Letters to The Star
Plight of Baltic Nations Stirs
Soldier to Protest
70 the EDITOR nf The star.

To the Editor Of The Star:
Your editorial of August 4 raises this
pertinent question: why should peo-
Piles and provinces be bartered about
from sovereignty to sovereignty as If
they were chattels or pawns in the
great game Of power politics or the
balance of power amongst the large
nations?"
Let us not overlook the fact that
Estonians, Latvians and Lithuanians
are not Slavs, but are distinct peoples
who have proved themselves capable to
manage their own affairs, were recog-
nized as sovereign nations by Soviet
Russia and did develop a standard of
living that was higher than in the
adjoining sections of Soviet Russia.
Besides, how can any one assume that
these Baltic peoples, who have more
in common with their Scandinavian
neighbors, are so anxious to join the
Soviet Union If they were given free
choice in the matter? Let us not forget
that Stain got his sphere Of influence
in the Baltic and Hitler his "go" signal
in the conquest of Europe at the time
of the German-Russian alliance, and
then when Hitler arrived at the Polish
Russian border as delineated by the
Curzon Line and attacked Russia, the
picture changed
Soviet Russia tried to bring the Bal
tic nations into her fold by disrupting
their institutions and governments, by
exiling good numbers of the people to
Siberia and by electing to office under
controlled elections Quisling puppets of
her own choosing. Then, when Nazi
Germany overran these countries, the
same procedure was followed. In both
instances there were brutal regimes.
Yes, we do want to be friendly Allies
with Great Britain and Soviet Russia
and have them in turn to be the same
with us. They wanted us to enter this
war, which we did. We gave them
enormous material help and did bring
Germany down to her knees. The least
that we can expect of our Allies Is that
they shall respect the rights Of peoples
who were freed from the Nazi yoke, so
that they may have free choice in their
form of governments, elect their own
candidates through the holding Of uni
versal free elections, and also give the
small nations the right to establish
their own geographic, self-sustaining,
economic considerations.
We have been led to believe that this
was q war of liberation, battle of de-
mocracies to smash the Axis powers so
as to bring about in turn better world
order, peace, freedom and economic
collaboration amongst nations, whether
large or small.
In the name Of good common sense,
why should we hedge, appease and COM
promise our principles? Or have we
already forgotten that Chamberlain
like appeasements viii not avail us
anything. but rather eventually will
lead us to other complications?

In Praise of the Berrymans

In FralSe OF the BerrymanS
To the Editor of The Star:
With all due respect to editorial and
columnist pundits, whose words, wise
and sometimes otherwise, never fail
to read in the utterly indispensable
Evening Star, the most delightful fea-
ture to me is always the Bergman car
toon. So much praise deservedly has
been spoken respecting the Cliff Berry
man masterpieces of wit and humor,
that it strikes me rs timely to express
appreciation for the truly remarkable
work Of Jim Bergman. His drawings
are not only significant contributions
to current events and the historical
scene, but his craftsmanship, to a fell
low craftsman, Is never-failing de-
light. He Is q master Of chiaroscuro;
the light elements of his drawings
sparkle, while his shaded surfaces have
depth and texture. His portraiture is
amazing in its perfection of facial ex-
preston, while his delineation of ac-
cesSories Is perfect in detail and illus
trative craftsmanship. In appropriate
ness, historical significance, and sheer
wit, few cartoons will surpass Jim
Berryman's picture of Clement Attlee
with his enormous bag OF votes facing
bemused Churchill with his little sack,
while the great ex-Prime Minister pa
rodies his most famous epigram, Never
in the history of political conflict did so
few receive so little from so many!"
Recent space limitations no doubt
have prevented the insertion of more of
Jim Berryman's sports cartoons. As
one who has never read sports page
In his entire life, I yet can testify that
more than once Jim's sports cartoons
had me in stitches. Residents of WASH
ington are fortunate in many things,
not the least of which Is great news

great cartoonists

Indian Wars Veterans Oldest

To the Editor OF The Star:
In the Sunday Star for August it
is stated that Scott Hall at the United
States Soldiers Home Is the admins
tration building. That is not correct.
1t is just like other buildings dormi-
tory or quarters for men. The actual
administration building is on the left
hand side Of Eagle Gate entrance, on
Upshur street.
1t also is stated that veterans Of the
Spanish-American War are the Oldest
members Of the home. But the fact is
that the oldest are veterans of the In
dian Wars in the West, now 80 to 90
years Of age. There still are a few Of

Dear Sir:
This is one of the few times I must
disagree with you and agree with our
Falls Church blackberrying enthusiast.
My husband and are berrying enthusi-
asts, and feel that perhaps you have
never tasted blackberry jelly, jam, pie
and cobbler, and perhaps you have never
been in really truly blackberry patch
early in the morning when all the
meadows are fresh with dew, accom-
panied by the happy songs of birds.
100 often stress Is placed upon the
negative, such as snakes, chiggers and
the like, but, oh, SO little said about the
positive, OF which far more abounds.
"One gets what he looks for, and we
got large, shining, ripe berries from
luxurious tall vines, and perhaps we did
get scratch or two, but remember how
beautiful the roses are in spite of their
thorns.
Now that I've had my say about our
friends the blackberries I feel I can
enjoy their jelly, ETC., on hot pancakes
and wafiies in the days to come.
Yours for bigger and better black
berries, m. B. K"
So person born in Indiana doesn't
Ho, no, no!
Out there they have always had the
best food in the world, bushels of it. and
they still do.
Some of the Hoosiers prefer peaches
and some blackberries, but they like best
hot soda biscuits and butter.
As matter Of fact, they usually like
everything in the food line. Probably
there Is no State In the Union where
they like good eating so well, or know
how to cook it so well.
Perhaps we should admit to being bit
fnicky in our tastes. Hence we prefer
peaches to blackberries We hate spinach
and despise onions. So there.
AS for chicken, we haven't tasted a
really good one any place except in
Indiana. Those Indiana chickens are
the best In the whole world, tasty and
tender.
II you haven't eaten Indiana chicken
you haven't eaten anything at all. The
meat is delicate, with taste all its own,
superchicken Of the wide world.
AS for pumpkin Eve pronounce it
punkin) pie. nobody but the Hoosier
women know how to make it, Every pie
We have tasted elsewhere has been simply
spice pie, or sweet potato pie, lacking
the real punkin flavor. Maybe its the
soil and the air Of our native State, and
maybe it, just nostalgia, ws wouldn't
know.

This and That
By Charles E. TrdceUelI.
MCKINLEY PLACE.

Dear Sir:
I'm the spring I spaded UP a piece of
ground for gardening and noticed large
numbers of Japanese beetle grubs.
Il picked these up and placed them In
quart-sized can for later disposal.
Il noticed several yellowjackets hover
Ing over the can. When I finished dig
ging there was about an inch or more of
grubs in the can. left them for awhile
and attended to other chores.
About two hours later, intending to
dispose Of the grubs. there was swarm
OF yellowjackets in and around the can.
Not caring to start an argument with
them, did not remove the can until
dusk, at which time the grubs had been
entirely consumed.
L have noticed since then that yellow
jackets hover over and light upon newly
turned ground. 1t appears that these
winged destroyers are possible helping
element in the destruction Of the Japa-
nese beetle pest.
Your column is tops.
