WASHINGTON - There is a
growing awareness in Washington
of the seriousness of the problems
being created by steadily increas-
ing imports of a wide-range of
manufactured goods.
For several years, / think many
people felt that only the textile
industry was being affectedely
imports. Many of these same peo-
Industry was being affected by
pile minimized the damages being
inflicted upon the textile industry.
It did not take long for the facts
to show clearly that industries
other than textiles were being SER
iously damaged. Many plywood
mills were forced to close as re-
suit of increasing imports from
low-wage countries. We also be-
gan feeling the effects of steel
imports, automobile imports, and
inports in many other industries.
The import problems have Great
ed very serious situations in many
areas of our economy in North Car
olina. The list runs from textiles
and electronics to dry cell batteries
and commercial fisheries products.
Only last week, for EXAMPLE, I
was among group that called on
Secretary of the Interior Udall con-
cerning the squeeze being put on
commercial fisheries in Eastern
North Carolina as a result of sharp
increase in imports of fish meal
from South America. In a rela-
lively short period of time fish
meal imports have increased to the
point that they threaten to fill
nearly all of the domestic demand.
Whether it is in textiles or COM
anercial fisheries, there seems to
be no one simple answer to all of
the import problems. 1t is very
true that we must trade with other
nations, but it is also true that we
cannot compete with many of the
low-wage countries Of the world in
completely open markets.
The big question we must answer
is how to regulate and control the

nations. feel that we must formu-
late policies that will enable for
eign producers to compete for GER
tain percentages of the domestic
demand of the United States. For
example, if we establish a policy
which says that we are willing to
import 25 per cent of our needs for
a particular product, this sets a
system of rules under which both
domestic producers and foreign
producers can operate, and at the
same time it offers flexibility to
allow for future increases in de-
mand which could be shared by
both domestic and foreign produc-
ers.
In the absence of some such con-
troll and regulation, l am afraid
that we are going to see many
American corporations do the maj
or part of their expanding in for
eign countries. I am also afraid
that we might also see the de-
struction of many Of our major
industries.
WASHINGTON - am very
happy that the Department of Ag-
! riculture has amended it's regula-
tons regarding farmers losing ac-
reage allotments when they sell
portions of their farms for nom
agricultural purposes.
Some adjustments in these regu-
lations have been needed for a long
time due 10 the growth of cities
and towns throughout North Caro-
lima and other States.
Until the regulations were
changed farmers who sold building
lots on their farms, for example,
were required to lose part of their
acreage allotments. This same rule
lapplied to land that was sold for
churches, industrial plants, shop
ping centers, etc. The only excep-
ton was land that was subject to
condemnation under the rights of
leminent domain, such as land taken
flor the construction Of highways,
schools, and ther public purposes.
AS time passed, a great many
very serious problems came about
as a result of these rigid regula-
tions. In many areas Of North Car
olina, these regulations resulted in
land being priced too high for in
dustrial expansion or housing de-
velopments.
The amended regulations will
mean that farmers can sell off part
of their land at reasonable prices
without losing proportionate per-
centages of their acreage allot-
ments. Many farmers own land
they would like to sell or develop
for non-agricultural purposes, and
the new regulations will enable
them to do so without being pena-
lized with reduced acreage allot-
ments.
The new regulations require that
both the buyer and the seller of
farm land must sign an agreement
that the land sold will not be used
for agricultural purposes. 1t will
be up to the county Agricultural
Sterilization and Conservation
COMMITTEES to enforce the new reg
ulations.
The changes in regulations will
not only give immediate relief to
many farmers who had been facing
a reconstruction of their acreage
allotments this year, but over the
long haul it will provide much more
opportunity for all our small COM
munities to grow and bring in new
industry and business.

