EDITORIAL
The Circus Is Serious Business
Small and largo circuses roam our country, bringing
.delight and excitement to our towns and cities But occa-
sionally something tragic happens, which brings home the
.duel that wild animal and tent shows are not all tun and
,’frolic, but a major responsibility ol citizens wherever such
performances are held
Such was the case with Kmgling Brothers and Bat-
num & Bailey fire in Hartford which caused a stampede
.killing 107 persons and injuring 412. Now has come the
poignant reminder again with the death last week of a nine-
year-old girl, killed by a supposedly “tame” lion of the Cam-
pa Brothers circus. An overturned truck of the same circus
•loosed dangerous animals on the Arkansas countryside, and
,tome of their animals are still at large.
Thoughtful adults are again and again alarmed by the
.carefree attitude of animal custodians at circuses and car-
nivals, Along with fire regulations rigidly enforced for tent
shows, police regulations should be just as strict to enforce
responsible supervision of animals and protection for all on
circus grouhds and parade lines. The Campas are a happy
■family of circus folk with numerous children in the acts.
It is sad that they have had such dreadful misfortunes But
wthcir “had breaks” emphasize that circuses are serious busi-
•iV-'ss; child performers and happy-go-lucky animal supervi-
sion in tent performances are a dangerous combination.

Mining War Secrets For Defense
Since the furore over the executive order establishing |
censorship in the civ ilian departments of the government. ]
*and perhaps self defense, the adjutant general has reveal-j
• ed that a group in his department has been at work for five i
■years weighing military secrets that can now' be revealed
»and making them public.
I The classified documents—restricted, confidential, secret
jand top secret—would amount to about 12 miles. The labors
*of five years have resulted in passing on just one mile of
Jthem. But it has already given industry, the military serv-
ice and others a wealth of material, v/nich it is thought
.will not now be helpful to Russia or anv other potential

•combat reports that describe supply and logistics problems

• It is hard for the laymen to believe that any such in-

decides to stop being as much of a valley as it was.
The Po Valley, 420 miles long, in Italy, has created
considerable scientific excitement by rising along its entire
length to a height of one foot above its normal level, within
a period of 16 days. We are not accustomed to seeing nature
at work so efficiently, for she generally accomplishes changes
in the earth’s surface by earthquakes, volcanoes, tidal waves
or other cataclysms, or else she takes millions of years to
do some sculpturing on a piece ol our globe.
The normal geologic explanation would probably he*that
the shifting and adjusting of massive weights of earth—in
this case enough detritus at the Po’s mouth to form moun-
tains in the Adriatic sea—could cause a teeter-totter move-
ment along the Po riverbed, the valley becoming “high man
on the totem pole." It is more romantic to think, however,
that the queenly Alps, where the Po rises at an elevation
of 6.000 feet, gently sighed and the long flowing tresses of
the Po were lifted, valley, bed and river, with the move-
ment of her snowy shoulders.
