EDITORIALS RACE QUESTION INJECTS SELF INTO OLYMPICS The man who said; that international athletic competition tends to create friendship and harmony among the nations must have been entirely ignorant of the things that happen at the Olympic Games. Judging them strictly on form, these games would seem to be about as fertile a source of inter. national dislike as anything that man's inventive brain has yet devised.

If the jars which they create weren't so funny, all hands would presently be landing their marines and taking strong measures. The all-time high water mark seems to have been reached in Berlin. Herr Hitler, flanked by his official muscle men, beams down from his box, prepared to extend the right hand of good fellowship to the right away the show is stolen by a young American colored boy named Jesse Owens, ably seconded by other American colored boys named Metcalfe, Woodruff, Johnson, Albritton, Williams, LaValle and Robinson. At this point high comedy enters. Herr Hitler owes his career to the thesis that blond Nordics are, ipso facto, superior to all other breeds.

But he hardly gets his chair warm before it is clearly proved that there isn't a blond Nordic on earth who can give the completely non-Nordic Mr. Owens a real race. Thus Jesse Owens puts the dic- tator of Germany on the spot. The dictator departs hastily, the world treats itself to a chuckle at his expense, and the most sensational athlete of the Olympics turns out to be the very one who can't receive the personal congratulations of Der Fuehrer. Yes, it is all pretty ridiculous.

But we Americans might do a little bit of thinking before we laugh too lustily. After all, we are hardly in the best of all possible positions for pointing the finger of scorn at anyone who gives way to race prejudice. The race problem is a knotty one, and it probably will have to work itself out over many generations. Getting sentimental over the athletic prowess of Jesse Owens isn't going to show us how white and black men can live in eternal amity. But it might at least remind us that the problem is there' to be solved.

And we'll be in a better mood to try to solve it if we give our whole-hearted acclaim to the young Negroes who put the Stars and Stripes at the top of the Olympic flagpole. A son of Mr. Kelly who lives four miles north of town swallowed a pin a few days ago, and the irritation produced thereby, in the judgment of the attending physician, may throw.him into typhoid fever.

Heavy Rains Blamed For Death Of Many Fish In Iowa Rivers Des Moines health department officials said today the death of thousands of fish in the Des Moines river below Des Moines this week was probably due to Tuesday night rains. William Mark, assistant sanitapy engineer for the health department, along with other department officials and state conservation commission representatives, surveyed the affected area. They stated the rain caused a sharp river rise which apparently swept downstream sludge and sewage previously stagnated. The sludge drove the fish into small bayous where they soon exhausted all oxygen and suffocated, the experts said.

FIFTEEN hundred years ago, the Byzantine Emperor, Theodosius II, built a series of walls before Constantinople, now Istanbul, that withstood severe attacks upon the city throughout the centuries.

For a distance of four miles, from the Golden Horn to the Sea of Marmora, three lines of heavy ma Sonry were built. The first wall was a mere breastwork. The second wall rose 25 feet, and the third wall towered over the second by 15 feet. The three lines of defense were impregnable to attack by medieval means. But, in the 15th century, came the Turks.

When Mohammed II attacked Constantinople, his guns ripped breaches in the thick walls faster than the Greeks could repair them. Still, the Turks could have been held back, but, by an unusual strategy, the invaders moved their navy around to the north of the city and before a ed. on- 1 slaught. A picture of part of this wall; is shown on one of the stamps Turkey issued, in 1913. Copyright.
