Offensive Commercials

It is high time the churches wake up
and start doing something about al
cohol-its advertising and consump-
ton here. We have shocking drink
ing rate in Washington.
Church members and clear-thinking
people have become far too compla-
cent about drinking-so-called social
drinking, the kind that has been the
beginning for many a permanently
marred alcoholic, filled many penal
and psychiatric institutions, wrecked
many marriages and homes, left thou
sands of mangled corpses and automo-
biles by the roadSides. These are not
pretty pictures. Alcohol can't produce
one except in it's advertising. That's
where we must act. We cannot sit by
and watch while the more popular TV
programs are taken over by sponsors of
alcoholic beverages.
The church must act, and here is an
opportunity. There is bill coming
up in Congress that must have our
support. It is H. r. 1927. ITO prohibit
the transportation in interstate COM
merce of advertisements of alcoholic
beverages and for other purposes"

But the quarterly conference of the
church refused to pay more than $780,
900, and the architect, Appleton P.
Clarke, was requested to change his
drawings so as to bring construction
costs below that figure. Mr.. Prescott
was told to "take over" when five COM

Old Tune Amid the Cooinq

Andret ViShtnSky has changed somewhat
since being deposed as Soviet Foreign Minister
after Stalin's death. In his new role as chief
Russian delegate to the United Nations, and in
keeping with the Malenkov regimes so-called
peace offensive, he has stopped breathing fire
and cutting loose with vituperation Now he
speaks rather mildly, rather temporarily, with
out inveighing against the United States or
heaping invective on American "warmongers"
This change Is certainly refreshing one.
Unfortunately, however, it seems much too
limited to warrant the hope that it may be
Symptomatlc OF fundamental revision in the
long standing Soviet policy of dominance-See
Ing subverSion and aggression. In the past
couple Of weeks, with the post-Stalin Kremlin
brandishing one olive branch after another,
there has appeared at times to be evidence of
some such revision in the making. But the
evidence looks mighty thin and dubious at the
moment At any rate, in his latest remarks to
the General Assembly, Mr.. Vishinsky-even
though speaking with his new untypical mild
ness-has given voice to tune that falls far
short of justifying optimism.
The tune is an old and hackneyed one. It is
made up of what the Soviet Union under Stain,
and now under Malenkov, has chosen to call
peace plan" This "plan"-repeatedly rejected
by the United Nations-would require the
United States and the free world in general to
agree to the following things among others:
% A one-third arms cut that would leave
Russia superior to all other powers (2) i'm
mediate prohibition of atomic weapons without
prior guarantees establishing effective interna-
tional control against the hazards of violations
and evasions; 90 dissolution of the North At
lantic Treaty Organization; a. abandonment
of efforts to create the European Defense Com
munity in which West Germany would partici-
- I~~,tn- - ,;zk
into U. N. membership.
In other words, Mr.. Vishinsky has called
again for peace plan" that would have the
effect of wrecking the free worlds defenses and
paving the way for the Kremlin's mastery of the
globe. Small wonder that American Delegate
Ernest Gross, in response to it, has exhorted the
Western powers to hold fast to their crucial eff
fort to build up their common political, eco
nomc and military strength.

dignity and all rights. He exists for
the state, which can use him as it de-
sires for It's advantage. It can put him
on a pedestal or send him to slave
camp. It can torture and kill him,
without trial, If he even appears to
question its authority.
Archbishop Temple. one Of the great
est church leaders Of our generation,
thus summed up the difference between
the two systems: 1.-THE great and pro-
found difference between Christian
civilization and the kind of civilization
which the Communists are aiming at
lies in our affirmation that the primary
fact of the world is God, that each
individual is the child of God, that at
the root of his being he is a child of
God, and that he is child before he
is citizen of any national commu-
nifty"
And then, Of course. out Of these
sharp differences grows the yaWning
gulf separating divergent conceptions
of morality. Christianity asserts that
there is a moral law which comes from
God, Who is the sovereign Of the uni
verse. Justice and truth and love have
absolute claims for obedience. But the
Red teaching Is that morality is any,
thing which serves to destroy an enemy.
Lenin declared: ut is necessary to use
any ruSe, cunning, unlawful methods,

