Editorially Speaking: oe
THE BRAND OF CAIN
The Eichman trial brings up a question.
How ‘can a death sentence for one man compensate
for the sacrifice of six million of his fellow men?
It would be an empty victory for a horrified world.
There is another sentence, with authority from the
Old Testament, those teachings which men like Eichman
flouted. ;
Jt.is the Brand of Cain on the. forehead. .
Why kill the man?
Let him live ... branded with the Mark of Cain,
stripped of citizenship, to wander over the world shunned
by everybody, accepted nowhere, rejected by his own, to
find his own miserable end.
Death is far too clean and simple for a man like Eich-
man.
Life is a far greater punishment,
DEBUNKING “SCHOOL PROBLEM"
To say the least, whatever problems our public
schools face have been vastly exaggerated by supporters
of federal aid to education.
Some information’ produced by a policy committee
of which Senator Styles Bridges is chairman does much
to ‘clarify the picture. :
; It deals with how the schools fared in the eight-year
period, between the school years 1952/53 and 1960/61.
Here are a few of the facts it records: The number of
pupils increased 35 per cent whereas the instructional
staff increased 45 per cent, and the number of children
per teacher declined from 26.2 to 24.4. The average
teachers’ salary increased 52 per cent, as against the much
smaller increase of 30 per cent in per capita personal in-
come as a whole and of 34 per cent in industrial wages.
And, whereas the addition of 9.7 million children popu-
lations required an additional 347,000 classrooms at the
rate of 28 children per classroom, about half again as
many—>507,500—were actually constructed.
To quote the report directly, these eight years “witnessed
tremendous progress in improving school support, build-
ing new classrooms, hiring new teachers, raising
teachers’ salaries . , . This is a proud, record of achieve.
ment, indeed.”
If facts mean anything at all, these mean that more
federal encroachment on education, with the bureau-
cratic controls that would come, is unneeded, unjustified
and dangerous.

. With GEORGE A. and
EDITH ANN BURKE
Three Networks have rejected a
plan for former President Truman
to do 26 one-hour shows, television
producer David Susskind told a
Federal Communication hearing.
Susskind said he will ‘go ahead
with the project anyway, financing
it himself and trying to sell it to
independent stations. He said some
interest had been indicated by the
British Broadcasting Corp. Susskind
also added that the quality of the
U. S. TV programs reached a record
low this year and will be worse next
year.
Leslie Uggams is a success at 18.
She is one of Mitch Miller's solo
singers and has a Columbia records
ing contract.
Leslie says that the real starting
point of her career was the day
she sent a postal card to “Name
That Tune” back in 1958.
She submitted a list of songs for
the program and added the fact
that she sang. When she was
chosen to be a contestant they told
her that she would be allowed to
sing.
The first song she sang was
“The Whole World in His Hands.”
She sang it with her heart in her
eyes and with ga voice that seemed
created just for singing. The re-
action was so favorable that she
was asked to sing on each pro-
gram for six weeks.
After this invitations began com-
ing her way. She appeared on
Jack Parr’s, Jimmy Dean’s and the
Andy Williams’ Show. It was on
these shows that she “attracted the
attention of Mitch Miller of Co-
lumbia Records. :
Leslie says she is glad she is
on the Mitch Miller show because
it has the right kind of music for
her. She is not a rock and roll
singer. .
Leslie plans to go to college and
major in music. She believes that
too many young singers put too
much faith in their singing ability
and mot enough in, planning for the
future when success may be a thing
of the past.
Carol Burnett, .the best comed-
ienne on television will be visited
by the ‘Person to Person’ show on
Friday, June 30. :
TBS-V cameras will focus on
her terrace apartment in the heart
of Manhattan.
Seen with Carol will be her teen-
aged sister, Christine, along with
her two pet Yorkshire terriers.
Carol will share the program
with Horst Buchlelz, known asthe
“new Valentino,” who stars in
“Fanny” with Maurice Chevalier.
