New School Boundaries

Announcement of the new school
boundaries is one of the simpler steps In
connection with ending segregation in the
schools But 1t is good thing to have that
step behind us, instead of waiting for the
information until sometime next fall
In view of the policy of permitting, in
80 far as possible, children now enrolled in
the schools to stay where they are until
graduation, the boundaries do not of them
selves mean extensive, immediate transfers.
That policy, in The Stars opinion, is wise
one. An integrated school system, to all in
tents and purposes, will be in effect next
September. But an attempt to make it I'M
nlediately complete, by arbitrary changes
wrought by boundaries, would be apt to
cause unnecessary confusion. We are NOV
Ing pretty quickly, as it is, into situation
that is not yet clear, and which poses about
as many questions as 1t answers.

A review Of Man and Superman" in

rival as one Of the foremost OF literary
creators In English is now generally
acknowledged, is too much of prop

not great drama. It is too devoid Of
action ever to succeed on the boards.
It is, however, a fine example Of Mr.,
Shaw's best work In the creation Of
reading plays and as a satire 1t will be
chiefly welcomed and most highly en-
joyed. That the author himself en-

shown In the dedicatory epistle: J

Nebrosko's Vacancies

The death Of the kindly Senator Hugh
Butler, coming so soon after the death OF
Senator Dwight Griswold, has created an
extraordinary situation for Republicans in
Nebraska. They now have two vacancies
to I'LL in the upper house, and the indica-
lions are that there may be an intraparty
scramble that could be very favorable to
the Democrats.
Although Nebraska has had a G.. o. p.
senatorial delegation for many years past,
Mr.. Griswold's death has led to situation
In which no fewer than eight Republicans
have filed to run against each other for
nomination to the vacancy in next months

unless there are Withdrawals beforehand,
1t is possible that the vote win be so split
as to give victory to the least appealing

observers, the Democratic candidate who
is expected to be the able and popular
former Governor Keith Neville-may well
win the Senate race In November.

The Antarctic is known to have much
J unexplored land that can be claimed for
our country, some of which may be rich
in mineral deposits and many other dis
coverieS Of ineStiMable value can accrue
from such an undertaking.
The expedition would be headed by
Capt. Finn Rome, U. S. N. r., who is
one OF the greatest living polar ex-
plorerS. He was member Of Admiral
Richard E. Byrd's two expeditions to
the Antarctic in 1933-35 and l939-4l,
and was also lin full command Of the
1947-48 expedition to the Antarctic
which produced invaluable scientific
data for the United States Government.
His father, Martin Rome, accompanied
the famous Norwegian polar explorer.

team to the South Pole in 1902, and
also accompanied Amundsen during

1t seems to me that a scientific prof.

under such able leadership and at 60
little cost to the taxpayers is well
worthy Of our wholehearted support.
We should indeed be thankful that
there are men of the stature Of Capt.
Rome with enough daring and courage
to offer risking their lives in ventures
of this nature for the projection OF
scientific knowledge Of inestimable
value to the United States Government.

Air Power VS.. Foot Sloeeers

Does Gen. Hoge think he is fooling
any one with those statements quoted
In your June % editorial page feature?
For instance this one: 1--WE keep hear
ing that the new weapons will make 1t
possible for us to reduce the size of
armies, but there Is absolutely nothing
to prove that this can be done in any
marked degree"
What about the small group Of 125
men that took over Japan in place of
the Enthusiastically large invasion force
originally planned prior to the final
success of the Air Forces bombing? OF
this nloinentouS event Admiral Sherman
said: "The situation In which one Of
the major military powers of the world
is brought to defeat without defeat of
its army is unparalleled in history and
creates problems which have to be
solved without the guidance of past ex-
perience." Yet Gen. Hoge insists he has
never seen any proof that we can win
war; that way. In fact, he even
claims: 'sTae only way to win any
war Is to occupy land and subjugate
the people there" He says that as If
citing some natural law, but ignores
the capitulation of Japan to air power
before the 125-man invasion.
The last straw. however. is this
classic gem from the generals lips:
Despite the talk Of wonder weapons.
the principles Of war remain today the
same as in the days Of the club and
the spear"
He is welcome to his club and spearl
AS for me and mine. we will take air
power and the wonder weapons, inef-
fective though Gen. Hoge may con-
slider them to be.

Dubious at Best

Although it reflects an understandable
sentiment, and although President Eisen-
hover has been advised that its adoption
probably would be all right, the Vorys pro-
vision in the House approved foreign aid
bill could well be excised by the Senate as
piece Of legislative surplusage that we can
do without. ,stf,
The proviSion-tacked on as an amend
ment-declares that ''the sense of the
Congress is that none of our economic or
military aid "Shall be used on behalf OF
governments which are committed by treaty
to maintain Communist rule over any de-
fined territory of Asia" AS explained by
its sponsors, the proposed restriction is
aimed against possible Locarno-like nom
aggression pacts that might have the effect
Of recognizing, supporting or perpetuating
the status quo in countrieS-suc as Korea
or Indo- China-now dominated In whole or
in part by the Red totalitarians.
Up to point, this view represents
natural reaction to some rather loose re-
ports about how Britain and certain of our
other friends and allies are anxious to ne
gotiate d kind OF "selI-outn deal with the
Communists. But the reports are highly
questionable especially as regards the
British government, which has committed
itself against becoming "a party to any
agreement that would confirm or prolong
the Suhjugation of once-sovereign states
now held in bondage behind the Iron Cur
tain.s Further, 1t is worth noting that pacts
Of the Locarno type, even though altogether
unprOmising, would not necessarily be bad
In themselves.
Beyond all this, the Vorys provision Is
at best q thing Of dubious wisdom because
1t would play into the hands Of the Com
munist propagandiSts. It would do so by
lending itself to the grossest kind of mis-
representation as an example Of Imperial
istic" American pressure being brought to
bear In order to force other nations to fol-
low a particular policy-or else Certainly,
viewed In that sense, 1t could be exploited
to stir up considerable mischief against US
In the free part of Asia. Moreover, to be
realistic about 1t, we extend our aid pri-
nnarily to help ourselves; tt Is not mere
altruistic largesse which we can afford to
shut on whenever we feel that some recipi-
emit ought to be punished" for not COM
pletely agreeing with US
Everything considered, therefore, the
Senate will be acting wisely II 1t votes
down the Vorys amendment. For the
amendment, though aforementioned, can
serve no useful purpose, and conceivably
despite the assurances given the President
its adoption could boomerang seriously
against Us.
