titw mnnn nv the MARTYRS
A good many years ago it-was written that the blood of
the martyrs is the seed of the church. The saying may well
be remembered today as we read the account of the killing
by a Japanese balloon bomb of the picnic party of six near
BIy. The full account came from Lakeview after Under
secretary of War Patterson had disclosed some 01 me uu-
tails in Washington.
iTf;i Ci.i-ntoru Pnttorann Knnke. thouirh the understand
ing had been general that the six deaths had been caused by
a Jap bomb, there had been no actual tie in the news between
the tragedy and its cause. Writers had skirted around the
edges of the story and there had been editorials carrying
. semi-cryptic warnings about avoiding unidentified objects
found in the woods and reiernng to me uiy ueauis uut evci j
hodv in an effort to comply with censorship regulations,
avoided saying anything definite and positive about the bat
Uhq tinrl the hnmhs and the death of the six.
The authorities in Washington have done well to come
out at last with the whole story. Without doubt they have
done so so that more complete and adequate warnings can be
given pf the dangerous nature of the balloon cargoes. Ob
viously they should have issued the warnings sooner, the
loss of six lives was sufficient cause for the removal of the
censorship veil. Were the authorities so lacking in imagina
tion as not to realize, long before that BIy tragedy occurred,
that lives might be lost? They were willing to take a chance,
it seems, and having gambled with jives and lost six the story
is told.
The blood of those BIy martyrs has, indeed, been the seed
of full disclosure and public warning.
TRUMAN, TOO?
A Washington news commentator said in his column the
other day that on capital hill it is prophecied that President
Truman, among other things will
listen to Senator Byrd, who has been the chief crilic of admini
strative extravagance, and although he reappointed David Lilicn
thai to a nine-year term as head of TVA, he will be friendly to
Controller General Warren's Insistence that the TVA accounts
should bo audited and that the TVA should be given funds by
congress instead of pertnittjng the authority to do what it pleases
with its profits. ' .
That Warren matter, you may remember, was referred
to here the other day and Senator Mitchell's opposition to it
reported.' And the Wenntchce World called it "one ot the
sly moves intended to nullify the TVA." Wonder if the We
natchee paper thinks Truman a sly mover, too.

Publisher Palmer Iloyt of Port

Returning from a tour of Pa

preposterous to keep the major
part of the Pacific war Informa

In fact, he commented, one of

about our plans "and It would

not do much about It."

since Wall street reacted favor

The blunt fact is that Harry
Truman, being the bettor part
of practical about most things
political, has sought out the ad
vice of a man who had a vast
amount of experience with ter
rific food problems in Europe
following the last war. It should:
not be forgotten that Mr. Hoover!
was to postwar food in the last
war what Mr. Baruch was to fi-
nance and organization for war. j
Both were acclaimed for the jobs;
they did.

lion people in Europe facing star-:

(like Mr. Truman) to ignore tne
party's self-appointed "thought
police" and asked the best man j
ho could find to help. It was Mr.j
Hoover. e

San Francisco, Calif. One of
the most pathetic facets of this
United Nations Conference 'has
come from a lot of half-lost little
people who, not belonging to any
organization and not represent
ing anyone but themselves, have
nevertheless come here because
they want so very desperately -to
help make the peace.
How they got here, where they
stay, who pays their bills, nobody
knows. But somehow they think
that their -lone voices, crying in
the wildernesses of international
sin on the Barbary Coast,' will
start something. And they are
living proof 'to the delegations
from 48 other nations here gath
ered that in a democracy where
freedom of speech is a gospel,
every man is indeed a king even
when he's a crackpot.
In the kaleidoscope, of San
Francisco memories there will
always linger the image of a
lean-faced ascetic passing out
little slips of paper on which was
printed the breath-taking news
that A. C. S. Raymond of Or
ange, N. J., had come to San
Francisco for just one purpose
to put God into the United Na
tions Charter.
Another memorable character
was an unsuspicious-looking fe
male who walked the sidewalks
in the vicinity of the delegates'
hotels, waiting till someone came
along wearing a Conference but
ton. Then from her handbag she
would produce a four-page leaf
let advocating amendments to the
United Nations Charter to pro-1
vide for "CSSA." This, it was ex-j
plained, stood for Constitutional!
Social Security Amendments. I
The general idea was to confis-l
cate all wealth, and all Income!
from labor, then divide it up and j
pass it out as uniform social se-,
curity benefits all over the world, j
The prize handout of all, how-;
ever, was the work of one C.
Townsend Tucker of Los Ange-j
les, self-styled "founder, organ-1
izer, and author of 'The Evolu-
tion of Civilization,' a revealer of j
truth, and one endowed with un-
derstanding." ' I
A chart, big as a tabloid news- J
paper page, showed the scheme.:
On it were a hundred stars and
a lot of connecting lines. One j
cross, three ships, the Statue of;
Liberty, nine assorted sheds and i
outhouses, a curve labeled "love," :
a diagonal labeled "grace" and a
horizontal line near the top lndi-l
eating there was a 4000-year plan
to work all this out.
Of course all these people get
a terrific runaround. They write
letters to the Secretary of Stale,
who writes them back thahkyous
land refers them to the secretary
1 general of the conference, who
writes them to suggest that they
tie on to one of the duly-accredit-oh
n,-oani7jitions having an of-
ificial consultant. These consul-.
i tants can't be bothered by lone
noif cranks and nests.
They'll ail probably go do

after they'll be telling anyone
who will listen, "Now when I was

body about these situations, but
they just wouldn't listen. See
