that threaten the health, welfare and
safety OF the inmates.
The proposal for an enlarged proba-
ton star to concentrate on the drunk
problem was contained in the compre-
hensive report year ago by commit
tee of which Commissioner Karrick was
chairman. The report pointed out that
much of the present congestion results
from the steady influx of persons con-
vcted of intoxication. They are not
criminals IN the ordinary sense. After
serving their short sentences, they are
turned loose, only to return again and
again. There are no facilities at the
jail or workhouSe for attempting to
rehabilitate these prisoners.
Under the new program, the court
will refer to the special probation stan
all DRINKS not involved in criminal
charges. These unfortunate persons will
be invited to join Alcoholics Anonymous,
meetings Of which are held twice weekly
at the court And they will be assisted
in regaining old jobs or finding new
ones. 1t is hoped that the daily popu-
lation of the jail can be reduced by
about 200 persons when the plan be-
comes operative next month. The ex-
pertinent is well worth the time, money
and effort that will be devoted to it.

New DANCER Zone

A war OF nerves, II not worse, has
dared in the exchange of artillery fire
and the related air and sea operations
around the Quemoy and Tan Islands
off the Communist China coast. Where
it may lead is anybody's guess, but the
potential seriousness was made clear
enough by Secretary of State Dulles in
his weekend statement that an attempt
by the Chinese Reds "to conquer these
islands" would constitute "a threat to
the peace Of the area" Mr.. Dulles view
was supported, in effect, by Defense De-
partment orders to the United States
7th Fleet to take precautionary de-
Tense measures in the region of the
FormoSa Straits.
Held by the Chinese Nationalist,
the islands lie much closer to the Red
mainland than to FormoSa. Along with
the MatsuS, which lie farther up the
coast, they do, however, I'LL the role OF
defense outposts for the straits. Ma
tionalist garrisons have been supplied
with American equipment and the
United States Military Assistance Ad-
viSory Group on FormoSa repeatedly has
an officer detail on Quemoy. There has
been some uncertainty, at least up un-
til Mr.. Dulles latest statement, as to
whether the American defense UNI
brella" established by treaty over For
moSa and the Pescadores Islands ex-
tended to the otfShore islands closer to
the mainland. In 1855, when the Reds
also were making threatening gestures
toward Quemoy and MatSu, Congress
authorized the President to use Ameri-
can forces to protect Formosa and the
PeScadoreS, as well as related positions
and territories" Mr.. Dulles said then
that a determination would be made
when needed about the status Of the
offShore islands. In his weekend state
ment, however, Mr.. Dulles did point out
that "over the last four years the ties
between these islands and FormoSa have
become closer and their interdependence
increased"
Although opening their heavy
bombardment of Quemoy several days
ago, the Reds themselves have not
revealed their real intentions. Artillery
Smelling and Straf1ng by air are not
necessarily an attempt "to conquer"
The implied warning from Mr.. Dulles.
in relation to the discretionary au-
thority vested in the President, may
be enough to discourage Peiping from
an about attack-if that is what
the Communists had in mind. If such
an attack should develop, however, we
may find ourselves committed to defend
these islands. Thus, as the Middle East
quiets down, the Formosa land-sea area
becomes the new danger zone.

SASArGLoH STAG.

