It seems to me that mother who has filed a complaint against the teacher for the alleged attack on her son, would take time to examine her son's actions, and concede the fallacy. of her stand. She has nothing to complain about. The courts have said the teacher had the right to put the trespassers out of the school, and if the teacher caught the youngster alone and gave him a beating, more power to him.

General Douglas MacArthurwho sat as a major general on General Mitchell's case and voted "not. guilty"--,-warecalled from his Korea by Presiin commander as position dent Truman for trying to set rather than follow military policy. And currently, national attention is being focused on the court martial trial of the Army's missile expert, Colonel John Nickerson. Colonel Nickerson's court martial, set for June, is in connection with the row over a document he wrote and gave to unauthorized persons. It criticizes the Pentagon's decision and declares that a U.S. victory in a future war will be jeopardized by the directive of Deense Seeretary Charles E. Wilsonwhich gives the Air Force full control over and use of the intermediate ballistic missile. His trial will throw the test of public opinion on Secretary Wilson's policy decision. Colonel Nickerson's case, as with General Mitchell's court martial and General MacArthur's release from his command, comes to solid grips with the same issue. Does the professional soldier have the right to criticize publicly the decisions of his civilian superiors? Certainly there must be discipline. Cers tainly the military must carry out the that are set. But certainly, too, the nation will be in greater danger on the day that we no longer have military men who are willing to risk discipline to speak up for what they are convinced is right. r. 1. --...-.... - the seeded facilities.

When the United States entered World War II in 1941, General Mitchell's old predictions about the future of the Air Force swept the country with the force of a discovery of science. In 1945, the U.S. Senate voted to grant posthumously to Central Mitchell the Congressional Medal of Honor, and promoted him to the rank of major general. Congress also passed a resolution condemning the action of the court martial and removing its sentence from' his record. Still, the current review of the case can be important infocusing attention on a funhow much a profesdamental problem sional military man should have to say about setting national military policy. From the earliest days of the nation, it that has been America's tary policy should be set by the leaders of the nation.

As he said, some 900 private utilities have had the same kind of treatment: And as he pointed out, two big aluminum plants ,alone in the Northwest have been given combined tax write-off and federal powe r, rate subsidies amounting to more than $500 million. Even so, the Idaho Power case is be- poll. coming a symbol of the fast write-of- f cy, and for good reason. Under the program, the Office of De- fense Mobilization can allow a company to its construction costs over a five- of a instead period.
