Decision in the Strange Case of
"THE r RED CROSS
SJJRGEON"

Continued From Page Nine)
"PLAINTIFFr Doctor
Hugo Heinz was the victor in this
stirring case and with the sweeping
decree handed down by the United
States Court of Appeals for the
Ninth District, the Red Cross also
won a victory. As a worldwide
institution of humanitarianism, this
organization administers to the
sufferings Of all, regardless of race,
creed or nationality. y.
The court said:-"While Red
Cross surgeons and nurses are
necessarily in the service of the
army in time Of war, they form no
part Of the military forces proper
and will be protected and respected
under all circumstances"
Going further, the court main
tanned that Doctor Heinz did not
join the German Army or become
an agent of the German Govern
ment, when he served them as a
Red Cross surgeon. And finally, the
court held that members of the Red
Cross, regardless of nationality, are
not enemies of the United States.
They may come within the letter of
the statute, but they do not come
within the spirit, or within the
intention OF Congress.
And SO, the German Red Cross
surgeon settled down in California

await the coming day when he

SHOOTS WORKS
ON RECOVERY

Meanwhile, it is worth noticing
that the budget is based on hope.
Relief expenditures are cut sharp
ly. This the President frankly ad-

present business upturn will con-
tinue.
If it does, all well and good. If
it doesn't-if a recession appears,
or even if the curve of business i'm
provement merely levels out and
things stay as they are now-the
money .budgeted for work relief and
for farm aid just won't be enough
and supplementary appropriations
will have to be asked late this
spring. And IF the President does
that. he must either get back into
his tight corner by asking for a
raise in the debt limit, or get con
gress to vote new taxes.
Obviously, the President is
shooting the works on the hope that
business is going to continue to
gain.
