dream of misery and Loneliness
from which she could not awaken.

returned to her brothers. house.

No: she didn't mind, of course.
She didn't mind anything: not

liability at the "bossiness" of ner

disorder of the lovely big living

from the bedroom of the newly

which were swallowed UP in the
major pain which tore her heart.
Allen, her brother, her hero, had

Horror in Pictures

If any argument be needed to
convince reasonable men and women
of the monstrous cruelty and uglineSs
of modern war, it may be found in
photographs from The Netherlands
now being published in America.
These pictures show what happened
to the city of Rotterdam on May IA,
when for two and a half hours,
allegedly after the Dutch COM
mander in chief had surrendered,
Nazi bombers Systematically de-
stroyed public and private buildings
of every variety and, inevitably,
slaughtered the civilian population
caught in the downtown area"
selected to be blasted. Twenty-SiX
thousand structures-storeS, offices,
churches, railroad stations, Libraries,
hotels, apartment houses, residences
of all classes and conditionS-were
reduced to ashes. In the ruins, it is
said, at least twenty-five thousand
citizens persisted.

is OUR CIVILIZATION CHRISTIAN?
By the Right Reu James E. Freeman, D. d. L. D. D. c. l..
Bishop Of Washington.

The judgments we form, the habits
that are common, to us, spring out of
some experience, some persuasive infiu-
ence. often-times out of contact with
some strong personality whose clear
thinking and consistent view of life
nightly affect our own thought and
action. Few of us have an original con-
ception or philosophy of life and its pur-
pose. We may begin with certain ideals
and be governed by certain conventions,
but as life natures and it's circumstances
change We readjust ourselves and rechart
our course. This frequently Is true Of
our professional or occupational life.
Something happens that halts us In the
way we were following. We experience
new set of associations, changed en-
vironment, a signal success or a grave
misfortune and all that we had planned
is shattered and new and realistic
conception of what we are and whittier
we are bound is made clear to us.
Now and again situations arise that
cause us to reappraise our judgments
and to revise our habits and our outlook
We are driven to sober and serious re-
Election and out of it we emerge radically
changed. We face such situation to-
day. For generations we have thought
and lived as the beneficiaries of what
has been called Christian civilization"
We may not have given much deep
thought to its Implications; we accepted
it as defining a satisfying comfortable.
reasonable way of life
Suddenly this conception has been
rudely challenged. The old order has for
the while sustained a great shock 1t is
true that we have taken too readily and
too carelessly view Of life that accom-
modated itself to our needs and selfish
ambitions. Now we are beginning to ask
ourselves the questions: How Christian
has been this civilization Of which We
were so proud? What were the evidences
of it in all the departments of our life?'
Did it make us better than our neigh
bors? Did it preserve to us the decencies
and wholesome things of domestic and
social life? Were we more consistent

Value of Finqerprints

An object lesson on the Importance
of the comprehensive fingerprint
files maintained at the Federal Bu-
reau of Investigation was furnished
by the plane disaster near Lovetts-
vile, a week ago, which cost the lives
of twenty-five persons, the identity
of eleven passengers being estab-
lished through the records of the
bureau. Further, bureau experts
aided in confirming the identity of a
twelfth person through latent print
taken from a medicine bottle at the
home of the victim.
In the majority of cases, those
identified were Government en-
rloyes whose flngerprints were made
when they applied for positions. The
list, however, also included others
from civilian life who had taken ad-
vantage of the facilities offered by the
bureau, and registered their prints
simply with the idea that it might
sometime prove wise precaution.
In the Lovettsville tragedy, bodies
were torn so badly that had it not
been for the factor of certainty pro-
vided by the check on flngerprints,
there easily might have been mix
ups over Identification to cause addi-
tional anguish to distressed families.
For the past seven years, the F. B.
I. has been urging that citizens gen.
orally have their fingerprints regis
tered, and as a result, some two MIL

lion have recorded their prints. That
the plan is finding increasing favor
is evident from figures for the past
fiscal year, which show the addition
of more than a half million such
prints to the bureau files.
Undoubtedly, the number would be
greatly increased, if it were not for
the fact that SO many persons I'M
consciously associate fingerprinting
with criminal detection, in which it
has proved so efficaciouS. There are,
however, no grounds for this I'M
savory connotation. The armed
services additionally have taken
prints of recruits, as it was pointed
out recently by officials of the De-
partment of Justice in urging COM
pliance with the new alien registra-
ton law, and the Civil Service
Commission imposes the same re-
quirement on all potential employees.

