900 children between the ages
of five and eight, forcibly re-
moved them from their homes
to various Marxist domains
for indoctrination. Gaze at
that candid camera shot
it's communism in action.
And yet there are naive
people under the Stars and
Stripes who, looking at a
scene like that or at the
butchery in Hungary, or at
the horrible rape of Tibet,
who make light of alarms as
to Soviet determination and
plots to infiltrate the United
States. Some among us know
ing the horrors and atroci-
ties half a world away poke
fun at their neighbors who,
they say, see Communists
under every bed" Such need
to listen to the biting words
of President Kennedy: 1--WE
do not intend to be lectured
to by those whose character
was stamped for all time on
the bloody streets of Buda-
pest" That character is OPP
Grating on every street in
America, and with the same
intentions. The Hoover Study
makes clear that the bloody
streets of Budapest and dog
ems of other blood baths per-
petrated by these interna-
tional highwaymen are but
omens of their intention to
destroy the one obstacle to
their world victory - the
United States of America. A
great service Of this study Of
communism is to show that
the basic principle Of this
refuge of lies rests upon the
sinking sand of utterly false
assumptions. There is moth
ing scientific about it. The
United States stands today
as the living proof Of the
outmoded and illogical con-
cepts of Marxism.
This candid camera reveals
enough to alert every lover
of freedom to the present
danger, whose hot breath is
now only 80 miles from our
shores, closer to us than
Washington is to Philadel-
phia. But this study of COM
munism makes the forces Of
freedom all the more conf
dent that If America stands
her ground firmly without
compromise the Soviet ham
mer can never, pulverize
Plymouth Rock, nor its sickle
cut down the fair and frag-
rant flowers in the garden Of
freedom. These candid pic
lures in the study of COM
munism are marching orders
as to how to win the Cold
War and some day, when the
light is turned on. win the
fine Russian people. In the
titanic struggle now raging,
this book is terrible as an
army with banners.

Britoin's Nozis

The British seem to take their
domestic Nazis great deal more seri-
ously than they do their Communists.
Certainly they take them more seriously
than we in the United States take our
Nazi swaggerers.
Colin Jordan, Britain's Nazi leader,
found guilty by jury in London, &C
cording to the New York Herald Trib-
une, of organizing a Nazi unit in such
a manner that reasonable apprehen-
sion" was aroused that the group might
be used as a strong arm force in pro-
noting political cause. Jordan was
sentenced to nine months in Jail, and
his henchmen were given lesser SEN
fences.
There are two things about this. The
Na5i movement in Britain is believed
to have fewer than 100 adherents. Not
much Of a threat to the United Kingdom.
Secondly, one of Jordan's followers said
that BritainS Nazis now will take or
ders" from our own George Lincoln
Rockwell, whose political significance in
the United States certainly does not rise
above very minor nuisance value,
1t may still be true, we suppose,
that great oaks from little acorns grow.
But in this instance we do not propose
to lie awake nights worrying about
George Lincoln Rockwell He will not
grow into great oak or even a tiny oak
IN our country, and If Britain's Nazis
are awaiting orders from him, we think
that they are washed up, too.

In a sensitive and prova-
tive column, Eric Sevareid
asks why he finds that 1.-The
life force" of New York City
has vanished, its glamour
gone, the color and excite
ment, cultural and otherwise,
of a couple of decades ago
somehow lost.
Mr.. Sevareid says he does
not know the reason, and
neither do I, for certain,
although I have pondered
upon it a great deal in re-
cent years.
I repeat, I don't know for
sure what has happened, but
I would like to venture an
opinion. My view is that while
New York has indeed
changed, all of the attributes
which gave the city such spe-
cial life and meaning to us
to me-30 years ago have
not in fact disappeared.
What has disappeared, I
am afraid, is my youth and
the dreams of youth.
New York City still weaves
its special magic for the
young-and I believe always
will. What Mr.. Sevareid is
mourning, as l have mourned,
is the fact that as I ap-
proach so years Of age I do
not respond to the same
things that put stars in my
eyes when I first walked
Washington News, or saw
Tyrone Power the elder play
Brutus in Julius Caesar at
John Cort's Theater, or rode
a Staten Island ferry boat
at dawn. or played catch at
Jasper Oval, or bought my
first copy Of The Dial, or
covered my first fire with a
copy Of Mencken and
Nathan's Mercury stuck in
my topcoat pocket.
Mr.. Sevareid says, truly,
that Broadway is but a tar
nished copy of what it was.
But I recall my fathers sad
ness, in his day, that tn e
Broadway of the 1920s was
but a pale and unhappy copy
of the Broadway of Diamond
Jim Brady. Weber and Fields,
and Shanley's, Churchill's,
Delmonico's, and many
another lush lobster palace.
And his father, in turn,
was dismayed at the passing
of Edwin Booths Broadway.
Yes, New York has
changed, for better or for
worse. But most of all, Mr..
Sevareid, we have changed.
And I, for one, am quite hap
py to sit at home and watch
television - also for better
or worse.

