1t was announced recently on the
radio that a man sued an insurance
company which had refused to pay
for burned household effects, said
effects being numerous boxes of
cigars smoked by the plaintiff. The
court, going on the strict interpreta-
ton that the goods had indeed been
destroyed by fire, found for the
plaintiff and ordered the insurance
company to pay. In consequence of
this extraordinary reasoning, the
insurance company is now suing its
former policyholder on a charge of
arson-s charge seemingly not diff
ficult to prove.
At the same time the Supreme
Court itself is being accused by
some, wise or otherwise, of forget
ting the law Of the land and handing
down decisions on the basis Of per-
sonal feeling. This confuses the
issue. The moral is, apparently, that
courts should use Judgment and not
be hampered by having to stick to
picayune hidebound rules; also that
they should adhere impartially to
the rules and not be swayed by
Judgment. Both ideas sound we'll:
you can take your choice, while the
loser pays his money.

again and again are hard put to it to
explain to the men in the armed serv-
ices how war and christianity can be
reconciled. It is the fine determination
of Chaplain Feinboth to maintain his
faith and to express the spirit Of broth
erly love even for the enemy which
makes his expression notable one.
1t will not be surprising to those who
have followed theological or religious
doctrine, but 1t will be surprising to
many who often wonder how there
can be spirit Of love toward an enemy.
They forget that Jesus taught the need
for extending love to ones enemy. Lit
orally expressed, Of course, it is para
dox, but the meaning Of the word 'love"
Is broader than is ordinarily assumed.
X 4 =
When an American chaplain reminds
the soldiers of an enemy country that
Easter services are for them as well
as for Americans, he is only saying that
IN the abstract sense the American
people have no hate for another
people as such and that in his opinion
christianity offers q connecting link be-
tween peoples of like belief.
To offer to "love' an enemy who is
being attacked and who is attacking
doesn't make sense in a concrete form,
but the Easter service was doubtless
intended to be symbolic Of an American
conception Of what this war Is about
to f1nd way to secure liberty and
freedom for all peoples Of the world,
including our enemies, especially If the
latter will turn away from the irreligion
and vice and brutality Of a Hitler and
embrace once more the fundamental
doctrines Of human brotherhood.

mental commander and his cfaplairs

public cannot be told without telling
the enemy. Therefore the public must
remain in Ignorance and the effect upon
quite natural public anxiety is some-
times to set up series Of pressures,
which can have disturbing effect upon
the conduct of the war as a whole.
Thus for long time there was a loud
outcry, reinforced in some quarters for
purely partisan purposes, to the ef-
feet that Gen. Macarthur was being
starved" of the necessary planes and
munitions to carry on his mission in
the Southwest Pacific. 1t was not then
possible to tell the public that the major
effort against the Japanese was to be
made, not in the southwest but in the
central Pacific, and not by Gen. Mac
Arthur but by Admiral Nimitz.
The Japanese, and therefore the pub
lie, had to be left to find that out by
the actual beginning of the operation.
In the meanwhile the Government had
to bear, as best it could, the continual
hammering in some sections of the press
and even on the floor of Congress, of
uninformed and half-baked criticism
which at times attained the level of
hysteria.
The campaign in the Mediterranean
is another case in point The mag
nificent military combinations by which
Gen. Eisenhower brought to utter de-
struction the Axis armies in North
Africa, and reduced the island Of Sicily
were almost lost sight of in the storm
OF criticism over the political arrange
ments and adjustments which accom-
panied these victories.

ward as possible presidential nominee

latest official comment was "I am not
now and do not intend to be candidate
for the presidency" Yet there is a ma
tional "Draft-Byrd-for-Pres Com
mittee" at work in the Southern States
and in some others.
On the Republican side Of the fence,
in addition to Gov. Dewey there are sew
eral "unnanounced candidates" for the
nomination, among them Gen. Douglas
Macarthur, 1t. Comdr. Harold E. Stas-
sen, Gov. Earl Warren Of California and
Eric Johnston, president Of the United
States Chamber Of Commerce. All of
them have denied their candidacy.
Comdr. Stassen, however, has informed
the Secretary of the Navy that, if nomi-
mated, he will run.
In 1910 three Democratic candidates
entered the race for the presidential
nomination against Mr.. Roosevelt-Vice
President Garner, James A. Farley and
Senator Wheeler Of Montana. The
names Of Mr.. Garner and Mr.. Farley
were both presented to the Democratic
National Convention. Mr. Garner re-
ceived 81 votes and Mr.. Farley "a on
the first and only ballot taken. The

ingly consummated.

