Red 'HooIiqonism'

It would be interesting and in
Structive to have detailed report on
the background of those so-called
Americans (memberS of something
dubbed the African Committee on
Liberation) who have just made an un-
holy show Of themselves in the usually
august chamber Of the United Nations
Security Council. Certainly their
riotouS conduct, which obviously has
been quite deliberately staged, merits
unqualified condemnation as a shock
ingly unpatriotic demonstration against
the best interests Of our country and the
free world at large-a subversive demon
stration unabashedly supporting the
Kremlin's poisonous Congoiese line.
Moreover, to use a favorite word
Of the Soviet propagandiSts, this dis
graceful "hooliganiSm" at the U. N. has
not only been matched but exceeded
around the world-in Moscow, in War
saw, In Belgrade, in Cairo, in Peiping
and In numerous other places where
the Communists or their fellow travellers
are in a position to push buttons, ring
bells or issue ukaSes to stir up immediate
mob action as easily or as mechanically
as one brewS instant coffee, There can
be no doubt about the Shrewdly or
ganized nature of this pre-calculated
trouble-making. It is all part Of the
Red totalitarian pattern OF words and
action designed to undermine the unity
and security Of men and nations on the
free side of the Iron Curtain. And it
should be noted that these push-button
mo5 scenes stand in marked contrast to
the order which has prevailed so far in
the Congo itself. Presumably one Of their
major purposes is to incite the Congolese
to violence.
This pattern Is clearly part Of
the ceaSeleSS Communist offensive that
has now reached a new peak Of
intensity In connection with the Congo,
where events conceivably could explode
into warfare Of the most deadly kind.
Premier KhruShchev and his Cocoon
SpiratorS, for reasons known only to
themselves, evidently feel that their
own special brand Of "hooliganisn" will
serve them well at the present juncture.
But they ought not to make the mistake
Of concluding that everything Is in the
bag for them merely because they are
capable Of recruiting shiftless mobsters
to do their dirty work for them in places

clined to recognize the accession Of
Kashmir to India"-an accession which
actually has not been fully accepted in
principle anywhere In the world except
in India itself.
Unfortunately, there is no tribunal
that can hand down a meaningful
judgment on the 1ndia-C China dispute.
Only to suit its own ends would Peiping
accept any verdict from: any source
that offered less than what it already
has taken unilaterally. If India has
learned this lesson the hard way, and is
embittered by it, it may be lesson
we'll learned.

Secret Weapons

. When the Eisenhowers dwelt in the
White House, the President used to say
that Mamie" was his secret weapon. But
John Fitzgerald Kennedy has secret
weapons of his own.
One of these was unveiled when
President Kennedy spoke to the National
Industrial Conference Board. If sweet
talk can lure bird down from the tree,
or sell Democratic gospel to an unre-
constructed Republican industrialist, the
President won the NICB battle going
away. But that was just the beginning.
The real blockbuster was unloosed
when the photographs Of Caroline and
John F. Kennedy, jr., were spread across
the land. It will be long, long time
before more appealing secret weapon
is fired against an unsuspecting foe, and
we cannot help wondering what the
likes of Senator Everett Dirksen and
Representative Charlie Halleck are going
to do about it. If they try to compete
photogenically with Caroline and her
baby bEGther the G. o. P. is as good as
dead.

A Once-PreciouIs Metal

When the nir,e-ineh aluminium cap
was placed atop the Washington Monu-
naent In 1884, aluminium had not yet
attained the status M q. routine scon-
2structioll material. ID those days itlwas
generally regarded asa precious metal,
for use chiefly in jewelry and for such
special decorative jobs as Gaping the
Monument. The process Of extracting
the light metal from certain clays was
.dtfncult and costly. Just two years after
the cap was placed on the Monument,
however, revolutionary discovery by
young Oberlin College graduate led to
aluminum'S shift from the precious
metal class to that Of an abundant,
relatively cheap metal Of multitudinous
uses. It Is appropriate, therefore, that
Americas aluminium industry should
pay its respects this week to Charles
Martin Hall, whose electrolytic process
for extracting aluminium from bauxite
and other clays was announced In
February Of 1885. {
Young MIR. Hail did not foresee, Of
course, the tremendous impact which
his discovery would have on the building,
automobile, appliance and other indus
tries. Research in the use of the metal
was to develop a variety OF markets for
aluminium beyond his widest dreams.
In fact, he had much difficulty at first
in having industry adopt his extraction
process and in convincing them that
aluminium could be utilized in many
ways and for many articles. He
persisted, however, and the rest is
history. The Aluminium Association,
composed Of At members Of the industry,
owes great deal to Mr.. Halls ingenuity
and vision. To show its gratitude, 1t
will present to Oberlin an aluminium
museum, named in his honor-a we'll
deserved tribute to a little known
American. a."

Defends Byrd

Senator Harry F. Byrd.
Democrat Of Virginia, is old
fashioned, doesn't represent
the thinking Of the people Of
Virginia and should join the
Republican Party. This was
the opinion expressed by the
ultra-ultra liberal Senator
from Pennsylvania, Joseph
Clark.
I doubt If President Ken
nedy authorized Clark to
ride" Byrd out Of the New
Frontier" group. Clark needs
all the publicity he can get.
He is going to have a rough
time when he seeks re-elec-
ton and needs to keep his
name before the public.
I resent Clark'S inference
that Byrd does not represent
the thinking Of the people Of
Virginia. I believe the voting
results speak for themselves.
Virginia politics do not op-
crate like they do in Pennsyl-
vania. Senator Byrd controls
the politics in Virginia. He
answers to the people; not
to political bosses. Clark is
wasting his time trying to
purge one Of the greatest
statesmen of our time.

