PAGE TWO THE MICHIGAN DAIL'Y' I R.IDAY,-AULY 20, 1951 THE MICHIGAN DAIL ?RIDAY, ~U1JY 20, 1951 i rdi o dt II By DAVE THOMAS HOSE WHO retain some shreds of op- timism regarding the possibility of the Catholic Church learning anything from its bitter post-war experiences in Commun- ist-ruled Europe and the Balkans have doubtless found two recent Catholic actions rather edifying. In what appears on the surface to be a socially-enlightened move, the Pope has been represented by official Vatican sources as strongly favoring a system of socialized medicine which would improve the physical health of nations. In Spain, however, the Church, intensi- fying its campaign for greater "morality" in public life has pressured the civil gov- ernments of the various provinces to tight- en restrictions on bathing suits and beach conduct. Henceforth men must wear bathing suits that cover their chests, and trunks which reach nearly to their knees. Women must have their backs covered and wear skirts on their suits. One particularly zealous gov- ernor decreed that it is illegal to wear even the approved bathing suits on the beach or on boats or "in general anywhere except in the water." Under the order, sunbathing is forbidden except in special enclosures prop- erly screened off to separate the sexes. A Bishop was moved to comment in a pastoral letter: "Do they stop to think that those who seek the coolness of the beach and the agreeable freshness of the sea while ne- glecting moral laws are exposing them- selves to eternal fire? Have they no fear? The fear of God is indeed the fount of wisdom." Now it must be allowed that if some Span- iards wish to have the hierarchy decide for them what they can wear on the beach, that is their own business. But this trivial bath- ing suit incident is merely another instance of the arrogance which the Catholic Church displays in every country where they can get away with it toward citizens who are not Catholics and perhaps do not believe that sunbathing is likely to expose them to eternal fire. * * * * FURTHERMORE, in the socialized medi- cine letter, the papal spokesman was careful to emphasize that the Church wasn't approving any of the "materialistic and atheist" theories which modern medicine holds about therapeutic abortion and birth control. The Pope was quoted warning against the "attempt . . . being made to violate the right of a human person.." by Mathusian theorists. To all who are familiar with Catholic inroads on civil liberties in this country as well as abroad, a comparison of the bathing edicts and this statement makes it clear that where violations of human rights are concerned, the definition of "violation" depends on who is doing the violating as far as the Catholic Church is concerned. Acetic, anti-humanistic pronouncements as that of the bishop quoted above would stand up better if the Church's growing material wealth and the inclination to pro- tect the sources of this wealth were not so apparent. It is this inclination, coupled with the tyranny of the hierarchy which has been a contributing factor to the rise of Com- munism in Europe, and if the Church hopes to seriously challenge Marxism, it had better mend its ways. DORIS FLEESON: Grass Roots Reports Indicate Senate Turnover DREW PEARSON: Washington Merry-Go-Round WASHINGTON-Secretary of State Ache- son has instructed American Embassies throughout the world to play down the chances of peace in Korea. Acheson has sent a confidential cable to U.S. diplomats abroad that there is absolutely no sign the Communists are sincere in their desire for permanent peace. On the contrary, he says, all available evidence indicates the Communists hope to trap U.N. armies with their guard down and launch a sneak attack. Acheson's pessimism finds support in an- other quarter-a combined analysis by the top far east strategists for the Army, Navy, and Air Force. They have submitted a re- port to the joint chiefs of staff warning that the Chinese seek only a temporary armistice which will give them time to build up for another strike. This report does not make it clear, how- ever, whether the Chinese will strike in Korea or at French Indo-China. Apropos of this, the French Ambassador, Henri Bonnet, has been calling at the State Department to warn of a pending attack on Indo-China. The French now want to include that area in the final Korean settlement, in order to bring real peace to the orient. Indo-China, the French indicate, is far wealthier than Korea; is the gateway to Burma, Singapore, and India; and, if fight- ing