Logical Decision
cleveland Plain Dealer

In decision from which the two consistent con-
servatives of the United States Supreme Court Jus
tees McReynolds and Butler, sharply dissent, the
highest tribunal DEGREES that former membership in
the Communist party does not subject an alien to
deportation.
The case concerned the status of Joseph G..
Strecker of Arkansas whom the Labor Department
had sought to deport under the provisions of con-
gressional act of 1920 which forbade the of
Communists Strecker according to his testimony,
had become a member of the Communist party after
his arrival in this country but had since Withdrawn
from its ranks He is free to remain in America.
The chief importance of the Strecker case, how
ever, is its bearing upon Harry Bridges Australian
born labor leader. whose activities in the c. l. O. on
the west coast have made him target for bitter
attack The Labor Department has been criticized
for failing to deport Bridges. This of the
grounds Of the recent demand for the Impeachment
OF Secretary Perkins, a demand rejected of no
merit by a congressional committee
Presumably the decision means that Bridges will
not be deported, at least not grounds of Com
munism.
The decision of Judge Roberts in which five of
his colleagues concur is in a defense of
question of when alien becomes undesirable 1t
simply holds that if Congress had intended to bar
aliens who became Communists after their arrival
in America it would have so specified and that, in
fact it did not SO specify.
Justice Roberts reasoning inlpresses us logical
though it may not convince those led into anti-Red
hysteria by the emotional meanderings of the Dies
committee.
One can be in hearty dsapproval of Communism
and all its works and still welcome ruling by the
highest United States court which in effect rebukes
those whose faith in Americanism is SO shaky that
they would block the expression of the opinion they
hate as well as that which they approve.

Latest Political Hypothesis
New York Times

To the layman one of the most puzzling concepts
of modern astronomy is the hypothesis of the expand
ing universe. How can universe which is already
infinite continue expand and what does it expand
into? No wonder some astronomers today are begin
ming to doubt previous interpretations of the evidence
which this theory is based
Equally battling philosophical concept is
this German idea of life space" suddenly
launched as means of justifying the absorption of
the Czechs by the conquerng Nazis The theory is
also called living economy; but that does not
explain 1t any better. To American it suggests
busting the front paror. There something COM
prehensibe about the German doctrine OF the sodar
ty of the Germanic race though that theory
colapses at the first examination of Teutonc origins
But it clearly would not do as one of those dogmas
so dear to the German mind itself to justify the
annexation of the whole Danuban Valley and large
chunks of Slav territory
1t is unfortunate that the Germans no longer
have man of the eminence of Professor Enstein to
explain this life space" Like the expanding uni
verse it appears to be one-way hypothesis, with
provision for occasional contraction 1t is strictly
totaitaran article manufactured by dictator for
home consumption and forbidden to the of others
II one nation, or race must have life space why is
it not an equal necessity for any other nation?
How about life space" for the Poles for instance?
If the Poles want the protection of their own
territory the Germans call it 'encirclement." Life
space the Germans understand it, might keep right
expanding like the theoretical universe, until it
encrcles the entire globe That of course, would be
too bad for the life space" of everybody else Life
space" like every other slogan devised by the Nazi
department of philosophy and propaganda, is simply
another name for appetite. 1t is argument that
would have appealed to the Walrus and the Carpenter
they shucked and swallowed the oysters of Wonder
land.

EXTENDING THE LIMIT

The threat of war 10000 miles away may be the
instrymentality for saving the Alaska salmon fishing
industry
Senator Key Pttman of Nevada Chairman of the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee has proposed to
the State Department that the Nations historic
three-mile limit be discarded in favor of a 12-mile
zone of Territorial waters around the coasts of the
United States which of course includes Alaska
a Primary object of Senator Pittman is to keep war
away from the Nations shores by making foreign
ships stay least II miles away But in Alaska the
extension would have another, and equally beneficial
effect 1t would close the salmon banks of Bristol Bay
to foreign encroachment
This is just what the canned salmon industry has
been agitating for for several years l2-me limit
would allow the United States policy of conservation
of the fisheries resources to have full effect and not
nese
The three-mile limit is an anachronism, dating
from the days when that distance was regarded the
of the territorial zone plan was to avoid trouble by
keeping foreign cannonballs off domestic lawns that
admirable idea was not followed through as the
length of cannon range increased.
The United States unfortunately has insisted
doggedly the three-mile limit in its international
chickering's in the past when other Nations sought to
scrap the outdated idea. If the State Department
which is said to have the Pittman proposal under
consideration can break with tradition and bring
its limits up to present day usefulness it will be giving
the Alaska salmon fishery new lease on life and
insuring its future
In the interests of both national peace and peace
on the fishing banks the limit should be extended

1llOItobh1 MA 4, 1859
Kindly stars guide today, accord
ing to astrology. Benefic aspects
rule strongly after the morning
when there may be more or less in
decision regarding important plans
Commerce should be good as this
volume of exports is likely to in
crease greatly. Trade agreements
with foreign countries are to con-
tribute to American prosperity The
knowledge of secret overtures which
threaten the markets of the Unit
ed States will not interfere with ex-
banding trade, the seers prognosti-
cate.
Much travel in Europe or at least
transporta ton of a large number
of men to foreign countries is prog
nosticated. Sudden events of great
importance are foretold. The ele-
ment of surprise will be present in
international affairs.
The planetary government favors
the navy and seems to presage in
creased activity for this arm of our
national defense.
All the signs seem to encourage
representations .of intensive ac-
tivity in manufacturing and in ex-
panding preparations for national
defense.
The year which will see extension
of our national possibilities as
well as national perils will be one in
which history is written in large
letters
Greece and Rumania continue un-
der threatening portents. Political
crises are foreshadowed. The Argen-
tine republic as well as other Latin
American governments may be in
fluenced by European power
The afternoon and evening of this
day should be fortunate for persons
who represent the best interests of
the nation. Women should find the
planetary influences helpful in for
ward movements and stimulating to
reform efforts.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of real pros
perity and steady advancement
Speculation may be lucky, but it
should be avoided
Children born on this day prob
ably will be intelligent and de-
termined, fearless and kindly Sub
jects of this sign of Taurus are pa
tent in efforts to achieve their goal
