Urges Preservation
OF Puritan Heritage.
To the Editor Of The Star,

To the Editor OF The Star:
Instead of despising the Puritan intlu-
ences we ought to be doing our best to
venerate them. They were the noblest
influences in the development Of our
country. The strongest, bravest, most
cultured, most honorable elements Of our
Americanism had their origin in Puri-
tanism. Let US not forget there was
sturdiness about those folks that de-
serves admiration.
What Is Puritanism? It is the passion
for right. care not whether it exists
Is the passion for social Justice or the
longing for social purity. It is the finest
and most spiritual thing Of which We are
capable. Jesus was giving expression to
the basic meaning Of Prritanism and
giving it approval when he said: Blessed
are they that hunger and thirst after
righteousness" @. w.

Cites Errors in
Canal Zone Story.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Permit me to point out two errors in
the story, United States to Send Air
Missions to Colombia" carried on page
one of The Star Sunday, November ~.
The statements, The Panama Canal
Zone, now owned by the United
States ." and ''The United States
-" bought the zone from 1t" Panama)
are incorrect. The Panama Canal Zone
was not bought from Panama, it was
leased. Panama, therefore, not the
United States. owns the Canal Zone.
The United States exercises Jurisdiction
over the territory, but Panama remains
the sovereign.
The statement, Congress paid Co.
lombia $15,00O0 900 as compensation" for
the loss of Panama, is also incorrect.
The sum paid Colombia was $25, ZOO, 900.
ROGEL1O E. ALFARO,
Counselor's of1ce, Pan-American Union.
November 2s.
Editors Note: The statement referred
to by MIR. Alfaro is incorrect in that
Panama did not sell the Canal Zone, but
leased 1t in perpetuity to the United
States. The State Department Sys
there is considerable vagueness about the
question of sovereignty as Panama, in
the treaty of 1903, ceded to the United
States all rights and Jurisdiction in the
zone.

Two Kinds of Claims

:. It is very important to distin- guish between a lode and pla- cer deposit. If a deposit is lode, it should be staked as a lode claim; If it is placer, it should be staked as a placer claim... If both a lode and a placer deposit are found in the same area, it should be located as both a placer and a lode claim.

TILT ON RELIGION
ENLNENS FORUM
Representative O'ConneII
and Thomas Dorgan
Clash Over Spain.
BY the Associated Press.

.
BOSTON. April 25.-An unsched-
uled clash on religion between Repre-
sentative Jerry ]. O'Connell, Democrat,
OF Montana and former State Repre-
sentative Thomas Dorgan, Democrat,
author Of the Massachusetts, Teachers
Oath Law" last night took the spot
light from a speech by Mr.. O'Connell
on Il Hate War"
The verbal exchange, before a Ford
Hall Forum audience, followed a state
ment by Mr.. O'Connell in which he
disputed what he said were doubts ex-
pressed by William Cardinal O'Connell
OF Boston, that Generalissimo Frances
airmen had deliberately bombed
civilians in Barcelona.
Urges Quarantine.
The Representative, in his address,
had urged junking of the restrictions
imposed by the present Neutrality Act
In favor of a quarantine against
aggressor nations. Such a move, he
said. would permit the United States
70 aid the Spanish government and
other forces opposed to Fascism.
Mr.. Dorgan. whose oath law REQUIRES
teachers to pledge allegiance to State
and Federal Constitutions, arose from
tne audience and asked why the
democratic" government in Spain
permitted Communists" to slaughter
priests and nuns and destroy Catholic
churches"
Mr.. O'Connell said such acts had
occurred in the early days of the war.
but said they had since been stopped.
i don't think much of your cathol-
icism, Representative OConueu."
shouted Mr.. Dorgan.
Defines Duty.
The Montanan answered that his
catholicism was based on an encycIical
by Pope Leo XIII. that it was a duty
OF catholics to defend the properly
constituted government from "insur-
rectlon from within and invasion
from without"
Mr.. O'Connell added that when
Cardinal O'Connell or any other
priest gives an opinion on secular
topics. Il as Catholic and a citizen
have every right to disagree and to
condemn that which he says"

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
HEALING DISCUSSED
DR.. Walton Hubbard, c. S. B., Says
All Disease Is Mental in
Talk Here.

A lecture on "Christian Science
Its Healing Mission" was delivered
yesterday afternoon in Constitution
Hall by DR.. Walton Hubbard, c. S. B.,
Of Los Angeles.
Dr. Hubbard, member of the Board
OF Lectureship Of the mother church
the First Church of Christ, Scientist,
in Boston, was introduced by William
G. Biederman, Christian Science Com
mittee on Publication. The lecture
was sponsored by the four Churches
OF Christ, Scientist, of this city.
The lecturer said in part:
In practicing medicine, I soon
found that there is a mental element
In every case, and as it was obvious
that this mental element could not
be reached by any material means, I
began to try to estimate just how
large factor the mental element was
In every case that came to me- = -
Now this did not mean that I be-
came a Christian Scientist when
arrived at this point. 1t only meant
that I had come to recognize that
all disease is mental. ""'
And yet, having arrived at this
point was filled with fear, for I saw
that the spirituality Of Christian
Science would not mix with the ma
teriality of my profession, and I did
not want to give up the practice of
medicine. But the leaven of truth
was working in my consciousness, and
I was drawn to it with greater and
greater conviction until at last 1 gave
up the practice of medicine and began
to practice Christian Science"
