The Moldive Republic

The Maldiyes may not have known when
they were well on.
For more than 800 years some $4,000 people
have been living quietly, and presumably happily,
on $4,000 tiny palm-shaded sand islands In the
Indian Ocean. They had no jails and no auto
mobiles In fact very little Of what Is ordinarily
called modern civilization. The principal occupa-
tions, aside from resting, have been fishing and
the gathering Of copra which they transported In
their own sailing craft to Ceylon and India to
exchange for food and textiles Their favorable
trade balance has been estimated at $4S3,00O
yearly.
FOR government. they had hrst hereditary
sultan, later an elected one Their defense and
foreign affairs, theoretical problems only, they
placed by treaty in the hands Of Britain.
Now. It seems, the sultan has died and the
population has decided to adopt full-dedged
republican form Of parliamentary government.
They are welcomed to the community Of free
and independent nations-with the hopeful res

it has made clear that the continued presence
OF the military mission-now located behind
the walls Of the Soviet Embassy-is completely
unwelcome, and that the missions members
should be recalled home by Moscow Obviously,
and with good reason, the japanese regard the
maintenance Of this token form Of occupation
as gross affront deliberately designed to show
contempt for their national independence under
the 48-nation San Francisco treaty.
In all probability Moscow will ignore Tokyos
complaint and do nothing about withdrawing
the mission. But the japanese, even though they
are not likely to try ejecting this symbolic occu-
patton force, have moved to shut the door against
the entry Of additional Russians in any part of
the islands. Besides demonstrating admirable
hrmnesS, the action may help to persuade the
men Of the Kremlin that they are gaining noth-
ing-in terms of trade prospects or propaganda
from their present no-peace policy. In any event,
Japan has shown that it does not propose to be
dealt with as If 1t were Soviet-occupied land.

Judge McCurthy's Ruling,

Arlington Circuit Judge Walter T.
McCarthy's recent decision relative to
the disability Of Federal employees to
hold Offices under the State government
involved points of constitutional law.
It should be valued and credited by all
citizens who desire to live under the
safeguards of constitutional govern
ment and the protection Of their in
herent constitutional rights.
The real issues in this case are ig-
nored or distorted in the vapid outcry
of an extremely articulate group which
presently controls the political fortunes
= of Arlington County.
Letters to The Star have attacked
Judge McCarthy's opinion: Analysis
of these letters shows either ignorance
or a deliberate attempt to mislead the
public.
They would have us believe Virginia
has barbarouS government and that
the statutes relative to special laws"
are peculiar to this State. The rule
against special laws is fundamental
in our system of government. The United
States Constitution recognizes it, and
so do most State constitutions, in one
form or another.
It Is well recognized in the Federal
Constitution that all men have a right
to be governed by general rather than
special laws, since the equality Of rights.
privileges and capacities, and not the
granting of special privileges, is the aim
of the law. The rule can be simply
stated:
when the State Legislature lays down
q policy, no individual or group of in
dividuals will be allowed some special
dispensation whereby they may operate
under q different policy"
These letters would further have us
believe that Judge Mccarthy reached
into the long-forgotten past for an ar
chaic statute-sp that he de-
cided the case on some law passed IN
1887. Such is not the fact.
Although the law was passed in 1887.
it has been re-enacted by the General
Assembly time and again, even as late
as 1850.
Under Virginia law. one holding Office
with the Federal Government cannot
qualify as an incumbent State officer
while he retains his Federal position.
Disregarding the legal angles, there is

The Russians in japan

Although Japan is now formally at peace
with the United, States and practically every
other country in the free world, it Is sti techni
cally at war with the Soviet Union. The men Of
the &Kremlin, having refused to sign the San
Francisco treaty, apparently intend to keep alive
the symbol OF occupation by continuing to main
tain Id Tokyo the military mission they have had
stationed there ever since vi day. Presumably,
this is their way Of showing that they have not
changed their views about the Illegal and "in-
valid" San Francisco decisions
The Tokyo government, however. has not
been intimidated by the Kremlin's attitude
On the contrary. speaking with the voice of
newly restored sovereignty, it has Just indicated
through its Foreign Once that no more Russians

If you think that care necessary.
Il find it soothing to watch them.
Surely some of the greatest men In the
world have found happiness in watching
the small animals. It is said that
Mahomet was so fond Of his cat that
he cut on the tail Of his robe, rather
than disturb his pet, who was sleeping
on It.

sible to have two thoughts in the mind

The best thing one can do for wild
rabbits ir the home yard iS to let the
grass grow long.
This gives them natural cover. and
increases their chance Of survival.
The smaller ones. in particular, ap-
preciate this, since they are just getting
their bearings In. the world Of dogs. cats
and men.
Probably they are more In danger
from man than from any other animal
There is certain type OF man who no
sooner sees rabbit than he wants to
kill it.
This, instant thought Of "kill' comes
down from ancient days, when the un-
