3 Police Quizzed
In Chicago Probe

CHICAGO, Sept. 13 APP
A city detective and two bur-
glars were under arrest and at
least three other policemen
were being questioned today in
a new scandal involving alleged
cooperation between Chicago
police and burglars.
! The new investigation closely
parallels an earlier scandal in
which eight former policemen
we're convicted less than a
month ago of conspiring with
a burglar in looting stores ever
a two-year period. The earlier
scandal resulted in reorganiza .
tion of the Chicago Police De-
partment.
In the current investigation.
Detective Ronald Hansen. 81,
assigned to the police burglary
detail, was charged with re-
ceiving stolen property. States
Attorney Daniel Ward said a
television set and five hair dry
ers, identified as stolen prop
erty. were found in Detective
Hansen's home yesterday.
Three other detectives, one
a sergeant, who worked with
Mr.. Hansen are being ques-
toned, Mr.. Ward said.
/ The investigation was set off
by the seizure of two men yes
terday as they attempted to
break into a north side tavern
They were identified by Mr.
Ward as Ronald Narhut, "a
and Louis Ettelt, IS.
Mr.. Ward said Narbut talked
freely, duplicating policemen as
partners in burglar,es. =

NEW WELFARE BUILDING

Holmes County has a chance to &C
quire a new county Welfare Building.
Last week the Board of Supervisors ap-
Pointed a committee to seek a property
site which would be suitable for the pro-
posed building. The new edifice would
be, in the long run, financed by the fed
eral matching plan. Under the plan in ten
to II years the building will have paid
for itself.
Presently there are 10 individuals en-
ployed by the Holmes County Welfare
Department. Many of these require
special quarters and offices which are
necessary to deal with the many prob
lens which these dedicated individuals
face daily. Presently, the staff is work
ing in cramped and uncomfortable con-
ditions which make their work doubly
Holmes County herald., 1961-02-16
difficult.

difficult.
Some people are opposed to the princi-
pie of the welfare movement. We do
not feel that such opposition is per-
tinent in this case. Whether anyone likes
it or not, the welfare program is here to
stay. 1t would be of little use to cite
statistics concerning the impact of wei
fare department expenditures in Holmes
County. 1t will suffice to point out that
the workings of the department play an
indeed significant role in our economic
life.
If the citizens of Holmes County pass
up this opportunity to promote a new
building they have made a serious mis-
take. Civic leaders are urged to offer
their assistance in any way possible so
that this may not be the case.

COMMENT
THE PAST IS FINE
WHAT ABOUT FUTURE

There can be little doubt that Holmes
County has had as notable 4 past as any
similar area in the country. The county
has been the birthplace of many impor-
tant movements such as the All organi-
cation and the Eastern Star. All in all, ira
dition has played an important part In
the activities and customs of the COM
munity.
The past is not what is really impor-
rant, however. 1t is the future with which
all of us are vitality concerned. Despite
what many of the local prophets of doom
are saying, the Herald feels that Holmes

Rites were held Monday for Leon
Armstrong, longtime resident of Lexing-
ton. Because his life was exemplary of
the highest in service to his community,
to his family, and to all of those persons
who knew him, his cheerfulness and
courage will be missed.
He was uniformly liked by old and
young. There were many reasons for
this, for he was a public spirited indivi-
dual who was always interested in
every movement which would better his
community. A dedicated Christian, he
was recently elected treasurer of the

ARMSTRONG

Lexington Presbyterian Church where
he was a Deacon. His life reflected all
of the Christian principles.
He was a member of Battery d of the
18th Field Artillery, when the unit was
first formed in 1884 and remained active
in that organization until after he was
married. Mr.. Armstrong was an expert i'll
the retail grocery field. Lexington and
Holmes County need more men like
Leon Armstrong, for his life was a mix
ture of courage, integrity and cheerful
ness. Such is a rare combination, indeed.

County can have a great future. 1t is
one which must be claimed, though.
Beginning next week and running
through April, the Herald will carry a
series of editorials concerning the years
ahead for Holmes County. To be in the
form of an editorial challenge, the arti-
cles will deal with the possibilities of
growth and development which lies
ahead for the county. At the same time,
we will discuss the type of leadership
which will De imperative if Holmes
County is to achieve the potential in flu
ture development.

all know about the Cat, it has
chung more closely than any
other domestic animal to the
size, shape and habits of its
wild ancestors. Cats are able
to look any man straight in
the eye with out flinching, and
some people say they are
capable of reading the human
mind. This is a debatable
point. Who knows?
Cats are smart, and terribly
clean animals, they may re
fuse to eat the food if the dish
is not clean. | am SO sorry
for the strays and the ally
cats who have no home. They
lead a hard life, living in the
woods and fields, catching
mice and small rabbits or
fish in the brook. Give your
cat a bowl of nice warm milk
for supper and see the love
shining in his eyes.
The most surprising cat
tail is that when gold was dis
covered in California in 1849,
rats and mice ate up almost
everything in the little Shacks
that the men lived in. A ship
load of cats, a hundred they
say, landed in San Francisco
and sold for ten to twenty dol
lars a piece. These cats saved
the day, and were we'll worth
the price paid for them. And
l am sure they were treated
we'll and cared for in a grand
manner.
Even the long haired aristo-
Gratis of the cat world has kept
most of the qualities that their
wild ancestors had before
man brought them into his
home.
When | see a poor old cat
walking along a country road,
jumping in the tall grass, af-
ter some small animal, I
wonder if this wayfarer has
any idea Of her regal ances-
tory?
"Cats and people are funny
animals,
Cats have four paws but only
one nav,
People have f%ore-fathers and
only one mother,
When a cat smells a rat, he
gets excited, so do people.
Cats carry tails, and so dc
some people.
All cats have fur coats, some
people have fur coats.
And the ones who don't have
fur coats,
Say catty things about the
ones who have fur coats"

