found inside the gates of the
Bae Myung Orphanage on
Nov. S, 1856. Pinned to her
old clothes was a note giving
her name and the date of her
birth. No trace has even been
found of her parents.
Since Soon Ae was found
in Pusan, a place Of refuge,
it can be assumed that her
parents were among t h e S e
unfortunate people who found
the struggle for existence too
much for them.
Soon Ae is an adorable,
bright little girl with a round
face. She shares her solitary
life in the orphanage with 30
other children.

Matter of Common Sense

Two years ago, although 1t did not
set up any travel restrictions against the
project, our State Department strongly
disapproved the decision of a number
of American students to visit Moscow
for the Sixth World Youth Festival
a Communist-run international propa-
ganda show designed primarily to pro-
mote the dominance seeking policies of
the Kremlin.
Now, however, with the seventh of
these get-togethers scheduled to con-
vene in Vienna in July, the department
is reported to be in favor of having
bright and well-informed American COL
legians take an active part in it. One
reason for this change in attitude is
that trips to AUSTRIA friendly, nom
Communist country-cannot be banned.
Another is that large numbers of our
young people will be on tour over there
(barring Berlin explosion) at the time
of the festival. And third is the fact

The Shipping Should Stop

The announced motive Of those who
have continued to snipe at the present
administration of Maryland University
is to improve conditions at the inStitu-
ton. But they are proceeding in a
strange way to accomplish their objec-
tive. Threats of an investigation (when
there is no evidence that an inquiry is
needed) and legislative proposal to
reorganize the Board of Regents (al-
though the present board seems to be
functioning we'll and in the best inter-
ests OF the university have caused
resentment and unrest at College Park
and have tended to undermine morale
The university is being hurt by such
tactics INDUCED in by few critics at
Annapolis
Delegate Machen, having apparently
failed to get support for a legislative
investigation Of the administration of
President Wilson Elkins, now has Joined
sponsors Of bill to increase the men,
bership Of the Board of Regents from
II to Is. 1t is no secret that the aim
OF these sponsors is to so pack the board
as to give alumni majority. Some of
the alumni have been critical of the
boards policy Of backing DR.. Elkins in
his emphasis on academic, rather than
athletic, achievement
The Board of Regents is justified in
protesting to Governor Tawes that the
packing plan is IAN expression of lack
OF confidence in the present board"
adoption of which would be "detrimen-
tai to the integrity and conscientious
efforts OF the present membership" The
board and DR.. Elkins have done a good
job Of maintaining and improving the
academic standards of the university.
They should be commended for their
efforts, not subjected to the sort of
vague and unjustified attacks that have
occurred in recent weeks.

For Men Only

Switzerland Is the only country in
Europe that denies its women the right
to vote or run for Office In national
elections, and its feelings in that respect
have once again been demonstrated in
decidedly emphatic manner. The
demonstration has taken the form of
an overwhelming mo" in a referendum
with men alone balloting, of course) on
a constitutional amendment that would
have placed both sexes on an equal
political footing.
Indeed, despite having scored i'm
presSive gains in few of Switzerlands
Il cantonS, the Suffragettes have been
so badly beaten on the whole that they
have reason-even though they still
speak bravely of ultimate triumph-to
feel slightly frustrated and unhappy.
But the same does not necessarily hold
true for Swiss women in general Actu-
ally, most Of them seem to have been
quite Indifferent to the referendum, and
more than a few actively campaigned
against the idea of being given the right
to vote.
Thus, some of these Swiss anti
SuffragetteS supported the males in the
prereferendum campaign with such
arguments as the following: 1T is better
to be one mans darling than the elected
choice of 10000" Moreover, large num-
bers OF them reacted most favorably to
posters proclaiming sentiments like this:
IF woman is happy, what does politics
mean to her? If she is unhappy, will
politics make any difference?" These
are challenging questions, but we would
not presume to answer them, one way
or the other, for the welding
gentler sex In America.

