U. 5. Stand Conflicts
With Pope's Call for
War Criminal Code
BY the Assoeioted Press

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y, Oct.
3.-A call by Pope Plus XII to-
day for international laws to deal
with war criminals collided with
American sentiment against sub
mitting to any international
court or even ratifying the q. N.
genocide convention.
The 77-year-old leader of the
Roman Catholic church spoke at
Castel Gandolfo, his summer
residence, before jurists gathered
from many countries for the
Sixth international Congress of
Penal Law.
The need for international
penal law between nations holds
good in normal times. he said,
but" its urgency is particularly
evident in time Of war or of vio-
lent political disturbances"
Former President Harry Tru-
man and Justice Francis Biddle,
then the American member of
the Nuremberg War Crimes court,
initiated in 1946 a project sim
uar to that proposed by the Pope.
Stand Altered Since Then.
. In the chain of cold wartime
developments since then, the
United States position has been
altered to the view that a large
measure of national sovereignty
must be maintained. This would
rule out the transfer of crime
Judgment and punishment of
any international body now.
Russia, for much the same rea-
son, opposes such an interna-
tional court as menace to a
country'S sole right to deal with
crimes against it.
Mr.. Biddle proposed that Mr..
Truman ask the u. N. to start
codifying offenses against peace
and security of mankind, naming
aggression as a supreme crime,
as well as lesser violations of in
ternational law. The Nuremberg
principles were suggested as a
base.
Mr.. Truman agreed and asked
the U. NJ. through the United
States delegation, to start work
on such a code. Committees and
legal experts have been working
on the idea ever since, with the
project still in the hands of the
U. MS international law COM
mission.
Offensive War Denounced.
The Pontiff placed at the head
Of crimes which have interna-
tional consequences that of
making a modern war which is
not required by absolute neces-
sity Of self-defenSe and which
brings with it, as we can assert
without hesitation, unthipkable
ruin, suffering and horrors"
THE community of nations"
he said, must reckon with un-
principled criminals who, in or
der to realize their ambitious
plans, are not afraid to unleash
total war"
For this reason, the Pope said,
other countries have no alter
native but to get ready for the
day when they must defend
themselves" If they are to pre-
serve their most precious pos
sessions.
The right to be prepared, how
ever, the Pope said, Does not
in any way alter the fact that
unjust war is to be accounted
as (one) of the very gravest
crimes which international law
must prescribe, must punish with
the heaviest penalties"

The Results Should Be Helpful

There is considerable speechifying and res
oluting about juvenile delinquency these days,
not to mention the Senate investigation just
getting under way All such activities may pro-
duce some helpful suggestions. But it seems
to The Star that one of the highly worthwhile
undertakings in dealing with juvenile delin-
quency is the quiet study recently begun by the
Committee on Juvenile Crime of the Commits
sionerS' Council on Law Enforcement. This
small committee, under the craftsmanship of
Newell w. Ellison, is looking into weaknesses
in the system under which juveniles, charged
with some ofenSe, are arrested, prosecuted and
their cases disposed Of The committee is not
conducting search for Scapegoats. It is seek
ing, and, according to its recent progress report
1t is receiving, the cooperation of interested
agencies in assembling facts on which to base
recommended remedies for unsatisfactory pro-
cedureS, the results, rather than the causes, of
which are evident. The committee for example
has been invited by the Juvenile Court Judge
to attend sessions of the court and to learn first
hand of some of the difficulties experienced
there, with the idea of suggesting improvement,
not only in the functioning of the court itself,
but in its relationship with other agencies. The
committee seems to have adopted the role of
friendly adviser, rather than critic, and is apt
to make suggestions that will enlist general
support instead of provoking new controversies

