Boy, Il, Is EIecfrocuted
IBv Short Circuit in Pool
BY the Associofed Press

HARRISBURG, Pa, June IA
12-year-old boy was electrocuted
when a short circuit in an under
ground power line sent current
through a steel ladder in a public
swimming pool, DR.. Winfield Var
nell, deputy. coroner, said.
DR.. Yarnell reported that the boy
Clyde Peters of Harrisburg, died OF
electric burns yesterday as the
water was charged in a 15-foot
circle around the ladder at the Gay
Way swimming pool.
The boy and girl swimmer,
Rosemary Fritsch, IL, were within
the charged area at the time. Both
suddenly stiffened and sank, DR..
Yarnell said.
Two youths who saw the two sink
leaped to the rescue but were them
selves affected by the current and
had to be helped to the POOLS edge.
Both young Peters and the girl
were taken to the Polytechnic Hos
pital, where doctors said the girl
was not hurt seriously.
District Attorney Carl B. Shelley
said he ordered the pool closed
pending a further investigation of
the boys death.

Senate DIP Measure
Called BOBBY Trap
And Discriminatory
BY the Associ ted Press

Earl G. Harrison denounced the
Senate bill to admit 100000 displaced
Europeans to the United States as
"a BOBBY trap, sorry mess,
Ill befitting a great democracy"
Mr.. Harrison issued statement
attacking the bill as inadequate in
his capacity as chairman of the
Citizens Committee on Displaced
Persons" He was Federal Immi-
grafton Commissioner in 1942-1944.
"It has been deliberately designed
to exclude DPS, not admit them," he
said of the bill. Among other
things it discrimates on grounds of
religion, nationality and occupation.
He said it was particularly unfair to
Jews.
Changes Urged.
Mr.. Harrison urged that House
Republican leaders undo the mon
strosity of Senate action" He con-
tinued:
"An analysis of the provisions
revealed the tortuous and
devious methods adopted to aban-
don the displaced persons. .
This is what the bill really means:
Fifty per cent Of the DPS must
come from countries 'apnexed by a
foreign power'-Latvia, Lithuania
Estonia and Eastern Poland. On
its face this is rank discrimination,
because these people are nowhere
half of the total DIP population.
But the underlying discrimination
is in favor of the Balts who are
predominantly Protestant, and 1t,
therefore, is against Jews and Cath
olics.
Fifty per cent of the displaced
persons must be farmers or their
dependents. Since farmers are but
a small minority of the occupation
of DPS, the discrimination Of this
cause is obvious.
Rider to Bill Assailed.
"A special rider to the bill, per-
mitting Sudetens and other Euro
peans of German ethnic origin to
enter the United States under the
regular German quota, underlines
the racist character of the bill.
That the Volksdeutsche, the insid-
iouS Nazi fifth column, should be
handed special privileges over the
victims of Nazi oppression, is
mockery. of American justice.
ITO make doubly certain that few
if any victims of Nal oppression
can enter, an amendment to change
the date of eligibility from Deem
Der %, 1945, to April 21, 1947, was
defeated This was done with the
full knowledge that most of the
Jews arrived in the occupied zones
a few months after the December,
1945, date. Thus, less than 10000
DPS out of total of million can
qualify for admission under this
bill"

PROVIDING OPPORTUNITY FOR THE FUTURE MISS

According TO press reports OF the post rev doys
and widely published pictures showing the Presidents IN
the oct of accepting the authority from the War DePort
ment Senior Reserve Officers Training Corps have been
established at the Negro State College in Louisiana, en-
nessee, and AIobumo This just about makes the corp
universal for Negroes in the south with the single ex-
ception - Mississippi There is such thing as
the ROTC for the future Miss Negro soldier IN the h'en
schools ore colleges, nor anywhere else in the state
One of the easiest explained and understood tunc-
tons of the ROTC is that of training the future and
specte soldier to be better obe to toke care OF his Ire

