Christians Find Rule in Gang.States
In Conflict With Authority of God

before just such court: the "peo-
pies tribunal" in Berlin OF the
Nazi government. The judge was
the notorious Roland Freisler.
The accused was Count Helmuth
James Won Moltke. charged with
treason against Hitlers "state." :"
He hardly defended himself. He
was sentenced and hanged.
How could Won Moltke be an
enemy of the state? His ancestors
had helped create and defend the
German Reich, and its history
was associated with his name.
From childhood he had been
reared IN respect for law. He
steadfastly had upheld all laws of
the republic. He had led Prus-
sian landlords in land reform.
His life was upright, unblemished,
gentle, austere.
Took No Part in Plot.
He went to his death purely
and simply because he was a
Christian. He had played no part
in the plot to assassinate Hitler
and, indeed. was arrested months
before the attempt occurred. But
he believed Nazi Germany would
and should be defeated, by the
Justice of God. He held the Ger
man state in contempt as no state
at all. but a gang-state led by
Goddess criminals. The mere fact
of his existence, the mere thoughts
that he held and communicated
were inimical to the foundations
of the Hitlerian order. Helmuth
Won Moltke's concept of lawful
state and Hitler's could not live
together in the same country.
The judge knew it. Won Moltke
knew it. On this issue they were
in complete agreement.
Won Moltke lived long enough
after his sentence to put in writ
ing q complete account and anal
ysis of the trial in letter to
his wife; which the courageous
(and also treasonable) prison
smuggled out to her. This
letter never has been published
in the United States. But it
throws more light on the issue
between the gang-state and the
Christian conscience than any
other document of our times. In
another column I shall review it.
For it is absolutely pertinent to
the new peoples tribunal trials
of Hitler's Communist successors.

Battle Over Health Measure Is
One That Involves the Emotions

going to wait until the evidence
is in.
This doctor may or may not be
typical. But it has become fairly
clear that the American Medical
Association and its lobbying ally,
the National Physicians Commit
tee, have somewhat overstated the
degree to which medical men are
opposed to any insurance plan.
Rebuked by the British Medical
Association for alleged misrepre-
sentation of British medical opin-
ion, the ANA is sending a COM
.mittee to, Europe : to- study and
report on the insurance operation
in Britain and other countries.
Working on Substitute.
Rebuked also by a large group
of American doctors for attempt
ing to assess them S25 each to
fight the Government plan. with
out having plan of its own to
offer, the ANA is now working on
a proposed legislative substitute
for insurance.
And. as important as anything
else no doubt, the ANA has got
itself a new press agent. a highly
successful California public re-
lations man. Glen Whitaker.
Mr.. Whitaker is unlikely to be
guilty of the mistake recently
made by the free-spending Ma
tional Physicians Committee. The
NPC mailed to ministers and ed
itors. with its blessing, copy OF
washington Letter" attributed
to Dan Gilbert. The letter de-
scribed health insurance as a
monster of anti-Christ political
medicine" that would establish
quotas for the baby crop in the
same way the Agriculture the
orists set quotas for farm produc-
ton"
The Senate committee has a
copy of this bit of "educational'
material, together with list of
Mr.. Gilbert's former associates
in Silver Shirt and similar organi-
cations. NPC representatives are
not likely to have pleasant time
when they appear before the Sem
ate committee.

is assumed they have been purged.
The document, which the U. S.
S. R. naturally declared a "capl-
talistic fake" gives detailed in
structions to various German Or
ganiza tions on how to act when
they get the green light from
headquarters in the Eastern zone.
Women's organizations, youth
groups and veterans organiza-
tions are instructed in the docu-
ment to descend on the Western
sectors at a given signal and begin
demonstrations of a violent ma
ture. The homes of Allied officials
are to be attacked, as we'll as in
stallations of the Western powers.
Casualties Predicted.
The document coldly predicts
that because the demonstrators
lack weapons with which to fight
there will be. unquestionably,
many casualties among the Com
munists when Western German
police. supported by Western AL
lied constabulary, attempt to re-
store order.

Atlantic Pact Furry
Acheson Pleas for End of Speculation
Show Deep Concern Over Senate Debate

to pin some large question down
because they know he likes every
i dotted, every t crossed.
Quite UNEXPECTEDLY. Senator
Donnell rose in a routine session
and posed the question of how FAR
the United States was proposing
to go in the North Atlantic pact,
did it morally obligate us to go to
war, etc. Press dispatches, he said,
were saying that it did. 1t was
then that Senator Connally and
Vandenberg offered their views
that it would not so obligate us,
even if one of the members OF the
pact were attacked. Europe's dis
tress and confusion swiftly echoed.
Much was made of the Senators
statements, which were in fact
more or less curbstone judgments
about a treaty not even shown yet
to members of their committee.
The implications of the situation
were, therefore, somewhat mis-
judged on the floor and by the
press. which tended to give the i'm
preston that this was full-dress
debate on a well-considered prof.
ect already before the Senate. 1t
was anything but.
Too Speculative.
The White House feels it would
have been wiser to have turned
Senator Donnell aside with the
explanation that his question at
this stage was too speculative.
that when the pact came before
the Senate it would have the
fullest debate.
Interestingly. the two Senators
who instantly grasped the impli-
cations of the spontaneous debate
were the two young World War II
veterans, Republicans Knowland
of California and Lodge Of Massa-
chusetts. Both protested it was a
mistake to be giving the impress
sion that we would remain indif-
ferent to an attack on one of the
members of the Atlantic commu-
nity. l141@.. tith 'AG

Good Management
Helps Production

Big flocks produce more eggs
per hen than small flocks!
This recent report by the
USDA's Bureau of Agricultural
Economics, says d. ID. Meyer, ex-
tension specialist in poultry at
Ohio State University, tells only
half the story.
What he feels is important is
that good laying records follow
good management practices, and
the more chickens a poultry
raiser has, the better job he, tries
to do with them.
Many small flocks are left to
shift for themselves, Meyer points
out, and a poor laying record re-
suits. When the flock gets above
100 in number, the owner tends
to make poultry more of bus
mess.
"As a result" he adds, "they
keep up-to-date on new methods,
buy quality chicks, feed them
scientifically and house them
properly"
None of these practices are be-
yond the reach of the owner who
has small flock, declares Meyer,
who believes that if one is going
to keep chickens at all he might
as well do it right.
