Growth in High School
Attendance Cited

The tremendous increase in high
school attendance in the last SO
years was attributed last night by
the Rev. DR.. George Johnson, head
of the Catholic University educa-
ton department, to the parental
conviction that additional school,
ing leads to better economic and
social status in later life.
Speaking in another of the series
of golden jubilee lectures arranged
for the university summer session,
Evening star., 1939-07-27

he cited the fact that in 1890 only
6 per cent Of American youth un-
der 18 was enrolled in high school.
whereas now the enrolment is IS
per cent. =
DR.. Johnson cited the argument
Of some people that too many young
people attend secondary schools. ]
They have no place to go, he said,
in view of the increasing difficulty
for youth under 20 to get jobs.
He predicted the unemployment
problem will continue as far as
youth is concerned, thus producing
society's obligation to continue to
provide secondary education. -.

to the large amount Of pending con-
struction work for the District and
Federal governments. Some firms
which desired to compete for the
housing projects, it was said, lacked
the opportunity to arrange their
bids in time.
The Ridge road project, to cost
about $l,000,000, is the first of seven
undertaken by the A. D. A. with
the financial assistance of the
United States Housing Authority.
Plans for the other projects are
being developed rapidly with pros
poets that bids will be advertised

Confidential Information
Available to Foreigners

But to get back to the Dies COM
mittee list of alleged communists,
or fellow travellers, within the gov
eminent itself. Those of us who
have been in constant contact with
individuals in various official capac-
tiles recognize the dangers that are
inherent in their situations. I, for
one, am genuinely fearful of them.
Any government worker comes into
possession of vast quantities of high
ly confidential information. It is in
formation that belongs to you and
to me and to others, because we
are compelled by law to supply to
the government all records and facts
which the government seeks.
It is not information that belongs
to any one government employee or
official and that person has no right
to use it or disclose it to others, ex-
cept as the laws require.
Z ! believe, therefore, it does not
take vivid imagination to see how
such information can be used de-
structively by one Of the rats who
secretly owes allegiance to the So
Wet or the Nazis or to the Fascists,
Of Italy. America long has pro-
ceeded upon faith. If that faith is
preached between individuals, our
laws and our courts are available
for correction, for damages, for en-
forcement of rights. But what,
ask, are any of us going to do when,
within the offices of the government
itself, there are concealed men and
women who descend below the level
of common thieves and secretly sup
ply facts about our nation to for
eigners whose purpose is to destroy
us? Who knows but that this sort
of thing goes on within our army
and our navy?

Operations Are Directed
From Moscow and Berlin

But how did the Russian "Comin-
term operate to get into these vari-
GUS organizations and promote it's
nefarious schemes toward world
revolution in a so-called intelligent
race of people here?
The processes, according to the
testimony by Browder and others
before the committee, were very
simple. The American Communist
party sends delegates to the Com
m1nist International in Moscow.
Decisions are made by the Moscow
group. Browder explained that the
delegates came back with these de-
cisions and policies but he described
them as only voluntary agree
ments" between the Americans and
Russians. The Americans were not
Compelled" to observe the Russian
made rules or follow Russian-made
orders, according to Browder. But
the head-communist in this country
was squeezed into corner by COM
mittee questions and finally ex-
planned that it was customary" for
American members Of the party to
part company" with the group
when they failed or refused to agree
with the imported schemes. And
thus voluntary action was forced &C.
ton, directed from Moscow, as far
as ] can understand words.
American "Fuehrer" Kuhn, of the
German-American bund, appears to
have had something of the same
system. He nevertheless insisted
before the committee that his or
ganization had no connection with
the Nazi party leaders and was not
guided in any way by them. This
statement was made despite testi-
mony, some from Kuhn, himself
that he had many close contacts in
Berlin and that he had made re-
cent visits to Adolph Hitler.
There has been considerable sus-
picion that both Browder and Kuhn
have many men and women in their
organization who can be described
only as racketeers. That is to say,
they have numerous workers" who
are fully aware of the general pur-
poses but who are willing to engage
in the movement" solely because
they have well-paying jobs within
the ranks-which, in my opinion,
rates them as completely dirty
crooks.
