Capital Journal Mr. Black denied nothing essential to the allegations that have been hurled at him, answered nothing, and confessed everything ... It Is algnl flcnt that Black did not refuse the life membership card, return It or denounce the organization conferring It for the un-Amerloan principle he now tardily professes to scorn. Portland (Ore.) Journal Justice Black' speech was a confession. It was honest. Justice Black appealed, as a man. to many who readily for give a fault when confession la clear and penitence sincere. But the main Issue Is not thereby changed. Justlco Black convicted himself. He should resign. C. A. Sprague, editor Oregon States man Associate Justice Hugo L. Black's address, In explanation of his alleged Ku Klux Klan affiliations. was frank and clear cut but should have been made at the time the sen ate waa considering his confirmation member of the united States supreme court. A statement by Black at that time probably would have avoided the recent attacks and aaved him embarrassment. The New York World-Telegram "Hugo Blsck'a address to the nation waa the work of a brilliant prosecu tor auddenly turned to the defense. It wa an eloquent plea for tolerance. It wa clever. But like too many of the recent happening In the region of the supreme court, 'too damned clever.' . . . We can't overlook the throne which waa all but burled In the rose bed of hi rhetoric 'I did Join the Kln.' " Cleveland New Hugo Lafayette Black, Mr. Roosevelt's first gift to American Justice, last night at last admitted what he could no longer deny. He confessed what had al ready been proved up to the hilt. Hla presence on the supreme court bench of the United States must be never-ending Insult to American Ideals of government and American ideals of manhood. He la a dl' grace to the court and a disgrace to the president whose reckless action put blm there. Philadelphia Evening uuiioiin 'The new member of the court asks the country to believe that Black the Justice Is fundamentally opposed to the principles which Black the candidate waa willing to profess to advance politically. . . . Nothing In the statement rellevea the Justice of the charge of equivocation In the assurances given his colleagues In the senate In his behalf when the rumors of his Klan connection were first bruited. Hla own admissions mske It clear beyond dispute that the nomination should never have been made: that It wa confirmed with Inexcusable refusal to sift the charges made and that his future useful ness has been gravely compromised." The Kansas City Star The plain fact 1 that the Justice waa trying to explain away something thnt in the nature of the case could not oe ex plained away. Accumulating evidence since hla appointment confirms Mie impres sion mads at the time that hla ele vatlor to the supreme court .was a traglo offense against the American people. Washington Evenlug Star Justice Black's statement regarding his Klan connection comes late. He would be In better case today had he made It at the time hla nomination to the court wa before hi fellow senators for confirmation. . . . the country will Judge for Itself. Dayton Dally Newa "In view of the widespread taint of the Klan In those dark post war days some forgiveness can be claimed and allowed. We wish that Justice Black could have . . . made a clean confession of error. plead the disturbed mentality of the times, then ahow forth, aa uiacx could and did do. fruits meet for the repentance professed. Blsck did not go this whole way . . . and by that length he failed of that fun ciaim to public aympsthy." Minneapolis Journal (Independ ent) "From his uneasy spot at the bar of public opinion. Mr. Black re- Justice Black and (Borothy Thompson In N. Y. Herald Tribune) More significant and more disturb ing than the fact that Mr. Justice Black may have been, and may still be. a member of the Ku Klux Klan. la the belated reaction of the so- called, "liberals" to the story. Shock ed, during the first days, they have now gotten their bearing, and evi dently all from the same place. For tha chorus haa a monotonous regu larity. And so zealous have become the aupporters of the program tor re organizing the supreme bench that anything Is condoned In the adher ents ot that program. So we have the amaaing spectaclo of "The Nation" and "The New He- public," with a flock of editorial writers and columnists of the New Deal school actually putting forth an apology for the hooded night riders. We are told that the exposure of Mr. Black was a "conspiracy" on the part of Mr. Hearst and big business; that Joining the Klan believe it or not, this is "The New Republic" talking "wa much like what joining Rotary or Klwant li In some small mtd western town " We are asked to believe that Mr. Black took the oath like "thousands." "without realizing the full signifi cance of the hooded order." The Inference of the latter being that he was not a rascal, but only a sap. By another "liberal" commentator Mt. Black'a membership Is called a "red herring" drawn across the path of liberal progress by the wicked. We are asked to recall only that Mr. Justice Black has waged heroic war on the utilities. Whatever else be may have done is really unimpor. tant. Now and 1 ahould have thought ibvlously the question l not the 'haraeter or the motives' o( the men 1 who turned up