ROLLING
ALONG

Well, the Brooklyn Dod-
gers are now the Los Angeles
Dodgers and next season
ought to give us some idea
whether the California sun
is all it's cracked up to be.
The boys from Brooklyn
used to do all right when
about the only sun they saw
was when the NY. subway
reached the surface.
Being on the West Coast,
the Dodgers are going to
have to fly a lot e.. and
their star pitcher, Don New
combe, hates to fly. They say
even elevators get him diz-
zy. So the club hired a hyp-
notist who is supposed to be
able to peer into Newcombe's
eyes and convince him that
flying is more fun than any
thing. Maybe the peek-a-boo
wizard can also convince the
whole team that they can
beat anybody in the world.
Anyway, watch for the Dod-
gers with the New Look.
Toy manufacturers report
that the most popular toy is
still the toy six-shooter. We
may be living in the Atomic
Age but our feet are
still planted firmly in the
Old West.
The Old West had its CO.

day, East and West, we have
the wagons that are just
right for this Atomic Age.

Avoid This Mistake

1t is regrettable that the Senate
Armed Services Committee has followed
the ill-advised example Of the House in
breaking down the traditional relation
ship between active-duty and retired
pay for military personnel. The impor-
lance of maintaining this relationship,
under which retired pay rises in pro-
portion to increases in pay for active
officers, was stressed in the Cordiner re-
port. The report pointed out that this
assurance Of automatic pay adjustments
for retired officers has been a major
factor in maintaining the stability Of
the armed forces in peacetime, since 1t
has been an incentive for career service.
But the House, in a misguided econ
omy move, ignored the advice of the
Cordiner committee and the warnings
OF veteran military men-and the SEN
ate committee has gone along with the
House. Thus, for the first time in
century Of legislating on service pay,
1t is proposed that retired pay be COM
pletely divorced from regular pay. In
stead, per cent "cost of living"
increase for retired personnel is recon-
mended. This departure from long
established policy would be mistake.
We hope the Senate, when the bill
reaches the floor, will revise it so as
to maintain the vital tie-up between
active-duty and retired pay.

Moreover, 84.2 per cent OF all the acct

confirm the finding that 80 per cent OF

Weekend Highway PeriIs

A series OF weekend highway
deaths has pushed Virginia's death toll
for 1858 over the 200 mark, an ominous
indication that this years slaughter
may exceed Virginia's last years shame
full record Of more than 900 killed by
automobiles. Week ends, in fact, are
the most perilous periods on the Ma
tons highways-not only because there
are more cars on the road but because
more people drive recklessly then than
at any other time. This grim truth is
attested In a report on 1857 traffic acct
dents just released by the Travellers In
surance Companies. The findings should
be taken to heart by every motorist, now
that the season for weekend motor
jaunts is at hand.
The study by the insurance experts
showed that more than 40 per cent Of

AFRICAN Personality

There are many good reasons for
believing that Africa is continent with
bright, not dark, future. Its reservoir
OF natural resources is almost unlimited
In quantity, quality and variety-a
storehouse that seemed richly filled a
generation ago, but which has taken on
vastly greater values from the explora-
tons and discoveries OF the postwar
period. To match these material assets,
1t has population comparably large
and varied-and stirring today with a
quickening realization that 1t may soon
command its own destiny.
The emergence of politically indie
pendent states has provided the most
dramatic chapter in Africa'S postwar
history and their week-long Foreign
Ministers Conference at Accra has pro-
vided a first epilogue to this chapter.
Five Of the newly independent nations
-Ghana, Libya, Morocco, Tunisia and
the Sudan-were represented, along
with Egypt, Ethiopia and Liberia. Their
purpose, in brief, was to assert "a dis
tinctive African personality" in world
affairs. Their discussions and their
resolutions did much to achieve this
objective, and in a manner generally
creditable.
UNDERSTANDABLE, their greatest pre-
occupation was with the concept Of in
dependence itself-its protection where
1t now exists and its achievement In
such adjoining areas as Nigeria, Togo
land, the CameroonS, the Rhodesias and
others. On Algeria, the conference took
Its most controversial stand in recogniz-
ing the National Liberation Front as
sole legitimate political authority and
demanding negotiations to end French
military occupation" On the broader
stage of world politics, the group
adopted a moderately state
ment Of common foreign policy Of non
ENHANCEMENT" in the rivalry between
great power blocs Of the East and West.
1t was inevitable in such a group
as this, and at this time in its develop
ment, that spirit and pride Of nation
ism should prevail. At the same time,
1t Is reassuring and commendable that
there was no extreme emotionalism and
that the african personality" asserted
in Ac "a reflected both dignity land a
sense o. responsibility.

First Aid for the Rails

There probably is no economic
magic by which all the troubles OF the
railroad industry could be eliminated
and its good health restored and as
sured. In recent years, the transport
industry has become increasingly COM
petitive and subject to entirely new
economic factors. Air and highway
carriers have skinned Off most OF the
potentially profitable passenger travel
while certain percentage OF freight
hauling that once was largely monop-
olized by the rails likewise has been
diverted to other carriers. In addition,
as Secretary Of Commerce Weeks wrote
to the Senate Transportation subcom-
mittee, there have been some "ill-advised
practices Of management" and some
harmful, long-standing governmental
policies. His recommendations for con-
gressional action are directed at correct
ing some of the latter as we'll as Offering
some near-term financial assistance.
In the latter category, the Secretary
has proposed that the Government guar
antee $500-million loan program by
b which the railroads could borrow for
capital Improvements other than rolling
stock, and a $200-million loan program
for purchase Of freight cars In the
area OF Government policies, Mr.. Weeks
recommended that rate-making stand
ards be revised, that the Interstate Com
merce Commission be given enlarged
jurisdiction over curtailment of services,
that restrictions be frightened against
marginal private carriers" and that
there be Qualification Of the "agricul-
tural exemption" provisions OF the In
terstate Commerce Act. The most
significant omission from the admins
tration propoSals-and the one most
disappointing to the railroadS-was the
hopedfor recommendation that cur
rent excise taxes be lifted or at least
modified.
The Senate subcommittee has been
studying the railroad problem for sew
eral months and has, in fact, considered
favorably the type Of aid proposed by
Secretary Weeks. Chairman Smathers.
Florida Democrat, describes the recon-
mendationS as sensible and construc-
tive" and said the subcommittee will
report soon. While some persuasive ar
guments have been made for lifting the
excise tax burden-and the administra-
ton does not preclude that possibility
In the course Of general tax revision
1t may be wiser to go on at once with
the less controversial remedies and to
give the rails the benefit of "first aid"
as quickly as possible.

Teachers CoIIeqe

About two weeks ago the
Board OF Trade released q
statement and report oppos-
ing action by Congress at this
time on a bill which would
permit the D. c. Teachers
College to grant masters de-
grees to qualified students. As
q part Of this report, they OPP
posed any other action with
respect to expanding the d. C.
Teachers College and claimed
that their recommendations
had been influenced by rep
resentatives OF a number Of
the privately run universities
In the city. This should make
every voteless citizen Of the
D. C. boil with indignation.
I am beginning to feel that
we must have been out Of our
minds to have bought prop
erty IN a city where we have
no right to vote; and now the
Board Of Trade is saying that
we don't have the right to
send our children to a col
lege which will not leave us
destitute. The residents. of
Virginia have a State col
lege. the University Of Vir-
ginia, q fine liberal arts uni
versity which their children
can attend at reasonable
rates. The same is true of
citizens Of Maryland who
have the University Of Mary
land. Here in the District we
have several universities with
fees Of $40 and UP per credit
