It has because there was so much more to it than the senseless act of an ego-bloated thespian: To think of the crime in the simple phrase, “Booth did it,” is to gloss over its core. In a larger sense, I would suggest, Stanton did it; Edwin M. Stanton, Secretary of War. And behind Stanton were the Abolitionists, the Radical-Liber als of that day. Let me tell you why I think so: • Throughout the almost four years Stanton served in Lincoln’s cabinet, he ruthlessly undercut the President, all the while serving as a secret trans mission belt to such congres sional South haters as Sumner, Wade, Sevens and the like. • Stajiton established his “in” with these powerful people while serving the out-going Dem ocratic administration, that of Buchanan, as its pro-slavery At torney General. He did so by funnelling information to the( incoming Republicans. Such du plicity ygg tlm Vinl7motIt nf flip man. • The day der, April 14,1865, Stanon broke the engagement he had made to accompany the doomed Pres ident to Ford’s theatre, More over, Stanton induced Grant to do the same. • Lincoln, who knew a plot was afoot (it wasn’t the first ope) that day asked Stanton to particular person to be Stanton, with tHt He, too, refused, giving as his reason the press of business. Subsequent investigation dis closed that the two of them real ly had nothing much to do. Stan ton, as a matter of fact, went home and to bed. * * Immediately after Booth fir ed his bullet and for three hours thereafter, every commercial telegraph line out of Washing ton went dead. The lines were not cut; they were grounded. All were controlled from Stan ton’s office. i. • The search for the fugitive began immediately — in every direction but the most obvious, along the road leading south out of Washington, down the Mary land peninsula. This road — Anacostia. to Port Tobacco — was a notorious underground railroad and was inhabited by persons of rabid secessionist sympathies. For four hours af ter the shooting, the road was left uncovered. That was time enough, if Booth had not brok en his leg, for the assassin to have crossed the Potomac into The Confederacy. , • Days later, when a certain Major O’Briene, searching for Booth, luckily stumbled upon his trial, he wired Stanton’s War office of his findings. O’Briene was immediately summoned back to Washington and Stan ton’s notorious' henchman, in fayette C. Baker, “Father of the Secret Service” was assigned to bring in Booth. By then, the IwriAlf 1MY j{£ OHw Editor* Say THE QRIPTON TIME* Marijuana b Dangerous For a long time the “hop Jheads’ have insisted that no physical danger is involved in smoking “pot,” or marijuana. The truth is, up until now there had been very little hard infor mation available, one Way or the other, as to any lasting phy sical damage. The short-range effects have been apparent; hallucinations,1 narrowed vision and distortion of time, loss of coordination, the lack of ability to concentrate and reason, confused associa tions, blurred speech,, etc. But all of this, claim the apologists for “pot,” is “no worse than” getting drunk on alcohol. But if getting high on marijuana is aS bad as intoxication from booze, this alone should be sufficient condemnation. According to Dr. Hardin Jones, Prof, of Phy siology and Medical Physics at the University of California in Berkeley, each year 75,000 per sons die because of alcohol (25, 000 from accidents and 50,000 because they graduate from heavy use of alcohol and perish from liver disease). Additional ly, says Dr. Jones, about 300, 000 live but have alcohol-induc ed injuries. An additional hazard of mari juana is that when a new and more powerful drug is intro luced Into a eifcle of “pot” smok ers, the group wil take up the new drug. The history of most hard drug addicts shows that they started with marijuana. Now^ however, scientists ate turning up evidence about mari juana which should discourage any sane person from touching the stuff. Dr. Davis Wade, Tex as State Commissioner for men tal health, reports that research is turning up definite evidence that marijuana causes perma on his head.” Instead, the evi dence shows, Booth himself was murdered while* in the act of surrendering — but who fired the shot was never conclusively established. Boston Corbett, who subsequently claimed to have done in the man who done in Lincoln,” talked his way into an insane asylum, where he ended his days. • Booth’s dairy was hand de livered to Stanton. When Stan ton gave it up, two years later, 18 pages had been ripped away. • Upon Stanton’s orders, the eight people charged in the con spiracy were hooded. A canvas sack was placed over the head of each and tied at the neck. Only an opening for the mouth was allowed, and speech was forbidden. All but the woman, Mary Surratt, were so treated. At their “trial,” ear