It Is not given to our gen erals and admirals. It is not given to the President and his cabinet. It is given only to our elected repre- sentatives the congress of the United States. We have given the congress also the power, In time of war, to abridge some of our liberties for the common good. The most fervent hope of every American heart is that the differences between nations may be settled without war. Only a burning wrong can force us Into another war. Only a burning devotion to the principles of free government and to national unity and strength on the part of all the people can insure our victory over the forces of tyranny, if it Is our destiny again to engage them. In 1776 we won freedom; in 1812 we held freedom; in 1881 we preserved the union; in 1898 we strengthened freedom; in 1917 our freedom was threatened and saved; in 1941 again our freedom was attacked and saved. THE OPENING words i I , f , , The of written by Thomas Paine lowest the tide of America's at hope, December, 1776, perhaps of ell that has been written expresses the true feeling of the sixth prom-- ; ise of a good citizen. They say it was written upon a drumhead by the campfires of Washingtons defeated and retreat ing army. By order of General Washington it was hastily printed In Philadelphia, rushed to the front and read aloud to the troops on Christmas night before the crossing of the Delaware and the attack on Trenton, which was the turning point of the Revolutionary War. It reads: "These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not easily conquered; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict, the more glorious the triumph. What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly; 'tls dearness only that gives every thing its value. Heaven knows how to put a proper price upon its goods; and it would be strange indeed, if so celestial an article as freedom should not be highly rated."

The case came to light again recently when Mrs. Kulinich, now 34, asked a federal court td block a coast to coast broadcast of the crime on a radio show. Mrs. Kulinich, who Is serving a life term In the Detroit house of correction for second degree murder, claimed the drama invaded her "right of privacy" and would cause her "embarrassment, ridicule and humiliation." At first Circuit Judge Clifford A. Bishop granted the injunction but later dismissed It upon learning that the broadcast would originate in New York rather than In Flint and would use fictitious names of the principals. Mrs. Kulinich's husband, Peter; her daughter, Helen, 7, and her son, Nicholas, 5, were found dead In their farm home September 15, 1941. At first the woman said her husband killed the children and then committed suicide. Finally she confessed to state police that she was the slayer of all three. Slip of Knife Gives World Hew Eye Surgery Technique SAN FRANCISCO The slip ol knife has surgeons presented the world with a new technique of eye surgery that may save the sight of hundreds of persons In this country. The procedure was reported by Dr. Harold C. Scheie of Philadelphia. The new technique involves a tiny drain hole in the tough covering in the eyeball. Through this hole excess fluid in a little sac in front of the eye lens can escape and reduce the pressure that causes blindness in cases of glaucoma. In the usual operation an opening leading to the sac is made and some fluid taken out, but no drainage hole is left. A supposedly ordinary operation was performed on a 19 year old girl threatened with total blindness by glaucoma in both eyes. Scheie operated on the left eye. Later he discovered that the knife had left a tiny cleft which acted as a filter through which additional excess fluid from the little sac could continue to drain. The eye Improved and a similar operation was performed on the girls other eye. with similar results.

The congress power: In reminiscing about his first few years in the congress, Mr. Celler recalls that he was particularly interested in extending the financial reforms of Woodrow Wilson in the Federal Reserve Bank system; he stood for the League of Nations and believed that the late Senators Henry Cabot Lodge and William Borah did a "real disservice to the country" in opposing the league in those days.
