U.S.can Guide World,
Bishop Shehan Says
Al {. u. Red Mass

Our country can strongly influenc,
"the political and social thinking
of the world by demonstrating tn.
accomplishments of freedom with.
in great stable iuridical system,
the Most Rev. Lawrence j. Shehan
auxiliary bishop of Baltimore, ane
Washington, declared at the annua
Red Mass yesterday.
High Government officials, iurists
and members of the bar were among
the throng present at the celebra-
ton OF the Red Mass in the National
Shrine of the Immaculate Concep-
tion at Catholic University. The
Mass is observed yearly at the uni
versity with the resumption OF
Congress.
Among those present were Attor-
ney General Clark, Admiral Leahy,
Senator Mcmahon, Democrat, of
Rhode Island, and Senator McCar-
ran, Democrat, of Nevada. Signor
Alberto Tarchiani, Italian Ambas-
sador. was also among those at
the service. @ -
DR.. Hannah Celebrant.
Celebrant of the mass was the Rev.
DR.. Jerome D. Hannah, associate
professor of canon Law at Catholic
University. The Rev. John j. Caste
lot, S. S., was deacon, and the Rev.
Ralph v. shuhler, o. S. A, was sub
deacon.
Noting that "the nations of the
world are in the slow and painful
process of bringing into being an
international organization" Bishop
Shehan asserted 1T is the present
opportunity of our country to draw
the world in the direction of law and
freedom
The system of law under which a
nation lives expresses, as nothing
else can, the enlightenment of the
people and reveals the concept a
nation has formed of itself, the
prelate said.
We look to the law to preserve
"our single most sacred civic heri-
tage - the dignity. freedom and
equality of the individual" Bishop
Shehan continued. This is ''insep-
arably bound up with the family, -
which is the basic unit of society
and the foundation of our whole
social structure. Our national well
fare therefore depends upon the well
fare of the family"
Basic Law in Bible.
Pointing out that civir law "re-
tains its roots in the natural law"
expressed in the Ten Command
ments, Bishop Shehan urged that
we do not disregard this connection
nor the restrictions placed by the
Commandments on the law. Legal
chaos can only result if laws ARE
interpreted solely in the light of
present facts as seen by individual
authorities from the point of view
of newly arising political theory, "
he warned.
Voicing concern at modern trends
in the Interpretation of the law,
Bishop Shehan quoted Dean Roscoe
Pound, eminent law scholar OF
Harvard University Law School, as
declaring reason gives way to
force" when law is used as an in
strument of government and not as
a guide.

the Tel Aviv court building in three
taxis. They addressed the judge in
Hebrew and ordered him to ac-
company them. The courtroom was
partly filled but no case was in
progress.
Judge Windham, who is AZ, is heir
to the ancient Bowyer-Smith bar
onetcy. He is president of the Tel
Aviv court. He has been in colonial
service for Is years, II of which
have been spent in Palestine.
The second abduction came as
British troops and police clamped
midmorning curfew on two Jewish
sections of Jerusalem and launched
Ia house toulouse search OF the
areas in hunt for Mr.. Collins.
British authorities said the first
kidnapping also was apparently In
retaliation for the scheduled execu-
ltion.
One of the areas selected for the
search was the Schneider quarter
an all-Jewish residential section in
the northwest part of Jerusalem
about a mile from the residence
from which the kidnap victim
Mr.. Collins. was snatched shortly
after dark last evening.
Armored cars swept into the area
about $50 am. with loudspeakers
blaring warning to residents to
stay in their houses until further
notice.
Ancient Cemetery Searched.
A similar operation was launched
simultaneously in the Geula quar-
ter, a small, modern Jewish section
where, police said, the Jewish un-
derground held a kidnapped British
officer for a time last June.
Troops had spent most of the
night searching an ancient Moslem
cemetery, into the catacomb-like
mazes of which Mr.. Collins hao
been spirited by his abductors-

