A FEW YEARS AGO on a
visit to the new plant Of the
Baltimore Sun, a somewhat
older publication, the writer
was told that they left most
of their bound volumes
behind in their old building
on Baltimore street.
Microfilm has made this
feasible. A boy about 4 by 4
by / inches in dimensions
holds a spool of film equal
to a bound volume.
But at the Library of Con-
gress you can still get the
bound volumes of The Eve
ming Star, the Baltimore
Sun and the New York pa
pers, other American papers
and European papers going
back more than 100 years.
Paul Berry, head of the Sc
rails division of the library,
tried to explain it.
1--WE have two decks in the
annex for newspapers" he
said. That's about 10000
square feet.
Eve receive through gift
and purchase about TOO
American dailies and about
800 foreign dailies and week
lies. The American newspa-
pers are all gifts. We pay for
many Of the foreign publ
cations.
"MicrOfilm has solved our
space problem as well as
yours.
"Of the 700 American news
papers, we keep about 200 on
the shelves-all recent issues
are on microfilm.
"Of the 800 foreign news
papers, we keep about 200,
almost all in bound volumes.
European newspapers have
been slower about recording
their product on film, but
they are coming to it.
I'VE have had to build
shelves along the walls for
foreign papers and stack
them on the floor"
We went down into the
stacks. Except for their con-
tent OF books or bound vol
umes of newspapers, modern
library stacks are all steel
on concrete floors. And they
have the same odor-not
unpleasant - possibly from
the glue drying in the
bindings.

Almond Talks
Vigorously for
Public Schools
Federal Operation
Is Alternative, He
Says in Richmond

Gov. Almond Of Virginia last
night issued his strongest In
dorsement to date for contin-
ued public education. warning
that the alternative to limited
migration might be Federally
operated schools.
I'VE had better think a long
time before we decide to abolish
public education in Virginia"
the Governor told a meeting Of
the Chamberlayne Heights
Civic Association In Richmond,
the Associated Press reported.
While the Governor recently
has led his State on a new
course that attempts to con-
tain rather than prevent inte-
grafton, his recent statements
have been concerned primarily
with the wisdom Of letting To-
calities decide whether to con-
tinue public schools, rather
than a plea for their continue
ton.

Almonds forces managed to
exc out of a closely divided
General Assembly allows To-
calities to withdraw their finan-
cial support from public
schools, leaving only meager
State funds to continue them.
Massive resistance forces who
considered the overnor's
school plan too moderate
wanted the State constitution
changed so the State could pull
out of the school business alto
gether-a move which might
be renewed when the Assembly
next meets.
Gov. Almond told the civic
group that abandonment of
public schools in Virginia prob
ably would bring the lone
thing worse than a few Negroes
in public Enthusiastically
operated schools"
He cautioned that abandon
ment Of public schools is the
only way to prevent indignation.
But because Federal schools
are the alternative to a few
Negroes in a few schools. he
said, lets fight for our public
school system as long as we
can"
Warns Against Ill Will
Gov. Almond said the "emp-
! ty- headed" Supreme Court had
set back race relations, but 'let
us not harbor i'll will for men,
bers of other groups let's
talk over our troubles"
Gov. Almond said the Negro
holds the balance of power in
many key States.
Il have never harbored any

race, but there has been a mass
migration of the Negro to New

Germany is still under cer-

Britain also is increasing

we have an adverse trade
balance with our English

Pentagon officials and spe-
cialists are studying the
needs of those countries
which are receiving military
aid. Congress, which is bound
to cut down the 1861 appro-
priations, decided last sum-
mer to place in the hands Of
the Defense Department the
foreign military aid expendi-
lures which in the past had
been entrusted to the State
Department.
Congress- decision was
prompted by the fact that in
so many cases political con-
siderations prevailed over
military needs in the alloca-
ton of military aid. For in
stance, Pakistan, which is
bound to have a very impor-
.tant strategic role in the
event Of another war, was
kept on slim rations because
the State Department was
anxious to avoid offending
Prime Minister Nehru. And
the Indian leader has always
objected strongly to Pakistan
having an effective military
establishment.
Similarly, for political rea-
sons, we have been pouring
billions into Western Euro
pean countries which can
now well afford, because of
their spectacular economic
recovery, to provide for their
own needs.
At the same time we have
been stingy with countries
which were far more threat
ened directly with agrees

than half their budget on
their armed forces but were
unable to manufacture their
own equipment. This was
true of South Korea which is
technically still at war with
the Communists in the north.
1t is true about Wet Nam
which is seriously threatened
by the Communist Wet Mimi
forces. 1t is true to a lesser
degree of Formosa which,
while in a state Of war with

Personal Visits to Friendly Nations
Reported Proposed by Dulles

in personal talks and
negotiations"
When the Geneva Confer
ence of last summer was CIV
ing of its death rattle. and
with no last will and testa-
ment to survive it, the Presi-
dent acted on the Dulles
advice. He had several times
said he would not engage in
the high-level summit meet
ings unless there was progress
by the foreign ministers. But
Geneva was. in a very real
sense, the last card in that
deck He began to play a new
hand - that Of personal
consultations, discussions and
visits.
Whatever the end result Of
the two visits, the cold war
tensions were relaxed. The

and of the brutal humping
of Chinese might in Tibet,

The Indians, while firmly
holding to a promise Of non

sented a strong face toward
their massive neighbor in

of compulsion. It compels a
man to join a union or lose
his job. To overcome this
form of economic peonage,"
some States now have laws
or clauses in their consti-
tutions giving a worker the
right to work even If he
doesn't join a union.
The compulsory factor is
imbedded also in the collec-
tive-bargaining process. A
majority of the employees
chose the union as a bar
gaining agent. and the en-
ployer is required by law to
deal with that representa-
tive. AS for the minority in a

their right to bargain for
themselves as a unit They,

victims Of economic peon-
age"
Another element Of COM
pulsion arises when an en-
ploye is dismissed for at
tempting to organize a union.
The employer is compelled

state the employe. Evidently
Senator Morse isn't always
against compulsion. even
when there is no law specif-
ically governing the points in

cannot be solved in the absence

This is a natural wish. 1t is
the more imperative with him
because by April or May,
when the conference is held,
Dwight D. Eisenhower will
have but seven or eight
months left in office.
The Kremlin knows this
very we'll indeed. Members of
the Politburo will be watch
ing the progress of the polit-
ical campaigns in the United
States. They will check very
closely the policies of the
parties. the platforms
adopted, and the policies
enunciated. In a sense. the
summer platforms will be
more internationally mean
ingful than any in our time
insofar as they will influence
propaganda for or against us.
Those who go to political
conventions arguing against
protection of voting rights
and equal citizenship for all
who are Americans will hard
ly be serving either them
selves, their region or their

there was nothing inherent

inherent power to order a

The lawyers of the South,
