PUBLICITY KNOWS NO LINES

@#@F#H# #slN #8#@3
VER NOW and again some talk arises about restrict
ing publicity surrounding certain people. Whenever umfavor-
able publicity, or what is considered such, goes in given d-
rectlons, friends, relatives, acquaintance, and what have YOU,
jump to the SO called rescue and lash out with unkind words.
The AVIS long experienced this attack, but stopped long
enough to look at the matter squarely in the face, to analyze it,
and then take the stand which seemed proper regardless Of
whether that stand was popular or not.
TIL IDEA Of protecting certain people from what is
called or considered unfavorable publicity is not new, and
goes back to the old world. In America the pendulum is
wrung the other way, and since the reading public demands
facts and information, and periodicals at the same time are
anxious to please their public, nothing and no one is spared.
All publicity must, however, remain within the bounds Of pro-
prety, since the law protects individuals from such publicity
as is d~efamatory and lbellous.
THE LOCAL attitude is one which has not kept pace
with the rest Of the world, and as one famed local writer once
put it, our ceiling of insult is low, so that what is taken in
stride elsewhere becomes the basis for much dissatisfaction.
here. If a murder, for example, has been committed, then the
accused and those about him resent the publishing Of even a
police report, and anger looms everywhere. And the same
holds for most types. OF course, if there is something which
certain people feel should be shouted to the world, then the
other extreme must be met as abuse and everything else BIT
ter is thrown at the paper. And that takes place even if the
most favorable comment is made, but the trouble may be
either that enough space has not been given, or the requisite
number of superatives printed.
IN THIS enlightened and advanced day people should
strive to keep pace with what is normal all over the world. 1t
is most unfortunate if some citizen commits an act which runs
afoul Of the law, and sanctions are required, but if he does,
then that act becomes public property, and publicity cannot
be withheld simply because that citizen might consider him
self above such. # he did not care for the unfavOrable publ
city, then he should act accordingly.

WASHINGTON, (P)-The gov ernment's cost of living index to- day rose to a new all-time high. Nearly a million workers whose wage contracts are tied to the rise and fall of the index will receive a pay hike or two to three cents an hour.

 It was O.2 per cent higher than the previous peak of 174.5 in Au- gust and September, 1948.

YES, There IS A
CATHOLIC ATTITUDE

He pointed out the right
use Of money and the moral
obligations of the wealthy.
Of course, Christ said
nothing about Commun-
ism, Trade Unions, or
Capitalism. These ques-
tions did not then exist.
But certainly to us they
are every bit as important
Evening star., 1950-04-02

Religion is more than a Sunday
morning affair - it affects every
moment of your daily life. Life is
made up of actions, one right after
the other - and these actions are
either good or bad. Religion gives
us the moral standards to Judge
whether these actions are right or
wrong!
Its question of right OF wrong
it concerns religion-if an en-
ployer deprives his laborersof their
just wages :. if a selfish group
corners" the market and works
hardships on others if a union
calls a strike that will cripple the
whole country's economy.
This is where the Catholic A.
titude comes in. The Catholic
Church would be failing its duty
if it did not apply the law of God
to the many problems that besee
today's world.
When Christ lived among men,
they learned from Him the Chris
tian attitude toward the social
questions with which they were
faced. He refused to meddle in
mere politics, but He was careful
to tell rulers not to exceed their
authority. He warned Plate that
he had no right to commit injus-
tioe for the sake of expediency. He
rebuked hypocrites who took ad-
vantage of widows and orphans.

as those on which He spoke to
the men of His day. And His voice
is needed now to speak with the
same authority for the solution of
our difficulties.
Christ established His Church to
teach all men to observe all that He
had commanded to direct them
in the religion of everyday life.
1t is for this reason we find the
Apostles criticizing the intolerance
of their fellow-countrymen and
proclaiming the equality of the
Gentle converts. We see St. Paul
writing in great detail of the obi
cations of masters and servants, of
husbands and wives. From St. Peter
we learn about taxpaying and the
obedience we owe to civil authori-
ties. The Catholic Church contin-
ues this tradition today by express
ing its attitude on the basically
moral problems of modern society.
You will find it well worth your
while to investigate the Catholic
Attitude or matters that vitality
concern us all: on Industry and
Labor :. Race and Color. Liberal
ism, Democracy and Communism.

A WOMAN OF MEANS

A WOMAN OF MEANS
BY Peter Taylor. fHarcourt.
Brace & Co.: $2.75J
Brief. but by no means slight,
Peter Taylor's first novel traces
the tragic consequences of a mar
riage Of convenience. The story
is told through the eyes Of
Quintus Dudley. aged II, whose
widowed father married q wealthy
woman for the sake of his son.
The woman admits that one Of her
reasons for marrying was to get
the boy. Quintus and his step
mother are delighted with each
other. and 1t is only when he
realizes that he is an individual
with life quite apart from hers
that her long insecurity and de-
spair Of ever being loved for her
self begins to obsess her.
The germ Of the novel was
contained in q memorable short
story in the New Yorker some
while back. Mr.. Taylor has de-
veloped 1t into q finely wrought
minor tragedy.

But the product was the main

Men Without Faces" is the in
triguing title Mr.. Budenz chose
to give this book detailing what
he describes as the Communist
conspiracy to overthrow this Gov
eminent and impose on the United
States a Soviet-dictated regime
AS the title suggests, the book
undertakes to expose the little
known and seldom seen men be-
hind the Communist conspiracy
and to detail their devious work.
ings. AS an expose, however, the
book leaves something to be de-
sired. Mr.. Budenz strives might
lily, even sensationally, to live up
to his purpose. But his output,
for the most part. succeeds only
in being monumentally dull, con-
fusing and uninformative.
All this is unfortunate. Hardly
a person who knows anything at
all about Communist machina-
tions is unaware of their violent
revolutionary nature. Even the
casual reader of Marxist-Stalinist
writings knows without being told
repeatedly by Mr.. Budenz that the
Communist Party is and always
has been committed to the doc
trine of world revolution. What
we need to have is a better under
standing of how the Communists
are seeking to bring all this about
and Mr.. Budenz. by his dime

cisely that desirable explanation.
The author approaches that

infiltration of key industries and
labor and another dealing with
the Communist penchant for set

They are by far the more valu-

Easy on baltimore.
But the reader will find that
Mr.. Budenz, owing to the limita-
tions of libel laws, is much less
interesting as a writer than he
is as witness testifying with i'm
from legal action before
congressional committees. There
is. for example. only a passing
of Owen baltimore and
no suggestion of the sensational
testimony the author gave against
him in the recent Senate hearings.
He claims he has the names of
400 or more concealed Commu-

and. presumably. as public officials.

he adds: But Roosevelt enor-

dishonesty in some
personal relationships, lack of
frankness, love of improvisation,
garrulousness, cheerful vindic-
tivenesS." Despite his brilliance,
Mr.. Roosevelt was not a profound
thinker, Mr.. Gunther concludes,
and the Presidents thinking was
as superficial and vague on re-
ligion as on many other subjects.
Concerning the Yalta Confer
ence, cited so often by. anti
Rooseveltians as the genesis of the
Soviet march into Eastern Europe
and China, Mr.. Gunther points
out, not without logic. that Mr..
Churchill, whom no one ever ac-
cused of Communist sympathy,
agreed to everything Mr.. Roose-
velt did. They both were fooled
badly, Mr.. Gunther admits. He
says Alger Hiss, recently convicted
of perjury, was at Yalta only as a
technical adviser and had no part
whatever in decisions of policy.
