Lioht on Postal Service

The investigation of the Post ONCE
Department begun by the House APP
propriations Committee apparently is
an outgrowth of the recent controversy
between the committee and Postmaster
General Summerf1eld over his request
for supplemental funds. Congressional
critics of the postal service had con-
tended that additional money would not
have been needed II the department
had operated more efficiently. Mr..
Summerfield eventually got most OF the
money he requested
Whatever the political aspects of
the inquiry may be, the department
should have no objection to a study of
It's operations, in view of Mr. Summer
fields assertions that further economies
can be effected only at the expense Of
services rendered. 1t was his threat of
sharply curtailed mail deliveries that
led Congress to grant the supplemental
appropriation during the closing days
of the past session. The current inves-
tigation will give the committee an
opportunity to check on the Postmaster
Generals expressed belief that the de-
partment is providing the public with
a maximum of service for the dollars
invested.

spaces not served by county sewer or
water systems. The plan was to limit
further subdivision development to the
urbanized sections bordering on Airing
ton County, Falls Church and Alexan-
dria. In this wide belt, making up about
one-third Of the county'S area, adequate
public services and facilities already are
available or planned. The division of
the county in this way-between urban
and rural sections-was recommended
by planning experts after lengthy
surveys.
However, owners of property in the
open spaces Joined with real estate
developers in vigorous fight against
the two-acre- minimum lot size, charging
that the provision was discriminatory
and unduly restrictive of their rights as
property holders. Judge Waddell of the
Circuit Court has upheld the opponents
in strong opinion. If the ruling stands,
an entirely new approach to the coming
OF the county must be undertaken. But
the objective should remain the same,
namely, to insure the orderly growth of
one OF the fastest-developing counties
in Virginia.

Fairfax Zoninq Upset

Fairfax County's long-debated zon-
ing plan for a checkrein on subdivision
development In the rural western part OF
the county has encountered a sharp
setback in court. The Fairfax Circuit
Court ruling that a provision for two
acre lots in the open area is arbitrary
and unreasonable" will open the way
for rapid residential expansion there,
unless an appeal should be successful
If such a realty boom should ensue, the
county would have to cope with heavy
additional demands for public facilities
and services-at time when it is hav-
ing difficulty in meeting accumulated
current demands. The problem posed
is a serious one.
The county amended its coming laws
last year to prevent large-scale subdivi-
sion activities in the wide-open western

Soviet Modesty

Henceforth, according to an an
nouncement by the Soviet news agency
Tass, no place or institution in the
USSR is to bear the name of a living
Russian. That honor, of course. has
already been shorn from such diSgraced
comrades as Molotov, Kaganovich and
Malenkov, but the Kremlin s. new decree
applies to everybody else as well, in
Guiding even the Right Honorable Nikita
S. KhruShchev
In fact, the decree is the brainchild
Of Mr.. Khrushchev himself He first
alluded to it in his celebrated speech of
February, 1956-the historic speech In
which he upended the Communist world
by tearing Stains reputation to shreds
and inveighing against the Soviet "cult
Of personality" AS he said at the time,
Comrades! Lenin had often stressed
that modeSty is an absolutely integral
part OF real Bolshevik. :. We cannot
say that we have been following this
feminist example. /. Many Of us par
ticipated in the action of assigning our
names to various towns. We must
correct this. But this should be
done calmly and slowly Thus, II
today we begin to remove the signs
everywhere and to change names, peo-
pie will think that these comrades in
whose honor the given enterprises, kolk-
hozes or cities are named :. met some
bad fate" like being arrested by the
secret police and having bullets shot
Unfortunately through their heads.
But now Mr.. Khrushchev apparently
feels that the name-changing can pro-
coed without confusing anybody, except
possibly postal clerks and mapmakers.
In any case, as indicated by Tass, he
wants the job done without further de-
lay, and he wants it to include every
thing named after him. Such modesty
from SO great man! AS for the dead
Stain, the new rule does not seem to
apply, but Nikita has long since indi-
Gated that the old tyrant has no right to
lie enshrined beside Lenin in Red Square
too immodest SO nobody should be
surprised by what may happen next on
that score.

