Respect for the Flag

Last week, S/Sgt. Ruple c. Lowhorn, of the
Post Military Police detachment, wrote let
ter to the Apache Sentinel decrying the lax
ness of Post military personnel in matters which
pertain to respect due to the American Flag.
The sergeant wakes wroth at how dismount-
ed soldiers sometimes remain sitting when the
colors pass them at parade and how persons
who ride in vehicles fail to render the proper
honor to the national colors when passing them.
lit also angers him to watch tenanted vehicles
continue to roll during the retreat ceremony,
when the notes Of the bugle can be clearly
heard.
Sgt Lowhorn justifies the anger in his heart
by stating that the flag is a symbol Of democ
racy a tangible evidence of the idea for which
men are dying on battlefields all the
world, and, as such, deserves all the honor
and reverence which can display.
Difference and courtesy to officers is obig
atory, because officers can command the cour-
tesy which is sometimes forgotten by heed
less soldiers.
Respect for the flag, however, is something
that must come from the soldier heart. Moth
ing but consciousness of being integral part
of people united for freedom can impel the
proper honor for the national colors
We hope that in Huachuca that conscious
mess may be made to flame more brightly and
that we as guardians of the heritage of
country, become less forgetful Of the courtesy
due her flag.
Sgt. Lowhorn is to be commended for bring
ing the matter to the attention of all OF us.

The Enemy in America

Many of us believe that the only enemies
America has either in Europe or the Pa
cific. Not all of us are aware of the enemy
in our own back yard-an enemy who may
actually do more harm than bombs or guns
Some of us don't believe he exists any more
But please take it from who has been
studying him at first hand for nearly five years
he is very much alive and more sinister than
any saboteur who blows up factories and power
plants
This psychological enemy of our democracy
is insidious and cunning. He works on the-
minds of the masses = sowing distrust and
doubt, dissenson and defeatism and through
the medium of sly and weasel words plants
the seeds of hate and disunity behind the lines
of our fight against F1iterism.
For we are fighting two wars: a military
abroad and psychological war here. If .
we win military victory abroad and lose the
peace due to our failure to defeat the enemy
at home then we have lost all we fought for

found in my years of experience an under
cover agent that these native would-be Quis-
lings always wrap the Constitution and the Flag
around themselves and scream patriotism"
and Americanism till it gushes out of their
ears.
aSclSt leaders like these have debaSed thee
three holiest words in our rlanguage-Christan-

used them to further their own ant-democratic
ends. recall the example set by William Dud-
ley Pelley, happily in prison for sedition,
whose so-called Christian Party was financed
by Nazi capital, and who brandished the slogan :
Christ and the Constitution. Many others
of those who yelled patriotism accepted
Nazi money, were caught by Wgilant De-
partment Of Justice, and also in Jail.
Now, more than ever, is the time to ask
questions Be from Missouri If you hear
or read anything from these self-styled patri-
otic organizations, find out who the men and
women are behind it, what they trying to
do, and why. Beware Of groups individuals
that wave the flag too prominently. Remem-

And | saw a maiden there;
She wore peach stains on her forehead
And red flowers in her hair.
She gay and blythe and happy,
White as snow her smile did glearu,
And she lifted stems of znnias
Like graceful merry dream.
And thought as | was leaving
Sprteful maiden in the sun,
Howfore shall you spend tomorrow
When sparkling youth and Joy is done2
Shall the shadows falling softly
Find you straining tense and sere-
Past all hope of dream and laughter,
In some vague and distant year2
But smiled then with this maiden
travelling mine pale way
And my heart seemed so less laden
With the tolls of yesterday

John Cammack
The latter was evidently descended
from William Cammack, who hailed
from Jefferson County, Va, and who
married in Washington on August 8,
1920, Eleanor Connell, the ceremony
being performed by Rev. John Chal-
mers. Prior to 1860 and subsequently he
was florist and had his greenhouses
at Thirteenth and E streets, where is
now the Earle Theater, and at Four
teenth and r streets. His home was on
Seventh street near the tollgate." And
here he was succeeded by his sons John
and Edmund. Writing of this branch
of the family in 1880, Lambert Tree
said:
"Sixty years ago our markets were but
poorly supplied. Where now hundreds
are engaged in catering to the wants
of our large population, then few de-
crepit Negroes, with a small amount Of
indifferent vegetables, represented our
market dealers. No perceptible change
occurred until Jesse Brown, proprietor
of the Queens Hotel, employed Mr..
Cammack a practical gardener, to culti-
vate piece Of ground belonging to him
near his hotel. Mr.. Cammack, who may
be considered the pioneer gardener of
this section, produced a wonderful
change in the quality and quantity of
market vegetables. 1t Is said that Mr..
Brown not only supplied his own table
but realized $500 per annum from the
sale of superhuous products

1t then being a toll road. Prior to the
Civil War the roads and thoroughfares
leading to and from Brightwood were
few and far between. The Seventh
street turnpike was narrow, and at
times-especially after heavy rains
impossible. Fortunately for the people
Of Brightwood they had a very in
fiuential and important neighbor in
Francis Preston Blair, whose home was
at Silver Spring, and, of course, when
Montgomery Blair, the son, came into
prominence his support in securing
needed Improvements connecting the
city with Silver Spring, could also be
depended upon, and no doubt it was
due to the elder Blair's efforts that a
plank road was laid on the Seventh
street turnpike in 1852.
The Road of Planks
These So-called planks, it is said, were
trees split in halves, with the rounded
side down. They were laid from Bound
ary street, now Florida avenue, all the
way to the District line, and, at the
time it was said that it was expected
to continue this type of road to Silver
Spring, where Mr.. Blair lived And no
doubt this pioneer had every expecta-
ton of making good and frequent use
of this road

was hardly wide enough for two teams
to pass each other, and only the lighter
