CATHOLICS BACK
TRUMAN STAND
ON CIVIL RIGHTS

NEW ORLEANS, La. - T h e
New Orleans Archdiocesan Com
mittee of the Catholic Committee
of the South today was in agree
ment with the basic principles of
President Truman's message on
civil rights.
The committee recommended
serious study of the message.
1t asserted that committee
members, as Catholics and citi-
zens:
Subscribe to the basic princi-
pies of human dignity and of the
responsibilities of individuals in
a free democratic society, and be-
lieve that those concepts are part
of the natural law and are recog-
aized In our constitutional
scheme"
The statement added that the
committee believes the Presidents
message includes statement of
principles as particularly applica-
BILE to the problems of minority
groups who have not always
shared in the practical benefits Of
our democracy" The committee
added:
I'VE regret that many leaders
in the South have refused to ac-
cept In good faith the Presidents
message. We sense in their state
ments the seeds of race prejudice
and reaction, indicating to us a
lack of agreement on the funda-
mental principles of human rights.
We fear that such an approach
to the problems involved will tend
to isolate the South as a region
and weaken the nataion."
In New York, the Importance
of immediate enactment of feder-
al anti-lynching legislation was
emphasized by Roy wilkins, edi-
tor of Crisis and assistant secre-
tary of the National Association
for the Advancement of Colored
People, at forum of the Catholic
Interracial Council. He said:
THE vast majority of people in
this country today don't approve
of lynching and yet number of
them won't accept a federal bill
to stop it. They say that lynch
ing is dying out, that most peo-
pie are good, moral citizens, and
why not let the South handle its
own problems. What these peo-
pie fail to realize is that it has
been the pressure of outside opin-
ion, the Indignation, really, of
people outside the South, and
even outside the United States,
that has effected this decline"

ALLIANCE WITH DIXIE
QUESTIONED BY NAACP

NEW YORK, = In telegram
sent to five leading northern
Democrats N A A G P secretarys
Walter White expressed concern
at the recent coalition of these
men with such bitter opponents of
civil rights legislation as Senator
Lester Hill I'd. Ala.) and the Gov
ernors of South Carolina, Arkans-
as and Virginia.
The telegram, which was sent
to James Roosevelt, chairman Of
the Democratic Committee of Cal
|ifornfa, Jacob M. Arvey, chairman
of the Cook County Democratic
Committee in Chicago, Mayor VIII
liam O'Dwyer of New York City,
Mayor Hubert Humphrey of Min
neapolis and Chester Bowles, ex-
pressed the appreciation of Negro
Americans for the continued sup
port given by these five leaders
to civil rights legislation. In view
of this support, the NAACP Sec
rotary declared himself at loss
to understand the planned coali-
ton, recently announced in the
nations press, between these men
and southern Democrats, in an
attempt to prevent the renomina-
|tion of President Harry Truman
lat the Democratic National Con-
|vention, inasmuch as the Dixie
leaders had openly based their
Opposition on the issue of civil
rights.
Experience has taught u.s."
wired Mr.. White, ''that coalition
with such elements means COM
plete sacrifice of all civil rights
measures. How do you propose
to press for inclusion of a civil
rights plank in the Democratic
party platform while working
hand in hand with these southern
politicians who have openly de-
clared they would rather see the
party defeated than permit inclu-
sion of plonk upholding equality
of citizenship for all Americans?
How can you as a liberal col
laborate with avowed enemies of

Seven New Press Lords

To the seven new owners of the Wash
ington Times-Herald The Star offers its
good wishes and congratulations.
Three of them, William c. Shelton, gen.
>eral manager; Michael w. Flynn, super
vising managing editor, and j. Irving Belt,
mechanical superintendent, have been
fixtures in local newspaperdom for many
years. About the time that Bill" Shelton
was selling newspapers on q Georgetown
corner, Irving Belt was getting started
with the old Washington Times under
Stilson Hutchins. Mike" Flynn was head
of the copy desk in Munseys old Times
when Irving Belt was running its COM
posing room. The four others-Frank c.
Waldrop, editor in chief; Edmund F. Jewell,
advertising director; Mason S. Peters,
night managing editor and Harry Arthur
Robinson, circulation director, antedated
on the old Times or the Herald the merger
of the two papers.
All of them came up in the newspaper
business the hardest way and learned
what they know in one of the toughest Of
all schools of experience. The reward to
which they have fallen heir was won by
loyalty and hard work. With Mrs. Patter-
son they were the team that built up her
new paper and her bequest is public
acknowledgment, in tangible and bounti-
full form, of the confidence she reposed in
them. Every working newspaperman
knows precisely how he would run his own
paper ii he were the boss. Few of them,
for better or for worse, have the oppor-
tunity to test their theories. To the seven
new proprieters of the Times-Herald the
opportunity now has come May they use
1t wisely.