On His Own Head

The Governor FaubuS who appeared
on televiSion last night seemed to be a
man who was shocked and diSmayed by
what has happened to him and to his
State. And perhaps this is the case.
If so, however, it becomes all the more
important to keep the record straight.
Little Rocks plan for gradual inte-
grafton in the public schools was pre-
pared by the Little Rock School Board.
After the plan had been made public
q school board election was held. Two
members Of the board which had pre-
pared the plan were opposed by two
avowed segregationistS. The incumbent
members were reelected by a two-to-
one majority. This clearly indicates
that the indignation plan, at that time
at least, was accepted by most Of the
people of Little Rock.
When Governor FaubuS called out
the Arkansas National Guard he said
he was acting to preserve order. And
necessary step in doing this, he con-
tended, was to bar from Central High
School the Negro children who had been
certified as eligible for enrolment. The
Guard did bar the Negroes, the Federal
Court enjoined Governor Faubus and
the Guard against preventing integra-
ton, and, with the Guard withdrawn,
this weeks riot followed as the unsuc-
ceSsful attempt to integrate was made.
With mob rule successfully obstruct-
ing the order of the court and over
whelming the civil forces in Little Rock,
the President did what we think he had
to do. Federal troops were sent into
the city and the Guard was federalized
on a standby basis. The Federal para
troopers, armed, it is true, with what
the Governor calls naked bayonets,"
proceeded to impose order in Little Rock
and to open the school to the Negroes.
This proves what everyone knew
assuming the use of sufficient force,
Indignation can be put into effect and
order can be maintained. If Governor
FaubuS wants to get the Federal troops
out of Little Rock, he must make up his
mind to use his Guardsmen, when they
are restored to his control, for the same
purposeS-and not to use them to pre-
vent indignation.
At best, the prospect is a dismal
one. For the process of public education
is reduced to mockery when it has to
be carried forward under the surveil-
lance of armed troops. But as things
stand now, the choice lies between con-
tinued use of Federal troops in Little
Rock or the proper use of the National
Guard.

Protecting the Workers

ABdAlSI Tie current background or
widespread charges of malpractices
within certain labor unions, and of COL
fusion between employers and unions
often detrimental to employees, the Ma
tional Labor Relations Board has re-
Vealed that an increasing number of
individual workers are seeking the pro-
lection offered through the labor rela-
tons law. Addressing the Labor Law
Institute of the Missouri Bar ASSocia-
ton, NLRB Chairman Boyd Leedom re-
ported that during the past year As per
cent OF the charges against unions and
81 per cent Of the charges against COM
panieS had been filed by individual
workers. In the field Of unfair labor
practice cases, individuals and unions
are filing almost equal percentages of
the complaints.
BY terms Of its statute, the board
does not have Jurisdiction over many
of the offenses being disclosed by the
Mcclellan committee or by the Ethical
Practices Committee of the AFL-CIO.
1t has no authority, for example, to in
terfere with the internal administration
of labor union and it has no criminal
or restraint of trade Jurisdiction. 1t
does, however, have the power to pro-
tect the rights of individual employees
in certain of the areas where fragrant
abuses currently are being revealed. One
is in the so-caued Sweetheart agree
ment" racket where company and union
have entered into a contract even
he
mated as the workers choice of bargain
ing agent. Mr.. Leedom cited case of
this kind involving the Transfers
Union, and described 1t as demonstrate
ing IAN employers wilful disregard of
law. proneneSS to buy economic pro-
lection from union which likewise dis
regards law, and cynical MANAGEMENT
attitude toward the desires and we'll
being of its employees" The board found
both employer and union violating the
labor relations law. Mr.. Leedom like
wise cited cases where the board had
acted to protect employees in their Job
rights, jeopardized by union "discipli-
nary action against them.
There is, of course, a broad range
OF potential abuses in the labor-man-
agement field. Some may be attacked
through existing law and some through
the determination of labor and man.
agement themselves to operate in the
best interest Of the workers. New legis-
lation which may emerge from the SEN
ate committees investigation could
close other loopholes. 1t is a hopeful
sign in this whole picture that the in
dividual workers are becoming increas-
ingly aware that the various projections
are available to them.
