Mr.. Boyle Bows Out

So far as the record shows, William M.
Boyle, jr, now preparing to resign as chairman
Of the Democratic National Committee, has done
nothing illegal. And Mr.. Boyle himself insists,
further than this, that he always conducted
himself honorably and with propriety. Perhaps
Mr.. Boyle fully believes this. If so, the fact
testifies to the dulling of ethical concepts that
comes to political party leaders after too many
years of political power
In his letter to the President, Mr. Boyle
gives failing health as the reason for his decision
to resign. Since he has repeatedly stated that he
had no intention of resigning, this will not be
accepted as anything more than pleasant ex-
planation of why he is giving up his party post.
There has not yet been any reply from Mr..
Truman The customary Dear Bill" letter, if
written, has not been made public. Perhaps this
means that the President no longer feels that
there was nothing wrong with the things Mr..
Boyle did, and this, If true, would be taken as
healthy awakening on Mr. Trumans part.
Last August Mr.. Truman announced that he
had examined the facts concerning Mr.. BoyleS
alleged" relationship to RFC loans to the
American Lithofold Corp. "The facts have OBJ
tained," the President declared indicate that
Mr.. Boyle had nothing to do with the approval of
these loans by the RFC."
Mr.. Truman did not say what facts he had
obtained or who furnished them to him. Suisse
quent testimony before a Senate committee,
however, gave quite a different picture This
testimony revealed that Mr.. Boyle, while an
unpaid official of the Democratic National Com
mittee phoned the chairman of the RFC and
asked him to see "some friends of Jim Finnegan."
The meeting was held and the RFC then ap
proved loan to Lithofold that had been turned
down on two previous occasions. Mr.. Boyle had
been on the Lithofold payroll. And "Jim" Ffnne-
gan emerges as the St. Louis collector of internal
revenue, now indicted on charges of bribery and
misconduct in Office.
Presumably Mr.. Truman did not know these
details when he said the facts he had obtained
indicated that Mr.. Boyle had nothing to do with
the approval of the Lithofold loan. This may be
why the President has not written the usual
friendly letter to Mr.. Boyle. But if this is the
case if Mr.. Truman was mised when he made
his August statement, he ought to say so.

New Interest in an Old Problem

Representative Wolcott of Michigan, shocked
by the filthy condition of the Potomac River in
the vicinity of Alexandria, proposed a special
investigation of the problem by House group.
Not much investigation is needed to find the
sources of the trouble, however. The sources are
not only in Alexandria but in neighboring
Arlington and across the river on the District
side. From all three of these areas raw sewage
is dumped, untreated, or only partially treated,
in huge quantities every day of the week. Alex
andria has no ge-disposal facilities except
the river itself Arlington has an inadequate
plant. The Districts plant is not sufficient for
immediate needs
But the problem is not being ignored on
either side of the Potomac fortunately. Vir-
ginia's State Water Control Board is gravely
concerned about the near-septic conditions in
the Washington Alexandria stretch of the river
and has cracked down with all it's power on
Alexandria, Arlington and Fairfax. All have
been warned that they must act promptly to
abate pollution. The Virginia communities have
Joined in sponsoring an engineering survey to
determine the feasibility of joint disposal facil-
tiles. In the meantime, Arlington is going ahead
with another treatment plant and Fairfax has
authorized construction of its first sewage
disposal plant. Alexandria is ready to proceed
when results of the survey are known. The Dis
trict is expanding it's plant.
OF course, one way to abate pollution is to
stop building new apartments and homes. But
the urgent need for housing in the Metropolitan
Area makes such a drastic step impracticable.
The alternative solution Is the one now being
followed-the planning and construction as
rapidly as possible of additional sewage treat
ment facilities. If the House inquiry can spur
action along this line, 81 much the better.

