EDITORIAL Anti-Huie War There is no question thnt the prcsent anti-Hult campaign now bo .. ing curried on by the g-0vcrnmcnt forces in Central Luzon ls one of the 111ost important and !undan1cnta.l problems confronting the nation. Our renders ~will no doubt understand fully our obscHslon with It. Fortunately, the lntest devclo1nnents in the campaign lt'n\·e no doubt as to where lie the sympathies o( the vast majority of our peopl~. Go in nmong the pc-opl~. in the 5trcets, in public busses, In social reunions, nnd you \~Ill find that. man~ or those, (most o! them mem. be_rs oC th~ common masses) ·who prior to tho proclamation of amnesty sympathized with Taruc and his cohorts and considered him o. martyr to n. noble cause and hailed with shouts or jO)· his return to Maniln for the amnc~ty negolia.tlons, are now the most outspoken and ,-itrlolic in their criticism and condemnation of Taruc and hiH link b:inds. To be sure, there still a.re n. few sympathizers or the Jtuk ,~nder. But th€"se more than anybocly else arc conscious of' the complete turnabout In the feelings of the J>eople "1th respect to the object or their sympathy. In o.n effort to turn the Ude once ngaln in favo1' ot tho quondam hero oC Urn Canclabf,t "S\\-:tmps, the-se Taruc sympathizers would bave us beUeve that Ta.rue was the poor and Innocent \•lctim or go\"''ernmental treachery. ThC'y hope- 'vith this line of argument (if the gra• tultous statements they throw carelessly about can be called JLrCU• ments) to stir up sympathy for the beleaguered Huk leader by la~·lng tho bl:ime tor the amnesty fl:isco at the <loor of th<' government. In our opinion, these Hui< sympalhbers nre wa!\tlng their breath and barking at the wrong tree. The people are not Interested In finding out who double-crossed \vhom-that Is, whether It was Taruc who failed the government, or whether it ..,-as tlle latter that failed the former. That question Jost currency about a. month a.go. Nor are the people Interested In knowing whether or not there were secret pacts and \\"hether these secret pacts were compll!'d with or not. The people see only ono thing: nnd that Is the eftort on the part of one man, helped by the armed might of a. few hundred d~pera.does, to Impose conditions. the great majority of them onerous and well· nigh Impossible of re:illzatlon, on our government and its duty elected or appointed oftlclals. The people Is wise. And no true thing has been said than that while you .. can fool some of the peoi,>Ie of the time, you cannot fool all of the people a.II of the time. The .people, the vast majority of them, certainly would Jl'ke to see certain reforms lntrodu<;ed In both o~r governmental and· socJal systems. Many acts of the p;~t administration do not count with the whole-hearted appi:obatlon of the great body of the people, But It· this Is true, It Is no less tru~ that people have, unll.ke .Ta.rue and his men, complete faltll In the· efficacy ·of co.nstltutlonal PJ"OCllll!'!'•· :And more, they ho.ve sufflcJent national pride In their aov,01.elgnty to resent any attempt or effort on the part of any one to lrnli!)"8 upon their duly elected or o.ppolnted '?metals ono1·ous conditions In !l):cb~ge tor peace and order.

To Catholics, anii. in· gencra.l, to all Christia.ns, a. portion of Dewey's acceptance speech last July .~hould prove food for thought. Jn_the long history of prcsicicntia.l aspirants, Thoma.'1 De·u:ey wa.~ the · finJt, u:ithin memory, to call upon a spiritua.l rejuvenation o; the pe6ple8 of the ·world to attain u·orld 71cace. This is the second oj a se1-ies of articles on cand.idl!fe.~ for United States Prc8ident. mu! the first o(ht•o articles on Thom.a~ Dewey.) 0 NE of the leading eontender11 for Republican nomination for President of the United States is Thomas E. De~·ey who was·Republican nominee in 1944 but lost when Franklin D. Roosevelt was elected to a fourth term as President. Dewey has held for six years an office ·which is considered one of the nation's highest state positions and which was a stepping-stone to the presidency itself ·for two Rocsevelts-that of the state of New York. Dewey is also fa~~d as a prosecutor who brought many public enemies to justice in the prewar period. At 46 Dewey i.s still h> to 20 years younger than most.. eanrlidates for the presidencr. · Ofti>n called the leader of the "forces of modernity within the ·Republican Party,'! he falls roughly in the middle between the extreme co11servative and the Liberal wing of the party in both foreign end do- - mestie policy. As titul.ir head of the Republican Pa1-ty and 'is C:oY· ernor of Nl-'W York Statt>. Dewey has ·had the opportunity, AS have few other Americans, · to iiscuss international problems with s•>rn<> of the nation's best oualifh'Cf experts and the world's leading statesman and diplomats.

