Blodensburg Flood Relief

It has dawned on Maryland at last that
the disgraceful Bladensburg flood problem may
be a continuing one for many years If its
solution is to be dependent on action by the
Federal Government. The States watchful-
waiting policy has been abandoned, judging
from recommendation made to the General
Assembly by the State Roads Commission If
the recommendation is approved and supported
by adequate funds, the recurrent blocking Of
U. S. Route by overdowing waters Of the
Eastern Branch will be thing of the past.
For too many years Maryland has seemed
to regard the Peace Cross floods as concern
chiefly of Congress and the Army Engineers.
The Army Engineers have gone as far as they,
can in working out plans for flood control in
that area, but Congress always has baked at
the cost of the project-estimated to be In the
neighborhood Of $13 million. So the floods
have come and gone with monotonous fire.
quency. Now, however, Maryland is about
ready to proceed with road lifting plan that,
at least, would keep traffic out of the water at
Bladensburg. This would provide no relief for
harassed property owners in the area however.
They still must look to Congress and the Army
for help. The highway work is only an essen
tial first step in a long-overdue food-relief
program

Spires Of the Spirit
Frozen MELODY

There is lovely story woven not out
of fiction, but growing out Of one Of
the expeditions to the south polar
regions generation ago. The vessel
involved was the good ship Fran. In
those days, the hardy boats battering
their way through the ice barriers were
not heated as are the more modern
carriers. On this adventurous trip one
of the party took along his pet canary
The cage was hung in the open. chilly
space into which all the cramped cabins
opened. In that frigid atmosphere. one
might assume that the little feathered
creature, exiled from its native, sunny
CLINE. might have refused to sing ca.
nary songs. But, to the linbounded de-
light Of those men entonnbed by white
walls Of ice. Is one Of them put it when
he returned: Our golden chorister
never sang with more gayety and aban-
don than when the ship was in the
midst Of that vast ice expanse. He sang
as though his little throat would burst,
even near the South Pole" This ca
narys melody was not frozen In that
zero world.
Now we have all been told in nursery
days Of kings party involving singing
birds. But. on this occasion the tenn
perature was as torrid as a baked pie.
However. the birds co-operated in the
festive arrangements, for when the pie
was opened the four and twenty black
birds all began to sing doubtless to the
royal delight. At least, there was no
danger of frozen melody spelling that
kingly feast.

A dozen years after the close of the
War Between the States, Gen. u. s.
Grant came to the beginning of his
second term as President. The inaug-
ural ball was staged in huge 33O-foot
structure erected for the occasion in
Judiciary Square. The interior decora-
tions were spectacular. A unique fea-
ture in preparation for the gala night
was the placing of several hundred
Gagged canaries inside the great hall.
These feathered songsters were counted
on to lift rapturouS notes, soaring even

best-laid plans Of mice and men go oft
awry.
At Grants inaugural bali not a ca
nary added its expected warble to
the presidential oratorio. Each Of
those hundreds Of birds was utterly
mute. because every member of that
yellow surpliced choir was utterly mis-
erable. The trouble was that every

cept the weather. and on that March
day the temperature was down to near
zero. That polar setting Stifled songs.
The notes anticipated from the bright
winged chorus died in the throatS Of
the shivering canarieS Both birds and
dancers were victims of what one called

Polish Underground

It was with sorrow that I read in
The Star of January 18 the statement
of Morton Puner, included in his other
wise excellent article, that the Polish
anti-Nazi underground Armja Krajowa
was anti-Semitic.
This sweeping statement directed
against one of the most efficient allied
underground organizations in World
War II is identical with the Soviet
accusations at the time when the
Communist secret police started liqui-
dating its members.
Authorities of the Polish Under
ground State. as well as thousands of
Polish farmers, workers and intelli-
gentsia, were either collaborating or
helping the defenSelesS, unfortunate
Jews. This was being done at the risk
of life, since the punishment for pro-
tecting Jew was death. Most Of the
$4,000 Jews still living in Poland and
now again tragically exposed to the
Soviet persecution, survived hidden,
protected and helped by the popu-
lation and the underground.
At the end of 1942, Polish under
ground authorities sent a special
courier to the Polish government in
London and the allied leaders in order
to report on the unparalleled tragedy
of the Jewish masses and ask for help.
The most prominent allied person.
alities, President Roosevelt included,
and the Jewish leaders in Great Britain
and the United States, were secretly
approached. Only history will de-
termine whether the outside world
could not have done more to help the
defenseless Jews of Europe as well as
those who tried to assist them.
I can speak about this problem with
some authority. since I was that
courier sent by the Polish underground
as well as by the leaders of the Jewish
Socialist Party Bund and the Zionists
at that time collaborating not only
with each other but also with the
Polish underground authorities. The
problem was described by me with the
limitations dictated by the war security
in the book, STORY Of Secret State"
d944).
There is no national, racial or re-
ligious group in Europe which suffered
during World War II as much as the
Jews. No one can ever deny it. To
forget it would be inhuman. However,
to make out of it an argument for
some likes or dislikes is really unfair,

Senator Fenwick's Hat Goes In

The announcement by State Senator Fem
wick Of Arlington that he is a candidate for
Governor Of Virginia foreShadows q race that
will be of more than normal interest to Old
Dominion voters in the populous areas south Of
the Potomac River. For this is the first time
that this rapidly growing section of the State
has had serious gubernatorial candidate
emerge from its own ranks.
The Fenwick announcement Is also Of
unusual interest because it presages a lively
battle within the ranks of the Democratic
organization headed by Senator Byrd Repre-
sentative Stanley from the fifth congressional
district, in the southwestern part of the State,
has already announced his gubernatorial candi-
dacy, and there have been reports that ]. Lind
say Almond, State Attorney General, may also
toss his hat into the ring. In this event the
July primary would be race among three
candidates, all of whom are identified with
the Byrd organization. and a run-off primary
probably would be required in August to de-
termine the winner.
There is also a possibility that Delegate
Robert Whitehead of Nelson County, an anti
Byrd man, may get into the fight. This would
complicate the picture, to say the least, but
since Mr.. Whitehead would have little chance
In the recently provided-for run-off, there is
considerable expectation that he might prefer

In this situation the role of Senator Byrd
would become of high Importance If he
should actively enter the picture, it probably
would be in Representative Stanley's behalf,
and that would have a significant but not
necessarily decisive, effect. IT, on the other
hand, Senator Byrd decides to stay out of the
fight, wide-open race would be in prospect

Byrd withheld his support from Governor
Stevenson, and that created considerable bitter

the line for the national ticket. Mr.. Stanley
and Mr.. Almond indorsed the Stevenson
Sparkman ticket but did not campaign in
its behalf. Senator Fenwick, alone among
the organization hopefuls, was an active sup
porter of the national ticket. How much effect
this will have in July, both on Senator Byrds
influence if he should intervene, and on the
political fortunes of the gubernatorial aspirants.
is beyond even guesswork at this time. About
the most that can be said is that the race. as

and simple one uttered by the Presi-
dent himself. It was not what the
President said in that prayer but the
fact that he said it himself and for
himself. The New Testament tells of
two men who went up to the Temple
to pray, one Pharisee, the other a
publican. The publican made quite
prayer so far as liturgical devotion
goes, but the prayer that the world
still remembers and constantly refers
to, one that God-seeking people still
commend, consisted of just seven words
that went straight up from the bottom
of his heart to the Throne of Grace.
