Saying he was calling "a spade
q spade" Mr.. Gewirtz listed
what he termed baseless argu-
ments Of the non-scheduled air
lines against the scheduled lines
and against the Civil Aeronau-
tics Board, which regulates
them. He said these include
charges that the scheduled lines
are heavily subsidized. are mo-
nopoliStic, have neglected air

ing on pioneering done by the
non-scheduled airlines.

Charges ''Filibuster."
A spokesman for the nom

as long as the time allotted him
and left no time for questions.

Young kittens are best taken care Of

The mother cat has no other way, in

In the artificial habitat of the human
house, she is fed, and so takes care Of

Kittens are best fed four times day,

I'VE heard the unmistakable cry of baby

For the second time in year, some
one had unloaded unwanted cats upon
us.
ION the kitchen window sill of our
first floor apartment, two shivering

their hunger and their chill. They were
far from ready to be weaned. Milk in a
saucer meant nothing to them. An eye

Possibly other people think we are

opinion, that someone who thinks he
can compromise with conscience had
chosen a sneak's way out OF his own
dilemma.

Of the serious trafic accidents-and that more

Two feelings, breakfast and sup
per, are better, and seem to suit the
household better, as well as being
more satisfactory to the cats.
After all, domesticated cats in
sense grow to partake Of the habits Of
their masters.
People eat three times day. so why
shouldn't their cats have at least two
meals?
From strictly human standpoint,
two meals for the family cats means
that they will be less restive. since food
has sedat,ve effect. in most cases.
The responsibility Of the household
cat is not large.
It is amazing that it can be taught
anything, because 1t is creature OF
many and imperious wishes, as stub
born as a billygoat or mule. and as in
sistent as dictator.
It's responsibility is wholly to itself.
and If human children are brought up
the same way, they are put down on
the animal level.
The cats stand four-square on their
own paws. creatures Of nature that
know no better; the question Of respon-
sibility for them is wholly academic.
They have no shoes to leave lying In
the gutter overnight, no splendid new
bicycles to leave out in the rain for
weeks, no sweaters or hats to sprinkle
around the sidewalks and streets. They
are untrammeled children of nature
whose greatest worry Is Q dog or Q
mean human.

be the best attainable so long as atomic

the civilization of which we are so in

There will come day when, reason
and conscience asserting themselves,
we will go forth on such a crusade as
men have never known: when we will
demand that our responsible leaders
spell out the essential requirements for
leashing the power of mans inventions
to the service and security of the world.
We are the seed of pioneers. Someday
we will lead the free world in breaking
across the boundaries Of present polit-
ical forms. and raise a standard to
which the wise and honest of all ma
tions everywhere can repair. From that
awakening will come the system of en-
forceable laws against aggression with
out which mankind is condemned either
to the continuation of world anarchy
or the destruction of society.
The American dream. of opportunity,
Of fellowship. of freedom under God.