Charles Collingwood visited him in
Paris some time ago.
Although the ‘Person to Person’
summer series will be new to view-
ers, the programs all were made
long ago—before the series was
cancelled.
Connie Stevens of “Hawaiian
Eye” was born Concetta Ann in
Brooklyn August 8, 1938, to Peter
and Eleanor (McGinley) Ingolia.
Her father is the professionally-
known Teddy Stevens. He played
bass and piano as a nightclub en-
tertainer for 38 years.
Jerry Lewis gave Connie her first
important break when he selected
her for his leading lady role in his
New York production, ‘Rock-a-bye-
Baby.” :
She then appeared in two of
‘Warner Brothers’ productions for
“Sugarfoot” and “Maverick.” She
was selected for “Hiawaiian Eye”
even before a script had been
written ‘for the projected series.
(Connie attended schools in
Brooklyn and New Jersey. She
was president of her freshman high
school and created a furor when
she convinced the faculty that the
final game of the World Series
should be tuned im. All bedlam
broke loose among the students as
the game grew in excitement and
Connie was removed as the fresh-
man’s guiding light. The class
later voted her most popular and
most likely to succeed.
‘When she moved to Los Angeles
later, she transferred to the Holly-
wood Professional School. Soon she
became the lead singer with a little
theatre group and won a part in
the Hollywood Repertory Theater's
production of “Finian’s Rainbow.”

Rambling Around
By The Oldtimer — D. A. Waters
SR ae
Half a century ago, or a little
more, a favorite pastime was a
steamboat ride around Harveys
Lake, either continuous of with a
stop off at the “Picnic Ground’.
We have had a liking for inland
boat trips ever since, but like the
Harveys Lake Line, most of them are
no longer operating. ’
At the western end of New York
State the old Niagara Gorge Route
connecting with a Lake Ontario boat
at Lewistown for Toronto made an
exciting ride. The Gorge Route was
a dilapidated affair, running a string
of obsolete connected street cars
down a steep incline along the Gorge
below the Falls. It showed no eyid-
ence of air brakes and moved
with lurches and jerks to: stir up |
the timid. It, was torn out many
years ago but the shelf which the
track was laid can still be seen.
This is historic country. The
French explored it and built Fort
Niagara as a vital link in the
chain down" the Ohio and Missi-
ssippi and same purpose, being a
base from which operations were
staged and to which Tories and/Ind-
ians flocked. Much of the fighting in
the War of 1812 was in this wvicin-
ity. ;
It was 4 short trip across Lake
Ontario to Toronto, where a change
was made to the “Kingston” for an
overnight trip via Rochéster and
The Thousand Islands to the head
of the St. Lawrence. The boat had
comfortable staterooms and excel-
lent meals, some amusements, and
plenty of opportunity to relax. The
next morning we changed to a smal-
ler boat for the trip down the
River, shooting the Rapids. This was
a real thriller, especially near Mon-
treal. There the river floor was like
a set of big steps and the boat drop-
ped over them with a thud. The
River portion of the trip was dis-
continued long ago, the lake por-
tion later. The new Seaway restores
boat service but without any rap-
ids.
Then we enjoyed the trip up Lake
Champlain from Plattsburg to Ti-
conderoga on the old “Vermont.
This is a big lake, a hundred and
eighteen miles long, twelve miles
wide at the widest part, average
about four, with many peninsulas
and islands. The Green Mountains
form a backdrop on the east, the
Adirondacks on the west: Another
fine trip that is no more.
[And Lake George in those days
had plenty of boat service. To the
beauty of the scenery and other
common attractions there was ad-
ded a special treat not scheduled.
A large group of French-Canadian
back at ‘Ticonderoga and
boys, maybe young college students
or high school seniors, enjoyed a
native
jam session singing their
| songs. Their ‘Allouctte” was really
something. The trip through the two |
lakes make a long but pleasant day.
