RIGHTS IMPLY
RESPONSIBILITIES
BY RUTH TAYLOR

The Bill of Rights is a favorite
topic with all American speakers
- no matter what their view
point or their politics. 1t is the
one surefire hit.
We all believe in the principles
embodied in the Bill of Rights.
We proclaim it as the foundation
stone of our democracy. We brag
of its insurance of our liberties
as We wave the flog. We flaunt
its great phrases in the faces of
our enemies.
But - do we live up to the
ideal it embodies? Do We carry
out in our national, in our COM
munity, in our personal life its
great teachings?
We emphasize the equality be-
fore the law for which it stands.
We say we oppose discrimination
- that this is the abhorrent idea
of the so-called master race.
But - are We free from the faint
of discrimination? How do we
judge our neighbors? Bigotry and
intolerance can be allowed no
place in our own lives, if we
would be true to our own herit.
age and destiny.
The people have, through the
Bill of Rights, the inalienable
right to the furthering by the
State of equality of opportunity.
Blu they have it not merely as
State-given right, but as a
God-giyen one. Freedom from dis
elimination is a spiritual as well
as a material condition for human
development.
This does not mean that all
people must have equal amounts
of everything but it does mean
that they must have an equal
opportunity to develop their tai
ents, to do profitable and worth
while work - without being ham
pered by discrimination based
upon anything other than their
ability and their willingness to
work with their fellow-men.
The only way We can defend
our liberties is to see to it that
the law is administered impair
TALLY and equally to all the peo-
pie of the country. The pledge
to our flag makes this clear.
Il pledge allegiance to the flag
of the United States of America
and to the Republic for which it
stands, one nation indivisible, with
liberty and justice for all"
The last two words - for all"
- are the essence of the Bill
OF Rights - but before we brag
too much about them, let us do
a little soul-searching and see
if we live up to them in our own
lives. Rights imply responsible
tiles.

situations which must be correc-
ted; and there are many gains
which must be protected and al
lowed to bear much more good
fruit.
1t is not enough that we as
Americans believe in Democracy
and the protection of peoples of
all races. creed3 and National or
igins, - we must feel that safe
guards and provisions should be
written into law IN view of Am
erica'c responsibilities in world
relationships, those same respons-
Utilities nut be clearly consider
ed at home.
So, my friends, the loss of our
contest at the polls cannot mean
defeat for our cause; because
regardless of how hard men may
try, we cannot go backward to the
social and economic structure of
yesterday. We must go forward
to a more equitable distribution
of the opportunities and wealth of
America, - to full citizenship for
all. Even to attempt to go back
ward would be a betrayal of those
values so inherent in the political
and economic history of America.
We have very difficult job
ahead. Let us pull together for
a greater state, and a greater
America. Thanks a lot!
Your friend,

Defend ALL
OR LOSE ALL

In new book entitled "Collec-
tivism Challenges Christianity -
published by the Light and Life
Press of Winona Lake, Indiana,
Verne Paul Kaub says: There
can be no political liberty with
out economic liberty - and nei-
Their can exist except through rel
igious freedom which has its high
est expression in Christianity.
Destroy one - the others are
imperiled.
Foster all, and all grow and
prosper, grow toward larger free
dom, larger liberty, more near
ly perfect social system"
This idea of the indivisibility
OF all liberties is thoroughly sup
ported by the lessons of world
history. We have certainly had
abundant proof of it in the late,
tragic years. The technique of
the dictator states has always
been the same. First, political
liberty is abrogated. Then econ
omic liberty is destroyed. Finally
and inevitably, the state moves
in on the church, and the final
and most basic liberty dies. And
only war or revolution can bring
these liberties back.
The principle is simple - there
can be no halfway freedom. We
will defend all freedoms or
We will lose them all.

Service Records Aid
Candidates, but Power
0fCI0IsHeId Doubtful
lYtha Af.oeiotsd Pra,s

Capital politicians decided today
that Tuesdays primaries demon
strated the handy. vote-getting value
a service discharge button has for
electioneering candidates.
But most Of them professed in
ability to guage from the primary
results how valuable an Endorsement
of the CLOS Political Action Com
mittee is going to be at the polls
this year.
They had puzzler in the Ala
bama campaign where James E..
(Big Jim) Folsom, war veteran sup
ported by the CIO-PAC, led 1t. Gov.
Handy Ellis into a June 4 runoff
for the Democratic gubernatorial
nomination-equivalent to election.
Many politicians appeared to be-
lieve that Mr.. Folsom's lead in a
flve-man field could be attributed
to his war service, rather than sup
port of the CIO which is just be-
ginning a campaign to organize
Southern workers.
Veterans Boost Total.
They noted that veterans, who
were permitted to vote without pay
ing poll taxes, boosted the ballot
total.
AS further evidence of this trend,
they cited the lead taken by Laurie
c. Battle, a former serviceman and
political tyro, over the CLOS friend
Representative Patrick, Democrat, of
race, Representative Rains, Demo-
crat, of Alabama, had CIO backing
and led former Representative Joe
Starnes.
The CIO-PAC didn't do so well in
Ohio, where Senator James w. Huff
man won the Democratic renomina-
ton over two opponents. One Of
these was Marvin G. Harrison. an
attorney with CIO-PAC backing,
who ran third.
Mr.. Huffman had the support Of
most of the railroad brotherhoods,
which some Ohio politicians said
probably was worth more to him
then any CIO approval. Indica-
tions were, however, that Senator
Huffman will get the CLOS backing
when he opposes former Gov. John
w. Bricker, the Republican sena-
torial nominee, in the November
election.
PAC to Fight Dewey.
Meanwhile at Atlantic City Sid
ney Hillman, chairman of the CIO-
PAC, indicated the PAC would en-
deavor to oust New York Gov.
Thomas E. Dewey and "reactionary"
members of Congress from polit-
ical life.
Mr.. Hillman, expressing pleasure
at the defeat of Representative Can
non, Democrat, of Florida, and for
mer Representative Starnes in the
Tuesday primaries, told the conven-
tion of his Amalgamated Clothing
Workers: Were going to- have
something to say about Dewey, you
can be sure"
The clothing workers, termed by
a union spokesman as the "key per-
sonnel" in PAC's activities, were
expected to approve a resolution
calling for mobilization of the
membership of the Amalgamated
for the election campaign of 1886"
"PAC is not alone carrying this
fight against reactionaries," Mr..
Hillman said. I'VE have Joined

pies will" -----.--- - .-----..

AT 70, Wins Penwomen's Prize

Thumbing through the family
album, Mrs. Josie Subers Harrell,
1929 Columbia road NV, noticed
a photograph of her two daughters
when they were small. She thought
it would look lovely in oils.
Mrs. Harrell recalled that in her
youth she had painted water colors
and tapestry. Once she had reared
her family. she again had plenty
OF leisure. So Mrs. Harrell bought
some oils and began to paint.
From her window in the Argonne
Apartments, she saw and painted
the spires OF the Washington Chapel
of the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter Day Saints and All Souls
Church. That was how, at the age
