tirely about the chances of the Russians

Is talking about. In the column beside
Mr.. Browns under the name of David
Lawrence, refreshing account of Sem

available
I think that something like "This
Changing World" would be an excellent
caption for generous section of The
Star which would be available to con-
tributors to the Moral Crusade for
World Peace"
THOMAS L. WILSON.
It is gratifying to read that not all
OF the Nations leaders are hopelessly
resigned to the present world ornaments
race. Senators Mcmahon and Tydings
have recently put forward the idea of
world disarmament as cure for the
worlds ills.
But, if these gentlemen would carry
their thinking one step farther. they
would realize that simple disarmament
by agreement or treaty is pure folly.
We and the rest Of the Western World
might have good intentions. but would
hate to trust the Soviet Union to live
up to its end of the bargain. Russia's
long list of broken treaties should be
instructive on this point.
Only when we realize that true world
disarmament can be effected only un-
der enforceable world law. can we seri-
ously work toward this end without lead
ing ourselves to slaughter.
RICHARD LOUIS ENDRES.
Like a breath of fresh air come the
words OF Senator Mcmahon, and the
ministers of local churches speaking out
for a more realistic approach to solving
our part Of the worlds problems These
are not words of fear, but of the highest
kind OF courage and vision.

these simple words have held more chal-

the arrogance which has assumed that
this is white mans world could be
shattered utterly. Christianity has
nothing in common with the color
blindness with which many in the West
are afflicted, who see only white flowers
on the tree of humanity Brotherhood
is climate that colors every landscape
with its magic charm and throws it's
divine tints over all areas of life The
creed of brotherhood is that there is no
inferiority of race that need be final,
and that the Well-being of backward
nations not yet able to stand alone must
be the sacred trust of those once weak
but now strong. Can Gods children got
wings" is more than the catch title of
plaintive melody. 1t suggests the one
big class and caste smashing fact of the
human race.
Yellow folks and brown folks of the
teening East are demanding now that
the boasted Whiteness of the West be
expressed in international and inter-
racial living which shall not betray and
deny the brotherhood we profess. The
supreme function of every church is not
just to preach brotherhood, not just to
ring the bells Of brotherhood It is to
get people actually to walk in the light
of brotherhood.
The shining path by which to reach
the radiant goal is glimpsed in these
lines:
Live and let live was the call of the old.
The call of the world when the world
was cold,
The call OF men when they pulled
apart,
The call of the race with chill on the
heart.
But, live and help live is the cry OF the
new,
The cry of the world with q dream
shining through,
The cry of the brother world rising to
birth,
The cry of the Christ for comrade-
like earth.'

AN AMERICAN MOTHER.
Who Is the Most Fairminded-
"Fairminded,' or Prof. O'Connor?
With reference to the recent reply
written by "Fairminded" in attempted
refutation Of more reasoned and sensi-
BILE letter by Professor OConnor of
Georgetown University, criticizing the
discrimination practiced by the Catho-
lie Youth Organization against the Ne
gro. may interject few thoughts?
The racial question is not, as alleged.
always raised by an agitating element.
Why deliberately try to misrepresent
the facts by implying that only an insig-
nificant portion OF our nation is con-
cerned with a national problem-and
that that element is always an agitating,
irresponsible segment Of our society?
It would seem that "Fairminded" is de-
liberately attempting to becloud the pro-
fessor's criticism with unfair and tangen-
tial accusations. *t
"Fairminded" is not particularly inter-
ested in the nature or effect of the ad-
mittedly worthwhile program for the
benefit OF youth, all youth in this area.
He appears to be concerned more about
the fact that responsible. and respected
citizen should seek to right what is
morally wrong. and especially so in view
OF the church support accorded the
wrong. 1t is the DR.. O'Connors who
represent the best sort Of white friends
of the colored, trying to lift the band
age Of prejudice and intolerance from
the real problem. "Fairminded" means
unprejudiced, just and honest-let us
not fly under false colors.

Daily we are deluged with hideous pre-

When will people realize that fear is

"Anyone can see there is something
wrong"
''Yes, indeed" repeated the King.
''We will call another DOCTOR" said
the Queen.
And so another doctor was called.
He also reported that he found moth
ing wrong with the princess. Of
course, the King and Queen were
not satisfied with this doctor either,
and so other doctors were called. In
fact, every doctor in the kingdom
was called in, but in spite of their
suggestions that Princess Helen take
vitamins and drink gallons of orange
juice and go to bed at sunset, Prin-
cess Helen didn't get any better.
But one day a funny little old
man with a round, smiling face
came to the palace and asked to
examine the princess. At first the
King didn't want to let another doc
tor poke and pry at his daughter,
but the Queen said, 'We must try
everything. Let him in"
The little old man was taken i'm
mediately to the princess room
where she lay in bed.
''Well, child" said the doctor,
''What is this hear about you? Can
you tell me what is wrong?"
The princess began to cry. 'I am
lonesome" she sobbed.' "I haven't
anyone in the whole wide world to
play with"
''Well, now that is nothing to cry
about" soothed the doctor. Surely
there is some boy or girl in the king

away.
''Yes indeed" the doctor told the
King and Queen later. "She need:

'But she is a Princess" exclaimed
the Queen. "She can't play with jus

'I think you are wrong" said the
doctor. "She is just like any httl,

And if you want her to get wei