in Indo-China could be stopped, an en- tire army would be released to supportI Eisenhower in Europe. GEORGE WASHINGTON HERE IS WHAT George Washington wrote about inflation and price control on March 31, 1779, in a letter to James Warren: "Is the paltry consideration of a little dirty pelf to individuals to be placed in competition with the essential rights and liberties of the present generation, and of millions yet unborn? "Shall a few designing men for their own aggrandizement, and to gratify their own avarice, overset the goodly fabric we have been rearing at the expense of so much time, blood and treasure, and shall we at last become the victims of our own abomin- able lust for gain? "Our cause is noble, it is "the cause of mankind; and the danger to it is to be found within ourselves." NEWS LEAK SALTY CONGRESSMAN Carl Vinson of Milledgeville, Ga., Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, sizzled the other day over a news leak to Drew Pearson. The story he didn't like was about a subcommittee report inferentially criticiz- ing him for wanting a Marine Corps ware- house built inland at Albany, Ga., in his district, when the Marines who would use the warehouse were located several hun- dred miles away on the seacoast at Camp Lejeune, N.C., and Cherry Point, N.C. Congressman Herbert Bonner of North Carolina is chairman of a sub-committee investigating these matters, so the gentle- man from Georgia fixed him with a gimlet eye. "I understand," he said. "that you have been giving information to Drew Pearson. Don't you like the way we do things in my committee?" The scrappy North Carolinian, who inci- dentally did not happen to be the source of the story, bridled. "Carl," he fired back, "I gave no infor- mation concerning you to Drew Pearson or any other columnist. I don't know what you're talking about, but I resent your in- ference that I did something untrustworthy. When I have something to say about a fel- low, I say it to his face, not behind his back."

WASHINGTON - Reports of primary troubles being exchanged by Senators indicate the possibility of a substantial 1952 Senate turnover although no great altera- tion in the party ratio is expected. Veterans and freshmen, Republicans and Democrats alike, are among those receiving the bad news from the grass roots. Demo- crats among the one-third of the Senate (32) up next year seem a little the more secure personally; nearly all the class can claim the normal allegiance of their states for their own party. The latter fact, of course, is why-bar- ring the unforeseen-the Senate is likely to remain narrowly held by one party. Republicans in trouble included: Sen. Hugh Butler of Nebraska, wealthy conservative grain dealer and ardent Taft supporter, who hears that Gov. Val Peterson wants his job bad. Sen. Butler plaintively complains that he raised the governor by hand, too. The primary victor there will almost surely win against the Democratic nominee. Sen. Harry Cain of Washington, whose opposition within his party has not yet found an opponent for him. They have approached the mayor of Seattle, who has some reputation as a vote-getter. But Cain is a powerful talker; he cannot be discounted in a campaign. WASHINGTON Democrats expect to nom- inate Rep. Henry Jackson, an attractive Congressman but not so formidable that he will not have difficulty in the face of real strength. Sen. William Langer of North Dakota, who hears that Rep. Fred Aandahl-who just got here but was three times elected governor - wants to move up. Another G.O.P. state. Sen. Arthur Watkins of Utah, who doesn't know whether Marriner Eccles will really try for it. When the Federal Reserve parted from their long-time chair- man last week, their farewell gift was a round-trip railroad ticket-Washington to Salt Lake and return. His emotion con- firmed their belief that he is a permanent victim of Potomac fever. Democrats have hopes of recapturing Utah and Rep. Reva Beck Bosone, the handsome and articulate redhead, will be happy to make the try. On the Democratic side, the storms are in the South. Sen. Kenneth McKellar of Tennessee, dean of the Senate, finds Rep. Albert Gore already campaigning against him. Sen. Tom Connally of Texas only hears that Gov. Allan Shivers and Martin Dies are eyeing his scalp. Former Sen. Claude Pepper's friends are trying to dissuade him from running against Sen. Spessard Holland in Florida but they report he is stubborn. (Copyright, 1951, by The Bell Syndicate, Inc.) Huntington Again.. alty and tain of t To the Editor: M. would of Ann.

