States; but 1 suspect some
times that we are approaching
a stage where the binders may
be dispensed with.
FOR this new stage of the
American ethic under the BEN
evolent reign of Harry S. Tru-
man and the bipartisan policy,
we have to thank Justice Ber-
tram L. Newman, who holds
down the bench of the New
York Supreme Court at Bing-
hamton. Even as Solomon in
ancient times, two parents came
to him with a child and de-
manded judgment.
The one who did not have
the child accused the other, in
whose custody the child was,
of communist sympat HES.
Whereupon, Justice Newman,
the better for our European
cousins to love and admire our
mysterious way of jurispru-
dence, made the following pro-
nouncement:
If this charge of communist
sYmpathies were established.
we would not hesitate TO change
the custody of the child. 1t
would be our duty to do SO.
This child is entitled TO be rear
ed as an American under Amer
lean influences"
NOW as one who mas not in
frequently been accused of COM
munist sympathies, and as the
father of two children, / do not
hesitate to say that Justice New
mans incredible and somewhat
bestial statement sent the cold
shivers up and down my spine.
Consider a little more deeply
than the bare facts of Justice
Newman's statement. Out of the
long past-which was said to
be little more inhuman than
the times We live in today-the
cruellest and most obvious way
of striking at an adult was
through his or her child.
Of all crimes, kidnapping is
recognized as the most heinous,
the most awful, the most de-

Rufus Perkins says he doesn't
want to get rich.
IT just want to make enough
money to feed my wife and kids"
he'll tell you.
And then he adds, bitterly: as
that too much to ask?'
Rufus hasn't worked for five
months. Not since March is. II
was then that his Union. the
United Packinghouse Workers
tCIO). went out on strike against
the Big Four meat packers for a
ascent wage increase.
THE STRIKE is over two
nonths-but today dozens of
victimized strikers like Perkins
are dramatic evidence as to why
that strike had to be called in
the IlrSL place.
They are still being prosecuted
by a management which was
and is-out to smash the pack
inghouse union.
I'VE had to go out on strike
then" Rufus will tell you. THE
situation was critical. Us pack
inghouse workers. were near to
starving. Sure, we knew we had
a tough fight on our hands. We
knew we wouldn't get-paid while
we were out on strike. But
with our wages-we had every
thing to gain, and nothing to
lose.'
RUFUS Perkins, 80, who lives
with his wife, Georgia, SO, and
his five kids-Moblene, 10; Yu-
vet, IA; Yuvone, Is; Donald, II,
and Ronald, 18-in three-room
flat at 433 E. 10Th, put his whole
heart into the strike.
After working IL years at Will
son & Co. at every kind of work
starting at 46 cents an hour in
Wilson'S hide cellar in 1936-he
knew what it took to win strike.

be bent to his knees by striking
at him through his children, and
this was a fact which Adolf
Hitler recognized full well, and
used.
CONSIDER the other part of
this interesting legal decision
of New York State Supreme
Court Justice. What is COM

the definition becomes even

! STARTED this piece with
a word or two about morality.
To put it bluntly, the ethics of
Justice Newman are the ethics
of brute or fascist.
His statement is a calculated
insult TO all that is good. hon

might be said that he is a man

he will discover. sooner or later.