In the rapidly changing
American scene, Labor Day
has been transformed from
a day Of salute to our coun-
try's working people into a
''last weekend" of holiday
before school starts and
autumn responsibilities take
over.
May I, therefore, express
briefly to your readers the
views of the Communications
Workers of America, ALL
CLIO, at this Labor Day
period?
The officers and members
Of CWA, employed in hun
dreds of telephone companies
throughout the United States
and Canada, many of whom
are in the area served by
your paper, have faith in the
future of our free, demo-
cratic labor movement. We
have a profound faith in the
constructive value Of the Ia
Dor movement to our coun-
try'S growth and we'll being.
Disclosures by the McClel-
Ian Committee during the
past 10 months have indi-
Gated the existence Of bad
apples" among the leadership
Of some unions, aided by
either complacent or cowed
rank-and-flle members.
1t is perhaps inevitable,
but nevertheless unfortunate,
that many people will Judge
the whole American trade
union movement by its least
savory elements. 1t should be
remembered, however, that
the vast majority of unions
are like the CWA, honest and
clean, and devoted to the best
interests of the Nation and
the community.
Indeed. it is unfortunate
that the work of the ALL
CLIO Community Services
Committee, for instance, re-
ceives comparatively little
attention. Yet the commit
tee, together with its local
branches in unions and in
city labor bodies, has accom-
plished truly estimable work
in helping people in trouble,
in contributing to the success
of community Embarrassing
campaigns, and in extending
labor's cooperation to the
officials Of local governments
and public service organizs-
tons. These activities are
beneficial both to union mem
bers and the general public.
We believe America is as
strong as her community &C
tivities and we believe that
good citizenship comes first.
1t would be tragic indeed
in this period of national re-
ceSsion and international
crisis-if the misdeeds of a
few labor leaders who have
forSaken their trust, were to
overShadow the fine activi-
ties Of the great majority of
wholesome and constructive
trade unions and leaders
throughout America.
J. A. Beirne,
President, Communications
Workers of America.

inferior Retired Officers

Put into the legislative hopper dur
ing the last days of the 1858 session
was bill which deserves favorable con-
Sideration when Congress reconveneS in
January. This measure, sponsored by
Senators Jackson of Washington, Gold
water of Arizona, Barrett of Wyoming
and Thurmond of South Carolina, would
correct an inequity in the armed services
pay legislation enacted at this session.
1t is an inequity which creates what
Vice Admiral T. G. w. Settle, USN, re-
tired, described in recent letter to The
Star as the inferior Retired List"
The new pay law departed from the
traditional system of gearing retired pay
to active-duty pay-but only in the case
of military officers already retired. For
those then on the retired list fiat 6 per
cent increase was provided, instead Of
the larger increases granted active-duty
officers of similar grade. But for officers
retired after passage of the act the full
benefits of the pay raise were granted.
Thus, as Admiral Settle pointed out in
his letter, there have been created two
classes of retired officers of the armed
Services-the inferior" group, consist
ing largely of those who have seen active
service in battle, and a new elite Re
tired List" made up OF officers retiring
after last June /.
With this precedent established,
further departures from the traditional
relationship between retired and active
duty pay are feared by military officers
Said Admiral Settle: 1.-The conclusion is
unacceptable that many of the cream Of
our young active personnel will be de-
TERED from service careers by this dem
onStrated retirement insecurity" The
amendment to the pay act proposed by
the bipartisan group in the Senate
would restore the balance between the
pay scales of retired and active-duty
officers and thus end the threat Of
insecurity. The next Congress should
eliminate the discrimination between
past and future retired officers, for
neither group is inferior or elite in
relation to the other.

Important Commission

The fate of plans for a great Ma
tlonal Cultural Center here soon will be
placed in the hands of a 30-member
commission, now that Congress has pro-
vided the necessary authority for the
center. Since realization of the city'S
dream Of such an auditorium will depend
on the commissions success in raising
construction funds, we urge President
Eisenhower to use great care in naming
the nongovernmental members of the
body. For these Is appointees will have
most of the heavy responsibility of meet
ing the flve-year deadline on the sub
scription campaign.
Under the new legislation, Is
truStee-memberS of the Cultural Center
Commission will be Federal officials
serving eX-off1cio These trustees OBJ
viouSly will be able to devote only part
Of their time to the center project. The
Embarrassing job necessarily will fall
largely on the Is additional trustees to
be selected by the President More than
big names will be needed to assure
success of the undertaking. Trustees are
required who can devote great deal
Of time and energy to the drive for
money. 1t has been estimated that
between $40 million and SIS million
must be raised to build the hall. All of
this, under terms of the law, must come
from private sources. The land will be-
made available by the Federal Govern
ment. which in turn will be repaid by
the District under provisions of the
Capper- Cramton Act.
The commission, in addition to rails
ing the building fund, will have charge
of preparing plans for the center and of
building and operating it. The commits
Sion-to-be plainly has its work cut out
for it. Only an active, dedicated group
of trustees is apt to assure the success
of the important enterprise.

