LPF Inmates Save
On Sewage Plant

London Prison Farm inmates
are saving the state approxima-
tely 100000 in labor costs on
a new prison sewage disposal
plant, farm authorities said today.
Nineteen inmates are assigned
to construction tasks, and others
are employed as needed.
Competitive bids were received
for the new plant, but the lowest
bid was in excess Of S240, COO.
This included labor costs. The
state legislature appropriated
$4,000. and with use of in
mates in construction work, this
sum probably will be adequate,
officials said

e our
"a town y


For a long time we had
been watching developments
concerning our good riding
mare, Candy. Candy was to
have a colt next month and
we were looking forward to
the big day when we were in
formed that Candy had Civ
en- birth to twins prematurely.
The twins died, of course,
and it was quite blow.
Don't know how often twin
colts are born but we know
it isn't often. Can't help but
think how nice it would have
been had they lived. At this
writing we are hoping we
don't lose Candy too.
WOLF

PEACE
Liked this which we saw
in the Cincinnati Enquirer
The high point of initiation
was reached in 1850 when
Ralph Bunche was awarded
$31,674 as the Nobel peace
prize, as there probably
wasn't more than Sd worth
of peace in the whole world!"
LETTER
Nice letter from Phil
Chakeres in today's mail. Mr..
Chakeres very tiloughtfuIly
wrote us just to say thanks"
for our article on his win
ming of the Look Award some
time ago. We enjoy working
with the Chakeres organiza-
ton and hope that Mr.. Chalk
eres wins a lot of awards.
LEGISLATURE
Every SO often the legisla-
ture considers a new bill
which would give the COVER
nor power to remove county
sheriffs from office should
r. choose to do so. We are
inst any legislation which
wopi make this possible on
the grounds that the sheriff
Is elected by the people of
his community. No power
should be given to a higher
authority to remove any elect
cd official. In our mind
such a law would be in di-
rect violation of the peoples
rights. Surely, if a sheriff
fails to do his duty, the pub
lie will remove him.
DUST
What the town council
needs right now is a king
sized vacuum sweeper. There
is more dust and dirt in
London right now than there
is in Kansas. Old Man Win
ter really did a job this year.
GYM
Lots Of speculation as to
when the new high school
gymnasium will be completed.
Our own guess is that it'll
be ready for basketball.
When it is finished, it will
be the. greatest improvement
in many a moon.
LAST WORD
It'll burn faster If you
throw some coal oil on it. q. !"

Executions
Set For May
SobeH Given 30
Years; Greenglass
Sentence Later

NEW YORK, APRIL 5-tR)--
Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, hHS-
band and wife convicted of steal
ing American atom bomb secrets
for Russia, were sentenced today
to death in the electric chair.
Il consider your crime worse
than murder" said Federal Judge
Irving r. Kaufman. He set the
week of May 21 for execution.
He said the trial indicates
quite clearly" that an enemy ma
ton is employing secret as we'll
as outspoken forces among our
own people"
Both Rosenberg, a 32-year-oid
electrical engineer, and his 35-
year-old-wife, showed little
emotion at the sentence. Rosen-
berg's jaw muscles frightened. His
tiny wife grasped a chair and
breathed heavily.
Radar Expert Morton Sobeii,
"a, a third defendant, was senten-
ced to 80 years in prison. Kauf-
man said his guilt was of a les
ser degree"
Former army sgt. D6vId Green
glass, %. who pleaded guilty and
gave testimony that helped con-
vict Mrs. Rosenberg. his sister,
will be sentenced tomorrow.
Judge kaufman told the RoSen-
bergs:
plain, deliberate murder is
dwarfed by your acts"
The court added that he had
searched the records and my
conscience for some reason for
mercy but l am convinced that I
would violate the trust placed
in me if / showed any leniency to
the Rosenbergs.
The Rosenbergs and Morton
Sobell were convicted last week
Of obtaining atomic spy secrets
and passing them to Russia.
David Greenglass, brother Of
Mrs. Rosenberg, who confessed TO
obtaining atomic secrets while
working at the Los Alanos, N. M,
atomic bomb base and passing
them to the Rosenbergs, was the
chief prosecution witness against
his brother-in-law and sister He
awaits sentencing.
Judge Kaufman asserted the
Rosenbergs had committed their
acts of espionage in 1874, while
the country was at war
The overt acts were com
mitted during hostilities." the
judge added
Sentence was imposed at 1908
pm.
Judge kaufman opened his dis
cussion by outlining the penal
ties provided in the Espionage
Act in force. He said that pro-
visions of the act under which
the indictments were returned
were enacted in 1917 when the
Russian international spy ring did
not present the threat 1t does
now"
The law, the judge said, pro-
vided a maximum penalty of %
years Imprisonment for a con-
viction of peace time espionage
and maximum of death or Inn
prisonment for not more than so
years for wartime espionage.
Stating the law when enacted.
took no cognizance of vital secrets
such as the atom bomb, Judge
: Kaufman declared 1T is time for
congress to examine the penal
provisions of this act"
Judge Kaufman said that should
any persons be convicted in peace
time of transmitting secrets con-
corning the new type of A-borno
or the hydrogen bomb, the max
imum penalty that can be i'm
posed is 20 years"
The court characterized the
espionage activities of the Roseil-
bergs as "a dirty business"
This does not reflect the cour-
age of Nathan Hale for his eoun-
try" Judge kaufman said. This
is a dirty business betrayal Of
ones own country"

