LAW:
Held too Brood

The fallacy of attempting to deal
with ideologies through laws has
been highlighted by a Maryland
circuit judge. The judge. Joseph
Sherbow of Baltimore, ruled that
the state cannot punish a person
for what that person thinks.
The opinion was given in a case
involving a state law against peo-
pie who join or work with subver-
sive organizations. 1t was the first
courts test of the new law that re-
quired loyalty oaths by public en-
ployees and candidates for office.
THE supreme court" Judge
Sherbow said in his opinion, has
made it clear that laws may punish
acts and conduct which clearly,
seriously and imminently threaten
substantive evils.
"They (the laWS) may not in
trude into the realm of ideas, re-
ligious and political beliefs, and
opinions. The law deals with overt
acts, not thoughts. 1t may punish
for acting, but not for thinking"
The law which Judge Sherbow
tossed out did not specifically ban
the Communist party. It's preamble
said communism is a dangerous,
worldwide conspiracy that fits
the definition Of subversive activity.
Anything that aims at the over
throw of this government by force
was deemed subversive.
Justice Sherbow said the law was
too general. Declaring it violated
the first, fifth and 18th amend
ments to the constitution, and
Maryland's declaration of rights,
he added:
"As stated by Justice Jackson
Gin a West Virginia case before the
supreme COURT:
IF there is any fixed star in
our constitutional constellation, it
is that no official, high or petty, !
can prescribe what shall be ortho-
dox in politics.. nationalism, relig-
ion or other matters Of opinion,
Dr. force citizens to confess by word
Dr. act their faith therein"
Laurel outlook., 1949-08-24
MACARTHUR:
Problem for Truman

No matter how the Truman ad-
ministration plays it, Gen. Douglas
Macarthur is a tremendous public
relations problem.
THE GENERAL has twice de-
clined the invitation to appear be-
fore senate committees, the second
refusal being in connection with a
bid to come home and tell a probe
group what he thinks about the
Chinese situation. The general re-
piled that he thought he could do
better staying in Japan.
Of course, President Truman
could order the general home. but
if he did so, and Macarthur &C
copied the order, both the White
House and the state department
would be in a constant case Of
filters over what the 69-year-old
prima donna might say in speeches
throughout the country.
If the President chooses not to
order the general home, then his
critics will have fuel for added
clamor that Macarthur is being
isolated and prosecuted.
APPARENTLY, no one seems to
know the procedure in the event
Macarthur refused to come home
II ordered. There seems to be a
prevalent conviction that Mac
Arthur can stay in Japan forever,
If he so chooses.
There are those who say for the
general to make that decision
would be a typical Macarthur
gesture and that it would fit in
superbly with his fine sense Of the
dramatic.

STALIN:
Very Courteous"

The delayed report on how U. S.
Ambassador Alan Kirk made out
with Russia's Joe Stain in a talk
in Moscow held nothing more i'm
portant than Kinks report that the
Soviet ruler was very courteous
and pleasant" However, anyone
who might have expected anything
else was indulging in wishful think
ing.
SOME EXCITEMENT was slim
ulated by Kinks refusal to COM
ment Immediately upon his inter-
view with Stain. He told reporters
following the conference that he'd
have something to say later.
The ambassador, a retired ad-
miral and former envoy to Bel
GUM, held the first meeting with
Stain that any American official
has had in nearly a year. He de-
scribed his visit to Stain as a
Courtesy CALL"
