Recruiting Incentive

The Federal Government has decided
to give private industry more competition
in the search for engineers, scientists and
other specialists. The new policy will
bring higher entrance pay for such hard
to-get employees. The increased rates are
designed to lure college graduates into
the Federal establishment for highly
technical or other specialized jobs that
urgently need filling.
The contest for young technicians has
grown in intensity in recent years, be-
cause of rapid developments in the field
OF physics, chemistry and allied sciences.
The newspapers every day publish ads
appealing to such men to sign up for
variety of research and production jobs
offered by large corporations These pri-
vate firms have been getting the pick of
the recruits, as private industry has been
guaranteeing higher pay than Federal
agencies.
The Governments "help wanted" list
in the specialist categorieS now covers
nearly 5000 positions in numerous de-
partmentS and agencies. The personnel
shortage is such as to justify the Civil
Service Commissions move to offer a
greater incentive for entering Federal

Social Security Landmark

Both branches of Congress have now
passed legislation amending and broad
ening in two major respects the social
security system. And, as expected, con-
ference agreement has been reached
quickly on the two foremost revisions-
providing for lowering the compensate
retirement age for women from IS to 81
and for paying full retirement benefits
to fully disabled persons who have
reached the age of so. In the Senate last
week, as during House consideration last
year, test votes on these ar-reaching
changes followed party lines in general.
The Democrats favored the liberaliza-
lions and the conforming
on the whole to administration appre-
henSion about increased costs and the
added taxes need to meet them
opposed them. While final action in
each instance found the two parties
joined to record an overwhelmingly ia
vorable majority, the Democrats I'M
doubtedly will claim major credit on an
issue expected to have political appeal.
There are, however, more than polit-
ical considerations involved There is
reason to feel that this broadening of the
21-year-old program is warranted and
practical. The legislation agreed upon in
conference provides for small social Sc
curity tax increases, effective next Janu-
airy /, to cover the estimated increased
costs.
Debate in the Senate was often dra-
matte as two of the most respected senior
conservatives Of the Democratic Party
Senator George of Georgia and Senator
Byrd of Virginia-locked horns over the
disability insurance plan. It was the
Georgian, about to end a distinguished
34-year career in the Senate, who carried
the day for the disability coverage.
Secure from charge of politicking in
view of his retirement, the Georgia Sena-
tor described his cause as the most i'm
portant he had lever presented to the
American people" and there was no doubt
that his appeal for aid to those who face
the tragedy of disability was persuasive
factor in the voting. There was, at the
same time, cogency to the warnings of
opponents that efficient administration
of this plan will be difficult as well as
costly, and that care must be taken to
prevent abuses. 1t is our guess, however,
that this action by Congress will have
large measure of public approval.

to the juggernaut Of a god
less system out to rule the
world. This is the devilish
thing whose representatives
are now visiting capitals of
nations and are being received
as equals by those whose most
sacred standards and beliefs
they brazenly ridicule and
deny.
Well did the Vice President
Of the United States, speaking
to all so-called neutral nations
now being exposed to the
"come-into my parlor said
the-spider-t fly" refrain,
warn that those who sup with
the devil had better have a
long spoon" There are moral
implications of close asSocia-
ton with those guilty of every
crime on the calendar which
the free world disregards to its
peril. The role of true religion
in this battle Of Armageddon
is to face the issue with the
moral indignation Of the He
brew prophets and Of Jesus of
Nazareth. For our own souls
sakes we must do that.
OF course, we must never in
dulge in an anger that has it's
roots in selfishness. The trou-
BILE is that we often become in
dignant over trifles. The per-
versity even of inanimate OBJ
jects sends us into a tantrum

