Comparatively small parties are
particularly enjoyable these mid

basic principles Of the Bill Of Rights, he
concluded that the requirement for
search warrant in criminal case or
in a quasi-criminal case looking to the
imposition of penalties was never intended
to apply to an inspection by health
officer.
In view of this learned difference OF
opinion, it may be hoped that the Dis
trict authorities will seek a final ruling
from the Supreme Court. The matter is
of more than trivial Importance. For one
thing, if warrants are necessary, the door
would seem to be hopelessly closed to
routine health inspections not based on
substantial complaints. For another,
there apparently Is no existing statute
under which health officer can obtain
a warrant. In other words, under the
majority ruling, 1t may not be possible to
conduct any inspections of private homes
unless and until Congress makes statutory
provision for warrants, and that may be
harder to get than ruling from the high

A Popular Decision

The decision to preserve as much of the
White House as possible in the current
repair project will meet with widespread
popular approval. 1t is pleasant to know
that there is still some place for sentiment
in this highly impersonal Government of
ours. For 1t was a sentimental regard for
the historic associations of the old man
sion rather than practical considerations
of cost and ease of construction, which
led the Commission on White House Rem
ovation to recommend repair instead of
full reconstruction.
It will be difficult engineering feat to
save the old walls which have housed so
many Presidents and other notables New
footings must be installed and a new
structural steel framework built to carry
the weight of the restored structure Chair
man Cannon of the House Appropriations
Committee undoubtedly is right in stating
that it would be cheaper to tear down the
walls and start over again from scratch.
But there are times when the economy
factor is outweighed by other, more i'm
portant, factors This Is such a time
Much of the former building will have
to be rebuilt from the ground up, of
course But in the rebuilding every effort
should be made to restore the interior
to its original appearance. The task will
present many engineering and decorat-
ing problems for those entrusted with
the responsibility. The hallowed home
of the Nations Presidents is worth the
trouble involved in the restoration project,

Russiu and Arms Control

The overwhelming majority OF the Com
mission for Conventional Armaments has
approved French proposal for census OF
both the armed forces and the non-atomlc
weapons of the members OF the United
Nations. But the proposal-which Is de-
signed to serve as prelude to general
dsarmament-will almost certainly die
a-borning. The reason for this is that the
Russians are against 1t. and they can be
counted upon to veto 1t In the Security
Council.
Actually, the proposed census is not
new idea It has been advocated before,
only to meet with such uncompromising
Soviet opposition that the Commission on
Conventional Armaments decided last year
to suspend its deliberations. The General
Assembly, however, requested 1t to resume
its work, with the result that the proposal
is now up again, and again faced with the
usual Russian obstructionism, which In
turn is likely to lead to another suspension
in the commissions activities
The same Illustration and futility have
characterized the work of the U. N. Atomic
Energy Commission. In face OF an un-
bending Soviet refusal to cooperate In
establishing effective world control OF
A-weapons and kindred non conventional
armaments, the commission last year voted
to suspend its deliberations. But here again
the General Assembly requested con-
tinued effort, and week or so ago, after
trying to get somewhere against Russian
intransigence, the commission decided
once more to end its meetings and turn the
problem over to the major powers, with
the hope that they may be able to find
some basis for agreement through direct
negotiations.
Thus, as regards both conventional and
unconventional armaments the outlook
is unchanged. 1t is as bleak and dreary as
ever Standing alone with its satellites,
the Soviet Union has blocked all progress
toward disarmament and atomic control
The U. N has run up against stone wall
in a dead-end street, and it will stay there
as long as the Russians adhere to their
obstructionist policy. Quite clearly, as of
now, they have no intention of changing
that policy to let anybody take a census of
their military strength or lay the ground
work for policing the atom.
It need hardly be added that in such
circumstances the rest of the world cannot
be blamed if it concludes that the Soviet
position is animated by dark motives and
objectives, not by desire for peace. OBJ
viously, it is position meaningful and
disturbing enough to lend support to the
argument for armaments aid 10 improve
the defenses of free Western Europe.

tion necessarily is based on the assumption
that the saving of human lives is para
mount to considerations of mercy and kind
ness. The assumption is wrong. For the
waste OF human life in war, preventable
accidents, crime, and wanton cruelty of man
towards man, proves that human life is one
OF the cheapest of commodities. Further
more if every dog in the United States
were killed under the knives of the vivisec-
tionists the resulting saving of human life
wouldn't amount to fraction of one per
cent even of the IS 5000 people senselessly
killed in traffic accidents each year You
therefore could direct your efforts to greater
benefits by concentrating on eliminating
unfit and drunken automobile drivers
When l compare the meanness and
cruelty OF so-called humans as reported
daily IN the press. with the never-varying
loyalty and affection OF my dog, cannot
but think that it would make more sense to
experiment on humans in an effort to save
tne nVes OF more dogs. A. w. D.