and eye wadding were added to this medieval torture device. In ad dition, the prisoners were plac ed in stiff shackles that prevent ed their writing. • “Tried” is hardly the word. These living dead were railroad ed by av military commission made up of officers of Stanton’s choosing. Those misbegoit who did not mount the gibbet were sent to the 'malaria-infested Dry Tortugas. You didn’t know all this? Wen, unpalaitable facts have a way of becoming historicaUy reces sive. I have been thinking of Ken ' you-slpll Doctor in the Kitchen8 by Laurence M. Hursh, M.D. Consultant, Katicnal Dairy Council NUTIRITONAL MUSINGS Today seems a day for haying some random thoughts about how we eat, rather than an essay on a single phase of nutrition. Take color coordination. It has been suggested by some nutrition ists as an approach to food selec tion, for planning menus as a matter of balanced nutrition. Combine Colors The idea is to combine the greens and yellows of vegetables with the reds of meat, the whites of cereals and bread, the pinks and yellows of fruits, the whites of cream and the golds of milk and cheese. “If you’re a one color person,” says an item in Food and Nutri tion News, “you’ll be skipping the necessary foods and sooner or later, this lack will show up in the way you look and feel.” Well, that’s one approach to selecting foods from the basic four food groups. Perhaps it’s for you, unless you’re color blind. Hair and Nutrition /'And then, perhaps for the ladies in particular, there is the fact that your hair can be notice ably affected by your nutrition, It is well known that human hair color, and texture, change during .protein-calorie malnutrition. In countries where starvation and famine are common, loss of color and natural curl, brittleness and sparseness are so evident and fre quent that they are used for di agnosis of protein deficiency. Three Meals A Day? And what if you don’t like three meals a day? Why not di vide the same amount of food in to 5 or 6 smaller meals. There’s no set rule you have to follow unless your doctor says otherwise. For variety you can also vary the size of your meals. Have a heav ier meal for your weekend lunch, then a light supper. And some day, instead of Skipping, try a hearty breakfast , Women Need Nutrients * Finally, of all things, surveys show that women are less likely than men to get the nutrients they need each day. Mothers may be prone to neglect their own meals because they must pay at tention to the food needs of the family — or they are figure con scious without fully understand ing nutrition. Thus, women should be more careful about their eating habits. For both their own sake — and in order to set a better example for their children, especially their teenage daughters who soon may experience the stress of mother hood without the health backlog of sound nutrition having pre pared them ideally for the ex perience. nent and irreversible brain dam age. Dr. Wade told a Conference of the Texas Association of Men tal Health that “We are getting substantial research evidence tc indicate that marijuana is caus ing brain damage — irreversible brain damage.” “This is organic cellular dam age,” Dr. Wade said. “First it causes personality alterations.., a flattening of the personality, what we might call a decay of the moral fiber.” Such victims, he said, display apathy; a deterioration of per sonal appearance; a deteriora tion in behavior patterns; loss of motivation toward accomplish ment; and a clumsy way of think ing. Dr. Wade’s chilling conclus ion: “Persons who suffer such brain damage do not ever re cover from it.” Investigation shows thaf most users of marijuana first do so for no better reason than that some person already using the drug asks another to “join the fun.” There is only one answer to give to that invitation: “No; no; and a thousand times, no!” 4$ $00 Answers & Erie Qmfipijs by Martha Logan Q. , thMt will help make carving the tur key ea‘4y for the host? A. Pla6p the turkey on a large platter. Avoid overcrowding the platter with garnishes. The br'east of the turkey should be at tn» carver’s left. Have a sharp carving knife, a long pronged fork, and an extra plate handy for carving thigh and drumstick. Q. Why does the roasting time for poultry sometimes vary from the recommended printed sched ules? A. The shape, quality and temperature of the bird; the roasting pan; method used (dry vs. moist heat) and oven tem perature are all variables which will influence the roasting time. The roasting time charts for deep-basted Butterball Swift’s Premium Turkeys found on the outside of the wrappers are carefully tested each year for best cooking methods and most accurate schedules. The direc tions are written for cooks who know all about turkey and es pecially for those who don’t. 101 PROOF-8 YEARS OLD
