People do not understand him, and his
%neighborS resent his refusal to accept the
responsibility of citizenship. In rural areas
any community needs the best efforts Of
all the people in the district to make a real
go of things, and the Hutterite hangs back
In time of war he is an active pacifist. The
attitude of the Hutterite is clearly outlined
in the following extract from John Horsch's
translation of Riedmann's "Rechenschaft
1528-19319:
since vengeance is of God and not
of us, it should be left to Him and not be
practiced by us. For since we are followers
OF Christ, we must also manifest the spirit
of Him who, although He could lave done
1t, did not return evil for evil ~
The Hutterite has been accused of
not paying his taxes. This is NOT true.
but he certainly will not pay any tax
which helps TO support 4 war. nor will
he buy Liberty bonds.
His attitude is again outlined clearly iu
John Horsch's translation which reads in
part as follows j. we willingly pay taxes
and customs, or however it may be termed,
for we have learned this from our Master,
Christ, who not only paid it himself but
commanded others to do so, saying, Render
therefore unto Caesar the things that are
Caesars and unto God the things that are
Gods But for warfare, destruction of
life and the shedding of blood when taxes
are asked for such particular ~purposes) we

However, members of the colony have
been known to stray away. When they go
they take nothing with them, but if they
see the error of their ways and return, they
will be welcomed like the Prodigal Son.
The Hutterite is honest. hardworking
and clean. His farms are well run and
his fields are free from weeds. He
uses the best machinery he can buy
and seeks earnestly for knowledge
concerning the best farming practice.
The colony is well and efficiently organ
lied. Once a year the colony meets and
elects a "Head Man" usually called the
Boss" who acts as general manager. Then
a foreman is chosen for each major activity
of the colony. There is a supervisor in
charge of the garden, the bees, the dairy,
the machine shop and blacksmith shop, the
field work and so on.
He is convinced that he is less wicked
than the "movie-going, jazz-hummings
fashion-minded, irreligious, drinking, smok-
ing, dancing and gambling citizen of the

world" but he is perfectly aware of the ap-
peal of the world and certainly avoids
temptation. There are no pictures on the
walls of a Hutterite room, no musical in
strument or a radio in the home. Movies
are theoretically taboo, though they GER
tainly do not walk out on educational
movies.
Resemble Religious Order
A timetable for the men in the fields,
the women in the garden and the
ity kitchen is worked out with typical
German ~thoroughness. Any complaints re-
ceive immediate hearing and prompt adj
justments are made when necessary. In
many ways the Hutterite colony resembles
a strict religious order which does noe
practice celibacy.
It is his attempt to live apart from the
world that gets the Hutterite into trouble.

cheers for them.
In fighting mood President
Truman dashed out at the Re
publicans whom he said prom
ised the things which they
failed to do in the last Con-
gress. He mentioned that the
laws passed by them were not
worth the paper they were
written on, pointing out that
they rejected almost every
piece of legislation that he has
recommended despite the fact
they are now promising the
same things. The people, he
said, will not be fooled. They
could have halted rising prices
enacted a housing program or
civil rights legislation, he said.
The displaced persons legisla-
ton is anti-catholic and anti
semitic, he claimed.
To Call Special Session
President Truman has made
it known that he will call a
special session of the Congress
to convene on July 26. He
said that the Congress can
finish its work in fifteen days
and 60 home in time for cam
paigning. He predicted that
Republicans would dodge
responsibilities, and
among the charges he leveled
at them was that they stuck a
knife in the back of the poor
by failing to halt the rise in
prices.
I wonder if they think they
can fool the peop1e?" he said.
Some of the members Of his
own party differ with him he
said, but at least they stand
up and do it openly.

With Barney Schultz pitching shut
out ball, backed up by almost per-
feet defense play, a feature of which
was four double plays, the Owls
took the opening game of the three
game series with Trenton by score
of 90.
Turowicz, a right handler, started
for Trenton, but was knocked out in
the fourth inning, after giving up
eight of the Owls nine runs, and he
was replaced by Savers, another right
handler Gene Crumling was behind
the plate for Hagerstown, with Nick
Tesla doing the catching chores for
Trenton.
Barney Schultz only gave up one
hit through the first five innings
single to Turcy in the second frame
after two were out. But Gene
Crumling threw him out at second
on an attempted steal Trenton got
their second hit in the sixth when
Savers, the pitcher, the first man up,
got clean signal to center, but a
double play took care of him, and
the next man up was an easy out.
They put two hits together in the
eighth frame when Turcy beat out
a hit to second base, and Wetzel fol-
lowed with a single to center
Things didn't look SO good, when
Tesla, the next man up, was safe on
Daddario's error, filling the bases
with nobody out. The next man up
was Savers, the pitcher, who after
running the count to three and two,
fouled off about five pitches. But
Barney kept bearing down and final
ly struck him out Garner, the lead
off man, was up next and promptly
hit into double play.
The Giants got their last hit in the
ninth when Pavlick, the first man
up, singled to center, but Marty"

Second Game

SECOND Oame
While the first game was well
played, the second encounter was a
nightmare. Lou Grasmick, a right
handler, started for the Blue Rocks,
but was taken out at the end of the
third, with the score of 81 in his
favor. understand that he has
been suffering from a sore arm, so
Sanford, the Wilmington manager,
wisely took him out, particularly
with such a safe lead. He was plenty
wild during the three innings he
worked, giving up three walks and
being charged with two wild pitches,
but he got out of trouble by really
bearing down in the clutch, strik-
ing out two men in each of the three
innings. George Thomas, also a
Highlander, took over in the fourth
and held the Owls to one hit-a
single by Rambert-in the last six
innings.
Wigle started for the Owls, but
was knocked out of the box in the
third frame and was relieved by
Snyder, who went the rest of the
way.
Wilmington scored a run in the
first, when Hasenmayer tripled and
came home on Martins error. They
added two more in the second in
nings on two walks, a double, a
sacrifice and stolen base. Six
more Blue Rock runs crossed the
plate in the wild third frame, when
eight men came to bat.
Wigle, after giving up four hits
and three walks without getting a
man out, that, together with a pass
ed ball, accounted for all six of the
runs, was relieved by Snyder, who
retired the side without any fur
Their damage. He struck out the
first two men to face him and forced
the third man to ground to Daddario
for the last out.
Run number ten came in the
fourth, on a double, walk and an
infield out.
The Blue Rocks showed their elev-
enth run across in the sixth frame
on double and a single, and three
more runs came in in the seventh
on three singles, a triple, a walk
and an error.
The Owls had a chance to do some
damage in the first inning, when
Grasmick walked Feltman and
Halvonic, the first two men to face
him, and then advanced both of them
on wild pitch. But Yeash forced
Feltman at the plate for out num-
Der one. With Daddario at bat, the
Wilmington catcher was charged
with a passed ball, on which Hal
vonic went to third and Yeash to
second. But Grasmick, really gain
ing control in a hurry, striking out
both Daddario and Rambert.
The Owls showed their only run
across in the third frame when, with
one out, Yeash singled to center,
went to third on Daddario's single
to right and scored on Rambert's in
field hit to short After that, the
Owls only got one hit, a single by
Rambert in the sixth.