'Cat Care''

"Cat Care" -
Reading the book on "Cat
Care" reminds me once more
of the cats we have known
and their Importance in my
life. | was very small when I
brought home a brown paper
sack of kittens which someone
had tossed out on the road
side. This was, perhaps my
first Introduction to cruelty
and it was indeed a bitter ex-
perience.
The poor little kittens were
half froZ ;. AMI too small and
weak to live, but when mama
saw the tears II my eyes, sire
allowed me to try to save
their lives. How we worked
keeping old Tags warm in an
old shoe box, constantly re-
heating them and putting
over the little kittens. We fed
them warm milk, with d
medicine dropper, drop by
drop.
In those days no one knew
anything about formulas for
unweaned animals, and in our
little town there was no such
thing as a veterinarian.
| doubt if anyone could have
saved them, as they had been
chilled as we'll as tossed away.
But our constant nursing and
sheer will, kept them alive
for several days. My father
was definitely not a "cat"
man. A paper bag of ally cats
was nothing to get excited
over, and to pick them up
was his idea of a complete
waste of time.
However, my father was
deeply concerned when he
saw how grieved | was over
the kittens. One day coming
in from a long call he had
made to a sick family, he
brought me a healthy, grey
kitten, the right age to leave
home and mother. We named
him Little Doctor" as he
loved to climb upon my ia
theirs, "Saddle-bags" n d
sleep. At that time all doctors
carried leather saddle bags
filled with pills, bottles, and
bandages.
| loved my cat very dearly,
but the ache in my childish
heart persisted for a long time
over the little abandoned
babies. Mama never could ex-
plain to me just how people
could be so cruel and down
right mean.
There are things we should

Today, more than ever be-
fore we must be concerned
with this threat of a Com
munist dominated world.
The real tragedy of our
present situation is that
many Americans are un-
knowingly su pporting the
the Communist cause. We
feel that guilt by associa-
ton is deplorable, but many
liberals in our own country
are aiding the Communist
cause by the views which
they hold and which they
present to the public. We
see it every day in our
educational Institutions, ir
our churches, and in news
papers.
We are as much opposed
to thought control as any
living person: The indivi-
dual, if he is to maintain
his dignity, must be allow
ed to express his own views,
regardless of whether or not
they agree with the major
ity. This is a simple part
of the American way. The
trouble lies in the fact that
many of today's liberals
lack a firm understanding
of the basic theory and po-
licies of world Communism.
AS Communism on the
Map" points out, t e
world is divided into
two camps. There can be
no compromise. We must
stand on one side or the
other.
There has long been a
need for public showing of
such a film. The state Amer
lean Legion organization
and those DICTIONARIES who
are SO generously giving of
their time are to be con-
graduated for the public
spirited effort.

Should Make Special Effort
To View Communism On Map
BY Jack Shearer

Elsewhere IN lIllS WCCh ,
Herald is an account of
area showings of the film
Communism on the Map"
which is being sponsored
locally by the Tchula Amer
lean Legion post. The state
American Legion organiZa-
ton and the Jackson Daily
News are promoting the
film on a statewide level.
We saw Communism On
The Map" at Tchula last
week and feel that every
citizen in our county should
be exposed to its message.
AS was explained to the
audience at Tchula, the
story which is colorfully
told by the film is not a
new one. Yet, at the same
time, it outlines what each
of us as liberty loving
American citizens can do
to help win the battle
against the Communist men
ace. Ignorance, apathy, and
absence of responsibility of
citizenship are cited as our
biggest weaknesses. There
can be little doubt that
this is an accurate account.
Communism on the
Map" is a vivid account of
the gains which that ideo-
logy has made since World
War II. Map after map is
flashed on the screen show
ing Red victories within
recent years. In addition to
Asian conquest, Cuba, Vene-
Zuela, and British Guiana
are cited as areas where
Communists have definite
footholds.
The well-known cases of
espionage and SubverSion
in our own government are
also related. More surpris-
ing, however, are factual
examples of Communist con-
troll of press and public re-
lations media in America.
The National Education
Program of Searcy, Ark,
headed by DR.. George Ben
son created the film. The
promotion and enhance
ment of basic Americanism
has long been an objective
of that organization for it
has been reaching an esti-
mated Is million persons a
week with some phase of
its varied activities. The
program, basically,
emphasized positive educa-
ton, concentrating on the
values Of the American
Way Of life, but with minor
attention to socialism and
communism.
