Vast Program Opens

By jones BirchfieId

GREENVILLE, Miss, April b.
Leaders of this rich Mississippi delta
area were pledged today to multi
million dollar program for the bal
anced development Of agriculture
and industry.
The program, aimed at making the
Middle South an economically inde-
pendent region, was launched here
yesterday at ceremonies aboard a
flotilla on the Mississippi River.
The pledge was signed by the COVER
nors or their representatives of Mis-
sissippi, Arkansas and Louisiana and
by Representatives of utility COM
panies in the area. A copy Of the
pledge was placed in a watertight
cylinder and dropped In the Mis-
siSsippi near the junction of the
three States.
G. Hamilton Moses, president OF
the Arkansas Light & Power Co.
characterized the program as a
declaration OF independence from
Northern capital" He said the
program would proceed without the
aid Of Federal assistance.
Points to Potential.
Pointing to the potential OF the
Middle South climate, labor supply
and abundant natural resources.
leaders predicted the area will be-
come a focal point for the Nation.
Diversification of agriculture-the
change from one-crop cotton farm
ling to a balanced livestock and crop
system-plus the rapid mechanical
ton Of Southern agriculture, lead
ers said, may mean ruin for this
region, unless industry Is developed
to absorb surplus labor.
Along with the industrial program,
agriculture leaders called for more
research in the utilization of farm
products and plant and animal
breeding programs to develop suit
able strains for the area.

The Republic of Korea

The divided state of our troubled post
war world was dramatically illustrated by
what took place last Saturday in Seoul,
the Korean capital. That ancient city
was the scene of colorful ceremonies in
augurating the new Republic of Korea.
Re-establishing the nationhood of people
subjected forty-three years ago to the
predatory imperialism of Japan, the new
regime was set up in accordance with
international agreements signed by the
chief victors in the late war, including
Soviet Russia, and as a result of demo-
cratic elections sanctioned and supervised
by the United Nations. It had likewise
been accorded diplomatic recognition by
the United States and China. in anticipa-
ton of probable approval by the U. N.
General Assembly.
/Ofhand, it might seem that this was
an impeccable start for a free and indie
pendent Korea. But north of an arbitrary
line, the thirty eighth parallel of latitude,
which bisects the country, very different
state of affairs prevailed. That is the
zone of Soviet military occupation. There,
the spokesman of puppet regime backed
by Russian bayonets denounced the Re-
public of Korea as fraud and betrayal
| of the Korean people by an avaricious
United States, supported by a subservient
majority of the United Nations And this
puppet regime disposes of a Soviet
equipped and trained native army esti-
| mated at 100000, obviously prepared to
| overrun South Korea II and when the
| opportunity offers. Indeed, the North
Korean regime has slated elections" for
a self-styled Supreme National Assembly,
likewise claiming jurisdiction over all
Korea and pledged to reunite the country
under Peoples Republic" on the Soviet
model and forming an integral part of
the Soviet bloc.
All this constitutes another major chal-
lenge between the Soviet Union and the
Western Powers. Although the United
States Military Government In South Korea
ceases to exist and its authority is trans
ferred to the Korean Republic, the reality

Hypocrisy Otherwise

The other day, before the Kosenkina-
Samarine kidnapping" case started fresh
outbreak of violent anti-American propa-
ganda, the Moscow radio did the unusual
thing of speaking in somewhat laudatory
terms of the United States. It praised
us for our fighting friendship and part
nership" with Russia in defeating Japan,
and 1t went on from there to assert
that Soviet-American collaboration lis just
as essential today as 1t was during the
war" BY indirection, moreover, striking
q mildly conciliatory note, 1t appealed
for a renewal of cooperation between our
two countries to establish "a stable and
lasting peace"
To the extent that it represented slight
change for the better from the usual tone
of Moscow's blasts against us, the broad
cast seemed at first to suggest the posi-
bility that the Kremlin might be moving
gingerly toward new policy calculated
to lessen the bitterness of the cold war"
and ease the tension existing between
itself and the West But the words of
praise were tempered with the assertion
that we could not have defeated Japan
without Soviet help and that certain I'M
named "reactionary circles in America
were seeking to restore the japanese war
potential. AS evidence of a friendlier
Russian attitude, the broadcast thus was
encouraging only in very minute meas
ure-too minute for cheers-and Soviet
propaganda has since made clear that
there probably is less ground for cheers
now than at any time since the end of
the war.
The truth is, of course, that there will
be no good reason for cheering until the
Kremlin demonstrates by concrete deeds,
and not mere words, that it is really
anxious to cooperate with the democratic
West in establishing "a stable and lasting
peace" Right now the deeds are entirely
lacking. The secret conversations between
Mr. Molotov and the Ambassadors of
France, Britain and the United States con-
tinue on their fateful course, but there is
as yet no sign that the Russians are willing
to lift the Berlin blockade IN return for
four-power conference on Germany as
whole. If anything, the situation in
the former German capital has grown
more tense, and the Soviet position ap-
parently is as adamant and grasping al
ever at the Danubian conference In
Belgrade.
In the circumstances, the minor note Of
Cancellation heard over the Moscow radio
can hardly be said to have meant anything
Every one will agree that sound peac.
makes Soviet-American cooperation "jus

But before such cooperation can be had

Sensible Zone Extension

Action of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission in enlarging the zones in nearby
Maryland and Virginia within which local
commerce vehicles may operate free of
ICC control is a logical move that will
relieve both the ICC and local transporta-
ton interests of a lot of unnecessary
bother. Such an extension OF the present
exemption zone had become inevitable as
a result of the rapid wartime growth OF
Washington and its suburbs.
The noninterstate commerce zone had
not been changed since 1887. In the past
decade it had developed into an arbitrary
straitjacket, discouraging local truckers,
retail business and other commercial in
terests from serving customers in heavily
populated areas beyond the 1887 boundary
For if trucks or even Capital Transit buses
ventured outside the zone they automat-
icaly would make themselves subject to
onerous Federal regulations designed for
control of Longtime transportation.
Although some of the petitioners had
asked that the zone be extended as far
as Rockville, Laurel and Fairfax Court
house. the ICC decided to draw the new
VIGIL WlIAAlAi oAAOoC PoiAioo. A>S'SA oAAS-
less, the enlarged zone will bring large
number of additional communities within
the favored area. The commission pointed
out that the population in the band be-
tween the old and new boundaries has in
creased since 1910 as much as 100 per cent
In some sections.
The commission made it plain that its
ruling in no way affects the pending juris-
dictional controversy between the 1CC on
the one hand and the District Public
Utilities Commission and the Capital Tran
sit Company on the other. Litigation is
pending in District Court to resolve this
dispute. which arises from the attempt by
the 1CC to retain fare-hxing control over
bus service to the Pentagon and several
other Federal Offices in Arlington. While
the commission did not say so, it would
seem that the order will, however, affect
the pending proposal to impose ICC safety
code regulations on trucking and buses
within the commercial zone of the Metro
politan Area. That proposal has been
vigorously fought by local trade repre-
sentatives, with good cause. The commits
sion has indicated, by it's latest order, that
all ICC control of purely local transpor-
tation will be waived in the expanded
zone-a very sensible decision.
