 An FBI agent who arrested Judith Coplon and Valentin Cub itchev was called today to testify at a preliminary hearing preced- ing formal opening of their trial on charges of spying for Russia.
 Robert Granville, special agent assigned to the FBI's New York office, was called to the stand by defense counsel Archibald Palmer.
 Granville arrested the former girl government worker and the Rus sian engineer she said she once loved after trailing them through Manhattan streets last March 4.
 The case was called for trial Eefore Federal Judge Sylvester Ryan at 1925 pm. today.
 Granville testified he arrested the pair without a warrant. Under questioning by Palmer he admitted he had not tried to obtain one from a US. Commissioner or a Federal Judge.
 One of the defense counsel's pre- trial motions attacked the legality of Miss Coplon's arrest.

ing away few hours after the show - because there is not something better to do. They are not drunk, nor will they be-but they are bored! 90 per cent of our night crowd are suffering from boredom, and don't know it.
 Bowling is a good, healthy exercise. It is noteworthy that one feels more physically fit after a hard season of bowling. It's good exercise, an outlet for pent up energy, relaxing to the nerves, an altogether fine recreation-if you like it. But how can four alleys in one small building take care of a town this size?
 There are 25, by actual count, 25 ganizations in Seward. This does not include churches or small church clubs, nor neighborhood clubs. 25 organ iZatlonS to offer entertainment of some sort, and relaxing mo- ments to adults. Some are well and joyfully attended, others attend simply because of obli- gations. Nevertheless, the op- portunity to get out of the house and away from the family for an hour is provided. Prob ably a survey of these organi- zations would prove that at least 25 percent of the mem berships of at least half of them would be the same people. We find ourselves involved in one club or lodge after another, until before we know it, the week is not long enough to attend all our meetings.
 What are the children doing while we are attending our meetings? If they are young enough to be left with a baby sitter, we have enough respon- sible baby sitters in town that mother can relax for few hours feeling confident that her children are safe. But the older children beyond the age of baby sitting-What are they doing?
 I agree with correspondent, we should not ask our law en- forcement officers to be baby sitters, and although that is not the intention of the curfew, it may at times seem to have that result.
 No, the answer to the whole question is good, comprehen- sive full time recreational pro- gram for children and adults alike. We have the building, we acknowledge the need, we have the basic organization. to handle such program. We also have a trained, experienced director in mind
 All that remains is to decide whether we are willing to raise the money for recreational program for Seward, or whether we shall continue to pay. our police department to force our young people to stay at home evenings.
 It can be done-either way. But let's give the kids a break! Let's give ourselves less worry. Other small towns are doing it and Seward can do what any one other community can do.

On Tuesday we made rather negative survey of juvenile recreation facilities in Seward 1 may have missed some of the many forms of clean, happy entertainment of fered our young people, but I doubt it.
 Now let's see what we adults have in the way of recreation.
 Three visits in one week to the local cinema is an eye opener. This is certainly the number one field of escape from the humdrum of every day, Work-a-day life.
 Then take a tour through the bars and night clubs. Go ahead, it won't hurt you! There will be a somewhat different group of people, but the prob ability is that you will be sur prised to find that on the whole the night clubs are rather quiet places. You may also be amazed at the number of friends and acquaintances you will meet in the course of an evening-whil-

The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1949-06-16

The first was when he declared that
the trouble with Congress was that
there were ''too many Byrds." Mr..
Truman thought when he said that
he was having a Confidential CONVEX
satiOn." 1t remained confidential just
as long as it took the men to whom he
talked to get to their hotel. The effect
was highly favorable to Senator Byrd
and damaging to Mr.. Truman in more
ways than one. His friends have not
made things better by their strained
explanations, the last and lamest of
which is that the President was speak
ing humorously. Very soon after that
Mr. Truman held another confidential
conversation" with a congressman
from Wisconsin who began to apollo
gize for the senators from his State.
ooh" said Mr.. Truman, in effect,
"they are pretty bad but not the
worst. The worst pair are from Mis-
souri, and the next worst from Indiana.
III grant you Wisconsin is third"
Well, that stayed confidential until the
congressman met newspaper friend
from his home State Now it isn't con-
fidential at all 1t did not receive the
publicity of the Byrd incident because
the criticized senators did not have
the same national prominence. But
it has been published in a number of
papers, and it can be stated that the
Messrs. Donnell and KEN, of Mis-
souri,; Capehart and Jenner, Of lndi-
ana; Wiley and Mccarthy, of Wiscon-
sin, are not unaware of it. These are
all Republicans, it is true, but Mr..
Truman's confidential comments are
we'll calculated to make them personal
as well as political enemies.
The third incident was a 'confiden-
tial' letter written by Mr.. Truman
to a labor leader which did not stay
confidential more than a short while.
It's contents were construed as a
criticism of Mr.. Truman's House sup
porters for compromising on his de
mand for outright TaftHartley re
peal One of these was Speaker Sam
Rayburn, of Texas, who had led the
Truman fight in the House and the
Truman letter was said by unfriendly
writer's to be slap" at Mr.. Ray
burn A considerable stink was stirred
up and the White House issued a de-
NAL that any slap" had been aimed
at anyone This denial was accompa-
MED by the rather weird explanation
that the uncomplimentary interprc-
tation was based on Typographical er-
rors.
As such incidents accumulate, an
i'll will that is entirely unnecessary
increases. Mr.. Truman is a simple
and sincere man. He has strong likes
and dislikes. He loves to speak his
mind freely to those he considers
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1949-06-16

This grim and lonely discipline en-
gendered by one of the great rulers
of men is, perhaps, much too drastic
to apply to Presidents in this country
and in these times. Nevertheless
President Truman undoubtedly would
benefit if he should grasp the entirely
sound idea back of this age-old pre-
cept. For a considerable portion of his
present troubles stems from his fail
ure to understand that except rarely
a President cannot afford to say or
write things confdentially and in pri-
waite he would not say OF write pub
licly. Other men may be blunt and
outspoken when surrounded by friends
but not a President-anyhow, not
without risk.

THE GREAT
GAME OF POLITICS
(Reprinted By Special Permission)
Amenemhat Was Right
BY FRANK r. KENT

In the interesting pamphlet on the
Gulbenkian collection issued by the
National Gallery of Art and written
by Mr.. John Walker, chief curator,
Amenemhat l, the great Twelfth
Dynasty King Of ancient Egypt, is
quoted as follows: BE on thy guard
against subordinates; approach them
not and be not alone. Trust not a
brother, know not friend and make
not for thyself intimates that profteth
nothing. If thou sleepest, do thou,
thyself, guard thine heart. For IN
the day of adversely man hath no
adherents."
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1949-06-16

One of the residents of Oakland
who can remember more of the people
of the bygone era than most anyone
else is William A. Sturgiss, pharma-
cist since May 10, 1896 That is the
date when fate decreed that he be a
pharmacist instead of a physician
which he originally set out to be.
Born in Morgantown, w. Va, Oc-
tober u, 1872, William A. came to
Oakland with parents, Mr. and Mrs.
A. G. Sturgiss, in 1873 and has re-
manned here since that time. The
Sturgiss pharmacy was originally in
the area where the Manhattan hotel
now stands, but later moved to Alder
street, west of the present building.
