Army Hits Pre-
iudice AS Fight
Against Jim Crow
UNI Grows

Washington, (ANP) - Shortly
after the emergency Committee
against jim Crow in Military Ser
vice and) training had announced
an all day conference to be held
in Washington on February 5, the
department of army came out with
statement condemning racial
prejudice in the armed services.
The purpose on the conference
which will be held at Lincoln tenn
pie is to rally progressive forces to
the critical fight against perma-
nent imi crow draft. The afternoon
will be devoted to lobbying and
mass meeting will be held IN
the evening.
A few days following this an
nouncement by Grant Reynolds,
national chairman and A. Philip
Randolph, national treasurer OF
the committee, the army released
a prepared talk to be delivered
to troops throughout the world,
urgig them to forget the race
bias.
Racial and religious prejudice
alienates the confidence Of the
vast non-whit populations as well
as other peoples, the Army said,
1t endangers democracy and world
peace.
Pointing out that three-fourths
of the people in the world are
colored, the army declared that
hese people are looking to Amer
ica's treatment of its colored cit
izens to see what they really mean
when they speak of democracy.
The statement pointed out how
the mistreatment of some Mexl-
cans in he United States echoed
throughout North and South A
merica, and how race riots pro-
woke discussions and resentments
in Africa, the Philippines and
among non-white people in Can
ada and India.
Among the points which the ar
my told it's leaders to stress were
the fact that racial and religious
preiudices resula from ignorance
and insecurity, that prejudices are
unChristian, unAmerican, and dan
gerous to democracy, and that
prejudice means disunity and en-
dangers world peace.
Last week, Secy. of Army, Ken
meth C. Royal was called to testify
before the house propafando IN
vestigators on the charge that the
department had been spending pub
lie funds to sell the American peo-
pie on universal military training
Rep. Forest A. Harness (R. Ind }
charged that the army is spending
a lot of money illegally to propa-
gandize the public on UNIT.
The army secretary was ques-
toned sharply whether the army S
publicity campaign on the peace
time training program was design
ed to bring pressure on congress
men by their voters, to pass the
UNIT bill.
1t was also brouygh out in the
hearing that $3,9O0,000 was spent
on the UNIT experiment held at
Fort Knox. Not one Negro was
permitted to take part in this ex-
pertinent.
If the UNIT bill passes in its pre-
sent form, it will mean perma-
nent iimcrow military draft. 1t
is probably for this reason that
| 10 youth leaders have issued a
call for action to defeat the univer-
sal training bill when it comes up
before congress These young
people representing religious, SOC
ial, veterans and professional and
educational groups will assemble IN
Washington on February 10 and
| Is to take action to defeat the
bill.

 AS WAS TRUE during all of 1947, the great and overshadowing problem confronting the world of na- ton in the year the problem of the relations be- tween east and west particularly between Russia and the United States All other questions and issues in international life not only overshadowed by that problem but swallowed up by it.

Survival In The Air Age"

(Rocky Mountain News)
 IF THERE WERE SUCH A THING as required read ing for every American citizen, we would place near the top the report of the Presidents Air Policy Con- mission.
 Survival in the Air Age" is the title The conclusion is that the United States may not survive unless we drastically and quickly step up aviation defense against attack.
 The commission finds that we cannot depend on the United Nations alone to develop necessary authority fast enough to prevent another Therefore it pro- poses doublebarreled policy of working for peace through the United Nations, while arming America strongly that others will not dare to attack-or will suffer defeat if they do,
 The absolute deadlne for defense against atomic a- tack fixed as Jan 1853 Other nations expected to have atomic weapons in quantity by that time.
 The Commission points out that while the chief dan ger of planned major war is five year off, there is however, such thing as bunderng into war" before. Hence the need for immediate preparedness.
 Our strategic concept must be based on air power
 That the commission admits, will be extremely ex- pensive It would increase the Air Force from 55 to 90 air groups-the present budget of less than three billion dollars would be raised to than four billion dol lars for the 948 calendar year and nearly five and half billion dollars in 1949.
 At the same time, the Navy air budget would be in- creased half billion over the next two years.
 Without going into the many detailed recommenda- tions of this exhaustive report passing judgment it's technical aspects wish to register agreement with it's basic findings
 We believe the danger of future war is terribly real We believe that our nation should provide constructive peace leadership through the United Nations, the Mar shall Recovery Plan for Europe and special aid to such exposed countries Greece, Turkey and China. !
 But that peace programs cannot be effective unless backed by military force which the Krernlin under stands Superior air power is essential.

and the Soviet Union will without question intensity war fears and accelerate was preparations
 The circumstance that in the closing hours of 1947 Foreign Minister Moloov of Russia has suggested the advisabity of summoning conference to take up the German and Austrian problems anew has aroused little hope in Washington.
 The reaction to that move here has been decidedly negative The feeling is that MOlotov ndulging in conciliatory gesture but merely providing himself with ammunition for another propagandist assault against the west.
 But if Russan-A American relations cannot conceiv- ably get much worse is there any chance that in the months that lie ahead they will somehow get better?
 In world in which the unpredictable and does happen, it would be unwise to discount such possib ity altogether.
 vast deal depends on the policies pursued by the United States If the Marshall plan is fully supported by Congress- if the required to set western Europe on the road to recovery promptly voted and without crippng limitations, change in the Russian attitude before 1948 out would not be out of the question:
 Since the Soviet regime into being in 1917 Rus sian foreign policy has followed not straight line but
 series of zgzags There have been retreats well advances periods of conciliaton toward the capitalist west well recurren reverSOns to the basic mood of hostility toward those nations.
 Experience has proved that the leaders of the Soviet Union have incurabe propensity for being nfluenc ed in their thinking world affairs by purely docrin are consideration and WiShfu thinking But the record also shows that they know how to recognize stone wall when they find their country running into The actual going into force of the Marshall plan would clearly mark the failure of the most important of presentday Russian aims willynilly to force change in Soviet policy, temporary as that change might prove to be.
 To expect early and wholehearted action by Congress on the Marshall plan is to expect the impossible. We have the great authority of Rep Charles Eaton chairman of the House foreign affairs committee that final action this matter may not be taken until June
 In the meantime take it for granted that the Kren will continue to battle the Marshall Plan and every weapon in its armOry to defeat it. And the Soviet leaders will find vast encouragement in every sign of hesitation by the United States every indication of division in our ranks.
 In the meantime, too can expect Russia to inten- sfy her efforts, already very largely successful to crush every vesge of democratic sentiment in eastern Europe and to pursue along the periphery of Soviet power what be described the Open Sore policy policy of doing everything possible to prevent the po
 tical stabilization and the economic recovery of