Test in Norfolk

Federal Judge Hoffman has spelled
out the ground rules for assignment of
Negro children to white schools in Nor
folk, and there seems to be every indi-
cation that at least some such assign
ments will be made in the near future.
The judge told the Norfolk school
authorities he would approve some
grounds cited by them for refusing to
assign colored children to white schools.
These were lack of scholastic achieve
ment, residence closer to Negro school
than to white school and the prospect
Of retransfer next year to new colored
school that is being built, presumably
closer to the children'S place of residence.
Judge Hoffman made 1t clear, how
ever, that he would not approve the
threat Of racial tension or the prospect
that colored child might be isolated in
a white school as being legal grounds for
refusing to make the requested assign
mentS. Thus, barring some further legal
maneuverS, this seems to clear the way
for the assignment of about IS colored
children to four white schools when
classes begin on September 8.
The real question iS-what happens
then? There is no indication that public
sentiment in Norfolk Tin contrast to
sentiment in Prince Edward County,
would favor shutting down the schools
rather than accepting some indignation.
Under State law, however, Governor
Almond is required to close any int
grated school, at least temporarily. He
can then return the school to the local
authorities, but they lose State financial
aid if they reopen it on an integrated
basis.
Essentially this same question will
have to be faced in Arlington and Char
lottesville. AL three communities, under
Federal court orders, are faced with the
imminent prospect of accepting some
Indignation. If they accept integration,
they lose State funds derived from their
own taxes. If they do not accept inte-
grafton, then the schools must close and
stay closed. This, in short, is what has
emerged from the ill-adviSed policy of
massive resistance" 1t is policy which
is doomed to failure, and Virginia, I'M
fortunately, has devised no alternative
policy to which it can turn.

Temp Jones, wondering
why he found it so easy to
talk to strangers, found him.
self wondering in addition
why he often found it diff
cult to talk with friends.
A better word would be
acquaintance" These are
the ones difficult to talk to;
they come a dime a dozen in
all establishments; they set
the pace.
What Jones finally came
to realize was that one has
only a very limited acquaint-
ance with them, after all.
1t is based on similar work.
Here is old Bill, or some
such name, with whom one
has worked for many years.
Everything is fine between
you, but actually you know
nothing about him, and he
nothing about you.
If, for any reason, he
leaves. in short order you
discover the sad truth, that
you now have little in COM
mon.
You try desperately to talk
books, or records, but nothing
restores the old camaraderie.
You find he is no longer in
terested in your news-and
you, you are bored with his
news.
So a nice friendship comes
laboriously to an end.
X + 4
Then there are the friends,
let us insist on calling them,
who are zone theme" persons.
Each one of them comes at
last to be, not just a human
being, but music or books,
or sports, or medicine.
Each takes on the hue Of
his speciality. If you sound
him out on his interest, he
will talk.
If you speak OF anything
else, he has nothing to say.
So-and what an easy So
you always talk to him about
one thing only.
Temp Jones wondered il
women, too, have this fail
ing.
Are some of the younger
ones interested only in boys?
Do older ones specialize in
sewing, church, or home?
Maybe it is foreign mis-
sions. Many older women
seem to select this for a life
work; and a right good work
it is, too, Jones thinks.
All such persons, however,
make real conversation i'm
possible.
Real talk, that is, the
satisfying kind. But they are
very easy to handle, once you
catch on to them.
-
The trouble is, you are
bored with their one-theme.
The world is so full Of a
number of things, it ought
to be easy to find some topic
Of conversation with one seen
every day.
Perhaps the outdoor en-
thusiast is the worst.
You gaze at him in despair.
Must you, ought you, speak

Overdue Jail Relief

The Districts dangerously over
crowded penal institutions will get some
overdue relief as a result of sensible
new plan for handling drunk cases
in the Municipal Court. Chief Judge
Leonard P. Walsh, carrying out a re-
Mobilization recommendation of the re-
cent Karrick committee, has assigned
special probation staff to handle intoxi-
cation cases referred by the court. The
objective is twofold: Q) To help victims
of alcohol to become sober and indus
trious citizens. (2) To ease congested
conditions at the Jail and workhouSe
