Joe Louis Spikes
Comeback Word
DENIES WILL FIGHT
GUS LESNEVICH in SEPT.

New York, July rs - Joe Louis
insisted he meant positively
when he stepped down as heavy
weight champion but the ring
world buzzed excitedly over re-
ports he may come out of moth
balls to defend his title again in
September.
mat Fleischer, editor of Ring
magazine, said in a copyrighted
article the Brown Bomber would
meet Light Heavyweight Champ
ion Gus Lesnevich in Yankee
Stadium September %.
Fleischer added he came to this
conclusion after an interview with
the retired Champion in which
Louis told him:
Maybe / SHOULD meet Lesne-
vich. I can beat him, I will still
be able to retire unbeaten like
Gene Tuney".
But in Detroit late yesterday,
caught just as he was finishing
round of golf, Louis drove an
other spike into the comback
talk.

mors come FROM" he said. GIVE

to it.
Louis added he hadn't talked
with Fleischer since the night af-
ter he belted Persey Joe Walcott
in the 18th round submission al
Yankee Stadium and announced
he was through.
He replied absolutely to ques-
ton on whether he intended to
file formal notice of his abdi-
cation with the New York State
Athletic commission.
Lesnevich is now in London
where he will defind his 49,

Bill Will Combat
DIP DISSEMINATION
SENATOR SMITH SAYS
CONGRESS MUST ERASE
UNFORTUNATE" PARTS
OF ADMISSION LAW

Washington, July 10 - Legis-
lature designed to eliminate dis
criminatory phases of the law to
admit displaced persons from
Europe will be introduced next
Monday, the opening day of the
special session of congress, SEN
ator H. Alexander Smith, Repub-
lican of New Jersey, announced to
day.
81 firmly believe, Senator
Smith said, "that it is most i'm
portant that the Congress erase
from the statue books the I'M
fortunate provision of the dis
placed persons act which bar
most of the Jewish displaced per-
sons and many of the Catholic
displaced persons from eligibility"
Senator Smith, representing the
Senate Foreign Relations Commit
tee was advisor to the Senate
Judiciary Committee as it stud
led the displaced-persons pro-
blems. Last year he inspected the
DIP camps in Europe and SUBJ
mitted a special report to the
Foreign Relations body, stressing
the Importance of keeping dis
examinations out of the legisla-
ton.
While the Senate was debating
the DIP measure, Senator Smith
proposed an amendment which,
! if adopted, would have admitted
an estimated 100000 to 100000
Jews who fled pog roms in Po-
land in 1916 and entered Amer
lean DIP camps at that time.
! On June 20 President Truman
signed the DIP bill after it had
been passed, during the closing
q hours of the regular second ses-
sion. However, he denounced 1t
as being "flagrantly discrimina-
tory and said he would have
voted it if Congress had remand
! ed in session.
He called the bill anti-Semtic
and declared that it also would
exclude some Catholics who had
Escaped into the American zone
In Germany as anti-communist
refugees.
The President urged Congress
to rectify its injustice" as soon
as possible.

A Good Friend of Washington

The people of the District lost good
friend in Senator Overton Of Louisiana.
His chairmanship beginning in 1889, of
the Senate Subcommittee on District APP
propriations brought him into close con-
tact with the municipal government and
he worked to serve its best interests.
The "Overton formula for measuring
the amount of the Federal payment, was
never approved by Congress, though Sena-
tor Overton did get it through the Senate.
But it directed new attention to the in
adequateness of what the Federal Gov
ernment was contributing in relation to
what 1t was receiving in municipal serv-
ices, and the payment was increased He
contended that as long as the Federal
Government paid anything in support of
the local government, the payment should
be based on some logical method of meas
uring the benefits 1t represented. No
Washingtonian has ever argued for any
thing else, and Senator Overton did much
to correct the impression of the Federal
payment as being subsidy or handout.
with nothing given in return. His work
for the District was unrelated to his serv-
ices as Senator from Louisiana. But to
the former he brought an intelligent in
terest, sympathetic understanding of
local problems and a spirit of fair play
that made him valued representative of
nonvoting constituents in Washington.