Good Place to Sturt

Defense Secretary Forrestal does not
have to 60 outside the District of Columbia
to begin his proposed merger of Air Force
and Navy air bases. What better place
for tryout at least, of the joint-base plan
can be found than right across the Ana
costa River? There are to be found
Boiling Field and the Naval Air Station,
separated only by juriSdictional line,
but with two control towers, two sets of
runways and two administrative head
quarters.
During the lengthy debate over the
armed forces unification program these
two adjoining bases were cited as prime
examples of the need for coordination.
If not actual merger, of military bases.
From the standpoint of safety alone it
could be- argued that one control tower
might better direct all air traffic over these
fields. This would mean incidental savings
in overhead, for only one installation of
expensive radar and other communications
and control facilities would be necessary.
Mr.. Forrestal has directed the Joint
Chiefs Of STAFF to study the whole question
OF joint use of Air Force, Army and Navy
bases, with a view to recommending mer-
gers wherever feasible and desirable. There
are some two hundred military air fields
in the United States many of which, of
course, could not be merged or dispensed
with. But there seems to be no good
reason why fields so close together as
Boiling and the Naval Air Station should
not coordinate their operations in the
true spirit of unifcation. The joint chiefs
might well open their study by making an
inspection across the river.

For SuIe-One Parkway

1t is highly improbable that the Army
Department has any serious intention OF
selling on the open market its war-born
white elephant, the 100000 Suitland
Parkway in Prince Georges County, Mary
land. The idea of auctioning of this
public highway to some private bidder is
utterly fantastic. But the hint of such
plan, implicit in the Armys move to turn
the road over to the War Assets Admins
tration as surplus property" should have
the salutary effect of facilitating ANAL dis
position of the parkway
This project did not originate with the
Army, 1t was planned before World War
II by the National Capital Park and
Planning Commission in collaboration
with Maryland authorities Its immedi
ate purpose was to give Federal employees
in the Suitland area convenient access to
Washington. Ultimately it was hoped to
extend the highway to the Chesapeake
Bay resort network of roads. With the
outbreak of war, however the Army took
over the project as an emergency meas
ure designed to link Andrews Field with
Boiling Field and Washington. Graded
as a dual highway, only one concrete strip
seven miles long was laid. This strip ex-
tends past Andrews Air Force Base to the
Marlboro road. The highway is attractive
ly handicapped.
Now that the war is over, the Army
would like to turn the parkway over to
the National Park Service or some other
appropriate agency. 1t is costing the Army
about $4,000 year to maintain the road
this sum being paid to the National
Park Service to do the job. There is no
urgent military reason for continuing
Army control of highway that is used
more by the general public than by mill
tary personnel. But the Army's efforts to
get rid of the property have not been sue
cessful to date. Bills to transfer the high
way to the Park Service were introduced

the increased pay and prestige of higher

old as war itself and one that has proved
itself to be indispensable to victory.
Neither General Bradley nor other mill

there were fiurries of criticism that re-

pointed a special board of inquiry, headed
by Lieutenant General Jimmy Doolittle.
The board made numerous recommends

Others were discarded as impracticable or

denied that the Army was afflicted with
any castles of the Prussian tradition. In

The Army's Caste System

General Omar Bradley, Army Chief OF
Staff, has delivered timely comment on
the Army's so-called caste system. With
the new Selective Service System soon to
begin, it Is we'll to remind prospective
draftees that equality of treatment. and
opportunity" in the armed forces does not
imply any relaxation of regulations or any
leveling OF ranks. Respect for superior
authority will remain the cornerstone of
military discipline.
General Bradley did not deny that the
Army has q sort of caste system, If by
that Is meant grades Of authority from the
