Lidice EpiIoque

The hanging of Karl Hermann
Frank is a fitting epilogue to the
unforgettably shocking story of
Lidice, the little Czech village whose
name will live on in history as a
deathleSs reminder of the vast evil
that was Naziism. What happened
there three years ago had small
dimensions in relation to the whole
nightmare picture of terror under
Hitler, but it was so complete and
atrocious in itself that it served
better than any other single Incl
dent up to that time to bare the
black soul of the Third Reich. The
crime was done in retaliation for
the assassination of Reinhard
Heydrich, the Fuehrer's chief hang
man. Methodically, ld-bloodedly,
with savage precision, under the di-
rection of Frank, who was then the
German protector" of the coun-
try, the destroyers came in and lit
eralN erased the place, killing
every man, deporting every woman,
shattering the family life of every
child, and leaving not house or
building standing. Franks punish
ment cannot undo this terrible
thing, but it at least symbolizes
that retributive justice which the
civilized world must have if it is
to remain civilized. There is only
level ground now where Lidice once
stood, yet there is common grave
there of the murdered innocent,

not a little sex with such forceful-
ness that his experiment caught on
and continued to thrive until it
became the most widely read daily
and Sunday paper in America.
Gradually the pages of the News
became less and less sensational, the
"leg art" diminished, solid reports
still simply and attractively worded
appeared in quantity and the
editorial page became famous. This
page was his greatest interest. Here,
day after day, his ideas-many of
them eccentric, but all interesting
were spread before vast public. He
was for the New Deal and President
Roosevelt until the war clouds
gathered, and after that perhaps no
man in America hit harder at both.
He took the isolationist line, and no
matter how unfair he seemed at
times, no matter how deeply he
offended those who thought differ
emily, he was undeniably effective.
For all his inconsistency and un-
predictability, Captain Patterson
had his own standards. That he
was powerful personality, that he
did not have little mind, is clear
from his influence on American
Journalism. There is good ground
for disagreeing violently with some
of the views he so violently ex-
pressed, but there can be no doubt
that the paper he founded reflected
his unique genius.
Evening star., 1946-05-28
Cuptoin Patterson

Long before founding the phe-
nomenally successful New York
Daily News, Joseph Medill Patterson
had established himself as strong
personality who did not live in awe
of the conventions and who prac-
ticed the maxim that consistency
is the hobgoblin of little minds.
Born into a family distinguished in
the history of American journalism,
it was perhaps inevitable. that he
became journalist himself. AS
young man on the Chicago Tribune,
he quickly demonstrated his out
standing equipment in the field, and
showed himself to be full of almost
boundless energy and far-ranging
mental activity.
Coming from a wealthy and con-
servative background, he early
espoused the cause of the underdog,
aligning himself for time with the
Socialists. A man of many facets,
he went through literary period
from 1907 to 1914 during which he
wrote two novels and three plays
of more than average competence.
Then, when America entered the
First World War, he was in the
thick Of the battle, emerging at the
end with the rank of captain and
record good enough to make any
soldier proud. BY this time, he
wanted something to do besides help
edit the Chicago Tribune, and so he
launched what proved to be a mile
stone in the fabulous story of news
paper publishing.
The New York News started out
pretty dismally in 1919; it was given
away free for awhile at subway and
elevated stations, and few thought
it could live long. But it lived. With
his peculiar genius for simple and
effective language and his genuine
understanding of ordinary people,
Captain Patterson used pictures and

The Political Mill
By Gould Lincoln

forbidden to contribute to such political
campaigns. The PAC this year is pro-
posing to spend up to 5000, 900 in the
congressional elections-twice the sum
permitted the national committees of
the major political parties in a presi-
Dental election.
The PAC is seeking to enter primary
elections in big way. Indeed, it is in
such elections. where candidates are
nominated, and where, in number of
States, delegates to the Republican and
Democratic National Conventions for the
nomination of President and Vice Presi-
dent are selected, that labor unions,
acting through the PAC or directly, can
be most effective. If they are permitted
to spend millions of dollars in primary
elections the Federal Corrupt Practices
Act is virtually tossed out of the win
dow. Certainly an amendment to this
act, covering primary election cam
paigns, is needed.
President Trumans recommendations
for emergency labor legislation are JUS
titled, since they apply only when the
strike or work stoppage is directed
against the Government of the United
States. The sanctions proposed to be
used against labor unions in such strikes
are to be used only when the President
finds that the safety of the Nation and
the integrity of the Government are
endangered.
Representative Martin, House minor
ity leader, took the right and courageous
stand when he announced in the House
he and the Republican party had stood
by the President in war and that they
proposed to stand by the President in
the present emergency. It was in direct
contrast to the position of Harold E.
Stassen, former Governor of Minnesota,
a candidate for the Republican presi-
Dental nomination in 1948, who hurried
q telegram to the Senate Interstate
Commerce Committee asking to be
heard against the emergency labor bill,
and to the position OF some Republican
Senators.
President Truman, it is expected,
soon will have an opportunity to ap-
prove or veto the so-called Case bill.
which seeks to amend the permanent
labor laws in ways that have been need
ed for long time. These amendments
are denounced as vigorously by labor
union leaders and by labor members of
Congress as is the emergency bill. 1t is
the first time since the enactment of
the. Wagner Labor Relations Act that
the Senate has permitted such legisla-
tion to pass. Mr.. Truman can do real
service by permitting the bill to become
law. If he vetoes the measure, his ac-
ton will be regarded as an effort to
appease organized labor.
Evening star., 1946-05-28