Completing a Strong Commission

The careful thought which President EiSen-
hover has been giving to providing strong
leadership for the civil service system is evil
denced anew in the nomination Of Frederick
]. Lawton as third member of the Civil Service
Commission. Mr.. Lawton is an ideal choice for
the Democratic vacancy resulting from the
resignation of Miss Frances Perkins. His ap-
pointment will round out a commission destined
for a more important role than ever before in
Federal personnel selection and management
The CSC now has been completely re-
organized. The reorganization affects not only
the top membership of the agency but its flu
ture responsibilities in developing the merit
system. Its new chairman, Philip Young, has
been designated chief civil service adviser to
the President. AS such he will attend all cabinet
meetings. The other new member is George
M Moore, long an adviser Of Congress on civil
service problems.
Mr. Lawton, native Washingtonian, has
been a career civil servant most Of his adult
lfe Even before his graduation from George
town University at 10 he had held vacation
jobs in several Federal agencies Upon gradua-
ton he accepted permanent civil service ap-
pointment with the Treasury Department.,
where he remained until 1885. Then he was
transferred to the Budget Bureau, where he
began a long career as assistant to successive
budget directors. He served as budget director
from 1850 until the new administration took
over, when he again was made assistant to the
director. During all of this budget service, Mr..
Lawton specialized in civil service matters. Few
persons in or out of the Government are as well
informed on Federal personnel policies and
procedures His promotion to membership on
the Civil Service Commission Is well merited.

Problem for a Just Man

President Eisenhower said the other day
that he felt Secretary of Commerce Weeks
would not be arbitrary or unjust in the enforced
resignation of DR.. A. v. Astin, director of the
Bureau of Standards.
There are others who share the Presidents
good opinion Of Mr.. Weeks. That is one reason
to hope that in the light of developing circum-
stances the Secretary will reconsider acceptance
of the Astin resignation and request that DR..
Astin remain in his post until the completion
Of pending Investigations That would be the
act Of a just man.
Consider these facts:
On March 81, Mr.. Weeks said that DR.. Astin's
resignation had been asked for and would be
accepted He said the National Bureau of
Standards has not been sufficiently objective
because they discount entirely the play of the
market place" He said the firm manufacturing
the controversial battery additive "has suffered
severely at the hands of certain bureaucratS"
Dr. Astin's removal, he and his assistant, Craig
Shaeffer, said, was due to a number of reasons
the battery episode being merely one of them.
No other reason, however, has been given.
week ago, Mr.. Weeks had kilograms dis
patched to a number of institutions asking for
the loan of distinguished scientists to make an
evaluation of the Bureau of Standards policies
and performance. This investigation may re-
quire some time, and no date has been an
nounced for its beginning.
On Thursday of last week, Chairman Thye
of the Senate'S Small Business Committee, after
lengthy consideration, announced that his COM
mittee would investigate and hold public hear
ings on the dismissal of Dr. Astin giving him
a chance to tell his side of the story.
But DR.. Astin's resignation becomes effec-
tive April 10. In other words, he has been con-
victed and punished before the start of any
investigation which might prove that he is
wholly innocent of the grave implications of
Secretary Weeks public statement. That state
ment is a serious reflection on the integrity of
DR.. Astin and of the Bureau of Standards.
If DR.. AStin is removed in advance of these
pending Investigations, it will represent an arb-
trary and unjust action. II Secretary Weeks is
neither arbitrary nor unjust he cannot
permit it.

Residents of the District in the areas
adjacent to the bus and streetcar ter
minal at Georgia and Alaska avenues
are wondering If anything is to be done
toward relieving the residential sec
tions there from involuntary duty as
public parking lots.
Marylanders drive their cars to this
area, park them by the block length
in front of houses and take bus or
streetcar to work.
The situation is aggravated by the
fact that Silver Spring, Md. just across
the Eastern avenue district line, has
installed parking meters which drive
the Maryland cars into the District
It might be noted that Maryland
residents who make their living in the
District pay no taxes to the District,
but District residents who work in
Maryland are required to pay taxes in
Maryland as well as in the District.
