President Eisenhower denial
of the Rosenberg plea is no oc-
casion either for exulting or for
bitter clamor. If anyone feels
sense of jubilation because this
pitiable pair will now die, let him
search his heart for whatever it is
that kindles such a fire out of
such tragic materials.
But if I call the whole Rosen-
berg case a tragic one, do not
mean that there has been any
miscarriage of justice. This is
no Sacco-Vanzetti frameup or
martyrdom. It is a shabby story,
that has assumed world import
ance, of warped personalities
dying a meaningless death for
the Kremlin masters who despise
them.
One can feel a consuming anger
against those who h ave coldly
used these two who will die
used them first to steal atomic in
formation, whether its importance
be major or minor; then used
them again in order to daub all
over the globe the crude Red lie
of an anti-Jewish frameup. One
can only feel compassion for the
two orphan children who will be
left, and for the perverse inten-
sity which makes the parents
walk into the darkness hugging
the illusion that they have kept
the faith.
It is too late to quarrel over the
righteousness or wrongness of
President Eisenhower's decision.
AS you read his statement, you
find it hard to escape the feeling
that he somehow missed the point.
What the President points out is
obvious enough; that the crime
was serious, that the Rosenbergs
were given due process of law
all through the progress of the
case. that there is no question of
their guilt, that there is no new
evidence and no mitigating cir
cumStances.
Why then did so many people
hope the President would COM

The Board hopes to continue such
a program for those parents who

dergarten registration will be held
on Tuesday, May 26th, 1853, from
900 a. m. until 1900 and from
100 until 300 p. m, in the ele-

the change-Over with Mr.. Daniels
prior to the meeting and that Mr..
Daniels understood the sitution.
Mr.. Daniels will continue in his
general managership until the end
of June
