Mistrust, fear, religious anita
gonisms and separations ride in
South Africa.
The 100000 whites, all of
whom are called Europeans, have
FULL civil rights.
The 1,938,OOO "colored", meaning
persons of mixed blood, have limit
ed civil rights.
The 100000 blacks, the $685.
900 Asiatics and the $4,000 Malays
! have by ordinary Western Stand
ards, simply no rights at all.
Speaking of Law - Even the
President of Our U. S. - is not
immune from a large daily paper
saying
president Truman lied to the
American people about steel. He
did so in a chilling speech widely
witnessed and heard. He broke the
! Constitution. He arrogated to HIM
self inherent" powers which the
Constitution specifically Denies"
Laxity In Thoughts About
Morality
1t is no longer looked upon as
a disgrace to have a baby out Of
Wedlock.
An OccupationaI Hazard-reads
another headline:
We have even developed a trend
in our country where Jail sentences
are not considered a disgrace, but
an occupational hazard. Sometimes
not even that, as the welfare
state takes care Of the family and
of course the prisoners eat we'll

Laws That Impede The Programs
| Of Business and Initiative

Federal Trade Commission whose
duty is to enforce many of these
laws has said, american Business
is Being Harassed, Bled and even
black lacked under a preposterous
crazy quilt system of laws, many
of which are unintelligible, unen-

Unions And A Six Hour A Day
Unions are beginning to talk "a
bout six hour working day even
in ordinary times when all people
are at work.
We have forgotten that we are
only six percent of the people who
live in the world and we own only
seven percent of the land in the