On Labor Roidinq

There is long road yet to be travelled before
the Congress of Industrial Organizations and
the American Federation of Labor reach agree
ment by which these two great labor bodies
might peaceably be merged. But certainly one
of the fundamental steps is that which has now
been taken by each of them in convention
the approval of a resolution which would elm
mate the raiding of each others memberships
From the very beginning of the split in
American organized labor the front line of
battle has been the sector where individual
unions have engaged in bitter contest either to
hold or to capture industries or plants which
already are under contract with rival unions
Hundreds of strikes have resulted from such
tactics and the CIO resolution adopted in Cleve-
land this week was not overstating the case
when it said that an ending of this raiding
would materially benefit the entire Nation by
eliminating potent source of industrial unrest
and conflict"
The understanding now reached due to
become effective on January l, still must receive
specific Endorsement of member unions. There
are fears already that such indorserhent will not
be uniform and its rejection in one field is apt
to bring violations in others. 1t will be unfor-
tunate, however if irresponsible elements in
either of the big labor organizations deber-
ately dishonor the policy decisions which have
been adopted by the two conventions.

They Should Be Removed

There is only one satisfactory answer to the
question which the Bladensburg Town Council
will consider at special meeting tonight The
question is whether to continue on active duty
two police officers, one of them the chief of
police, who have been convicted by jury in
Circuit Court of mistreating a prisoner. Of
course these men should be removed from the
force forthwith not by outright dismissal,
then by suspension pending their appeals
The question should never have come before
the council, in the first place. Under similar
circumstances anywhere else in the country the
administration would have ousted the officers
as soon as the jury had found them guilty In
fact most cities and towns would have sus-
pended them from duty pending trial on the
charges. Yet neither course was pursued in the
case of Chief Bryan M. Dorsey and Private
Elmer Thompson, convicted last Monday by
Prince Georges County jury of assaulting a
prisoner last August in the county police sub
station at Hyattsville Both officers denied the
charges, but the jury found the evidence to be
conclusive of guilt.
After the trial. Mayor Otis L. Stevens told
reporters: "They (the policemen) are not sus-
pended and will not be unless and until the
Town Council so DEGREES" Hence the special
meeting tonight The council would be acting
counter to established municipal practice and
common sense if it permitted the convicted
officers to continue on duty.

It belongs to a very old group,
though by no means the oldest group
of living things.
It can stand pain, for instance, al
most with relish; some scientists say
it feels no pain, or very little.
An insect seems to be able to change
itself in a very puZzling but fascinat-
ing way to meet changing conditions in
it's environment.
That is why it was a mistake to give
up the older forms Of fly persecution.
There is some question whether these
insect-killing lamps one sees burning
in restaurants do not do more damage
to human tissue than to insects.
Certainly the end effects have not
been assessed by any one.
Though the sticky fy-paper was
effective, it seems to have no place in
todays home, with its picture win
dows (closed) and air conditioning.
Light furniture, light carpets and rugs
and draperies are no playthings for
baby with a piece of flypaper in his
hands
Yet many persons will sympathize
with our correspondent. and feel that
the return of fypaper to the home as
well as to public places would be good
thing. Maybe if enough persons
wanted it, it might be obtainable again.
Sprays seem better. to many, but the
trouble with sprays is that humans as
well as pets must inhale them as well
as flies. A spray is most democratic
thing, whereas a slab of sticky fly
paper was selective, being sweetened
to the fly taste.

Good Morning, Mrs. Bolton

Mrs. Frances Bolton, charming and capable
Congresswoman from Ohio has been carrying
on one-woman campaign to win friends and
influence people, namely, the Russians. AS an
American delegate to the United Nations Gen
eral Assembly, she is now able to report signifi-
cant progress-one of the Russian delegates
now says Good morning" to her in English, and
without froWn.
Mrs. Bolton did it all with little book
on how to learn English quickly and easily
which she has been handing out to the normally
Stern-faced delegates from Moscow. They are
thrilled Mrs. Bolton says with pride.
Quite apart from its implications with
regard to the cold war and global diplomacy,
Mrs. Bottoms strategy might have value even
closer at home. A frownleSs Good morning y
spoken in clear-cut English, would represent
quite an advance over some of the greetings
encountered in home and Office. A good morn