to broadcast Easter services to the Ger.
man troops. The relatively few who
heard 1t may not have understood, but
the dispatches telling of 1t and the
broadcasts that were no doubt sent out
later over our short-wave stations to
the interior of Europe also telling about
1t will be heard by many, many millions.
\ \
1t is these millions still living under
the Nazi yoke who sooner or later must
come to understand that the United
Nations do not stand before them as
would-be oppressors or vindictive con-
querorS of their lives but as trustees for
them and their children. That trus-
teesh1p will mean severe punishment
for the guilty, but it cannot mean en-
slavement for the innocent.
Too many persons are ready to push
aside as superf1uous or contradictory
such things as Easter services at the
front. These matters, they will say, are
not proper In war where the main ex-
perience is to kill or be killed. But
the strength of an honest cause Is more
powerful than any physical weapons the
world has ever made or used. If some-
how the speeches Of the President and
Prime Minister Churchill and Marshal
Stain could begin to exude the same
deep faith in the qualities Of human
brotherhood as were expressed In that
Easter service at Casino, the men who
fight on our side and the men on the
other side would derive renewed faith
that the sacrifices they now are making
will somehow some day bring q better
world, world of higher moral values
and a world Of peace built on the only
foundations that can endure -- the
philosophy of human love.

To the Editor of The Star:
If President Roosevelt refuses to be
nominated or drafted into the next
presidential election Ga possibility that
is written with a smattering Of wishful
thinking), 1t will b q most interesting
test Of the polls. It will be so because
Mr.. Willkie will make 1t so.
No one really knows what Mr.. Will
kie's plans are. But whatever they may
be, we can rest assured that they are
for the best interests Of this country
If he Is not nominated by the Re-
publican party as their candidate, he
could bolt the party, join forces with
his old comrades and run for President
or Vice President on the Democratic
platform. He could do this with fair
chance for success.
AS party, the Democrats are practi-
cally bankrupt for a new presidential
candidate. At present there is no one
in their camp Excepting possibly Presi-
dent Roosevelt) who could defeat Gov
Dewey of New York. Vice President
Wallace would be the next best bet
but 1t is doubtful if he could win. In
the best interests Of the Nation, he is

usual case OF the nomination seeking
the man. It is taken for granted that
President Roosevelt and Gov. Thomas
E. Dewey Of New York will both accept
the nomination of their respective
parties, though neither one has said he
will run. 1t is further generally agreed
that both can have the nomination
unless either or both should say II will
not run"
Both President Roosevelt and Gov.
Dewey are In the public mind regarded
as unannounced candidates. The Presi-
dent is following the same course he did

when he said he was not candidate
for the nomination in 1910, and would
not be. The pressure on both to make
a definite statement will increase as the
national party conventions draw nearer.

these gentlemen had been openly cam-
paigning for delegates during the pre-
convention period.
Whether Gov. Dewey's name formally
will be placed in nomination when the
COP convention gets down to work next
June remains to be seen. It has been
argued that to permit formal nomina-
tion would be last-minute announce
ment OF candidacy. However, some Of
his supporters in the convention may
take the bit in their teeth and present
his name. The alternative would be to
walt Tor the roll call and vote him In.
1t is clear that If either the President
or Gov. Dewey should announce finally
he would not run If nominated, the pic
ture would be vastly different, with a
wild scramble for the Democratic or
Republican nomination Today it looks
as though the real fight in both con-
ventions will be over vice presidential
nomination. Although that issue might
easily be settled by the President and
Gov. Dewey.
The strength of Senator Byrd In the
coming Democratic convention may be
considerable, provided the antifourth-
term sentiment among Democrats crys-
tallizes. Senator Byrd is remembered
as an able administrator when Cover

OF strength in the economy bloc in

Gratis.

ly does not believe that the renomina.
tlcn OF President Roosevelt can be
stopped. As for himself he says: IT
must always keep in mind the fact
that my position in the Senate gives
me opportunity to lend my efforts and
voice to the tasks at hand"

vention campaign.