the fight. Among the chap
parel and sharp rocks of the
mountains, and along the
hills and valleys, many lost
portions of the clothing they
had on and emerged from
the terrible conflict with lit
tie else than trusty muskets
and cartridge boxes. 1t was
no uncommon thing to pass
men on the march whose
miserable outfit was not suf-
ficient to hide their naked
ness. Some were without
shirts, others had on the
dirty remnants of a pair of
pants, without shoes, and
many lacked caps or hats.
Some were barefooted and
others had on ragged socks
but no shoes. Let it be re-
membered that many of
these troops. thus ragged and
destitute, and limping along
on feet covered with stone
bruises, had been reared up
in luxury, and accustomed
to all the comforts which
wealth and industry can sup
ply. But bad as is the con-
dition of the men in camp,
those who were wounded
and sent to the hospitals
were still more unfortunate.
Surgeons and medicines were
sent up to Winchester, to
which point most of the
sick and wounded were taken,
but up to the 18th instant
October Is, 1882 we are
assured that the medical de-
partment had not furnished
a solitary cot, bedsack, sheet,
pillow or change of clothing
for these unfortunates. With
the single exception of the
York Hospital, which was
formerly occupied by the
Yankees, and where they had
left a complete outfit Of
hospital furniture, the sick
and wounded were huddled
together upon the dirty floor,
in many instances without II
single whiSp of straw be-
tween their aching bones and
the hard planks. At Hollings-
worth Grove, large numbers
we're placed under tent flies,
with nothing to protect them
against the cold night air
and driving mountain mists.
A few cases are reported
where the patients were as
naked as babies Just born,
their scanty clothing having
been torn off to dress their
wounds. :"

SLOW Drivers

! should like to express my
appreciation for your editori-
al, SLOW Drivers" I hope
that your interest in this
subject will help to bring
about a long needed improve
ment in the policing and
control of traffic on our
highways, particularly Of the
two-lane type.
I have been driving for
many years and I believe
that the slow driver - I call
them Sunday drivers" -
are probably the most fire.
quently encountered menace
on the highway, and it is
probably impossible to calcu-
late or even guess at the
cumulative dangers that
these slow drivers represent.
They represent a peculiar
type Of menace. The speed
er. or the person who ig-
nores stop signs or traffic
lights or solid lines on the
road, probably knows tn a t
the law is not on his side,
and at least feels some re-
straint. The slow driver has
no such restraint and prob
ably considers himself to be
a paragon of virtue" This
is the condition that needs
to be remedied.
I do not suggest that slow
drivers or Sunday drivers"
be subject to fine or sent
to prison (although some
times I wish they were), but
I do think it would be possible
to issue traffic regulations
which would make it possible
for the peace officers patrol
ling the roads to investigate
the causes of such slow driv-
ing. and to require slow driv-
ers to be put off the high
way and let the backed-up
traffic get past them. While
such a solution would be no
more perfect than any other
remedial measures we have
available to us, it should at
least tend to rob the slow
driver Of his feeling Of vir-
tue. and require some justi-
fication for his inconvenience
ing hundreds Of other people.
One could predict that after
an educational period a
majority Of these slow driv-
ers would learn that they
must help traffic flow along
at q reasonable speed for
their own safety. as we'll as
the safety of others. When
and If this should happen,
the number Of Sunday driv-
ers" should be reduced to the
nitwit fringe, and this at
least would be a big help.
I hope that The Star will
continue its support and in
terest in an adequate solu-
ton to this problem.

not been thought of so years
ago, but the Government did
allow a diluted version Of
this practice by permitting
lunch Juggling Federal en-
ployes to brew a cup of tea
for their half-hour midday
meal at their desks. And even
that resulted in something
of a teapot tempest. The
Star of October %, 1912, re-
ported women clerks at the
Treasury were angry because
officials had banned tea
brewing, which was done in
an improvised "tearoom,"
because it was creating un-
sanitary conditions. The
ladies, it seems, were litter
ing the place with bread and
cake crumbs, causing q pop
ulation explosion among in
sect wildlife that fattens on
such tidbits. Perhaps this
was an inspiration for Gov
eminent cafeterias, for these
questions were raised: How
are you going to have a tea
room with 100 women max
ing tea in it at the same
time? Where are the teapots
to be kept? Who will be in
charge of the lump sugar?
Who is going to run away
the ants that go after the
sweatened drops of tea that
are spilled?" The Star was
not unsympathetic. 1t said:
Amt it terrible, Mabel?"
Jake Stahls Boston Red
Sox won the World Series
from John McGraw's New
York Giants so years ago,
taking the last game Of the
7 game series by a score of
3 to 2. The Star of October
Is, 1912. reported the Sox
scored twice to come from
behind in the 10th inning,
which was marred when
Giant Centerfielder Snod-
grass dropped a fly ball. This
went down in baseball his
tory as "Snodgrass' muff."
Smokey Joe" Wood, who was
pounded out of the box by
the Giants in the next to
last game of the series, won
the final game, while Christie
Mathewson took the loss.