the Klan evidence. plled to the Ku Klux Klan charge as follow: "'Oullty. but I wa Jut foolin.'" The Boston Traveler (Independ ent) "Hugo Black'a pitiable defense of his political chicanery was both an lnault and threat not alone to the three groups the Ku Klux Klan persecuted, but to every American, whatever hla race or religion. The discussion Is not ended. The Amer lean public does not accept the scold' Ing. It may have to accept Hugo Black on the highest bench. To pry a man loose from a $20,000 a year Job I not always easy. "What do you, Mr. President, think of It?" The Chicago Dally News (Ind.) "Justice Black's answer to the charge Is a confession of Its truth, ... No secret has been made of the embar rassment of the president in the whole matter . . . millions of Ameri cans of every racial stock and every religious belief will hot forget this sole tangible accomplishment of President Roosevelt's attempted "li beralization' of the aupreme court." Newark (N.J.) Evening New "The New said at the time of hi nomina tion that Its objection to Mr. Black waa that he Is Mr. Black. Now he Is more Mr. Black than ever, so let him put on his robe, and let the court, with lta eighth and It one, resume It busi ness." St. Louis Poat-DUpatch "Black stands, by his own testimony, con victed of unfitness to be a member of the supreme court. . . . the taint of the Klan oath that he took though he forswears It now Is still on him. It stigmatize him. the sen ate that confirmed him and the presi dent who appointed him." The Baltimore Evening 8un (Inde pendent Democrat) ''Since Hugo L. Black was a southern politician of the cheaper sort, it was almost In evitable that he ahould have Joined the Ku Klux Klan In Its halcyon days. ... a little later It went Into ecllpae. The fact that it waa a racket , . . became more and more apparent until even the moat backward polltl clans could see the writing on the wall and publicly denied any con nectlon with it. Hugo Black differs from the othera only In the unimpor tant detail that he didn't see fit either to admit membership or to de nounce the objectives of public ad mission of laat night, the fact re mains that he did try to slip into the supreme court wluthout letting the unpleasant acta In his record be known. ... The Richmond (Va.) News Leader "A full, frank statement, ringing true In every word and ending with an offer to resign In order that the president and the party might be relieved of odium, would have given Mr. Justice Black a reputation we fear he never can get now. The spectre of a white hood amid the black gown of the court will not down." Milwaukee Journal "Why were the people of the United States asked to listen to thla humiliating una oy a politician who Joined tho Klan when It suited him. resigned when It suited him? He loft President Roosevelt In Ignorance of his Klan affiliation. He sat In the senate and heard hi breth crn question his affiliation when a single word would have enlightened them. Mr. Roosevelt thought he ought to have six appointments to the court. And Hugo L. Black Is what he did with the one appoint ment he has had." The Nashville Banner (Ind. D.) "Associated Justice Hugo L. Black may posses courage, but he assuredly lack candor. ... It was an effort a clearly marked by Inconclstancles as bv ita secretlveness, where silence was the conceived better strategy and by suppression of the record where the whole truth would have been destructive In Iks embarrassments. . . . the silences of the speech were eloquent of fear to make a full dis closure." Little Rock Arkansas Democrat (D.l "It w a atralght-forward con fession without apologlea and should close the Incident. . . . compllotlon of comment . . . shows plainly that the row over the Justice mrmBer- ship In the Klan Is purely political." the Liberal Spirit H is whether the evidence la true, and If so. what Is It slgnlflcsnce. In criminal trials, courts do not In quire Into the private motlvea of detectives, or into their character, but only Into the question of the evidence that they present. Every on knows that one of the principal props of law enforcement la the stool pigeon, who Is certainly a low older of humsnlty. It Is not the Pittsburgh Post Gazette that is on trial before public opinion, but Mr. Justice Black. What so-called liberals are now doing, Is not only to stoop to making an apologia for the Klan, but ac tually to justify any kind of per sonal behavior, If It la politically expedient for furthering what they believe to be a good cause. And now we are getting Into dark waters. For the minute that you grant that the end Justifies the means you have abandoned the ground upon which you can attack most of the evil in the world, from espionage in In dustrial plants and the third de gree In American police stations, to concentration camps In Germany and wholesale executions In Russia You have abandoned any criteria for personal or public honor. And you might aa well Join the chorus of those who say that Mussolini has made the trains run on time, and Hitler haa given Jobs to everybody tn Germany. These "liberals" are putting them selves Into a false and extremely dunge rout position. It is granted n all aldea, and waa clearly indk-ated by the president, that It he had known of Mr. Black'a alleged Klan affiliations he would not have ap pointed him.

