ed that as courageous, considering Drapers current difficulties.
 But Sullivan went further: He tried to give Draper a clean bill of health That involved issues now in the Connecticut court in the case of Draper and Adler vs. Mrs. Mccullough. Ed Sullivan was, in fact, publicly testifyiz-g in that case. He said that he had checked Draper's record with Government officials, whom he did not name, and he found the record good. But Cassini, Pegler, Lewis, Cunning ham, Dr. J. B. Matthews and I have said that their record of as sociation with subversive organiza- tions is large and important.
 I, for one, do not know these men, I have seen them perform and have once spoken to Adler for a moment at a performance of his at the Waldorf Astoria. I bear them no malice. But the issue in their case in Connecticut is very important. Upon it hinges the right 70 protest without fear.
 Therefore, 3hen Ed Sullivan, in his reply to protests, raised the issue of the veracity of all of us in the Mccullough case I must ask him to make public which Govern ment agency said that the data on the Attorney-G list or the House Committee on un-American Activities list, or the California Penney Committees list are untrue. Ed Sullivan owes it to all of us to explain his source of informa- tion, as we have all given ours.
 The Ford Company's first eXplan- ation is equally unfortunate. They took the position that they are not concerned with the politics of their artists. That has been the policy for years of many industrial ists and most advertising agencies.
 They poured millions of dollars into the fight for what they call private enterprise" But they have also financed programs on the air which carried to millions of listen- CTS attacks on the very system they sought to maintain and upon which their business thrived.
 The result, of course. was that business, industry, the private en- terprise system for years was at tackled and abused on radio. It is their business if they want to do it that way, but one would have inn agined that after so many years of being abused, they would have learned something.

 Driving of piles the mill site started yes terday and in about two month the mill will be in operation.
 There is enthusiasm in town for the new project enthusiasm needed after the disastrous fire that destroyed the Juneau Spruce Corporation last August
 The fire, disastrous to the company and to the town, the largest and worst that Juneau had ex- perienced in ten years and both the company and town suffered as the result-the company by the destruction of it's property and the town by the loss of its largest industrial payroll.
 The new mill when it starts operation in April will not be large as the former sawmil But this is just start. One shift of 25 men producing 30,000 to 10000 board feet of lumber will be employed for

GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY A SPACIOUS DEFENSE

Curious things have been said in the controversy over Ed Sullivan's championship of Paul Draper on the Columbia Broadcasting Systems television, and Ed Sullivan's ap- parent apology does not change the issues.
 Paul Draper is a dancer who us- ually is accompanied on the har- monica by Larry Adler. Both of them got into a difficult situation with Mrs. Hester Mccullough of Greenwich, Connecticut. Draper and Adler were on a program in that city; Mrs. Mccullough pro- tested on the grounds that their names were on lists of organizatiT IS which the Attorney General and the House Committee on un-Amer- ican Activities had declared sub versive Draper and Adler sued her for libel to the tune of S200,000.
 Igor Cassini, who writes under the name of Cholly Knickerbocker, picked up the story Westbrook Peg Ter, Fulton Lewis, Jr., Bill Cum ningham and I followed suit. Pegler and I made an appeal for funds to aid Mrs. Mccullough and raised about S23 GOO for her. The case IS still pending.
 Then Larry Adler and Paul Drap- er discovered that public resis- tance had developed to their ar tistic appearances. Meanwhile, Paul Drarer's mother, Muriel Draper went off to Moscow where she in- dicated an attitude toward the

Plane Dictator

Yet the plane mysteriously left the Wadesboro airport on it's own power. and the Danish Government is reported trying to buy it-with the idea of flying it.
 The Babb Company seems to have bought the plane from a CAP of ficial. R. A. Lyon, who hadn't read the fine print in the contract. The CAP doesn't recognize the deal, however because Lyon is no long CT member Even Lyon is sorry about it and tried to return the money but the Babb Company wouldn't take it back
 In the meantime, the Mark Hurd Mapping Company of Minneapolis has been trying to buy a surplus B-17 to aid in charting Army maps. The priorities are in order and the money is in the bank-but no B-17s have been available.
 Meanwhile, at Newark, N. J., the Babb Company admits it has pur- chased three B-17s from "educa- tional institutions" sold one of them to Dictator Trujillo of the Dominican Republic. The other two will probably be sold to France and Denmark. Furthermore, the Babb Company has done big busi- ness in single-engine Air Force training" planes, selling 200 to the Chinese Nationalists, 75 to the Swedes, 75 to the Dutch, 40 to the Swiss, 20 to the Jews and an as- sortment to other countries.
 The. State Department has given its approval for all these exports the Babb Company claims-even though the original contract grounds the B-17 and restricts its use to educational purposes oI scrap.
 Note-For these B-17s, the Babb Company gets as high as S25,o00 depending upon the improvements though the Army sells them for s35O.

MESSAGE BY
SENATOR FREAR
Weekly Message From United
States Senator Frear To
People of Delaware
EXPRESSES VIEWS

United States Senator ]. Allen
.Frear has urged pelawareans to
pray that peace with justice may
be quickly restored to the world.
In an independence Day mes
sage, Senator Frear proposed that
the 4th of July be observed as a
period of "rededication to the
cause of righteousness"
mo one can say what the next
few weeks or even days may
bring" Senator Frear said. Many
are concerned lest the present out
break of fighting in Korea be the
beginning of the third world war;
''It is my earnest hope" he contin-
ued, "that this is not the case, and
that the Korean incident can be
quickly and effectively brought to
a close"
However" Mr.. Frear went on,
though we are confident of vic
tory, the price of our impending
success is costly. American men
have died during the past week de-
tending democracy, and before or
der is restored on that remote AS
iatic peninsula, others will pay the
supreme penalty"
The Senator declared that the
names of these young Americans
are the newest to be added to our
long list of military heroes. 1T is

but for the independence and lib

said.
Surely it is overwhelmingly evil
dent that Democracy will last only
as long as We are willing to pre-
serve it." Mr.. Frear warned. Time
and time again in the past $50
years our nation has been put to
the test. Always we have met The

ed, that in this hour of uncertain
ty, America will stand forth as a
shining symbol of goodness in a

cation to the Veterans Administra-

Its income last year was
$1,692.90, which breaks down as
follows: Paid membership. $397.50;

$1,000; receipts from show Spon-

Left over from the previous season
as profit was $393.28 which, plus
the $69.61 profit for the 1949-50
season, starts the group off this
year with $462.89 in the bank.
Incidentally, the Falls Church

of its productions, which is more
than it made for itself-a pleasant
specimen of idealism paying of.

"It was a very nice play. I
thought the way they changed

something going on the whole

was mad at John Jay was a little
hard to get. The people were
