Silly Business Congressman Rankin of secretary of War Robert Patterson to resign because he refuses to kick all Communists and ex-Commun-ists holding commissions out of the U. S. army. In the undersecretary's opinion no army officers should be discharged for political views, nor for their past party affiliations, they should be judged solely on their present records and their demonstrated reputations for devotion to country. , Secretary Patterson is right. a a N officer's character and fitness for his job should Lbe the test, not his political affiliations or ideas, past or future. Spprptnrv Patterson maintains a irreat deal of this noise and fury regarding Communists in the army pro ceeds from the fact that some present American oi ficers fought in the Abraham Lincoln brigade which opposed the Franco forces in the Spanish civil war. That is probably true. Aa we rpp it. the Rame hold in army as in civil life the innocence of the in dividual should be assumed, unless the contrary is proved beyond a reasonable doubt. If a veteran officer, whether he tougnt wun me orla in Rnnin nr rlirl not. hns a trood record, has dem onstrated his good character, ability and loyalty in the field he should remain desires, rprrnr dless of what past may have, or may not have been.

It rules and decrees and pontificates and the union leaders pay no heed whatever, unless they feel like it IN modern society, and particularly during a war, there should be no inalienable right to strike- unless all peaceful methods to settle a dispute have failed. ihen the right to strike would be equivalent to the right of revolution.

Never mind what this par ent was told, Suffice that it was thorough ly conte m p t ible of the character who su?aested it. Brady Tne corres. pondent, asks: Could this lead to Insanity? The answer is no. Acne blackheads and pimples has no moral significance one way or the other. The correspondent rounds out his morbid exploration wltn an other question: If a girl is ille gitimate will it have any effect on her life whatsoever, or be come hereditary? The answer to that is no. A girl or a boy cannot be Illegi timate, but may have illegiti mate parents If the child upon whom an ille gitimate parent and we instinc tively cruel "respectable" people place the stigma of bastardy had a fair break from the so-called human race his or her life would be no different from the life of any one else, and his or her offspring or descendants would be no different from yours and mine.
