REFLECTIONS ON THE So
WET REVOLUTION-While all
the world is agog at Sputniks I
and II, there are other aspects of
the Soviet revolution that we
seem to have forgotten all about.
Forty years ago, Lenin and
Trotsky told the angry, disheart-
ened people of Russia not to
reach for the moon-but they did
promise heaven on earth. Now,
four decades later, what is the
score?
The Soviet government still
does not enjoy the free allegiance
of its people, nor those of its sat-
elite neighbors. The 100000, 900
citizens Of the Russian state still
live under the watching eyes of
the secret police. The forced labor
camps have not been emptied.
The Russian people remain ILL
fed, ill-clothed and ill-housed.
It is true that they have gone
far in the race for outer-space.
Totalitarian governments have
many short-range advantages
over the free, more relaxed West
ern democracies. Other dictator
ships have also done we'll, in the
short-run. With slave labor the

rousing-but they still lost and SO
did Faubus.
In Virginia, too, an Indignation

County board after the Byrd ma

racist demagogery. These events,

RUMOR ON THE UPPER LEV

over the acceptance of gifts from
King Saud by the State Dept. S
Deputy Chief of Protocol, Victor
Purse, the Washington wits had
a field day. Everybody had some

registered Negroes of voting age Is
still far below other States.
Louisiana offers an example of
the extent of the increase in Negro
registration since 1914. In the elec-
ton that year. 1872 Louisiana
Negroes were registered, compared
to l61, 400 last year.
The old discrimination
threats and Negro economic depend
ence on whites-still partially ex-
plain small percentages of Negro
voters. But the council found
another reason: Lack of political
consciousness and apathy, demon
strated by the fact that in some
cities where registration was COM
paratively easy the number of
Negroes registered remained low"
Employment Figures Sporse
Specific figures documenting ex-
banded employment rights for
Negroes in the South are hard to
come by, since most employers
shun any publicity regarding new
policies suggesting indignation. Fig
ures are available, however, on the
increase in Negro policemen in the
South. In 1945. only 30 Southern
cities had Negro policemen. The
total OF Negro officers was 1871. In
1854. l43 cities and % counties
employed 822 Negro policemen.
They included As cities and coun-
ties in the Deep South States of
Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Mis-
siSsippi and South Carolina. In
the past two years, more have
been added to the list.
There are number of instances
OF the voluntary ending of diScrimi-
nation in hiring. Among those COM
panies willing to receive publicity
for their new policies is the Inter-
national Harvester Co. and the
FireStone Tire and Rubber Co..
which have plants in Memphis
being operated under a no-discrimi-
nation hiring policy.
Negro clerical employees can be
found in Dallas and there are de-
partment stores in a number of
Southern cities with Negro clerks.
In this general area the color
line is also gradually coming down

STRANGE ALLIANCE

grumblings of the government. The
hold Of the church on the Polish
people has never been broken.
1t is a measure of Mr.. Gomulka's
shrewdneSS that he saw in post
PoZnan Poland the decisive role
played by the church. 1t is a meas
ure of Cardinal Wyszinskis politi-
cal wisdom that he accepted the
Premier'S peace overtures and made
possible his spectacular election
victory in January over the
Stalinists.
A word from the cardinal would
have pushed the irate Polish people
into revolt. This would have meant
Russian intervention. Instead of
opposing him. Cardinal Wyszinski
Joined Mr.. Gomulka to save Poland
from the fate of Hungary.
Today Mr.. Gomulka talks Of
democratic socialism" not COM
munism. He has promised an end to
farm collectivization and a new
beginning for private enterprise in
the retail trades.
The cardinal. on the other hand,
has made it clear he wants no re-
turn to Polands semifeudal past.
In this, he reflects Polish public
opinion. There is little apparent
sympathy inside the country for
those exile groups in the West who
were associated with the big land
lord oligarchy Of the prewar years.
Opening for the West
The strange alliance has re-
opened the country to Western in
fluence to an extent hardly thought
possible only a year ago. Farmers
have been promised modern ma
chinery from the West. American,
British and French publications
are becoming widely available. And
one Of Warsaw's biggest newspapers
is preparing an illustrated weekly
magazine devoted exclusively TO
news. photos and comic strips from
the West. 1t is expected to sell
about a million copies a week.
But the future of the Gomulka
government is predicated on its
ability to alleviate dire economic
distress and TO deliver on the
promise made last october for i'm
proved living standards. Substantial
help from the Kremlin cannot be
expected for an erstwhile satellite
insistent on freedom and directed
by gray eminence in the person
of Cardinal Wyszinski
Despite vehement Soviet bloc OBJ
jections, the Poles now are seeking
direct assistance from the United
States. Opinion here is that what
is at stake for both Warsaw and
Washington is Poland's continued
freedom from complete Soviet domi-
nation.

In the last 16 years the Tuskegee

Is years.
Opinions Chonee
Last year. the National Opinion
Research Center surveyed white
racial attitudes in the North and
South with results that did not
square with many common con-
ceptions.
1t found that while only 81 per
cent of the white Southerners in
1912 believed that Negroes are as
intelligent as whites. the figures
rose to SO per cent in 1856.
The survey also showed that IA
per cent of the white South APP
prove of school indignation, COM
pared to per cent in 1912; 81 per
cent approve of integrated trans
portation, compared to 4 per cent
in 1912. and that 38 per cent do not
object to Negro residential prox-
unity, compared to IL per cent
in 1912.
The fact that, for the most part,
the greatest gains have been made
in the past four years when pres
sure on the South has been heavi-
est lends weight to the argument
that they represent only a grudg-
ing accommodation to those pres.
sures. This is seen most clearly in
the frantic efforts of Southern
States to bring their Negro schools
up to par after the Supreme Court
ruled against school segregation.

not understood by most people who

6. Creative expression. 1t is DR..
