1854, or what is actually going on
at that moment Con Nov. 8, 1854,
and then someone in a position of
assured the public on
Oct. 5, 1854, that no such action
was being contemplated by the of
flee concerned.
To call it false prophecy (fOr
it never materiaIized and never
will is to give it little dignity
To label it distortion of facts is
still too mild. To describe it as the
product of wagging tongues bent
on smearing the character and
god name of a respectable lady is
still too kind to so vile and COM
temptibIe persons that started the
gossip. There is only one
word to call it that fits just right:
1t is a LIE, pure and simple.
Error Somewhere
If, on October 5, 1854, Director
Boyd of the U. S. immigration and
Naturalization Service made as
that no action has been
taken looking to Miss Dominguez'
and the Police, on
Nov. 8, 1854, reports that the JUS.
immigration office reported that
Maria (Luisa Dominguez) was
destined to be deported from the
us. on December l." then we see
a great inconsistency; and some
where along the line someone
must have twisted the facts and
deliberately committed errors of
reporting. 1t cannot be accepted
that the same office would make
two completely on t r ad C tory
statements on the same subject.
In that same report from the
Seattle Police Blotter we find
more distorted information about
Miss Dominguez, totally unsub-
Stimulated by the true facts of the
case. Because of space limitation,
we shall not discuss those points
for the present.
A War Heroine
Was Maria Luisa Dominguez a
war heroine? Or was she a COLA
aborator? If she was a collabor-
ator during the war, then she
was as good a collaboration as

son and others who "collaborated'
to protect their people and coun-
try. For Laurel, Osias, Sison, OUR
inc, and many others had also
been labeled collaborators, and af-
Their the heat of war hatred and
personal animosities had subsidized
and the public had regained it's
perspective, these people have been
recognized real patriots of their
country So is Maria Luisa Domin-
guez for her country during the
fact the greatest service she had
rendered her people.
Space does not allow us to print
the voluminous testimonies to the
patriotic services of Miss Domin-
guez' for her country during the
war; to give our readers an idea
of the role Miss Dominguez took
during the war for the benefit of
her people, we are quoting from

about her and are now in the files

Mrs. Newton P. Leonard of
Providence, r. l.. said the task Of
the schools is to develop
"thoughtfully free and honestly
informed" young citizens. She
added:
Our children and young
people must be taught to prize
reason, and they must be given
opportunities to exercise that
reason. The facts. whether they

must not be concealed from our
children or distorted"
Mrs. Leonard, speaking at the

youngsters need to know the facts
of history. geography, the cul-
lures and ideologies of other
peoples. and need to understand
that there are no quick, easy
solutions to problems of human
relations.
"Above ALL" she said, 1--WE

with our own thinking. Our
