WORLD RELATIONS:
AtOm-Russ

Even as the United Nations Or
gsnization's security council strove
to compose differences with Russia
over the Iranian question, the U. S.
state department issued a special
report calling for the creation of an
international agency to control all
phases of atomic energy and avert
atomic rivalry among the major
powers.
Written by a distinguished board
of scientists and technicians the re-
port recommended the establish
ment Of an atomic development au-
thority that would own and lease
property and conduct mining, manu-
featuring, research, licensing, in
spection or other operations. While
the authority would possess absolute
control over the production of atom
ic weapons, it would permit utiliza-
ton Of atomic energy in such civilian
fields as medicine, biology, chemis-
try and physics.
The u. SIS secret processes in
development of atomic energy
would be gradually unfolded to the
United Nations authority as plans
progressed for its development. Re-
lease of preliminary information
necessary to discussion of setting up
the agency would be followed by
revelation of industrial know-how in
manufacture and finally the method
of constructing the A-bomb.
In releasing the report, Secretary
of State Byrnes pointed out that the
recommendations did not consti-
tute official U. S. policy but could
be considered as a basis for dis
cussion of the creation Of an inter-
national atomic authority.
Meanwhile, the security council
worked on means to adjust the diff
ficult situation posed by Russia's
walkout in protest over UNO's con-
%sideration of Trans complaint
against the Soviets for failure to
withdraw Red troops from the
country. While Russia's withdraw
al from the deliberations jolted
UNO, the Soviets were quick to
explain that their action did not
mean they were Withdrawing from
the United Nations, but rather OBJ
jecting to security council proceed

our people-at least a majority
Of u people-are trying to res

l have chosen, therefore, to
discuss the topic, The Negro Press
in a Changing World.
In order that you who are not
SO familiar with the origin, the
background and present status of
tie Negro Press may be able to
view it in the proper prospective,
let me review briefly these essen
tial details.
18TH ANNIVERSARY
This week the Negro Press of
the United States is celebrating
its 10th anniversary. That may
seem singular to those who recall
that the institution of legal sla-
very was abolished 81 years ago.
With a few exceptions we have
been in the habit of viewing the
social evolution of Negroes in
America in terms of what has
happened since emancipation.
But years before this historic
change occurred people outside Of
the region in which slavery was
legalized were indulgisg in the
good old American custom of
striving to make this Nation free
as a whole. Thus, in 1927 there
was established in New York City
a small sheet which bore the sig
nificant title of Freedoms Jour
nal. 1t was the first newspaper
dedicated to the Abolitionist
cause and ante dated G~arrison's
Liberator by -four years. Free
doms Journal was an organ of
protest.

foe Of the communist faction within
the JAW, Reuther thwarted the
reelection hopes Of R. J. Thomas,
head Of the union since 1888, who
enjoyed leftist support.
In winning the presidency of the
biggest union in the world, Reuther
announced the organization Of the
white collar workers in the indus

also said an educational program
would be undertaken to interest the
membership in union activity and

The stormy petrol of the JAW,
and head of the unions General Mo

American labor movement. Fired
from the tool department Of the
Ford Motor company for union ac-

led his men into the Go in 1888.

Rent Boost
Causes Concern
In Rockville

The suspension of OPA price con-
trolls has been felt in Rockville
through rent raises. A
of instances of increases
from 80 per cent to 80
per cent have been reported. One
landowner, James P. B. Veirs,
raised the rent of twenty five
tenants who live in a group Of
small bungalows just beyond
Rockville on Route No. 240. One
Rockville woman said that her
landlord had raised her rent so
per cent hoping that would force
her and her two little children to
move, so he could rent her apart
ment TO adults.
The only modern convenience in
the Veirs' houses is electricity.
Four and five room bungalows
which rented for SIT month now
will cost $25; six room bungalows
will be boosted from $40 to $27,
and several frame stucco houses
will rent for $50 month, altho
the previous rental was $22.
William Cruickshank and his
assistant, Mrs. Louise Peck, are
remaining in the Rockville OPA
office, on orders from headquart-
ers. Sugar is still rationed, Mr..
Cruickshank stated, under the War
Powers Act, and it is at his Office
that people get blanks for addi-
tional sugar, servicemen get their
sugar stamps, and people replace
lost ration books.
Most Rockville merchants have
assured their customers that their
prices on foodstuffs will not 60 up
until the wholesalers raise theirs.
Many wholesalers must have been
busy raising prices however. One
Rockville man refused to buy
butter in Washington on Tuesday
at csc pound. A customer in
Rockville store said she didn't see
how poor family with several
growing children could live, what
with milk selling at 19c a quart,
and meat going up in price every
day.
Automobile dealers say that they
are planning to abide by former
0PA ceilings. They report that
the suspension of OPA has not
made cars come into their show
rooms any faster.
