German Repurutions

The statement that Secretary Marshall
has submitted to Senator Vandenberg, in
which he sets forth his reasons for not
wanting to stop the dismantling of German
industrial plants, is not going to satisfy all
the critics of this phase of the reparations
program. Nor can it be said that the
Secretary's arguments are so persuasive
as to remove all doubt as to the wisdom
of what is being done. On the basis OF
the facts which have been developed,
however, and the inferences which reason
ably can be drawn from them, General
Marshall's argument carries the greater
weight.
In essence, the argument against the
dismantling program is that it is foolish
to tear down industrial plants at time
when there is urgent need for the goods
that might be produced in them. No one
can deny that there is a certain plausi-
bility to this contention, and it is no
answer to say that the dismantled plants
eventually will be put to work elsewhere.
For even if the benefciaries of the pro-
gram can work them as efficiently as the
Germans, which is doubtful, there is bound
to be a very substantial loss of production
in the time lag between dismantling and
resumption of operation.
The argument of the critics is one which
can be met only by balancing of con-
siderations; by showing, as General Mar
shall has sought to do, that the overall
loss from stopping the distmantling pro-
gram would be greater than the loss of
production which might be attributed to 1t.
General Marshall begins by discounting
the present economic Importance of the
plants scheduled for dismantling, his con-
tention being that they cannot now be
used in Germany. His argument is more
persuasive, however, when he discusses the
danger of impairing that unity of purpose
and feeling" among the western powers
which he properly regards as essential to
the recovery of Europe.
This is an allusion to the anxiety of
Britain and France to receive their share
of the dismantled plants and to the very
strong probability that, failing this, there
would be renewed and strong demand
for extensive reparations out of current
German production. 1t may be that we
would have the means of forcing Britain
and France to 60 along with us if we
should decide to abandon the diSmantling
program. But If we have that power, the
wisdom of exercising it would be exceed
ingly doubtful.
General Marshall makes two more main
points. One is that with the exception
of three plants, which had already been
largely dismantled, deliveries of German
equipment to Russia and Poland have been
halted pending the outcome of discussions
with the British concerning further repa-
rations deliveries to the Soviet Union and
Its satellites. The second Is that an In
vestigation now Is under way to ascertain
whether certain OF the plants scheduled

United Community Services

In working out plan for the merger of
the Washington Community Chest and the
Council of Social Agencies the effort has
been made to put more responsibility for
and control of community social welfare
work and policies in the hands of the
contributors.
A source of some of the dissatisfaction
with the Chest has been the belief that its
policies had somehow got out of control
of the contributors and into the hands of
the paid professionals. That may be true.
There are too few lay members Of the
community whose interest in the work of
the Chest has been sufficiently strong to
impel an active participation, on their
part, in personally overseeing its machin-
cry. The more outspok, critics of the
Chest have never been identified with its
work, in administration, contributing or
Embarrassing.
But the plan finally recommended for
adoption puts the responsibility squarely
up to the contributors. Every element of
the city's organized life would be repre-
sented in the councils of the proposed
United Community Services of Washington.
The machinery devised to bring this about
may be criticized because of its size. Men,
bership in the General Assembly might run
as high as four hundred delegates. The
Board of Trustees, elected by this assembly,
would exceed two hundred. Deliberative
bodies of this size are apt to be unwieldy.
But there can be no complaint that they
would not be widely representative of the
people of Washington. Every opportunity
would be available for debate, criticism
and suggestion.
Furthermore the machinery is not as
important as the people who would run
It, Active participation by Washington
organizations and representatives of the
unorganized public would not only make
the machinery work. 1t would create
needed interest in year'round welfare
work in Washington as well as in the
annual moneyraising campaigns And
it would instill a new sense of account
ability to the contributing public by the
agencies which derive support from the
Chest, campaigns.
The merger plan is the result of con-
scientious labor by men and women whose
single interest has been the welfare of
the community. If their plan is adopted
by the Chest trustees and the Council of
Social Agencies, the work of creating the
new body will only have begun. It's sue
cess will depend on the interest and the
extent of participation shown by COM
munity organizations in selecting their
representatives, to serve with delegates
from social and welfare agencies and the
lay public. There is not much time to be
lost. The United Community Services
will have much work to do in internal
reorganization, in the election of agencies
to be supported by the Chest and in per-
fecting the operation of a new method of
contributor controlled money raising and
expenditure.
If the community accepts it's new
responsibility there can be no question as
to it's competent discharge.

