EISENHOWER ON
ROSENBERGS
(Wallace Enterprise)

President Dwight D. Eisen-
hover, we think, expressed the
proper attitude on the death of
the Rosenbergs more effectively
than any member of the Supreme
Court. The President, knowing
there was much pressure being
brought to bear to have him in
tervene in the case, nevertheless
refused to do so. Sand he, in part;
&c. am convinced that the
only conclusion to be drawn from
the history of this case is that
the Rosenbergs have received the
benefit of every safeguard which
American justice can provide.
There is no question in my mind
that their original trial and the
long series of appeals constitute
the fullest measure of justice and
due process of the law"
Throughout the innumerabls
complications and technicalities
of this case, no judge has ever
expressed any doubt that they
committed most serious acts Of
espionage. Accordingly, only
most extraordinary circumstan-
ces would warrant executive in
PREVENTION in the case.
I am not unmindful of the fact
that this case has aroused grave
concern, both here and abroad
in the minds of serious people
aside from the consideration Of
law. In this connection, I car
only say that, by unreasonable
increasing the chances of atomic
war, the Rosenbergs may have
condemned to death tens of mil.
lions of innocent people all over
the world.
The execution of two human
beings is a grave matter. But
even greater is the thought Of
the millions of dead whose deatt
may be attributable to what
these spies have done :. :"

SUNDAY

A well intentioned young wo-
man wrote your scribe that she
was worried about said scribe's
soul. The reason: Cleaning beach
cottages on Sunday, between
the time one tenant leaves and
the next moves in. Yet the lady
didn't hesitate to take advantage
of that Sunday labor and move
into one of those selfsame cot
tages as soon as it was ready. 1t
is rather too bad that Sunday is
generally checking out and in
DAY at the beach, but most peo-
pies vacations begin at noon or
later Saturday and they don't
want to miss a minute of their
week beside the ocean. We know
of one cottage owner who has
changed the tenant-changing
date to Saturday and says she
has no complaints.

MINUS TEN POCKETS
The Beacon, Leonardtown, Md

Eight of the IL women mem
bers of Congress attended a lun-
cheon the other day to discuss
bills introduced in the House by
two of them, both from New
York, to abolish the 20 per cent
luxury" excise tax on women's
handbags. One was from Penn
sylvania and the five others from
the Middle West.
There is no question, said
Mrs. Edna F. Kelly, a Brooklyn
Democrat, author of one bill.
''but that this tax is discrimina-
tory" Mrs. Catherine st. George,
author of the other bill, agreed
with her.
Discriminatory" is right when
pocketless women have to have
several handbags to match their
varying costumes and be reposi-
tories for handkerchiefs, powder,
mirror, lipstick, small pocket
book, keys, memorandum and
whatnot, while the any-pocket-
ed man is untaxed on his sartor-
ial receptacles.
Even those brave lads vino
scorn to wear waistcoats (vestS,
if you prefer in winter have 10
repositories for personal belong
ings for each two-piece business
suit, of which it is to be presum-
ed that every male member of
Congress has at least three. The
suggestion of a pocket tax, which
would affect each 80 times would
evoke a roar that could be heard
across the Potomac.
The girls have made a good
point that a handbag isn't
luxury, and they ought to win,
regardless of ability to pay.
After all, the Boston Tea Party
did not take place because the
Colonials were unable to pay the
tax, but because they held it
unjust.

go SECOND SERMONS
BY FRED DODGE

TEXT: "You may be deceived you too much but
you will live in torment if you do not trust
enough" Frank Crane
An elderly man, well known for his penny pnching,
went to dentist to have tooth extracted The dentist
advised him to have it extracted the painless way.
He showed the old man his equipment for giving gas
to patient and explained that it would him fall
asleep for moment and before he awoe his tooth would
be out After slight resistance the msery old agreed
to being put to sleep Then he opened his purse.
"Oh' said the dentist kindly, you don't need to pay
now"
81 wasn't thinking of that the old replied "but
if you're going to put me to Sleep want to count my
money first"
All misers not money mad There are many nisers
who hoard little advantages They goat special priv
eges they acquire They demand their place line"
They rights They watch ealousy to see
that obtains anything they do have They
trust remaining forever bound by the chains of

SOLID COMFORT

Danny, the boss cat at the
Cats Meow, has taken over the
bathtub and was observed giving
herself good scrubbing. Most
of the time, she uses it for a bed,
it being cooler than the floor or
a chair. 1t is also a safe refuge
from the firing antics of Star
baby, the kitten, who isn't quite
big and strong enough to leap
into the tub with her mother.
Of course, the arrangement is a
little inconvenient for Danny's
human, who has to snatch a bath