necessary one of listening to the sordid details

Juvenile Delinquency

One of the contributing causes to
juvenile delinquency is that many par
ents are so busy with other things that
they fail to teach their children respect
for authority, respect for law and order,
and respect for other peoples rights
and property. Another contributing
cause is uncensored radio and televi-
sion, vividly depicting murder, theft,
assault, high-jacking, illicit love and
the eternal triangle; to this add the
comic strips and books clarifying cor
ruption. When youth hears and sees
these abnormal stories so graphically
and so intriguingly illustrated, his emo
tions are aroused. and they seem to
him the way of life.
Idleness might be considered another
contributing factor. can idle brain is
the devils Workshop" A schedule of
study, work, and play should be ar
ranged for the best interest of soul,
mind and body. All play and no work
mokes Jack bad boy.
Eliminate the "laissez faire"-self-eX-
preston, self determination to do what
he wants to do, no inhibitions, so
successfully launched about thirty years
ago, with such direful results. Teach
children in the home, the church and
the school that the way to happiness is
obedience to the Ten Commandments
and the Golden Rule. Do not wait until
the sharp stinging whip of the law
teaches in the school of life.

Design for Smithsonian

The current controversy over the
design of the proposed Smithsonian
Gallery of Art in Letters to The Star"
in it's discussion Of the merits of modern
functional as against traditional achi-
lecture, seems to have overlooked the
primary question.
am not an art critic, and cannot
give an opinion as to the merits OF the
Saarinen design. although I am i'm
pressed by the fact that this design
was the winner of national competi-
ton. and that its creator has designed
such undoubted works of art as the
Jefferson Memorial in st. Louis, the
auditorium of the Massachusetts, Insti-
tute of Technology in Boston. and the
General Motors Research Center in
Detroit. Whether or not what is good
for General Motors is good for the
country" think we can safely assume
that General Motors did not spend 5000
million without great confidence in the
ability of the projects designer.
What your correspondents seem to
have overlooked is the fact that
building to house the National Collec-
ton of Fine Arts is a necessity, and
the Saarinen design is, in the opinion
of the judges, the best for that neces-
sary building. After Is years, isn't it
time for the critics to produce better
design or to stop using the arguments
about Saarinen'S use of the modern
functional style as an excuse to prevent
the building of the Smithsonian Gal
lery?
Since the Saarinen design represents
a trend Illustrated by the new District
Courthouse, the General Accounting
Ofice>Building, the Pentagon and many
others, perhaps the best outcome would
be to have the contrast between the
Smithsonian Gallery and the Mellon
Gallery afford the people an opportunity
to form their own judgments concerning
the respective merits of the two
artistic ideologies.

LOS ANGELES. - This Sprawling
city and its fabulous commercial and
residential developments leave the

Even the real estate broker accus-
toned to viewing average cities and
their opportunities with cool detach-
ment is left bug-eyed with wonder.
Several thousand such brokers as
sembled here a few days ago to
attend a convention of the National
Association of Real Estate Boards. But
the sessions were dwarfed for many of
them by the immensity of the sights

To any one living in the East. Metro

You can drive for nearly SO miles from
one end to the other and still be in

In the Metropolitan Area Of Los
Angeles and Orange Counties, indeed,
there are SO cities and more than 200
other distinct communitieS-most Of
them contiguous, with no open land
between, and all seeming to represent
one massive built-up complex OF almost
inconceivable proportions.
Automobiles, highways and space are
compounded here in an elixir that has
astounding effect on people. Distance
contracts and seems to have an en-
tirely new meaning to residents of this
region. Few around L. A. think it un-
usual to travel so or rs miles-al
within the built-up area-to go to a
dance or dinner party, or even movie.

Pile, then came back and went over to
Alameda to pick up a girl and then to
Pasadena to a dance. We travelled 100
miles just getting there, and then took
everybody home afterwards. We drove
200 miles in all and never thought much
about it,"
