The Jap Atrocities Hit Home Front

Jews. japanese violation of CIV
lllzed standards of treating war
prisoners was just another in
stance of mans inhumanity to man.
Yet the Notwithstanding
what-can-you-do" attitude disap-
peared with the change in locale
and victim. The Jews of Europe
are strangers-even to some of
the Jews of America. The Jap
anese brutality threatened to
reach into every American home
and called for far less magma
ton.
my son could be taken pris-
oner," thought every parent.
Now the cynicism bred after
the last war by the discovery that
atrocity stories had been false is
being dispelled.
The American people is being
shocked out of its inability to ex-
perience shock.
It seems reasonable to hope
that all victims of barbarism
stand to gain from the reawaken-
ing of the American conscience.
Senator Alben E. Barley, the
majority leader, gave some indi-
cation Of this in a speech favoring
a bill to open the doors of Pales-
tine. He said:
1--WE of the Christian world can
more thoroughly appreciate than
we could a week ago the feeling
of Jews over the world on account
of the ruthless murder of their
people. We can more fittingly
understand the reactions of Jews
everywhere to these murders and
slaughters now that we have
learned of the ruthless, conscience
less murder of men of our own
nation by one of the Axis
powers"

have realized is that many Amer

George Santayana
Waiting TO DE-
In Rome Hospital
BY EDWARD p. MORGAN,
War Correspondent of The Star and
Chicago Daily News

ROME, June l4-Virtually obli-
vious to the ebb and flow of war
past his window. George Santayana,
celebrated 80-year- old Spanish phi
losopher and writer, has spent the
last two and a half years in peace
full Seclusion in a Catholic hospital
in Rome writing two books and
waiting contentedly to die.
Despite his years, the former
Harvard professor has firm hand
shake and an agile mind.
Il am suffering from nothing ex-
cept old age" he said in an inter-
view.
Clad in a gray dressing gown,
blue pajamas, and a black tie, Mr.
ISantayana conversed freely about
his latest works which include the
second and final book of his auto
biography, Persons and Places" "
and a theological work entitled,
The Idea of Christ in the Gospels,
or God in Man

Sisters of the Little Company
of Mary" order who operate the
hospital call him Our Hermit. y
The war has made it impossible
for him to keep up any contacts
with the outside world but, he says,
that has not worried him,
One of his latest visitors was the
renegade Idaho poet, Ezra Pound,
who faces charges of treason in the
United States because of his propa-
ganda broadcasts and writings from
Italy on behalf of Fascism. That
occasion was two or three months
ago. Pound is supposedly some

fact that wartime freezing of funds
obliged him to be a nonpaying
guest at the hospital. However
through his nephew. George Stur-
CESS of Boston, he has been able
to send money to the hospital
which the Little Company of Mary
order has in Evergreen Park,
Chicago.
One of the last persons Mr.. San
tayana heard from in the United
States-from which he has been
Evening star., 1944-06-14

absent for the last 80 years-was
the former diplomat, Boylston
Beale, OF Boston.
The author does not plan to pub
lish the second volume of his auto
biography yet because it involves
many persons still living and he
said he does not want to feel in
hibited about discussing anybody.

Levin and 7OO-Pound
Levy Mat Maqnetos

Dave Levin, q rough and ring
wise rassler who charges that Babe
Sharkey has been masquerading as
worlds heavyweight champion here
when he has no right to the crown,
is coming to Washington next
Wednesday night to embarrass the
big Texan as much as possible.
Levin Is holder of the National
Wrestling Associations fancy belt
emblematic of the global heavy
title. and after challenging Sharkey
persistently, has persuaded Joe
Turner to let him prove his case.
Turner has matched Levin with
Angelo Savoldi in the w street
arena feature tangle Wednesday
night. He will see what Levin can
show against the tough Angelo, and
will be willing to steer Dave toward
a showdown with Sharkey If he can
trounce a few other huskies In the
stable.
Supporting match for the feature
bout will present the 700-pound
Blimp Levy, whom Turner will
derrick into the ring to meet Butch
Slater, and also booked is Duke
Keokuma, the American-born Japa-
nese, in a tangle with John Vansky.

up. I kept my left in his face as
much as possible, but for the two
rounds we boxed he hit me at will,
and I connected very seldom.
The little slugger is a clever
fighter, as every one in the flstic
business knows, but from the stand
point Of the guy who fights him,
he's q lot more than that. He moves
like panther and has that brutality
that's In the makeup Of all champs,
and although Wright Is q slight
favorite to beat him Tuesday night,
I wouldn't care to be In Chalky's
shoes in that bout.
There's been a lot Of discussion
about Wilson's left arm, broken
awhile back in a fight, and the ques-
ton has been raised whether the
arm Is healed sufficiently. for Tues
days bout. I can add proof to the
boxing commission doctor's report
that the arm Is Is good as ever. 1t
was Jackie's left hand that closed
my left eye, and at the time I was
wearing Silva's very fancy head
guard that almost completely pro-
tects the orb. To close q mans eye
through an inch Of leather protec-
ton takes good arm, even when
the eye belongs to a writer who is
no fighter.
