Help Against Reds

"He that is not with me is against
me; he that gathereth not with me
scattereth abroad" Matt. xxi. 30.
These Bible words are as true today
as when Jesus spoke them more than
1900 years ago.
Americans who seek to defend Reds
In their avowed efforts to exterminate
religion-especially Christianity-and
to overthrow our Government, and
establish here q Soviet government
under Moscow, are equally guilty with
the Soviet-trained subversive workers
in our midst.
II a person who has been duped into
joining the ranks of subversives dis
covers his mistake, he should acknowl-
edge the error, join the patriots ana
assist them by exposing these enemies
Of God and man.
We cannot be neutral In this Red
peril crisis. One is either loyal to God
and to the United States or else he Is
not.
The hue and cry against the meth
DDS" of our investigating committees
seems to be because they are getting
results. mo one who felt the halter
draw had good opinion of the law"
May God help each loyal American
to assist and encourage the compare
lively few brave, patriotic people who
are doing their utmost to save for us,
and for posterity, our right to worship
God and to continue our American
way of life.

Pro-Friendship Argument

It seems time somebody listened to
the Suitland citizens in their proposal
to have the city use Friendship Airport
for landing field for commercial
planes.
If there is a finer airport anywhere
In the world than Friendship, where is
it? And it is only in part use. though
built by Government funds largely.
Everybody felt sure that after the New
Jersey crashes pointed up the need for
landing fields more remote from con-
gested residential areas, the Nation
had learned its lesson. But not yet, it
seems.
Too few Washingtonians have seen
Friendship, with its long runways. its
ultramodern appointments such as air
conditioning, overnight lodging, con-
ference rooms, etc.
What with the new Baltimore Wash
ington expresSway nearing completion,
Friendship is ideally located. The
transfer Of trafhc to that great field
would mean more peace and safety
for residents of Arlington, the Suitland
area, Georgetown and Alexandria.
Long ago cities like st. Louis saw to
it that their airfleldS were situated
outside congested residential areas,
and their air connections and business
are good. Who cares whether we
share our air traffic with Baltimore?
Well need more space later anyhow,
and the area between Baltimore and
Washington Is the fastest growing
metropolitan area in the Nation. The
Friendship landing pattern will be kept
safe, thanks to the airfield and city
planners.

This and That . .

for me, newcomer to our neighbor-
hood. bird that sings at night!
1--WE have lived in the Cleveland Park
area intermittently for the past Is
years, but this is the first spring that
we have heard any bird singing in the
middle Of the night.
"His song at am. has something Of
the tempo and form of the cardinals.
though not so melodiouS or joyous. At
times one might think him melan-
choly cardinal singing in a minor key.
Very truly yours, A. D. M"
X
'ANNANDALE. Va.
Dear Sir:
"An extra fine singer, a very hand
some lnocker, who stays with us all
year, seems to outdo all his concerts
for the last few days.
This grand happy fellow starts early
morning, when it is only light enough
to locate him, and continues through
the day. Rain does not seem to inter-
rupt him.
Looks and sings as if life is Won
derful Joy to him. His song is rich and
tuneful, his melody far outStrips these
so-called silly, love-sick, garbled. stupid,
idiotic, foolish. muddleheaded, sense
less, distorted, meaningless, weak
minded, disgusting, supposed-to-be-
songs heard over the radio.
why sponsor inflicts such punish
ment with those sickening. stupid songs
is indeed beyond me, when there are
so many thousands Of neglected, real
old-time songs, which would be enjoyed
by both young and old today.

Between his fingers. His 0dunt. Wedth-
cred frame
STOPPED noU from ,Oetght of years Uould

An open path, Dith turning here and

But neuer shaded, altpdys in the light
OF clear bright sun. His thoughts ioere
mellon, mild,
And free OF greed. His uoice tDas tenn

ARLINGTON, Va.

Dear Sir:
"I would appreciate a discussion by
you in your column concerning the
possibility and advisability Of travelling
with parakeet by car.
Can they be transported without
endangering them? I imagine this
problem is Of interest to others.
Sincerely yours, M. M. T."
ParakeetS are best at home. but If
they must be taken on trip. it may
be done.
They do best in lined cage. that is,
a cage with a cloth or even paper
lining, but one that permits the entry
Of plenty of air at the top.
The direct draft is what may harm
them.
Open car windows have a way of
bouncing q draft OF the back window
forward, much to the discomfort of
passengers in the back seat.
This might apply to parakeets and
other birds travelling by auto.
To leave the bird loose in the car is
to take great chance Of losing it.
All birds are extremely sensitive to
gases, and the deadly monoxide gas
might kill q parakeet or canary, in
amounts that would not be felt by
human.
1t will be recalled that canaries
were used to detect gas attacks in the
trenches Of World War I.

