our scene now returns to the
" exterior of the Castle, or Pre-
septory, of Templestowe, about
the hour when the bloody die
was to be cast for the life or
death of Rebecca. 1t was a scene
of hustle and life, as if the whole
vicinity had poured forth its in
habitants to a village wake, or
rural feast.
On the present occasion, a
throne was erected for the Grand
Master at the east end, surround
ed with seats of distinction for
the Preceptors and Knights of the
Order. Over these floated the sa-
cred standard, called LIE Beau
seant. which was the ensign, as
its name was the battle-cry, OF
the Templars.
At the opposite end of the lists
was a pile of faggotS, so arranged
around a stake, deeply fixed in
the ground, as to leave a space
for the victim whom they were
destined TO consume, to enter
within the fatal circle, in order
to be chained to the stake by the
letters which hung ready for that
purpose. Beside this deadly ap-
paratus stood four black slaves
whose colour and African fea-
lures, then so little known in Eng
land, appalled, the multitude, who
gazed on them as on demons
employed about their own dia-
bolical exercises.
At length the drawbridge fell
the gates opened, and knight
bearing the great standard of the
order, sailed from the castle, pre-
ceded by six trumpets, and fol-
lowed by the Knights Preceptors
two and two, the Grand Master
coming last, mounted on stately
horse, whose furniture was of the
simplest kind. Behind him came
Brian de Bois-Guilbert, armed
cap-a-pie in bright armour, but
without his lance, shield, anc
sword, which were borne by his
two esquires behind him. Hi:
face, though partly hidden by {
long plume which f1oated dowr
from his barret-cap, bore strong
and mingled expression of pas

sion, in which pride seemed to
contend with irresolution. He
looked CHASTITY pale, as if he had
not slept for several nights, yet
refined his paving warehouse with
the habitual ease and grace prop
er to the best lance of the Order
of the Temple. His general ap-
pearance was grand and COM
handing; but, looking at him
with attention, men read that in
his dark features from which
they willingly withdrew their
eyes. n
After these came a guard of
warders on foot, amidst whose
partiSans might be seen the pale
form of the accused, moving with
a slow but undismayed step to-
wards the scene of her fate.
The unfortunate Rebecca was
conducted to the black chair
placed near the pile. On her first
glance at the terrible spot where
preparations were making for a
death alike dismaying to the mind
and painful to the body, she was
observed to shudder and shut her
eyes, praying internally doubt
less, for her lips moved though
no speech was heard. In the space
of a minute she opened her eyes,
looked fixedly on the pile as if
to familiarise her mind with the
object, and then slowly and nat
urally turned away her head.
THE Grand Master commanded
L the herald to stand forth and
do his devoir. The trumpets then
f1ourished, and herald, stepping
forward, proclaimed aloud, -
fOyez, Oyer, oyez.-Here standeth
the good knight, Sir Brian de
Bois- Guilbert, ready to do battle
with any knight of free blood
who will sustain the quarrel al
lowed and allotted to the.Jewess
Rebecca, to try by champion, in
respect of lawful esSoine of her
own body; and to such champion
the reverend and Victorious Grand
Master here present allows fair
field, and equal partition of sur
and wind, and whatever else ap-
pertains to fair combat, The
trumpets again sounded, and there
was dead pause of many min

On The Scene Tn Washington By MIRIAM KOLKIN

THE SENATE DUCKS AGAIN

AAA 0A1NkA A OOO1AO AOf14lN
 Visitors in the Senate gallery dur ing debate on the Case Bill have been hearing far more than the quota of plain, hOmely truths usually spoken on Capitol Hill. For while the Senate has been straining at the leash, eager to bounce on labor while the anti-Lewis campaign is hot, small but tireless crew of true representatives of the people have held the foOr-setting the record straight.
 It's been mighty irritating, especial ly to folks like Senator John Bank head, venerable Alabama polltaxer. The aging senator has been known to get over-lengthily eloquent when such unpleasant topics as polltax repeal are up for action, but that didn't stop him from pinning the charge of flibuster- ing on Senator Claude Pepper O., Fla.), leader of the pro-labor group.
The union times., 1946-05-25

It's also revealing that Majority Leader Alben Bark1ey O., Ky.) has been silent throughout the debate on the Case Bill. On the few occasions he has spoken up it was to suggest that Pepper was flibustering, and it was Barkley who granted the anti labor crowd a recess in which to caucus.