The Week in Religion


Early this summer, one o
Americas leading Protestant theo
Ilogians called for "a socially con
1structive form of Christianit,
which would be actively concerned
with current political, economic
and social affairs"
The call was sounded by DR.
Reinhold Niebuhr, professor oi
Applied Christianity at Unior
Theological Seminary in New
York. 1t was answered last week
with the formation in Washington
Iof a new national Protestant
social action organization to be
known as Christian Action.
This is the first time that 9
social action group of such broac
and representative proportions
has been organized.
Joining to launch the new or.
ganization were more than 20(
delegates, mostly theologians anc
seminary students, from 20 de.
nominations. They described
themselves as "a group o1
christians and church member.
who have met to find a way
to fulfill our common RESPONSE
bilities under God"
Purpose Given.
A statement of purpose adopted
by the delegates stressed tha
Christian action would be con
cerned not only with efforts t,
combat social evils of all types
but to affirm "a positive political
social and economic program"
The delegates aims were re
Iiterated in resolution which
said: --...e-@-..-..-
I'VE affirm that the gospel i'm
IpelS us to work together for a re-
SponSible society-local, nationa
and world-wide-which will Civ,
each person or group a fair ant
equal opportunity to develop hi
full potentialities. This involve
Judgment on the political, eco
nomic and social policies of oul
country"
They made it clear that tn,
group would attempt to furnish
Professionalism with a "solidly ori
ented middle ground" to help off
set the influence of both leftist.
and rightists in the church anc
in society.
Subsequently, DR.. Robert Handy
assistant professor of church his.
Evening star., 1951-09-30

tory at Union Theological Sem
mary, and head of Christian Ac-
ltion's 18-man executive commit
Itee, announced that the group
would take specific steps to keep
people with Communist or party
line" sympathies from infiltrating
into it.
Impact on National Life.
Another current development
involving American Protestant
ism'S impact on the national life
has been the establishment of a
Christian Citizenship Depart
ment by the Council of Social Ac-
ton of the Congregational Chris
tian Churches to replace its Leg
islative Department. The change
was approved at a three-day
meeting of the councils national
board in. Washington.
The decision of the Congrega-
tionalist leaders was viewed as ex-
ceptionally interesting by religious
leaders who have raised the ques-
ton as to whether church social
action groups are, or should be,
engaged in lobbying activities.
According to the Rev. Thomas
IB. Keehn. secretary of the Con-
lgregationalist social action group
lobbying, as such. will be only a
relatively minor function Of the
new department. He said its main
function will be educational, ac-
complished through Washington
seminars for clergymen. publica-
Itions dealing with public problems
and encouraging the formation OF
discussion groups in local churches.
The council will continue to
testify before Congressional COM