NEEDLES A good many letters from people who seek endorsement of their schemes or an opinion on a diag nosis or some such special favor be gin with those ominous words "Needless to say." Ol' Doe Brady getting some thing off his chest. It does not refer to any one In particular, Just to human nature In general I don't mind a bit of blarney or an extra line ex pressing thanks or approval when a correspondent la writing for some thing. I like a pat on the' back or a kick In the pants when It Is sin cerely given. But for heaven's sake don't tell me what la needless to say. I'm out of the third grade now. Some readers may infer that Ol' Doc Brady la a grumpy, hard-boiled, unsympathetic old meany. May? They do. and I admit they do It effec tively; at least It makes considerable bother for me trying to smooth out the wrinkles without surrendering my Individuality completely as certain nice gentlemen do who have their stuff all written for them by hacks nonentities who confine them selves to harmless old tomes for ma terial. Occasion for this outburst la a letter received from an Inventor. I have nothing against Inventor, mind. This one, however, has Invented three guesses no. It's a new type of tooth brush. At first brush I sus pected the fellow had sent It to me as a facetious gesture, but after ten tative application of the gadget I was disposed to think It may have some merit. The brush has perhaps one-tenth as much bristle as tooth brushes usually have. A step In the right direction, I think. This new type toothbrush has one feature that even I cordially com mend. The part carrying the bris tles Is detachable and may be ster ilized In boiling water. A great de terrent In mouth hygiene, to my mind, Is the unsanitary condition of a 'toothbrush that has been used more than once since It was steril virtue of having withheld a material fact. His appointment now Is con doned by the "liberals" merely be cause It is a fait accompli. If It had been known a few minutes be, fore Mr. Black's appointment, that he had ever been a member of the Klan, most of his present support ers would have favored appointing somebody else. But If, In full pos session of the facts, they could not have defended his appointment a few minutes beforehand, how can they defend it now? They can only defend It by at tempting to show that the Klan waa an Innocuous organization and that Mi .Black only Joined It for reasons of political expediency, and that Is what they are doing. If the Klan was innocuous in 1923, it follows that It should be equally Innocuous In 1937 or 1938, If It were revived. It follows that If you can object but half-heartedly to ita poli cies of persecution, cruelty, and bigotry In the paat, you can object but half-heartedly In the future. And If political expediency alone Is to be the guide of men's conduct, It follows that politician In the fu ture will be Justified in using the Klan. or any similar organization, as an Instrument of political power. Do the "liberals" want to be responsible for a revival of the Klan and all Ita kindred organizations, such as the Black Legion and the Nazi organi zations, on this soil? The Klan, In Its revived form In the 30's, was a money-msking racket for the men at the top. playing upon the prejudices of the Ignorant. If now they want to revive the Klan they have an excellent argument, i They can, and will, say to thousands of the same kind of men who joined ; It before, that the president appoint- 1 ed Mr. Black to the Supreme Court because he waa a Klansman, and that the administration Is behind the Klan. And don't think that the boya will shrink from using this method. They also believe In politi cal expediency. If political expediency Is to be the guide of man's conduct, then It follows thst all the noble spirits tn the world are plain fools. It was certainly far easier. In Alabama In 1923, to Join the Klan than to tight It, Just aa it Is easier now In Ger. many to Join the Nazis than to oppose them. Yet thousands of Ger mans have endured prison, death, and exile rather than give even ltp servlce to the Hitler regime. Martin Ntemoeller Is In Jail, Thomas Mann Is In exile, because they were willing to pay a price for principles. Any member of the Klan In Ala bama In 1923. whether he actively participated In night riding, assas sination and arson or not, condoned these lawless practices by his mem bership. In the language of the law he was an accessory before the fact The Klan came Into communities where Protestant. Catholic. Jew and Negro had lived in peace. It turned these communities into armed camps It set neighbor against neighbor, f i lend against friend, and created a reign of terror. If you go into t:iee communities today they have not et recovered. There were men In the South who fought the Klan then, at the risk of their physical and political Hits. It took a great deal more courage to fight the Klan la Alabama In 1923 than It doe to fight the utilities In a New la. cngre. But Mr. B!ck was not one of the people who took rlski tor his principles, if (gf i Jg Brady, M D. S TO SAY ized or made absolutely clean. But perhaps I am too squeamish about this. Many people who purport to be sticklers for cleanliness and would not think of using a towel or a wash cloth more than three weeks without resterlllzlng (laundering) consider It perfectly sanitary to use the same old toothbrush for months and months without ever sterilizing It. The detachable bristle part of this new type toothbrush resembles the special attachments the dentor uses when he Is cleaning and polishing your teeth. The bristles are extra ordinary fine and firm and In such compact form that they easily reach the grooves and Interstices that or dinary brushing falls to reach. . The Inventor does not claim the new brush will remove fixed tartar you must go to your dentor periodically for that anyway. But when your dentor has cleaned your teeth, the new type brush will more nearly keep them clean than ordinary brushes do. QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Urinary Aridity.

