PillDAY, MARCH 14, 1941 Atong the Line I byJ^S, I ■Col. A. Edward Krieger, lifelong resident of Salamanca, has devoted much of his valuable time to the study of m ilitary tactics and military affairs. As a youth he studied and drilled at Chamberlain M ilitary In stitute. A t Cornell University where he studied law, he continued his in terest in m ilitary affairs. He was a member of the Reserve O fficers’ Training Corps and since his gradua tion from Cornell has spent many summers at various training camps throughout the country. In the mean tim e he established a .lucrative law practice in this city and was chosen to succeed the late A. M. Laidlaw as D istrict Attorney of Cattaraugus County. He has been reelected to th a t position, every th r e e years since 1926 and each time has shown an increased m ajority when election day came around. That is a true indication of the opinion the voters had reg’arding his conduct of the district attorneyship. On came the w ar and Col. Krieger received no tice to present himself tomorrow at tile First Army Headquarters, Gov ernor’s Island, for active duty for one year. The office of District At torney is an im portant one. Many a, man in Col. Krieger’s position would nave asked for a deferm ent; not so, however, with Ed Krieger. He is not that kind of man and citizen. He cheerfully answered the call and to morrow reports for active duty. In this he has exhibited the same high character and application to his duties and responsibilities th a t he lias shown throughout his entire life time. As evidence of their respect and regard for Col. Krieger, friends in \Salamanca and throughout the county Tuesday evening gave him a testimonial dinner at the Hotel Dudley in this city which must have warmed the cockles of his heart. It was a tribute to a m an who has al ways done his duty and who has thoroughly indicated his intention to continue th a t program. The hosts of friends of Col. Krieger wisli him Godspeed knowing th a t he will acquit himself ’(^th honor and distinction but at the same time hoping that the emergency will soon be over and th a t he will then return to the eom-‘ munity that has brought him so many friends and so many honors. Not many yaars ago, the Ameri can people paid very little a t te n tion to events outside their own ter ritory. I t was custom a ry' even for big new spapers to p r in t Only limit ed reports of foreign nsws. Great events in Europe or Asia might be given only an inch or two of space on some back page. “W hat have we to do with abroad?” was a common expression of opinion. Then the world was turned upside down. Some fanatic fired a pistol a t the heir to the throne in a little ' Balkan kingdom, and the old world was torn up by war. In less than thrjse years the United States was in th e war with both feet. Our people began to realize that they were very closely affected by these distant events. Today any newspaper that attem pts to cover the news 'Of the whole country has to tell all about the awful tragedies o f Europe, and in the larger papers th e w ar news is the principal center o f interest. How f a r this means that the Unit ed States has to take part in these world doings is a question under dispute. B u t it at least means that th e Amerixjan people have to watch these w>orld events very closely. The things they do in Britain and. Ger m any and Turkey today may tu rn everything upside down right here in New York State tomorrow. F o r the moment the situation in Europe, with these powers clutching a t the\ throats of their foes, seems alm o st hopeless. The American peo p le ask w h at they can do about it. One thing they can do, and that is to prepare arm am ent equal to th a t of any power. Then these fighting na tions will listen, to our voice w ith wvae respect. I t is for the interest o f the United ‘States, so far as it can, to help the nations which are tr 3 ?ing to keep free government from perishing from the earth, as Abra ham Lincoln would put it if he were with us today. Dr. Vincent Pedell last Saturday opened a beautifully and modemly equipped offices in this city for the practice of chiropractic. This equip ment, of course, includes x-ray ma chines. In order to try out one of the new x-ray machines, he took a pic ture of his f ather Anthony Fedell, proprietor of the Palace ‘Restaurant and alderman representing the sec ond ward of the city of Salamanca. When the negative was developed it was discovered that Alderman Fedell possessed one more vertebra than is usual. We always thought Alderman Fedell had more than av erage backbone and now his son and his x-ray machine come along and prove it. The idea of government control over business is nothing new. Some time it does n o t seem to m a k e a?ay g r e a t progress. An O riental ex p e rt a t th e University of ChiChgO fiUdS th a t back in Babylonia about 4000 years ago, they were fixing commod ity prices, and regulating w ages and interest. Business should be regulated, but sometimes, the regulating does more harm than good, just as the man who takes the wrong medicine may b© sicker than before. Business should not be regulated so severely that people prefer to play golf rath er than take the chances of doing •business.
