-Topsy-Turvy History

10 read premier MalenkoVS version OF the
origin and conduct of the Korean war is to
wonder whether through some quirk of unkind
fate one has moved prematurely into that up
side-down, black-iS-white world which George
Orwell described for us in his book 1884"
It has been generally believed that the
Korean war began when the North Koreans
invaded South Korea, and that it assumed its
international character when the United Ma
tions decided to resist this aggression with
force. This however, is not Mr.. Malenkov's
understanding.
In his address to the Supreme Soviet he said
that the people of all the world welcome the
signing Of the armiStice in Korea with greatest
Joy and rightly regard it as victory for the
peace-loving (Communist) forces" For over
three years, he went on, the camp of peace and
democracy (communism) Strove to end the war;
and the aggreSsors (the U. N. forces) finally
were forced to bow to the will of millions for
peace. The aggressive circles" unleashed the
war in Korea in the hope Of forcing the Korean
people to their knees. But, still according to
Mr.. Malenkov, these "interventionists and their
hirelings in the syngman Rhee clique" failed
because of the invincibility of the North
Koreans, fighting in "just" cause, and because
of the noble deed" of the Chinese volunteers"
in coming to their aid.
moved on to discussion of the future role Of
the United Nations
'"The U. N.," he said, must return to the
path which has been determined by its charter
The direct duty of the u. N. consists of facili-
tating the settlement of international problems
and excluding the possibility of aggression on
the part of any member state against any other
state"
This seems to say that in the event of some
future Korea the duty of the U. NJ will be to
prevent the attacked state from resorting to
aggression against the armies of the invader
And under no circumstances should member
states of the U. N commit the criminally ag-
gressive act of going to the aid of the attacked
state which is committing aggression against
its assailant. If the U. N. will mend its ways
and accept these conditions, he said, it can
count upon the energetic support" Of the Soviet
government.
It is hard to know whether the Russian
Premier really believes this Orwellian nonsense,
or whether it is merely another case of working
overtime on the Big Lie. Perhaps it does not
matter too much, for in either event there
seems to be little reason to suppose that it will
be possible to arrive with him at any under
standing worthy of the name.

year $500 New York City high school

But high school dropout are only
one reason why official Washington is
becoming increasingly concerned about
teen-agers. Selective Service Director
Maj. Gen. Lewis B. Hershey points out
that the armed forces rejected 19 per
cent of all registrants examined during
the first year of the Korean War be-
cause they could not pass the armed
forces qualification test-largely a
literacy test.

Selective service defers high-school

Against the overwhelming man
power odds held by the iron-curtain
countries. American leadership depends
more and more on the decisions to be
made by its teen-agers.
Though Federal and State laws
limit child labor and require school
attendance, enforcement stats are
small and attendance officers take their
cue from community attitudes. After
a century of free public schools, CO.
lumbia UniverSity'S Committee on the
Nations Human Resources last year
reported that the country still has
2.5 million illiterateS. Federal officials
believe that the only effective answer
is through family and community ac-
ton.
What can parent, an employer, a
teacher. or an alert citizen do?
From the Department of Labor come
these suggestions: Encourage teen
ayers to complete high school. Insist
on proper work permits and observe
Federal and State child-labor laws.
Employ teen-agers no more than
eight hours q day, 40 hours q week.
Employ students no more than three
hours on school days.
Provide safe, healthful places to
work. Treat teen-agers with respect
and underStanding-give them good
supervision. training-and a chance to
develop on the job.
Don't deny boys at or near draft age
full opportunity for employment and
on-the-job training before they 60 into
service. Report violations of child
labor and School-attendance laws to