Criticizes Robertson

That was q low. mean deal
that Chairman Robertson Of
the Senate Banking Commit
tee pulled on DR.. Robert c.
Weaver and ct the same time
questioned the integrity Of
President Kennedy. He knew
the President would not have
appointed anyone to an i'm
portant post, whose loyalty
was questionable. It was an
Insult to both Of them. OF
course. Mr.. Robertson would
not admit 1t but the fact that
DR.. Weaver is q Negro was
the main reason for his ac-
tions. In 80 doing he merely
gave expression to the preju-
dice which characterizes him
and the other Southern COL
leagues who opposed the ap-
pointment. Being a graduate
Of the same Christian insti-
tuition In Virginia as Mr..
Robertson, it's very difficult
to understand his mind.

crossroads but in the gutter

it is all the more vital that

that is to say, first Of all,
that the existence. Of these

they appear incompatible

Since the president Of the
D. c. Transit System has
been bold enough to give
public utterance to his hope
that the vital decision on bus
conversion be definitively re-
solved by q snowStorm for
which his company was not
prepared. the appointed de-
tenders Of the commonweal
should with equal boldness
reassure the people that no
such grave decision shall be
allowed to hinge upon the
selfserving declarations Of a
franchise holder whose bus
operations depend for their
ultimate economic juStifica-
ton upon a fictional base Of
concealed subsidies and du-
bious accounting criteria Of
a kind which the 1860 Fed
eral Transportation Policy
report Of the Commerce De-
partment has attacked as
posing a grave threat to "the
American free enterprise sys-
tenn" Indeed, neither the
ruin Of the central city nor
the health Of the working
populace should pivot upon
those ephemeral considera-
tionS.
Forced to limp along with
1890-vintage maintenance
equipment and an antiquated
power supply system. the in
herent superiority Of the
electric cars has been kept
carefully camouflaged by
those who seem determined
to impose upon the commun-
ity a costly highway system
enormously wasteful in re-
spect to its capacity as a
prime mover Of persons. Scru-
pulously avoiding any refer
ence to the relative economies
in total cost Of operation as
we'll as in the use of valuable
urban space, the enemies Of
rail transit speak only of
traffic engineering" that is,
the movement and storage
Of internal combustion vehi-
cles, not persons. Their
systematic downgrading Of
Washington's existing rail
facilities echoes the jealous
virulence Of Americas pro-
fessional aste-makers."
To be sure, it is sometimes
argued that no practical So
luton can be expected apart
from some ad hoe compro-
mise with certain powerful
special interests whose own
enlightened self-serving tends
to make of them the natural
enemies of rail rapid transit
because it is potentially the
most economic and efficient

'Perfidy' in Asia

The Indian governments long and
careful study Of the India-Red China
frontier dispute concludes that the
"perndy" of Peiping will be clearly
recognizable to the world. In such
broad terms, this is an assumption that
Is easily challengeable. For It Is an
obviously justifiable commentary on the
state Of affairs in the world today that
per1dy, perhaps like beauty, lies In the
eye Of the beholder In this circum-
stance, certainly. Chinese Communist
military occupation of thousands of
square miles of Indian territory, a
contemptuous disregard of historic
national boundaries and an arrogant
assumption Of jurisdiction over un-
offending but powerleSs and hitherto
mi-autonomous frontier states will
not be recognized as >perhdyI in any
capital behind the Iron Curtain. r..
All Of these, Of course, are merely
part and parcel of the Unsuitable Com
munist appetite, whether Russian or
Chinese, to deyour whatever land and
people are within defenseless reach Of
their rapacious hunger. It Is ironfc in
way that India, which has followed an
almost mystical course Of neutralism
In the harsh reality Of the cold war,
should be so crudely victimized by its
larger, stronger and more purposeful
neighbor. 1t is ironic, too, that what
seems to have sparked the Indian
indignation as much as anything else
is the fact that Peiping has now "de-

Government Ethics

] see where President Ken
nedy has set up q panel Of
lawyers to advise regarding
standards Of ethics in the
Government. This may result
in q set Of rules to regulate
the moral conduct Of the
Government personnel. I
wonder how naive our rulers
and legislators can get.
The old laws Of right and
wrong have never been re-
pealed, as far as I know. The
Ten Commandments and the
Golden Rule seem to operate
just as good now as they did
in Old and New Testament
times. A person knows in
stinctively whether he is
doing something right or
wrong. Then why do we need
an additional set Of rules to
govern our conduct? OF
course. you might say that
some people do not seem to
have q conscience and are al
ways taking the wrong step.
Granted, but q set Of rules
or laws will not change his
conscience which regulates
his morals.
Proper education without
compulsion might alleviate
much Of the difficulty. And
a pretty good rule to follow
is this-if there is any doubt
in O persons mind as to
whether o certain act is right
or wrong, you can be fairly
certain that 1t Is wrong.
If rules Of ethics and
standards Of conduct are TO
be applied to the people in
Government service, then it
should apply to all, and this
means Congress as well. Why
doesn't Congress apply the
conflict Of interest" laws to
itself in addition to requiring

to learn that Representative
Judd is not by any means
alone when he says There

that the majority Of Amer

There Is not the slightest

So If, as Mrs. Eager sug-
