Charged to Group

-Four alleged ticket scalpers, one a
15-year-old boy, ran afoul of the
law yesterday at Griffith Stadium

were taken into custody for solicit

ers yesterday, each getting what he
could for his seats, but top grand

selling for as high as IS.
A crowd of impatient bleacherites
most of them without tickets,
stormed turnstile on the Fifth

to the east bleachers. and between
200 and 300 rushed into the park
before the breach was closed.
Tickets were sold legally at a
store opposite the ball park. The
dealer sold out.
Servicemen seeking tickets stood
in punches on the concourse lead

weather months, you should have
used no more than IL per cent of
your total allotment so far, the
District ONCE of Price Administra-

Computed by the OPA with the
cooperation of the Weather Bureau

cent figure is the first of a series
Of weekly estimates to be anpounced
by the District rationing authorities.
Each Monday the OPA ONCE will
announce an official OPA index fig
ure-representing the maximum per
cent of your fuel oil ration you
should have burned up to that date.
The weekly index figure makes no
allowance for possible future spells
of unusually cold weather, how
ever, the OPA warned. If you want
to be on the safe side, and prepared
for unexpected cold. keep your per-
centage of consumption considerably
below the OPA figure.

panel composed of representatives
Of industry, labor and the public,
will begin hearings at 10 am. to-

rates. Besides the question OF pay,
overtime and arbitration methods

The Arnold line is offering a s.

decided to take the matter to the
WLB panel.

Democracies Failing
To oAchieveT Their Goal
Religious Group Told
Dr.. Moritoin Sees Union
Between Enemies of
Government by People

The tragedy of the modern de-
mocracies is that they have not sue
ceeded in achieving democracy, DR..
Jacques Maritain, noted -Thom-
ist philosopher, told the Committee
on Religious Life in the Nations
Capital in symposium today at the
Washington Hotel.
DR.. Maritain was the first speaker
on program which included Prof
Reinhold Niebuhr, professor of
Christian ethics at the Union Theo-
logical Seminary. and Rabbi Samuel
H. Goldenson, former president of
the Central Conference of American
Rabbis. Senator Ball. Republican
OF Minnesota, was to- address. !. a
ing 1t noon. :
Foes Always Active.
Declaring there are many reason.
for the failure of modern
democracies to achieve democracy
DR.. Maritain SAID that the first j.
that "the enemies of the democratic
ideal never lay down their arms
and their resentment; that their
hatred of the people and of freedom
have only grown in proportion as the
weaknesses and errors of the modern
democracies gave them more pre-
texts"
There was coalition" he con-
tinued, between the interests of
the ruling classes, corrupted by
money. desperately clinging to their
privileges and crazed by a blind
fear of Communism (the spread of
which could have been prevented
only by clear-sighted policy of
social REFORM, the ambition of
sordid adventures and the slave
philosophy taught in all the coun-
tries of Europe py Utopians, eager
to see their ideals prevail by any
means whatsoever"
Reconciliation Needed.
Achievement OF democracy, "in-
evitably demanded to be accom-
plished in the social as we'll as in
the political order" is a demand
not complied with. the speaker add
ed But the principal reason" he
said, "is of spiritual nature"
If the democracies win the peace
after having won the war, it will be
on condition that the Christian in
spiration and the democratic in
Sipration recognize each other and
become reconciled, DR.. Maritain as
serted.
Declaring that he did not think
such a reconciliation would be easy
he explained that a great many bit.
ter resentments and prejudices
must be done away with.
This revision Of values has beer
well on the way for many years in 6
certain number of leading minds
yet a great deal Of work remains tc
be done"
