Time for Another Shrek

1t was not long ago that Senator Douglas
uttered shriex, as he left the Senate chamber,
that echoed from one end of the country to the
other. That shrek was the Senator's exasper-
ated reaction to the observation, by another SEN
ator, that those behind the Iron Curtain would
be glad to read about what Senator Douglas
had just said. No shrek ever brought such
understanding sympathy from people grown sick
of hearing the difference between right or wrong
wisdom or unWisdom, measured by what some
body says the Russians will think about it. Is
1t out of the question to decide anything by
ourselves, without inviting the Communists in?
So, let us all shrek again! Commissioner
Donohue, giving his regular Saturday evening
radio exhortation to the people of Washington,
makes solemn reference to the advantages ac-
cruing to the Communists by reason of the dis
pute over assigning some Is Negro firemen to
companies of white fremen.
Why not leave the Communists out of this?
Why does it make any difference to us what
they think? Why not accept the fact that Wash
ington firemen, white and colored like the people
of the community in which they live and whom
they serve so well, are subject to prejudices
which, in one form or another are an inherent
part of the normal human being; that prejudices
change, but never vanish, and that the debate
over the Fire Department issue will in time
be resolved fairly and sensibly-w without bringing
In the opinion of Communists to influence us in
our thinking and our progress.

which produces color apparently as good as that
of CHS and which has the advantage of being
compatible with black-and- white television.
There obviously was need for further re-
search in the field of color television before any
system was adopted as standard. The suspen-
sion OF color TV manufacture will afford an
opportunity for such research and development
by all competing interests-unless the Govern
ment puts ban on laboratory as well as factory
activities conference has been called with
representatives of the industry to consider such
an additional ban. 1t is to be hoped that some
way can be found to permit further develop
ment of color TV without serious interference
with defense production. Then, when the de-
tense production emergency is past, the FEC
should take another look at competing systems
and decide whether its original decision in favor
of CHS should stand.

Only Yesterday

A century isn't very long II you say
it fast Recently came across a quote
in Harper's Weekly for October. 1857.
which might have been written yester-
day. Judge for yourself how We have
progressed:
1T is gloomy moment in history.
Not for many years has there been so
much grave and deep apprehension;
never has the future seemed so meal
culable as at this time. In our own
country there is universal unrest, and
millions of our fellow citizens are fearful
Of the future.
In Europe and Asia. the political
caldron seethes and bubbles with uncer-
tainty; Russia hangs, as usual, like a
cloud, dark and silent, upon the horizon
Of Europe; while all of the energies,
the resources, and the influences of the
British Empire are sorely tried. and are
yet to be tried even more sorely, in
coping with the vast and deadly dis
turbed relations and conditions in China
and in India.
1T is solemn moment, and no man
can feel an indifference, which, happily.
no man pretends to feel. in the issue
of events.
"Of our own troubles, no man can
see the end; but. they are. fortunately.
as yet mainly political and commercial" !"

"As friend of Templeton Jones, :"
writes L. H. M. of Chevy Chase. Il am
getting concerned over the dismal and
frustrated outlook he is developing. And
the world in such sorry state. too"
Don't worry. nam, Templeton Jones
is not frustrated.
Jones is just honest, and often such
person is misunderstood, there are so
few Of them.
The honest man has a hard row to
hoe in this world. Maybe it will he
different in the next. but for here and
now he is pretty near helpless.
The trouble is that mankind does not
60 forward on truths, but on untruths
and approximations Of truths, creeping
as on stills.
Between the two man shuttles back
and forth until death takes him, as the
country newspapers put it.
Templeton Jones is an expert in
honesty.
At first he didn't realize it, but as life
went along, and he met more and more
human beings, he came to have con-
scious realization that he was different.
This was so mainly because he saw
things as they are. not as he or some
other wished them to be.
Such man often Is called 1ealist.
Jones has always pooh-pooha the

term. because he knows that life is made
up Of imagination as much as reality.
Recent scientific advances, as they are
called, show clearly that many things
we regard as very real and solid merely
seem so to our senses.
Actually they are aggregations of
whirling motion. all ready to blow the

X
The truth Is So unacceptable to most
persons that they simply will not accept
it, out prefer to laugh it off. as they
say.
Jones has tried this out in various
small ways. but finally had to give it up,
because it always meant i'll will.
Our innocent old friend never means
to irk people, but often does by his
intense interest in the truth. as he sees
truth.
He recalls one time he was standing
at a magazine counter, looking them
over. when q facetious friend ap-
preached.

