FEPC Issue
John Barr.

The Presidents belated stand on segre-
cation is to be applauded. but it is un-
fortunate that it comes at time when
he is practically closing out his affairs.
Whatever merits Gen. Eisenhower may
have as presidential candidate, and
they are few, were nullified by the gen.
erals statement that he would leave the
question of FEPC up to the States. Such
an attitude throws us back to the dark
period of the Civil War, when brother
was arrayed against brother, and the
South, in order to defend an illogical
stand on slavery, had to raise conscript
army of poor whites at the point of
gun, exactly as was done in Germany
under Kaiser Wilhelm and Adolf Hitler.
Any presidential candidate who puts
human rights and the Constitution aside
for the mere espousal Of regional preju-
dices and slave labor is unworthy of the
office Americans should be proud to be
Americans first, and Southerners, East
erners, Westerners or New Englanders
second. Love of ones country and gov
ernment does not permit of qualifica-
tions that take into consideration your
neighbor's skin pigment, religion or po-
litical affiliation. We are rapidly de-
generating into a nation of malcontents.

Robert Alfonso will restore government

pledges no me-tooism. He guarantees
constitutional government with plain

Me-ism claims no gift of prophecy.
It's great contribution to national security
and survival is hindsight. Me-ism is
founded on visions divinely revealed, the
morning after the night before. They are
no hallucinations or delirium tremens.
The sacred teachings of me-ism have
always declared Hitler and Stain were

anointed voted against lend-lease.

against adoption Of the Selective Serv-
ice Act and extension OF the period Of

against NATO and the equal sacrifices

There is absolutely no me-tooims in me-
ism. It is salvation from the heavens

Son. And ii is democracy by default.
Let all dupes hail the divine rights and
power of me-ism. It's messiah can cast

John Dewey and Humunism

In your obituary notice of John
Dewey, dean of American philosophers.
you stressed his important work in edu-
cation, but you omitted to mention his
equally important work in philosophy,
which made him the foremost American
exponent of humanism.
For any one unfamiliar with the term,
it may be explained in his own words
as "a system of thought based on expe-
rience Gas opposed to dogma and tradi-
tion), as the ultimate authority in
knowledge and conduct"
In other words. humanism holds that
we must rely on our own efforts and
those of our fellow men to solve our
problems,

At the time. he recalls, Gov.

attracting a good deal of atten-

the proposed return of captured
Confederate flags: "No rebel flags
will be returned while I am Gov

to return the flags later, however,
Mr. Smith said.

On the other hand, reorganiza-

ity is a much quicker method and
forces Congressional action, either
pro or con. Congress still has a
chance to block any plan. but it
automatically becomes law within
so days unless either the House
or Senate vetoes it. In the House,
it would take 218 dissenting votes
(the majority of the 435 men,

withins60 days of its submission by
the White House, it goes into
effect.
President-elect Eisenhower and
his advisers have let it be known
that they want such authority
extended after March 81 when
the present powers cease, either
through extending these powers
or by making them permanent.
Mr.. Hoffman, a strong-willed
legislator who has been a bitter
critic of the New Deal and Fair
Deal administrations but has also
differed with his own party on
occasions. declared that such re-
organization authority is uncon-
stitutional. He said it bypasses the
authority rightfully belonging to
Congress.
If an department or agency
needs to be reorganized, it should
be done in the proper way through
regular legislation. The other way
usurpS Congress authority in such
matters" Mr.. Hoffman said.
II suppose the newspapers will
say that I am opposed to Gen.
Eisenhower because I don't want
to give him these powers" Mr..
Hoffman added. We'll, this isn't
so. I have nothing against Gen.
Eisenhower and I want to work
with him. But reorganization
should be done the proper way."I
Intra-Party Fight.
Mr.. Hoffman's opposition prom
ises to stir up a lively intra-party
fight among Republicans on his
committee over the legislation.
It's certain that most of the Re-
publicans on the group will sup
port the new President on the
matter and will seek to override
their chairman.
The argument against achieving
reorganization through the regular
legislative process is that it takes
too long and is subject to too
many hazards along the road to