were mostly graduate students,
fifteen in all-three Negro males,
one Negro female, four white wo-
men and seven white men. There
was one Episcopal clergyman.
Returning to the account Miss
Kerr said, GAS we neared Jackson
everyone felt fearful. Just before
leaving the train we sang the
Freedom Rider theme song, I'VE
Will Overcome. We were met by
the Jackson police who pointed
the way to the white waiting room.
After we entered the room we
were surrounded by policemen.
.'The Chief of Police said YOU
all move on and out of this here
station
I'VE. were asked twice, DO you
refuse this 0rder?' The answer
was always. yes.
''The chief then said, You are
under arrest. Please follow me.
I'VE were all put in one paddy
wagon and told not to sing, but we
sang our theme song. In the station
we were booked then jailed. Three
hours later we had our trial with
Jack Young, CORE attorney act
ing in our defense"
Miss Kerr told us the group was
charged with breach of peace and
tried as a group, by common a.
greement. The trial was quick and
the sentence was 5000 and four
months in Jail.
They were then taken to t h e
county Jail, but the white men
were kept in the city jail. 1t is a
custom to keep all Freedom
Riders together in Jail.
Later they were sent to the
Mississippi State Penitentiary and
placed in maximum security. They
were permitted out Of the cell two
times weekly.
Miss Kerr was happy to inform
us that they were not miStreated.
The cells were clean and the food
was edible. She did say that the
complete isolation was a strain on
the mentality, and. to break the
strain they sang songs and took
turns at lecturing on their favorite
subjects. s %ss
To keep them quiet the authori-
ties took away their mattresses,
forcing them to sleep on steel.
The greatest boost in morale,
Miss Kerr told us, was from the
original Negro southern Freedom
Riders. They have a spirit of non-
violence the whites don't seem to
have.
We were very anxious to find
out how she was released, and she
informed us that they simply
place an appeal bond which is
paid by CORE. Miss Kerr was
released two weeks ago, and she
cannot reenter the state of Miss
issippi for three years.
We asked this. question: why
did you 90 to such lengths to fight
in Mississippi when there is so
much to do in California;"
With perhaps the most convic-
ton of the entire session, Miss
Kerr responded: "As an American
1 feel I am a part of big move
ment. | feel also that this country
belongs to Negroes as well and !
feel a responsibility for Mississippi.
Furthermore, the California prob
lemS-housing and employment
take more time and money than
we students have to give"
AS a final remark, Miss Kerr
told us, Il am glad that / went.
L feel that / have made little
contribution to a big movement.
These activities will increase. They
will win their battle"
Miss Kerr said with feeling that
Freedom Riders are urgently
needed. If anyone feels willing,
they should contact the local
CORE group in Tucson or the
lOffice Of The Arizona Sun.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE?
Continued from Page One,

Continued from Page OneJ
to consider these facts, there is no
conclusion to reach except that
white businesses in Phoenix are
just responsible to help meet the
charity and social needs of the
Negro community as for those of
the white community; perhaps
more so since they give practically
no jobs to Negroes. The Negro
community's need for charity,
SUNNI er campships, collie g e
scholarships, sponsors of Boys and
Girls States, Anytown, and what
have you, are as much the reSp0n-
siblity of white businesses as are
the similar needs of the white COM
munity.
However, lets face it; a case
as critical and demanding as
Kneeda Bells calls for more than
occasional spurts of aid in the
way of money and blood. It calls
for continuous planning and c0ntin-
uous organized WORK, and this
is the obligation of the Negro COM
munity with, what help feel sure,
could be obtained from concerned
members of the white community,
to do this planning and this work.
Communication within the Negro
community is difficult but t h e
white press, the television. and
the radio proved in this latest in
stance that they will help. This
could be a new organization just
for this and similar cases. Or is
it just another job for some ex-
isting organizations? This latter
has its hazards. Among existing
organizations there could be jeal-
ousies and competition for status
that would prevent the full COOP
Grafton of the community with the
sponsoring organization. This could
be true even when the cause is as
important as keeping a constant
blood supply for a brave but help
less member of our community.
There is no government aid for
many kinds of cases in our COM
munity and at present there is no
community organization for bring
ing these cases to the attention of
the whole community. We Negroes
have seen so much helplesSneSS
that help is needed. This we have
proven many times over In my
opinion the best organization to
find way to put the whole COM
munity behind a proven cOmmun-
ity need is the organization to
which most of our ministers be-
long. Those ministers who do not
belong, l believe, would cooperate
in building such an organization
as would represent all the church,
es, not for competition but for
cooperation. There are not many
of such cases and Kneeda Bells
should awaken us to our Christian
duty as community. Until then
let us hope that the healthy young
people learn what it is to be blood
donors
Kings are to help the people,
Wealth to enrich the poor,
knowledge to lift up the lowly,
STRENGTH THAT THE WEAK
MAY ENDURE.

er Scott.
