Blueprint for Massacre

It is indeed horrible and shocking
conclusion drawn by the House committee inves-
tigating the Katyn Forest massacre in charging
this monstrous crime to the Soviet government
and describing it as "a blueprint for Korea"
One of the most repelling stories of World
War II was the German announcement of April
13, 1943, that they had discovered in Katyn
Forest, U. 8. S. R., mass grave containing the
bodies of more than 5000 Polish officers. The
dead were part of larger group of some $1,000
officers and intellectuals who had been captured
by the Russians in late 1889 and early 1910
while the German Russian alliance was still in
effect and Poland was under occupation of the
two evil partners When the alliance was
destroyed by the German invasion of Russia, one
of the first efforts of the Polish government-in-
exile, joined then in military pact with the
U. S. S. r.. was to seek the whereabouts and
return of these prisoners. Inquiry OF every
Russian source, including Marshal Stain, brought
only an evasive explanation that their where
aboutS were unknown-they must have escaped.
With the German discovery-and charge
that the executions had been done by the Rus
sians-came immediate counter accusations from
Moscow that the Nazis were the murderers. It
was considered significant, however, that the
Soviet government refused to allow neutral
Red Cross investigation in the Katyn area, broke
of relations with the Polish government because
it had approached the Red Cross on the matter,
and set up wholly Russian commission which
reaf1rmed the German guilt and absolved the
Soyiets There were clear inconsistencies, how
ever, in the Soviet explanation.
The present findings of the House committee
are based on nine months of study, testimony
from 81 witnesses, and dispositions from more
than 100 others in various parts of the world.
Their conclusions of Soviet guilt areaananimous
and their recommendation is that the terrible
crime be referred to the United Nations and the
World Court for appropriate international
condemnation.
Most disquieting, however, is the committees
reminder that the evasive Soviet excuses to the
Polish authorities in 1941 identical with those
being given by the Communist negotiators in
Korea today with reference to thousands OF
missing United Nations soldiers and officers. In
such evasions, the committee feels, may rest an
implied admission that similar murder has been
committed and that, in fact, the whole violent
germ warfare" propaganda now being waged

MacArthur's character Is the sum of
heroic qualities: Lofty aim, fearlessness,
resolution, fortitude. Let us understand
what heroism is. then we shall be less
ashamed to honor it. Heroism is mill
tary attitude Of the soul that says, "This
is right, and as agent Of God, will ex-
ercise my energies and power, that right
shall prevail" It is Self-reliance that
dares to take both reputation and life in
hand and say II have an opinion on this
issue. There are no bosses above me, save
God" "Thou shalt have no other gods
before me, saith the Lord" Eisenhower
didn't have an opinion on the value Of
Berlin. That was decided by his political
bosses. Macarthur had an opinion on
Japan-compare the results. Heroism is
an instinct that feels rather than phi
losophizes, and persists in undaunted
boldness and fortitude. It is the differ

Of men-the masters and the dupes.

co TO CHURCH SUNDAY

November 23-3O has been proclaimed as "Go-to-
Church Week in Miami" by Mayor Chelsie j. Senerchia
The Mayor pointed out that history has proven that
man in his vanity has been unable to pattern alone his
destiny and that the world situation today the result of
mans effort to travel without his God.
pMayor enerchia urged citizens of all faiths to to
the place of worship of their choice and pray to God that
He may guide their minds and hands under the healing
influence of the faherhood of God and the brotherhood
of man.
This is a very important proclamation and undoubt-
edy will be read with general satisfaction. It will
doubt have its influence upon hundreds of Maians who
perhaps have become lax in their attendance at church.
With the radio and television bringing eloquent
and rich sermons and melodous music there is tendan
cy on the part of church people to stay at home
Sundays However, to do miss that fellowship of
worshipping together and knowing another better
"Behold how good and pleasant thing it is for
brethren to dwell together in unity"
Let us hope that during "Go-to-Church Week" our
churches will be crowded ad that result there will be
permanent increase in church attendance.

What were the words she spoke

When He said 81 love you best"
She rocked Him gently in her

And she kissed His curly head;
She sang her little songs to Him
When tucking Him in bed.
What were the songs that Mary

GMI sells Polyamide Resin to adhesive

sell it to makers of cardboard cartons And

It's possible, but not likely. In 1851,
Eastman spent $15,0O0O00 on the research
and development efforts Of its hundreds of
