ing in New York.
After presenting four spokesman on
the TV program-two for Nixon and
two, including Hiss, against him-Mr.
Smith concluded that Mr.. Nixon's de-
feat at the polls was evidence that the
American people were opposed to
Nixon's part in exposing communist in
fluence. The facts do not bear out the
conclusion. Though we have never been
a strong admirer of Mr.. Nixon, we do
believe him to be among our first Amer
lean statesmen. He has proved his worth
both as a Congressman, and vice-presi-
dent of the United States. To have a
convicted purger on an UnAmerican
spy charge appear on a national televi-
son program as a critic, is not only the
heighth of insolence but totally unfair
to a man who has served his country
so we'll as has Richard M. Nixon.
Howard K. Smith is one of several
liberal commentators aired regularly on
mass %television. He appears under spon-
sorship of American business enter
prises and spouts the liberal line of the
New Frontier, which taken to it's ulti-
mate would defeat private enterprise
upon which his sponsors thrive. We are
unable to understand why American
business will continue to sponsor it's own
downfall. Possibly sometime it will
wake to the dangers-we hope not too
late. The recent affront to Mr.. Nixon,
the courts and the American people
should jolt those who make the pro-
gram possible.

Inexcusable Slur

HOWARD K. Smith caused consider
able stir on his TV show last Sunday
night WREN he drafted Alger Hiss as a
program witness against Richard M.
Nixon, former vice-president and un-
successful candidate for governor of
California in last weeks election.
Mr.. Nixon took occasion upon his de-
feat to speak straight, frankly and
critically to reporters and commenta-
tors at his last press conference. Obvi-
ously tired and disappointed Mr.. Nixon
tore uninhibited into the mass media.
He received his answer on Sunday night
when ABC aired the political obituary
of Richard NJ. Nixon" by it's ace liberal
spokesman, Howard K. Smith. We re-
greet that we did not see the program so
as to have a first-hand reaction.
Alger Hiss, it will be remembered,
was an official in tire State Depart
ment, whom Richard M. Nixon as chair
man of the UnAmerican Activities Com
mittee ferreted out as having passed
certain government documents to Com
munist agents. Hiss was confronted by
Whitaker Chambers, a confessed Com
munist agent, who produced microfilm
copies of documents, hidden in the fam
GUS pumpkin on his nearby farm. Hiss
denied the accusation, but was subse-
quently convicted of perjury in connec-
ton with Chambers. The case went to
the higher Courts and the U. S. Supreme
court refused to hear an appeal, there
by sending Hiss to prison for five years.

Sovereign Equality

The United Nations usually
just pussy-foots in the face OF
Communist aggression. But now
the UN has stopped its tp-toe-
ing and is speaking resolutely Of
punitive action against one OF
the worlds strongest fortresses
against Communism-the Union
Of South Africa.
What i~nfuriates a majority OF
the members Of the United Ma
tons is South Africa's logged
adherence to a policy Of strict
racial separation.
This personal resentment Is
Understandable in the light Of
the er-darkening complexion
Of the United Nations itself. But
it runs head-on into two pro-
visions Of the UN charter itself.
Cd The Organization is based
on the principle of the sover-
eign equality Of all Of its mem
berS.
~ Nothing contained in the
present Charter shall authorize
the United Nations to intervene
in matters which are essentially
within the domestic jurisdiction
Of any state . !"
Matters affecting race re-
lations within the Union Of South
africa are certainly within the
domestic jurisdiction" of that
country. The United Nations has
no business meddling into such
affairs.
Strangely enough. these same
UN delegates show NO indigna-
ton over the antiwhite restric.
tons being enforced by many Of
the African tribes which recent
~ have acquired the status OF
nations"
Nor do we recall any protes.
tations on the part of the United
Nations against midas caste
system. which still seems to be
entrenched despite lip service
for its discontinuance.
Today, the non : Communist
white man is the favorite target
of UN pressure. Already, UN
delegates are demanding diplo.
matte and trade boycotts oil
South Africa - with the added
proposal that the Security Coun.
Gil expel South Africa from the
UN if it insists on maintaining
its racial policies.
AS an organization of ostenSi
BILE "peace-loving' nations, il
seems strange that the UN
should tolerate raw aggression
as shown by Communist nations
(and by neutralist India in its
seizure of Goa>.
1t is doubly strange that this
indulgence Of international ag.
greSsion should be followed by
the threat Of punitive UN actor
against a member state because
Of its strictly internal affairs.