Of sovereign states alone world
order cannot be formed. Though
that was not the intention, nor was
its significance appreciated when
it happened, what was in fact
blocked by the rule of unanimity
was the effort to advance along a
way that did not and could not take
the United Nations into world
order of law
But simultaneously, though sep
arately, they were moved to open
up the way that can lead to world
order. The impelling cause here
was in the first instance their at
tempts by warnings and threats to
stop the massacres and atrocities
that were an integral part, not
merely incidents, Of the Nazi doc
trine and practical conduct OF war.
These warnings were not needed.
Then the impelling motive OF the
Allies became tae need to inflict
retribution upon and to exact some
rough measure of justice from those
who were most clearly responsible
for the monstrous evils of the war.
The Allies united in applying the
principle that not the anonymous
collective entity of the state but the
responsible officials of the state
NAV be held personally account
able for the violations of treaties,
of the convention of war, and of
the covenants of international law.
With the Nuremberg trial itself,
which is not concluded as these
lines are written, we are not con-
cerned. Our conclusions are unaf-
fected by the questions that nave
still to be determined, whether any
or all of the defendants are justly
and legally guilty on all the counts
in the indictment. They could all
be innocent, or they could plead
successfully that the law under
which they are being prosecuted is
Tin their case ex post facto. None the
less this would be the law of the
United Nations henceforth unless
we intend to deny the authority of
law to what they have all declared,
sealed, signed and ratified, and
repeatedly affirmed, by the official
action of their lawful governments.
Nor can it be said that this prin-
ciole of personal liability is new
doctrine and alien to the conscience
of civilized men. I believe it could
be shown that it is the traditional
and orthodox doctrine and that the
theory Of the absolute sovereign
state that is subject to no higher
lIlaw, and is itself the source of the
4 highest law of it's people, is an aber-
\ ration and heresy, which has flour
ished, though even then never
without protest, during the closing
decades of the nineteenth and the
opening decades of the twentieth
century.

OAKDALE CEMETERY

OAhDALE CEML En-
Oakda1e cemetery is a place of
indescrib beauty at this sea-
son of the year. From the great
old oaks to the tiny Towering
pansy plants. Spring is everywhere.
Amidst the quiet stiffness of death,
Nature is working another of her
mira cles-the stately oaks, stand
ing guard like sentinels of time,
have shed their last years dress
of faded brown leaves and are
donning their new coats of bright
green while the grey moss, swing
ing from their branches in the
April breeze, seems to be in a
frolicksome mood; the magnolias
are also speaking of their new
life; purple and white wisteria has
entwined its long arms around
many trees and fills the air with
delicate perfume; the dogwood
with millions of white blooms pre-
sent picture of breathtaking
beauty, azalea, bulb flowers of
every hue, and hundreds Of other
small Towering plants are lovely
in the green grass. The birds too
are joyous in their praises to
spring.
Oakdale is lovely and has become
so through the years by those
hands that have worked, nurtured,
and coaxed to grow plants and
flowers as tributes and living
memorials to their loved ones who
rest there.
Visitors are invited to enjoy the
beauty of the cemetery. There are,
however, some visitors that think
liberty and pursuit of happiness
means trespassing and taking that
which rightfully belongs to an
other. The dainty lady with the
high heeled slippers was not well
come, when in her love for beau
ty she trespassed on the private
property of another and uprooted
azalea plants and rose bushes,
plants that had been cared for to
the sacred memory of a loved
one, and carried them away. The
flowers that graced the party ia
BILE were taken from grandfather's
lot. Which grandfather? There are
many grandfather lots in Oak
dale. There was lockwood that was
nurtured for twenty odd years
and finally planted on the sacred
plot, the family cemetery lot, and
a visitor admiring the results OF
anothers time and patience in
growing these priced plants. wan
tonly pulled them up and carried
them away. There are many, many
accounts of such acts of dissertation
committed by interruptions people
who roam around, and. like the
"thief in the night, take that
which belongs to another.
Yes, visitors are welcome to Oak
dale but remember a cemetary is
sacred place and Oakdale is
dedicated to the sacred memo
ries of loved ones-Let it be kept
ever thus.
