every organization, every ac-
tivity of the population. often
concealing their Communist
connections and taking lead
ing part in the determination
of local public opinion.
The organization drive is
difficult to measure at first
glance. There are no exhort-
ers, no statesmen urging pass
ers-by to sign up with the
party. That is not a Commu-
mist tactic at all. Instead, the
district organizers look around
for young progressive leaders.
for active, ambitious and able
men and women who exhibit
the characteristics Of popular
appeal. These hopefuls are
then tested out by faithful
party members whose member
ship is concealed while they
cultivate the friendship and
trust of the chosen candidate.
When the party contact
man gives a favorable report,
then and not until then, the
candidate. well-softened. is
eased into the party ranks and
is set to work on others of his
fellows who show promise.
In this way the Communist
conspiracy builds a solid, we'll
engineered base Of operations
among the masses of the
people, ready for the day when
the Kremlin decides to use it.
Almost no other nation in
the world offers such fertile
fields for Red planting as does
Nehru's India. Incredible pow.
erty is the rule. not the ex-
ception. Hunger, and outright
starvation on the streets and
in the miserable huts of the
countryside, are present al
ways. Endemic diseases of all
sorts are widespread. The

| Apparently. they will be able
to operate their schools on the
traditional racially segregated
basis for the coming year. There
seemed little doubt. however,
that q showdown will come,
possibly in another year, unless

A three-judge Federal Court
told the trustees here yesterday
that they will have time to make

segregation. but after that they
will be enjoined from refusing
because of race to admit any
pupil to any school.
Reorganization Survey
| The trustees, who have an
lnounced they will close the
schools rather than mix white
fand Negro pupils, said through
an attorney that they plan q
comprehensive survey" of the
question of reorganizing the
school system on a non-segre-
gated basis. This study. they
said, will be made by the Uni

Mr., Figg failed to get the
courts specific approval for the
trustees to operate the schools
on Z the traditional segregated
basis next year.
Judge John j, Parker, senior
member of the court, said he did
not think it necessary ito ap-

House Committee Wants to Know What

Most timely is a House in
vestigation opening next week
into Federal regulatory COM
missions to try to find out what
is happening IN these sup
posedly independent agencies
created. by Congress to protect
the public.
Singularly enough, Repre-
sentative Joe L. EvinS, Demo-
crat of Tennessee, who will
direct this inquiry by a House
Small Business subcommittee.
turns out to be prophetic in
light of recent dramatic de-
velopments in a Senate COM
mittee investigation conducted
by a fellow Tennessean, Sena-
tor Estes Kefauver. Months
ago, on February 23.. Mr.. Evins.
in a statement about his plans
and objectives in his investiga-
ton, said: t
IF it proves to be true. as
we frequently hear, that these
supposedly independent COM
missions have become political
puppets on telephone wires
leading from the White House.
or from a political committee.
then it is time we made the
facts known"
In the same statement, in
concluding. he referred to re
cent actions and decisions by
the Securities and Exchange
Commission in it's handling of
the Dixon-Yates financing ar
rangements" and other SEC
actions which, he said, require
an investigation into that COM
mission.
That was February %. Well,
we have learned this week
about a White House tele-
phone call toe q commission.
Lo, it happened to be the SEC.
Lo, also. it happened to be
about the Dixon-Yates case.
The man at the White House

other than Sherman Adams,

13, as originally scheduled, he

later, about how he was serv-
ing the Budget Bureau as con-
sultant on iva and on the
Dixon Yates contract while
still an official Of the First

utility underwriting house,
which handled financing ar
rangements for the Dixon
Yates contract, now cancelled.
The story would have come out
in time for members of the
House of Representatives to
know about it before they had
to vote on funds for trans
mission lines for the Dixon
Yates plant which Democrats
were seeking to cut of. But,
when the SEC postponed its
hearings as Mr.. Adams had
asked, the House did not get
that story which, Democrats
claim, would have changed
votes. They lost in their effort
to deny funds for the trans
mission lines.
The Sherman Adams pres
sure from the White House
came out this week before the
Kefauver Senate committee
investigating Dixon Yates.
This incident illuminates q
basic reason for the Evins in
vestigation. For, as the Ten
nessee House member points
out. the regulatory commits
sions are arms of Congress
and not beholden to the Ex-
ecutive., One after another,
beginning in 1887 with the In
terstate Commerce Commits
sion, they were created by
Congress to handle admins
tration of regulatory laws.
Regulation is the function of
Congress imposed by the Con-
stitution; but, with the rapid
development of our economy,
Congress found itself unable
to handle the endless intrica-
cies and details of regulation.
and so delegated commissions
to do this detail work for it..
How the attitude of the
commissions themselves has
changed was indicated by
Chairman Armstrong before
the Kefauver committee.

servience to Sherman Adams
at the White House, but in his

The question of whether Z

just crawl-space is still being
argued.
Our own opinion Is, that mas.
much as we no longer have tt
store 10 tons of coal in the eel
lar. or make room for barrels
of potatoes, apples or flour. the
crawl space is the ideal plan fol
the modern home. We believe
that an ell, or utility room above
ground is far better than twice
the space below ground.
The United States Govern
ment has made an intensive
study of this question. and come
up with some very interesting
facts and figures which appear to
bear us out.

cal bulletin issued by the Divi-

Robert Benchley-one time
decided to raise flowers. With
the zeal of the amateur, he
purchased packets and pack
cts of seeds and truckload
of expensive equipment. Day
after day, he watched over
his garden lovingly, if not
expertly.
Then one morning he was
rewarded by the sight of
blooming flowers. Bursting
with excitement, he showed
the garden to a friend.
Look at these beautiful
howers!" he exclaimed. And
I raised them all by myself"
Not bad" commented the
friend. but what are theSe?"
He pointed to several bare
patches from which nothing
but a few green leaves en-
erged.
"Oh, those" said Benchley,
thinking quickly. They're

He made all 10 tricks on this
hand, but declined to bid fur
Their after Mrs. Keen's powerful
jump to four spades.
Mr.. Abel led the king of hearts
and Mr.. Meek won with the ace
on the board. He paused to
check the situation over. Unless
all five outstanding spades were
in one opponents hand he had
10 tricks in straight leads-four
spades, five diamonds and a
heart.
: He thought about a cross
ruff. He knows, of course, that
the first thing to do when plan
ming a cross-ruf is to cash your
quick side suit winners. He saw
that If he could cash two dia-
mond tricks he could then cross
ruff clubs and hearts for eight
more tricks. These, with the ace
of hearts, would make a total
of II tricks.
But wait. If neither opponent
had a singleton diamond there
was a good chance to take all
the tricks. So Mr.. Meek played
in the following manner:
After winning the opening
trick with the ace of hearts. he
Immediately led a small heart
and ruffed it with the deuce
of spades.
He overlook his 10 of dia-
monds with dummy's king and
led another heart, ruffing it with
the 10 of spades. The jack OF
diamonds was overtaken with
the ace on the board and
dummy's last heart was led.
This one Mr.. Meek ruffed with
his ace of spades, unlocking
SO that he would have trump
lead to the board. Now he led
the queen of spades and won
with dummy's king.
On the lead of the jack Of
spades he carefully discarded the
queen of diamonds. The re-
naming trumps were then
picked up and all of dummy's
diamonds were good.
Thus Mr.. Meek won five dia-
monds, one heart and no less
than seven trump tricks. This
was one hand where Mrs. Keen
wished she had Miss Brash for
a partner.