Missing in Russia

On the basis of impressive eye
witness reports from released Soviet priS
onerS of various types, our Government
now has good reason to believe that sew
eral American airmen-poSSibly upwards
of 20 or more-are being held captive in
Russia, some of them since as long ago
as April 8, 1850.
These AmericanS-off1cer and crew.
men of Navy and Air Force planes forced
down in or near Soviet territory-have
until recently been presumed to be dead.
In fact, acting on that official presump-
ton, the widow" of at least one of them
has since remarked But now, according
to the note our Government has Just
addressed to the Kremlin, reports about
their survival have been so persistent, so
detailed and so credible that there is very
solid and compelling ground for the belief
that many of them, if not all, are alive
in Russian prisons, being held there as
punishment for the most spurious sort of
crimes.
If this is true, as it seems to be, then
the poSt-Stalin men of the Kremlin are
guilty themselves of the peculiarly heart
less kind of cruelty that was so typical
of the Stalinist era they now condemn.
More than that, they are in violation of
international law and practice under
which nation, when it seizes another
nations citizens, makes no secret about
the matter. Instead, in keeping with the
standards and obligations of civilized
conduct and simple human decency, it
formally and promptly reveals it's action
to the interested government or permits
the captiveS to get in touch with their
country's official representatives.
1t is against this background that
our Government has called upon Russia's
collective leaders" to make an immedi-
ate and thorough investigation of the
case of the missing airmen and to let us
have the findings as soon as possible. The
response should constitute an enlighten-
ing measure of how much the Krennlin
has really de-Stalinized itself.

Sir ROGER Leuyino

Ever since arriving here in 1858, Sir
Roger MakinS has been more than just
an excellent ambassador. In that ca
pacity, he has rendered fine service to
Britain and to the maintenance of good
and close relations between his country
and ours But in addition, unofficially,
together with his attractive American
born wife and charming daughters, he
has established himself as a warm and
friendly personality in our neighborhood,
a sort OF eaSy-going fellow-townSman
genuinely attached to the community So
Washington will feel real sense of loss
when he returns to London to take over
his important new post as one of the two
permanent Secretaries of the British
Treasury.
The new British Ambassador will be
Sir Harold Caccia, distinguished career
diplomat well and favorably remembered
by President Eisenhower from close asso-
citation during the Second World War,
notably in Africa. He is also we'll and
favorably remembered by more than
few American officials who have worked
with him at numerous international
meetings, including last years Geneva
summit" conference. Prime Minister
Eden thus has chosen a good and expert
enced man to take Sir Rogers place. AS
for Sir Roger himself, when he leaves the
United States, he can be sure he will take
with him the best wishes of the American
people, particularly Washingtonians-
official and unofficial alike.

SPIRES OF THE SPIRIT
Suppinq With the Devil
By DIR. FREDERICK BROWN HARRIS
Chaplain Of the United states Senate

Jibes pointing to flaws in
the free world are quite. the
fashion. This global sport is
especially INDUCED in by ma
tions whose people have been
fed and whose economy has
been rescued from ruin by a
Good Samaritan called Uncle
Sam. Often, here at home, we
are told that our house is made
of glass, and so it is we'll not
to throw stones, even at the
totalitarian structure. The in
ference is that. since there are
sinners on both sides of the
iron curtain, the thing to do is
to shake handS-that is, when
the Communists feel like in
dulging in that social diversion
instead Of crying out against
crimes which inwardly disturb
US. We are blandly told that
there is nothing we can do
about the awful things that
are going on in the world, and
so it is best to be friendly with
all concerned. rather than to
stand up and to speak out
boldly in Gods name. This
advice is to Fold the hands
and acquiesce." That is the
essence of the deadly plague
called "neutralism," which
now is weakening the defenses
of a number of nations once
alert to threatening danger.
Siren voices are saying that.
after all, the difference be-
tween social systems is Just a
matter of choice and of opin-
ion. Such an attitude loses
sight Of the sanctities and de-
cencieS of life which can never
be a matter of opinion with
civilized men. In all this Jelly
hsh neutrality there is a total.
and often a willful, disregard
OF the reality of the heinous
thing mankind is facing.
No scripture applies more
literally in the present crisis
than the injunction: Come
We out from among them and
be We separate, and touch not
the unclean thing" To Join
1t. or even to regard it with
complacency, means inevitably
our own damnation. For what
we are asked to Cooperate
with-and that is what the
camouf1aged word coexistence
really means-is the most
damnable thing which has
ever appeared on the face of
the planet. He'll has broken
through the polished veneer of
our modern world. Sadistic
cruelties have emerged with

