uniformed Rulers

Even though there is the
tendency to maintain objec-
tive and honest Information
from all Presidents on the
part of the persons closer to
them, this phenomenon &C.
quires larger proportions in
cases of the socalled power
full rulers, or the kind who
impose their will over all
democratic standards.
The latter almost always
live in a completely different
world, ignorant of what really
goes on in the country or
ignorant, at least, of what
the people really think about
them and their regimes. In
these cases there are two
main contributing act or $,
which are servility and fear.
The political and economic
advantages meant by as one
says in these instances
being in the good eye of the
omnipotent ruler, make this
servility to distort everything,
because every person close
to the dictator, every person
seeking his smiles, his benevo-
lence, his friendship and his
support, will not economic
in flattery, no matter how
absurd or how irritating it
may be, if that wins the good
will and sympathy Of the all
powerful one of the nation.
On the other hand, and due
in great part to that servility,
no one would dare inform this
kind of ruler about the dis
content among the people,
about the d%isrepute of his
collaborators, about the popu-
lar animadversion ! S t
his conduct as Chief of the
State. 1t is frightening to
inform such things to a man
who in a few minutes can
end it all for anyone in many
ways, and particularly when
that ruler, due to the servility
of some or many around HIM,
feels that he is the chosen
one, a Messiah. There is
terror in telling him the
truth, even if in the best Of
intentions.

ton, they commit more errors
than they would commit il
they had the opportunity to
learn about the reactions Of
public opinion. The greatness
Of their power determines.
paradoxically, the limitation
Of their capacity to learn
what the people think about

Seek New Trial
In Perjury Case

BALTIMORE. June 10 (P.-
Two former top-ranking of
flcers of the police rackets divi-
sion have asked for a new trial
on charges that they induced
two witnesses to commit per-
jury in q gambling case.
Motions for the new trial
were filed yesterday on behalf
Of Inspector Clarence y. For
roster. former commanding Of
flcer of the division, and Capt.
Lyman Goldstein, second in
command.
They were convicted by a
Criminal Court jury Saturday
Of inducing two police SER
geants to lie during the trial of
a man accused of lottery Or.er-
atoms.
Their lawyers asked the 12-
member Supreme bench of
Baltimore City to reverse the
verdict on grounds that Judge
Reuben Oppenheimer made
several wrong rulings during
the trial and that there was
no evidence for a valid con-
viction.
Capt. Goldstein's lawyers also
contended that a mistrial
should have been declared by
Judge Oppenheimer because of
a statement made during the
case by States Attorney j.
Harold Grady.
