RenspectiOn and setting up of new G. |.
training agencies will soon be underway. We
are of the opinion that the aim of the Vet
Grams Administration remains the same but
under new provisions the procedure has
changed These training agencies consist of
schools and business establishments approx
ed for the training of veterans of the Korean
war; Under the Korean CT Bill, schools and
training establishments must obtain state
certfication before they may offer training
to Veterans. Governors of each state are ex-
pected to set up machinery for approving
schools and business establishments as soon
as possible.
1t is believed that reinspection and re-
certification of already approved schools and
establishments can be attributed to the fact
that number of phoney training institu-
tons were set up during World war two,
according to investigation reports.
Under the present provision veterans
are allowed one half day for each day OF ser

A Tie From Uncle Harry

President Truman's latest press con-
ference made it clear that he is not going
to be easily pushed into the background OF
the Democratic campaign. He said that he
was the "key" man and that the party must
run on the New Dea-Fair Deal record
Just when Governor Stevenson and SEN
ator Sparkman thought they had made some
progress in breaking away and taking line
of their own We are reminded of the plight
of the young man who got a Christmas tie
from his uncle.
He didn't want the thing in the first
place, and he especially didn't want it from
Uncle Harry. But he got it. And you know
how it is. Not only do you have to say
Thank you" politely; you have to make
some gift in return. Worst of all, you have
got to wear that tie-even though it is
covered with uncle's name and embarrass-
ing pictures of mess" in Washington.
1t wouldn't be so bad if Uncle Harry
lived in Timbuktu. But when he is right
next door and holds the controlling interest
in the family business where you work, it's
really tough. You can't just leave that tie
in a drawer or put it in the furnace. You
can't rip Uncle Harry's label off It's WOW
en- right in the silk So are the mink coats
and deep freezes And when you cover it up
with a vest he is sure to come along, tear
open the vest, and point with pride to his
product.
That was what Mr.. Truman did at his
press conference That is what will continue
to happen throughout the campaign. And
it may be Just as well. For the voters would
not be getting true view of the campaign
if 1t was made to appear that the young
man with the tie was wholly on his own.

How Silly Can We MortaIs Get?-

we prefer segregation. This is very much
the philosophy of the Arkansas Negro
Democratic association
The association for twenty-odd years
has been fighting to make the Negro
first class citizen on the one hand, and on
the other, it has never been able to discard
the philosophy of branding the Negro sec
ond class. However, this particular assocIa-
ton isn't too much to be concerned with
in this day and time, Many years ago there
appeared a Negro in this country who was
rated as one of the greatest leaders Of his
day, and he entertained the idea that all
Negroes should be sent to Africa and start
ed such movement Even in that day and
time the Negro was too shrewd to let Mar
Gus GarVey, the leader Of the "Back-to-
Africa Movement" run them to Africa,
which gave strength to the knowledge that
the Negro is too smart now to let |. S. NJ
Clinton, head of the Arkansas Negro Demo-
cratic association retard them,
We know segregation is silly. We know
the white man is silly when he enforees
segregation upon us. But what We don't
seem to know is, that we are downright
disgusting when we force segregation upon
ourselves and then glorify it by advertising
to the world.

Sees Good In Eisenhower's Southern Tour

dure by which this can be achieved The
building of a strong and effective Repubh-
can party south of the Mason and Dixon
line would be one of the main instruments.
In going into the south, General Eisen-
hover as the Republican standard bearer,
will not be on mission of appeaSement; he
will not be surrendering the traditional and
historical role of liberalism that has been
the hallmark of the Republican party since
its founding.
In campaigning in the south, General
Eisenhower will do nothing and say nothing
that would dam the we'll springs of strength
and good will he has among Negroes and
other groups in the north and west For all
people realize that America ultimately must
become united Governor Dewey made a
great contribution to that unity in 1913
by refusing to make a campaign based on
division of the people. Eisenhower, another
yankee General invading the south can
do much to ease the sore that has festered
since General Sherman's invasion many
years ago
Yet General Eisenhower will not sac
rifice the Negro on the altar of expediency
There will be no Sell-out of the Negro to
gain votes. The COP candidate will carry
into the south the fundamental philosophy
of the party, and in his crusade to estab-
lish the Republican party firmly in dixie
and break up the solid south his campaign
also can contribute greatly to the destruc-
ton of the racial superiority myth and help
expand the political, social and economic
opportunities of all citizens.
II the country is even to be united, the
Republican party will have to do the job
The hard core of the Democratic Party IS
in the south and its philosophy can never
be extended beyond its borders.

General Eisenhowers decision to cam
,,;on in the south should be heartening to
all Americans, for in this excursion he is
rendering the nation a great service. In
1eas Governor Thomas E. Dewey as the Re-
nublican candidate for president of the
United States put heavy stress on the need
for unity, and now, General Eisenhower as
the COP candidate, by his efforts in invad-
ing the south, will be seeking to achieve the
unfinished work of the first COP President
Abraham Lincoln.
In his Second Inaugural Address, Mr.
Lincoln said. wish malice toward none;
with charity to all; with firTnness in the
right as God gives us to see the right; let us
strive on to finish the work we are in to
bind the nations wounds, to care for him
who shall have borne the battle, and his
widow and his orphan to do all which
may achieve and cherish just and last
ing peace among ourselves and with ma
tons"
What Lincoln so well envisoned and
hoped for has now become a challenge to his
party to make living reality. The Repub-
lican party has contributed much to the
cause of human freedom. And by virtue of
its historic beginning-having been conceive
ed in liberty-the Republican party is better
equipped morally and spiritually than any
other party to guard the ramparts of free
dom for all people. II follows, then, that
no party could be more conscious of the fact
that there Is no better method of insuring
liberty and freedom than by extending these
blessings to those equally deserving citizens
to whom they are now denied.
II the Republican party is to prove it.

The Minnesotan, who led the
successful 1913 convention floor
fight for a strong civil rights
plank, arrived in Chicago to take
leading role in new battle as
civil rights proponents claimed a
majority of 654 delegates votes to
win the 1862 fight on the same
issue.
Humphrey told newsemn that he
puts country above party in his
civil rights stand. He contended
that If the Democratic party aban-
dons its winning" position, it
will commit political suicide and
revert to its spineless condition of
the 1920's.
The prediction that civil rights
proponents have 654 of the 1890
convention delegates on their side
was made by Francis Biddle, At
tcrney General in the Roosevelt
administration, who spoke as chair
man of Americans for Democratic
Action.

promise to avoid a party split.
Humphrey said a re-statement
OF the 1948 civil rights plank
would be a victory for the forces
OF liberal democracy but we want
to move forward with the inclusion
of filibuster.
The Minnesotan attacked oppon-
ents of civil rights as "Northern
Republicans who speak with a
Southern accent. He said they
ought to go back into the party
where they belong"
He said: "Some came here not
as Democrats but as political
shoppers with the door wide open
to walk in or walk out. They are
modern political carpet baggers.
There is no room for them in the
Democratic party.
The peppery Minnesotan de-
clared that Democrats face a hard