President Truman took steps Friday
and Saturday Of last week, in the face
OF desperate crisis arising out of the
railroad strike, which should endear
him to the people OF the United States.
The immediate reaction on the part of
labor unions and their leaders, bloated
with power and money, and on the part
OF politically minded Republicans and
Democrats who saw an opportunity to
cotton" to the labor vote, was to hurl
vituperative verbal attacks against the
President of the United States.
Mr.. Truman must have realized, when
he delivered his criticism of A. F. Whit
ney, president OF the trainmen's brother
hood, and Of Alvanley Johnston, presi-
dent of the engineers brotherhood, and
effectively broke the strike of the rail-
road workers, there would be brickbats
hurled at him by labor leaders. 1t has
been many 4 year since a Chief Execu-
tive of the United States turned the full
moral authority of his oflce against i'm
portant labor leaders and unions. 1t
for any man in political ONCE, in a day
country are seeking more and more to
dominate politics.
Mr.. Whitney's threat to spend the
$47, 900, 900 in the treasury of the train
mems brotherhood in an effort to de-
feat Mr.. Truman for reelection, and his
assertion that the Board of Directors
of the brotherhood had already author
lied him to spend $2,500,000 to defeat
those members of Congress who sup
ported the Presidents emergency labor
bill, is clear demonstration that it is
time for Congress and the President to
put a check on these huge expenditures
by labor unions in political campaigns.
There Is no more reason why a labor
union should be permitted to buy an
election than an election should be
bought by a corporation or any other in
terest. Through amendments to the
Federal Corrupt Practices Act in recent
years Congress has sought to call halt
to huge expenditures of money in po-
litical campaigns.
In the Smith Connally Act the House
wrote a prohibition against any con-
tribution by any labor union in connec-
ton with the election of presidential
and vice presidential electors and of
Senators and Representatives. The CLOS
PAC maintained that the law did not
apply in primary elections, and any way,
the contributions were made by indi-
vidual members of labor unions. The
then New Deal Attorney General Biddle
upheld the PAC. What the Smith
Connally Act sought to do was to place
labor unions, with their large funds, in
the same class with banks and corpora
tions which have been for a long time

Love and Kisses"

The "love and kisses" radio mes
sages to which members of the
House and Senate are looking for
ward will not be billets doux from
ardent admirers. They will be far
different from heart-warming greet
ings calculated to quicken the pulse
and start the legislators humming
romantic ballads, according to an
Associated Press dispatch from
Tokyo.
For "love and kisses" is CT cable
code standing for: Believe emphat-
ically draft must be extended to
assure successful occupation and
consolidate victories gained in fight
ing war, at same tipe equalizing
burden of occupation by providing
adequate requirements for men who

this into the three-word code mes
sage, the boys with MacArthur-or
at least some of them-hope to give
vent to their feelings at the moder-
ate cost per radiogram of go cents
Senate and House leaders have been
notified of the codes meaning by a
sergeant and a technician, who
spent a total of $4120 to explain
the idea by radiogram.
Viewed in the light of the expla-
nation, the "love and kisses" code
might be interpreted, in shorter and
triter language: II, CT in Japan,

Power Still Rules
By George FieIdins Eliot

In the international poker game, the
blue chips are still the chips that repre-
sent available fighting power.
This may be deplorable. in an era
when all men are thinking of a durable
and just peace. But it is still true, and
it will continue to be true until security
of life and liberty can be trusted to
reliable system of law which can be
enforced by courts of justice. This has
been the history of every community.
1t will be the history of the world
community.
The proof of this present fact is to be
seen in the daily headlines. Which are
the nations that really count, that really
influence the course of world affairs?
Just three-the great military powers:
The United States, Great Britain and
the Soviet Union.
1t is their available fighting power
that gives them their preponderant in
f1uence Do you doubt that? Then
what else counts?
Population? No. for in that case
China and India would stand first
among the influential states of the world.
and quite obviously they do not. Brazil
would be equal in influence to Great
Britain, and so would Italy, and quite
obviously this is not so.
Expanse of territory? No, for China,
Canada, Australia, Brazil would all, on
that basis, stand level with the United
States in influence, and it is perfectly
plain that this is not so either.
Wealth? Natural resources? These
are relative terms. Great Britain has
little in the way of natural resources
except coal, and Is certainly in no very
strong financial position. Japan, with
virtually no natural resources at all,
was the dominant power in East Asia
for 40 years on the basis of ready fight
ing power The natural resources of
the United States were as great so years
ago as they are now, and our financial
position infinitely better, but will any
one claim that we had anything like
the influence on world affairs in 1893
which we now possess? Why the differ
ence? The worlds greatest Navy and
the worlds greatest Air Force, plus the
atomic bomb. That's the difference.
Ready fighting power. The biggest pile
of blue chips on the International table.
The world began to notice us in 1898,
when we smashed the naval and colonial
power Of Spain despite the learned
assurances OF virtually every military
writer in Europe that we would be de-
feated. But our real influence in world
affairs began during the administrations
Of Theodore Roosevelt. Why? Because
