TNHE first hearty laugh / got
L out of my radio, tuned TO
the NaZi short wave broadcast,
was the announcement that the
speakers opinions are his own
and not necessarily that OF the
broadcasting station.
Since when does any one, in
present Germany. speak his
mind without the approval of the
propaganda minister?
The next came when the
speaker began to bewail the
fact that there is no freedom of
speech in the u. S. A.
To prove his accusations he
cited the resignation of high
ranking army officer (preSum-
ably Lindbergh) who, according
10 the German commentator,
got in wrong with the authori-
ties because he spoke too often
and too wisely.
The NaZi commentator failed
TO add that. unlike in Germany.
the American army officer was
not asked to resign by the au-
thoritieS, nor is the officers life
or freedom in jeopardy.
The resignation of Lindbergh
does not prove that rec speech
is on the decline here. If ii does
prove anything. it is that Lind
bergh could not absorb criticism
of himself despite his readiness
to criticize others.

MIR. LINDBERGH is brave,
WI honorable, honest. patriotic
and senSible-but he is imma-
ture.
If he were a man of wider
experience in life he would know
that there is a Power which
guides the destinies of our race
and that that Power would not
let the NaZis win, no matter
how formidable and irresistible
their might or how tremendous
the odds against which those
overwhelmed by the NaziS have
to contend
History abounds with exam
pies that not the strong and
powerful prevail. but rather that
those who struggle against
iniquity triumph in the end.
1t might take some time be-
fore Mr.. Lindbergh will become
privy to this elementary princi-
pie of Divine justice.
But it is impossible that he
should miss 1t, given time and
experience.
But irrespective of faith in
Gods interceSSion in the present
trial. it is incumbent upon those
whose stake is closely inter-
woven with right and decency as
the arbiter in human affairs to
set their faces against any con-
tingency which might contain a
promise of Nazi. and therefore
barbarians', victory, evenvH 10
do so we must flout the very
perceptions of our senses.
For the world cannot be half
slave and half free.
We, here. have no choice but
to remain free; the only other
alternative is that made famous
by Patrick Henry.
That which is acceptable to
the NaZiS cannot be acceptable
to Americans. and Mr.. Lind

is not a shred of evidence to
accuse him of Nazi sympathies.

OLD plains tribal war dances
" meant something. The tired
gestures put on nowadays by
Sears-Roebuck Indians for the
customers at so much a head
have lost the ancient symbolism.
When 1 was small kid, l
used to hang around Oklahoma,
Cheyenne and Arapaho camps
until I had to be deloused by the
old oil and fine tooth comb
technique. Even then fighting
was over forever. but there
were plenty of bucks and squaws
who had helped make Little Big
Horn Clusters Last Stand"
Their occasional vivid re-enact-
ments were nostalgia pageants
of savage memories.
The old ones started with the
whole tribe squatted sullenly
around a great fire. Let's say
the play was that an Arapaho
embassy had come to urge on
the Cheyennes joint war
against the HI-kNEES to the
east and the JA-PON-kNEES
to the west. 1t arouses no popu-
lar enthusiasm. But the war
drums begin softly murmuring.
There is a plaintive patriotic
keening of voices around the
tom toms. Occasionally tn e
plant is punctuated by a COM
forting chant that sounds like
"SHOTE A WAWAH' - no
Shooting"
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1941-05-10

THAT grows louder with the
l. drums and soon the tribe
begins to sway all in rythm.
Then some very old chief whose
name is not Wrong Horse makes
a speech which sounds eloquent
in Cheyenne. 1t is said that he
is the war chief like Crazy
Horse in Montana. 1886
whose only gospel was battle.
The whole show is managed be-
hind the scenes by the greatest
ACKNOWLEDGMENT of all from a
big white teepee-hke Sitting
Bull before the Little Big Horn.
1t created CONSERVATION but
little enthusiasm. He is very
old-very old. But then the
tom-tons break loose in thun-
der. The red fires flare high.
The plaintive chant "SHOTE-A-
WAWAH" has already changed
to a gutteral savage slogan that
sounds at first like ''KON-VOY-
AIT and later TO a veritable
war-cry.
There is a moments pause
and then. with a terrible yell.
a very young chief bounds TO
the center. His face and body
are horribly streaked with yell
low war-paint. He wants TO
blast TO-KEE-OO. the great
war-village of the JA-PON-
KNEES. old and young alike.
into a "shambles. His name
isn't Senator Pepper. II is Chief
Bo-Hee. meaning Big Hat
Not Cattle"
THAT alone can't do the trick
L Too many braves have Bo-
Hee's number. But the whole
effect long meditated and de-
vised by the great medicine
man in the big white teepee
does il. The war-drums rise TO
an unbearable din.
Reluctantly. at first, some Of
the more deliberate men are
drawn in as by the primitive fas-
cination of voo-doo orgiastic
ritual. Even before Bo-Hee had
gone juramentado a big broad
boadicean squaw has been
screaming and tearing her hair
before the ladies roofing section.
Her name is not Dorothy
Thompson, but she is as effec-
tive. For now the whole tribe.
including the squaws, go utterly
hog-wild - writhing, screaming,
tumbling on the ground like holy
rollers. even decorating them
selves in an orgy of crazed emo
ton.
IT is more than enough TO
Il scare a small boy but an In
dian policeman says:
"Just heap whoOpfe. Indians
got sense but no guns. Last time
went off reservation on Messiah
craze Indians win big battle but
lose shirt"
Maybe Indians got sense"
but have the whites who ousted
them? The climax of the pres
ent Sioux Messiah dance tmuch
worse than the Cheyenne ritual
that has damned up the ether
waves and filled the press with
tom-toms for immediate war in
the last few days-especially
when you look back over the
months at its subtle. creeping
beginnings-it is pretty hard to
distinguish from my Cheyenne
parable.
