Red China Swo||owinq Korea
Indignation Into Mao Empire Continuing at a Pace
Which Has Begun to Alarm u S Government

The indignation of North
Korea into the Chinese Red
empire is continuing at a pace
which has begun to alarm our
Government.
Tens of thousands of Chi
nese workers" are being i'm
ported into North Korea while
North Korean citizens are
being transferred, by force
when necessary. to the remote
confines of China such as the
Province of Sinkiang.
Sinkiang, once mostly a pas
toral land inhabited mainly by
nomad tribes, has become in
the last few years one of the
principal keys to Red mill
tarism. 1t is one of the centerS
of industrial dispersion of the
Red arsenalS. According to
some reliable reports. impor-
tant deposits of uranium have
been discovered.
Sinkiang is fast losing it's
nomad = land characteristics.
New towns with permanent
populations are being created.
1t is in this area that many
North Koreans are being set
tied while their places at home
are being taken by Chinese
from all parts of the empire.
According to reports from
Seoul this mass movement of
population is alarming the
South Korean government
more than the continuous
strengthening of the military
position of the enemy. Ever
since the North Korean inva-
sion of June 81. 1850, the aim
of the Korean government and
later of the allies who inter-
vened in the war to suppress
the aggression has been the
unif1cation of the country on
both sides of the 38th Parallel
through free elections super
vised by the United Nations.
Such free elections were or
dered after World War II. I'm

A commission has been in

by substantial amounts. Most
Of the witnesses favored it
vigorously. 1t is generally
recognized that Government
pay at the topmost levels is
grossly inadequate.
Congress has always been
fearful of raising it's own pay.
1t may be just as fearful when
the proposal is tied to help for
the judiciary. Perhaps all
good men should also notify
Congress that the laborer is
worthy of his hire.

was entirely subordinated to
the Chinese staff of officers
who in turn received technical
advice from Soviet officers
whose presence in large num-
bers was noticeable not only
in China but also in Korea.
But in order to make Korea
into another province. it was
necessary to remove the bulk
of the remaining population to
the remoteSt portions of China.
The Koreans have always been
violently nationalistic. During
the so years of japanese inte-
grafton, the Tokyo government
was able to handle the upper
strata of Koreans by educat-
ing them in universities and
military schools in Japan. But
Tokyo had continuous trouble
with the masses.
The Chinese know that re-
CARELESS of how much influ-
ence they may gain by force in
the peninsula they will have
eventually to reckon with the
independent spirit of the Ko-
reanS. Hence the best way to
eliminate this inevitable dam
ger is the uprooting of the
population and its transfer to
distant regions away from
home where nationalism and a
fierce spirit of independence is
necessarily bred.
Talks for a political confer
ence have yielded no results
after six months. Though the
fighting has ceased. we are no
nearer peace parleys than we
were last year or the year be-
fore. If perchance a formal
conference agreement is signed
the ensuing peace negotia-
tions are likely to last an
indefinite time-long enough
to enable the enemy to COM
plete the gigantic transfer Of
populations and claim that
North Korea, at least. is o
Chinese inhabited land.

Equo|izing Mississippi Schools
State Begins to Garry Out 800 Amendment Calling
For Equal and Separate Facilities for Negroes

The State of Mississippi is
in the process of making a
confession.
Through, its Legislature, it is
recognizing the sharp criticism
by its own Governor, Hugh L.
White, of it's school facilities
for Negro children. On Christ
mas eve the Legislature COM
pleted action on a number of
laws designed to provide
schools that are equal to,
though separate from, those
for white children, as we'll as
improving the educational
plant of the State generally.
What Mississippi is doing is,
of course, a direct result of
something going on here be-
fore the United States Supreme
Court.
She was prompted to act by
the several cases brought be-
fore the Nations highest tri-
bunal, and supported by the
Eisenhower administration and
its Justice Department. seek
ing to end segregation in pub
lie schools and. with that, to
put an end to the doctrine
that separate and equal"
facilities meet the require
ments of the 14th amendment
to the Constitution adopted
just after the Civil War.
Mississippi hopes that the
court will sustain the separate
and equal" rule hitherto in
effect. Lawyers for Southern
States argued recently before
the court that this is in keep
ing with the declaration in the
14th amendment that no State
shall deny to any person with
in its jurisdiction the equal
protection of the laws" On
the other hand, the Justice
Department and counsel in the
segregation cases contend that
this declaration requires an
end to segregation since segre-
cation denies equality.
Mississippi hopes to influ-
ence the court by exhibiting all
intention to provide equal.

Gov. White likewise has that
in mind in promoting his pro-
gram and getting it onto the
statute books as early as pos
sible.

in improving school facilities
for its Negro children. Indeed.

order to get more information
on certain points.
The decision is not expected
for some time. The court can
not legislate, only assert prin-
ciples of law to which our peo-
pie must accommodate them
selves. 1t has been suggested
that, if it rules out segregation,
it might give the States where
segregation exists a period of
time in which to comply with
the decision. If it should stand
on the old separate and
equal doctrine, then States
which now do not provide
equal facilities-some in fact
nothing approaching that
must do what Mississippi al
ready has done; and that, too,
will take time.

Agreeable 10 EASING
Of Excess Profits Tax
BY the Assoeioted Press

President Eisenhower was re-
ported to have told legislative
leaders today he is willing to

But the President was said to
have insisted at a White House
conference with the leaders that
he would approve such action
only if sponsors of the measure
believed they would not be

other amendments.
May Raise Exemptions.
In the form approved by the
House, the measure would ex-
empt only $4,000 of excess
profits, as defined by the law,
from the high levies. Senator
Sparkman, Democrat, of Ala
bama. has said he will give the
Senate a chance to vote on rails
