Oren Sterling, president of the
Owls, told me on Tuesday evening
that he had just got through talk

and that Bluege told him he was

of R. H. HiXon, now with the Char

It's sure good to have a fighting

one or two tough breaks. But don't
forget that we are miles ahead of
the team of last year, which lost 10
out of their first II games.
noticed by the box scores that
Woody" Wheaton has been shift
ing his infield around quite bit,
due probably to minor injuries, and
that, of course, has been tough
break, as you like to have an in
field playing together as much as
possible in order to set up your best
inner defense. Then too "Woody's"
pitching staff has been slow coming
around, but when these kinks are
ironed out 1 think you will find the
Owls giving a good account of them
selves all around.
Looking over this weeks Sport
ing News, l see where Ken Hum
phrey is going great guns with Little
Rock in the Southern League. He
plays rightfeld and bats third in
the lineup.
l also saw where Jim Lawrence
broke into the Little Rock lineup
as a relief pitcher and turned in
fine job.
George Daddario appears regular
ly in the Wilkes-Barre lineup in
the Eastern League. He plays sec
ond base and is batting third,
In the Eastern League, Claude
Christie has been doing the catch
ing in several gamse for Williams
port and Kapucinski is taking his
regular turn on the mound-he won
his last start.
1 guess as president of the "Y"
County Softball League ought to
look into those two games between
Charlton and Cavetown on Sunday
afternoon, when Charlton won the
first game 31-1 and then took the
second game 23-1, but l have been
assured that the boX-car numbers
were not taken off of one of the
Charlton trucks, but it was just
case of the Cavetown pitchers hav-
ing a bad day and the Charlton
batters going on a hitting spree.
Just last minute reminder that
the Owls will play Wilmington to-
night at 8:15, and then Allentown
will come in for single games to-
morrow and Saturday night and
doubleheader on Sunday, after which
the team will leave for road trip,
taking them to Trenton and Sun

 The famed head of the G-Men says Tt is better to prevent brutal assaults than to launch later wide snread manhunts after child has been violated and murdered" Obviously it is. Yet curously, most of the pblic discussion centers around the apprehension and punishment of men who already have committed such crimes All too little discussion deals with the matter of preventing them
 Director Hoover gave some good rules for curbing sex crimes First he urged parents to caution their children to beware accepting favors rides from strangers When offenses occur, he strongly urged that they be reported give police clues upon which to track down suspects possibly before they cause serious harm Then MT Hoover said, if present State laws do not provide for medical and psychatrc treat ment of sexual deviates and confinement of the hope lessly incurabe then it is time we enact such laws Finally he recommended that newspapers give fuil prominence to such offenses though emitting the names of victims which is customary newspaper practice already.

antitrust act and the Clayton act deal with monopolies, trusts, the seizure of economic power in res traint of the trading rights of others. the A and P does not fit the picture.
 In the matter of the Du Fonts, the antitrust lawyers may have case because the Du Pont eco1l- omic empire is so widespread. In my debate with Congressman Emanuel Celler on this subject, he raised the question as to the Du Pont ownership of stock in General Mo tors and the U. s. Rubber Con- pany. The fact is that the Du Fonts in one respect are private
 bankers underwriting, at great risk private ventures
 For instance, they came into General Motors when that com pany was going broke. William c. Durant had to be bought out to save the company
 Two questions arise: The first is, are not the Du Fonts entitled to hold stock in company which they saved from bankruptcy and helped to build to it's present estate? The other question is the broader and more general one: is it sound group should posses the economic power which the Du Fonts now hold? These questions cannot be answered by yes or no. And they lead to the further one: Is it sounder for a business to sell 25

 We'll, the Republican newspapers let out terrific howl-not about the bucket and dipper but about the Secretary of State appearing on the same platform with tyrolean alpine yodlers, which was not exactly true. However, I still think it was a good idea for the smaller towns of the U.S.A., which seldom see a Secretary of State in person, to learn about our foreign affairs from the man who runs them.
 And compared with the lecture fees of today, Bryan's $250 a lec- ture was chicken feed. In fact, Par nell Thomas used to collect much more than this himself as a lec- turer; and, as Chairman of the American Activities Committee he was in big demand-a perfectly legitimate way to --c-ease his in- come.

