German Art Treasures
Cincinnati Enquirer


 Lootng is as old as war and in Europe at least every war is accompanied by the seizure of art treasures, along with other loot The Spanish gal leries have magnificent collections of Flemish, Italian and French paintings for the simple that the high point of Spains political and military power coincded with great productive period in European painting.
 The Nazis made 8 particularly large and ruthless business of radng the art galleries of the countries they conquered Their seizures are counted by the trainload And various Nazi officials and German army officers now being tried for shipping back 10 Germany art treasures from numerous victim countries.
 Against this background, the transportation to Washinton of 200 great masterpieces from German galleries has bad flavor It is true that the paint ings in Washington ony for protective custody to use a term the Germans would readily under stand It also is true that the President of the United States has made a clear commitment to return the paintings.
 Nevertheless, the impression made in Europe is a bad one And the necessity for the transfer has yet to be satisfactorily explained. The bad impression is made worse because the Library of Congress has had dts agents burrowig in the castles and museums and libraries of Italy, the heels of the armies, to buy such items wouc round out it's collections.
 Of 35 socialists in art wno assembled the paint ings for removal to the United States 32 have pro- tested in writing at being obliged, in their military status. to do something they considered immoral and unnecessary.
 The paintings are here and the damage is done. But long they in the United States, there is further temptation to turn borrowing into footing Somebody n Congress, in fit of chauvinism, almost certainly will introduce bill to make the German art treasure a down payment separations account
 We shall be sufficiently hated in Europe at best when the is fully liquidaed This, matter how many thousands of tons of food may ship across the Atlantic, and matter how justly try to carry out our responsibilities in occupied areas. There is need to augment suspicion (the paintings were not taken from the American occupied by keeping them long. The sooner they returned to Germany the less American prestige will suffer for the mistake made by the U. S Army upon direction from the highest national authority"

HEART AND HOME

! HEART AND HOME
 This should be fortunate day for undertaking long postponed pro- iects in the home, such as changes in the family's daily program, phy- sical alterations in the house, new methods Of performing old duties, cleaning out cluttered attics. The stars warn that women will be dis posed to overtax their strength, which may be avoided by leaving heavy lifting to stronger backs. BUSINESS AFFAIRS Freight-rate litigation intended to attract northern industry to the South will soon result in an or ganized counteraction in other parts of the country Defendant rail- roads in these actions will have the moral backing of industrialists north of Mason and Dixon's line.
 NATIONAL ISSUES
 Revolutionary changes in the na- tion's educational systems are indi- cated The Army's success with certain intensive educational activ- ities during the war and the over crowding of colleges in consequence of privileges provided in the G. I. Bill of Rights will be major in- fluences. Some institutions of high CT learning will set up branches in widely separated areas to absorb the overflow of students.
 INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
 Women of America will play an important role in the program to help the women of Japan under stand and benefit by their recently acquired freedom from a social sys- tenn which denied their sex every opportunity save that of bearing children.
 Persons born on this date are promised by the stars. A year of tremendous energy, wealth of ideas and at least one outstanding success in a secondary activity.
 Children born on this day will be both mentally and physically equal to the challenges of their en- vironment. They should be eager students, display a degree of bril- hance in some lines and enjoy an early success in their principal cc- cupation.
