living is the panacea for the worlds ills.
Irene L. Meid.
Enumerating my schoolmates on my
fingers, one by one, they seemed to have
had more mature and wholesome at
titude toward life and the future than
today's school children. They were much
more respectful and grateful to their
parents, teachers and superiors, and they
were otherwise more democratic and
more amenable. They enjoyed school
more so than today's pupils.
Basically, todays children are no diff
ferent from those of a generation ago
or, as far as that goes. ten generations
ago. Therefore the fault must lie in
this laughingly so-called progressive
education. John D. Michael.
I feel sure that if the course of pro-
gressive education had never been intro
duced into our public schools there
wouldn't be so much complaint about
the present generation.

The pipe at least was clear.
Sometimes smaller birds get caught in
this way dropping down, down, only to
find the pipe goes into a closed system.
1t is, then, curtains for them.
This specimen was more fortunate, or
would he be, after all?
There was bend at the bottom.
Could he make it?
He still was inching his way down.
We could hear the fluttering. the
moment of silence, which became almost
of prayer.
What sort of bird was it?
The sound was odd, coming from in
side the pipe, muff1ed in the open air.
1t came nearer and nearer.
1t became exciting, to think of what
would step forth. if it stepped forth.
A jay, sparrow, perhaps.
Common sparrowS are always getting
themselves into fixes.
Sometimes they get caught in vines,
and there choke to death.
Surely it could not be robin.
No robin, especially the first robin,
would get himself into such prsdiea
ment.

Scandal in Arlington

For the first time in many years, Arlington
County finds itself with a full-blown public
scandal on its hands
Two members of the County Board-Daniel
A. Dugan and F. Freeland Chew-have been
accused by a grand jury of "malfeaSance mis-
feasaf1ce and gross neglect of public duty"
third man, Sam Lano slot machine and pinban
distributor, has been indicted for perjury for
denying that he had made gifts to Mr. Dugan.
The grand jury did not contend that there was
any connection between Mr.. Lano and Mr.. Chew.
In all such cases. the function of grand
jury is to present complaint. The complaints
in this instance may or may not be well founded.
Mr. Chew, who is accused of accepting televi-
sion set given for the purpose of influencing his
official acts, has made categorical denial. The
complaints against Mr.. Dugan are numerous
including a charge of aiding, abetting and
counseling at proposed violations of the laws
against gambling in the State" He, too, has
denied wrongdoing and has branded the action
against him as political trickery" Although the
f1ve-man grand jury apparently was unanimous
in its action, Mr.. Dugan said that this is
hand-picked grand jury composed of at least
three of my most bitter political enemies"
This attack on the grand jury belongs in the
same category with the jury's complaints Judg-
ment on both should be suspended until there
is opportunity to present the supporting evidence
That opportunity will come when the recon-
mended removal proceedings against the two
board members and the prosecution of Mr.. Lano
get under way Then, and only then, will it be
possible to determine whether the accusations
against the individuals concerned are true, or
whether, as Mr.. Dugan claims, the charges add
up to piece of political trickery.

and out-maneuver the Russian economy
If the carnage continues, and we are not
overrun by the enemy, we will live on
the verge of death at all times.
These are not pleasant thoughts. try
to think of them as Pigments of dream
dread imaginings induced by general
war hysteria. They are pessimistic to
the extreme, but pessimism is no sign of
insanity, nor is it an indication that we
are ready to give up the struggle for our
freedom. Like LlcGt A-----iccnJ I'D, in
fact, like most ordinary people all over
the world, hope for a miraculous solu-
ton to the worlds ills, and continue
to live, react, and think as before. But
the delusion in miracles meltS before the
heat of world events-the hopes dissolve
in the blast of cold logical conclusions.
World events are facts. They cannot be
erased by the soft, honeyed rubbings of
politicians who talk in circles and re-
fuse to answer directly. Suspicion. death
and destruction combine to form a cause
and effect-they cannot be wished away.
And so live with fear, with many
fears: A fear of doing without the ac-
customed things, fear of hardship for
my family. fear of world stagnation
after the disintegration of the Western
civilization, a fear of change, and fear
of death.

Not q Religious Wor

On every side we have been hearing
the cry of "atheistic communism" and
"the goddess Soviet Union" versus 'the
democracies."
Persons who thus reduce the problem
of East-West relations to atheism ver-
SuS non-atheism are overlooking the one
real factor creating friction, which is
totalitarian aggression.
1t is an integral part of the demo-
cratic way of life that all religious and
non-religious beliefs are to be tolerated

Senate Passes
Claims Program
Appropriations

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. /.
tJACL ADC)-The Senate approved
an appropriation of $725000 for the
Department CT Justices evacuation
claims program for the 1852 fiscal
year. the Washington office Of the
JACL Anti Discrimination Commit
tee said.
Half q million dollars was desig-
mated for the payment of clsirns
less than $500 and S225 900 was
allocated for administrative pur-
poses. This is the same amount as
approved by the House about .
month ago.
The appropriations for the year
ending June 80. 1867 compare with
s1.s00.o00 appropriated for the year
Just ended. OF this total, $1.050, 900
was for the payment Of claims and
$3.50 900 for administrative purposes.
Senate, House Differ
These appropriations for evacua-
ton claims are q part Of the more
than . billion dollars approved for
the Department of State, Justice
and Commerce and the Federal
Judiciary. The Senate appropria-
lions now go into conference to iron
out differences with the House.
The Senate appropriated si045.-
452. $50 for these four agencies while
the House appropriated $l.045,o4O,-
1I5. The House and Senate bills
differ on some 80 separate items
by amounts ranging up to about
million dollars.
Attorney Cited
One item Of difference Is for thu
Office of Alien Property. The HOUSE
approved $500. 900 but the senat.
reduced this amount to 3 million
on grounds that the 1877 attorney
in the office were too many.
Since the House Is In recess unit
Sept. IL, these differences canno
be reconciled at least until tina
time. The House and Senate con
ferees are not expected to hav
much difficulty in agreeing on |

sources.
The amount for evacuation claim
Is not expected to be touched.
Masaoka Regrets Cut
While regretting the cut in ap
preparations for evacuation claims
Mike Masaoks. national legislativ
director, explained that in the ligh
of performance by the Departmer
of Justice this reduction of almos
half a million dollars is under
standable.
''But the cut In administrative
expenses Is particularly hard I
take" Masaoka said. "since Cor
gress has approved the compromis