The area of Lakes CHamplain and
George and the continuing valley of
the Hudson is probably the most
historic ‘area of its size on thé
American continent. Indians roamed
and fought here long before Cham-
plain. and Hudson, @ within three
months of each other in 1609, ex-
plored the waters named for them.
Adventurous explorers, trappers,
“coureurs de bois”, and Jesuit mis-
siomaries, traveled throughout the
area. ‘Militia and regular troops rep-
| resenting the French, Dutch, Eng-
lish, and later American, moved
back and forth, winter and summer.
Over ice or with snowshoes, through
forest paths or by specially made
| military roads, and particularly on
the streams and lakes, for over two
hundred years. .
Some movements involved a sing-
le canoe and a few men, others
many boats and large numbers. One
expedition had over a thousand
boats in a line six miles long, mov-
ing eight or ten thousand British
northward under Gen. Abercrombie
against the French. He was thrown
accom-
plished nothing. A year later a sim-
ilar army under Gen. Amherst took
the Fort which remained in the
‘hands of the English until Ethan
Allen made his famous capture at
the" beginning \ of the Revolution.
After Americans had tried an un-
successful attack against Canada,
Gen. Burgoyne led a big army south
and was forced to surrender after
two pitched battles near Saratoga.
For centuries skirmishes and bat-
tles were common all over the area
and massacres not uncommon. Forts
were built, besieged, captured, or
abandoned, and sometimes burnt or
blown up. There were naval bat-
tles on the Lakes between fleets of
locally made boats. In every one
of the Intercolonial Wars there was
action here. It was the area of the
turning point in _the Revolution,
and the scene of the most noted
treason in our history. There was
activity in the War of 1912; even
an abortive invasion by Confeder-
ates on Oct. 19, 1864.
Although the Hudson is navi-
gable to Albany, most of the best
scenery is from Kingston down. We
enjoyed all or portions of the trip
at least half a dozen times. Through
scheduled boat service on this route
is also discontinued.

“Man's Home Is His Castle”
1 have been now under foot for eight weeks, having moved
from bedroom, to living room, to kitchen, to bathroom, to clothes
closet—depending . on the state of privacy desired during periodic
house airing, house cleanings and floor scrubbings that disturb: the
serenity of what is humorously called “Man’s Castle”. Bald
It's surprising how much confusion is created in a sizable house
occupied only by a man-under-foot, a wife, an 88-year-old mother-
in-law, three dogs, two cats, a parakeet and—glory of glories—the
woman who cleans. ar
After being shunted from pillar-to-post, I have reached some
definite conclusions on domestic tranquillity!
I can see no sense in making the beds every morning! They
can just as well be aired and the sheets smoothed of wrinkles with
as little energy as possible. Why should the counterpane be’ “so
neatly smoothed out and tucked in over the pillows—arranged
“just so”’—when the whole thing is going to be mussed again in a
few hours! 3
What do I care if the doctor, the telephone installer, the
plumber, the cleaning woman or an occasional visitor finds the beds
looking as though I had slept in them—instead of on the floor! Who
cares what the public thinks ?
Beds should be private—Ilike underwear. I never could appreciate
making dust cloths out of good undershirts or a pair of shorts .". .
just because they might have a small hole in them. But there's a
theory around eur house that the ones I like best belong in the rag
bag—on the supposition and fear that I might some day get hurt
and be found lying along the road in an automobile accident! =
Who cares what the first aid man, the ambulance driver, or
the bone setter thinks? I never thought they'd be looking for holes
in your socks when there might be one in your head! 4
And whoever dreamed up this labor-saving idea of tearing the
beds apart, changing the sheets and pillow cases, when the bed in
the spare room has been used just once by your uncle, cousin or
aunt—who like as not will use it again this week-end! Housewives,
I find, are no gamblers. They are profligate wasters of energy.
They-love to disturb a house—and create ever bigger laundry bills.
A properly entertained and fed guest—be he family or stranger
—should be tired or bored, or considerate enough to sleep anywhere.