DAILY OFFICIAL BULLETIN - I 4 4 e ;4 I I DRAMA 11 THE YOUNG IRELAND THEATER COM- PANY, presented in a bill of plays at Lydia Mendelssohn Theater. AFTER A BEVY of mechanical mishaps, curtain speeches and program confusion, the Young Ireland Theater Company rolled into Ann Arbor yesterday for both matinee and evening performances. Although one day late, both shows substantially indicated that they were well worth waiting for. Welded together by a unique understand- ing of the art of the stage and undismayed by the occasional inadequacy of sets, they made the international exchange of theatre groups look like a very good thing, at least for audiences on this side of the Atlantic. Since Synge's classic one-acter, "Riders to the Sea" was the only play in their bill left unperformed after the first day, it is also safe to say they are very versatile and uni- formly adept at all they attempt. The feature of the first day's programs, and happily the play that is to be the most repeated, was Sean O'Casey's "Sha- dow of a Gunman." Studded with two fine performances by Michael Laurence as a tenement poet and Milo O'Shea as a weathered peddler, it captures the fervent patriotic spirit of the Twenties in Dublin from the bitterly cynical vantage of O'- Casey. It is the ultimate indictment of the barroom defender of independence, and the ivory tower artist. Because it is an angry play, its lovely humor is often incongruous. Director Eric Bentley, however, never allows the broad idea was better developed by the later in "Purgatory." * * * author Sixty-First Year and managea by students of ersity of Michigan under the of the Board in Control of Publications Editorial Staff mas .........Managing Editor lint .............Sports Editor hut .........Women's Editor Business Staff tz ...... ...Business Manager .Ad ...Advertising Manager Jordon ...

They were "The Shadow of the Glen" by Synge, Yeats's "Purgatory" and Lady Gregory's "The Rising of The Moon." They were all extremely well acted but "Purgatory," the powerful core of the bill, seemed to achieve its considerable effects most tellingly. Undoubtedly this was due to Christopher Casson's inspired delivery of Yeat's impassioned poetry. His role is that of an old beggar, unable to face the circum- stances of his birth, In reliving the scene of his conception, his vision is dramatically shared by his young son whereupon the father is forced to repeat the murder of his father upon his son. This is the purgatory of the earthbound mortal who must constantly relive some moment of his past life. The flanking plays were notable for their charm and Irish wit, Synge's in particular conveying a high feeling for the Gaelic comic spirit. The rustic flavor of the dialogue seemed entirely understood by Nora O'Ma- hony as the peasant wife, and her assorted men, Michael Laurence, Michael Dunne, and Milo O'Shea. O'Shea as the aged husband who arises from his "deathbed" was excep- tional. "The Rising of The Moon" also con- tained moments of sharply effective dia- MUSIC U. "I DESPITE a time error in an announce- ment in yesterday's paper, caused by two unidentified gremlins on night desk, a sizeable crowd of many hundreds turned out last night for a concert by the Summer Session Concert Band and were rewarded with a polished, good-humored performance. Prof. William D. Revelli demonstrated once again why his bands are continually ranked among the best in the nation as he put his large group through a variety of melodic and rhythmic paces. Displaying a well-balanced tone and im- pressive versatility, the band ran through a program which ranged from football game marches and an obstreperous Latin Samba to the finale of the Strauss tone poem "Death and Transfiguration." The sustained artistry of the musicians was best displayed in the Strauss ekerpt and in the concluding number, Shostako- vitch's brassy finale to the Fifth Sym- phony. I thought the performance of "Death and Transfiguration" a little stiff toward the end but Strauss' linked periods were otherwise handled with admirable control. The brass sections were fine in ning, the 26th. J, Well, anyway, Jane, Mr. O'Malley HAS a gingerbread cottage exactly like he said. So, your Fairy Godfather was right for a change.
