The Man Who Made the Supreme Court

moved to Washington in 1900. His
appointment as Chief Justice climaxed 10
years Of public service. He continued
as both Secretary of State and Chief
Justice until March 4, 1901, the only
man in the history of the Government
ever to occupy these two Offices at the
same time.
In 1903 came his decision in the case
of Marbury VS.. Madison, in which
Marshall established the power Of the
Supreme Court to set aside law IT con-
sidered out of harmony with the Con-
stitution. This was the first of an amaz-
ing cavalcade of decisions and opinions
giving luster to the Court and at the
same time increasing the power and
Importance of the National Government.
Marshall, for all his greatness. was
both simple and human. The story is
told that lawyer once sent his young
son to the great mans Office with some
legal papers to be signed. The boy, on
arriving, was much awed, as any boy
well might be in the presence of the
Chief Justice. Marshall said. Billy,
believe can beat you playing marbles"
Five minutes later, the Chief Justice and
the small boy were down on their hands
and knees. hard at 1t.
Marshall died in Philadelphia. in 1885.
The day was July 6. AS his funeral
procession passed slowly along the streets
of that city, the Liberty Bell began
tolling. Suddenly the old bell went mute.
It had cracked. It's historic voice was
gone forever
Strange, yet fitting, that the last notes
OF the Liberty Bell should have been
sounded for John Marshall, who had
fought through bitter years Of struggle
and sacrifice to win the liberty of his
native land, and who then sought to
safeguard that liberty by the most
amazing array of decisions and opinions
in the history of this great Government
under the Constitution

Another General Speaks Up

It has become practically reasonable for
fighting general to mention use of the atom
bomb, and so it may be that Major General
Emmett (Rosie) O'Donnell, who led the first
B-29 raid on Tokyo, faces disciplinary action
for his suggestions as to what should be done in
Korea.
General ODonnell says we should use the
atom bomb against the Chinese Communists,
that we should have hit them presumably in
China) long ago, and that as of today there's
nothing else we can do that will put the hex
on them"
This statement has caused quite f1utter in
Washington. President Truman, through his
press secretary. says the general was not speak
ing for the United States Government General
Vandenberg, air chief of staff, says that "Rosie"
O'Donnell doesn't speak for the Air Force. And
q news dispatch reports that policy makers in
Washington "shudder" at the possible impact
abroad of vigorously phrased comments by
generals.
All of this adds up to the conclusion that
General ODonnell spoke out of turn, which
may be the case It does not by any means
follow however, that he was wrong or mis-
taken in what he said.
It is all right for policy makers to shudder
and for higher echelons to wiring their hands
But the fact remains that we have an army in
Korea which has sustained more than 10000
casualties, and which, at any moment, may f1nd
itself under overpowerng assault by the Chinese
Communists. Surely we have some obligation to
that army and to the young Americans who are
fighting in it, General ODonnell may not know
what he is talking about. Perhaps the atom
bomb would not be an effective weapon against
the enemy. But if by chance he is right. 1t
would be interesting to know just why the higher
authorities should crack down on him as they
su9cked down on General Anderson last sum-

Father Walsh and the Bomb

Some of the opponents of Father
Walshs well thought out statement on
the use of the atomic bomb can whip off
words from Chapter. Verses-to-"
by rote. but let them reflect a bit.
Before the Bible was written and be-
fore the events recorded in the Bible,
except for the account of the Creation,
God had made man and with him, the
natural law. Since both. Bible and ma
tural law. are the words of God, they
cannot be contradictory.
The natural law tells man to preserve
his life. individual or collective So here
We are with "the bomb" fighting an
enemy with millions of troops and pos
sibly Cor probably?) with the same bomb.
Doesn't this sound like a case of self
preservation?
Another critic asks: "Who can pene-
trate the queer process of thinking Of
the brains in the Kremlin?"
In answer. say anyone can, If he
will look effectively at more than three
decades of Communist history.
AS was intelligently noted by another
contributor to the January 8 letter
column, the first blow has long been
struck against us.
The garb Of the aggressor has been
donned. Our raids against Moscow or
Peiping would be only normal tactics
in an already started war.
Robert F. Meier.
was shocked and disguised by the
Walsh article. 1t is a perversion Of the
worst sort to argue that preventive war.
or any kind of war. can be justified by.
or reconciled with, Christian morality.
Churchmen of all faiths have, in recent
times, been all too eager to sell their
religious tenets for a mess of national
istic pottage. If they really praise the
Lord. they had better let others pass the
ammunition.
Charles H. Floyd.
1t is sad commentary on American
intentions when a leading scholar and
churchman like Father Walsh sides with
advocates Of mass atomic murder.

Bombs for the u. N.

What tragedy if the United Nations
organization disintegrates now! Yet we
have seen how Intellectual it is in the
face of determined resistance. What
cement would hold it together? Only
some kind of force sufficient to back its
will. Only atomic force. Let us give
our stock Of atom bombs to the U. N.
What would this accomplish?
l. The U. N. Immediately would outlaw
aggression. Any nation sending armed
troops against another would be given
notice that its cities would be bombed.
2. It would clear us of any suspicion Of
aggression ourselves. It would reassure
the nations that fear we have plans for
world domination. 1t would cut the
ground from under Russian propaganda.
8. With the fear Of war removed. all
other international problems could be
discussed and adjusted around the coun-
Gil table.
While we still have the advantage in
superior atomic weapons, let US place
them in the hands Of a united world to
abolish war itself.

Minor Leagues Score Recall Rule vitfory

COLUMBUS, Dec. ' - R = AL
 though the minor leagues voted
 overwhelmingly to wipe out base
 balls 24-hour recall rule, the stat
 ute will remain on the books, an
 informal poll of the big league
 clubs indicated today. The rule, which President Frank
 Shaughnessy of the International
 League, described as even big
 ger threat to the structure of the minors than nationwide broadcast
 ing and televising of major league
 games" has long been a sore point
 with the little fellows. Their con-
 stant cry has been that the rule
 robs them of their stars and kills
 off the attendance.
 By Al to seven count, the minor leagues voted to toss the rule out the window. This means that a
 player, once sent down. must re-
 main for the entire minor league
 season including playoffs. The
 majors, however, also must pass this amendment in order to kill the rule.
 This, however, does not seem likely unless there is a change of heart between now and next Mon
 day when the vote comes up. The minors, however, won an important point when they voted unanimously to set up a new 'open" classification. This was interpreted as a tremendous victory for the Pacific Coast League which has been clamoring for higher status for years.
 Naturally, Coast Leaguers were iubilant over their victory for spe- cial recognition. With the ap-
 nroyal of the majors, which was expected, they expect to apply
 right away" for the "open" rank, me step higher than Triple A. At the present time there are three Triple A leagues-the International American and PCL.
