however. He challenged the suicide
theory and publicly implied that the
Detective Bureau was covering up"
murder to hide its own ineffi-
cheney. The sensational charges pre-
cipitated an official turmoil that
was climaxed by a grand jury find-
ing that the girl had been murdered
by her husband and that Shelby and
Kelly had "bungled" the investiga-
ton. But the grand jury proceed
ings were invalidated when one of
its members was found to be in
eligible for jury service. The Fed
eral Bureau OF Investigation entered
the case and the evidence it pre-
sented to second grand jury
cleared the husband. Later the first
jury's criticisms of Shelby and Kelly
were ordered expunged by the court
Meanwhile the pair was tried before
a Police Trial Board and completely
exonerated, both being restored to
duty and commended.
Retired as assistant superintend-
ent in 1881 for physical disability,
Inspector Shelby nevertheless kept
in close touch with his old comrade
when the latter became superin-
tendent of police. The fact that the
retired inspector was in the act of
paying last tribute to his friend
when fatally stricken supplies an
appropriate footnote to the colorful
record of the Shelby-Kelly team.

The SheIby-KeIIy Team

Death has closed the books on the
Shelby-Kelly team, but for years to
come the achievements and the
vicissitudes of this pair of police
officers will be the subject OF con-
temptation and discussion in and
out OF the department which they
served SO long and so meritoriously.
1t seems more than a coincidence
that these two men should have
died within a few hours of each
other. AS matter of fact, the shock
of the sudden death of his old asso-
ciate and friend, Ed Kelly. may we'll
have contributed to the equally sud-
den death of the former assistant
superintendent of police. And there
can be no doubt that the strenuous,
tireless service of both officers had
contributed to the failing health
which had led to the retirement of
both.
Inspector William S. Shelby and
Colonel Edward Js,Kelly had parallel
careers in many respects. Both be-
gan police work as beat Founders
and were promoted through the
ranks until they held high admins
trative positions at headquarters.
Both were cited on numerous occa-
sions by their superiors for out
standing performance of duty. Both
demonstrated unusual investigative
abilities as precinct men, as detec-
tive sergeants and as heads of the
Detective Bureau. It was while both
were serving in the Detective Bu-
reau-Inspector Shelby as chief of
the bureau and Kelly as detective
lieutenant-that they suffered their
severest adversely and enjoyed their
greatest triumph.
The adversely followed in the wake
of the strangulation death of q
young housewife, Mrs. Virginia Nc
Pherson, in prominent apartment
house. Found with the cord of her
pajamas knotted tightly around her
throat, the woman was pronounced
a suicide by Inspector Shelby and
Lieutenant Kelly. A rookie police
man had different ideas about it,

Risto Ryti's Trial

Most Americans will find little to
be proud of in the announcement
that special peoples court" in
Finland has sentenced former Presi-
dent Risto Ryti to ten years i'm
prisonment at hard labor for lead
ing his country to war against Rus
sia in 1941.
The world cannot forget the fact
that Finland. when the Allied cause
was at low ebb, threw its weight
in the scales on the side of Nazi Ger
many. Presumably, the Firms were
gambling on the expectation that
Hitler's legions would crush Russia,
and that their own role in the war
could be limited to the recovery OF
the territory that they lost to the
Soviets in the fighting of 1939-40.
On that occasion, American opinion
was almost solidly on the side Of the
Firms. The Russian attack was
made without provocation, and as
the Soviet bombers smashed de-
fenseless Finnish cities the late
President Roosevelt spoke for vir-
tually all of us when he expressed
his profound shock" at the Russian
assault and condemned it as wan
ton disregard for law" 1t is fair to
say from this that the Firms had
substantial grievance when they
went to war against Russia in 1941.
But it is also fair to say that, when
the fate of a free world hung in the
balance, Finland elected. for what
ever reason, to fight at the side of
the aggreSSor nation which aSpired
to dominate the world by force of
arms. That is something that can
not be wiped off the slate merely
because the effort failed
Nevertheless, the accounts of
Ryti's trial do not make pleasant
reading. Two days before the SEN
tence was imposed. the speaker of
the Finnish Parliament told his
people they would face bad times"
If Russia and Britain" should be
.disp1eased by the verdict--H J.
2Procope, formerly Finlands Ambas-
sador here, land counsel for Ryti,
said that the possibility for defense
was limited" because he had not
been permitted to introduce certain
evidence, presumably offensive to
Russia, which he regarded as i'm
portant. And the present Finnish
Premier warned Finlands news
papers against comment on the trial
which might "jeopardize" Finland's
position.
1t is a fair inference that, in such
an atmosphere, there could have
been no such thing as a fair trial.
And it is virtual certainty that
the verdict of the peoples court"
was not representative of the judg-
ment of the Finnish people One
would feel better about this affair
If Ryti and his co-defendants had
been tried, without any pretense,
before military court of the victors.

