Cry-Baby Patriots

Close upon the heels Of the
Lieutenant Dahl episode, who
incidentally carries q commits
sion in the United States Army
Air Corps Reserve, comes an
other story Of similar vintage.
This time it is a sister rather
than a wife who transmits the
heart-rendering appeal to Gen
eralisimo Franco and asks the
release of her brother from the
tolls of a rebel hoosegow and
probably the ordeal of a firing
squad rendezvous.
This brother it seems Is an
American who had the misfor-
tune of being captured by the
Franco forces when they staged
one Of their recent drives in the
nothern conquest.
This latest incident reveals
another of these post World
War "cry-baby-patriots," who
apparently was doing all right
so long as the fighting was con-
fined to the long-range stage,
but was quick to shout kama
red" or its equivalent in Span
ish, when the fighting moved
into closer quarters.
Americans Of the ilk of Dahl
and this lad from one Of the
midwestern States, should re.
ceive little sympathy from their
fellow nationals when their Ia
mented cries Of woe reach our
shores. and plead for U. S. in.
tervention in their behalf.
They should receive no SYM
pathy-first, because they are
in an area that is tabooed by
the U. S. neutrality act, passed
by the last Congress. Speaking