Fly Cop

When airplanes displace auto
mobiles, will the traffic cop 60 the
way of other noble experiments, or
will he continue to thrive under
newer and tougher conditions? What
little evidence exists on this moot
point is being tested at Baltimores
airport.
In a control tower sits Logan
Fields first aerial traffic policeman.
All he has is a pair of lights, green
and red. On green, planes take off
or land freely; on red, those on the
ground stay there, and those in the
air circle until green appears. When
pilot crashes red light the officer
is more or less helpless. He can, if
he likes, blow off a little steam by
roaring into the atmosphere Hey,
you, where do you think you're
going?" which is poor satisfaction
when he knows full well that the
offender can hear nothing over a
hundred-horsepower noise and
in addition will be half mile away
a few seconds later.
Such conditions would be intoler-
able to the average automobile traf-
flc policeman. At present the planes
are too crude and the laws too few.
What is needed first is a lot of air
craft that can hover in one spot,
and second, a gang of legislators
who can make it illegal for pilot
to stop except in a few places already
overcroWded. This would give the
aerial traffic cop something on which
to chew, and if he could be equipped
with flock of pink tickets, plane
about the size of an overgrown bug
for chasing, and a megaphone big
enough to carry his opinions through
the noise Of any motor, he could put
real zest into his work and carry
on the traditions of his forerunners
on the ground.

in circumstances dictated by powers
over which they had no control. The
destruction of Rotterdam, then, was
crime. 1t cannot be explained
away by any convenient sophistry.
Neither can there be Naturalization
to the dead.
But the circulation of the photo
graphs struggled out of Holland may
serve one supremely important pur-
pose in the United States. A glance
at them should suffice to convince
the most stolid of skeptics that ample
provision must be made against air
invasion of the western world. Pre-
paredness is costly, yet its price is
small in comparison with that which
necessarily would be paid for neglect
of adequate defense.

and Just In our industrial relations? In
fine was there evidence that the term
Christian did really characterize us
as people?"
These are questions that today press
for an answer, as they are challenged by
forces that refuse to be silenced. 1t
will take something more than arms
and men to guarantee to us the ideals
we have cherished.
On one occasion in the course OF His
ministry, Christ asked His disciples:
Whom say We that I amp" II was an
endeavor to draw from them an express
sion of what they conceived His life and
high mission to be. They had followed
Him and for what purpose? What had
they learned of obedience, what Of 10y
atty to that conception of life which He
had insistently taught them? On an
other occasion He had said: why call
We Inc Lord, Lord, and do not the things
that I say?" The test Of devotion to
Him and His way of life was not in
voluble profession of loyalty, but in the
fulhllment of His teachings in all human
relationships.
Again His question presses for an an
swer: Whom say We that amp What
place do I occupy in the scheme Of life?
What is the proof of your boosted Chris
tian civilization? 1t is a solemn and
deeply searching question, and one that
this generation is called upon to answer.
We are either going to make our world
more Christian, or we are going to accept
a philosophy of life that makes no reck-
oning of Christian ideals and the Chris
tan way of life. Lip service is made
quate, creeds and professions must give
place to a habit and practice in con-
sonance with His teaching.
1t will be costly answer that we give
to His demand, for 1t will mean much
of readjustment, new and better social
and economic order, but 1t will be more
Christian than we of this generation
have ever known. Is our Christian civili-
cation to endure or shall we have new
kind of civilization with Christ left out?
This question is more urgent today than
it has been for generations.
