Florence E. Allen. Judge of the
supreme court of Ohio:
“Imwe are not enforced through
physical force only: they are also
enforced through public opinion.
The better part of law enforcement
is done through public conscience.
That is because real laws. which
have a moral basis are the expres-
sion of the moral feeling of the com-
munity. This moral feeling results
from many spiritual and educational
forces which are vitalincd by belief
in e depleted law. . .
“The same force of public opinion
can be built up among the nations.
It cannot be built up until the moral
law that was is illegal‘h expressed
in terms of law. The law must be
expressed. so that . the spiritual
“strength of the world. always much
’groater than we admit, may rally to
» its backing. War must be outlawed
in order that this spiritual force may
be released and vitallsed.”

Feb. 28.——The Palatineto. which]
Separatists are endeavoring to cro-
ete into an independent govern-
ment. is about enlarge inter-ea as.
Rhode Island and Delaware. com-
bined. and it has roughly about the

number a. little more than 800,000.

sition which would make an easy

der the territory especially desire-A
hie as a. butler state between France
and the German republic.
The Rhine divides the Palatineto
from Bavaria. to which it belongs.
Consenuenily it stands in an isolated
position. and at seldom visited by
outsiders because of the present up-
set condition . of transportation
through the Rhine area. There are
endless delays and pamport controls
as the rail lines pass into diiferent
sectors. and luggage is examined so
often that outsiders give the occu-
pied area a. wide berth. ’
. This state of affairs has made the
Palatinate an especially line field for
political adventulbrs. our years
ngo there was an abortive attempt
to create a republic. under the nus-
pices of the French forces. so the
)‘nlatinete residents assert, but it
failed.
The independent government
which Herr Heinz declared late last
year did better for a time. There
was so much confusion in Germany. .7
and Bavaria. was so occupied with
its Hitler and Ludcndori! troubles.
that little attention was paid to the
isolated Palatinate. But whcnthe
Bavarians turned the spotlight on
the Heinz government. and the Brit-
ish began to make public the el-
leged activities of the French oc-
cupation forces in support of Heinz
and his so~called autonomous gov-
ernment of Free Peasants. the alt-
uation was altered.
Then came the murder of Preslo
dent Heinz and several of his asso-
ciates by armed men. This act of
violence resulted in an inspection by
Consul General Clive. the British
representative at Munich, which has
taken the Paletinete Separatist
movement out of the twilight none

conditions are in this district.
To this move the French obJected.

ters building. immediately across
the street from the headquarters of
the so-called independent govern-
ment. is patrolled by red-teased no.
roccana. which make it doubly cer-
tain that no attack will be made by
the Palatinate population upon the
government which few residents of
the district support. .
The Separatist army is a strange
assortment of imported derelicts.
numbering in all probably not more
than zoo. but it is nacered by train-
ed soldiers and has abundant equip-
ment. The anti-Separatists say the
army was given all its arms and
equipment by the French. and is
paid and fed by the French mili-
tary coirnmand. ‘
Bins. children reflect the attitu
of the public to‘ard the Seplnti‘:
government. They gather in front
of the government building and make
faces at the guards. who angrily aput
the scofllng youngsters to flight.

Palatinate, which was routed by
the Separatists, or rather was ex-
polled by the French military. has
taken up its ofllcea temporarily in
