Up She Goes Again

THE STEEL STRIKE is still in pro-
qress. Negotiators have not yet found
a formula for its settlement. The best
thinking is that boost in wages will be
effected, which will set another inflationary
spiral for American industry and in the
cost Of living. Where this trend will finally
bring the nation is still a source of worry
for those Avho believe in good stable fiscal
policies.
II the spiral follows the general pattern
Of the past wage rise will be followed by
a price rise in steel. which will touch off
other price rises. The inflationarv pressures
may find tightening of credit expansion
in an effort to effect some control
Generally the tightening Of credit brings
n slowing up Of business, SO that unless
initiation gets out Of hand the government
will not exert its brakes until after the
elections IN November Politics plays big

that so few people take an active interest,
or have any conception of politics.
Payroll taxes to support Social Security

able to retire on pensions without waiting

cheapening of the dollar; more govern
ment taxes and tighter rein on the every

paternalism and less individual liberties.

Principle Larger

7 ET'S not lose our perspective. T ne
- question Of segregation and indignation
in schools, as important as that is to the
people Of both races in the South, is not
as important as the principle involved.
Resort to personalities in its discussion
viii not lead to any satisfactory solution
but will appeal to the emotion rather than
to reason. During the past five wears the
very important matter has been discussed
editorally in the Herald upon the big
broad fundamental principles without re-
sort to personalities. We believe the people
should be given the right to express their
opinions, freely, whether such opinions be
contrary to cur own or not, and we shall
ask those who write to this editor for
publication to appeal to. logic rather than
personalities
We. rs personalities, will soon pass from
the scene. bat usurpation Of power by the
L. S. Supreme Court in its decision of
May IT, 1854. and subsequent decisions
form pattern, dangerous within itself
and disastrous if not curbed. BY all legal
and historic precedents and fact, the Su
preme Court decision has in effect cir
cumvented the Constitution Of the United
States and amended it in manner not
precribed by the Constitution itself. Until
the t. S. Constitution has been amended
50 As to give the power usurped by the
court in the Aay II decision, and those
subsequent thereto, we intend to raise our
editioral voice in opposition. and to adj
rocate every egal means to support our
Interpretation Of the Constitution as it was

framed and originally intended.
A shame it is that so momentous a
problem has become political issue. Or
rather it is a shame that politics has been
u $ d to create the problem. National
political interest in the Negro vote in
strategic areas has been used by those who
would force racial indignation as principle
on the South. In this point of view the
problem is a result of politics and certainly
it is now burdcned down with politics. An
ugly example came into the national pic
ture this week when Republican leader and
former House Speaker Martin used political
pressure on the Republican members of the
House of Representative to force the new
so-called Civil Rights legislation. 1t was
equally refreshing to see Republican Con-
gresham Miller of New York, himself a
member of the Judiciary committee re-
verse his stand and attack the, bills as being
inimica to the welfare of the people in
the United States His action shows an
awakening Of the people in the North to
the subtle movements now being attempted
by playing upon emotion against the South.
1t is to be hoped that more representatives
in Congress and officials in high places
will first be Americans and then Republi-
cans, Democrats etc. Resolutions passed at
the Virginia State Republican convention
in Roanoke Saturday give further evidence
that at last country is being placed ahead
Of party. May there be more
In discussing the great United States
dilemma may there be more sound logic
and less appea! to personalities

Yugoslav Ships
 Land 742 Troops At Port Said

PORT SAID, Egypt, R-Three Yugoslav ships landed 742 troops assigned to the JUN. Emergency Force CUNEF9 in Port Said yes terday.
 The British Expeditionary Force holding the northern end of the Suez Canal hoisted the Yugoslav flag in welcome.
 The Yugoslav troops were to remain in Port Said only two or three days before moving behind the Egyptian front, 27 miles south of this city.
 The Yugoslavs were the first JUN. troops to be landed in Egypt by ship. The other troops have been flown in, landing at Abu Suweir airfield behind Egyptian lines.
 The JUN. force already sta toned in Port Said totals 408 men. The first units were moved in to lessen tension between the Egyp- tian population and the occupy ing troops of Britain and France, but they have not begun patrol duty.
 Altho the Yugoslavs will move on south, the final JUN. contingent in the Port Said area is scheduled to be built up to about 1000 men. A Norwegian unit that arrived here last week was joined two days age by a Danish company and a headquarters organization.

Mystery USAF Team Is Based In Australia

ADELAIDE, Australia, A mys- tery US. Air Force team has been based in the hills just outside Alice Springs, central Australia, for the past four years, the Ade- laide News said yesterday.
 It speculated whether the team No. APO USAF Unit-was the spearhead of an eventual rocket test team to be situated in Aus tralia.
 The team arrived in 1852 when a Globemaster landed top secret crates of equipment, the paper said. The report said it is known Alice Springs installations include highly specialized and tracking in- struments which are not only suitable for following radioactive cloud conditions resulting from US. H-bomb tests in the Pacific, but could form the nucleus of equipment for rocket tracking.
 The Adelaide News said that as the US. has no overland range with any comparison to Austra- lia's Woomera rocket range, Aus tralia would be the ideal site for testing and subsequent recovering of spent missiles.

 It telegraphed the US. Mari time Board in Washington, DC, urging that Coastwise Lines be granted its application to increase it's fleet of four ships to six and raise its bi-weekly sailings to weekly.
 Harry R. Smith, chairman of the Chambers Alaska affairs com mittee, said Coastwise is the only common carrier operating be- tween California, Oregon and Alaska, and that additional ser vice would tend to equalize rates.
 Smith estimated that 25 per- cent of all cargo shipped from the West Coast originates in Cali fornia.

 In long article, Isvestia charged the leaders of Israel were acting as flunkeys for imperial ism' and pushing that country onto a suicidal path" It added:
 "It must be said flatly and bluntly that by hurling a chal- lenge to the Arab nations in the face of all the peoples of the East colonialism, Israel is dig ging it's own grave"

COOrdinator Named for US. Program to Admit Hun garian Refugees

AUGUSTA, Ga, President Ei- senhower yesterday named Tracy s. Voorhees,, former undersecre- tary of the Army, to coordinate the Hungarian refugee program and study whether more than 5000 should be admitted to this country.
 White House Press Secretary James C. Hagerty said Voorhees,, now New York attorney and sonsultant to the Defense Depart ment, is taking over the new as- signment immediately and will serve without pay.
 The President recently directed that up to 5000 refugees from Soviet oppression in Hungary be admitted to the United States. The first groups have been arriv- ing at a reception center at Camp Kilmer, NJ, and elsewhere since November 21.
