THE DESERVED PRICE OF
TREASON IS DEATH
Editor, virginian-Pilot:

Editor, Virginian-P Pilot:
1t is apparent from the COM
motion which is being raised
over the scheduled execution of
the convicted traitors, Julius and
Ethel Rosenberg, that too many
of our people have become too
soft mentally, physically and
spiritually. The price deserved
for treason to ones country is
death and as there is no question
about the guilt of the Rosenbergs
it is my sincere hope that the
sentence in their case will be
carried out without further de-
lay.
For too long it has been clear
ly obvious to all loyal citizens of
the United States that when we
ferret out the Rosenbergs and
the Alger Kisses from their holes
in the United Nations, the Fed
eral government, our colleges,
cur public school system and in
virtually all ranks Of society, we
treat them too much like human
beings rather than like the rattle
snakes they have proven them
selves to be.
For the future welfare of our
country, may we soon learn that
the only good Communists are
the dead ones for only when we
realize this and act accordingly,
will we be keeping faith with
the thousands of true Americans
who have died in Korea in order
that We, who survive them may
continue to live in freedom and
Self-respect.

NEGRO MAN IN NORFOLK
INSPIRED BY OUR SERMON
Reprinted from Our Paper

To The Editor:
read in the Sunday Issue Of
the Virginian Pilot a Fathers
Day Sermon composed by you.
Iwant you to know that the Ser
mon in question touched me as
nothing has for many years
Why? because I have lived
through the same experience
that you have lived through, but
did not have the ability to des-
cribe my feelings as you describ-
ed yours. It was the ambition of
my father (although he was born
a slave) to give his children the
best the world had to offer. But
when i was IA years of age he
was stricken with a stroke from
which he never recovered but
eventually died. I could not COM
prehend the depth of my fathers
thought when the burden of life
weighed heavy upon his should
ers.
After was married and my
family began to- increase, my
eyes became open and l began
to see, I decided that I would
try to do for my children what
my father wanted to do for his.
So being inspired with the same
spirit that you described in your
Fathers Day Sermon I set out
to do the job. Now / am proud
to be able to say that I have sue
ceeded in preparing my children
to meet the problems of life.
Following is the present status of
my children. My youngest son
is fighting in the front line in
Korea, my next young son is an
Air Conditioning and Refriger-
alton Technician in Philadelphia;
my only daughter is. Assistant
Civil Service Examiner for the
City Of New York; and my old
est son is Supervisor of the night
custedial force at the New York
City Hospital. So you see just
why your Sermon thrilled me as
I THANK GOD that the spirit
that is moving you now, moved
me years ago. am now 78 years
old and going strong.

SEA SCOUTS GROUP
OF PHILADELPHIA
w ISIT BELHAVEN
Nine of the Northern Boys
Making 1900 Mile Trip
in Small Boat

Sea Scouts of the .Belhaven
area got thrill last week when
the Sea Gypsy, with crew of
nine Philadelphia Sea Scouts,
put into port at Belhaven on Fri
day and tied up at the River
Forest Manor's pier.
Formerly a captains gig, the
converted Sea Gypsy, left Phila-
delphia on June 18th for a seven
weeks cruise with Miami as her
destination, making round trip
of $500 miles. Skipper Marvin
Epstein stated that he believes
this to be the first voyage of
such distance to be undertaken
by any Sea Scout troop.
Before reaching Belhaven, the
group, one of nine Philadelphia
units, made stops at Annapolis
and Elizabeth City. They report
ed a good trip except for a rough
crossing of the Albemarle Sound
on Thursday night.
Docking here on Friday morn
ing, the boys took advantage of
recreational facilities at the Com
munity Center during the day,
got acquainted with the local
girls, and were the guests of j.
L. Lancaster at the Cameo Thea
ter that night. Skipper Epstein
said that he and his crew were
impressed with the friendliness
of the Belhaven people and plan
ned to stop again on the return
trip.
The Sea Gypsy's crew is made
up of nine young men, ranging
in age from fifteen to nineteen,
all but two being high school
or college students. Epstein is a
teacher at the Laboratory School
of Temple University. in Phila-
delphia.
The visit inspired the newly
Sea Scouts of Bel
haven, who have recently &C.
quired similar captains gig
and are busily at work making it
ready for use. Now they are
looking forward more eagerly
than ever to their first voyage.

MONEY-WISE TIE
CHOICE WAS EXCELLENT
(Mooresville Tribune)

(MQoreSVllle 4rlbune)
We see where Christine Jor-
gensen, the ex-male, EXCL who
was recently transformed into a
woman through the wonders of
modern surgery, made her vaud-
evi1le debut in Los Angeles. Last
week she also appeared on tele-
vision.
Miss Jorgensen must be COM
fort to those who contend that
being an "old maid isn't so bad
certainly better than being an
old bachelor. She is rare ex-
ample of "a person who had the
choice of remaining a low-salar-
led male of becoming a high-sal-
aried, unmarried female. She
chose the latter.
We think we're safe in labell-
ing Miss Jorgensen as future
spinster, since she elected to
publicize her marvellous trans
formation and appears to be
capitalizing on it. The publicity
will scare off any potential sui
tor, but the money deriving from
it will undoubtedly compensate
for the slight inconvenience of
celibacy.

