to get It back in the right
place. This was probably, he
believes. in about the center
OF the present parade
ground.
Pole Sight Sought
Finding Of the original
location of the flag may not
prove too difficult for a
trained archeologist. 1t was
a large nag, approximately
80 by 40 feet. The Army had
paid a Baltimore seamstress
5000 to make it. Garrison
flags now ordinarily in use
measure only is by % feet.
This is the size of the pre-
sent Fort McHenry flag, flown
from a steel fiagpole 100 feet
high. The 1914 flag. DR..
Smith believes, didn't have
a steel pole. but its size would
have required an excep-
tionally heavy wooden pole
with its base sunk deep in
the ground or supported by
a masonry socket Of some
sort. The base of the pole
doubtless long since has dis
integrated but its location
probably will be revealed by
some slight discoloration of
the soil, quickly evident to
the eye of a trained archie
ologist.
Although location Of the
original flag pole has not
been determined yet, both
the archaeological and his
torical Investigations Of the
Park Service indicate that it
was a quite different place
in 1914. A few other find
ings:
Only one American soldier
was killed in the famous
battle. Very few soldiers
actually were in the fort dur
ing the hot rs hours. Except
for the crews of two guns.

to time. they all were in the

they were relatively safe.
However, IS were wounded.
There was a very convenient

most entirely by troops.

could not take action for
their release for fear of start
ing World War III. About
400 Of these are supposed to
be still alive rotting in the
horrible prison camps aban-
doned and forgotten by the
greatest Nation and the
enemy knows how weak we
are when we no longer stand
behind our fighting men.
But now we have sent
troops into the Middle East
to NEEDLE in the internal af-
fairs Of Lebanon. I view this
with grave concern. The ad-
ministration is willing to risk
World War III to protect the
oil interests but not to get
the release of our prisoners
of war!
When arms and help were
asked by the brave Hunga-
rians who were so brutally
invaded by the Soviets and
when the cause Of freedom
could have been achieved, we
did nothing.
Our Republic and Consti-
tuition are in grave danger
from within.

The Presidents action, in
tervening in the affairs of the
independent sovereign state
Of the Lebanon with military
force, is illegal as well as
immoral.
This is a returun to gun
boat diplomacy" and the rule
of force.
The President was uncer-
tain Of winning in the forum,
SO he took the course of the
tyrant who cannot sustain his
position by reason. Then he
presented the forum with
what he considered a fait
accompli and asked the
forum to sustain him.
I condemn such action.

Pondering the action Of
President Eisenhower in Leb-
anon. I had the following
thoughts:
Again, he hears the call TO
arms,
Again, a soldier packs his
gun.
Again. a youth hears wars
alarums
And of he goes to Lebanon.
A man hath spoke. an older
man,
For he sees naught that's else
to do.
The old man sees a looming
fire.
He sends the young, though
he doth rue.
What pity that the old mems
tongues
Have charged the young TO
wage the wars.
Too bad. that time gives not
old mems brains
The wherewithal to avert
young mems wars.
Oh, brutal war! Oh, brutal
deed
That takes one day or hour
from youth.
The world should learn for
the world to live
Live for the old, live for the
youth.
What fruit of earth, or stone
or tree
Cannot be brought unto all
men,
SO that the youth may stay
at home
And not bear arms 10 Leb-
anon?

tionalism. The term has a
familiar sound.
II I remember correctly,
Mussolini used Italian ma
tionalism as his theme in Or
der to achieve power. The
Kaiser and Hitler used Ger
man nationalism under the
guise Of superrdce and leben-
Srdum to justify internal des-
potism and external con-
quest. Tojo's preaching Of
Japanese nationalism was so
intense that he had no lack
Of kamikaze pilots. And now
Khrushchev deludes his peo-
pie with the theme of Rus
sian and Communist ma
tionalism.
Each such nationalism
brings forth its own fuehrer;
but they have two outstand-
ing things in common: The
nationalism is artificially
created by propaganda Of all
kinds, and hate is preached
as a prelude to murder and
conquest on a time schedule.
One can see the same pat
tern in the new Arab ma
tionalism. Powerful propa-
ganda machines have been
set up all over the world.
The Cairo radio station is
the most powerful in the
Middle East and spreads
hate far beyond the borders
of its own country. The
schedule of conquest is dis
cernible from the propa-
ganda sent out.
The weak and friendless
Israelis are the present tar
get of inf1ammatory hate
propaganda. Any and every
pretext imaginable is used.
The next target seems also
to have been already chosen.
Strong but not yet violent
hate is preached against the
French and Spaniards and
English as imperialistS in
Africa. May we not expect
this program to grow into
intense hate propaganda as
soon as the Israelis have
been destroyed. and enough
Arab countries have been
consolidated in the same way
that communistic countries
are now consolidated?
The last stages of con-
quest also seem to be show
ing. Milder forms of hate
propaganda, sometimes tenn
pered with denials, have APP
peared against the Sudanese.
the Turks, the Baghdad Pact,
NATO, the Christians, and
Americans. One suspects that
these seeds of hate are being
held in reserve for future
use at a propitious time.
If two world wars have
not taught us the lesson that
the ways of a fuehrer al
ways result in a world war
or capitulation, then we
have no right in Lebanon.
We ought to await the ca
tastrophe Of a third world
war. BY that time We will
have lost our true allies.
1, for one. do not relish
that prospect, and prefer to
back our President in Leba-
non and anywhere else. in
Guiding Iraq. I would go so
far as to advocate with
drawal from the United Ma
tons if that step becomes
necessary.
