Racist Theory Defeated
Tho Senate Of the United
States can be proud Of the fact
that yesterday IL Fspudiated the

Of the cold war between totalitar.

United States who profess the

We seek those allies In q world

The Importance therefore, Of e.
tabliShing democratic practices
within our institutions and GER
tainly within our Armed Forces
canot be overemphasized. For on
these practices depends the future
Of democracy.
ION March 10, 1850, Secretary
Of State Dean Acheson said.
We cannot take the attitude
that what we do at home has
no relation to the rest Of the
world. Take. for instance, civil
rights. There are minorities in
our population who do not enjoy
all the rights we enjoy. We are
inclined to think Of that a. a
domestic problem. I assure you
Il IL not. There are vast pOpu-
lations Of the world watching
and drawing conclusions about
our world attitude from our
domestic attitude on civil
rights.'
TO send segregated armies to
all parts Of the globe would be the
most telling propaganda In the in

Trouble Behind the Curtain

According to a New York Times Dispatch
Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Romania are in the
midst of a serious production crisis. The coal
miners in all three of these Soviet satellite states
are said to be conducting go-slow strike that
has been in effect since September. As result
electric power is reported to have been cut down.
which in turn has so adversely affected industrial
output that the puppet governments involved are
believed to be facing political emergency
This is good news to the extent that it ndi-
Gates a measure of unrest and weakness behind
the Iron Curtain. Moreover, it serves as a some
what comforting reminder that there are strains
and stresses behind that curtain and that the
Kremlin does not necessarily have a tight and
sure grip on all the peoples it has dragged within
Its orbit Even so however, excessive significance
ought not to be attached to the reports from
Czechosovakia, Hungary and Romania.
