Firmness Pays off

Baltimore City officials apparently have
broken a strike by city laborerS which had
stopped garbage and trash collections for two
weeks and which had hampered operation of
the public schools.
The strike was broken when the city au-
thorities after fruitless negotiations. concluded
that the time had come to give first considera-
ton to the needs of the people of Baltimore.
An ultimatum was issued notifying the strikers
that they would be fired if they did not return
to their jobs. Recognition of the union-a local
of the AFL teamSters-was withdrawn, and
notice was served that the city would no longer
collect dues for the union. In other words, the
men return to work in nonunion status and
the union itself is out of the picture
This will seem like strong medicine to those
who believe a union can do no harm. But
strong medicine was necessary in this instance,
for the issue raised by the Baltimore strike
came down to question Of whether the local

In this way the charmed circle grows.
There is a regular progression in
bird watching. as in most human en-
deavors, which we sometimes call
sports.
There is the beginning, and the set
ting down to the long run.
Finally, sometimes, comes a waning
of the interest.
Here, the unexpected helps. Even
the bored bird watcher will never cease
to thrill at the sight of some beautiful
bird close at hand, even though he has
seen it million times before. he
thinks; million times. all to the same
purpose, and a fine one.
We would issue warning to persons
first attracted to the birds. Take it
easy. Do not let enthusiasm run away
with you. No matter how much the
beauty, beauty Is an evanescent thing,
in birds as elsewhere. Do not overdo.
Do not take the birds too seriously,
but seriously enough. let us put it, be-
cause they need your friendship over
the years, and for their sake you must
not blunt your interest. Be their good
friend, not one year. or two years. but
always, especially in the cold.

DisIoyoI Teachers

The Senate Internal Security Sub
committee recently made three excel
lent recommendation to correct Com
munist inf1ltration of the teaching pro-
fession. One of these should be imme-
diately adopted by Montgomery County
public school officials ito rid the schools
under their jurisdiction of all Commu-
mist teachers"
I refer to the subcommittee third
recommendation that boards of educa-
ton study and undertake programs ito
rid the schools under their jurisdiction
of Communist teachers" The county
school people have buried their heads
in the innocuous sands of Indifference
while Communist and fellow traveller
teachers have daily gone about the ne
farious business of un-American in
doctrination Of youths in county public
schools.
Already, two Montgomery County
teachers have been exposed by the
House Un- American Activities Commit
tee, and the Indifferent superintendent
and Board Of Education were thereby
practically forced to dismiss them.
Otherwise, they would still be drawing
pay as supposedly worthwhile county
teachers. AS of this date no one can say
with certainty how many county teach
ers would be subject to dismissal for
disloyalty if some kind Of investigation
were to be made by county authorities.
Teachers of questionable loyalty
could be exposed and removed quite
easily by a sincere and energetic Board
of Education motivated by a spirit of

for the Senator is a respected lawyer
and, as former president of the Ameri-
can Bar Association, he acquired q ma
tional reputation in legal circles. In
brief, he is not one to introduce bills
for the fun of it, and he is fully aware
that there are legal precedents for his
present action.
AS Marylander, would like to cau-
ton the Senator and the residents of
Washington to remember that with
every privilege there likewise comes an
obligation. Most citizens of the Free
State are proud of their State, while at
the same time admitting that it does
have many limitations. We nonetheless
feel that citizenship in our State is
privilege and one which we will not be
willing to extend unless specified obli-
cations are assumed. These specifica-
tionS could only be worked out by the
most qualified men from the District
and Maryland.
Unless Maryland's position in this
matter is justly considered, however,
most of her residents will probably feel
as did the Baltimore Sun last year when
the same bill was introduced: 1--WE don't
want her: you can have her; she's too
fat for U.S." (Meaning, of course, the
DiStrict?)

This and That

Wildbirds seem particular friends in
the winter.
Someway. the cold gives them a di-
menSion of sympathy.
Many cold-hearted person, looking
out window, suddenly realizes that
it must be. truly, 'cold out there"
The next step, of course, Is to feel
sorry for the birds in the cold.
The next step is to put out something
for them to eat.
So another home bird watcher is
born.
In time the novelty may wear of, but
while it lasts, watching the birds be-
comes as interesting as any other Of the
smaller sports.
1t is not at all necessary, as some
would have you think. to join any other
group of enthusiasts, or to go on long
walks in the cold when you do not like
walking.
Here is one sport in which one
observer is all that is needed for it is
q matter of mind and heart. and such
matters often seem to go best when
done alone.
The lone-wolf observer Is, we believe,
the best observer.
He sees, and he understands.
No sharing with others gets in the
way, unless, of course, he wants to
share his discoveries.
Usually he does.
A cardinal in the snow Is too beau