RecoIIections Of the RundoIIs

NSSVIieCtIOuS OF tne Non0oIIS
With sincere sorrow note the
death Of Harry e. Randall. jr. In
memory recall other members Of this
fine old family.
The late Captain Harry e. Randall,
ST.. was not only the youngest licensed
steamboat captain on the Potomac
River, but one of the most capable
that ever took the wheel, according to
the opinion of Captains Bailey Reed,
Phil Barbour and Chap Slye, and Pur-
sers George Guest, Thomas Gannett.
George j. Stafford, and other steamboat
men Of reliable judgment.
Steamboats, no longer ply as Of old
on the Potomac. from Washington to
the mouth Of the bay: but along the
old route, the shores Of Virginia and
Maryland, the name Of Captain Eph-
rain S. Randall never will be forgotten.
There are merchants still alive who
owe the foundation and building Of
their businesses to the old Randall
line. including steamers Harry Randall.
Wakefield, Arrowsmith. Estelle Ran
dali. and other boats of transportation
Of freight and passengers, belonging to
the line.
Across the river from Mount Vernon
was River View, owned and operated
as summer resort by Captain E. s.
Randall: and day spent at this popu-
lar resort. with its many attractions
including dancing on the fine pavilion
to the strains of music by Shroeders'
band, was diversion enjoyed by count
less Washingtonians and AlexandrianS
as well.
With a watchful eye and an enter
prising spirit, Captain Z. 8. Randall
ever was alert for new and expanding
business, and thus it was when an
opportunity came to acquire extensive
properties at Colonial Beach, Virginia.
Captain Randall purchased the hotel
and a thousand acres of land at that
place. A part Of this land, known as
the Reservation, already had been used
as a resort
Under the management Of Captain
Randall's representative, the late
George j. Stafford, the hotel. which
had once been the home of Light
Horse Harry Lee, father Of Robert E.
Lee. was repaired and modernized and
many new buildings and attractions
were added to the resort. The old
steamer st. Johns made daily trips
bringing large crowds to this delightful
resort in the good old days.
There are few survivors Of the old
Randall family. but the name Of Cap
tain E. S. Randall will be remembered
as synonymous with good citizenship
and honest business principles.

1t Should Be Knocked Out

When it votes on authorizing funds for the
Mutual Security Agency, the Senate will be
acting wisely If it refuses to go along with the
House approved bill and adopts, instead, the
much better legislation recommended by its
own Foreign Relations Committee.
This is so because the House bill, besides
authorizing considerably less than the sum
requested by the administration for foreign
economic and military aid, contains we'll
intentioned but altogether unSound provision
that could do serious damage to the best in
terests Of the United States The effect Of the
provision, If adopted, would be to withhold 81
billion of the aid (nalf the total earmarked for
the NATO build-up in the coming fiscal year,
until there is full ratification Of the treaty to
set up the European Defense Community and
its projected six-nation supranational army.
Only West Germany has ratified the treaty
thus far. The other signatories- France, Italy,
Belgium the Netherlands and Luxembourg
are not likely to do the same until next fall at
the earliest, and one or another Of them may
not do it until much later than that. In the
meantime, however, the North Atlantic Treaty
Organization-within whose framework the
EDO army is to be organiZed-must 60 forward
with its imperative defensive effort, which Is
dependent in large measure on our MSA aid.
Accordingly, that effort is bound to be adversely
affected if the mandatory Withholding provi-
sion of the House bill becomes effective.
But even more important than this is the
fact that the House bill would be meat for
Communist propagandists abroad who capt.
talize on every opportunity to smear the United
States as "warmongering, imperialist" power
that employs its money to pressuDe or bludgeon
its "puppet" allies into following its orders"
or else. Clearly, If we conditioned 81 billion of
our aid on the effectuation of the EDO we
would be leaving ourselves wide open to that
kind of talk. At the same time, we would be
foolishly overlooking the reality that the world
Is in dangerously fluid state and that we must
still have mutual defense through NATO with
or without the EDO.
SO the Senate will be doing a good days
work If it adopts its own bill or knocks out the
Houses Withholding provision. Short of that,
it should at least follow Senator Tafts COM
promise suggestion not to make this matter
q compulsory thing but to leave 1t entirely to
the discretion Of the President.

general and I know nothing of Korea.
but do know the potentialities of the
bomb. Just two of them stopped one
of the most fendish and frenzied armies
of modern times-Japan. The thou
sands of Chinese troops fighting in
Korea went out of their way to look for
trouble. BY that action they opened
themselves to attack by atomic bombs
on their homeland. Can it be doubted
that had half the bombs loosed on
Yucca Flat been dropped on principal
cities of China and on Chinese arsenals
and supply routes, an end would have
come quickly to the Korean war?