it be before the UN undertakes

The Philadelphia Inquirer for Sep

light on the stamp. Says the Inquirer:

when a department of the U. S. Govern
ment sets it's commercials to music and
issues a stamp completely devoid of the
religious meaning. after clearing the

For a number of years considerable
agitation has taken place in Northern
city schools to delete the religious theme
from Christmas programs. Add to these
trends the row raised by the U. S. Su-
preme Court decision negating the use
of an authorized prayer in New York's

Christ is being deleted from Christian

EICIMANN APPEALS TO ISRAELI PRESIDENT TO SPARE HIM FROM GALLONS

JERUSALEM R = Adolf Eich- mann appealed to Israeli President Ben-Zvi today to spare him from the gallows
 Eichmann's West German de- fense counsel, Dr. Robert Servatius, submitted the condemned mans ap- peal and one of his own to Ben-Zvi. The attorney asked that the death sentence not be carried out on the Gestapo officer convicted of being major accomplice in the Nazi massacre of the Jews.
 Executive clemency is the only escape avenue open to Eichmann after the Israeli Supreme Court yesterday rejected his appeal against his conviction by special three-judge tribunal. Israers jus tice minister now has three days to submit his recommendations to the president concerning action on the clemency request.
 Ben-Zvi has received a number of appeals from abroad that Eich-
 mann be spareCs.
 If he rejects the clemency plea l it is expected that Eichmann vii be executed soon after in Ranlel prison, near Tel Aviv, where h. has been held in solitary confine ment since his trial.

In Mernnriann
 By Pierce Lehrnbeck
Associated Press Staff Writer


 On a spring day in 1865, some where in the Civil War-ravaged south, small group of women and children walked into a field and placed flowers on the fresh graves of their fathers, husbands and sons.
 Like gunfire echoing across the valleys, word spread and the act was repeated first in neighbor- ing communities and thence into the north where on May 5, 1867, Gen. John A. Logan issued a gen. eral order to the newly organized Grand Army of the Republic.
 ssThe 30th day of May is desig- mated for the purpose of strewing with flowers or otherwise deco rating the graves of comrades who died in the defense of their country in the late rebellion and whose bodies now lie in every city, vi1- lage and hamlet churchyard in the land" the order said.
 The nation pauses again today to honor those who died in her defense at Bull Run and El Caney, in the rgonne, on Pacific beaches, at the Chanjin Reservoir, in the air, on the sea, and at an chau if South Viet Nam.
 Observances will take place from the National Cemetary in Arling- ton, Va, to the decks of the partly submerged USS Arizona in Hawaii's Pearl Harbor.
 Historians believe northern oc cupation troops, moving south ward in April and May of 1865, ob SS1Veu EUfiuIlxxIns1GS u CC u q till Confederate graves and relaye the word back home.
 The graves of federal soldier buried in the south also were re nenbered. Small groups of Union ists performed the rite, and ire quently Negroes joined in taking flowers to the Union graves.

|Stowaway Found Tn Cargo Box
 On INCA Plane

ANCHORAGE tR Its the first time anything like this has every happened to me in 28 years, ! Ray Petersen, president of North ern Consolidated Airlines, said. This morning in a 206-pound box marked, Fragile Canned Goods, ' two i1GA employees found very-
 much alive 20 year old youth con- signed to Dilling
 The box was scheduled to be shipped to William Miner at Dill lingharn, but two alert employees, Lee living and Harry Franzen, noted the box moving.
 When taken out of the box the youth identified himself to security police at Anchorage International Airport as Fred Milbocker of Lake Orion, Mich. He said he and Miner, friend, had driven to Alaska over the highway in attempt to seek work.
 It was only shortage of funds which forced the pair to try the scheme, he indicated. He was en- cased in a sleeping bag and an air mattress in large cardboard box.
 "WI1en the box wiggled, the men figured either an animal, a per- son or Mexican jumping beans were being shipped as canned goods, :" Petersen said.
 Petersen pointed out, marked as canned goods, would normally be stored at the bottom of the cargo hold. The youth could easily have been suffocated when other freight
 was piled on top of the box, he stated.
 FAA and FBI officials, wher
 queried, said they were unable a
 this time to indicate what charges i if any, will be filed against tn l youth.