The World Lincoln

Events are combining to make Abraham
Lincoln world figure of transcendant
Importance. In 1860 he was only partisan
leader attaining the presidency of the
United States by accident; after Sumter
he was merely the head of half of a
nation; at the time of his assassination in
1865, Edwin Stanton's declaration Nov
he belongs to the ages" was simply per-
sonal opinion. Time was necessary, years
had to pass before people everywhere could
understand, appreciate and love this
lonely, friendly, consummate American" )"
He was like Shakespeare and Michelangelo
and Beethoven in that regard. His con-
temporaries could not get fan enough
away from him to see him in perspective,
to comprehend his generous mind and to
respond in kind to his forgiving spirit.
We citizens of the world of today have
an advantage over our fathers and their
fathers. The literature on Lincoln exceeds
the literature on Napoleon. Its impact is
evident everywhere. No individual can
escape it. Even the masters of the Kremlin
pay it homage. Our native followers of
Karl Marx display the Railsplitter's por-
trait beside that of Lenin at their public
meetings and call their brigades after the
Emancipator. Such hattery is signifi-
cant, If only because it shows how greatly
communism needs hero, lacking one.
Meanwhile, the facts-not the legends
concerning Lincoln continue to accumu-
late, continue to add to his value as an
exemplar of the ideals of practical democ-
racy. The opening of his papers in the
Library of Congress last summer was i'm
mensely conducive to clarifcation OF his
purposes, his objectives. Currently they
are being edited by scholar of distinction;
soon they will be published-and then the
last surviving Misrepresentation ought to
fade again into the nothingness from
which they came.
The Lincoln the world has learned to
know is as real as life itself His mag
netism is of piece with the law of gravity
1t draws all manner of folk, holds them
other doctrine can take precedence
over his faith that right makes might?
When or where has any other leader more
nobly affirmed the essence of civilized,
human existence than in the beautiful
words: with malice toward none; with
charity for all let us strive on to
finish the work we are in? These were
not expressions limited to a moment or
place. They arose out. of the depths of
experience; they are prophetic.
So the world Lincoln appears, speaking
only incidentally for America and for the
nineteenth century. His one hundred and
thirty ninth birthday anniversary best can
be observed by remembering that humanity
at large constantly requires "a new birth
of freedom - that government of the
people, by the people, for the people, shall
not perish from the earth"

A 'Hitlerlike Ghetto?
TO the Editor of The Star:

