"A Heritage Unsurpassed In Our History
Such was the significance of the administration of Abraham [
Lincoln ns well ns such was the quality of the man that new
effects, new consequences, new issues , und now combinations
of effects, consequences, anil issues of his nets and decisions
and those of bis administration are constantl y claiming attention.
Hon . Sty les Bridges, senator from New Hampshire, HAS
published in the Congressional Record of January V.\ an essay
written by J. Duane Squires, professor nt Colby Junior College,
New London, New Hampshire, in the Department of Social
Studies, und which was published in the Abraham Lincoln
Quarterl y for December , 11)48.
The essay is entitled, "Some Enduring Achievements of the
Lincoln Administration, 1881-65." The essay is of considerable
length find is well worth ,1 careful reading. To review it briefly
is not easy, us important und interesting are all the detailed
examples given. Because of its length, a republishing of it in
the Patriot is out of the question, much us we should like to
do so for the benefit of our readers.
"Viewing the Lincoln administration in retrospect, many able
scholars have emphasized its accomplishment us chiefly that of wag-
ing a tremendous civil conflict to a victorious conclusion. That the
total ilefeat of the Confederacy was a vital aspec t of Lincoln 's
leadership between 1S61-C5 there is no doubt whatsoever. That the
preservation of. the Union was an achievement without which
nothing else would have much mattered is not to be 'gainsaid , and
yet, there is another aspect of the Lincoln administration which
has not always been adequately stressed by students ot the Civil
War period. President Lincoln and his colleagues Instituted an
extraordinary number of innovations, many of them only tangential
to belligerent activities, which have effected enduring changes In
American life."
The writer continues by saying that it is not possible to
separate President Lincoln 's from his administration members
authorsh ip of the several innovations and projects. Those which
did not originate with Mr. Lincoln himself had his endorsement
m- support in various ways.
It was in 1863 that Pros. Lincoln by proclamation set aside
the lust .Thursday in November as a national clay of Thanks-
giving. Thus started the practice of presidential designation of
this date: and how much it has become part of our tradition is
evidenced in the dissatisfaction expressed generally when Pres.
Roosevelt sought to change it—the old date bad to be restored.
In 18111 the Army Signal Corps was established and the
original experiments in military aeronautics were begun. The '
Congressional Medal of Honor as a national award for valor
was created in 18b'2 by an Act of Congress. It is to certain in-
novations begun during the anguished years of the Civil War
that we owe our contemporary military medicine, surgery, nurs-
ing, and hospitalization. Pres. Lincoln appointed the first super-
intendent of United States Army women nurses. Entering this
branch of the service before the end of the Civil War were
2000 women. The work led three dectides later to the formal
establishment of the Army Nurse Corps.

In our Issue of January 27, a pic-
ture was published on the front
liage ot a Kiwunis Banner Presen-
tation. The usual credit line was
omitted, which should have been
placed under the picture to reail ,
"Photo by Miller."
A Credit Omission
Conunuid from Pagi M
ued service is found with respect
to the people getting to and from
Boston to their work.
"We are making our announce-
ment (u advance of deliberations of
the Legislature in an effort to pro-
vide that body with a realistic
foundation tor Its efforts to pre-
clude complete abandonment of pas-
senger service on the OUl Colony
lines and so that negotiations can
be conducted on a plane of frank-
ness and realism."
The New Haven 's President said
that the trains which the New
Haven will continue to operate in
the former Old Colony area "will
still entail substantial losses.".
He said that these trains "will
continue to operute pending deci-
sions of the General Court of the
Commonwealth on the purchase of
the South Station property as rec-
ommended by the Special Commis-
sion. If this purchase is accom-
plished they will continue to oper-
ate thereafter as long as thoy show
prospects ot meeting out-of-pocket
costs."
"The simple fact Is that people
have been and still are abandoning
use of the passenger trains in the
former Old Colony area for other
forms of transportation which are
more convenient for their personal
use and desires, except , perhaps ,
on days when the weather Is in-
clement and other forms of trans-
portation cannot be operated so
conveniently."
The railroad says that (be trav-
eling and shipping public must use
the railroads as a sunshade as well
as for an umbrella for transporta-
tion problems.
President Whittemore said that
the changes In passenger service on
March 1 will not affect freight op-
eration on the former Old Colony.
On the Woods Hole Branch , buses
are to bo substituted for train serv-
ice.
This change will make tbe time
table look like this: a train will
leave Boston dally at 7:55 a.m. and
daily (except Sunday) at 5.10 p.m.
for Hyannis; and will leave Hyan-
nis dally, except Sunday, at 7:05
a.m. and at 4:50 p.m., and Sunduy
only at 6:00 p.m. for Boston.