policy, as Mr.. Hull's admirable state
ment makes clear, and it is policy to
which most Americans, of whatever po-
litical affiliation, can give wholehearted
allegiance
We ought to remember that in war,
military progress is of the first order
OF Importance. Political events follow
military changes and are shaped by
them The state of public opinion is
likewise chiefly affected by military and
not by political occurrences.
All too frequently, however, public
opinion tends to run off on tangent
because it is impossible to foresee mill
tary changes while they are in the
making. The one field in which mill

to coineide with those from the
north. However, If the Axis gar
rison is strong and we'll equipped,
much hard fighting may be ex-
pected. When the Axis assailed the
Crimea during their great advance
in the autumn of 1941, the elaborate
defenses of the Perekop Isthmus
proved a hard nut to crack, and
they have presumably been repaired
during the long Axis occupation.
Once the Russians are beyond the
isthmus. they should find easier
going, for the interior of the Crimea
is mostly open, treeless downs that
are good country for mechanical
warfare. In the extreme south is a
high coastal range protecting the
littoral beyond from the north
winds. That is the Russian Riviera,
with almost tropical vegetation. The
Axis has used its former palaces and
sanatoria for their convalescent sick
and wounded. It is in these noun
tains that the Axis defenders may
make their last stand.
The ultimate fate of the Axis gar
rison can hardly be in doubt. But
they have already gained much for
the German high command by their
added months Of control. The speed
OF the Russian reconquest may de-
pend largely upon whether the Red
Black Sea Fleet is in condition to
give effective aid. 1t has played vir-
tually no part in recent operations,
and its efficiency may be doubted
after two years of inactivity under
unfavorable conditions. But. in any
case, Russia's regaining of the
Crimea can be only a matter of
time.

or another. But the reports never ma
tertalized fully. At one time we were
told in an official report that about
10000 Germans had been trapped on
the Dnepr Bend, only to learn later
that barely per cent Of that number
were in Russian prison camps.
The pattern Of the German defeat
appears to professional military OBJ
servers here to have been based on q
hard-fought rearguard action to enable
the bulk Of the German forces to with
draw and save large part Of their
war material. Whether that pattern
was followed around Odessa or will be
followed in the Crimea is difficult to
say.
Reports from Turkey received here In
January and February indicated the
Germans were taking their own men
out Of the Black Sea area by boat to
the Romanian and Bulgarian ports Of
ConstanZa, Varna and Burgas. We have
reliable information that about $4,000
German soldiers who had been sent to
the Crhnea to recuperate were cvacu-
ated to Constanza last winter. But even
II the Germans have withdrawn large
number from the obviously untenable
southern front, 1t seems highly innprob-
able that they have succeeded in saving
much war material or any OF the Ru-
manian forces which were estimated at
$4,000 men.

And this brings us back 10 our present
anxieties about our policy which re-
CARDS Europe as whole. It Is worth
repeating what Walter Lippmann has
already so clearly pointed out-that
When British and American armies have
neen landed In great force upon the
European continent, there will be no
longer any question of the extent OF
our influence, Of Our standing with the
various European peoples, of our re-
sponsibility for the future of Europe.
We shall look back with some aston
ishment at the words that have been
written and spoken in this interval of
waiting. And wonder how we could
have ever supposed-as is being said so
frequently now-that the Russians will
be the supreme arbiters of Europes
destiny and that our voice will scarcely
be heard in the final settlement.

bring the whole picture into balance,

estimated, visited the Tidal Basin
area on Sunday to view the cherry
blossoms formerly called Japanese.
The global strife was not absent
from the consciousness of the
pilgrims; many of them were in

the weather was congenial; men,

And Now the Crimec

The longawaited Russian assault
on the Crimea has apparently begun
Berlin reports heavy Red attacks on
the Isthmus of Perekop, the narrow
neck connecting the Crimea with
the mainland, together with simul-
taneous operations across the sand
spits and lagoons farther to the
eastward. Following customary pro-
cedure, Moscow has not yet an
nounced this offensive, waiting until
it gets well under way. But the Ger
man high command often speaks
first on such occasions, and its re-
port is so explicit that there can be
little doubt it conforms to the basic
facts.
Ever since the great Red often
Sive which rolled across Southern
Russia last year severed the Ger

it's mixed German and Romanian

munications by sea. This was re-

port Of Odessa remained in Axis
hands. But the capture of that
metropolis intensifies the Crimea's
isolation. Indeed, this is the logical
moment for the Soviet high COM
mand to eliminate the Crimean

The Crimea is rich prize for any

likewise cuts off the smaller Sea of

the Caucasus. The Germans were
driven from their Caucasian bridge

that Russian attacks will be
