Consolidation of County and City Governments. CUNT SULZBERGER ON KOREA Arthur Hayes Sulzberger, publisher of the New York Times, recently declared that the fighting in Korea was “the first sane war in history.” The publisher of what is probably the best newspaper in the United States, said this was true because for the first time “nations have | joined together to resist aggression, not merely in order to guard some particular strategic territory.” Mr. Sulzbergger offered an interesting observation | following this statement. He declared he was “not es- pecially anxious to see a truce reached at Pan Munjom,” and added that, “if hostilities ceased there, Russia would undoubtedly break out elsewhere, and checking the Com- | munists in any other spot in the world would probably be more expensive to us both in lives and in dollars.” The Editor does not wholly subscribe to Mr. Sulz- | berger’s views, especially about an end of hostilities in Korea, though the general truth in Mr. Sulzberger’s statement that the war in Korea is a “sane war,” is indis- | putable. It is interesting to note that the publisher of the | New York Times, which is supporting General Dwight D. | Eisenhower, and the General himself, both support the Democratic Administration’s 1950 decision to go into Ko- rea, and resist Communists’ aggression against a democ- racy. That General Eisenhower, and his supporters, not resort to challenging the decision to make the sacri- fice in Korea, ir the interest of freedom and democracy, for partisan political purposes, is a gratifying thing. That General Eisenhower admits bombing of China would not have been an easy solution to the Korean problem, as} some dissidents have claimed, is also reassuring. Partisan | politics should never be mixed in with the sacrifice of men’s lives in a fight for democracy, and the American public is fortunate this year in that both presidential | candidates agree on the ideal at stake in Korea, even though they might disagree on the methods which should | | be used to bring about a successful conclusion in Korea. A lot of sewing circles are not primarily concerned with sewing. The new method of teaching spelling, which has now been discarded in some areas produced a lot of poor spell- ers. The United States, it seems, fs more willing to main- tain a two-year draft law than European countries which are sure to be Stalin’s first victims.

It was an open indict- ment of our social system. The United States of America — the Land of the Free— a Home for | people seeking Justice — has it become so depraved that money can be mixed-in with justice? | I don’t think so — not the real | United States. But many of its pre- sent-day citizens are rotten to the core and to them Justice is another symbol of the dollar sign ($). | Every few days, news stories re- j late how accused criminals often walk the streets while innocent witnesses of a crime are held in jail because they lack sufficient bond money.

This column isn’t written either for or against Redus. It is a re- sult of too often reading of Justice being led astray by money. Only our lawyers — practicing a rigid code of ethics — can correct the situation immediately. Something however, or the United States is headed down the same road as the Roman Empire.