Minnesota Mob Rule

The disgraceful spectacle staged by Clo
packing house strikers in Minnesota can
be traced to tendency in this country
over the past ten years to tolerate laWless-
ness by unions that would not be tolerated
from any one else.
This began with the sitdoWn strikes IN
the automobile industry. Then came the
so-called mass picket line technique, which
is really form of mob rule itself. Wnen
some of the States tried to curb these
lawless tactics, the Supreme Court refer
ring indulgingly to what it was pleased
to call the give-and- of the picket
lines, came to the rescue of the unions.
Congress has not taken any effective cor
rective action and the local communities
generally have been either unable or
unwilling to act.
The country is now witnessing in Minne-
sofa one inevitable result of extending
special consideration to particular groups.
That. episode began with refusal by the
strikers to heed a court order limiting the
number of pickets. When the out
numbered local police attempted to en-
force the order they were beaten and
driven off, Office workers, not on strike,
were forcibly prevented from entering the
packing plants. Finally, some two hundred
men, including strikers. broke into the
plants, where some fifty maintenance
workers were on duty. These men were
beaten with clubs and driven out. Some
were taken out to the woods and beaten.
Others were held as hostages, according
to the news reports. To round out their
nights work, the mobsters then proceeded
to smash equipment and furnishings in
the plants.
Now that the Minnesota Governor has
called out the National Guard, 1t is to be
expected that order will be restored. But
the country has not heard the last of this
sort of thing, and will not hear the last
of it, until we begin to treat lawlessness by
unions precisely as we would treat lawless-
ness by any other group.

Parasite Planes

In experimenting with a small, folding
wing Jet parasite" fighter plane, the Air
Force Is striving to solve the tough prob
lem of providing adequate protection for
long range bombers. In its latest ap-
made use of an idea developed by the
Navy for dirigible protection.
Recognizing the vulnerability to fighter
attack of moving lighter-t -than-air
craft, the Navy equipped the Inflated
dirigibles Akron and Macon with five small
fighters each Hangar" space within the
big ships was provided and hook device
was used to snare the planes when they
returned from mission.
This marsupial arrangement is being
adapted to the huge new B-36s, the bomb
ers which AF spokesmen have declared
will be able to carry 100OO-pound bomb
load to a target 10000 miles away. The
actual performance qualities of this giant
bomber remain to be demonstrated. One
of its drawbacks has been that no fighter
plane yet developed would be able to pro-
vide cover for the bomber over extreme
ranges But if a squadron of B36S or
other bomberS were able to carry its own
fighter protection in bomb-bay compart-
ments, disgorging them when enemy in
terceptors appear. the hazards would be
greatly diminished.
The new parasite" known as the XF
IS, has no undercarriage. 1t is not in
tended to make conventional landings
Instead it has an overhead gadget which
will enable it to hook onto graphing
device let down from the belly of the
bomber. It can thus be drawn back into
the mother ship for refueling, rearming or
repairs.

A Queen Retires Proudly

To us Americans, especially those OF us
with no immediate European ancestors,
the monarchical sentiment is outside our
ken. Nearly two centuries OF the repub-
lican tradition have effaced it from our
understanding. Indeed, during the early
stages of our national life, our revolution
ary rejection of sovereign engendered
aversion to monarchy, much as the citizens
of republican Rome reprobated the word
king"
Today we have achieved melloWer
maturity in this matter Even though for
us monarchy is unthinkable, we yet respect
the monarchical sentiment in others and
even acknowledge its advantages. We
therefore join Fundamentally in apprecia-
ton of the deep emotions felt by the people
of the Netherlands and its associated
peoples in the East and West Indies upon
the moving address of their venerable
Queen Wilhelmina announcing her COM
ing retirement from the throne which she
has occupied for nearly fifty years.
In few countries has the reigning
dynasty been more fully the symbol Of
national life or enshrined itself more
deeply in the hearts of the people. For
all it's subjects, whether in the homeland
or overseas, the House of Orange excites
an almost mystic loyalty and veneration.
And no ruler in this long line has more
exemplified the virtues of monarchy than
Queen Wilhelmina.
1t was away back in 1890 when the death
of her father, King William ILL., devolved
the succession upon a ten-year-old girl.
Technically, she then became Queen, but
until her majority eight years later, her.
mother exercised regency. Her assump-
ton of the throne took place in September,
1898, and her decision to abdicate in favor
of her daughter, Princess Juliana, will take
effect after the celebration of her golden
jubilee.
The past decade, especially the tragic
years of exile in Britain during the Nazi
occupation of her homeland has told
heavily on the vitality of woman nearing
her SEVENTEEN milestone. So she has
wisely concluded that the responsibilities
of state in so troubled and uncertain a
time as ours should be placed on younger
and stronger shoulders. The Princess
Juliana has already demonstrated her
ability, while the succession is secured
through her daughters.
In the long reign of Queen Wilhelmina
there is striking parallel with that of
Britain's Queen Victoria. Both monarchs