The chorus began as small
off-duty recreational activity
started by the regimental chap
lains. When it grew to its pre-
sent size, DIR. Friedrich Leinert,
a German musician and compos-
er, was hired to direct the group.
Private Enron, who entered the
Army in November 1851, took
basic training at Fort Dix, N. J.
He arrived in Europe in August

morning dew, perspiring freely
in the midday heat, and aching
fiercely in the region of the
back and shoulders. And at
quittin' time late in the after
noon there was a red welt across
the shoulder where the pick
sack strap had chafed.
This country boy knew what
it was like to walk a mile and a
half to school in late summer,
trudging up and down a dirt road
that cleaned white-hot in the
sun, but which in the winter
turned to chocolate mud that
sometimes seemed to have nc
bottom to it. &
He learned to guess the wealth
er pretty well, and knew the
difference between a friendly
rain cloud and a storm cloud. He
learned to love the rain, be-
cause it meant the difference be-
tween a good crop and bad
crop. And he had learned early
in life that the family's food
supply depended upon the within
of the weather-in good crop
years there was plenty to eat;
in bad crop years the pickings
were lean.
These are some of the things,
we think, that all country boys
learn-or at least, used to learn,
We know that times have chang
ed, and the country boy of to-
day doesn't have the hardships
that the country boy of yester-
day had. But life still isn't bed
of roses for many rural young
ster. The songs of the birds and
the buzzing of the bees are just
a small phase Of his day-by- day
existence.

TIE COUNTRY BOY STILL
HAS NO BED OF ROSES
(Mooresville Tribune)

(MooreSvllle Tribune)
Recently we read a nostalgia
piece called what a Country
Boy Knows"
The country boy knows how
to run through briars, where
the bluebirds nest, and all about
the flowers, the birds and the
bees. He knows which kind of
bee won't sting, and he under
stands the sad-sweet song OF
the turtle dove. All this, and
more, the country boy knows.
So said the article.
We enjoyed the little piece a
great deal. It reminded us of a
country boy we once knew. He
knew everything the country
boy in the article knew, and
something more besides.
He knew what it's like to get
out of bed before the sun, walk
barefooted through the morn
ing dew to drive the mules up
from the pasture. And he knew
what it's like at the tender age
of ten to spend fourteen hours
a day, five and six days a week,
hoeing crabgrass from around
cotton stalks. He got a good sun
tan that the city folks would
envy, but he also had a perpet-
ual pain in the neck-the occu-
pational disease peculiar to
cotton-choppers.
This country boy that we
knew had mixed emotions at the
approach of the harvesting sea-
son. Cotton-pickin' time meant
money to jingle in the pockets,
and new clothes to wear. But it
also meant shivering in the early

MANY HAVE DIED BECAUSE
OF TIE ROSENBERG SPIES

Qn the Virginia Pilot
Editor, Virginia-Pilot:
I fail to see why there should
be any argument about the
Rosenbergs. Anyone who plots
against his or her country de-
serves to die
They should have thought
about their two lovely children
along with all the other innocent
children in these United States
before they planned to sell their
country short.
My late husband left two love-
ly children, only h@died fighting
for his country, not against it.
I think the President has more
important things to take care of
than to intercede for two con-
victed spies who should have
paid for their crime long ago.

e. M. Howe
The story is told of teacher of grammar who asked

asked ~ Az
what is the opposite of sorrow?"
"Joy" was the quick answer"
That's right she said, snow what is the opposite of
misery?"
Happiness" said the student.
That's correct" said the teacher "Now give me the
opposite of woe" Az 9tRvftSf
"Giddyap"' responded the pupil promptly
When lost in tangle of unhappness, don't sit down
and weep Keep moving Moving in any direction will bring
you to the path that leads away from nhappness Strid
ing on YOU leave sorrow behind. New horizons stretch
before you inviting challenging. Run to meet them.
Sorrow wringng its hands will never catch you Those
who have studied in the school of life will tell you with
out exception that the opposite of WOE is always

Alaska Airlines
Announces New
Low Freight Rates

SEATTLE-NeW low air freight
rates within Alaska were announ-
ced today by Alaska Airlines. A
drop of four and five cents a
pound became effective Septem-
Der 8, on flights between An
chorage and % interior points, be-
tween Farewell and points, be
tween McGrath and 2 points. A
new low rate of eight cents a
pound also takes effect between
Fairbanks and Seattle-Portland,
southbound.
Ralph Starkey, airline vice
president and traffic head, said
Alaska shippers would welcome
the new economy rates not only
as cheaper cargo transportation
but as a general aid to business
throughout the territory. He said
Alaska Airlines officials consider
in helping build Alaska's future.
"The added cargo tonnage will
eventually make possible in
creased flight service for both pas
sengers and freight. This makes
all outlying points more accessible
to larger centers such as Anchor
age and Fairbanks" Starkey
added.
Under the new schedule freight
may be flown via Alaska Airlines
from Anchorage to Nome, Moses
Point and Unalakleet for 9 cents
pound as against IA cents for
merly. Anchorage merchants may
ship to Candle, Deering, Golovin,
and White Mountain for Is cents
as against the earlier rate Of 20
cents.