tees are a few that touch Cape
Cod closely.

servation , Transportation , Taxation

ruary Hi before the Committee on
Conservation on a bill introduced
i by Sen. Stone for ulr spraying for
the gypsy moth on a state-wide ba-
sis. The gypsy moth is no respecter
of city and town boundaries , hence
a stute-wlde spraying Is most effec-
tive for extermination purposes.
sen. stone expects at this hear-
ing to introduce a iiermisBlve bill
which would enable towns to pool
their resources in dealing with the
gypsy moth. He Is also working
with the United States Department

Richard Aldrich , Cape Playhouse
producer , is to start another play-
house in Falmouth , taking over
the Coonamessett Club. By com-
bining the management operations
at Dennis and Falmouth , certain
economies can be effected and ar-
tistic opportunities gained. Join-
ing him in this enterprise is Rob-
ert Crane, brother of Charles Crane
l.ratherbee, who brought In 192S
the first summer play season to
Falmouth .
The official announcement, as is-
sued in New York , follows: "Rich-
ard Aldrich of Dennis and New
York and Robert Crane of Woods
Hole announced today that nego-
tiations are about to be concluded
for a long term lease to Mr. Aldrich
Cor the Coonamessett Club anil ad-
joining cottages at Hatchvllle. The
club will be remodeled into a first
|class, 050 seat, summer theatre, to
I be known as the Falmouth Play-
house at Coonamessett-on-Cape
Cod.
"The playhouse will be operated
by a board of directors 'headed by
Mv. Aldrich and Mr. Crane, together
with four prominent Falmouth res-
idents. Mr. Aldrich plans to open
the llrst 10-week season the week
of June 26, 1949. The policy will be
to book only outstanding stars ot
stage und screen In the latest
Broadway successes or important
classical revivals; a policy which
the Cupe Playhouse at Dennis has
followed for many yeurs under
Mr. Aldrlch' s management ' with
continued success. Tickets will
range in price from $1.50 to $8,00,
plus tax, and subscribers for the
season will have their choice of
the best seats."

Richard Jarvls ot BuMwds Bav
started on his planned cross coun
try to Pittsburgh, Pa., this week
but was forced down In Charlegl
town, R. I., because of weather Af
ter sitting it out all day he left
after the cold front went by and
followed It home to Cape Cod
He wasn't too uleased at the aspect
of having to come back, and the
Navy at the field gave him a hard
time, so the trip in general was a
failure. He plans to try again
though , as soon as the forecaster
gives him two good days In a row
Charlie Fuller, Maintenance
Man, has his nose to the grind-
stone, and worked all night one
night to finish up a Job promised
for the morning. After going home
at 5 a.m. he was at the field at 8
o'clock to start another day.
The familiar Twin Cessna has
come home from Provlncetown
where it has been based for the
past several months. It will prob-
ably remain here until spring, am)
then be on Its way again for the
Provlncetown-to-Boston run.
Flight Instructor Ray Pender-
gast piloted the Sttnson IBO to
Nantucket during the week with
Mr. C. W. Rlva and his guest Mr.
Moran as passengers. Although the
weather was foggy, the trip was
routine. With all the rain, snow ,
and thawing periods, the field is
becoming just a bit on the muddy
side. The fact that there Isn't much
! frost in the ground is letting the
water settle, and the Held shouldn't
I be too soft with the arrival of sun-
ny days.
Bud Lapbam of Marstons Mills
had another hour of night flying
In the Cessna 140 with Instructor
Ray Pendergast. It was an ideal
night, with the moon nearly as
bright as daylight and excellent
visibility.