A Kind of Folly

Once again, the American people
have been warned that poliomyelitis,
including the fearsome paralytic kind,
may break out this year on an epidemic
scale unless they inoculate themselves
with the Salk vaccine. The warning has
been voiced by DR.. Henry w. Kumm
Of the National Foundation formerly
known as the National Foundation for
Infantile Paralysis), and 1t has been
addressed specifically to the Sc per cent
of our population that has failed thus
far. to protect itself with the three-shot
immunization against the disease.
The same sort of warning was voiced
last year by Surgeon General Leroy Bur-
ney Of the United States Public Health
Service. However, as DR.. Kumm has
made clear, 1t has gone UNDECIDED, and
this means that many millions of Amer
icans-particularly those under the age
Of 40-are flirting with danger of kind
that could cripple them for the rest of
their lives, or perhaps even kill them
in the months Immediately ahead. Yet
they would have almost 100 per cent
insurance against the disease If only
they would devote a few minutes of
their time to the business of getting
themselves inoculated.
The vaccine, of course, is read
lily available. Private physicians are
equipped to administer it at relatively
small cost, and it can also be had free
Of charge. So there is no excuse for
those who have failed to take the in
EQUATIONS. The fact that more than
half of our population has done nothing
about the matter suggests that we are
not really very sensible people. Ger
tainly, in terms of individual and group
health, such negligence seems to be not
merely foolish, but even criminal.

that some Of our students at the 1857
Moscow show gave a good account Of
themselves in rebutting Red propaganda
and otherwise serving as effective rep
resentatives Of the United States.
It is for the latter reason, above all,
that interested and competent young
Americans have found the State De-
partment friendly to the idea of their
attending the Vienna festivals in
dividuals rather than organized dele
gations-and of preparing for it in a
way that will enable them to give true
picture of our country. This is a COM
nonsense point Of view, and the depart
ment is to be commended for 1t.

who has just recently gone
to his reward, was one in
whom during World War II
the contagion of goodness
was made flesh. That which
was lovely had SO made its
home in his heart, his per-
sonality so radiated good
ness, that during his i'm
prisonment the Nazi guards
were frequently changed for
fear of the contagion Of his
spirit.
In the midst Of all that Is
loathsome on this planet. the
Sermon on the Mount blaZes
like a bouquet of diamonds.
In the light of Lent we must
confess that it is more adj
mired than acquired. more
highly assessed than pos
sessed in practice. But the
type of goodness which Is
exalted in those wondrous
words from the Mount. wher-
ever lifted up, illustrates the
gravitation of the heavenly.
Like the first fragrant arbutus
beneath the rotted leaves as
spring trips north. SO beauty
is the most fascinating and
winsome thing on earth. It
is the lifting poetry Of exist
ence. 1t is the browning acme
Of all true joy. Alas. when the
lovely comes knocking at our
hearts in vain! When that
terrible thing happens 1t is
but another proof that our
character masters our eyes
and declares our affinity
which means that in ourselves
is the loathsome or the lovely.
For as a man thinketh in his
heart. so is he.
One passage above all the
headmaster of one of the
great schools of America
loved to read as the hundreds
OF boys assembled in the long
vaulted study-hall each day
for morning prayers. Those
boys, now helping to bear the
responsibilities and burdens
of the world. have carried
ever in their memories across
the long years the sound Of
his never = forgotten voice,
Finally brethren, whatso-
ever things are true, what
soever things are honest,
whatsoever things are just,
whatsoever things are pure,
tsoever things are
lovely" the deep toned
voice would pause an instant,
and then go on, to leave the
final. lingering accent in one
climactic injunction, IF there
be any virtue and If there be
any praise. think on these
things"
Margaret Wilkinson has
written lines in which she
declared that she has never
surrendered to the loath-
some, as she says: II never
cut my neighbours throat,
never stole my neighbours
gold. I never spoiled his house
and land" But then comes
her lament as she declares
that she is haunted day ard
night by the beauty that had
never captured her life as she
confeSses: 20, uninterrupted
loneliness, o costly valor
never won." But even that
confession means that she
felt always the contagion Of
goodness.

most of the time, Capt.
Mueller and the five other
missing balloonists of the

their way through eight feet

about 3 o'clock this after
noon. Every member of the
party was safe and sound,
but tired and worn. :"
The Russia of so years ago
apparently felt it was more
blessed to give than to re-
ceive. In a story from Paris

cially advised that Russia