Morality Between Wars


 In restrospect, however, there are lot more iportant considerations in our lives and in our nation than pity and the discontinue of one man.
 A military commander in time of war sometimes has to sacrifice whole companies and regiments of fine men in order to save the rest of his army And in peacetime we have to make an example of one in high position who betrays a public trust-if we are to save our Demo- cratic system.
 Some people forget that our nor ality and respect for clean govern ment between wars is just as im- portant as our ability to win wars. If that wasn't so, then wars would not be worth winning.
 A lot of boys died to defend our Democratic system only four short years ago, and we are still spend- ing billions in the cold war to uphold it. So if the man at the head of a committee supposed to be an example of good Americanism practices cheap, tawdry and ill., egal Americanism, then suppose I should not, in a weak moment, feel sorry for him.
 However, I couldn't help think ing of these things as sat in the courtroom.
 How Bryan Augmented Salary
 Thomas's excuse, of course, is that he had to augment his Congress- mans salary But there can be no excuse for helping soldiers escape combat duty in wartime and then afterward. Nor is there any excuse for putting charwoman and a girl who never came near the of- flee on the Secretarial payroll and then pocketing the money. It's bad enough putting wife. daughter in-law and a bedridden aunt on the payroll.
 I can sympathize with the prob lem of our public servants in mak- ing some extra money, but there is other ways of making it. remem- Der when William Jennings Bryan was Secretary of State, your grand father Pearson invited him to speak on the Swarthmore Chat auguas which were then in Mary land, Virginia and Pennsylvania not far from Washington.
 Bryan, not wealthy man, ac- cepted, and filled about twenty speaking engagements at $25l

Most Congressman don't Chtht
 Contrary to general gossip, I don't think that there are many Con- gressmen who resort to Parnell Thomas's cheap and tawdry way of making money. pride myself on knowing Congress pretty well, and am convinced that the great ma jority of both houses are honest, sincere and have the welfare. of the country very much at heart. They recognize that the money al lotted them for secretarial help comes not from their own pockets but from the taxpayers and that it has to be spent as public trust. When you look around the world today, there are not many Demo cratic legislative bodies left. Ours is one of the few. And sometimes we forget that the right of the people to govern themselves is is something your great-grand- fathers have been fighting for ever since the 1700's, and we've got to preserve the integrity of what they won.
 Congress is merely the medium by which people exercise the right to govern themselves. Some day I want it to be governing for, with and by my grandson, and in the interim I don't want a Parnell Thomas or anyone else to destroy its good name

 Journal, however, involves so such
 difficulty To my thinking, it is a sinister attempt at government control of the press. The principles
 abducted can be said to any news paper. In the Lorain Journal case, the antitrust lawyers seek to force
 newspaper to accept all advertis- ing submitted for publication. Sup- pose a newspaper repects liquor

SCHWINN BIKES AT MADSEN'S
The Daily Alaska empire., 1949-12-10

Sometimes a newspaper rejects an advertisement because it has no space. The first duty of a news paper is to publish the news. It is not at all unusual for such a news paper as the New York Times" to say that so many pages of ad- vertising were omitted because they had no space. It is matter of judgment. They will waste, from my standpoint, a page of type publishing a ghost written speech by a president or someone like that and omit page of advertise ment. If the publishers of that newspaper want to lose good money that way, it is up to them. If they prefer to be a newspaper of record and publish full documents, that is their business It certainly reduces revenue from advertising. Now along comes the Department of Justice and takes the position that they must accept the advertis- ing revenue even if they have to omit the presidents speech.
 Certainly this makes no sense about trust busting, anti-monopoly, restraint of trade. It is unrelated to the subject. It is an attempt to establish government control of newspapers. The origin of the at tempt may go back to the rejection by some newspapers of advertise ments of books, societies and com mittees which the publishers re- jected for good and sufficient req sons. A publisher sells household commodity and he stakes his re- putation on what he thinks is de- cent. He must have freedom to do that. And only that is the issue in the Lorain Journal. case
