throughout their history by all the ma
lions of the world except America. The
few who were recognized as nationalist
by some nations were given that recogni-
ton only after generations had lived
within the boundaries of those nations.
They have never been permitted, in most
instances, to call nation their own.
These people have contributed to the
doctrines of freedom this world cherishes.
They have produced great scientists,
moralists and patriots. They have con-
tributed their intellect and spirit to the
cause of freedom for the people. Per-
haps if this world some day attains a
balanced international plane the Jews
will have found their home. Truly they
are the most international of people SIM
ply because of their forced wanderingS
they have never been exposed to the in
sularity of nationalism.
Certainly the heroic dead among the
Jews of Europe deserve the recognition of
representation at the peace conference.
They were the earliest victims Of the
Nazi brutality whose sacrifices eventually
reaveled to the freedom loving nations
the ruthless direction of Hitler and his
Stone-age cohorts.

Holding the Line

Speaking of that well-knoWn line
against initiation, it would appear that
the people as well as the government
are holding it.
Figures show that Americans had an
income of 1913 billions in 1941 and spent
S746 billions, or 80 per cent OF it, In
1914 our income was $157 billions, of
which $976 billions was spent. That's
only 81 per cent of the national income.
Of course, there were fewer things to
buy, but what there were cost consider
ably more.
Not only did we spend 18 per cent less
of our income last year than in Al. we
also saved per cent more OF it and PAID
per cent more in taxes.
After putting S18 billions into war
bonds, savings accounts and insurance,
we still had SIT billions in ''loose money.
If we had started throwing it around, or
liquidating most of our bonds and saw
ings, there might have been a start to-
ward real and dangerous initiation.
Fortunately, we didn't And while we
may still hold our breath bit, were
still holding the line. We need to keep
doing it, And there still doesn't seem TO
be better specific for initiation than put
ting that loose money in war bonds-and
keeping it there.

The Empty Conference Chair

We cannot balance against each other
the dead of the various nations who were
slaughtered in the death camps of the
Nazis - and say this one suffered worse
than the other. The dead do not care
now but when tortorous death was ap-
preaching each, the suffering must not
have known any proportion but that OF
terror. We are attempting, by means of
the San Francisco conference, to trans
late that suffering into the tangible
memorial of world peace for the nations
of these victims.
Yet who among the peoples of Europe
suffered more than the Jews of Europe?
They suffered not only final death but
years of tortorous persecution which
must have seemed death thousand
times over. These people are not repre-
sented at San Francisco as nation or
people. What will he their memorial?
They are a wandering people these
Jews of Europe without nation or home.
They have been denied nationality
The Waterbury Democrat. [volume] (Waterbury, Conn.) 1917-1946, 1945-05-01

No doubt when visiting dignitaries to
the San Francisco conference get around
to it some of them are bound to ask how
the city got it's name. We hope this won't
embarrass the Americans who are acting
as guides and accompanies. But after
reading how the conference opened with.
out the benefit Of prayer, we wonder II
a hesitant answer on the name derivation
mayn't be forthcoming. Latin visitors
won't need any explanation of the mean
ing of "San" and "Francisco', but how
many others will realize that the Pacific
Coast city was named for saint? Maybe
our facetiousness is far-fetched, but
that's the way we feel after dwelling on
Secretary of State Edward Stettinius' rea-
sons for not having the conference, the
worlds most important, open with re-
quest that the Almighty bless and guide

Republicans are not too sure that they
like the manner in which Gov. Raymond
E. Baldwin has handled the major ap-
pointments to date. The list fails to
show that any of his companions on the
COP ticket last fall have landed jobs.
Almost everyone of them was candl-

Views Of The Press
AFTER THE NIGHT OF DEATH
Manchester Herald

More than one person to whom
We talked had this same thought
yesterday morning, SO perhaps
thousands actually shared it.
You had spent the preceding
evening and night in close and So
Der contact with the finality Of
death, as applied to a notable and
famous career. You had noted
how quickly, how summarily, the
living Of even the greatest among
us could be snuffed out. Perhaps,
with thought to the tortured is
sues Of the day, you had spent part
Of the night wondering how things
could go on.
Then, yesterday morning, you
stepped outside your door, yourself
on the way to pick UP the routine
of living. And you noticed, after
the dim thoughts Of tragedy and
death which may have filled your
night, that the sun was climbing
its heaven in a more than seasonal
splendor. Perhaps you thought
that never before had it seemed
more gloriously full of life.
Then you onticed that, overnight
the tree which had been in bud
yesterday had unfolded tender
green leaves, to grow and expand
into summer shade and then fall in
some sudden autumn swirl Of
death. You noticed that there was
a new fragrance on the air, and
you turned to find an apple tree
whose buds had burst between sun
set and sunrise.
Perhaps you found these signs of
continuing, expanding, newly-born
life painfully poignant az first, al
most sacrilege against the mood
of the night just past. And then,
perhaps, you b.oan to know again
which was mightier, death or life,
mortality or immortality. All about
you, it was life, incredibly and
contrastingly beautiful life, which
owned the world. After the night
of death, the morning was life.