Peron's Reply

mas issued q cOunCerDlaSC TO the
State Departments Blue Book with
its devastating exposure of Peron
and the authoritarian forces he
heads and typifies.
This counterblast takes the form
of Blue -and-White Book" The
choice of colors corresponds to those
of the Argentine national flag. The
fact that such document is issued
by one who is, at least technically,
a private individual, appears to arro-
gate to him the status of national
executive in advance of his election
to office.
Though intended as a general
denial of all charges made in the
American Blue Book, Peron's reply
concentrates upon the United States
Embassy in Buenos Aires as a nest
of espionage and foreign propaganda
during the incumbency of Ambas-
Sador Spruille Braden. This charge
is fortified by various photostatic
documents purporting to show that
our former Military Attache, Briga-
dier General John Lang, had pur-
chased confidential documents con-
corning Argentine Army dispositions
and other data from one Eugenio
Wittenberg, German naturalized
Argentine citizen employed as trans
lator in the Argentine War Office,
subsequently tried and convicted to
six years imprisonment for having
revealed military secrets to the
Military Attache of the United
States" For these alleged offenses.
Wittenberg is said to have received
from General Lang the munificent
sum OF one hundred Argentine pesos
the equivalent of twenty-five
American dollars.
Other specific charges include the
political activities of Gustave Moran.
special assistant to Ambassador
Braden. Moran is alleged to be a
Communist and instrumental in
creating the Democratic Union, a
political coalition hostile to Peron's
candidacy, and consisting of an
alliance between Radicals, Progress
siye Democrats, Socialists and Com
munists. This charge is, of course,
intended to discredit the opposition
to Peron in Argentine eyes on elec-
ton eve. 1t is thus a "roerback"
in old-time American political
jargon.
AS for the generalities in Peron's
book, they are typified by a state
ment in the preface saying that our
Blue Book is IAN election maneuver
intended to save the Argentine
oligarchy" and expressing surprise
that the United States Government
should feel concerned about democ-
racy in Argentina, now that "the
Argentine people again enjoy the
fullness of their sovereignty" The
preface likewise accuses Mr.. Braden
OF failing in his duty, of deceiving
his Government, of betraying the
good-neighbor policy, of intervening
in Argentine internal affairs, and of
trying to establish a puppet govern
ment in Argentina.
Presumably, this is the basis on
which Peron hopes to be elected to
the presidency of Argentina today.
Its effectiveness will be determined
by the results of the voting.

We frequently use the word "co-
incidence" and mean by it some group
Of events, or single event, without any
casual connection, and, as distin-
guished from that, we speak of events
in which we believe Divine guidance
Is revealed as Providence" The
people who stood by Jesus side had
two varying interpretations of an
experience: Some heard thunder,
others heard an angel. Our inter-
probation Of events and our appraisal
Of our natures and destinies is, like
wise, susceptible to two points of
view: Some slip into secularism and
see us mechanistically determined,
others maintain there is destiny
that shapes our ends"-a destiny we
call Providence or God.
In recent years have had the
privilege of spending a number of
summer week ends in the home of a
doctor cousin in Chicago. He him.
self Is leader in his medical field,
heading one of the clinics in the
University of Chicago Hospital. In
addition, always feel in the pres
ence of = great tradition while in
that home, because his wife is the
daughter of the late Dr. Howard
Taylor Ricketts,. 1t was young DR..
Ricketts, who, 40 years ago, took q
group of other young scientists with
him out into the Rocky Mountains
of Montana to seek the source of
Rocky Mountain spotted fever. They
found it was caused by the woodtick.
Later, hoping that the same prin-
ciple might be proven in typhus
namely, that it, too, was caused by
some bug), he went to Mexico to study
the disease there and did, indeed,
establish that typhus was carried and
caused by the body louise. Following
upon all those marvellous discoveries,
DR.. Ricketts, was asked to be the head
OF the medical school of the University
of Pittsburgh. Before going, however,
he returned to Mexico City to COM
plete his paper work on the typhus
study, contracted the disease and
died. There is q modest laboratory
on the campus of the University of
Chicago commemorating the service
and discoveries of this young martyr
to his own science. And for me, per-
sonally, it is always a great thrill
to spend time in his daughters home
