Reds in Caribbean and Africa

When the former French
Colony of Guinea became
independent, Sekou Toure, a
man who as late as 1856 was
a card carrying Communist,
became the chief executive. A
photostat was sent from Paris
shortly before he visited
Washington where he was
received with the same hon
ors as President de Gaulle.
He was pleased at his recep-
tion but did not change his
spots.
The Congolese army with at
least the tacit approval (some
say at the inStigation) of
Prime, Minister Patrice Lu-
mumba celebrated its inde-
pendence with an orgy of
murders, arson and rapes
against the white settlers. The
moral character Of Lumumba
is well established. A few years
before becoming the leader of
the Congolese nationalists he
was in Jail for three years
for embezzlement. He was
thus excellent material to
further the cause Of inter-
national communism in the
Congo.
We received Lumumba in
Washington with a l7-gun
salute and accorded him all
the honors due his newly as
sumed rank. Our policy
makers believed we could
detach him from his bosses
in Moscow and Peiping. While
in Washington he protested
that he was not MoScow's
man, just as Castro did last
year. But his actions belle his
words. He still is threatening
the United Nations with direct
intervention Of Red troops in
case he does not get his way.

international communism
has implanted itself within
the last two years in two i'm
portant strategic areas in the
world: The Caribbean and
parts of Africa.
The Soviet Union and Com
munist China have firmly
established themselves in the
Caribbean through the dicta-
torship of the Castro kids.
And because we frown on
dictatorship, we played an
ostrich policy as to the real
objectives of the CastroS in
Cuba.
The administration and
news media described the
Castros at first as idealists
but by no means under Com
muniSt discipline. If we han
died them tactfully, it was
contended, they would in
evitably recognize the
dangers of Com unist
dictatorship.
Even the influx of thou
sands Of advisers from the
Soviet Union, the satellite
countries and particularly
from Communist China into
Cuba was taken lightly by
Washington. 1t would be
against our beliefs, it was
said, to interfere in the do

ton even if it affected the

obsolete in these quickly
changing times. ; When we

Alabama Court
Rules Against
New York Times

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug
6 (AP).-A judge has ruled that
the New York Times does busi-
ness in Alabama and is subject
to suit for libel in State courts
But Circuit Judge Walter B
Jones decision, potentially far
reaching in its significance,
would not necessarily apply to
other newspapers.
Judge Jones said his decree,
handed down yesterday. was
based only on the facts brought
out in a pre-trial hearing last
week. The facts might be diff
ferent, he explained, in another
case involving another paper.
The judge ruled that the
Times does business in Ala
bama because, he found, it
gathers news in this State, So
licits advertising and sells
newspapers here.
The ruling. unless set aside
on appeal beforehand, sets the
stage for trial Of three $500, 900
libel suits filed against the
Times by Montgomery's three
city commissioners.
Another suit, for 81 million,
has been filed by Gov. John
Patterson, but it was not in
volved directly in Judge Jones
decision.
All four suits grew out of a
full-page advertisement in the
Times soliciting funds for the
legal defense of the Rev. Mar
tin Luther King, jr. The Ne
gro integration leader was fac
ing trial at the time on charges
of falsifying his State income
tax returns. He later was ac-

Such moments lift one out
Of the sloughs Of dependency
which lie along the road

One of these somehow zany
moments has been produced

words these days are mean
ingless. Only actions count.
The Reds have paralleled
the action in Cuba with sim
liar action in the newly Gre.
ated African republics where
full independence has been
rushed headlong to areas un-
prepared for self-govern
ment. The tribal system is
still very much alive in Cen
tral Africa. Hence there can
be no national unity. Inter-
national communism does
not bother about such trivi-
alities.
The Communists chose
their puppets carefully long
ago. Thus. while We courted
and treated with utmost
courtesy the chief executives
of some of the new African
states in the expectation
that they would stay out of
the Red orbit, the Russians
and the Chinese had already
in their pockets the president
and prime minister of at
least two key republics"
The Reds exploited the
African leaders antagonisms
against the Western "imperi-
alist capitalists" and made
them their tools, fully con-
vinced that the rest of Gen.
trail Africa will fall into the
Red orbit if Communism is
established in two key states.
The fact that cannibalism is
still a custom in the former

than 276 individuals were

authorities for the practice)

nearly three hours. "They (the

orders would get top priority.
He implied this meant military
material as well as other goods.

demanding concessions.
