WHY NO LETTER

Some persons may wonder why Inc
Republican is not publishing a letter
to the Board of Education, Superin-
tendent of Schools and County Com
missioners this week from a commit
tee of nine persons from Kitzmiller,
concerning the school situation in
that town.
The letter was of such nature that
we refused to run it as a regular let
ter to the editor, but agreed to run it
as an advertisement for which one of
the parties paid. Then we noticed that
the signatures of all nine persons
were in the same handwriting. We
wrote a letter notifying the COM
mittee that before we would run the
advertisement we must know which
individual was responsible for sign
ing all nine names and that we also
would like to know where was the
original copy with signatures Of all
nine members.
A newspaper is entitled to know
such facts before printing material
that is controversial, whore name
calling is involved, and statements
made that might have to be proved.
We were notified to return the let
ter and money and not to run the
advertisement.
Whether or not they could not back
up those signatures we do not know.

Kitzniller Mine
Inspected Recently

Recommending safer blasting prac-
tees and other precautions for the
Milt No. / mine of the Burrell Coal
Company, Inc, near Kitzmller, a
Federal re-inspcction report released
by the Bureau Of Mines also cites re-
cent safety measures. At the time of
the June safety survey by Inspector
Harry Jones, the mine employed four
men and averaged seven tons of coal
day.
Coal was blasted on shift with
black powder, and Inspector Jones
recommended using permissible eX-
plosives or permissible blasting de
vices in an approved manner for all
on-shift blasting.
Although the mine was well ven
tilated, Jones proposed weekly a ir
measurements, replacing brattice-
cloth stoppings with substantial, fire
proof ones, and making preshift and
weekly examinations for gas and
other hazards.
The inspector credited the mine
such between-inspection safety gains
as erecting a fire door at an effective
point in the mine opening, con
stantly-attended ventilating fan, and
guarding the chain drive of a gaso-
line driven conveyor motor, and pro
viding adequate fire-fighting equip
ment.
Recommended also were a throw
for track switch, and the use Of
goggles by employees doing eye-haz-
ardous work.

farmer" to qualify for entry into
this country as a Displaced Per-
son.
This problem is No. l on the list
of complaints the Displaced Per-
sons Commission is being called on
to answer by it's critics in Congress
and elsewhere.
Although the situation now is
being corrected, the commission
says, it is true that the 80 per cent
preference to farm labor has
caused many immigrants to falsify
their real abilities and come to
America as farmers"
Some of them have found their
way to Virginia and Maryland
farms, causing dissatisfaction with
the DIP program
Screening frightened.
Recently, aptitude screening has
been tightened up with the aid of
the International Refugee Organ
izaJion, a branch of the United
Nations. Now job classification is
being stressed more, in addition to
security and health examinations.
The commission, headed by Ugo
CaruSi, with headquaterS at 815
Connecticut avenue NV. already
has brought 10000 DPS to this
country Of a 205,0 quota. 1t is
estimated that three-fourths of
the immigrants find their way to
cities and towns.
Once admitted to the country,
the DPS have the privilege of
moving to whatever new job or
location they wish. Thirty-three
State groups, named by Governors,
and county committees assist in
the broad program.
Elliott M. Shirk. the commits
sion's chief resettiement officer,
thinks the system is improving
with experience.
He pointed out that, when the
program was launched in 1948, a
good many American relatives,
friends and acquaintance of the
DPS obtained their admission to
this country.
1t was of no great concern to

his background. If he comes from
behind the Iron Curtain, real
check cannot be made.
More Care Used.
Mr.. Shirk said officials now are
trying to be more careful to insure
that the DIP can do the work he
says he cam.
The United States still is get
ting cases selected without full
regard for the overall objective
to aid the American labor and
farm market, Mr.. .Shirk said. But
it is being done to give good peo-
pie an opportunity to get to
America.
Mr.. Shirk outlined these steps
the DIP must 60 through to get
here:
After the sponsors papers are
sent to the commission head
quarters in Frankfurt, Germany,
field representatives get busy. The
voluntary agencieS-racial and re-
ligious groups - have their own
field representatives. The COM
mission maintains 10 area Offices
six in the American Zone of
Germany, one in the French Zone,
one in the British, one in Austria
and one in Italy.
FBI Helps Check.
The IRO aids in getting DIP
flngerprints, gives the first health
examinations, obtains all personal
documents, passports and other
papers. Then the investigative
units step in-the Army and the
FB1, watchful for spies and other
undesirables. A cooperative pro-
gram has been worked out with
Italian, French and British Off
cialS. They are on the lookout for
Communists and former Nazi off,
cials posing as DPS.
After that the DIP goes to an
orientation course. He hears lee
lures and sees movies intended to
4 convince him there is more to
America than glamour-that even
Americans work.

the American that the DIP would
not meet the exact job require
ment, Mr.. Shirk said. The Ameri-
can saw only chance to get his
friend out of DIP camp into the
haven of the United States. And
sponsor still may name specific
person he wants admitted.
The commissions selectors-the
screening officers abroad - were
obligated, in sense, to nominate
and process persons designated by
the American sponsors.
The outcome, in some instances,
was an unsatisfactory employment
relationship, Mr.. Shirk comedies,
particularly on some farms. This
was not the fault of the DIP, who
had no choice. He was nominated
by friend here and processed
regardless of his work ability.
Then there were the religious
and nationality groups who spon-
sored the largest number of DPS
-85 per cent of the total. The
balance was handled directly by
the Federal commission or the
State bodies. The religious and
racial groups had humanitarian
motives-to aid their colleagues
who had suffered so much.
Groups Tighten Up.
But now, Mr.. Shirk declared,
these groups have frightened up
on their own selection of DPS.
These include: Church World
Service. Inc, the Hebrew Shelter
ing and Immigrant Aid Society,
Inc, the United Ukrainian Amer
lean Relief Committee, Inc, and
the War Relief Services of the
National Catholic Welfare Con-
ference.
While the Federal commission
spends about 81 million on the DIP
program. the private religious and
nationality groups are spending
around $40 million a year on it,
Mr.. Shirk said. The IRO brings
the DPS to the United States at it's
expense on ships it has under
charter.
Particularly in the American
Zone of Germany, the IRO has
established trade test records, Mr..
Shirk said. But outside this zone,
there is no opportunity to test
ability to do a specific job. he said.