The Human Face

John Brophy, the English novelist, prob
ably never would have written his book
on "The Human Face" If anybody else
had tried the same assignment. Finding
that he had developed hobby of watching
people, it occurred to him that 1t would
be a good idea to read up on how men,
women and children look-and why $50

thought about the human face, in rapture,
in disillusionment, or in spite" he says.
zone might imagine whole library exists
on the subject"
But there is none True, books on portral
ture, on facial diseases and injuries and
remedial surgery, on the alleged science
of reading character" in peoples faces
are plentiful enough. Johann Kaspar
Lavater made an art out of sketching hun
dreds of individuals and then theorizing on
their "physiognomical' qualities-amusing
yet unconvncing. Mr. Brophy spent fifteen
years trying to find "even one established
authority to use as a springboard for my
own inquiries and speculations," meanwhile
accumulating data OF course, he worked
over the Bible and Shakespeare thor
oughly: Both are full of references to faces.
And he did research among the painters
from Appelles to Zorn. Every great gallery
in Christendom passed through his hands.
There were moments when he agreed with
Thomas Browne in wondering "how among
so many million of faces there should be
none alike" and moments when he shared
Emerson's conviction that certain groups
the Quakers for instance-"have acquired
a face" cultivated standard resemblance.
Any SUCH quest is fascinating. Mr.. Bro
ply had marvellous series of experiences
in his chase It has been demonstrated that:
"All the good and all the evil in the world
are to be found in human faces" yet:
when we look at any human face we deal
with mystery, and mystery Gn the purer
sense of the word which obtained before
stories of criminals became fashionable
entertainment) is at the core of what we
regard as sacred" The riddle is part of
the grander riddle of why and how we
exist at all.
Mr.. Brophy concludes with frank ap-
praisal of the religious conception of man
created in the image of the Supreme Deity.
He discovers: 'In mans face there is to be
discerned a faint reflection I" " of the
nature of our God, who is, who must be,
we being what we are, human God.
If we have invented an imaginary God,
then at least it is a noble conception"
The same observation applies to man when
he consciously strives to look-and to be-
his best self, does it not?

The Draft Is Vitul

The chances for passage at this session
of Congress of the administration -spon-
sored Universal Military Training program
are simmer than ever, now that the
Senate Armed Services Committee has
rendered its verdict. After lengthy hear
ings and deliberations, the committee has
reported that UNIT, as originally proposed,
would be "inexpedient at this time" from
the standpoints of cost as well as "prac-
ticability" 1t certainly looks as though
it would be impracticable to press for
passage of so controversial measure at
this late date-and in an election year.
However the committee has proposed
a compromise selective servce-milltary
training bill that, while it does not en-
tirely satisfy military authorities, is prob
ably as much as can be expected from
Congress at this time. That being the
case, the blended service-training plan
deserves careful consideration by both
houses.
greatly modified training plan onto the
less Objectionable draft measure. Thus, a
limited form of training, its proponents
hope, would ride to enactment on the
back of selective service. The compromise
training plan has the distinct advantage
of involving no significant costs beyond
those already proposed for the next fiscal
year, for existing manpower machinery
would be utilized. 1t would be "practi-
CABLE" therefore, from both the fiscal and
administrative aspects.
The bill, in brief, would set up two
classes of recruits. First. there would be
those in the to-twenty-six age
group who would be selected for two-year
enlistments in the regular services. There
after they would serve for two years in the
organized reserves or be subject to call
for five years in the inactive reserves.
Second, there would be the eighteen-year-
olds who could volunteer for one year Of
training and subsequent reserve aff1liation
or, If not enough volunteers responded,
would be subject to draft for such train
ing. Those in the older age group would
be permitted to volunteer for three-year
bitches, but not for the regular two-year
term of service.
This blended program gives proper at
tention to the seriously tagging reserve
problem. Besides supplying sufficient men
to meet requirements of the three serv-
ices under the expanded defense setup, 1t
would feed into the organized and in
active reserves the trained manpower
needed to support the regular establish
ment. This is phase of security which
has not been given the consideration
demanded by its Importance.
Whether the Senate and the House will
go along with the recommendations of
the Senate committee is uncertain. The
pending House selective service bill con-
tains no training provision. If the final
showdown means choice between elm
ination of the training section or defeat
of the whole bill there can be only one
answer. Whatever the fate of the training
program, the Nation cannot afford to de-
prive the military branches of the only
sure method TO quickly building up their
strength. That method is the draft system
that has proved so effective and so
equitable in past emergencies. No side
issues should be permitted to interfere
with prompt passage of this vital legis-

wonder whether my suggestion is really
too far-fetched? Or is there some way by
which our Government can be influenced to

in this country? The Soviet Union, 1t seems
certain, would follow suit. And the atmos-
phere of such meeting would be so con-
ducive to understanding that peace might
really be achieved. MORRIS FRISCH.