today and soon after Saturday
conference with Secretary of State
Marshall.
Seems to Reflect Truman Stand.
He presumably reflected the atti-
tude of the President and Gen.
Marshall. 1t was assumed that this
attitude also is shared by Mr.. Bra
den, which would indicate an end
to the Observation-Disclosures differ
ences.
When the United States is salts
fed with Argentine action in ex-
pelling the Axis agents who oper-
ated there during the war, the way
will be clear for holding the long
delayed inter-American conference
scheduled for Rio de Janeiro to
negotiate a hemisphere defense
treaty.
The United States, while main
tanning normally friendly relations
with the Peron government IN Ar
gentina in other respects, has re-
fused to sit down with Argentina
for the defense treaty negotiations
until President Peron fulf1lls COM
mitments to rid the country of
Axis influences.
Leaving for Buenos Aires.
Mr.. Messersmith discussed the
situation with reporters at the
White House after comforting with
Mr.. Truman for the second time in
10 days, He said he merely paid his
respects to the President before
leaving tonight to resume his duties
in Buenos Aires. He plans to go by
train to Miami and leave there by
plane Wednesday.
The Ambassador, who for months
has been urging friendlier attitude
toward the Peron government than
has been involved in the so-called
tough" policy laid down by Mr.
Braden, has been in Washington for
consultation since Christmas.
Indications that actions of the
Argentine government itself we're
smoothing out its differences with
Mr.. Braden came Saturday when
the State Department issued state
ment welcoming Argentina's elimi-
nation of German ownership in con-
troll of a number of business firms
as IAN important step" toward full
filling it's commitments.
Expulsion Is Only Issue.
Mr.. Messersmith said today that
expulsion of the Axis agents is the
only question remaining regarding
Argentine compliance with IT'S anti
Axis commitments.
He said that in the State Depart
ment's opinion, as he understands
it, Argentina already has taken
satisfactory action to eliminate Axis
control of schools and. institutions
and by it's action last week has
cleared up satisfactorily the question
of German economic influence.
His prediction that the matter
of adequate action in regard to
alien agents soon will be cleared
up satisfactorily by the Argentine
government was the most direct
word to come so far from American
officials involved. indicating an early
solution to the problem of relations
with Argentina.
Mr.. Messersnith has believed for
months that Argentine President
Peron was doing his best to comply
with his governments anti-Axis
commitments and has urged that a
friendlier attitude by this Govern
ment would bring even swifter CO.
operation.
Mr.. Braden had held that there
could be no relaxation of this Gov
ernment's refusal to negotiate the
proposed regional defense treaty
with Argentina until the Buenos
Aires government had actually COM
piled.
While Mr.. Messersmith's attitude
had been widely known, he had not
felt free before today to discuss the
issues publicly.

expressed doubt today, however,
that Mr.. Collins actually was hidden
in the cemetery.
"They probably lured us into the
cemetery while making their get
away in another direction" said
one officer.
Police quoted eyewitnesses as say
ing that Mr.. Collins-a director OF
a Jewish-owned bank in Palestine
apparently was chloroformed by
his armed abductors before they

BY ihe Assoeiot.d Pres.

Senator Aiken, Republican Of ver-
mont, has expressed doubt that the

dental election.
Appearing as guest on radio
program over VOL and the Mutual
network last night, Senator Aiken
said he had no personal choice for
the 1s48 COP. presidential NOM
inee, but regarded Gov. Dewey Of
New York and former Gov Stassen
of Minnesota as the ranking candi-
dates in New England. Then he
added:

Advised Against Delay.
Charles Seymour, curator of the
National Gallery of Art, said he
was very much In favor of estab-
lishing city cultural center in
Washington. He said there should
be no delay In starting such a
project.
There Is very much need for a
theater where any play can be
given to any audience he said.
He asked for the cooperation of
other cultural groups throughout
the city striving "for the same
movement"
Miss Ethyl Manning, director of
the Columbia Light Opera Company
suggested that instead of repairing
the Belasco, the money be applied
to construction of new theater
which would be available to all the
civic groups in the city.
Two new committees were formed
One will seek the membership of
other cultural groups or individuals
interested in the project, and the
second committee will formulate a
SPECIFIC program of activities.
The meeting was held In the
library of the parish hall of st.
Johns Episcopal Church.

F|nAL RIP !

llHL NI
 On Monday morning of this week George Bait igor wheeled his little wooden cart to the local post office, loaded in the "just arrived" news- papers and magazines and then pushed the little cart back to the store. For twenty years now ir. this particular trip was a little different from the others for londay marked the final for the "paper" cart.
 Now, since the Bal tazor store has changed hands, since lr. SBaitazor will soon be leaving Seldovia and since the Bonds, owners, will no longer handle newspapers and magazines the little cart has served the purpose for whic it was built and as it is with ali things which have fulfilled their purpose the little cart wibl no doubt be used rarely instead of regularly.
 To break habit that has been part of your life for twenty years is sometimes difficult and few of us do rithout at least a trace of regret. So it is with George Baltazor. Call it sentimenta1ity, loyalty or whatever you will, it is still understandable.
 This little cart has been familiar sight on the boardwalk for many year nov, and good num- another borrowed the Baltazor cart for various reasons. It served the family OBrien for moving purposes and for hauling firewood numerous occasions and when moving some object or heavy get Baltazor's cart". nr. Baltazor has been gen. erous in the loaning of his little cart and he has never asked for expected than a mere "thank you".
 The history of the little cart is in itself interesting for it began it's service in 1.-the old days", when Seldovia vas first growing into the town it is todav, and if little carts had the pow CT of speech I imagine this of Mr. Baltazors could tell quite a story.

The two Iron W1eelS were bought from the old herring saltry which op- perated many years ago ~across> the Bay,: and the. cart itself was made by one of the old timmers here, one Sam Cronners by name, -
 Time was when the little cart and others of it's kind were: the main mode of transportation here, as matter of fact you might say they were the only means of trans i:ortation.
 There were no gas- oline powered vehicles such as grace our board walk tddays But even with the advent of pow cred equipment the ~Balt- azor cart continues to do it's duty and maintain it's respect as a dependable conveyance.
