IT'S PLAIN ANARCHY

These acts of violence in this county
and neighboring Preston are just plain
acts Of anarchy and nothing else.
They show positive disregard for
the rights OF others and for lawful
and democratic government.
Those responsible are endangerlng
lives and taking law into their own
hands, just like the wild west days.
Last Thursday the home Of law
abiding citizen was dynamited. Why?
Because he was exercising his privi-
legc as an American citizen to work
where he wanted to work and under
conditions and terms that were salts
factory to him.
Last week at Tunnelton there was
another blast, intended to destroy a
coal tipple and loading dock of the
West Virginia Northern. Instead, two
buildings of Tunnelton high school
were damaged, IS windows were
blown out.
That's democracy at its lowest.

THE GREAT
GAME OF POLITICS
Why Is II A "Tribute"?
BY FRANK R. KENT

The appointment of Mr. Blair
Moody, Washington correspondent of
the Detroit News, as United States
Senator to succeed the late Arthur
Nandenberg did not quite set a precc-
dent, as was proclaimed. At least one
working newspaper man" former
Senator Joe Ball, of Mnnesota-was
previously elected to the Senate. Mr..
Harding, OF course, was the publisher
Of an Ohio newspaper when he be-
came senator. Mr. Vandenberg pub
lished Grand Rapids (Mich) paper
and Senator Byrd owns two news
papers in Virginia.
But publishers, editors and column
nists are not generally regarded here
as working newspaper men" Work
ing newspaper men generally mean
reporters, and Mr.. Moody unquestion-
ably was the first Of the Washington
Working press" to enter the Senate
Certainly, he was good newspaper
man and he is q good fellow. Also, un-
less his known trend toward the ClO,
New Deal, Fair Deal and left wing
grows too pronounced, he ought to
make a good Senator. That does not,
however, explain the extraordinary
reaction OF the corps of correspon-
dents" to his selection nor the con-
siderable editorial comment in the
country.
With some notable exceptions the
view of the correspondents was that
this constituted great tribute to
their profession" Although Gov.
"Soapy" Williams of Michigan is a
recognized Democratic politician and
a close friend Of the bumptious CLOS
Mr.. Walter Reuther, it was curiously

held by some that the Moody APP
pointment was so high an honor to
newspaper men that it not only
should wipe out all the sins the APP
pointing power had committed in the
past and any he may commit in the
future but also entitle him to the
gratitude Of every working news
paper man" everywhere. To such an
extent did this strange feeling exist
that the working newspaper men"
iammed the Senate press gallery
when Senator Moody was sworn in
and through the gracious permission
of the rugged old Kentucky politician,
Mr.. Alben Barley, Justify cheered
their former colleague as he took his
seat.
Well, it is pleasant tor Mr. Moody
to know that the working press" is
glad he got what he wanted. Aside
from that, however, the question
arises as to why the working press"
should feel so highly complimented?
What is there about the United
States Senate to inspire reverence
and admiration among the working
newspaper men" who know the indi-
vidual senators better than anyone
else? 1t is not easy to answer. The
job of the working newspaper press
in Washington is to observe and re-
port on the members of the Senate
day in and day out. Because Of the
character and requirements of their
work the inevitable tendency of work
ing newspaper men is to eXalt the
first-class members of the Senate
But they cannot be completely real
istic about the second, third, fourth
and fifth class members.
In other words, such is the news
paper business that it is almost inn
possible to get clear picture of the
individual senators from the work
ing press" For variety of reasons,
few working newspaper MEN can say
exactly what they think about sena-
tors Of whom they write. What the
first-class working newspaper man
really thinks of those about whom he
writes is not often complimentary.
Of course, there are second, third,
fourth and fifth class newspaper men
just as there are second, third, fourth
and fifth class senators. Nevertheless,
long and close observation Of both
groups inclines one to believe that
the average working newspaper
man" is better bred, has more brains
and more character than the average
senator Also that, as a body, the
working press is superior mentally
and spiritually to Congress, has
higher ethical standards and sounder
ideas.
Largely, this is true because Of
the inherent difference b etw G II
journalism and politics, which would
take more space than is here avail
able to define. For example, to stick
in their business and hold their jobs
NOIhllIS newspaper men NdSdli
with some notable eXceptions) do not
have to practice hypocrisy and in
sincerity without which so many
senators could not politically survive
Nor do working newspaper men
have to be subservient to the pressure
groups of which so many politicians
live in constant fear. Newspaper
men are more free and in their bust
ness it is far easier to retain self
respect.
There is so much data to sustain
this contention that it is hard to I'M
derstand why newspaper men permit

Der Of nations to fight communism.
After all the billions that already have
been spent for this purpose, we find
today that the United States has be

To Answer Questions
By the Associoted Press

NEW YORK, July Is. - Fred
erick Vanderbilt Field, millionaire
leftist now serving a contempt OF
court sentence today was ordered
to tell Federal grand jury who
aided in supplying bail for four
fugitive Communists.
Federal Judge John F. x. Nc
Gohey ruled that Mr.. Fields con-
tention that he was privileged not
to answer the grand jury's ques-
tions "was not claimed in good
faith, and the privilege you claim
does not exist"
The court pointed to a series OF
Is questions Mr.. Field refused to
answer and told Field "you are not
entitled each time you are asked
a question to run out and ask your
lawyer about 1t"
Judge McGohey said Mr.. Field
should answer questions relating
to meetings of the Civil Rights
Congress bail fund trustees, where
its records were kept, who had
them and who contributed to it.
Should he fail to answer he
could be sentenced a second time
for contempt. His present SEN
tence of 80 days followed his re-
fusal to supply the same data to
Federal Judge Sylvester j. Ryan
Judge McGohey also ruled that
Muriel Patterson, the bail funds
bookkeeper. should answer gRnd
jury questions and produce hSoks

PHILADELPHIA, July 25.-The

Mrs. Buchanan had 34,145 votes

Mrs. Buchanan campaigned on
a platform that followed the stand
of her husband Frank, former

porting all of President Truman's
policies.
Mr.. illegal asked for support as
"a protest of all phases OF the

Judge Musmanno of Pittsburgh

Gently by his efforts to jail West
