ln-und Out-of Line

"A lOHR, long line tO1 RepuDllCan
advisers) is winding toward Albany.
Senator Vandenberg of Michigan
was first to reach the end of the
trail-and Governor Thomas E.
Dewey But only the first. He will
be followed. in days to come. by
many others.
It Is natural that Senator VAN
denberg should have been in front.
He long has been a friend and ad-
mirer of the New York Governor.
He comes from Michigan. Dewey's
birth State, where the Governor
spent the first twenty-one years of
his forty-two years of life. Further
more, Senator Vandenberg has had
an important hand in framing OF the
Republican platform plank on for
eign affairs-to be the subject of
much discussion in the coming
campaign.
Senator Vandenberg's part in
drafting the foreign affairs plank
began as chairman of a subcommit-
tee Of the Republican Postwar Ad-
visory Council, which wrote the So
called Mackinac declaration-the
basis of the platform plank. He can
talk to the Governor with consid-
cradle authority about the pros and
cons of Republican sentiment.
Close on his heels, Senator Austin
OF Vermont will go to Albany-also
to discuss foreign affairs. Senator
Austin Is one Of the more ardent
advocates of international collabo-
ration. Like Senator Vandenberg,
he knows the Senate and he feels
that the foreign affairs plank in the
platform is an able document, not
a straddling instrument.
Still another prospective visitor
not yet lined up, however-is Wen
dell L. Willkie, who awaits with
interest Governor Dewey's own in
terpretative elaboration of the Re-
publican platform foreign relations
plank. Upon that Interpretation
may depend Mr.. WILKES own atti-
tude toward the Dewey -Bricker
ticket. and whether Mr.. Willkie will
also make a pilgrimage to Albany.
Some of Mr. WILKES friends al
ready have talked with the Gov
ernor. Others. including Governor
Saltonstall and Senator Weeks Of
Massachusetts,. are on their way to
Albany. But until Mr.. Willkie gets
In the Albany line. and expresses
satisfaction with the views of the
nominee, the Republicans will be
slow to decide whether their ranks
have really been closed for the COM
ing campaign.

what they did.
Military necessity often permits
first news of our attacks to come
from the enemy. He begins chat
tering over the radio before our
ships have been able to break radio
silence. Not so with the B-20s. Be-
fore their first bombs have crashed
below, they are telling the world
OF where they are and what they
are doing and scooping the Japs in
the telling. The Goth Air Force is
breaking precedents right and left,
confident of its power, sure of itself,
shouting "Betsy!" for all who will

Good for Betsy!

On the afternoon of June IS
small group of officers in the Pen
tagon Building watched teletype
machine for a word that would
signal the entry into this war of a
powerful new weapon. Finally it
came. The ticker flashed Betsy"
and within a few moments the world
was being told that B-29 bombers
were over the target of Yawata, in
Japan. and that bombs were away.
On Friday the performance was
repeated. When the code word from
a B-29 radioman high in the sky
reached it's destination in the Pen
tagon, officers there and across the
world in China simultaneously re-
leased communiques, giving the
news that bombs again were on their
way to other targets in Japan. A

Balkan Political Snuos

The prickly character of Balkan
politics is exemplif1ed by current
developments in Greece and Yugo-
slavia. The Greek situation is the
more Immediately disconcerting.
There recent attempts to form
common front have clearly broken
down, while in Yugoslavia a po-
litical maneuver has been effected
which is seemingly no solution to
the internal problem.
The Greek blowup is disclosed in
a lengthy communique issued by the
Hellenic News Agency, official organ
Of the Greek government in exile.
Under strong Allied pressure, rep
resentatives of the various factions
within Greece that have been wag-
ing fratricidal warfare assembled
with the exiled leaders in the neu-
trail atmosphere of Beyrut, Syria,
and there drew up an agreement
known as the Lebanon National
Charter. For the moment all looked
we'll, but, in view of subsequent de-
velopments, the label seems to have
been unduly optimistic. According
to Premier George Papandreou,
head of the coalition government,
the wrecker of harmony is the Com
munist faction known as the EAM.
The Prime Minister charges that
EAM has made supplementary de-
mands which, If acceded to, would
virtually turn Greece over to Com
munist control. TT means" he says,
"the immediate formation of an
EAM government in the mountains,
an army belonging to EAM, EAM
control of the gendarmerie and po-
| lice, the administration of Justice
and the inspiration of education by
the EAM. In short, it means the
nations submission to EAM." OF
course, we have not yet heard EAM's
side OF the story, but the Premier's
charges are in character with EAM's
past performances, including its
sponsorship of the recent mutiny in
the Greek armed forces. At any
rate, the Greek factional split is so
pronounced that an immediate rec
onciliation would seem to be impos-
sible, prospect which can favor
only the Germans.
Superf1cially, the Yugoslav situa-
ton looks better. AS a result of
prolonged conferences between the
revolutionary regime of Marshal
Tito and Ivan Subasic, appointed
provisional Prime Minister by King
Peter, a cabinet has been formed
wherein Mr.. Subasic still holds the
key portfolios, with lesser posts
given to two Serbs, two Croats and
two Slovenes. This is a complete
defeat for the Serb nationalists
typified by Mikhailovitch. The Serbs
in the new cabinet belong to the
| former opposition, and the cabinet