He has not always been such an internationalist, however. Before the Japanese attar.k on Pearl Harbor. Hawaii -(on December 7, 1941), Dewey was inclined, to view that America's policy should be one ·of the strictest neutrality, though in·.1940 he urged immediate str\?llgthening 'of the tr. S. N·a''Y to make it able to defend hnth coasts. But in 1942, he said: Page 7 pressed by its necessity and announced his support of it. At a time when party politics threatened to interfere with the fullest prosecution of the. war, Dewey said: "A war in which America's ~·otmg men are fighting and dyiRg is not a politi..:al issue. There is something else that is not an issue--our full support of the Commander-in-Chief, the President of the United States." Speaking recently in Albany, capital of New York.State, Dewey proposed a four-point program to lessen the danger of war by strengthening the position of the United States: A large increase in air forces, rebuilt intelligence service, acceleraterl diplomatic efforts and a "realistic and hardboiled" program of aid to Europe and the Far East which would l!C· tnally serve "to rebuild and strengthen the nations whose freedom is so important to world peace."

It was five o'clock in the morning; a rooster perched on the bough of the santol tree in the yard flapped its wings vigorously and crowed and the sound it made filled the crisp chilly air. It would have been better if he went op the flight of hardwood stairs when her mother· asked him to . But he said, "My shoes are very dirty." They were not dirty, really. It is just that he found no desire to ·go up the house, to sit on the familiar chair by the big old clock and wait for her while she went to the batalan and splashed cold water on her face, comb her long black hair then come out snu1ing in the brightness of early dawn. On early mornings like this in the past, he had always waited for her to go down the solid flight of stairs and t}len, they'd be on their way to the market in the middle of the little town to Nana Binay's store. There, they bought bibinnka for breakfast. He pulled the old jacket closer to his narrow.shoulders in an effort to thwart the cold . From his dewy perch in the yard, with a big mellow moon entangled in the bou~ of the -santol tree behind him, he finally saw her -come down, with a basket slung on her arm. - · He went up to her. She smiled at him softly, almost meekly. He didn't say a word. .. I didn't see you the whole day yesterday," she said. "I was reading," he said, "We have examtr.atfons- when I glJ back." "All day I was expecting you," she said. "Mother was expecting you, too.'' · "l reaJly stayed home," he said. "You never went out?'' "No." She didn't ·want to ask a question anymore. They were now well on their way to town ~ and the railroad tracks where they walked was a strin of broWn ribbon in the moonlight; the air was clean and cool and even in the dimness was a certain subtlety and kindness; one, that didn't have to be probed into and on they walked~ looking straight at the tracks bl'fore them till they neared the edge of the town. The houses were small and they stood gauntly on thin bamboo stilts; the road that levelled out of the tracks was crooked and dusty and filled with craters. There were but a few people in the market in the dawn; thc)rntchers who talked gruffly and were stained with blood, the slrcetcleaners who were sweeping the street and kindling the rubbish. II Nana Binay's slore was R small affair that jutted out of the market building and they headed to It at once. Nana Binay was very good to them; she knew they were tired after the walk and she always gave them each a cup of steaming salabat. · Nana Binay grinned affably when she recognized them by the dim light of her kerosene lamp. "Wrap ten cakes for me, Nana", she said. '"You are not g<>ing. to eat some here?" ·the old woman asked. "No, Nana," she said. '"We ·are hurrying back. I have plenty of work to do today." "'Ah yes, I remember," the old store-keeper shook a thin finger at her. "You have finished yom· dress by now, perhaps. It must be very beautiful. Will it be on Sunday~" "Yes, Nana," she murmured almost inaudibly. While the old woman busied herself wrapping the cakes in banana leaves wilted in the fire, he just stood there, kicked at the pebbles and said nothing. "Of course, I am coming, even if you aren't askini? me to come," the old woman said S?aily. Blood rose to her cheeks. "Of course, you are invited, Nana," she stammered hurriedlv. The old woman handed her the . By A. K. A. TlDAlJ! cakes then tur·ned to him. "And how long is your vacation going to last?" she asked. "Till tomorrow, Nana" he said. "You can extend it for one mo1·e week," the old woman suggested. "We arc going to have examinnt.ions soon, Nana," he said. "I don't think I can do that." "You cannot'miss It," the old woman· insisted. "Yo\1 just cannot." He didn't answer. In a moment more. the old woman handed to her the rice cakes and she put them deftly into her basket. The crowing of the cocks had grown more sonorous. Then. they both turned; he took the basket from her after a little ar·guing and carried it. III On thei1· wa~· back, when they were already on the railroacl tracks, she chided him: "~·lll shouldn't have toid N:rna Bina·." :i hout your not staying."