Virqinio Holds the Line

There is a tendency especially among
those who do not know what they are talk
ing about, to read national issues into
local political campaign. This was true OF
yesterdays primary in Virginia.
According to some Of the prediction
comment, the bid by Francis Pickens Mil
ler for the governorship was not only a
challenge to the Byrd machine" in Vir-
ginia but a test of the popularity OF the
national and international policies advo-
Gated by the Virginia Senator. If Colonel
Miller had won, his victory would have
been interpreted by the anti-Byrd COM
mentators as reputation of the things
that the Senator has stood for in public
life and as a mortal blow to his political
organization in Virginia Consequently
for what it is worth, this line of reasoning
can be applied to the result of the primary
which was won handily by State Senator
John S. Battle, the Byrd candidate, and
viewed as an Endorsement by the Virginia
voters of the Byrd machine" and the Byrd
policies.
But any such appraisal actually is not
worth very much. For with the exception
of an attempt at intervention by few
national labor leaders, the Virginia pri-
mary was local affair, decided largely on
the basis of local issues
Col. Miller, rallying behind him all Of
the political elements in the State which
can agree only on their opposition to the
Byrd organization, ran about as expected.
He got shade better than third of the
votes cast which is about normal for the
anti-Byrd faction. Senator Battle did bet
ter than had been expected But this is
attributable to the real surprise of the elec-
tion-the poor showing made by Horace
Edwards, former Byrd man, running as
q middle of the-roader. Mr.. Edwards
pinned his hopes to his advocacy of
sales tax for school purposes, and this had
the professional politicians guessing. 1t
was supposed that this would appeal
strongly to the farmers and the school
groups, but the total Edwards vote was
some $4,000 to 10000 less than had been
anticipated. The fourth candidate, Remmie
Arnold Of Petersburg, was hopelessly
beaten, as expected, but he picked up bet
ter than 10000 votes, most of which other
wise would have gone to the organization
candidate.
If there is anything in this primary that
bears significantly on the political future
in Virginia, it is not apparent on the face
of the returns. Col. Miller to be sure, says
that this is just the beginning; that he
and his allies will stay in the fight to
overturn the dominant organization. But
on the basis of his showing in this primary,
it is hard to see where he is going to find
the necessary public support.

Jersey, Wisconsin, Illinois and Alaska. His
faculty work at Chicago and Harvard made
him the leader of a movement in geograph-
ical and geological teaching which still
continues operative. The textbooks he
sponsored gave him entree to hundreds of
thousands of young minds.
But Clark University was more than the
hub of DR.. Atwoods activities He attract
ed to it's halls instructors who visualized
humanity as universal community of
men, women and children competent to
solve the problems of group association.
The earth, as he saw it, was rich with
values subject to reasonable exploitation
for the benefit of all its peoples. An obvi-
Gus key to that treasury of demonstrated
and potential wealth was a creative con-
ception of geography He stressed the
economics Of his speciality During more
than a quarter of a century he furnished
an aggressive leadership for the enterprise
he had initiated. Even in retirement he
gave himself without stint to the cause of
ever widening geographic knowledge
OF course, Dr. Atwood did not please
everybody. Critics insisted that he went
too far" with his popularizing campaigns.
His answer was a patient tolerance which
gradually proved effective in converting
doubters. In the end he saw his enthusi-
asms justified. His faith in geography paid
dividends In World War II, in Western
Hemisphere solidarity and in a phenome-
nal growth of public concern for conserva-
t1on and wise employment of natural
resources

Dr.. w. W. Atwood

When Wallace Walter Atwood became
president of Clark University in 1920, that
institution, under the influence of his pred
ecessor, Granville Stanley Hall, meant
psychology rather than any other study.
He made it signify geography. The change,
naturally enough, was resisted. Five mem
bers Of the faculty protested. A number
of alumni complained. There was heated
discussion in the press. But the furor soon
died down, and Worcester's most important
center of learning took on new lease of
life as focal point for growing interest
in the physical world.
DR.. Atwood himself was the architect Of

No Place Like Home

The Court of Appeals has just struck
q resounding blow for the inviolability of
the home. 1t may be Uttered with gar
bage, or worse, but in the opinion OF two
members of a three-judge panel 1t re-
mains the owners castle, and immune to
inspection by Health Department officials
unless they have first armed themselves
with a search warrant.
This is another one of those cases in
which the courts find it more than lit
tie difficult to reconcile their concept OF
the protection extended to the individual
by the Bill of Rights with the necessity
for protecting the interests of society as
q whole.
Some months ago the Health Depart
ment received a complaint against Mrs.
Geraldine Little, 1900 block of Tenth street,
NV, the complaint being that there was
an accumulation of loose and uncovered
garbage and trash in the halls of said
premises and that certain of the persons
residing therein had failed to avail them
selves of the toilet facilities" An in
spector was sent around and Mrs. Little
refused to let him In. She was charged
with interfering with the inspector in the
performance of his duty, convicted and
fined in Municipal Court.
The main issue was whether she was
obliged to admit the inspector, since he
had no warrant to search her home. The
Municipal Court of Appeals held war
rant to be necessary in the circumstances
of this case, and reversed the conviction
It is that ruling that now has been up
held by majority of the judges hearing
the case in the United States Court of
Appeals.
The majority of the court, Judges Pretty
man and Proctor, held that there was no
real distinction between an inspection and
a search of a home, and that in the ab-
sence of some emergency condition q
health officer needs a warrant for an in
spection just as police officer needs a
warrant for search. IF private homes, "
the majority declared, "are open to the
intrusion of Government enforcement Of
fcials, at the wish of those officials, with
out the intervening mind and hand OF a
magistrate, one prop of the structure OF
our (democratic) system Is gone and an
outstanding characteristic of another
form of government will have been sub
stituted"
Judge Holtzoff, dissenting, thought that
this was a bit far-fetched. Although
agreeing with his colleagues as to the
