one composed of those trying to
find permanent peace based on
the brotherhood of man, the
other, those who are cynically
sure that goal cannot be
achieved, or who want not peace
but domination.
On one side are ranged
chiefly Kings own father,
wealthy broker of the old pirate
school; Kings f1ancee, daughter
of a reactionary publisher, and
his former Princeton class
mates, one of whom is colum-
mist and hatchet-man for the
publisher. And, of course, the
Russians at the U. NJ, housed
in their "sand-papered brick
temple of Ananias" on Park ave-
nue..
Ranged on the other side are
Manuel Hinaldo. South Ameri-
can who is a delegate to the
U. NJ; Hinaldo's lovely daugh-
ter; DR.. Burton, head Of the
United States delegation to the
U. NJ, to whom King becomes
assistant, and various minor
characters.
King rejects the life where
Princeton men are safe forever.
He chooses to throw in with the
men of good will who band to-
gether to face the dangers
which are greater than they
could survive alone.
And Romance, Too.
There has to be romance.
Gen. Romulo puts it in, repre-
Sented by Hinaldo's bewitching
daughter; Julia, the fiancee;
Odette. the mysterious and sin
lister mistress of one of Kings
classmates. and various other
women.
1t all comes to a climax at
a barricade in Korea, where
some of Kings problems are
solved and the U. N. proves it's
value in united opposition to
Communist aggression.
If Gen. Romulo's dramatis
personae are characters repre-
senting ideas, rather than peo-
pie, 1t probably is inevitable in
a work intent on making a
point about the U. N. The
story should be adequate to hold
the attention of the casual read
er. Those who have admired
the versatile Gen. Romulo and
followed his career will find
added interest in the light it
throws on his personality. 1t
is his fifth book, but first novel.

(Farrar, Straus g. Young,

If Stain is at all curious
about how his assassination
could be accomplished, Mr.. Noel
provides blueprint in an ad-
venture yarn that begins in
1854 and climaxes with the as
sassination by an operative OF
"Bureau-X" on August 18, 1858,
the day the first atom bomb
falls on America. Unlike Geof-
frey Households Rogue Male"
who drew bead on Hitler out
of a sportsman's pleasure in

is well-trained ruthless killer.
To accomplish his mission OF
maneuvering into position
where he can get Stain in his
gunsights, he turns to sabotage
for the party in this country
and incidentally murders an old
friend. AS might be expected
of a Mccormick Hearst prophet
of doom, there's an unmistak-
able aura of II told you so"
lowering over this one, but the
projection into the future is for
the most part handled with skill
and more than a nodding &C

Pressure, by Charles Francis
Coe. CRandom House: $2.75o
Here's the case history of
poor lawyer enticed by sudden
riches to become the tool of an
international crime syndicate.
He finds himself entangled as
accessory in three murders
through guilty knowledge and
loses both his family and his
integrity before coming to a So
luton of his problem. In the
story sense, this is sheer melo-
drama embroidered with over
blown dialogue and incredible
situations. But Mr.. Coe is a
man with a message. He wants
to explain the concepts of evil
under which the master GRIM
inals justify their operations.
These explanations he puts into
the mouths of his criminals.
Those who have followed the

here but the articulateness Of

Rep. Carl Sims
Spends Weekend
In FIoqstoff

Legislator Carl Sims, Sr. spent
the weekend in Flagstaff as guest
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Wilson Riles, Prin-
cipal and teacher of the Dunbar
Elementary School there.
Mr. Sims said Mr.. Riles is doing
great work for his people, and is
the kind who knows how to get
things done Mr.. Riles had over
crowded conditions in his school
there; he complained to the
school superintendent and was
successful in transferring the 7th
and 9Th grade Negro students to
the white school, Mr.. Sims said.
The Arizona Daily Sun of Flag
staff had this to say about the
Legislators visit to Flagstaff:
Carl Sims, Sr., Phoenix, negro
member of the state legislature,
urged a group of Flagstaff citizens
Saturday evening to take an inter-
est in government affairs by reg
istering, voting, and keeping in
touch with their elected represen-
tativeS.
'If we wish to- be treated as
good citizens, we must do our part
by behaving as good citizens" he
said.
"a group of members of the Ma
tonal Association for the Ad-
vancement OF Colored People met
at the Riles home Saturday even
ing to hear Representative Sims.
He said that House Bill 86, abol-
ishing mandatory school segrega-
ton and giving each local school
board discretionary power to seq
regate groups of pupils" had been
adopted by the House by vote
of 1913, and would probably come
up on the state Senate this week.
He said that many of the state
senators had pledged to support
the bill, but that there was some
active opposition"

Neuroes Forced,
To Give Up Their
Homes, Hard Hit

AUGUSTA, Ca, (NNPA) - Col
ored people, numbering about
2,5OO, who are being forced to give
up their homes to make room for
the new hydrogen bomb plant,
twenty miles from here, are hard
nit.
A few of them are well-to-do
landowners, but most of them are
tenant farmers, sharecroppers and
farm laborers.
One view of their troubles comes
from Mike Cassels, white store
keeper in Ellenton, population
700, the largest town to be aban-
doned. He says: Some of them
haven't got anything, only about
81 in this world. Maybe it seems
that they must be as we'll off no
matter where they go. But they
love this land. 1t breaks their
hearts to leave"
A white Augusta business man,
who built a home in the area and
already has sold it on government
orders, says: "The Negroes who
live in this area and who farm the
land, and maybe make a little
moonshine, are the finest people
on earth. Their word is as good
as a bond.
"Some have money. There are
others, sharecropperS, who are
going to be better off than ever.
They, are good workmen. They
will get jobs on the bomb project
and better wages"

and State Department in Wash