And on its broad back, the trees and the sullen light that was breaking, flsving out Into many fragments all over the land. "Fine morning," he said. "And cold," she added with a hollow little laugh. He looked down at her and found her looking up to him. Where they were on the elevated railroad tracks, behind them was the town's broad outline with the twin spires of the church prominently etched. The morning wind as it sang, .blew her hair into his face and he could smell its cool feminine fragrance. "It will be on Sunday," he said. "Three more days from now. I wish I could gi'V'e you something." "You don't have to," she said. "You must v.se your money for your studies. " . "Ah, my studies," he said. Then with a smile, he added, "I'll· come back someday and I will bring ~·ou a city girl fQr a maid. She will have t·ed che!lk11 and red lips ....

To achieve this purpose, he has ' even gone a novel step further by making the reader feel at ease in acquaintance with them. A theoretical knowledge about the angels is necessary but it could be bstter if the discussion would be do,rn-to-earth in the sense that t.he reader develops a belief in the angels which weave themseh·es into the ''ery fiber of our being and become part of our diurnal life. This seems .to be the main purpose of Father McAstocker, to hold this belief clearly before us so that we can nomish a tender and ab1dinir devotion toward the angels. Jn a stvle that is lucid and familiar, Fa th er McAstocker points out the fact that angels are the official guardians · of hnman beings. He gives .;~e­ <'ific examples of their solicitude. Here. he also discourses on the Triumvirate of ArchangelsMiehael the strengthener of our wills and protector of the dyinl?: Ranhael, the healer and friend of pJJre souls; and Gahriel. th.e consoler and assistant of snirltual fortitude.

Two factors jeopardize the skull cavities near tll.e nose and eyes which normally prewarm inhaled air and !rive resonauce to the human voice. Bacteria find the mucous manbrane there .a fertile nesting place. \Vorse still, influenza, measles, scarlet fever, and pneumonia germs may locate there. Inflammation. s'velling of the membrane, discharge of thick fluid, accompanied by headaches, general fatigue and nervous iri,itability are common sinusitis symPtoms. Drugs have been used by the score with effects· mostly restricted to reducinl!' swelling and oroviding relief. The mist cure, however, seems .the first one to benefit most cases. Penicillin mist is reported to have had succe&1 in 70 percent of even the most · serious chronic cases. The mist method is actu~llly a by-Drodnct of attempts to attack with Denicillin bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis, arid lunl!' ab~cesses. It has been simplified to the extent that the apparatus needed can be used at home. Actuallv, the sinus cavity is emptied of air with a simple hand-pumD, and the vacuum so created sucks in nenicillin suspended in air. To be effective the treatment m.ust be taken two or three times daily. espedally in severe eases. usualy over a period of two weeks or more. Penicillin dosage must be prescribed, the nasal discharge must be analyz4!!d. Sometimes streDtomycin niist is. necessart, and in an aJlergy. against penicillin the doctor· must change the peniciUin strain. In other words, the spray treatment is not one fo1· self-cure, nor effective in true sinus aJlergies to pollen and other substances. However, in the majority of cases penicillin mist cleared the sinus and thus ranoV'ecl the bothersome and sometimes"::serioJJs effect of sinusitis. The~:mist method was W()rked out bY,g'>r. Alvan L.