With the Iorqest Negro population OF any state IN
the nation in time of war; Mississippi furnishes the lar
oest contingent of Negro soldiers who, equal to that
provided by any other stoe should have the opportunity
to learn TO take care of their life in time OF peace
in case they ore called into the army and sent to the
battlefield in any emergency
The highest purpose of the ROTC is that OF training
the future leaders and officers of the Army In this
spect the future and prospectWeMiss, Negro soldier
ought be given the opportunity to quolIty hnse IN
the some way that afforded the future and prospective
soldiers OF other states.
Corps in the Neqro Stote Colleges in other state is just
one more step pushing them farther ahead of the Negro
Stote College in Mississippi.
In normal times there has certainly been no iusti-
ficotion for the denial of the opportunities offered by
the ROTC TO the future and prospective Negro soldiers
in the HIGH School and colleges of the stote With war

the continued denial of this opportunity in the state.
1t can be reasonably doubted that ROTC wos obtoin-

the first interest being shown and the first steps taken
by the college presidents, and principals of the high

10 Nations Favor
Return OF Some
Colonies TO Italy

London, Aug. 8 - Ten of the
nineteen minor powers that have
been consulted about the dispos-
al of Italy's former Africon CO.
lonies have expressed the opinion
that one or more of the terri
tories should be restored to Italy
under a trusteeship.
This support for Italy5 as

when deputies of the United
States, British, Soviet and French
Roreign Ministers met to consi-
months of pettey prelifinar1es the
deputies got down to the serious
business of MISREPRESENTATION
to the foreign minister's on the
disposal of the foreign colonies.
All of the Eastern bloc Gov
ernments - Yugoslavia, Czech
oslovakia, Poland, ByeloRussia
and the Ukraine, followed the
Soviet line of advocating the re-
turn of all three colonies to
Italy under a trusteeship. Serveral
other powers, including some
British Deminions, advocated an
Italian trusteeship for at least
one of the territories.

cuse of "ineficiency." There's a
lot of leeway there. An industry
might be ineficiently. managed
from the viewpoint Of produc-
ton, or even from the viewpoint
Of incorporation with the gov
eminent.
Control. ANOTHER striking
The Beast feature of the Crisis
Bill, as reported by
Associated Press, was that. it
gave the government power to
tell both men and women where
to work and what to do. This in
cludes women from 10 to 40
years of age who have no children
under 16, and men from 18 to so
years of age. This loss of free
dom of individuals has been un-
thought Of heretofore in English
speaking countries.
1t is my earnest conviction that
England avoided this conscrip-
ton of her industry and her peo-
pie just as long as possible. These
steps must have been taken re-
luctantly. for she long has cham
pioned all the freedoms that we
hold dear. There is only n con-
clusion to be drawn: these dam
gerous and drastic steps cannot
be avoided under a government
managed economy. Once the
camel's head is in, there's no
keeping him out of the tent.
Every free American must take
this as warning. If we want free
dom to work at the job we
choose, where we choose, and to
bargain for our wages-then We
do not want a government man.
aged economy. If we want the
right to own property and to OPP
crate a business for what profit
there is in it, then we must stay
shy Of government managed econ
omy. The British experience tells
the story.
The Omaha guide., 1948-01-03

ONCE THE CAMEL gets his
head into the tent, he soon has
his entire body inside. This old
saw lends itself to some modern
applications, but it fits none bet
ter than the current English stu
alton. Socialism is indeed like the
camel; it does not stop at part
of-the-way measures. To put it
into a good old Southern express
sion, it's simply "whole hawg or
nuthin."
A striking feature of the Brit
ish "Crisis Bill" which recently
became law in that country, was
a clause giving government the
authority to take possession OF
any industry which it might pro-
nounce ineficiently managed. Ac-
tually, what this means is that
no industry in England is safe
from government confscation.
The threat will always be pres
ent, for the excuse of "inefficien-
ey" could be trumped up at any
time.
Invading FOR FIVE YEARS I
The Tent have commended. in this
column and in public
addresses, that no country could
operate successfully with a "half-
and-half" economy. If it's part
ly government managed and part
ly private enterprise, pretty soon
Socialistic schemes find excuse to
invade and take over. The pres
ent English government is prov
ing my contention. It's the old
"camel" process.
England is a country that long
has been known for devotion to
the freedom of individuals. Yet,