How Conductor Fares

AS I am retired. I spend a
lot Of time on streetcars and
buses. When I ride, I try to
sit up front so I can hear the
questions people ask the con-
ductor.
On one trip, from Washing
ton circle to Peace Monument,
I counted 8 people wanting to
know the time IL wanted
to know II the car passed a
certain point 4 wanted to
be let of at a certain place.
I am sure after driving all
day on a line like that, the
poor conductor must be worn
out after a days work. Why
can't the transit company in
stall loud speakers in the CEN
ter Of the vehicle so the driver
could talk in a moderate tone,
and still be heard as he calls
the streets out? Washington
has so many tourists and this
would be very helpful to them.
A clock installed over the
windshield so everyone could
see 1t would also save the
driver q lot Of trouble.

SobeIoffs Better Side

I would like to congratulate
The Star on its article by Mary
McGrory about Simon Sobeloff
and his appointment as Judge
Of the Fourth Circuit Court of
Appeals which appeared July
II. At a time when one has
occasion to question the judg-
ment and wisdom of many in
volved in the handling of the
law and law enforcement, it is
good to find generous space
given TO extolling the work and
character Of a man who is con-
cerned with humane justice
in our legal procedures.
Much of-the country's news
space should be devoted to
pointing up the dignity Of
men, and in emphasizing the
good things that they do; and
much, much less space should
be given to breaking reputa-
tons with one-sided stories Of
crime" or criminals"
I think Of a good newspaper.

of fury. But there is an anger
which if we lose by supping
with the devil will result in a
much of concession and COM
promise. Let us never forget
that while Jesus could be ten
der He was also terrible in His
indignation against those who
abused His brother man. When
even a friend made an evil
suggestion to Him, He blurted
out Get thee behind me,
satan" He would not sup with
the devil! Whenever He saw
cruelty perpetrated on the de-
fenSeleSs His indignation rose
. to the fury of a tempest. When
He contemplated the crime of
robbing children of their birth
right He uttered burning words
which leaped out like a devour-
flame. Listen to Him: Whose
shall cause one Of these little
ones to stumble, it would be
better for him that a great
milestone be hanged about his
neck, and that he should be
sunk in the depths of the sea-"
What can we imagine the
Christ would say. as He con-
fronted the crimes of the
SovietS and of Red China?
For what they are now saying
Stain was and did is a hide
Gus picture Of what they are
and are doing.
Nothing is more needed in
our day than a large capacity
for moral indignation. Moth
ing is so deadening and damn
ing as neutrality. This is true
especially when the criminals
whose lair is the Kremlin are
putting on a new look, and
are also offering to the world
they have outraged soothing
syrup which ought to be la
beled Deadly Poison" Some
thing has happened, some
thing terrible, to those in the
free nations who can con-
template the gigantic outrages
of which the Soviet system
has been guilty and is still
carrying on, and who can yet
be as calm as a summer morn
ing.
A willingness to sup with the
devil, with a long spoon or a
short one. is an indication of
indifference to wrong doing,
and is always a sign of moral
deterioration. And now, let
us pray: From the fatal flu
tility of becoming nothing but
spineless neutrals, bowling

tolerance, good Lord. deliver

A sanitation campaign was
being carried on vigorously by
city officials so years ago, ana
police were told to cite any
one who failed to take part IN
the general cleanup. On July
%, 1906, The Star reported:
"Clean up your back yard
clean up the vacant lots
clean the stables-the kitch-
ens-clean everything every
where in the city, The fore
going was the announcement
of the municipal authorities
last week, and this week
should see its realization. !.
The campaign for municipal
cleanliness is not without rea-
son, for the recent weekly re-
ports of the health Office have
shown alarming increases in
mortality, the death lists be-
ing abnormally high and the
corresponding death rate out
of proportion even for the
vitality sapping midsummer
season. Then, too, has been
noted the increase in number
of typhoid fever cases at an
unusually early time in the
year, and while the authorities
have not succeeded in deter
mining the cause for the
spread of the disease, it is
pointed out that a general i'm
provement in sanitary condi-
tons throughout the city can
not but make for better health
among its inhabitants and pos
sibly immunity for some from
typhoid. :"
