They were three of the five persons indicted for murder in connection with the slaying of Albert Nusbaum, 60- year-old contractor.

Your parents gave it to you. They gave you your opinions, too. The toy train on its tin track was put away long ago. But did you put away the childish habit of accept- ing ready-made ideas? Do you still think as you're told to think? Are your opinions wound up with a key? Many grown-ups who have junked their toy-train-tin- | track opinions read the Forum, a truly liberal, fair-and- square magazine of discussion. The Forum offers many sides of public questions and sponsors none. Religion, politics, social science, anything and everything of a ' controversial nature find expression in its pages. The Forum puts the question. You decide it. Here’s one, for instance: - Who Should Control the Air ? Debated by Army and Navy The size is 9x12 feet A high Army officer, who remains in syncope as a matter of propriety, contends that a new element has been added to the vital strategy of national defense, the air-action phase. It normally occurs after the sea-action phase and before the land-action phase. Admiral Moffett, “Father of Naval Aviation,” in “Air Service versus Air Force,” answers the Army officer’s point by saying that the air is merely a new route to reach the old objective, the enemy’s citadel; and that the air is not a new objective. These two papers run counter to each other on other important points: the value of coast defense by airplane, the value of bombing planes operating over long dis- tances. The Forum asked these high officers to prepare their articles from a purely mili- tary point of view. By thoroughly digesting their rival theories, you will be capable to read, critically, the political discussion of a separate Army Air Service shortly to begin in Congress. LincoLN as A STRATEGIST, by Major-General Sir Frederick Maurice. According to this British military critic, the chief difficulty of a democracy in waging war lies in mak- ing and enforcing autocratic decisions with democratic means. -Lincoln, so this writer belicves, met and mastered this problem, despite what other critics have said.

Our IMaGiNARY IsoLaTiON, by Edgar Ansell Mowrer. The Dawes Plan has committed the United States to take an interest in the political and economic fortunes of Europe, and this writer sees us tacitly taking part in the reconstruction of Europe, whether we realize it or not. Free Speecu 1y THE Porrir, by G. A. Stud- dert-Kennedy. Mr. Kennedy takes vigor- ous exception to the view that preachers should keep politics out of their sermons. But you may ask, having finished this article, “I wonder what Mr. Kennedy would do if he were a regular preacher, instead of chaplain to His Majesty, King George V.” Tre Fancies or THE Evorurionists, by John Roach Straton. One of the most vigorous champions .of the Fundamental- ists’ cause questions our right to believe in organic evolution, and makes a startling suggestion as to our museums of natural State. history. Tue ALpHABET oF LiFg, by Count Hermann Keyserling. The grammar of civilization is mechanism and machines.
