that luggage is "matkatavarat"
and that ito Tornio'' comes up
as "Tornion." When it came to
ascertaining whether the stuff
could remain ''at TorRio" until
my arrival, spent Is minutes
trying to find the case that fit
ted. The word that resulted was
''Tornissa.
Menus became a daily night

to how TO get anything TO eat

of provincial Firms there is pre-.
cious little capacity for accom-
mediation 10 the vagaries OF the
foreign traveller. Eating hours
are the initial problem. Next to
the lcelanders, | have found no
Scandinavian people less inclin-
ed to get up in the morning.
Aside from coffee, little can be
secured before IL AM. when
something called an "aamiainen"
is served. This is breakfast after
a fashion, with a heavy smorgas-
bord and beer. Films drinking
beer at 10 AM. as a breakfast
delicacy is a constantly repeated
scene the length and the breadth
of that remarkable country.
Swedish Sounds Homelike
The main meal, about 4 PM,
is really something, in quantity
and variety. The Firms have the
same phenomenal appetites as
all Scandinavians. Cold fish,
meats and salads pile up omi-
nously along with beer, aqusvit
or Schnaps and q sickeningly
sweet wine which seems to be
esteemed as particularly deli
cious.
Trying 10 get a ticket to a
cinema is an entire operation.
Finnish cinemas operate on fix

chased in advance. Negotiation

to pay, through one of these
frightful little windows half in

traveller.

left. All around the world, the

The great irony of it all was
that Berla, as part of his con-

Velopment, was responsible for
the information gathered by his
spies in the United States and
Britain, among them the Rosen-
bergs.

three people from Helsinki TO
Tornio who spoke anything that
remotely resembled anything
other than Finnish. Signs in
Swedish vanish as one leaves
Helsinki and everything - from
directions to newspapers ex-

languages the diligent and mag
inative traveller can cope because
certain number of basic words
manage TO remain the same, but
with Finnish there is no hope at
all. Hostility to Swedish has led
the Firms TO Feenize their
tongue with an energy and in
genuity worthy of a better cause.
The result is one of the really
great linguistic ventures of our
times.

for self-styled justice-seeking
liberals to go TO town. Protest
meetings, mammoth Commit
tee for a Fair Trial for Beria
would seem in order.
But Beria the Purger has been
purged, and the agitation which
flared up around the Rosen-
bergs has been strangely unable
TO rouse its conscience in his be-
half. OF course, Beria may al
ready have been killed, and be-
sides, all this is foolishnesa any
how. For the communists wanted
nothing better than the death of
julius and Ethel Rosenberg: peo-
pie mean nothing to them, and
the Rosenberg children just
made for a good emotion-rousing
appeal. And if either or both Of
the spies had been granted Glenn
ency, the Reds would have been
Sorely disappointed. All they
wanted was new propaganda
angle - heroic m martyrs of
American injustice" - so they
could spread their hatre d
throughout the world.
But in the long run, the whole
affair is probably great com
pliment TO the United States:
The Rosenbergs received a fair
trial, were convicted by a jury
of their peers, and their case
went through 27 months of COM
plicated review. In Russia, Law
remit Beria was accused: there
fore he was guilty. The wolves
rushed in to tear him to pieces
and that was that.

WASHIlNGTON LETTER

WASHINGTON NC) - The
double execution of julius and
Ethel Rosenberg in the electric
chair last June 10 brought to a
close q months of proceedings
in which every resource OF the
law was explored. The Rosen-
bergs had been convicted of
espionage by the unanimous vote
OF II jurors. The death sentence
pronounced by Federal Judge
Irving r. Kaufman was apprais-
ed several times by the us.
Court of Appeals, and upheld.
The case came before the Su.
preme Court OF the United States
seven times.
In these proceedings, Julius
and Ethel Rosenberg received
every protection available under
the democratic processes OF jus
tice.
OF course. all this might APP
pear old stuff, just another page
in the annals of American juris-
prudence, except that two souls
were sent before their Eternal
Judge seemingly unrepentent.
But il isn't. The RoSenbergs
attracted worldwide attention,
becoming perhaps the cause cell
ebre OF the era. They were the
first spies sentenced to death in
peacetime in the history of The
United States. And they had two
small sons. The Holy Father
himself expressed concern for
the couple on two occasions.
But the big noise came from

