ments, Sen. Sheridan Downey. D,
Calf, announced he will seek a
senate vote on the Townsend Old
Age Pension plan which was re-
jected overwhelmingly in the

EVENTS moved swiftly during
II the last days OF the World
War. With the crash of their OPP
erations on the eastern front, the
Germans evacuated TO strengthen
defenses on the west. Thus were
abandoned their headquarters IN
MANY strategic cities, some OF
which were in the territory now
known as Latvis.
Latvia was created a sovereign
state Immediately after the war.
A government must have postage,
but when Latvia turned to find
paper stock on which TO print its
first stamps there was none. war
had drained the country OF sup
plies on every hand. There was
one surplus stock, however. Ger
man war maps which had been
seized in the final campaigns.
Promptly. the government gath.
cred these maps and prepared
them for its first postage. At the
same time postage was printed
on unfinished Russian rlble notes,
on cheap ruled tablets, on ordi-
nary school scratch paper. The
stamps weren't the ideal OF a col
lector's heart but they flled the
bill, which after all was the pri-
mary consideration.
So Latvia gave the world set
of stamps which Germany GER

A MODERN LUTHER

There is a school of historical thought which holds
that great movements must center about great men
1t is somewhat outmoded school in these days of the
science of history" and of materialist thinking None
theless a man is emerging in Germany as kind of
leader against the kind of state Adolf Hitler repre-
sents His emergence has led to the most open OPP
position to Hitler in the six years of the dictatorship
The man is Pastor Nemoeller. He is in Sachsen-
hansen Concentration Camp. Last week he began his
third year in solitary confinement in a small cell
with the Bible New Testament only his sole per-
mitted reading matter He fights Hitler only by
choosing to remain in prison rather than leave and
accept Htlers increasing control over the church.
According to The Hour, a publication of the

many to fight not only for Niemoeler, but for Me
moeler's concepts of freedom of worship. We know
that the Confessional pastors nave been amazingly
courageous of late in denouncing Hiters church con-
troll from the pulpit.
To fight for freedom of worship is to fight for
the dignity of human personality. If that fight is
won the fight for the other freedoms destroyed
by Hitler also will be won They hang together free
worship free speech free assembly, free government
Sitting in his cell Pastor Niemoeller is waging his
torc struggle the German people and the thoughts
of all Americans-who have nothing but good will for
the German people-are with him.
Hitler is powerless against this man. He can
kill Pastor Niemoeller but that would avail him
nothing For Niemoeler is established in the
German mind the symbol of the struggle for free
DOM that symbol he is beyond the dictators reach
The whole story of Martin Niemoeller would take
long to tell. Niemoeller a submarine commander
during the World War then tried to farm did manual
labor while studying for the ministry. He was an
early member of the Naz party, breaking with Hitler
when the Fuehrer attempted, through Bishop Mueller
drum up the Lutheran Church to support the Nazi
revolution When Mueller Reich Bishop. ordered
the churches into line Niemoeller defied the order
For time so great the antagonism stirred up by
Nazi pagansm among the rank and file of Lutherans
Niemoeller seemed to have won a victory Mueller
and his successors Two years ago Hitler felt strong
enough to arrest him and to retain him in "protec-
tive custody" after trial court had nomnally set
him free.
So far as is known in this country, Pastor Me
moeller has connection with the underground
movements in Germany whose object is to overthrow
the Nazi government He is certainly Communist

ENTREE: FOUR ICE CREAM CONES

If we didn't have pretty good suspicion that very
young children don't read editorials wouldn't dare
print this.
But nothing has pleased us much for a long
time the report presented to the recent meeting OF
the Canadian Medical Association by DR.. Clara M
Davis. DR.. Davis 1--WE don't know if she has children
of her noD told of letting a group of Is
children choose their diet from the time they
were weaned. Her system was to offer large trays
of food to children and let them pick whatever they
wanted and as much they wanted. We can't decide
whether our favorite is the boy who ate ten eggs at
one meal or the one who Tapped up cod-liver oil in
two-ounce swigs.
At the end of the sx-year experiment all were
above average weight and height, although not too
fat none had had serious illnesses Stomach aches
not mentinoed in the account saw and five chill
dren who originally had ricketts, were cured.
DR.. Davis thinks all this suggests the existence of
some innate automatic mechanism in the human
system for selecting proper food
We think it shows that chid's stomach is pretty
tough and pretty sensible, and that Grandma who
sneaks bit of candy to Johnny when he wants it
may know as much of the higher priced child

Nicaragua Again
New York Times)

President Somoza's promise to his people on
his return to Managua from the United States that
the long discussed Nicaraguan Canal will become
reality is, to say the least premature. For Pres-
dent Somoza could have received no assurances in
this country that the canal will be built; in fact

$277000000 for a third set of locks at Panama ind-
Gates that the Nicaraguan Canal project has been
deferred indefinitely
Another survey of the Nicaraguan Canal route
to modernize and supplement data obtained nine to
ten years ago. is, however, to be made and it may
well be wise precaution in future years to repeat
these surveys at periodic intervals But the Nicara-
guam project is at very best anchor to windward
against that unforeseeable day when the Pan
Canal shall have outlived its usefulness or shall
have been jeopardzed by developments no man can
now predict. For the present and the foreseeable
future there is sound economic strategic reason
for the construction of a billion-doll canal to
parallel the Panama route. Far wiser is the project
which Congressional committees are now studying
to provide third set of locks for Panama-locks
capable of holding the largest vessels built or
dreamed of, locks limited in time of tension war
to the exclusive of the United States Navy
