ON SMETONA'S DEATH

Mr.. Martin L. Sweeney, former
u. S. Congressman from Cleve-
land, wrote the following ar
ticle in connection with Presi-
dent Smetona's death. This ar
ticle was printed n The Cleve-
land News and The Cleveland
press.)
Dirva = Field. [volume] (Cleveland, Ohio) 1915-current, 1944-01-21

To the L .itor of the News-Sir:
On Thursday, January 13, 1888, flu
neral services for Antanas Smeto-
ma, late president of the Republic
of Lithuania, took place at st.
Johns Cathedral, mother church of
the Catholic diocese of Cleveland.
AS the flag -draped casket was
being carried into the church, one
looked in vain for representation Of
the United States Amy, Navy or
Marines; one looked in vain for the
mayor of the city, the governor of
who might take time out to pay
tribute to the George Washington
Of a small nation of whom we are
told we are fighting to preserve.
Twice the elected president of
his native land, Antanas Smetona,
epurned the advances of Nazi Ger
many and the Soviet Union. Here
was q man who could have lived
in luxury had he become q Quisling
and sold out his native land.
When he arrived in this country
in 1O41 our government received
him as hero. He was honored
with a salute Of II guns, an honor
always accorded to visiting ruler
Of a foreign state: In his death he
received only silence from the gov
ernment that proclaims the four
freedoms for all nations, large or
small. Had Earl Browder, leader
of the American Communists, or
some secondhand British lord, died
in cur city there is no doubt that
the government would have been
at the funeral with a
lot of gold braid and palace guards.
President Smetona died in the
obscurity he desired, awaiting the
day when his voice and his pen
would again take up the cause of
human freedom. He has not died
in vain.
The courageous bishop of Cleve-
land, Most Rev. Edward F. Hoban,
paid q beautiful tribute to the late
president, and sang the requiem
mass over his remains.
On this occasion Lithuanian
friend of long standing remarked
to be that "he thought the death
Of Smetona was tragic. replied
the answer to that is in Ernest
Crosby's poem, "Life and Death.
Here it is:
So he died for his faith That
is fine;
: More than most of us do.
But, say, can you add to that line,
That he lived for it, too?
In his death he bore witness
at last,
As martyr to the truth.
Did his life do the same in the
past,
From the days of his youth?
1t is easy to die. Men have died,
For a wish or a whim-
From bravado or passion or pride,
Was it harder for him?
But to live-cvery day to live out
All the truth that he dreamt,
While his friends met his conduct
with doubt,
And the world with contempt.
Was it thus that he plodded
ahead,
Never turning aside?
Then we'll talk Of the life that he
lived,
Never mind how he died.
MARTIN L. SWEENEY.

the private economy of this coun.
ty will be invited to contact his
local bank or building and loan
association.
Ellis proposition will be care
fully analysed. and if his financial
condition does not comply with
the requirements of the lending
institutions, his proposition will be
referred to Wilmington Associates
for further analysis. If his posi-
bilities are sufficiently convincing,
ne will be supplied by Wilmington
Associates with sufficient addi-
tional capital to secure ample
credit from his bank"
Thornton declared that every
competent man, firm and corpo-
ration that needs bank credit for
some constructive purpose will get
it and for adequate amounts and
for sufficient length of time to
do the job. This, he said, is the
dynamic credit policy adopted by
the Postwar Small Credit COM
mission in mobilizing the nations
banks behind a new and forward
looking program that will assure
adequate bank credit to meet the
needs of small business in the
postwar period.
Through these postwar plans,
he said, banking will fortify the
principles of private enterprise.
''The problem of increased peace
time production, employment and
opportunity for the people of this
nation can only be met and solved
satisfactorily through the efforts
of a free people - free in their
right to achieve success through
their own intelligence, courage
and ability. Such a free people
will. make the maximum use of a
free and independent banking sys.
tenn such as will be provided by
the banks of this country in the
postwar period. Working together
in the spirit of free enterprise
banking, business, industry and
agriculture will create a vigorous
and healthy postwar economy"
The organization of the banks Of
North Carolina to cooperate with
the credit commission was init.
ated at a meeting Of the State
Bankers association in Raleigh on
Oct. II. The organization will be
perfected by group meetings Of
the banks to be held during No

Youngsters Think Trusting
Mothers Are Just Gullible

And the young girls sitting in
poorly lighted taverns, growing
more sentimental with each drink.
Their parents must be so gullible
they don't even sit up to see what
time their kids get home and
whether or not they have had any,
thing to drink.
COSTLY CONFIDENCE
Of course, parents like to be-
lieve whatever their kids tell them.
It is SO comforting to think that
sweet little Susie is studying al
zebra with Jane. It would be
mighty uncomfortable if mother let
herself wonder if Susie might not
be somewhere else.
But in these times parents can't
afford the temporary peace of
mind they received from being
what they call trusting and their
kids call gullible. They ought to
make it their business to KNOW
what their kids are up to.
The Wilmington morning star., 1944-11-01

The two pretty college girls were
talking over the weekend they had
spent at home and one of them
told how she had managed to
spend an evening at a joint her
father had told her to keep away
from.
Parent are so gullible," h e
said as she finished her story
and both girls laughed indulgently.
Parents today must be gullible.
Otherwise, how do you account
for the numbers of sweet-faced
young kids strolling along down.
town streets at night, their giggles
and sidewise glances at boys in
uniform telling the world they
are just waiting to be picked
up. Certainly their parents don't
know what they are up to. They
must think they are at a movie,
or listening to records at one of
the girls houses or studying for
a mythical exam.

1.-The object of the bankers ne

anyone desiring to enter business
for himself or to secure funds for
the expansion or continuation OF
a business already in existence
will receive adequate credit, pro-

There was recently organized
here a group of 70 citizens, known
as Wilmington Associates, who
have created pool of investment
capital amounting to $3.50, 1000, to
be drawn upon to supplement tae
efforts of the Postwar Small Bust
