Th Four Freedoms
Br EARL WHITLOCK
Too many people, thinking
hurriedly, are apt to feel, of the
Four Freedoms, that they form
a fine, full-
sounding, 64
dollar phrase.
.Jltt right, but
VC'V;tll, after all.
rV f -j practical to try
J'-jMto guarantee
mem to the
world. They
consider them
impra c 1 1 c a 1,
- purely an unattainable dream
of idealistic theorists.
But, if you will think care
fully, you will realize that the
Four Freedoms are a national
MUST. Simply because, after
we have won the war, any na
tion which, for a time, suffers
from repression of speech or of
religion, or which feels fear of
some neighbor nation, or which
suffers from want during a lean
year or two in that nation, as
sure as the sun shines, there is
bound to arise some power-hungry
leader who will gel up on
his soap box and proclaim that,
if the people will only follow
his leadership, he will lead
them through a successful war
which will right their wrongs.
On the other hand, when all
nations shall enjoy the Four
Freedoms, no rabble rouser can
find anything to get his teeth
into. A contented people cannot
be roused to grab their guns
and to go to feuding with their
neighbors.
If war all over the world is
to end, all the world must have
the Four Freedoms.. Otherwise,
we shall know peace only in
the brief intervals between
wars.

of the Earl Whitlock Funeral
home will comment on "That

Not Powerless
"We think," Stone added,
"that constitutional government
in time of war, is not so power
less and does not compel so hard
a choice if those charged with
the responsibility for our nation
al defense have reasonable
ground for believing that the
threat is real."
.. "The challenged orders," Stone
said, "were defense measures for
the avowed purpose of safe
guarding the military area in
question, at a time of threatened
air raids and invasion by the
Japanese forces, from the danger
of sabotage, and espionage."
Challengers Told
Those challenging the regula
tions were Gordon Kiyoshi Hira
bayashi of Seattle and Minora
Yasul of Hood River, Ore. Hira
bayashi, a senior at the Univer
sity of Washington at the time of
his arrest was sentenced to
three months' imprisonment for
violating the curfew regulation
and for failing to report to an
evacuation center. Yasul, a
graduate of the University of
Oregon, was sentenced to one
year's imprisonment and fined
$5000 for violating the curfew
regulation.
.Approximately 70,000 Ameri
can citizens of Japanese ancestry
were said to have been evacuat
ed from their homes under the
orders.

DEWEY FAVORS HOG
KILLING IN WEST
COLUMBUS. O., June 21 (JP)
Gov. Thomas E. Dewey of New
York asserted today he favored
killing western hogs if that
would provide greater grain
feed for eastern dairy cattle
and poultry.
His remark came in a discus
sion with two western govern
ors at the opening session of
the Annual Governors confer
ence, and followed an assertion
by Dewey that unless more
grain became available in the
east milk rationing might be
come necessary by October.
Gov. Henry F. Schreicher of
Indiana told Dewey his state
had more hogs than ever before
and the grain was necessary to
feed them.

They said also that other agen

out of line with the true situa

Davis was said to feel that
there should be a centralized

to make changes from day to

Associates of Davis said there
had been an Inclination at the
