Mwioa N c. —Ttadlmlr b Ksflov. Counselor Dear Three P’s: While I am not a lawyer, it seems to me that this country is too soft in handling spies and communist agent and other criminals. From newspaper re ports it would seem fnat many of these people are guilty of the crime of which they have been accused, but in some way or other they seem to get off. The handling of Powers, the U 2 avia tor, t.he C-47 and its passengers that were forced down in East Germany and the shooting of many planes throughout the world by Russians does not give a chance to any of the indivi- 1 duals to defend themselves. What is the reason for this? CURIOUS. Dear Curious: You bring out one of the fun damental differences in the ad ministration and application of the law under a democratic form of government and the ap plication and administration of the law under a dictatorship. Ini the U. S. the accused is consid ered innocent until he is proven guilty and he has the advantage of counsel and the benefit of all local as well as federal law. In Russia and other dictator coun tries the accused is considered guilty and has little opportunity to prove his innocence. In Rus sia usually there is no jury sys tem. particularly in cases affect ing the government. The ac cused is brain washed before he is ever brought to trial, does not have counsel and is usually tried before a judge who is already biased against the accused. The prosecuting lawyers ask and de mand answers to questions which practically convict the accused, without any recourse to defend himself in his own way. It is true that a great many communists, who were indicted on prima facie evidence of guilt, have been able to get off be cause of the leniency of our laws as well as technical faults. Take the case of Dr. Abel, a Russian communist spy who was caught red handed in Brooklyn with all Os his paraphernalia for broad casting to Russia on short wave powerful radio sets. He was convicted and sentenced to At lanta for 20 years. However, his lawyer almost got him off on a minor technicality. The war rant under which Dr. Abel’s apartment was searched was ob tained through the Bureau of Immigration on the basis that Abel was in this country under 1 a false name and with a fraudu lent passport. The FBI men were there and obtained the evidence on which Abel was convicted. Abel's attorney ap pealed to the I.T. S. Supreme Court that the evidence was ob tained under false pretenses as the search of the apartment was not made under a search and ' seizure warrant and therefore the evidence was obtained under illegal procedure. He almost got j off as the Supreme Court only upheld the conviction on the basis of a 5-4 vote. Then take the prominent labor | leader who has been tried time I and time again but has always j' gotten off under some technical ity of the law. He is not even a citizen but is still operating as a communist. Then take the .trial of another labor leader, who has been tried numerous times but never has been con victed. Here he was caught red handed bribing an employee of a Congressional committee to obtain secret information. The jury was packed, the jury was i furnished with newspapers printed in favor of the defend- j ant and character witnesses were paid and brought in to testify as | to the character of the defend ant. The evidence was clear and j outstanding, but the jury, which was prejudiced for various rea sons, came in with a decision of not guilty. The judge should have been removed from the bench for permitting the jury to receive the inflammatory news papers in favor of the defend ant and against the government. Contrast this with the trials of members of the Russian govern ment and other accused indivi duals. The trials were only pretexts, the accused were con victed by the single judge and the defendants just shot. This happened numerous times in hungary after the uprising; many an innocent person was just murdered. Consider the re cent trials-in Cuba, where in dividual* were tried and con- victed by the wholesale without behefit of counsel or jury and they were murdered- by the wholesale. Dear Three P's: I am in the process of ob taining a divorce. My married life was not too happy. Re cently I have met a very fine man who has been divorced. Like me, he was hurt in his marriage experience, and is rather shy and backward in his approach to all women. I think j he is a fine person and I would like to have him become inter ested in me. HOPEFUL, j You have been hurt in your | marriage and as a result you I are sympathetic toward this fine j man you have met. It’s true that in many eases of divorce j which have resulted in complete | disillusionment the man usually | shies away from women and in ; some cases becomes known as | so-called “women haters.” How ever, as has often been said, man was not made to live alone and, oi course, that applies to women. Take your time, if he is the man you want, get to know him be yond the surface, what his in terest might be, find his soft spot and if he is as good as you surmise he will succumb to your understanding and sympathetic attitude. Do not rush it, or else he will shy off further away j than he is now. | SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Con'td. from Page 3—Section 2 V produce tears of compassion. Real compassion, however, enters into the sorrows of others in a much more positive way. Let us say here, that the churches, through their various instru ments and agencies, are doing a creditable job of easing the suffering of many in this world. The hungry world is being fed a little, the naked are being clothed, the fatherless are being sheltered, the illiterate are be coming literate. But. in many a local church the spirit of benev olence is meager. Too often the old cry can be heard among Christians: "Let’s take care of ourselves first and then give the rest to missions." But even a small congregation can become a great church when it becomes missionary. What, then, are the vital con tributions that worship can. and often does, make to the righting of social wrongs? In the first place. Christian worship is the climate in whch God’s concern for humanity is revealed. Unique in Christian worshp is the crea tion of a climate in which the belever's magination is kindled and his affections aroused in behalf of the deprived children of the human family. The second contribution of Christian worship is that it in spires a sense of “I Can." The joning together of many hearts in prayer and praise, the reve lation to their minds of urgent unfinished Kingdom tasks need not get the plaintive response: "The task is too great. There is nothing we can do." Instead. Christian worship at its best in cites us to affirm: "I can." And thirdly, Christian worship impresses on the individual that the enterprises of social justice are on the hearts of many per sons. Amos himself would thrill to the victories won during the last three centuries in the realm of social justice under the ia Seagrams 1 Croum _ ujf,'cn.

Child labor virtually abolished, slavery destroyed among civilized men, disease conquered, hunger alleviated, : women emancipated, literacy I forging ahead, humane treatment of the mentally disordered, small defenseless nations protected ■ from aggressors—the ground we have covered in fighting these I evils is astounding. | Amos wanted his people to do something more than go through the motions of remembering the God of their fathers. He wanted ■ them to let worship purify their j hearts and flex their arms so ! that the moral expectations of jC.od would find expression on j the common ground of everyday | living and encounter. He was | scorned for his pains. It was ■ left for later generations to im- Eploment the longing of Amos: | “ . . . Let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an qver-flowing stream.” (Amos 5:24). Now it is in our hands!

New 4- H Project j To Turn Out Safer Teen - Age Drivers A new 4-H automotive pro gram introduced nationally ear!\ this year has a potential mem bership of 400.000 boys and girls. Half this number reaches driving age each year, according to the Agricultural Extension Service which directs the program. The project is a voluntary un dertaking for older 4-H Club members to be carried out ovet a three-year period. Specializec training will supplement drive: education courses given in manj high schools, but in some in stances will be the only "super vised” instruction available tr 4-H’ers in their home communi ties. The work assignments will b( guided by experienced voluntee. adult leaders assisted by stat< and county highway engineers, police, automotive experts and others qualified to help do the job. One workbook will be used for each year Unit I covers “The Car and the Highway"; Unit II "Maintenance and Operation”: Unit 111 "Operating the Car Ef ficiently”. More traffic deaths and in juries occurred last year than in 1958, and 28.7 per cent of the drivers involved in fatal ac cidents were under 25 years of age. Raymond C. Firestone, presi dent of the Firestone Tire &• Rubber Company, which is spon soring the program, stated "We are particularly hopeful that this program will help reduce the high incidence of fatal accidents among our young drivers.” Those engaged in the 4-H au tomotive care and safety program contend that the more young people learn about the car they are driving, the less likely they are to take chances with that car. For club members who fulfill the objectives of the automo tive program. Firestone will pro vide a variety of awards includ ing a week in Chicago as a delegate to the National 4-H Club Congress, plus S4OO college scholarships for six of the high est ranking 4-H'ers in the na tion.
