The war with all of its waste,
horror, and inhumanity did
something else for the young
Negro who survived. 1t provid-
ed him with GI educational pro-
grams which made it possible
for many young men and wom-
en- to secure training in the
colleges, and the universities on
the CT bill, which most of them
would not have had the money
to obtain otherwise.
Thus the best educated
group of Negroes in the his
tory of the nation were in
troduced into the job market
four or five years after the
end of World War II.
Evidence of the truth of
what we have asserted may be
found in the roundup of diff
ferent" jobs Negroes are hold
ing in the Twin Cities which we
are reporting in this edition.
BY no means are the jobs we
cite, or the persons we name,
the total count. We have picked
jobs at random so as to offer
a glance at the progress which
the group has made in the job
areas and which has contribut-
ed to the generally good econ
Omic condition of Twin City
Negro community.

yesterday by the National

30-year-old plan for a River

ier," Staff Director Richard H.
Kraft said. 1T means that the

will eventually carry heavy

conception of the George

way linking Maryland and Vir-

and should not be abandoned" "

GERMAN SCHOLARS VIEW:
Nietzsche Foresow Todoy
BY GEORGE WILSON
Star stan Writer

II Friedrich Nietzsche, the
18th century German philoSo-
pher who questioned every
thing and everybody. could
walk around present day Ger
many for a while, he would
declare sadly: II told you So"
That is the view, anyway. of
DR.. Erich Heller, distinguished
scholar who has made an in
tensive study Of Nietzsche and
his works. DR.. Heller spoke last
night in the Library of Con-
gress auditorium on The Mod
ern German Mind: the Legacy
OF Nietzsche." He is professor
OF German at the University
Of Wales and the author of
several essays on German lit
erature.
During a press conference
preceding the lecture, DR.. Hell
Ter said Nietzsche predicted the
current theological war hang
ing over the world. He also
fonatold mans struggle with
scientific discoveries.
DR.. Heller said Nietzsche
doubted mans ability to sur
vive the death of God. Man,
according to Nietzsche, would
lavish material goods upon
himself and pull covers over
his mind to keep from asking:
What am I here for? What
Is the purpose of life?
THE waters Of religion re-
cede and leave behind morasses
and shallow POOLS" Nietzsche
wrote in decrying what would
happen once people realized
God was dead. Where we
live. soon nobody will be able
to exist"
Eventually, Nietzsche be-
heved, man would try to create
heaven on earth because he
would feel there was no heaven
beyond the life on earth. Once
this happened. Nietzsche pre-
dicted, man would transfer his
religious zeal to an all-out
political effort to create this
heaven on earth. The ideo-
logical conflict we are now in,
Nietzsche said, would be the
result.

overlooked two points in fore
casting such a gloomy future
for man:
/. Christianity might be true
2. The necessity for apply
ing intellectual tact and pa
tience in dealing with estab-
lished patterns and beliefs.
DR.. Heller said Nietzsche has
influenced greatly the writing
of German writer's who have
come after him. He said Met
zsche'S doctrine of self hatred
is evident among the young
writer's in Germany today.
Evening star., 1960-02-09

According to DR.. Heller
Nietzsche believed the time il
fast approaching when secular
crusaders, tools of mans COL
lective suicide, will devastate
the world with their rival claims
to compensate for the lost
Kingdom of Heaven by setting
up on earth the theological rules
Of love and justice which, by the
very force of the spiritual de-
rangement involved. will issue
into the rules of cruelty and
slavery"

Votes Down
3 Zoninqs

The Montgomery County
Civic Federation last night
voted its opposition to three
rezoning applications now
pending before the County
Council.
One involves a proposed zon-
ing amendment to permit fun
eral homes In certain residen-
tial areas as special excep-
ton to the R-90 and R-60 zon-
ing categories.
The federation, in its stand
opposed location of funeral
homes within any residential
zones. At present, they are per-
mitted only in the ca COM
mercial zone.
Also opposed was a petition
to rezone an 8.5-acre tract on
the projected Washington cir
cumferential highway near
Oakview and Hillandale from
R-90 to the IL industrial cat
egory.
A plea to rezone a 97-acre
tract on the northeast portion
Of the Cabin John watershed
area from rural residential to
I-3 industrial park classiflca-
ton was the third zoning issue
opposed.
In another action, the Fed
Grafton urged that creation of
reduced speed zones and erec-
ton of warning signs and de-
vices near schools be left to the
discretion of local officials along
State highways rather than the
State Roads Commission.
The SRC was given this au-

however, suggested a substitute

vened on January 13 the rules
were changed by Almond oppo-
nents to require a two-thirds
vote, instead Of q simple ma
jority. to go into q committee
Of the whole.
Administration leaders did
not oppose this because, they
said, 1t would take only a
simple majority in the 40
member Senate to change the
rule back to its original form.
Action in House
Chairman c. K. Hutchens of
the House Finance Committee
said today that he would an
nounce next week q date for
public hearings on the Gov
ernor's 2 per cent sales tax
alternative. This is part of a
studied effort to delay further
consideration Of the revenue
measure until after the House
Appropriations Committee re-
ports the Governors $1.32 bill
lion budget bill covering the
next two years.
They hope that by presenting
the essential needs of the State
to the public and the General
Assembly, sufficient pressure
will be brought to bear to raise
the additional revenue called
for by the Governor.
The Governor contends that
about $50 million in additional
revenue is needed to meet
essential needs.
Yesterday, a House Appro-
priations subcommittee placed
the States minimum needs at
$84 million. 1t said that some
Of the Governors requests
could be dispensed with and
that other demands not in
cluded in his program should
be met.
May Raise Income Levy
One way to raise the addi-
tional revenue without impoS-
ing a sales tax, the subcommit-
tee said, would be to increase
the income tax most heavily
In the lower salary brackets.
The present rate on net tax
able income is 2 per cent on
the first $4,000. then 3 per
cent on the next $4,000 and S
per cent on all over $4,000. The
subcommittee recommended 3
per cent of the first $4,000 and
5 per cent on all over that in
come. This would produce an
additional $50.7 million.
Individual income tax ex-
emptions would be made to
conform to Federal tax regu.
lations. At present, the tax
payer gets a $1,000 exemption,
and an equal amount for his
wife plus 5000 for each child.
Federal exemptions are $500
for each.
Exemptions Curtailed
Thus, a childless couple
would get a $1,000 exemption
compared with $4,000 now al
lowed; a couple with one child
would get $1,000 compared
with $4,000 at present while a
family Of four would get the
same exemption.
Larger families would get
greater exemptions than are
provided in the present law.
The change in the income
tax rate and exemptions would
give the State $50.7 million in
the biennium; a proposed lOI
per cent tax on spirits and
penny a bottle boost in the
beer tax would bring in another
$30,154, 900.
There is no recommended cut
for localities in the new pro-
posal and no cancellation or
reduction in retail or wholesale
merchants license taxes as the
Almond bills proposed. How
ever, the new plan does contem-
plate a new formula for taxing
