macher he was a concentration
camp prisoner of the Hitlerites

Grotewohl's seductions, he also

His aggressive disdain for the
hypocrisies of communism gives
him a positive philosophy about

ton.
The resolution said the public

bia ARE organized on the basis

proved unable to provide an ade-
quate education for white or
Negro child"
These schools" the resolution
added, "are undemocratic, un-
constitutional, unequal, wasteful,
not required by law, contrary to
Judaic-Christian morality and
ethics, and in conflict with the
treaty obligations of the United
States with the United Nations. Z"

a peace platform approved amid
arguments over how it would be
regarded, in the light of Com
munist peace drives.

Stevenson Faces Quiz

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, Aug. 23.-
Gov. Adlai Stevenson faced q

Gov. Allan Shivers on whether
he favors Federal or State control
Of the Nations rich Off shore oil
deposits.
Gov. Shivers was due here this
morning for conference with
the Democratic presidential NOM

political repercussions in Texas
and other States fighting for con-
troll OF their So-called tidelands
oil resources.
Returns From Vacation.
Gov. Stevenson returned to his
headquarters here last night from
a three-day rest in the seclusion
OF a friends home in Minocqua,

The Voice Of America, ofIicia,

that this may be Stains motive
in calling Communist bosses to.
gether for the first time in l:
years. It was the first thing an.
proximating any official comment
from the State Department on
this move by Stain.
A broadcast commenting or
Moscow's announcement said OF
the 139 full Central Committee
members:
"At least 26 have Gin the past
13 years. died or been purged
Another "a have not been men

"This indicates the high mortal
ity rate-political as well as literal
attached to membership in the
Central Committee.
The Central Committee is the
top-rank organization of Com
munists elected at each party
congress. It. in turn, elects the
12-man Politburo which actually
runs Russia.
The Voice broadcast, q special
commentary by Analyst Harry

and Iron Curtain countries and
was featured in nearly all foreign

"The Soviet Union will remain

May Indicate Successor.
Moscow has announced that a
"praesidium" will be organized
to replace the Politburo. Top
diplomats believe whoever gets
the job of chairman of this group
will be in line to succeed Stain
as Prime Minister.
The Voice broadcast made no
of this. Some American
experts believe the whole con-
gress meeting has been called by
Stain so he can give this job to
Georgi Malenkov. fat-cheeked
Politburo member.
Malenkov, a 50-year-old party
wheelhorSe, is scheduled to give
the main address before the 1900
lower-echelon Communists who
will attend the congress sessions.
The highlights of the last con-
gress meeting in 1899 was a
speech by Stain which accused
the West Of trying to foment a
war between Nazi Germany and
Soviet Russia.
This statement turned out to
be of great significance" said the