Who would think of changing the sheets if George Washington or.
Brigette Bardott had slept here? Might just as well reupholster the
sofa after Jackie Kennedy had wrinkled her skirts on it, or discard
a cushion after Shirley Temple had squashed. it. :
Whoever thought of a man’s house as his castle didn’t reckon
on what women have learned from their grandmothers apd Good-
housekeeping Magazine, nor did they consider the telephone . .-.
nor the doorbell—at mercy of every door-or-door salesman, wander-
ing minstrel, pedestrian who has lost his way, census enumerator,
baker, auction solicitor,’ Every-member-get-a-member canvasser,
Welcome Wagon hostess, small fry looking for lost dogs, vacuum
cleaner man, assessor, tree surgeon, meter reader, magazine sales-
man and itinerant soul-saver who reads passages of scripture to me
and informs me that only 135,000 souls will be admitted to Heaven
and do I want to be one—as I stand there attentive, one hand on
the half opened doorway.
There could be no greater fiction . .

shoes equipped with tractor treads, size seven and a half. :
(Which calls to mind that classic story about the Bostonian who
sailed into a shoe store in Atlanta. “What I need,” she explained
in Harvardese, “Is a pair of walking shoes, size seven.” The clerk
was appalled. “No lady,” he announced firmly, “EVER wears any-
thing more than a size two and a half.” So he found a pair,. of
shoes, labelled size two and a half, and they fitted perfectly.)
1 repeat, size seven and a half. And strictly non-skid.
And that’s what I get for wearing a pair of sneaks on a rainy
day. =
It took two stout clerks to haul me up off the floor after I had
measured my length. :
‘When one of my children was little, she was much puzzled.
Why, she wondered, did a person who was taking a spill, stop to
measure his length? Or for the matter of that, describe a parabola?
It seemed to her that there would hardly be time for geometric ob-
servations while flying through the air.
There wasn’t time last week. There was the skid, the frantic
groping for balance, and the catastrophe.
And it was most undignified.
But it did not result in a broken leg, so who cares?
A sprained shoulder, I can live with. I can even type.
A broken leg would probably immobilize me, though perhaps
I could have a walking iron imbedded in the cast.
It's nice to be tough, but the older you get, the less tough you
become, and from this time forward I am going to avoid visiting
stores. with slick floors on rainy days. ; ’
Any ‘time you can walk away from an accident, you're way
ahead of the game. LE

WASHINGTON, July 4—President Lincoln today answered an
appeal by Chief Justice Roger B. Taney of the U.S. Supreme Court
for an explanation of the executive order suspending the writ of
habeas corpus when ‘public safety” was involved.
Mr. Lincoln’s reply was not made directly to Justice Taney, but
was incorporated in a message toe the 37th congress.
The House and Senate opened its session today amid fanfare and
a wartime setting.
Washington Troops Pass in Review
The president, cabinet members and Gen. Winfield Scott, head of
the army, reviewed a parade of 20,000 troops in Pennsylvania av.
before the session opened. .
Another 60,000 troops, off ‘duty for the holiday, thronged streets
and saloons in the capital.
In his explanation of the habeas corpus order, Mr. Lincoln asserted
that ‘it was not believed that any law was violated.” ’
State of Rebellion Held to Exist
He recalled that soon after the first call for militia, he felt he must
authorize the commanding general, at his discretion, to suspend the
privilege of the writ as applied to ‘‘such individuals as he might
deem dangerous to the public safety.” ;
“This authority has been exercised but very sparingly,’’ Mr.
Lincoln continued, adding:
‘““The provision of the Constitution that ‘The privilege of the writ of
habeas corpus shall not be suspended unless when, in cases of rebel-
lion or invasion, the public safety may require it’ is equivalent to a .
provision—is a provision—that such privilege may be suspended when,
in cases of rebellion or invasion, the public safety does require it.”
A state of rebellion exists at the present and the suspension order
is justified; the president concluded. .