To the Editor OF The star
Under the caption. "A Setback to Plan
ming" referring to the refusal of the House
Appropriations Committee to approve the
$34O0000 for slum area redevelopment. The
Star stated In an editorial that the Fed
Grafton of Civic Associations fears that
various forces tend to establish a Hitler
like ghetto for colored citizens in the far
Northeast section of the District. It is a
matter of congressional record that Maj. Gen.
Grant testified when asking for the appropria-
ton that Marshall Heights and Barry Farms
would house $4,000 persons when developed
pages 261-2, House Hearings Report. We
were under the impression that this develop
ment was to house the colored citizens dis
possessed by eminent domain from the mid
city area. If this Is not the case, we were evi-
dently, as you say, mis- advised" Therefore
we are pleased to learn that these ghettos will
not be established
The press quotes Maj Gen. Grant as saying
we were entirely in error" regarding the
ghettos We welcome this knowledge that no
segregation policy is contemplated. To sub
stantiate the assertion of concerted drive to
force one-way northeast movement for de-
housed persons, the daily press OF February 4
states that over 200 Board of Trade members
and their guests were told by Mr.. P. 7. K.
Howat that plans are already made to secure
land to establish parking lots to accommodate
from 1900 to 1000 cars At the same meeting,
Mr.. Mark Lansburgh, chairman OF the D1strlct
of Columbia Redevelopment Land Agency, de-,
clared that there must be provided increased
living space for the higher-inc population
near the central area. To maintain the life
of the business section he said that 1t would
be necessary to have homes for the higher
income group in the critical central area"
Under the .guise of the humanitarian pur-
pose OF aiding the underprivileged inhabitants
of slum areas to obtain better living quar-
ters" it is proposed to use the cloak of eminent
domain to seize property OF thousands OF citl-
zens, destroying lifetime acquired homes,
breaking family ties, separating lifelong as
sociations and destroying the continuity of
church, school and home life.
"ExiIed in Mass"
Then these thousands Of ex-hone owners and
tenants whose seized houses were normal and
met the required high city standards will be
exiIed in mass as tenants to the Hitlerlike
area to be established in Marshall Heights
and Barry Farms In order to get rid of few
hundred substandard dwellings in what is
termed blighted area.
The iron curtain of the real estate interests.
the exclusive high property values and the
racial covenants form a barrier that closes the
Northwest to colored citizens. Whether In
territorial or not, the effect Is the same-a
squeeze play converging to one-way road
the Northeast.
So as not to be apprehensive. "ill-advised' or
entirely In error" let US have the an-over

Weather MANAGEMENT

DR.. Irving Langmuir, associate director
of the General Electric Research Labora-
tory, chose the middle of a real mean
winter to announce that: within the next
three years scientists should have enough
basic knowledge of man-made rain and
snow to be able to divert large snow and
rain storms from big centers of population
to relatively isolated areas What has
been happening in Washington, it seems,
will happen here in 1851 only if the resi-
dents of the local community want it to
happen. At least, organized common
sense" is developing technique which will
meet the requirement supposed to have
been expressed by Mark Twain in the
complaints Everybody talks about the
weather but nobody does anything about
It,"
OF course, human control of atmospheric
phenomena has been desired ever since
humanity has desired anything consciously,
The earliest Of men identified the unseen
Creator of the universe with the power to
govern drought and downpour alike. Hence
it is that the primitive Indian medicine
man of the Western plains is at one with
the bishops who in the Book of Common
Prayer dated 1862, petitioned: Almighty
and most merciful Father, we pray Thee
to send US seasonable weather that the
earth may in due time, yield her increase
for our use and benefit"
"Seasonable weather" however, includes
plenty of rain and lots of snow if it is to
produce the fruits of the farmlands ap-
pealed for. DR.. Langmuir's anticipated
management of clouds would be a curse
instead of a blessing were it to disturb
the principle of nature whereby precipita-
ton brings forth abundant wheat. The
agrarians of Manitoba would have been
delighted with the blizzard that New York
City gladly would have spared on De-

areas but also the delivery Of those broken
up clouds to portions OF the map where

'Intesration' of Negroes Urged

Tntesration' of Negroes Urged
To the Editor Of The Star:
This is in answer to q letter by A. w.
Nielsen, published February under the head
ing Different View Of Equality"
There is nothing different or new In the
theory that segregation accomplished by
Separate but equal" arrangement is the "legi-
mate" answer to Americas racial problem. No
matter how truly equal was the arrange
ment nothing could be further from the
truth.
Ever since the Civil War, the United States
has continued to battle with itself over the
problem of integration or parallelism, with the
latter progressively giving ground to the former.
That is as it should and must be.
The United States, by its Constitution, Is
citizenry of men without regard to race, class
or color OF this group, the Negro Is definite
part and insists on his being recognized and
treated as such,
America, at first by forced adoption, but later
by birth, is the Negros native land. Segrega-
ton, too, has sponsored in Negroes a national
pride and, because OF the peculiar history OF
the United States, desire to join with, not
against, the other white racial groups that
comprise America. GLORIA o. WRIGHT.
