MORE ABOUT
TRUMAN'S SPEECH
FROM PAGE FIVE

mation-the right of the people to
know-as among the most impor-
tant OF those human rights and
fundamental freedoms to which
we are pledged under the United
Nations Charter.
The United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organi-
cation, which is meeting in No
vember, is a recognition of this
fact. That organization is built
upon the premise that since wars
begin in the minds OF men, the
defense Of peace must be con-
structed in the minds of men, and
that a free exchange of ideas and
knowledge among peoples is nee
essary to this task. The United
States therefore attaches great
Importance to all activities de-
signed to break Gown barriers to
mutual u n d e r standing and to
wider tolerance.
The United States will support
the United Nations with all the re-
sources that we possess.
The use of force or the threat
OF force anywhere in the world to
break the peace is of direct con-
Germ to the American people.
The course of history has made
us one of the stronger nations Of
the world. 1t mas therefore placed
upon us special responsibilities to
conserve our strength and to use
i. rightly in a world so lnterde-
pendent as our world today.
The American people recognize
these special responsibilities. We
shall do our best to meet them,
both in the making of the peace
settlements and in the fultillment
Of the long : range tasks OF the
United Nations.
The American people look upon
the United Nations not as a tenn
porary expedient but as a perma-
nent partnership a partnership
among the peoples of the world
for their common peace and COM
mon well-being.
1t must be the determined pur-
pose of all of us to e that the
United Nations lives and grows in
the minds and the hearts OF all
peoples.
May Almighty God, in His inf
mite wisdom and mercy, guide US
and sustain us as we seek to bring
back peace everlasting to the world
With His help We shall succeed.

BETHUNE GOODMAN
PRESIDENT QUITS TO
JOIN HAMPTON STAFF

HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va,
June 10 (ANP)-Resignation of
James A. Colston as president of
Bethune Goodman college to accept
the post of director of public rela-
tions for Hampton institute was
announced by President Ralph
Bidgman.
Although Mr.. Colston had been
president of Bethune Goodman for
four years, it was understood from
sources close to the Florida school
that his relationship with the
founder and president emeritus,
Mrs. Mary Mcleod Bethune, was
not too happy. 1t is believed his
resignation followed the result of
disagreement over conduct of
Bethune Goodman affairs.
Speaking of the appointment,
President Bridgman said:
Hampton is securing the serv-
ices of an able administrator, who,
with Bethune-Cookman college and
the United Negro College fund,
has made an outstanding success in
public relations work, including
campaigning for funds. He prom
ises to be a valuable member Of the
team which is being assembled to
implement the newer objectives of
Hampton institute.
Mr.. Colston's career as an edu-
Gator began when he graduated
from Morehouse college in 1882,
where for year he was all instruc-
tor in the E. P. Johnson school. He
was principal Of the Rigby Junior
High School in Oromond, Fla,
from 1888 to 1898, and director of
the Ballard school, private acad-
emy sponsored by the American
Missionary association in Macon,

ALLEN NOW GOING BACK TO OLD ROLE
 AFTER RESIGNATION

WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.-George E. Aliens resignation as an REC director cleared the way today for his return to the unofficial role of Presidential spadeworker" and key corisultant.
 This was the view expressed by men in close contact with the President as well as by friends of the big, jovial former insurance man.
 These sources attributed the resig- nation to-
 l. Financial considerations. They said Allen could have earned S80,000 in l946 through corporate connections if he had not taken the sl0,o00 government job. As it was, they said, he drew only S10,000 from series of private director ships.
 2. A desire to stay out of con- troversies such as his differences with former Housing Administrator Wilson Wyatt over REC loans for manufacturers of prefabricated housing. Allen. they said, feels that fights which keep him in the limelight hamper his usefulness to the President in the political field:

De GaulIe Is Noi(andidate
 For President
(BY THE ASSOCIATED pREss)

General Charles De Gaulle de- nounced the French government in bitter terms today and served TO- tice that he will net run for Pres ident.
 A French President is to bs elect ed by the legislature on January l6, and there has been some spec ulation that De Gaulle, wartime leader of French resistance forces might come out of political retire ment and be candidate.
 But now De Gaulle says that he wants no part of the present French rsgime. Says he: T do not believe that it would be well for me to serve tt< country by pretending to becolhe the guarantor of a con- stitution which consecrates that regime and to preside, with im- potence, over the impotence of the state"
 At the moment, there is only one man in France who has openly an- rounced his intention Of seeking the Presidency. He is Vincent Auriol, veteran Socialist leader. Oth- CT possible candidates might include Socialist Leon Blum, who now is serving es President and Premier of an interim government, and former Premier George Bidault leader of the Popular Republican movement.

iND0CHiNA BATTLING IS
 SPREADING
France Must Use Guns and Planes fo Keep Her
 Colonial Empire

PARIS, Dec. 28-Insurrection in Indochina, now reported as hav- ing spread to the south, has forced France to realize she must use guns and planes in addition to di- plomacy to keep her rich, 400-year- old colonial empire from falling apart.
 Though a permanent government under the new Fourth Republic is not yet complete, this country al- ready has had to bring into play the sterner aspect of a two-edged policy loosen the bonds to hold colonials impatient for wider free dom; but when French authority is challenged, fight.
 Nine days ago, while President Premier Leon Blum tackled the problems of new Socialist in- terim government and even before the official Christmas Eve rebirth of war-shattered constitutional gov- ernment, fighting broke out between Viet- -Namoss and French in Hanoi, capital of Indochina and of the young Asiatic Viet-Nam republic. Engagements were reported swift fly in parts of the Northern Protect crate states of Tonkin and An- nam. Yesterday news dispatches told of troubles also in the south ern Indochinese colony of Cochin China.
 The French press agency reported "A Annamite, Indian and Chinese civilians killed in Christmas night gunfire attacks on four automo- piles near Saigon, Cochin China's capital French army officers were said to have attributed the attacks to efforts of Viet-Nam adherents to disrupt communications through cut the colony, perhaps in prepara- ton for an offensive.
 The newspaper France-Soir said that, with 10 p. m. curfew already on. colonial authorities put Saigon under a state of siege Thursday night, cancelled military leaves, re- stricted soldiers to barracks and instituted armed street patrols in the city and road guards on the outskirts.

The W Washington Merry Go Round
By DREW PEARSON

WASHINGTON-The hundreds of letters sent every day to the White House do not, of course, reach the President. Except for letters from actual friends or very important people, he never sees his mail. Let terS from others are sorted out and sent to appropriate branches of the Government for routine re- plies.
 If, however, President Truman should take time to read some of the letters that pour in to him from veterans on their housing plight, he probably would think twice about his pollyanna statement that all was going to be well in regard to. housing.
 In fact, if the President read some of tht veterans mail received by this writer, he might come to the conclusion that the White House surrender on housing would be chalked up as his maj jor hu- manitarian. if not political, mistake
 Whether a political mistake or not, however, the human emotions expressed in some of the housing letters received at this Christmas season are such that am pub fishing excerpts from two of them. One is from the chief housing manager of Louisville, Ky, Marshall F. Dumeyer, who writes:
 "Unashamed tears came from war heroes. Fear of divorce is routine during interviews. Where can I go?' What can I do?'
 Serious? Yes. Urgent? Yes. Pitiful? Yes. Yet we could not help most of them because of more serious, more urgent and more pitiful situations. I refer above only to families with children or where a child is expected within a short time. We have placed no childless families or non-expectant families with the exception of a completely paralyzed veteran and his wife.
 We did reach the vet with two children and an immediately ex-
