small boy, praying very intently.
Sister hastily wrote her note 10
Sister Madonna.
Sister watched in amused and
affectionate silence as the Roy fin
ished his prayer, blew an unself-
conscious kiss to Our Lady, and
turned away. Those magnificent
ears could belong to no one but
Arthur Roberts, and Sister Felice
was very fond of Arthur. She
watched as he walked gravely
across the patio and stood gazing
through a window into the first
grade room. Adam and Eve looking
back through the barred gates of
Paradise could not have appeared
more forlorn. There in that lost
Eden so new firstgraders, who
probably did not even have the
taste to realize their luck dwelt
in happy kingdom ruled over by
Sister Madonna. And, leaving his
heart behind him, Arthur had had
to pass on to the realm of Sister
Augustine.
Sister Feliee could appreciate
the difficulty. She remembered
very clearly, after a lapse of many
years, her own first-grade teacher.
And Sister Madonna was teacher
tc remember, there was no mistake
about that. But children forget and
so, she reasoned, would Arthur.
In this Sister Felice was dead
wrong. There was nothing shallow
or ophemeral about Arthur's love
for Sister Madonna. For Arthur had
supreme dedication. Realizing
that he could never marry fer-he
had il on excellent authority that
Sisters didn't marry-he was firm
Iy resolved that he would never
marry anyone else. True TO hel

principle, at least, was he same:
he would try to be worthy of her.
Sister Feliee finished her note
and went out into The patio. Alone
and palely lettering, Arthur cast a
last wistful glance into the lost
Eden and started to move along.
He stopped in his tracks at the
sound of his own name, and came

Arthur shifted from one foot TO
the other and said, "Yester." He
could not very well tell her he was
making a novena to be put back
in the first grade. So he blushed
and grinned, displaying a one-sided
gap where one tooth was slow in
arriving.
DO you think you could find
Sister Madonna for me?" she
asked.

Controls Communistic?

OF course. would like to buy COM
plete dinner at the Statler for Is cents,
Buick for $1,000 and gasoline for 10
cents a gallon. These fanciful prices
are no more ridiculous than hundreds
established by OPA during World War II.
The fact is that no single man, no
group Of 10 men. nor any board of
hundred can fairly set the prices on the
millions of daily business transactions In
the United States. Only demand and
supply can do that in a free economy.
Neither can Government DEGREES make
the utopian plan Of buying low and SELL
ing high practical. for the very simple
reason that m each transaction there is
both buyer and a sellers Even Gov
ernment employees sell their services to
the Government and the Government is
the buyer of those services.
Price controls and ALLEGATIONS are no
part of the competitive. capitalistic
society that has made America great.
They are the very foundations of COM
munistic states. Hence. it is paradoxical
for us to fight communism abroad and
adopt its basic policies here at home.
Controls do not prevent imitation. At
best, they merely postpone it and make
it worse when the pegs are removed.
Imitation is caused by the Government
spending more than it takes in. An
annual reduction of $40 billion in the
national debt would stop imitation.

as he is held in what may be called
a kindly manner.
The moment he feels harsh inimical
hands on him, he will suddenly come to
life, and put up real battle.
Beware of him then, but at no other
time.
He is one of the forest creatures which
exemplify the old "live and let live"
theory, now so much disregarded the
world around.
If for no other reason. he ought to be
highly regarded and protected; but ac-
tually he is fine, clean animal. good to
look at and to watch. and interesting in
all his habits.
Nothing could be more preposterous
than for city resident, newly moved
to the suburbs, to become alarmed and
call the police at the sight of opossum.
He is entirely harmless. and will do no
damage to house or yard nor to humans
or their pet aniamls.
House cats so well recognize this fact
that they will trail solemnly after an
opossum, keeping about three feet be-
hind him, never offering to touch him.
The opossum, for all his seeming lack
of agility on the ground, is good climb
er, and is usually able to make his way
to safety when attacked by dogs.
Most of their deaths in suburban
areas are due either to natural causes,
poison or automobiles, the last two

This and That

Summer nights may or may not per-
nit one to see an opossum in the sub
urban yard.
There are few sights more engaging
to a nature-loving soul. For there are
few small animals more intriguing.
The possum, as it is usually called
is neither ferocious nor mischieviouS.
The ,raccoon is the fun-loving one.
The possum minds his own business
He is likely to do strange things:
though. and disturb the person who is
not much acquainted with wild life.
The long, naked tail distinguishes
him.
So any suburban householder who
happens to see a long-tailed creature
calmly watching the moon from his
porch roof need not be in the least
afraid.
1t is Just some old possum using the
porch as a sort of tree.
The creature loves to look around, to
watch the night scene, and to keep a
good watchout. perhaps for food.
Chickens, mice. small rabbits and in
sects are some of the foods he likes, but
he will eat almost anything.
h
There is no need for any one to be
afraid of him.
It is he, indeed, who is afraid.
His famous habit Of playing possum"
shows his nature.
He is one of the original performers
of the animal world.

an advisory group set up by the Arlington County

an advisory group set up by the Arlington County
Board
The idea behind the Arlington request is
good one, nevertheless. Chairman O. B. Allen OF
the county PUG wrote: "The District and ad-
jacent areas in Maryland and Virginia form an
economically interdependent Metropolitan Area.
Eff1cient, adequate transit service between the
various subdivisions within the area is as i'm
portant to the economy of each portion OF the
area and to the welfare of residents of each por-
ton as is the adequacy of service within any po-
litical subdivision" That is fair statement OF
the situation existing with respect to mass trans
portation facilities in the District Maryland
Virginia area composing the Greater National
Capital.
Unfortunately, however, there is no single
public utilities agency in the area with overall
Jurisdiction except the Interstate Commerce Com
mission The ICC already has been petitioned to
investigate the regional transportation situation
1t will be surprising, however, If the ICC should
accede to this request, for it has enough to do
without dabbling into local transit problems
But there certainly should be some agency with
er-all authority to handle public utility prob
lens that fall across jurisdictional lines in this
closely integrated metropolitan area. If other
jurisdictions were to agree with Arington's PUG
on the need for a regional study and were to
bring enough pressure on Congress and on the
Maryland and Virginia Legislatures for attention
to the matter compact might result that would
create the overall authority now lacking.

