BoseboIFs New Commissioner

Organized baseball has sidestepped an estab-
lished principle in electng Ford Prick to succeed
Happy Chandler as commissioner of baseball The
principle, adopted with the choice of the first
GEAR" Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands, was
that the sport should be supervised by r1an
from outside the field of professional baseball
The principle was good one in the days when
baseball was struggling to rid itself of the ugly
stigma of the BLACK Sox" scandal. Thanks to
Judge Lands the stigma was removed and base
ball in recent years has been free of gambling
vices such as have befouled college basketball
Baseball ought to be able to keep its own skirts
clean from now on.
Mr.. Prick is good man to take over the job
of bossing the big leagues. While not former
major league player The played first base on
semipro team many years ago., he has been close
to the game since entering newspaper work in
the sports department after World War 1. AS
sports writer for several papers and as radio
commentator he followed baseball with such en-
thusiasm that his official alliance with the game
later was not surprising. He has been president
of the National League since 1884. Professional
baseball has chosen Nan able leader.

Environment
By Bruce Barton

Did you read how tenderly the judge
passed sentence on Mickey Cohen, the
gambler and gang leader in Los Angeles
the man that Senator Kefauver called
"a contemplate little punk? The judge
put the blame on poor Mickey's child
hood environment.
I was talking about it one evening
with my friend, Joe Madden, who runs a
restaurant in midtown Manhattan.
first met Joe through my children, for he
is a special friend of college youngsters.
He keeps their secrets, lends them money,
refuses to let them have too much to
drink. He has been best man at their
weddings and godfather to their chill
dren His alumni and alumnae are lead
ing citizens in towns all over the land.
AS we were talking, found myself
wondering al out Joe. Why, I thought,
hadn't he become Mickey Cohen? The
two men came out of the same sort OF
slums. They had the same environment.
=. Suddenly Joe himself answered the
question.
Environment" he snorted. Don't
give me that environment stuff. I'm sick
of hearing about environment. Sure,
was put in an orphan asylum when I
was g. Nothing the matter with that.
They treated me good, taught me to say
my prayers sent me to mass.
And l was prizefighter, too. Al
ways tough jobs in the toughest part OF
town. -Four of the kids I growed up
with went to the electric chair. Too
bad, you say. Must a been their en-
vironment.
Nuts! What about the other hundred
or more that growed up to be good re-
spectacle people-even lawyers, some of
EN-, and doctors. They had the same
environment.
you know what I think? There's
too much mush in this country. We got
fine schools, amt we? They teach kid
what's right We got fine churches.
But if a guy goes wrong, they holler
environment.
Whats become of the old idea of
personal responsibility? Amt there no
such thing no more? Has the Govern
ment got to do everything? Amt no
one supposed to do nothing for himself?
Nuts! ! say! Nuts!"
I'm afraid agree with Joe. I suppose
it's easy for me to do so; was lucky
enough to be brought UP in a happy
nome. My father was preacher. But
Joe speaks with an authority that even
the sociologists can't ignore. He now
is successful businessman. Instead of
being gambler like Mickey Cohen, he
spends his spare time writing books on
the characters" about town. Instead
OF heading gang, he heads q big
Christmas drive every year for poor
children.
In his own very small way, he is some
thing like boy who was born in this
country over 140 years ago. The boy
was ill-fed, il-clothed, ill-housed If a
Committee of Bleeding Hearts had Wis
tied that boys childhood home, they
would have filled him with so much
self-pity that he would have given UP
all hope of useful life.
But all he ever knew about his early
environment was that it was something
to be licked. His name was Abraham
Lincoln.

Justice Is On Trial

The sudden collapse of New York States case
against 10 Brooklyn police officers accused of
graft has alarming implications. The cause of
law enforcement has been dealt blow that is
bound to impair public confidence in it and to
encourage those who dare to defy the law The
disgracefully contemptuous refusal Of the pros
ecutions key witness to name the policemen
he had paid for protection" the SNUG smiles
with which some of the indicted officers greeted
the refusal, the vague charge by the district
attorney that the witness, Gambler Harry Gross,
had been silenced by bribe-all combine to
make sordid picture of frustrated justice.
The State of New York had built the police
graft charges into what appeared to be an open
and-shut case Gross had talked freely to the
grand jury which indicted the policemen. He
had admitted paying out 81 million year in
graft for immunity from police interference with
his bookmaking operations He testified without
hesitation at the trial until he was asked to name
the officers whom he had bribed. Then he
stopped abruptly, announcing that he would
answer no more questions. Judge Leibowitz went
to extraordinary lengths to try to force the
witness to continue, but was met only with
sarcastic and contemptueus refusals. Gross at
one time said he feared for his life and for the
safety of his family. He declined to say whether
he had been threatened, however.
without Gross the State had no case, and
dismissal of the indictments against the police
men followed. The officers cannot be tried again
on the same charges But dismissal of the
charges will not clear the officers as far as the
public is concerned. Only fair trial could have
done that. If they are innocent, their chance
to vindicate themselves has evaporated with the
indictment. Only the guilty could benefit by such
a defeat of justice as has occurred in this case.
And the case is not closed. 1t cannot be closed
until thorough investigation has been made OF
District Attorney McDonald's information that
Gross was paid $4,000 not to testify Justice,
not merely Gross-a relatively unimportant
characters on trial in this shocking case.

Spires of the Spirit

Preserving precious documents which
guarantee the peoples liberties is one of
the sacred tasks of the Nation. OF
course, such holy archives must be kept
from the impious hands of vandals and
of avowed enemies of the state. It was
we'll, when the Redcoats threatened
Americas newly founded Capital on the
Potomac. that the cherished Declaration
and Constitution were hidden for while
in an idle grist mill across the river and
later concealed farther south in old
Virginia. Even during World War II
these priceless documents were buried in
a Kentucky vault. But greater dam
ger than destruction or mutilation by
violence and malice always has put in
leopard these revered emblems which
Nation of free men has regarded with
reverential awe almost akin to that
which the ancient Hebrews had for the
Ark Of the Covenant.
An increasing peril has been that
deterioration would dim them beyond
recognition. The powers of the air.
were against them. Signs of inner decay
have been manifest for many years.
Disturbing fear has haunted the minds
of the keepers of the shrine that Times
remorseless impartiality in turning all
things to dust finally would accomplish
gradually and silently what no visible
force could do. For. needless of the i'm
pressive exhibit set up in the marble
columned Library of Congress, insidious
battalions of disintegration were carry
ing out their destructive mission. Then,
more than decade ago, after a scien-
tific survey strategy of protection was
adopted by ingenious patriots. Now it
is assured, SO far as human eyes can
peer down the vista of the coming years,
that the generations following still may
view the original documents which are
the charters of their freedom. AS the
Librarian of Congress declares:
Every resource of science and tech
nology has been applied in the effort to
make these precious documents as per-
manently secure as the principles they
proclaim"
1t was fitting, indeed. that in the
presence of great throng the Declara-
ton and the Constitution in their new
containers. immersed in helium gas for
new lease of earthly Immortality,
should be sealed with pomp and cere-
mony as the eyes of the Republic were
upon those hallowed scrolls. While the
