part in the decision Of the case. Justice Frank
furter wrote lengthy opinion in which he
reviewed extensively the applicable constitu-
tional principles and the guiding cases. His
ultimate position was one of agreement with the
majority, but there Is room for the inference
that he is not without misgivings as to the pos
sible consequences of the line which this decision
takes.
When all of the factors are balanced, how
ever, it is difficult to see how responsible court
could have come to any other conclusion. ANY
restraint on freedom of speech, especially in
what may have the color of political matter,
is not to be lightly imposed or accepted. But
the Constitution, as the judges have SO often
said, was designed to serve the needs of changing
times. When the First Amendment was adopted
there was nothing in this country remotely
comparable to the Communist conspiracy. It
is this conspiracy, the success 1t has achieved in
other lands, and the ruthless power of the die
tatorship that lies behind 1t which have given
rise to the present pressures, passions and fears
Of which Justice Black spoke. These presSures,
passions and fears are not fanciful things; they
have foundation in fact. Congress, after full
and careful consideration, has concluded that
this conspiracy should be treated as crime and
the Supreme Court would wander far afleld from
its proper function If it were to substitute its
judgment assuming it might hold a contrary
view, for that of the legislature in such a
situation.

After they completed building the

take up his position on the platform in

Not only young mems fancies lightly
turn to thoughts of love at this time
Of year.
Birds have somewhat the same feeling.
In the spring the male cardinals,
which all winter have pretended not to
see their mates. begin to be interested
again.
The males now proffer them choice
seeds, preferably sunhower. and the ac-
ceptance thereof means the beginning
of nesting.
P. P r. Of Macarthur boulevard has
watched this phenomenon:
Last evening some guests from out
of town joined my wife and me In
watching the birds coming to our feed
ing board.
'As female cardinal came on the
board, one of our guests noticed that she
did not move very quickly. seemed less
frightened than most cardinals were.
"On watching more closely. guest
saw that this cardinal was using only
one leg, the other being apparently de-
formed or hurt, since she carried it close
up to her body.

Close up, the seed is seen: then the
affair takes on different character.
Ordinarily in fall and winter the male
and female redbirds pay little attention
to each other.
This solemn offer and acceptance of a
seed Is sort Of ritual.
In the nesting time the female car
dinal is the belligerent one, chasing
robins and others away from the nest
with the utmost fury.
Usually the male cardinal will peck
at his mate all winter, if she dares to
try to dispute feeding place with him.
She cannot get anything to eat until
the OLD man has eaten his I'LL.
But when spring comes around, and
the softer airs and the moisture and
pleasant winds speak volumes, even to
insects. the male cardinal softens his
heart.
Like young man with fine new
box Of candy. he selects sunhower seed,
though the feeding station is right in
front OF his mate.
Very solemnly he pokes the seed into
her bill.
II she is not receptive, she refuses
the seed.
In most cases, however, she eats the
seed with great relish.
Perhaps she Is struck dumb by such
thoughtfulness on the part Of her mate.
Maybe it just spring.

Victims of a Vicious Circle

A prudent subcommittee handling the
current District appropriation bill, which is
scheduled for House action tomorrow, cut about
So million from the Commissioners recommended
tions for q total of $1367 millions. One COM
pelling reason for this reduction was the
possibility of salary increases which might
increase the District payroll by as much as
So million. Another was that imitation has
increased the estimated costs of construction
far beyond original estimates, making impossible
any realistic budgeting.
With these reductions and others that may
stnl be made, the District might be able to
finance added payroll costs without resorting to
another heavy increase in general local taxes,
which have increased from about $47.7 millions
In fiscal year 1945 to an estimated total Of $878
millions in this fiscal year.
But If the Federal payment of $11 million,
agreed on in 1948, is reduced this year, as 1t
was last, another heavy increase in local taxes
within the next year may become inevitable.
The subcommittee handling the District bill Is
opposing any such reduction. The danger to
the District lies in some move from the floor to
cut the Federal payment by 10 per cent, without
relation to the obligation that rests on the
controlling National Government to pay Its share
of local expenses.
The District taxpayer has become the victim,
In this respect, of vicious circle. Heavily
mounting costs of Government require more
revenue Local taxes are increased year after
year to pay the bill. But sizable proportion
of the local taxes goes to Offset reductions in the
Federal payment, instead of meeting the inflated
costs of local Government. And the unrepre-
sented local taxpayer is faced with another
increase in taxes to pay for this reduction
Recognizing this fact, Congress in l948 IN
creased the Federal payment from So to $ll
million, or from ii to little more than Is
per cent of the total District appropriations
when it Increased local taxes. But last year.
although the District bill had increased from
$s1 million to $102 million, the Federal payment
was cut from $11 million to $98 million, or from
1875 to 95 per cent. This year, with record
size appropriation and a record local tax pay
ment. an $11 million Federal payment would
represent s6 per cent. But the danger facing
the District is that last years cut will be re-
peated, forcing still another increase in local
taxes that have been raised almost 100 per cent
in the past six years.
If local taxes we're reduced in the same
proportion, there would be certain logic in an
economy reduction in the Federal payment. But
to increase local taxes in order to pay for services
rendered the Federal Government, the costs OF
which have risen along with everything else'
is neither logical nor fair.