A1,thor, "My Catholic Faith" "And when the days of the Pentecost iue·re acco1nplished, they we-re nil together in one place. And suddenly there came a sound from heaven, as of a mighty wind coming; and it filled the 1i;hole house where they were sitting. And there appeared to the-m parted tongues as it were of fire; and it sat upon ei·ery one of them. And they were aU filled with the Holy Ghost; and they be.qan to speak with divers tongues, according as the Holy Ghost r1cive them to speak" (Acts 2:1-4). Who is the Holy Ghost?-The Holy Ghost is God and the Third Person .of tbe Blessed Trinity. 1.. Our . Lord Himself often spoke of the Holy Ghost. One of the most solemn occasions was when He charged the Apostles: "Going therefore teach ye all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost." 2; On · certain occasions, the · !J:_oly Ghost has appeared in vis1tile . form. When Christ was baptized by John the Baptist, the lfoly Ghost appeared in the form of a. dov~. · On Pentecost after Christ's Ascension, the Holy Ghost descended with a mighty rushing -wind, -and rested over the Apostles in the form of tongues of fire. These signs are symbolic of the_ action of the Holy Ghost From whom does the Holy GJiost proceed?-The Holy Ghost proceeds from the Father and · the -Son. · This does not mean that the Holy Ghost began to exist later in time than the Father and the Son. He proceeded from them all eternity. He is to them as warmth is to fire, existing and proceeding at the same· time. There can be no fire without warmth; if there . were an eternal fire, there would be an eternal warmth. So. since there are the eternal Father and Son, there is the eternal Holy Ghost. The Holy Ghost is the eternal mutual love that the Father and Son bear each other; but instead of being a mere feeling, the Holy Ghost is a Person, a Being, God Himself. Is the Holy Ghost equal to the Fathe1· and the Son?-The Holy Ghost is equal to the Father and tile Son, because- He is God. True God as the Father and tile Son are, the ~lo!~ Ghost is eternal, all-knowing, ahpighty. The Third 'Person is called Holy Spirit, from the Latin word spiri• Page 13 tus, a breath. He was breathed forth by the Father ancl the Son. Other names used to refer to the Holy Ghost are: Paraclete, Consoler, Comforter, Substantial Love, Gift, etc. What does the Holy Ghost do fo1· the salvation of mankind? - The Holy Ghost sanctifies souls through the gift of grace ancl dwells in the Church ~s the source of its life. l.

When did the Holy Ghost begin to dwell in !he Church?-The Holy Ghost began to dwell in the Church on Pentecost Sunday, when He came down upon the l' Apostles in the fol'm of tongues of fire. l . .Jesus had p1·omised to s1'ncl the Holy Ghost to the Apostles. He said at the Last Supper: "It !s expedient to .vou that I go, for 1f I go not, thr Pal'aclete will not come to you, bnt if r go I will send Him to you" (John 16:7). On Pentecost, tron clays after the Ascension, ·the Holy Ghost descended on the Apostles and 1lisciples. After the Ascension of Our Lord, the Apostles together with the Blessed Virgin and disciples, men and women, numbering ab·~ut 120 persons, gathered in an upper room in Jerusalem, where they spent the time in prayer, waiting for the. fulfillment of Christ's promise (Acts l :14). "Stay you in the city, till you be endued with power from ori high" (Lulfo 24 :49) . 2. Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended upon the 1isciples, was the day of formal foundation of the Church. On that day three thousand members were baptized after the preaching of St. Peter. Many· believed, because the Apostles had the "gift of tongues" ; that is, they spoke in one language, but those of different races who listened heard what was said in the.tr pwn different languages. 3.

The mass meeting of Italy's most powerful youth organization reassures other Christian nations of the woTld that while Commun· ism there is still alive and active among the older people, it has not any grip on the young and still less on the very younir.

In the back .. ground: Mrs.. Aurora Quezon, Judge Natividad Almeda L:opez and Senator Geronima Pecson look passively on. Very noticeable during the oath taking was the absence of Senate President Jose Avelino.

There was the cancerous case of peace and order in Centra1--Luzon 1that was •preading with alarming fer-.ociousness and that of "restoring the confidence of the -pie in ·the Govemment" long ·reeling under the impact of graft, corrupt !officialdom and political bickerin111. !First came the applauded amnesty grant to the Hules, Despite Its apparent Callure, It can be said that with Its Intrepid daring, th& government had achle\'ed a moral victory. · 'l'ha holy cows of the go,·ernment were In for the next Quirino dose and many a big Pollt!Cian did sit uneasily when the cabinet revamp started.
