EFT is ignorance of q fatal
kind which prompts the illu-
sion that free men can peace
fully co-exist with Commu-
nists," Cardinal Spellman said
addressing the national con-
vention of the American Lee
gion last week. quoting words
spoken by Dimitry Manuilsky
in 1880 to the international
students at the Lenin School
Of Political Warfare in Mos
COW:
"War to the hilt between
communism and capitalism is
inevitable. Today. Of course,
we are not strong enough to
attack. Our time will come In
20 or 80 years. -"
It Is well to be reminded OF
what ssian Communist
leaders have often said.
Marxist theorists believe.
first, that all social and polit-
ical orders except the Marxist-
Communists are doomed by in
evitable history: That a
series Of awful wars viii pre-
cede communism's triumph;
and that its triumph will issue
in the reign Of world peace
and good will forever and ever.
Amen.
Whatever outrage Commu-
nistS commit is justified by
them as necessary to the
achievement of the goal of
heaven-on-earth. It is the
combination of totalitarian or
ganization, ruthless strategy,
plus messianic purpose that
gives this movement strength.
However, the confession of
purposes Is not tantamount to
their realization. Quite a num-
Der of things have happened
since 1880 that should, we
think. compel Russia's leaders
to reconsider whether the pro-
gram then outlined by Manuil-
sky is advisable.
One thing that has hap
pened is the positive decline
Of the power of MARKHAM COM
munism to attract superior
minds, at any rate in the West.

Constantine Brown

We are having trouble with
our allies not only in Europe
but also in the Far East where
the nlercurial President Syng-
man Rhee OF South Korea
cannot suppress his hatred for
the japanese.
Mr.. Rhee has warned the
United States plblicly and in

might find it necessary to
make its own arrangements
with the Reds If the United
States insists on Japan as q
first-class military power In
the Far East.
It seems strange that some
Of our allies on whom we have
spent profusely Of American
blood and substance cannot
recognize that for reasons Of
self-preservation we must now
find assistance In the struggle
against rampant communism
among our former enemies.
Some French politicians,
such as Messrs. Pinay. Schu-
man, Laniel and Bidault. have
understood our problem and
favored the rearming Of Ger
many. But most Of the French
people can't shed their CEN
turtles : old prejudices and
fears of their neighbors across
the Rhine. They see less dam
ger in the enormous military
power Of the Russians than in
a limited German defense
force under the overall COM
mand of an American general.
In the same manner, Mr..
Rhee sees more danger to O

With such a direct inter-

doubtedly has decreed that any
palpable inequality in the Sc
lection Of the number of Negro
teachers as compared to whites
would be considered as dis
elimination if it can be proved
that Negro teachers who are
well qualified to teach are not
being given jobs they deserve.
It will be asked, for instance,
why, as the latest census fig
ures show. only three Negro
teachers were qualified in
Maine whereas 7,483 white
teachers were employed. SINH
larly, Montana has only two
Negro teachers and 5,601 white
teachers.

vided q banner to which its
people would rally. In Russian
war films made for home con-
sumption the idea Of commu-
nisrn was as notably absent
as the very un-Marxian idea
Of the holy motherland was
conspicuous.
Since 1880. also, Yugoslavia
has demonstrated that COM

cord permanently binding all
Communist states.
And. finally. the disintegra-
ton Of the atom has intro
duced an element into war
that quite changes its efficacy

Are the parents Of white
children In the north prepared
to accept an influx of Negro
teachers to take over many Of
the classrooms hitherto occu-
pied by white teachers?
This is the new problem
which the American people
face now that the full mean
ing Of the decision Of the Su-
preme Court Of the United
States has undergone further
study. For It is likely that
many Of the Negro teachers
who have been employed in
segregated schools in the South
will be displaced when inte-
grated schools. with both
whites and Negroes, are fully
established.
There are. according to the
latest United States Census
figures. 1880 Negro teachers
employed in the II Southern
and border states and the Dis
trict of Columbia, as COM
pared with 310,319 white
teachers. This is one Negro out
of each five teachers.
In the 81 so-called non-seg-
regated States. there are only
1929 Negro teachers. as COM
pared with 22.487 white
teachers. This is a ratio of one
Negro teacher out of each 70
teachers.
Careful reading of the Su-
preme Court decision would
seem to indicate that any such
ratio Of employment in the
North as between white and
Negro teachers could be held
to be discrimination. mas.