How In the world can "liberals" oppose the presence of a man like Justice Roberts on the Supreme Court on the ground that he was once a corporation lawyer and con done the presence of Mr. Black de spite the fact that he was once, by Implication, an assassin of civil liberties? In this whole affair we see, in a most flagrant light, the degeneration of the liberal spirit. And It Is such degeneration which la wrecking the whole world. The aubjectlon of means to ends is the final eclipse of public and private morality. The lie becomes the instrument tor achieving what Is conceived to be the public good; non-intervention becomes the Instrument for aggres sion; a crusade against communism becomes the mask of Imperialism; the torture of a helpless minority becomes the vehicle of race purifica tion: lynching becomes Justified by dilatory law enforcement. This way lies moral anarchy. 11 yO.O.Mclntvre NEW YORK, Oct. 2. Until recently I had not attended a funeral since 14. At that time I was so emotionally upset by the ser-1 vices for a play mate, killed in a hunting accident, that I wa in a state of hysteria, str u g g 1 1 n g to keop from laugh ing instead of joining the weep ers. Those muffled sobbings, with now and then the agonised1 shriek of parent, left an Indelible1 mark.

It is now used uni versally for shrinking the membranes of the n and nasal passages. There are msny inefficient ephe drine on the market. Don't be misled by a low price.

Eyes are not always dry, of course, but j the chapels somehow are surcharged with a hope the departed may be go ing away only for a little while. Preachers are no longer wringing j hearts with poignant panegyrics.! There are no tlp-toelngs and atti tudes of shush. Many services are restricted to the mere reading of some Psalm full of promt, a bene diction and a solo chanting hope of a better world ahead. I know a man who sends those be reaved a copy of the anonymously written eesayette "The Ship." It reads: "I am standing upon the sea shore. A ship at my side spread her sails in the morning breeze and starts for the blue lagoon. "She Is an object of beauty and strength and I stand and watch her until at length she Is-only a ribbon of white cloud Just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other. Then someone at my side says: Therel She's gone.' "Gone where? Gone from my sight that la all. And Just at the moment when someone at my side says: 'Therel She is gone!' There are other voice to take up the glad shout: 'Therel She comes!'" Newspapers have done much to blunt the sting of death as have writ ers of fiction. The rather terrorizing term death Is not often used any more. Not even demise or passing away. The term Is now "passing nn." That is what most of us believe no matter our faith that we pass on to at least another state of conscious ness, with perhaps a clearer realiza tion of life and It infinitude. One of my established friends until his passing a few years ago wa a venerable doctor with years of prac tice. He often stood by, helpless, while the so-called King of Terrors paid ruthless visit. And he liked to com pare such visitation to the gentle opening and closing of a door through which someone suddenly passed. In variably he noticed that before actual dissolution there wa a slight and convulsive twitch. and then as though one had faced a horror that did not exist a relaxing of facial muscles Into almost beautific expres sionindeed often a faint smileT One notices, too, a change In the decor of funeral parlors and chapels. There is little to suggest grief, but rather studied cheerfulnesa. Bright flower that seem to whisper Iran quality and peace. Attendants do not move about in long-faced solemnity. They are brisk and alert, and while sympathetic not mawkishly so. Fun erals were once forums of frenzied despair. All that ha passed for a sane feeling of loss but not one that is permanent.
