people not lnLelugenC, not clVl-
lied. not self-controlled, and the
not-knowing-what may come of
craftsmanship with these on the
loose, exploited on one side like
children and pretended on the
other to be fit for self-govern-
ment and world councils. The
sudden delivery of world politics
and majority African tribesmen
and their vain. vague and often
visions lea ders is bringing
craftsmanship nearer the Drinks
than in the days of Dulles. So
many more intangibles. uncon-
trollable factors, are involved
now.
They say the Kennedy foreign
policy continues the Eisenhower
one. We stil oppose Russiau
communism. true, and still wage
the cold war. But it is not like
the Eisenhower policy if we are
to be blind to the incompetences
Of Africa. We must do business
with them. help them, take risks
for them. yes, but in no continual
ton of what that vote of ours
against Portugal and for her An
COLA Africans seemed to mean.
There is no folly in sighl any,
where in the world as fatal as
American Runaway from the
Western European nations now
would be. a turn from NATO and
the more NATO must come to
be. turn from civilized and ad-
vanced allies. Africa may be the
great issue. but we can face
Russia there best and help Africa
most if we hold to the Western
world whose hope we are but
which is also our hope.
YOUTH WILL BE SERVED
;" It will also be swerved.
Youth Turns to the Right"
Raymond Moley captions his edi-
torial in a recent Newsweek. He
explains their leftist professors
by the fact that 1.-The average
age of most teachers of the social
sciences is in the 4O's, around
the age. of the new President.
These men and women were in
their formative teens during tn
latter years Of the depression
and the heyday of Rooseveltism.
Those earlier impressions linger
1t is not strange that they
believe that the times return
with the same problems and the
same appropriate remedies"
But the current generation of
college men and women, Mr..
Moley says truly. who were
born around 1910. never expert
enced a depressed economy and
never felt the influence of the
Second New Deal. Their teens
have passed in a period of great
prosperity and of more conserva-
tive thinking at high levels. They
have found free enterprise inter-
esting and worthy Of support"
Mr.. Moley quotes a recently
published Directory of College
Conservative Clubs. published by
the increasingly central and i'm
portant Y o un g Americans for
Freedom. t343 Lexington Avenue,
New York 16. N. " in which
conservative clubs are listed in
81 institutions in Is states"
Political parties will ig-
more these young people at their
mortal peril"
But / THINK 1T is more than
a matter Of the professors hav-
ing known depression and the
students not. It's a matter, also,
OF professors like rich mems
sons not really living under the
profit system the free enter
prise one = like. the rest of us
but looking to the state or the
institution for their income as the
rest of us do not.
AS for the students. their new
found conservatism is a proper
turn Of the wheel. Progress is not
a straight line. not just more and
more of the same thing, but an
upward spiral.
OF GREAT POSSIBLE import
is the motion of 10 white parents
In Jacksonville. Fla, to be in
cluded as defendants along with
the county school board and sup
erintendent in an indignation suit
filed by the NAACP attorneys.
The parents assert that the
school officials as public officials
cannot offer the defense these
parents can. Their own main
point is the psychology Of the
white people.
The Is have strong public
opinion with them. Of course. and