Truck Driver VS.. Police

taU$N DINCt Va OuNS
Any one who thinks the sentiments
am about to express are revolutionary,
is absolutely correct. They are the same
devilish ideas that inspired the greatest
revolution in history-that Of 1776.
My inspiration is the story of the
truck driver who disputed the right of
way with an off-duty policeman, SO ably
and wittily reported in the Sunday Star
Whether or not the truck driver was
guilty Of assault, and If so in what
degree, is a minor issue for the courts
to decide. The major issue is whether
the American people are to tolerate
under the Constitution privileged semi
military class who can obtain the right
of-way at any time, under any circum-
stances, by displaying their badge of
rank. or caste mark.
The bare facts seem to be that Ernest
Bailey, a truck driver. became involved
in a traffic argument with another pri
vate citizen, Howard Lewis. In the
course of the argument, Bailey lost his
temper and punched Lewis in the nose.
Lewis, losing his temper also. pulled
gun, whereupon Bailey did what a lot
If we had the nerve. He took the gun
away from Lewis and kept it. instead
of standing with his finger in his mouth
waiting to be killed.
In my opinion, perverted as 1t is by
such subversive writings as the Declara-
ton of independence. the Constitution
and the Bill Of Rights, the fact that
Lewis made his living as a hired guard
ian of the peace (when he was working
at it, has no bearing on the case, be-
cause he was of duty at the time.
But there is also the Brahminical
view. BY this Interpretation, Ernest
Bailey, a sudra, is charged with striking
in the face Howard Lewis, Kshatriya,
and therefore two castes above him,
nay, three if Lewis happens to be white.

ator LaFollette, by his isolationalistic
approach to United States foreign policy,
was undoubtedly in error, but it does
not follow that conviction for ones
principles can be lightly dismissed as
"smearing" the Government.
A prominent American historian has
characterized LaFollette as unique, not
because Of his courage but rather for
his realism, his disillusioned skepticism,
his fierce zeal for facts - Perhaps
within these words case may be made
for an ironic comparison of Mccarthy
LaFollette similarities. Evidently Sen
ator Mccarthy also has fierce zeal for
facts. However, 1t would seem that, un-
like LaFollette, Senator Mccarthy ar
rives at his conclusions first and then
later, haphazardly and at random. Sc
lects those facts which contribute to
the support of his thesis.
AS resident of Wisconsin, sincere
ly hope that Republican with sufficient
integrity and stature, such as Governor
Kohler, will choose to oppose Mccarthy
in 1852. Then. and only then, will many
Wisconsin voters have the opportunity
to even hope for the defeat of the
present Senator. It is certainly a sad
commentary on American politics when
a Republican Congressman from Wis
consin is purported to have written
that he could not agree with Senator
McCarthy's attack on General Marshall.
but. as it appeared that Senator Nc
Carthy would secure the Senatorial
nomination without stiff opposition,
Republicans in Wisconsin would be
working for their best interests by not
attacking him because of his conduct.
This type Of party loyalty. in my opin-
ion, is particularly repugnant to the
ideals Of American democracy.

Sky Map in the MAKING

The public has heard about the telescopes
Of Palomar and Mount Wilson, but thus far it
has seen few, if any, of the results of their oper-
alton. Now the National Geographic Society and
the California Institute of Technology have
announced in effect that "sky survey" is being
made. Nearly one-third of the heavens visible
from the United States already have been photo
graphed and recorded out to a distance of $50
million light years.
The completed atlas will cover the sky as far
south as the latitudes of Buenos Aires and
johannesburg. Turbulence in the earths atno-
sphere precudes picturing sky areas farther
south Three-fourths of the entire heavens
nevertheless will have been mapped by the time
the job ends. The 48-inch big Schmidt" tele-
scope, which "sees" both far and wide, is being
used by Astronomer Albert G.. Wilson in the
making of 14-by-14-inch plates through red and
blue filters. About 1000 separate exposures will
be needed to give an overall impression of the
sky panorama under study. Each plate must pass
rigid inspection. Poor weather and small defects
in the Photographic emulsion result in the scrap
ping of from % to 33 per cent of the takes.
Such losses are unavoidable. The average of
approved plates is higher than might be expected,
considering how many chances of failure are
involved
Every individual plate is being examined by
Palomar and Mount Wilson staff members for
new and distant celestial objects to be inveSti-
gated further through the giant 200-inch Hale
telescope on Palomar Mountain. Nebulosites
hitherto unrecorGed, both in our own galaxy,
the Milky Way. and in more remote reaches Of
space have been discovered and are scheduled
for additional study. The whole sky atlas, when
it is ready for distribution, is expected to set
astronomical standards and guideposts for
astronomers for century or more. It also will
postulate problems for them to solve. In terms
of philosophy it is bound to enlarge the concep-
tions of the lay public concerning the cosmos
in which our planet is only tiny fragment of
mutable matter. The beautiful photographs
