IN TRAFFIC JUDGE GEORGE
Il T. MURPHY'S court. where
the drunkometer was under at
tack, the judge pressed his clerk,
Stan Hancock, into service as
Exhibit A.
Stan was sent out at noon TO

At 2 he came TO the
witness stand beaming, blew
into the meter 1t registered
three drinks.

shots of liquor"
Where in Detroit can you
get one-ounee shots7"
Ii broke up the trial for a
little.
Experts say today's shot
glasses hold about three-fourths
of an ounce.
Anyway the jury found the
defendant guilty, and Stan had
a pleasant glow all afternoon.

Mrs. T.. 4. 1.
A-The French government
pays every American Serviceman
the sum Of SIS per month while
the American soldier remains on
French soil. The amount is over
and above the pay Servicemen
receive from the L. s. govern
ment. The French government
agreed 10 pay the SD per
month because of the artificial
exchange rate Of the French
franc
Q-Nhat block OF serial num-
berS are assigned 10 men enlist

cally fit for naval service at time

except that a man over 30 will
be eligible for enlistment in the
regular navy if his total previous
military or naval service or
active service in the naval re-
serve, deducted from his pres

Sour Notes From Paris

Out of the spate of dispatches
from the numerous representatives
of our press and radio detailed to
cover the Council of Foreign Min
listers now in session in the French
capital, one overriding theme is
becoming obvious. That is, a tone
of deepening disquiet and disap-
pointment at the way things are
going in the gilded conference
chamber in the Palais Luxembourg.
The main reason for this pessi-
nistic press Interpretation is a stiff
ening and obstructive attitude on
the part of Soviet Russia, in the
person of Mr.. Molotov, Foreign Min
lister of the Soviet Union. This was
first distinctly visible in his cool re-
ception of Secretary Byrnes' effort
to place his four-power alliance pro-
posal on the conferences agenda.
It became even clearer when Mr..
Molotov brusquely refused to con-
slider Mr.. Byrnes' suggestion regard
ing a settlement OF relations with
Austria, including simultaneous
excavations of all but small Allied
troop detachments and the matter
Evening star., 1946-05-03

Whatever democracy Is, or is not,
its goal is the perfection of the human
person, his opportunity, freedom, char
acter, security and personal and social
welfare. All forms of society can only
ultimately be judged by the kind of
persons they create, as upon them as
individuals and as types depends the
survival power of a civilization and
culture.
There are minimum physical condi-
tions necessary for democracy. These
suppose neither wealth nor luxury,
which are, in fact. likely to be degen-
erative of democracy. But physical
conditions can reduce human beings
to jungle types, in which case democ-
racy, cooperative form of society,
is quite impossible. All theories can
be broken down by adverse realities of
human existence.
Plaques and famine have often. in
the past, been decisive for the devel
opments of societies. They have, that
is to say, political effects Diseased
bodies produce diseased minds. The
fever of tuberculosis. for instance, proy
duces a tuberculotic type. usually
marked by periods of exaltation and
depreSsion-by extremes of feeling. The
secondary characteristics of venereal
diseases produce symptoms of extremism
sometimes associated with genius. Len
in is an example. He died of paresis
his brain in an almost complete state
of decomposition, and no one will ever
be able to ascertain to what extent his
politics, so full of genius and yet so
sinister, were influenced by his corro
sive illness.
A Greek physician has testified to
UNRRA that a great majority of
political extremists in Greece are
tubercular. He estimated that two
thirds of Greek Communists suffer
from the disease. Shakespeare made
Julius Caesar fear "the lean and hun
CRY look" of Cassius.
Historians attribute the fall of the
Roman Empire in part to the plague
in the third century and the collapse
of the medieval social order directly
to the black death of the 14th century.
Famine and diseases of famine breed
mobs and mobs find mob leaders. But
democracy is the antithesis of mob
rule. The appearance of the mob as
phenomenon of democracy marks not
the beginning, but the end, of democ-
racy. Mobs are creators of tyrants
The mob appears when the differences
between men and classes become, not
quantitative, but qualitative. Men with
three meals day, decent clothing and
adequate shelter are unlikely to COM
bine to assassinate those who have six
rooms and dozen suits to their one,
nor hate those who eat partridges,
