French Angered at Our Reluctance
To Use ForcefuI Diplomacy in Suez

Four Asiatic statesmen. King
Saud Of Arabia. Presidents
Nasser Of Egypt and Shukri Of
Syria. and Prime Minister
Nehru Of India. met on Mon
day in the 6audian capital Of
Riyadh to talk over not only
the Suez Canal problem but
also q new Middle Eastern
Asiatic front.
No representative from Mos
COW was present. since King
Saud still determinedly opposes
any ofiicial contacts with
atheists. But the Egyptian
President and the Indian
Prime Minister are sufiiciently
briefed as to the USSR's over
all aims to carry the ball for
the absentee.
Col. Nasser received all the
honors Of a conquering hero.
For IN the eyes Of the Arab
world he is exactly that. Not
only did he weather the storm
threatened by the two great
est European powers, but he
forced them-in fact though
not In form-to accept q diplo-
matte and political defeat
which win have resembling
effects over the years to come
from the Atlantic to the Pacific.
He achieved his vistory with
the assistance Of the Soviet
diplomat who guided every
one Of his steps with a firm
hand. There are strong rea-
sons to believe that the manner
in which the Egyptian Premier
rammed the naturalization
Of the Suez Canal Co. down

the result of lengthy talks
with Soviet Foreign Minister
Shepilov. Yugoslavia's Dicta-
tor Tito and Mr. Nehfu's right
hand man, the bitter anti
Western Krishna Menon, who
visited with Col. Nasser for
several months before the
colonel made his spectacular
coup.

The action--and victory-of.
Col. Nasser has served Moscow
a threshold purpose: it has

which will require more than
American dollars to patch up.
Frances anger at the paci-
flying actions of the United
States is on the surface greater
than Britain's. Many French
newspapers and politicians
compare to some degree our
appeasement policy - which
was dictated by the fear that
at present French and British
military power is not sufficient
to cope with the kind Of re-
sistance the Egyptians and
their associates were prepared
to offer-with Great Britain's
stand in March. 1886. when
Adolf Hitler occupied the
Rhineland.
At that time the French
government was prepared to
mobilize its forces and make
a show Of strength, thus clip
ping the wings Of the Ger
man dictator.
London was consulted. It
hesitated because the British
political leaders did not think
that drastic measures were
necessary. They believed then,
as they did until Hitler occu-
pied Austria, that you could
do business with q dictator.
Hitler's onward march contin-
ued until he plunged the whole
world into World War II.

Even Adlai Stevenson. Demo-

sent a telegram to one Of the
mass meetings in which he
said the hearings "are serv-
ing no constructive purpose.
He evidently doesn't want to
let both sides of the contro-
versy be presented, either.
An attempt was made a few
days ago to get President Eli
senhower in some way to use
his influence to head of the
hearings. Eisenhower replied
in a noncommittal manner
that he didn't think the hear

New Call For Bitterness And lll-Will

According to an article in the current issue of
LOOK Magazine whose expose on the I'LL case created
something of national sensation, some Negro news
paper reporter from up in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has
lust made tour of the South and according to what
he says, has found the Negroes OF the South ready
for trouble if necessary in order to obtain their rights
frst-clasS citizens.
Well in all our interest, investigation, and concern
with the subject having been somewhat active IN the
effort to obtain the rights of frscass citizenship for
Negroes in Mississippi and the rest of the South long
time before most of the current OF writer's and
spokesman came on the scene, and being somewhat
widely acquainted with Negro leaders throughout the
South, haven't heard of any Negro owned and OPP
Grated gun factory, ammunition factory, nor have we
heard heard of anyone else having heard before the
gentleman in question, that Negroes in the South had
accumulated any kind of military stores foods, clothing
and such stuff that is the basis for such readiness.
What is all to obvious to any other honest
observer that in cold logic and comparison of
in hand and which might be obtained the Southern Ne
gro is sorey and totally dependent upon the good will
and continued friendly attitude of the white people
among whom he lives and that the Negroes wouldn't

Moreover, we'll aware of the fact, that
among the masses of Southern Negroes, who gave
body mandate including the NAACP to call for the
question of too close interminging with white folks

not being altogether conclusive in his desire for first
class citizenship.

An Appeal To Whites And Negroes

Once again we should like to urge all people of
Christian good will to do all in their power to exercise
moderating influence before Southern condi
lions become any more serious.
And as is so often the the greatest opportunity
lie not in big things gigantic programs but just
in frendier everyday relations between white peo
pie and coored people AS Southerner said day
or two Snce these racial tensions have increased
have increased efforts to show the other little
courtesies and kndnesses that may have been
looking heretofore" We also know of Negroes who are
showing increased appreciation of their white friends
with tact and courtesy such the finest persons in
the Negro race have always been noted for
Our Negroes will make a mistake if they depend on
force to compel sudden and revolutionary changes
schools Our white people will make as great mistake
if we fail to give Negro people all the rights
courtesies and help give them short of those
which might promote amalgamaton of the races AS
Progressive Farmer reader suggested several years
ago, perhaps the greatest force for racial good will
would be for each white person and each coored person
to try to find each day opportunity to do kind
deed or speak kind word to person of the other
race.
We also cherish the faith that in many communi-
ties there is still chance for of the fairest-
minded white people and the farest-minded colored
people to consult together and work out policies that
can keep their localities peaceful, regardless of what
happens elsewhere.