More than $4,000 of those

Golden Silence

Virginias Senator Byrd believes
that "silence is golden" in some situa-
lions, and he has demonstrated that
silence can be an effective political
device. In the last three presidential
elections his silence was at least influ-
entail in putting Virginia in the Repub-
ucan column And it also has served,
for the time being at least, to deny a
judgeship to Lindsay Almond, former
political ally who has been baniShed
into the outer darkness.
Mr.. Almond was elected Governor Of
Virginia as a segregationiSt and a
Staunch member of the Byrd organiZa-
ton. But when he was confronted with
the choice of closing public schools or
abandoning massive resistance, he came
down on the side of education, and this
may very we'll have saved the Virginia
public school system. He also made
speech in Roanoke last January which
offended Senator Byrd. The latter, on
January 10, said he was sending for the
transcript Of the speech and that after
reading it, he would make a further
statement setting the record straight.
This further statement has not been
forthcoming
The President last April nominated
Mr.. Almond for a place on the Court
of Customs and Patent Appeals, which
sits in Washington. Since then, nothing
has happened. Senator EaStland Of
Mississippi, who heads the Judiciary
Committee, did not appoint Subcom-
mittee to consider the nomination. No
effort was made to ascertain the atti-
tude of the Virginia Senators. Just
silence.
Senator Eastland, as well as some
other Southern Senators, doubtless take
dim view of Mr.. Almond. Even without
this, however, Senate customs and SEN
atorial courtesy" being what they are,
there would be no need for Senator
Byrd to request that the Almond nom
nation be bottled up. A little bit Of
the golden silence" treatment would,
and probably did, do the trick.
We also think that this is shame.
President Kennedy could give Mr.. Al
mond recess appointment now, but
he could not serve with pay beyond the
life Of the next Congress unless con-
firmed by the Senate. And he will not
be confirmed as long as the Virginia
Senators, and Senator Byrd in particu-
lar, keep mum.
The system Of rewards and punish
ments is not new in politics. In some
instances it is necessary to keep the
party faithful in line. But we do not
think this applies to Mr.. Almond. He
fought the good fight for the Byrd
organization right up to the last hour.
Then, faced with decision of over
riding Importance, he took his stand
on the side of public education-the
right stand, in our opinion.
For this he is being punished. AS
q man Of modest means, he is being
made to suffer. And it is all so easy;
mere silence does the trick Senator
Byrd, who could change all this by say
ing the word, may feel he is justified
in Withholding it. But to many of Sen
ator Byrds friends, the occasion is one
for regret and disappointment. They
would have expected greater show of
magnanimity, which he can so easily
afford, from Virginia's senior Senator.

SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
A Candid Camera
BY DIR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS
Chaplain Of the United States Senate

Today, beneath the spires
Of a Nations faith, we lift
a new book. Its chapters war
against the foulest blaSphe-
my of the ages challenging
mans spiritual birthright. 1t
is a candid camera exposure.
The man behind the camera
Is J. Edgar Hoover. Without
question, history will hail him
as a truly great American
patriot who made vital con-
tributions to the survival on
this planet of the precious
things which as free men we
hold nearest our hearts. The
title of his book is "A Study
Of Communism"
The devastating impact of
these stark chapters upon
any genuinely inquiring mind
is as a searchlight of reveal
ing truth. Here, captured in
vivid verbal photographs, are
close-ups of a debauching
system which has now with
in its regimented grasp one
third of those inhabiting this
globe.
AS a spire suggests a pull
pit, let it be said that no pull
pit can make any legitimate
claim to contemporary rele-
vancy which ignores today's
fierce onslaught by Goddess
forces upon the salient truth
which every true church pro-
claims.
In facing the complex and
intricate affairs of this plan
ct there is absolutely Moth
ing more necessary than that
those now free shall under
stand the nature Of commu-
nism. Without that knowl-
edge we risk losing all that
we value most. And so this
Spire of the Spirit broad
casts this exhortation: Make
a path to a library or a
bookstore and secure for
yourself this arsenal of the
free world. If necessary, in
the name of the future, turn
from some soft luxury and
with the money saved secure
this militant volume to put
into the hands of unaroused
Americans. With deadly fac
tual accuracy the book de-
picts the illogical, twisted
premises Of this warped sys-
tenn dubbed Marxism. 1t does
not attempt to cover with
any euphemious camouflage
its inhuman methods and its
fanatical goal to dominate
the earth, with our own dear
United States as its chief
target.
When any real patrio t
completes this study, a hide
GUS form stands stripped of
all falsefaces and purloined
garments of light. The re-
voting revelation to decent
eyes brings but disgust and
contempt. AS one exhibit of
its diabolical methods, take a
look at just one picture by
the lens of the Hoover candid
camera. From a threatened
fate United States reinforce
ments saved Greece, marked
for slavery. In attempting its
detectives in Greece, the
Communists executed $500
non combatants, destroyed
more than 1000 homes. loot
ed nearly 1000 villages-and
terrorist tactics forced some
100000 persons to abandon
their homes and flee to safer
areas. Finally, the Commu-
mist destroyers abducted 49,