INQUIRY CORNER

Q. What good did it do II
Christ redeemed uS and noe cam
still be lost? | belieue that he
irho belieues aud is baptized
SlaH be Sa0ed (Mdrk 1870
A. The redeeming death of
Christ made salvation possible
for all. but it did not destroy
mans freedom. We have the be-
ginning of eternal life called
sanctifying grace) in our souls
by baptism, but the New Testa-
ment is full of references to
Christ's further commands. In
St Matthew'S Gospel Q0:38) we
read: And he who does not take
up his cross and follow me, is
not worthy of me-" ST. Paul
wrote to the Corinthians: There
fore let him who thinks he
stands take heed lest he fall"
and this was addressed to baptiz-
ed believers. st. James concludes
long passage on the subject
(2:14-26): you see that by works
man is justified, and not by
faith only"
Q. What happens to unbdp-
tied infdnts2 Do tl,ey 90 TO
heaoen? If not, aohy fot?.
A. The Creator of all things
and all men has been good
enough TO adopt men as His chill
dren. For this amazing gift He
places a simple basic condition:
"Amen, amen. ! say to thee, UNI
less man be born again of water
and the Spirit, he cannot enter
into the kingdom of Cod" John
3:5). We do not know what hap
pens to unbaptized infants, but
they cannot enter heaven. The
good God certainly can be trust
ed to love them more than we do.
Theologians have generally con
cluded that they enjoy life of
natural happiness.
Q. Where can obtain a list
Of ChriStidn names?
A. There are several pamph-
let's which give lists of Chris
tian names as is Ii a Saints
Name?" (Dunne-Integrity Sup
ply, Chicago). Lives of the Saints
such as Buffers. Engfebert's or
the Book of Saints" compiled by
the Benedictine Monks of Rams
gate provide a good source of
names and information. A daily
Missal or even a Church caIen-
dar gives the name of the saint
OF the day. For Baptism the
priests advice is always avail
able in the matter Of choosing a
patron saint for the one TO be
baptized.
Q. Do ne hare any Of the or
tgandl copies of the Ner0 TeStd-
ment books? If not how do ne
kttol0 that ne hare authentic
copies?
A. The authenticity of the
New Testament is assured by an
uninterrupted series of detailed
and precise historical testimon-
les. From Papias, bishop of HER
apolis and disciple of the Apost-
les (early ccnd century,
through such authorities as ST.
henaeus d40-202 ADJ there is
abundant evidence of the histor-
ical truth of the books. They are

Ocracoke, July 6. = Ocracoke
Island residents will long re-
member July 4, 1858 because of
the wonderful hometown cele-
bration on that day. Histori-
cally the celebration might have
been in honor of the 200th ami
versary of the appointment of
town here, since the Colonial
Assembly passed an Act in 1853
making both Ocracoke and it's
neighbor, Portsmouth, towns.
And the history of the Island
goes further back than that, for
the Colonial Legislature of 1715
had purchased land on the Island
for the maintenance of pilots who
had settled here. And, going
still further back, historical re-
cords indicate that on June %,
1885, one of the Raleigh Exped-
itions en- route to Roanoke Island,
made its first landfall here.
But actually the July 4th,
1853 celebration had no designs
on perpetuating history; it was
just grand, hometown affair,
first suggested last April by
Marvin Howard, native of the
Island, happily retired here after
years of service with the U. S.
Army Engineers - a man who
believes that everyone likes to
have a good time now and then.
Of course Pony Penning is an
annual event on the Fourth, and
Capt. Howard was particularly
interested in this because his
father, Homer Howard, was one
of Ocracoke's famous horsemen
in the old days. And to follow the
old-time custom, the Pony Pen
ming this year was on the harbor
shore directly west of Silver
Lake Inn, and the ponies were
started at daybreak from the
northern end of the Island down
the east shore to the Coast Guard
Station point. In the old days be-
fore the harbor shore was lined
with docks and buildings, the
ponies came right along the
shore, but this year they were
driven straight down Ocracoke's
paved road which borders the
Harbor. 1t was stirring sight to
watch the herd of galloping pom
les round the road into the corral
not a pony lost at the entrance
corral. A small fleet of visiting
yachts in the harbor had natural
grandstand seats for the event.
Afttr that, the usual branding,
selling, and releasing ran on
through the day. Crowned Queen
