.Misdirected Zeal

The big stumbling block in Community
Chest campaigns is not over-zealousness by
those charged with the duty of fund collecting.
The big stumbling block is under -zealousnesS.
But the campaign officials have been wise to
repudiate the over-zealous methods typiied in
the plan of R. w. Scott Mcleod, chief security
officer at the State Department, to meet the
Chest quota assigned to the employees under
his Jurisdiction. Mr.. Mcleod was to invite
contributors to his Office and offer to lend
them dollar for at least a token contribution.
Mr.. McLeod's intentions are the best. But
If this method was generally adopted, resent
ment among those solicited for funds would far
exceed the sentiments of good will and sweet
charity on which the Chest appeal is based.
At the same time, one might wish that Mr..
McLeod'S zeal to do his part could be directed
in other ways and more generally shared by all
of those in whose hands rests the success Of
the campaign-and all the fine things that are
represented in such success.

AS q Thief in the Night

Concerning your editorial: "As a
Thief in the Night" if the President
would ask, by questionnaire or by as
sembly, the engineers and inventors OF
the Nation to make plan for punish
ing, with unerring certainty, the in
dividual man who gives the order or
does the act which starts war OF
aggression, it would be a step toward
ridding this world Of war.
Trying to punish corporation by a
fine is ridiculous. The individual
wrongdoer merely laughs. Trying to
punish a Nation for an act of war is
absurd. It makes another war.
The United Nations can make its
own laws. It can also enforce them.
It can change the charter of the World
Court to give the court jurisdiction
over individuals who order acts Of war.
or who incite wars. It is not bound
by any constitution and it can have
it's own charter changed by ratification.
It can even pass an ex-post-facto law;
or a statute of outlawry against a
tyrant or dictator or against poten-
tate who promulgates lies; or it can
make rule for trial ad absento against
a man who orders an act Of war.

of the Catawbas' and Delawares met
at the confluence of the rivers and
practically annihilated one another.
There were reported to have been only
two survivors, one on each side. Why
they failed to do away with each other
is not recorded.
Ever since Robert Harper founded
the town in 1747 it has had troubled
history. A more unlikely person to
settle in the wilderness could not have
been picked, Mr.. Greene informs us, for
Harper was an arch-Tory, native OF
oxford, an architect and fellow who
liked bathtubS. There were, in the
course of years, duels, court fights and
other forms of violence over the scenic
spot.
In 1894 President Washington rec
commended that a Federal arsenal be
located at Harpers Ferry. In due course,
allowing for the usual congressional
dissent and other delays, this was done.
It was the Armory, or the Works, as it
came to be known that gave the town
so many dreadful hours. The dedicated
fanatic John Brown chose Harpers
Ferry for his dramatic gesture because
of the Works. He could and did seize
the arsenal with the intention Of hold
ing off opposition and arTning the slaves
he intended to free. The Baltimore q
Ohio, the first railroad to push into the
West, ran through HarperS Ferry, and
this gave the town further strategic
Importance. Because Of the railroad and
the Works it was prize during the

ing second or third In the world, and also OF
balata and bauxite. The former is gum sub
stance used in insulating compounds and the
latter is base for aluminium. In addition to
these industrial considerations, the colony pro-
vides one of the several anchors in the network
Of British-American defense outposts for the
Caribbean-Panama Canal area. BY terms of
the destroyer defense base agreement Of 1910,
the U7ited States was permitted to establish
and operate an airf1eld and seaplane base in
the colony and both have been maintained in
the years since the war. Obviously, the creation
of Communist state in Guiana would neutral
ize the usefulness of such defense establish
ments and might convert the country into
base Of operations for additional Communist
intrigueS and subversive efforts in nearby South
American countries.

