either the conservation or human

''The equation that | see," said
Metcalf, ''is we have growing popu-

Metcalf called attention to a four
fold increase in cost of national for

1851. "The acreage-burned curve is
rising slightly after four decades

Red Action GROWING
In U.S., FIJI Chief Says

The FBI reported last night
that the Communist Party in
America has expanded its
operations during the past year
in the face of Supreme Court
ruling that it must register as
a Soviet-controlled organiza-
ton.
FBI Director j. Edgar Hoover
in his annual report, cited these
Communist activities launched
or stressed during the year:
"Domestically, the party con-
tinued its efforts to gain the
confidence Of Negroes and other
minority groups, constantly
picturing itself as a true leader
Of racism. 1t hopes to indoc-
trinate more Negroes with
Marxist dogma through the
publication of "Freedomways,"
a new quarterly review of the
Negro freedom movement.
Added emphasis also was
put on its drive to gain more
support in labor unions and in
the field of women's activities
|. Propaganda operations
have been intensified and plans
were made to publish a mid
week edition of The Worker.
a.. Party functionaries have
been visiting and speaking on
college campuses at every OPP
portunity. Leading the drive
to subvert and recruit young
people is Mortimer Daniel
Rubin. national youth director
for the party, who also is edit
ing the magazine New Hori-
IONS for Youth" a recently

started monthly which the party
hopes will win over those stu
dents who are sitting on the
fence"
Mr.. Hoover reported the Com
munistS continue to use front
organizations to further their
aims. Major front activities
during the past fiscal year, he
said. were in the racial, peace,
disarmament, nuclear. political
and trade-union fields.
Followers of Cuba's Fidel
Castro. he warned, also con-
tinue to pose a serious threat to
national security. The dangers
OF Puerto Rican groups which
advocate violence in their drive
for independence have been
increased. he said, through the
introduction Of communism into
the movement and encour-
agement offered by Castro.
Domestic intelligence prob
lens springing from the Carib-
bean area" he reported, have
greatly increased in the past
few years with the establish
ment of a Communist regime in
Cuba"

tered on the international as
poets of the dope traffic.
He said the subcommittee is
interested at this time in the
source of the narcotics and
what can be done through dip
lomatic channels to control the
overseas sources.
Preliminary investigation, he
said, indicates that interna-
tional treaties in the narcotics
field are not being enforced ef-
fe0ively. He said more legiS-
lation may be needed to enable
this country to take more effec-
tive action to prevent narcotics
from coming into the country.
Rings Uncovered
Several international rings
have been uncovered in the
past few years by customs and
narcotics agents and Senator
Mcclellan indicated more clues
are being explored along this
line.
The subcommittee broad
powers in the field Of organized
crime specify that it should in
vestigate how crime syndi-
Gates use interstate or inter-
national commerce to further
law violations and whether
present Federal laws are ade-
quate to curb them.
Senator Mcclellan is stress
ing the international aspects
of the narcotics inquiry because
stiff laws passed in the last
decade have already dealt a
sharp blow to the interstate
aspects Of the dope traffic.
With several Investigations
under way simultaneously, the
chairman thought it unlikely
that the subcommittee will be
ready to hold public hearings
until Congress comes back in
January.

$4,000 last fall to fix a game
with the University of Mich
igan.
Senator Mcclellan said sub
committee investigators have
turned up more leads to bribery
attempts. He indicated that
other gambling rings may be
involved.
Fortunately" he said, Every
few are succeeding in exploiting
college players. Wherever they
are, we want to expose them.
Investigators indicated thss.
players who have been ap-
preached are reluctant to re-
port the bride attempt for fear
a teammate might have sue
cumbed to the gamblers offers.
The investigators are hopeful,
however, that more players will
come forward.
Finger Put on Accused
At the September hearing,
the Oregon player pointed out
a man who he asserted offered
him a $4,000 bride on the eve
Of the Oregon Michigan game,
The man was identified as
Frank Lefty Rosenthal, de-
scribed by the committee in
vestigators as a big lay-off
bettor. Lay-off men provide a
form of insurance for the
bookies. They accept large
scale bets placed by bookies to
neutralize possible losses.
In another Phase of the con-
tinuing crime investigations,
Senator Mcclellan said some
pretty substantial informa-
ton" has been developed on
the sources Of narcotics and
the means of getting heroin
into the country.
Global Aspects Stressed
The subcommittee's narcotics
investigation, he said, is CEN

Oxford Playground
A Busy Place Of
Youth Recreation

With nearly 100 children en-
rolled in its program and taking
part in the activities daily Mon
day through Friday, the oxford
Playground is rapidly gaining the
reputation of being one of the
busiest Fairgrounds in Saint Paul.
In addition to the general ac-
commodations offered at the play
ground, there are nearly twenty
organized sport areas available to
the young people. The program is
tailored to fit the interest of every
child who wishes to take part.
Persons passing the playground
during the week at about 4:30
pm, will see nearly fifty-five
boys practicing football, about two
dozen boys darting over the bas-
ketball court; and 10 to Is girls
going through those calisthenics
peculiar only to cheer-leaders.
There are many small tots, both
girls and boys, romping on the
swings, slides, merry-go-round, and
idling time in the sand boxes. A
close look will reveal some oldsters
having a grand time pitching
horseshoes.
In a recent interview, John Pet
tiford, president of the Oxford
Boosters Club, stated 1.-THE Ok
ford Playground is rapidly becom-
ing a community institution, and
we of the Boosters club feel a
keen responsibility to do every
thing possible to accommodate the
recreational needs of the young; to
direct our energies toward keeping
pace with the needs of the times
and creating a program that will
reach all the children and aid the
family unit to develop the finest
young men and women. Mr.. Petit
ford added, I'VE believe that if
we are successful in this we will
have supplied a huge deterrent to
juvenile delinquency. To do this
job we need the support of every
parent and the support of the COM
as well. We invite you to
join the Oxford Boosters. The
cost is little and the returns are
quite beyond measure"

Mississippi Courts Used For
Revenge
But the Freedom Riders, them
selves, are still paying their debt.
The Mississippi courts, smarting
from the effective impact of the
riders" crusade in the Magnolia
state, are decreeing vindiCtiveness
by the use of exhorbitant bonds
for those who appeal sentences.
Although the Freedom Riders
are charged by Jackson authorities
with breach of the peace" a mis-
demeanor, the courts are raising
the bonds for those who appeal to
81 500 each.
The Freedom Riders March"
being sponsored by the Twin City

raise as much toward bond pay
ment for the six Minnesota Free
dom Riders as possible from the
Twin City Negro community.
The sponsors of the Sunday
March" are also hopeful that it
will trigger support from through
out the state. In a statement sent
to news media throughout the area
Council President Matthew Little
stated: 1T is fitting and proper
that our community should set
the pace, as we are hoping our
Freedom Riders March will do;
but it is incumbent upon every
Minnesotan who believes in justice
to join us in helping to see that
these brave young students do
not suffer unduly for the courage
they have shown"
Obie Ripper is general chairman
of the March" and he has secured

direction.