friend, trying his best to be funny, in
the popular tradition. "Why don't you
pay for it, instead Of reading free? What
are you trying to do?"

at that stand. the questions were not
humorous at all. Il

His answer was exact and truthful.
Il am just trying to mind my own
business" he said.
So ended beautiful friendship of a
pale sort. 1t never amounted to much.
Ordinary people just don't like the
truth.
The idea that every one has a great
opportunity to help the world forward
is known by all honest persons to be
pretty much dream, but try and say
SO openly and honestly.
Such honesty goes contrary to a pop
ular American tradition.
These traditions go deep, and have
done some good in their day, but their
day is drawing to close.
Unless the American people listen
more to truth tellers. including Temple
ton Jones, and then go on from there,
they will become just like the peoples
OF the rest of the world. instead of
holding their own position as Americans.
Templeton Jones is an American,
provincial American, if you please, and
proud of it.
He believes that Americans can sue
ceed only by being Americans, not imi-
tation Europeans.

the lady says, then make the most Of

Congress Goes Home

The remarkable thing about the 82nd Con-
gress, at the end of its first session. Is that it
was able to accomplish so much while operating
in kind of political stalemate.
Mr.. Truman had no semblance of effective
control over this Democratic legislature. The
President had needleSsly alienated many of the
ablest Democratic members, Senator Douglas of
Illinois being conspicuously among them. In
addition, an informal but powerful Republican,
Southern Democrat coalition was able to pre-
vent passage or even consideration of key items
in the Fair Deal legislative program On this
score, MIR. Truman has lost all of the control
that President frequently is able to exercise
over his own party membership.
The Congress functioned most creditably in
the areas of national defense and foreign policy.
Approximately $57 billion was appropriated for
defense another $50 billion was authorized for
acquisition of overseas bases, and $7.5 billion
was provided to help strengthen the economies
and the military forces of friendly foreign coun-
tries. This was an unprecedented peacetme
effort, and while the performance was somewhat
less than satisfactory in certain details the
overall result is definitely in the best interests
of this country and the free world.
There is room for the feeling that Congress
failed to meet fully its responsibilities in passing
the Defense Production Act. This measure
weakens price and wage controls, and it was
passed over the protests, not only of the Pres
ident, but of politically independent Government
officials such as Charles E. Wilson. There GER
tainly is doubt that this measure provides the
tools that will be needed to cope with growing
inflationary pressures. The new tax bill is in
somewhat the same category. 1t is designed to
raise $5.7 billion in additional revenue. Leaders
like Senator George say that is all the economy
can stand. But the President and his fiscal
aides say it will not be enough to prevent
Federal deficit, and that therefore it will serve
to aggravate our inflationary problems.
The balance of the session, so far as public
attention was concerned, was devoted mainly to
investigations which unearthed extensive cor
ruption-some of it serious and some petty
within the administrative branch of the Gov
ernment This first session, however, left these
matters in the exposure stage. The disclosures
were made by both Democrats and Republicans,
with the result that the Investigations did not
take on any significant partisan coloration.
That will come when Congress re-assembles in
January, with a presidential election in the
offng.

Steel for Schools

The House subcommittee on education
has heard dozens Of school people ana
private citizens describe the plight of
schools throughout the Nation brought
on by restrictions against use of steel for
new construction.
Children. it seems, are being crowded
into everything from attics to Easements
that can serve as temporary classrooms.
Learning under such conditions must be
anything but easy. And the food of
children still to come into the school
systems Is without precedent.
In spite of the Nations most obvious
need more classrooms - the dunder-
heads who allot steel have allocated only
$4,000 tons for new school construction
for the first quarter of 1852. That is
4|10 Of 1eo Of the total they have avail
able for ALLEGATION.
The q. s. Office of Education, after
careful screening of applications, is re-
questing $4,000 tons, believe That is
barely more than one per cent of the
amount available for distribution.
Communities do not vote for, or put up
the funds for a school building program
unless it is a case of life or death. Con-
sequently, you may be sure that the
Office Of Education's estimate of needed
construction must constitute need with
capital N. It must represent long
postponed school building programs-for
who ever heard of school building
program that was not screened again
by local discussion before application
made to the Office of Education for
steel?