CoIonizing the Moon-Is 1t Legal?

Of "colonizing" the moon, the question
Of ''Is it legal?" would be bound to arise.
Could one nation-or the United Ma
tions for that matter-lay claim to the
moon on the basis of first exploration?
Could the Monroe Doctrine be extended
to the moon or could Moscow proclaim
the satellite a new Soviet Socialist Re-
public? Could the United States even
now claim the moon as American ter
ritory on the basis of having established
radio contact few years ago? Could
admiralty law be applied in litigation in
1olving ships operating outside the earths
atmosphere? And where do We earth
lings stand if Martians or other extra
terrestrial beings already have invaded"
our domain and are using the moon to
spy on us?
Mr.. Ley, among others, has suggested
space platform" few hundred miles
Evening star., 1951-07-16

The fiat truth is that the moon proba-
bly, would be used as military base by
earthmen against the earth.
Just as the longest way round is often
the shortest way home, the big silver orb
a quarter of million miles away would
be better launching platform for long
range rockets than any place on earth.
The reason is all cluttered with high
falutin mathematics, but the fact is that
we already have in the W. rocket that
could be shot from the moon to hit
point on earth with considerable accur-
acy.
And that is more than can be said
for any rocket operating over an earth
to-earth trajectory more than few hun
dred miles long.
An Air Force officer. commenting on
Mr.. Ley's book. observed that the moon
would be an excellent defense installa-
tion." This reasoning, of course, is diff
cult to follow: the moons only possible
military use would be an offensive one.
The moon would have many other uses
aside from military one. but as MIR.
Ley says, "It is always useful to think
of military application, because some
body has to pay for all these develop
ments"
Among the valuable non military pur-
poses to which the moon could be put
are:
!. A research station, taking advan-
tage of vacuums more complete than
any available on earth, any gravity
lighter by six times than that present
here.
2. An astronomical observatory un-
impeded by atmosphere, water vapor and
dust.
3. A cosmic-ray study station.
4. A jumping-off place for rockets to
Mars Venus and beyond.
The moon also might prove fertile
field for international lawyers, though
certainly nothing but litigation could
possibly grow there. Early in the days

Questions About Foreign Affairs

1t is astonishing, even today, to note
the number Of people here, who at men
tion of foreign affairs, will say that we
have enough on our hands keeping do
mestic affairs straight. Yet even they
see relationship between our muddled
affairs. both domestic and foreign. And
over it all hangs the disquieting thought
that in attempting to set the affairs Of
the world straight, through U. N. as well
as through our efforts as an individual
country. and especially in Asia, we seem
to have the bull by the tail with
down-hill drag"
Does the man in the street" know
what our policy is in Iran? Does he
know what will happen If there is an
other Communist offensive in Southeast
Asia. where millions OF dissatisfied peo-
pie live? Does he know that the Indo-
nesian leaders have imperialistic ambi-
tions for an empire Of the Malays, set
afire by the japanese with their Greater
East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere? These
people have had only small taste of
freedom. 1t is proving a heady wine.

recognized on both sides of the iron cur

that 1t is more than likely that the out

to that end she has been vigorously fan

Other Juvenile Court Amendments

Senator Johnston of South Carolina is
chairman of the subcommittee of the Senate
District Committee which will consider amend
ment of the Juvenile Court Act The purpose
of the amendment is to make the Juvenile Court
law conform to Juvenile Court Judge Cockrlls
Interpretation of the law, or vice versa. Senator
Johnston has been busy with other matters.
But in the course of human events he Will get
around to study of the amendment and its
necessity. The matter is locally important ana
hearings should be started soon.
There are other parts of the law which
should be studied for possible amendment BY
curious inconsistency, there appears to be no
way of removing or transferring or getting rid
of Juvenile Court judge-short of misconduct
on the part of the judge AS an example OF this
deficiency, the only expedient that Congress
could find to deal with the unfortunate case OF
Juvenile Court Judge Fay Bentley was to permit
her to remain judge although she is lncapacl-
tated, until her term expires in 1852 In the
meantime a law was enacted adding another
Judge to the court with the provision that there
would be only one judge after Miss Bentleys
term expires. Should Judge Cockrll become
incapacitated the only method of getting per-
manent substitute Judge for Juvenile Court
would be to authorize appointment of third
Judge, until Judge Cockrills term expires
If Juvenile Court Judge is demonstrated
to be lacking in capacity for this very exacting
position consideration should be given to trans
ferring the judges assignment, perhaps to Mu-
nicioal Court While Municipal Court Judge
can be assigned to fill in at Juvenile Court IN
certain contingencies, there seems to pe no way
under the law to transfer or assign juvenile
Court Judge to Municipal Court. When amend
ment of the law is under consideration, the De-
partment of Justice should be asked to make
some comment on the desirability of providing
for such transfer. Removal of Judge OF the
lower courts has always been considered posi-
bilitv. and methods of doing so are provided in
the law pertaining to such courts. But there Is
blank spot in the Juvenile Court law which ought
to be filled in.
AS to the specific amendment now proposed
for the Juvenile Court law, it is to be taken Tor
granted that Senator Johnstons subcommittee
will call on qualified witnesses, including spoKes-
men for the Department of Justice, to testify
as to it's necessity.
