country that waves the four free
doms at the slightest provocation.
Before Milton was transferred to
Terre Haute he helped lead a sue
cessful fight at Milan against seq
regated dormitories and dining
room. But the blood bank incident
two years ago was too much for
the warden at Milan, Millions good
time" was forfeited. II he had
given his blood in silence and made
no protest, he would today be free
on parole.
Milton Kramer is no martyr in
search of publicity. He writes his
friends and family that he wants
to get out of prison. But Warden
Shuttleworth at Milan who origi-
nally made the smuggling charge
now claims that Milton is no longer
under his jurisdiction. There is
nothing that l can do" says he.
Warden 0verlade at Terre Haute
passes the buck right back to his
colleague Shuttleworth by refusing
to review the Smuggling" charge
when replying to inquiries about
Millions parole. Their cordial form
letters to friends of Milton virtu-
ally drip with crocodile tears.
Even if we should grant the truth
of Warden Shuttleworth's charge,
the fact that a written communica-
ton handed to a Red Cross doctor
in the Warden's presence is con-
sidered smuggling would reflect on
the prisons unreasonable rules and
regulations, and not on Milton. Ac-
cording to what law on the statute
books does a prisoner forfeit his
right to petition and right Of free
speech? Petitions for writs Of
habeas corpus have often been
Struggled" out of prisons and
chain gangs.
AS a Jew who knows no color
line, Milton Kramer is a symbol
of the growing ties between minor
tiles. AS a conscientious objector
he epitomizes the wide and healthy
differences of viewpoint within each
minority. AS a man who defied
bureaucratic RECOMMENDATION and
stood steadfast on his principles,
he belongs with the shock troops
on the ramparts of democracy.
As soon as | heard about this
sordid case, wrote Immediately
to James V. Bennett, the director
of the Federal Bureau of Prisons,
Washington, D. c., demanding
Millions release.
Now that you too know the facts,
won't you join me in the fight to
free a courageous youth from the
OminOus tyranny Of our prison
system?

Savings in Bonds

AN IDEA of the savings accumu-
lated by the American people
during the war years is gained
from the statement Of the Treas
ury Department showing that in
dividuals bought more than
$4,000, 100000 worth of war bonds
between May /, 1871 and Decem-
Der 81, 1915. Only 1881 per cent
have been redeemed.
These figures indicate that, de-
spite the fact that the war ended
nearly six months ago, the people
of this country retain close to
$4,000, 100000 worth of war
bonds. The possession Of the bonds
constitutes a tremendous potential
buying power, but, more important,
lis the fact that they represent a
a form of financial security to
millions of Americans.
While it may be necessary for
many citizens to sell bonds, in
order to meet financial obligations
and to plan wisely for the future,
the longer the bonds are held the
greater the interest received. In
addition, it is a nice feeling to
have some bonds in reserve to
meet any emergency that might
develop in the future.

Interesting Lawsuit

AN AMERICAN shipping com
pany is being sued for 100000
damages by the families of two
merchant seamen who allege that
the men were abandoned in Manila
during the Japanese attack of De-
cember, 1871.
This is an interesting legal prob
lem. The compliments allege
that the men were on shore leave
when the air raid started and that
the ship left. without them so that
consequently they were captured
by the Japanese and died on a
Japanese prison ship.
The company, as we understand
its defense, says that the ship
left Manila only after making
every possible effort to locate the
men and get them aboard and that
its leaving was in compliance with
orders issued by the Navy. 1t is
difficult to see how the plaintiffs
will be able to meet this defense.