Recently this column carried the
following sentence:
ct hate to get up in the morning,
when the sun begins to shine" sang
Harry Lauder.
Now, newspaper readers are keen
readers, and they are always willing to
take you up on something.
Hold everything!" wrote r. P. "Your
quote of Harry LADDERS song, oh, How
Hate to Get Up in the Morning, When
the Sun Begins to Shine isn't the way
I heard it.
IF remember, it is, oh, how hate
to get up in the morning when it's
murky overhead Am I right?"
Then comes B. j. T. Of Forty y-fourth
street, who says:
IT like your column, Mr.. T., and
you're generally right-but not this
time. This is what Harry Lauder said:
oh, it's nice tae get up in the morrrnin'
When the sun begins to shine
At fourrr ORR five orr six o'clock
In the good old summertime.
But when the Snaw is shaving
And it's murky overhead,
Oh, it's nice tae get up in the morrrnin'
(chucklel
But it's nicerrr tae lie in yourrr bed!'"
We are glad Miss T. put that chuckle
in.
All those who heard Sir Harry when
he appeared here-we think it was on
the stage Of the National-will never
forget the infectious laugh.
After all. the exact quotation Of such
songs makes no difference.

Takes McKeIdin to Task

It is about time the citizens Of Mary
land took to task their Gov. Mckeld1n
for the political mouthings he is so
famous for. especially outside the Free
State. It is one thing for a politician
to spout of from time to time as is his
wont, but quite another matter when
the sovereign head Of great State sees
fit to run around the country castigat-
ing any and all not Of his political
faith.
I am referring In particular to his
speech on October before the Bergen
County IN. J0 Republican Club at the
Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York, at
which he spoke disparagingly and de-
risively of 100 years of Democratic
retrogression in American enterprise
and official morals" Twenty years in
deed-and how fortunate for him and
all Of us the Democratic Party came
into power in 1888 under the able lead
ership of Franklin D. Roosevelt. Per-
hapS Gov. McKeldin has forgotten the
apple sellers, the Hoover carts, the farm
and home mortgage foreclosures, the
long lines Of hungry, decent and honest
American citizens asking for handouts;
the era Of 10-cent corn and 20-cent
wheat. the bonus march, etc. This was
at q time when the leadership Of his
party in the person Of old Andy Mel
Ion, then Secretary Of the Treasury,
was quoted as saying, people should
have invested their money in Govern
ment bonds" Perhaps Gov. McKeldin
has forgotten the position of American
enterprise in those days. yes perhaps,
but not very likely. AS to Official
morals" must remind him also Of the
Republicans who were sent to jail for
selling Government leased oil proper
ties, and of the corruption involved in
the Harding administration? I say
then, let him think of Caesars wife
before he again feels the urge to pro-
claim the virtues Of Republicanism.

NotFit to Live

The veneer which civilization is supposed
to lay upon us wears pretty thin in the face Of
such monstrous thing as the kidnapping and
murder of 6-year-old Bobby Greenlease.
!. Our society being what it is, the law will
have to take it's course. Two of the subhuman
creatures responsible for this crime-a man and
q woman-are under arrest. A third man is
being sought. When he is rounded up this trio,
assuming no others are involved, should be
speedily brought to trial. If convicted, they
should be executed as promptly as possible, and
no compassion should be wasted on them. Such
creatures as these are not fit to live.

Unsupported Schools

"A free, tax-supported education for
every child in American"
Under American law we protect the
right of the minority to speak its mind.
lest on some matters the majority be
both wrong and uncorrected, conf
dently believing that in the long run
the majority will do what is fair and
just if it knows the truth.
To judge by some recent CONVERSE
tions with several kind and well-edu-
Gated people, there are many who are
genuinely unaware of fact regarding
the education of American children.
This fact is that there is a financial
penalty for conscience. All citizens pay
taxes for the support of the schools;
colored children have usually been given
an inferior share; and no share at all
is given for the education of those chill
dren whose parents choose to send them
to a religious school. These schools
teach civic responsibility and lay the
foundation for vocational learning in
addition to their religious emphasis. Yet
they may not share in public funds for
