For the first time the complete
story Of the epochal cruise is told
by Morton Sontheimer in the Janu-
ary issue of Cosmopolitan maga-
zine.
Highlights of the cruise which
was star-studded with highlights
were the smuggling of three Iran
ian women into the United States
against the wishes of the crew; a
case of what might be called mu-
tiny; a fire at sea; careless and
rollicking trip through a mine
field; a nap by four crew members
in the royal bed of Egypt's King
Farouk; the temporary disappear
ance Of $4,000 of the ships funds
in Shanghai; prolonged battle be-
tween the ships captain and an in
toxicated Persian baboon; and sew
ersl international incidents con-
cerning larceny and the stabbing of
an Arab.

Since Pearl Harbor at least
100000 school teachers have left
their profession to engage in more
remunerative work, according to an
article by Gretta Palmer in the
January issue of Cosmopolitan
magazine.
"Texas alone is 5,400 teachers
short this year," the article states
in part. minnesota opened its
schools with 5000 fewer teachers
than it had six years ago and more
children to be taught. Nationally,
1000 schools have closed"
Surveys made by responsible ed
ucational organizations show that
one teacher out of eight at work
has been hired on an emergency
certificate, which disregards the
teachers lack of qualifications for
the job, as compared with one out
of 200 emergencies" six years ago.
These sub-standard teachers are
frequently unfit to teach even pri-
mary classes" according to DR..
Norton, who calls the lower forty
per cent of them "the marginal
workers of our society"
Inherent in the situation as it ex-
lists today is the real danger that
the teachers who remain at their
jobs may come to believe that COM
munism will provide the solution to
their troubles, according to the ar
ticle which points out definite
trend in that direction.

"Feeling that the American eco
nomic system is treating them bad

that communism is the solution Of
their problem. Spearhead of this
movement in the CI0 Teachers
Union, which was organized in New

Union claims to have tripled its

"School authorities say that only
an immediate raise in pay for
teachers everywhere will combat
this rising communist influence in
the classrooms. The present situa-
tion allows the leftist spokesman at

too many questions that are too
hard to answer. And it places the

weeks. Then his city editor received

A REAFFRMATION
OF LOYALTY
BY RUTH TAYLOR

On this Fourth of July, the one
hundred and seventy-first anniver-
sary Of the signing of the Decla-
ration of independence, 1t is fit
ting that we pause and take
stock of what this cornerstone of
our American way of life really
means. that we reaffirm our loyal
ty to those things in which we
believe.
The Declaration of Independent
ce was much more than procla-
nation emancipating the thirteen
colonies from the mother country
1t was the first statement of a
new philosophy of freedom, long
range program by which and
through which to establish a gov
eminent of the people, by the
people and for the people.
The Declaration of Independence
was the credo through adherence
to which we became the first
self constituted People not
bound together by race, by nation
al origin or by any one religious
belief but by an acceptance of
the practical ideal of the Father
hood of God and the Brotherhood
of Man which is the basis of all
monotheistic faiths, the corner
stone of freedom.
For the support of this Declara-
ton, with firm reliance on the
protection of Divine Providence,
we mutually pledge to each other
our Lives, our Fortunes, and our
Sacred Honour"
The first part of the Declare
ton of independence with its
glorious credo of Americanism is
well known to all of us but how
many of us remember that the
Declaration of Independence de-
mands services from us in return
for the right of life, liberty,
and the pursuit of happiness" ?
1t is the third part of the pledge
that is our greatest safeguard
of our liberties.
Doing what we should because
1t Is the right and honorable
thing to do is the basis of a
stable society. There is no sec
urity unless men and nations can
depend upon each others pledged
word.
Reliance on our sacred honor
has been the bulwark of our de-
Tense during all the trials through
which the nation has passed. The
pledge of not just our lives, or
our fortunes, but our sacred hon.
our as we'll that is what made
and will continue to make the
Declaration of Independence work.
The Declaration of independence
has given us more tina any other
country has ever possessed in the
way of freedom for all and
1t will only continue to do sc
If, with firm reliance on the
protection of Divine Providence
