Petrilio, head of the American Federation of Musicians, has not learned much from the recent action of Congress. He announces that members of the Federation will not be permitted to work fm television unti] an indefinite date in the future after the union has determined the effect “of television upon present-day radio. He pointed out that use of “live” musicians was denied the television in- dustry last year and television broadcast- es agree that the stand of the union will retard the immediate development of video programs. The union has entered into. am agreement with Hollywood pro- j ducers that films containing music will not used in television and reiterates its stand against permitting standard radio programs containing music to be presented simultaneously on standard broadcast bends and frequency modulation outlets. This means that if a station broadcasts on sett bands, it ‘will have to have double rews 6f musicians. - The principle championed by Mr. Petrilie and his union seems to be that the world owes the musicians a living and that here can be no progress along dny line wntil that Ijving is guaranteed. It not only requires the employment of unnecessary musicians, who would be paid without working, but it would compel the user of new inventions to pay a toll to the union. In the long run, we doubt if the unions can put these principles over and levy such a toll upon the public. be PARADE IN TRIESTE The 250,000 inhabitants of Trieste arned out recently to view a British- American parade, commemorating the inet anniversary of the surrender of Ger- san armies in Italy. Press dispatches say that for three end one-half hours, Allied infantry, motor- ed enits, tanks and guns rolled past the i re viewing stand.

Sub- versive groups are again using the Ameri- can freedoms as a means to un-American ends. The striking fact here is that the majority of those involyed in subversive activities are American-born men and women. Obviously, somewhere jin the growth from childhood to.manhood: these | People soured on the ideals'and creed of their country. ; Why? One doesn’t by nature bite the hand that feeds him: Medical science has invented serums to prevent disease before disease can start. That’s common sense. The individual adult can join in a similar common sense approach to the prevention of un-Ameri- | eanism. Take a leaf from The American Legion’s book. The Legion has long fol- lowed a theory of educating youth in the value and practicability of good American- ism. More than 4,000,000 boys have learn- | ed to be just winners and just losers through participation in the Legion Junior Baseball leagues. More than 800,000 high* schoolers have prepared and delivered addresses on the United States constitu! tion in the Legion’s national oratorical contests. Another 100,000 have learned and applied the principles of democratic | government at Boys State programs held annually by the Legion. The idea is simple. The youngsters, exposed to the practice of good ¢ while his mind in the spongy stage, develops enthus' own privileges and duties as a citizen. This enthusiasm is a serum against un-Ameri- canism. It is a bulwark against the germ of radicalism those exponents the youth will encounter for the first time in college or at work. It is the light that will show him the evils behind the patriotic front of sub- versive groups. Give the youth a chance to look be- fore he leaps. The community can do this as well as The American Legion by spon- soring youth activities on its own. Parents, especially, can do this by introducing children in the home to the meaning of Americanism. Un-Americanism thrives on ignorance and doubt. It dies when it meets confident, intelligent faith in America. is Politics. could be applied morality; could be an attempt to make the commun- ity a better place in which to live. Too many think they are being natural and honest, when they are only being boorish and rude. It isn’t alwe to be yourself. ys wise ARREST FOR AN ARREST? When the United States arrested the Russian naval officer a few weeks ago for trial on a charge of espionage the reaction in Russia was a source of speculation. From Moscow comes a news report | that may have a connection. It tells of criminal charges proceedings to be brought against a clerk in the U. S. Em- bassy, accused of “insolent hooligan acts” towards an actress in a Moscow theatre. There may be no relation between the two matters but, in the past, the Soviet has indicated something of a tit-for-tat tech- nique. We arrest a Russian officer; they arrest an embassy clerk. Now, there is something to compromise! state Ideal politeness is to listen with in- terest to things you know all about when they are told you by who knows nothing about them. one FIRST ATOMIC POWER PLANT The blueprint for the first plant to | produce power from atomic reaction has been prepared, declares Dr. Farrington Daniels, director of the University of Chi- | cago’s Metallurgical Laboratory, who says that the plan will be sent to Oak Ridge, Tennessee, where the first power plant is being constructed. Dr. Daniels points out that the work is experimental and that a power plant test using atomic reactors cannot at present | compete economically source of power. If future developments bring down the cost, it is possible that there will be competition with both coal and water with coal as a Chapter 15 - T= apartment to which the Lady Rowena had been intro- | duced was fitted up with some rude attempts at ornament and | magnificence, and her being | placed there might be consid- | ered as a peculiar mark of re- spect not offered to the other prisoners. Here she was left to meditate upon her fate, until the actors in this nefarious dram: had arranged the several part! | which each of them was to: per- form. It was about the hour of noon, when De Bracy, for whose ad- vantage the expedition had, been first planned, appeared to prose- cute his views upon the hand and Possessions of the Lady Rowena. He saluted Rowena by -doffing his velvet bonnet but Rowena declined, by her gesture,. the | proffered compliment, and. re- } plied, “If I be in the presence of my jailor, Sir Knight—” “Alas! fair Rowena,” interrup- ted De Bracy, “you are im the presence of your captive, nob your jailor; and itis from your fair eyes that De Bracy must receive that doom which you fondly ex- pect from him.” “Sir Knight, I know you not, and no man wearing chain and spurs ought thus to intrude him- self upon the presence of an un- protected lady.” “You are unjust, Lady Rowena,” said the knight, biting his lips in some confusion; “yourself free from passion, you can allow no excuse for the frenzy. of another, although caused ;'by your! own beauty.” “Courtesy of tongue,” said Ro- wena, “when it is used to veil churlishness. pf deed, is but a knight’s girdle around the breast of a base clown, I wonder not that the restraint appears to gall ou—more it were for your onour to have retained the dress and language of an outlaw, than to veil the deeds of one under an affectation of gentle language and demeanour.” | “You counsel well, lady,” said the Norman; “and in the bold lan- action, I tell thee, thou shalt never leave this castle, or thou shalt leave it as Maurice de Bracy’s wife.” “Trust me, when I leave it shall, be with one who has not. learnt to despise the dwelling and man- ners in which I have been brought, up.” | your said Be Bracy, “th ‘fitay think it lies too om i i apprehension.

But smile on my suit, lady, and the wounded champion shall have nothing to fear from Front-de-Boeuf.” “Save him, for the love of Heaven!” said Rowena, her firm- ness giving way under terror for her lover’s impending fate. “It is thy love mus‘ buy his protection.

Of them all, perhaps, De Bracy least regretted the inter- ruption; for his conference with the Lady Rowena had arrived at a point where he found it equally difficult to prosecute or to resign his enterprise.