India Crop Rotation
r. C.. w

The vote Of Congress allocating $l90
million for supplying million tons Of
foodgrains to India has for all practical
purposes terminated the debate on the
question whether to give or not to give. F"
While the debate was on, the humane
tartan consideration Of relieving hunger
clouded every other aspect Of the ques-
ton.
Now that the demands Of humani-
tarianism have been satisfied, it might
be useful to pause for moment and
contemplate the future. particularly
the question whether the last has been
seen or heard of famine conditions In
India. The following facts would be
Of special interest in this connection.
The Indian Delegation to the 10th
Plenary Meeting Of the International
Cotton Committee held in February.
1851, at Lahore, stated that the Indian
production Of cotton in 1949-50 was
1853 million bales, in 1950-51 it was 80
million bales, and the forecast for 1851
50 was million bales. In other words.
an increase Of IL million bales is ex-
pected between 1949-50 and 1951-52. On

Washington was duty, not a pleasure
The Ulysses Grants fairly revelled in
Washington and the binding social
glitter of the presidency. At the end Of
eight years Grant, disillusioned by poll
tics and corruption, apologized for his
mistakes. which he said were, Errors
of judgment. not of intent" But Mrs.
Grant must have felt otherwise. To her
we are indebted for this poetic descrip-
tion of her experiences as First Lady:
my life in the White House was like a
bright and beautiful dream. I am a
woman and life at the White House was
a garden spot of orchids. I wish it
might have continued forever"
Herbert Hoover's administration was
soon darkened by a great depression.
Near the end Of his term he said: "All
the money in the world could not induce
me to live over again the last nine
months. The conditions we have expe-
rienced make this Office compound

The KremIin's Reply

Tn its reuly to last weeks Anglo French
American notes, the Krenln has laid down
condition that seems definitely to rule out the
possibility OF holding a full-dress Big Four Con-
ference in the near future. Indeed, the conditlon
suggests that the Foreign Ministers deputies,
who have been meeting in Paris ever. since
March in an effort to agree upon an agenda for
such conference, ought now to stop oorlng eacn
other and decide to adjourn.
Last weeks notes represented an attempt by
the three Western powers to end the Paris stale
mate with an invitation to the Soviet Union for
a Big Four Conference that would begin here IN
washington on July % and be governed by any
one of three alternative agenda broad enough 10
include some incidental but not substantive, dis
cussion of the Atlantic Pact and overseas Amerl-
can bases The meetings. main purpose would be
to deal with problems affecting the peace and to
talk about ways and means OF easing 1nterna-
tional tensions. To all of which the Kremiin mas
now replied that it will be pleased to accept the
invitation If France, Britain and the United
States agree to list the pact and the question OF
bases as major items Of business.
This condition, however, seems to be exactly
the same as the one that Andrei Gromyko, the
Soviet deputy at Paris, has been persistently In
ssting upon, only to have 1t just as persistently
rejected The reason for the rejection is simply
this: That France Britain and the United states,
although amenable to incidental discussion OF
the two subjects, regard the Atlantic Pact and
overseas bases as matters that are not germane
to the real business of the proposed conference
To place them on the agenda would be to imply
that they are not legitimate measures OF defense
against the forces responsible for present world
tensions The West. in short has refused, and
still refuses, to make them major items OF busi-
ness at meeting where the Russian Foreign
Minister could be counted upon to hammer away
at them with interminable propaganda attacks
aimed at dividing the free allies and impeding
their preparedness.
So the Kremlin, in repeating Mr.. Gromyko's
persistent demand despite the Vests persistent
refusal, appears-in effect-to have turned down
the invitation for Foreign Ministers conference
Last November it took the initiative in proposing
such conference, but now it seems not to want
one, presumably having no desire to cooperate
in an effort to ease tensions. In the circum-
stances, assuming that its note has not been mis-
read, there is good reason why the deputies at
Paris should by mutual consent put an end to the
dreary and fruitless sessions they have been hold
ing for the past thre 4 months
