be insulted, or their intelligence or
patriotism questioned, by having laws
enacted which are intended to limit
and thwart their natural right to
information pertaining to national

"There is no common-sense reason
for denying to the students of our
public schools information about COM

reported the conclusion Of arrange.

Usherod and Bratislava. Far from
being designed for tired business men,
this line was agreed upon Immediately
after the conclusion Of mutual assist
ance pacts between the Soviet, France
and Czechoslovakia, and will serve
principally for acquainting Soviet
pilots with the difficult route between
the Soviet frontier and Prague.
Also it provides good excuse for
the construction Of sizable airports
along this route, which probably would
be the only one open to Soviet bomberS