Siena, occupied by Allied troops,
including Americans, is reported
relatively undamaged. The meaning
Of the news to lovers Of art would be
difficult to exaggerate. No other city
in Tuscany, except only Florence, is
richer in works of beauty. The story
Of its independent culture dates back
to the days Of Augustus Caesar. 1t
had its own counts in the time Of
Charlemagne. BY 1125 it was a re-
public. Wars with neighboring COM
munities unfortunately weakened its
resistance to the dictator Clan
Galeazzo Visconti in 1899 and gave
opportunity to another autocrat,
Pandolfo Petrucci I'll Magnifico" in
1887. The Spaniards were in possess
sion in 1880, but the Marquis of
Marignano, representing Cosimo de
Medici, was a worse affliction in 1855.
Meanwhile, the authentic spirit Of
the Sienese people fiowered despite
their troubles. A style of architec-
ture all their own developed in the
cathedral, the Palazzo Comunale
and many fine mansions belonging
to wealthy members of the "popolo
crosse" Michelangelo's forerun-
ner, Iacopo della Quercia, estab-
lished in the neighborhood a school
OF sculpture which survived during
several hundred years, and still has
influence upon Italian modelling. It
was in painting, however, that Siena
reached its apex of creative achieve
ment. All through the fourteenth,
fifteenth and sixteenth centuries
great masters of pencil and brush
flourished The list begins with
Duccio di Buoninsegna, whose cele-
brated "Maesta" in the Opera del
Duomo was an inspiration for a

Siena in its modern guise, as the
soldiers of the United Nations will
see it, retains its medieval charac-
teristics to degree not exceeded by
any other city in Central Italy. It
covers three hills between the Arbia

Wings Like q Dover
BY the Reu. Clifford Homer Richmond, S. r. D.,
Minister OF the Cheuy Chase Methodist Church.

All about us are people who are
trying to run away from life. IF
only had another position, another
husband or another wife: II I only
were in another situation, I'd be
happy" they say. So, they go from
one Job to another, one place to an
other, one husband or ono wife to an
other; but. they don't get away from
anything; they are not any happier.
They just 60 from one set of prob
lens to another set of problems; from
one man or woman with clay feet to
another with clay feet: for, it gener-
ally is true that If you cannot be
happy where you are, with what you
have, you cannot be happy anywhere,
with anything or anybody.
No, you never will solve your prob
lens by running away from them.
You must face them courageously, do
your best, and find your peace in
their midst. 1t was true that Jesus
said: Come unto Me and I will give
you rest" But that rest was not
freedom from trouble. Rather, He
said: In the world ye shall have
tribulation; but, be of good cheer, 1
have overcome the world" In other
words: You will have your problems
and troubles as long as you live; but
do not dispair. will give you power
to so face them that you will have
joy even in sorrow, faith in doubt,
hope IN discouragement, peace in
pain!"
When, therefore, men have come to
Christ and put their trust In Him
they have found something better
than wings like dove; namely, a
serenity which nothing can move.
Paul and Silas, for example, were ar
rested, beaten and thrown into pris-
on; but, at midnight, in prison, they
sang: Songs in the Night" That
may be the experience OF every Child
OF God. For in God we may find a
light that no darkness can dim, a
hand no panic can weaken. a bull
wark no storm can beat down. God
is our hope. strength and peace. He
Is the Eternal Home of the Soul! So:
Peace, heart of mine! No longer sigh
to wander:
Lose not they life in fruitless quest.
There are no happy islands over
yonder;
Come home and rest!"
Evening star., 1944-07-09

"Oh, that I had wings like a dove!
For then would I fly away and be
at rest" psalm lv.6.)
You almost can hear the pant of
a soul in these moving words. David
craved nothing else so earnestly as
to be permitted to get away-to find
rest by flight. His one great sim
against Uriah was fresh in his mind.
The waywardness Of his son, Absa-
lom; his conspiracy to get his fathers
throne, and his consequent death
all cast their shadow over his trou-
bled spirit. And now, the last blow:
Ahithophel, his most trusted friend,
had gone over to the enemy. For 1t
was not an enemy that reproached
me-" said David. Then I could have
borne it. But it was thou, a man
mine equal, my guide and mine
acquaintance. We took sweet counsel
together and walked unto the house
OF God in company" David lacked
the strength to stand against this
new calamity. He was tired of
struggling. He asked for nothing now
except to get away. Let the king
dom 60. Let jmpious hands be laid
on the holy vessels. Let God look
after things! Oh, that I had wings
like a dove! For then would I fly
away and be at rest!"
How natural and ineligible is this
cry from the human heart. There
are times when the soul can pray no
other prayer. There are times when
life strikes blow after blow upon our
poor, weak, defenseless minds and
souls; then, we long for wings like
dove" Even the Master Himself
reached out His hand to push away
the cup of bitterness. Father, II It
be possible" He said, '1et this cup
pass from mel" It Is no mark of
shame to want to get away and be at
rest. 1t is only a sign that life is
too much for us. Catching the mood
OF David, we cry: "Oh, that had
wings like dove! For then would I
fly away and be at rest!"
Still, 1t is sad mistake to suppose
that soul ever really escapes from
life by flying away from it. David
himself later realized that fact. He
learned that the only way to be at
rest was to remain at home and do
his duty to the best OF his ability,
with Gods help
