually everyone will acknowl-
edge this loyalty to Him, and obey
without eQuivocation the First and
most important of the Command
ments.
In the beloved literature OF the
Bible there is clear moral in the
fine story told of Ruth. A grand IL
lustration of loyalty is the book of
Ruth. Who that has been lonely, has
met with reyerses, or has experienced
trouble in one way or another, such
as error always is attempting to make
us accept as real, has not longed and
prayed for steadfast loyalty and af-
lection such as was expressed In
Ruth's words to Naomi, .Whither
thou goest. will go; and where thou
lodgest, will lodge: thy people shall
be my people, and thy God my God"
From casual reading of the book
of Ruth one might suppose that
Ruth's loyalty was that of one near
relative to another. The earnest stu
dent, however, studying the book
profoundly to CLEAN its spiritual
meaning and take to heart its moral,
will discern Ruth's unmistakable 10y

"We do not concur in Mr.. Bowie's

Col. Lindbergh Swears to Voice of
Hauptmann; Betty Cow Tells
of Night Of kidnapping
LADDER PRODUCED IN COURT

s. .
While a nation sits besides radios
and hurriedly scans morning news
paper for events in the trial of Bruno
Richard Hauptmann who is fighting
for his life against the. charge of kid
mapping the first born of Col. and Mrs.
Charles A. Lindbergh on cold night
in March over two years ago, court
stenographers in Pennington, N. j.,
where the trial is taking place, have
written down three positive identifi-
cations of Hauptmann in connection
with the kidnapping.
Lindbergh Testifes
The dead child's father, Lindbergh
himself, has sworn that the Germans
voice is the same as that he heard in
a Bronx cemetery when he carried
$4,000 ransom money which was
paid to a man there by DR.. Condor,
the "go-between" in the case. Lind
bergh sat in the car while the doctor
went to the cemetery to deliver the
money but he distinctly heard the
man who took the money call, "Hey,
doctor" As Lindbergh gave his testi-
mony, he looked straight at the ac-
cused man who is said to have
squirmed slightly but to have also re-
turned his gaze.
Two Damaging Identications
Tuesday a neighbor, Hochmuth,
and a taxi driver, Perrone, identified
Hauptmann as having direct connec-
ton with the case.
Gingerly, 81 year old Amandus
Hochmuth, who lives at the entrance
of the Lindbergh lane, unexpectedly
tapped the stolid carpenter on the
shoulder as he identified him as the
man, in "dirty green car" contain
ing ladder, whom he saw from his
porch the day of the kidnapping
March 1, 1882.
Then Joseph Perrone, the cab driv-
er, slapped the same rigid shoulder
and almost shouted "That's the
manp. who eleven nights later sent
him to DR.. John F. (Jafsie) Condor,
elderly kidnap negotiator, with a
note.
Hauptmann stiffened. He muttered,
almost inaudibly:
"You're a liar"
Later facing the bull pen in the
county Jail, Hauptmann appeared to
