Race Is not the crux Of the mat
ter but Is used as q sham to con-
fuse the whole population TO hide
the vicious labor exploitation Of
the African by the Beers, Bishop
Reeves stated.
African Iron Curtain
The African worker labors I'M
der conditions that are compar-
able to those behind the Iron Cur
tain.
II he leaves his Job for any
reason. he L. subject to q stiff
prison term. In addition he must
carry passes on his person at all
times 50 that he can move about
from home to work and any place
that he In permitted TO 60.
There Is a strong feeling Of ma
tionalism and anu-white senti-
ment growing among the Africans
and they look upon the govern
ment as Christian" because Of
the Nationalist party's close ties
with the Dutch Reformed church
that believes In rigid segregation.
Because the average African
looks upon government as Chris
tian. the Anglican church is find
ing itself In the position where
II will be forced TO take q more
positive stand against the Nation
anst party. II II wants to continue
TO reach more Africans and keep
the African membership II al
ready has.
There Is more than a fifty-fifty
chance that this clash between the
two denominations may come out
In the open at the World Council
OF churches when II meets next
week In Evanston, I'll.
The Anglican church will have
Bishop Reeves serving on the race
committee OF the council and the
Dutch Reformed church will have
a representative from South Afri-
ca on the committee also.
South Africa Is very sensitive to
outside criticism and imposes a
very rigid censorship on incoming
and outgoing letters. magazines.
newspapers and other media.
Up until the U. 8. Supreme
courts decision outlawing segre-
cation in public schools the South
African government would point
with pride to America, a world
leader, and cite the Jim Crow
practices OF the South.
The press OF South Africa gave
the decision a lot Of coverage, but
since that time the government
has become more sensitive TO criti-
cism.
This Is probably dur to the fact
that they feel somewhat alone now
that their chief support has pulled
the props from under them.
Because Of the stiff penalties OF
the Public Safety Act. one Of the
daily papers In johannesburg
keeps three attorneys who do no
thing but edit all Of the news and
editorials so that they won't pub
lish anything that would violate
the Public Safety Act.
Bishop Reeves said that he does |
not know how much longer he will |
be able TO continue.
He said that because Of the tire
mendous amount OF pressure he is
under and human frailties. he may |
blow up someday and do some
thing drastic or knuckie under the
pressure and remain silent.

'CottIe Queen On

ern filmed by RKO last July neal
Parks east side was last Tuesday
in Billings.
"Cattle Queen of Montana" will
be shown at the Park theatre in
Columbia Falls Sunday, Monday

bara Stanwyck and Ronald Reagan
with Chubby Johnson, Gene Ev-
ans and Tony Caruso among those
with supporting roles.
Miss Stanwyck plays Sierra
Nevada Jones, who stays to fight
for the domain her late father
had staked out. The story isn't
based on history, but combined
with good scenery, name stars and
an action plot makes a credible
western.
This time the. Hollywood crews
have some real Indians in their
western. Tony Caruso has the
leading Indian role, but the rest

Find Dr.. Buin Guilty
in Greet Falls Court

MARTIN CITY-Creating con-
siderable interest in Martin City
was the trial of DR.. Alan R. Balm
who was found guilty in Great
Falls of practicing medicine with
out a license.
Balm owned a building at the
top of Martin City's hill where he
gave treatments and had Swedish
baths. He had also been located
in Kalispell
The building burned down, and
Balm went on the road with a
Montana color motion picture. He
had the endorsements of school
officials, ministers and others on
the wildlife pictures which he OBJ
tanned and showed locally and
through the Midwest.
About six weeks ago, there was
a story in the Great Falls Tribune
Of Balm seeking $4,000 fire insur-
ance as a result of the Martin
City building burning down.
The well-publicized Balm trial in
Great Falls saw a jury finding of
guilty. The Great Falls Tribune
story in part was: Alan R. Balm,
"health way" practitioner, was
found guilty Tuesday by Dist
rict Court jury of practicing med
icine without license and the jury
fixed the penalty as a $3.50 fine.
Judge ]. w. Speer will pronounce
sentence Saturday morning.
The verdict was returned after
45 minutes of deliberation and
ended a trial that started Mon
lay. Balm could have been sentenc-
ed from 80 days to one year in
Jail, fined from $3.50 to $1,000 or
both.

COMMENTS ON SCHOOL RULING

1T is a sweeping and axcit-
ing victory for minority groups.
and it is an important victory
for all mankind everywhere.
Truth and human rights are
universal and ti1nelesS, and they
have been marching forward.
The court had to make it's
decision on lsgal matters, but
had it E fallen the other way
cur enemies would have ex-
plotted that unfortunate defeat
of human rights in every area
Of the world. We would have
suffered tremendous losses in
the battle of ideas"
CLIO President Walter P.
Reuther: THE unanimous de-
cision of the Supreme Court
outlawing racial segregation in
the schools is a heartwarming
reaffirmation of the American
democratic principles that are
inherent in the 14th Amend
ment to the Constitution. Gas
a result of this historic deci-
sion, children of every minority
in the United States will receive
direct and substantial benefits,
and, in turn, a greater share
in our democracy"
CLIO Secretary Treasurer
James B. Carey: The historic
decision of the Supreme Court
that racial segregation in pub
lie schools is unconstitutional
is another important step to-
ward securing the con-stitu-
tional guarantees of equal pro-
lection under our laws for al
citizens. This decision repre-
Sents the official recognition o.
