Suvogery Against Missionaries

U. N. than does the United
States. This was agreed to
by the Roosevelt administra-
ton in 1945 on the theory
that the free world would
still have a huge majority.
Unfortunately. with the ad-
mission Of half-civilized
countries Of Africa, it is easy
for the Communists today to
infiltrate them and obtain
control of their votes in the
u. N.
The recent massacres in
the Congo, for instance, are
being attributed to troops
under the leadership of An
toine Gizenga, a Communist
Stooge who was then Deputy
Premier Of the Central Congo
government.
There will be little chance
OF seeing a U. N. resolution
passed which would author
ize collective military action
against the perpetrators of
the atrocities just reported
from Leopoldville.
The soldiers who COM
mitted the crime were in the
forces Of the Central Congo
lese government, which is
fully recognized by the U. N.
Unless steps are taken to hold
the central government ac-
countable for what has hap
pened and a show of military
force is made, the incidents
are likely to be repeated.
The time for forceful action
to protect foreign lives and
property in the Congo would
seem to be at hand.
Whenever a country shows
itself totally incapable of
self-government, the estab-
lishment of an international
trusteeship would appear to
be a logical formula to apply.
The Congo is desperately in
need of such a set-up. It can
be continuously supervised
by the U. N. Complete self
government could be granted
when the capacity to live up
to international obligations
was assured.

The massacre of at least 18
missionaries and many other
civilians in the Congo points
up the failure of the United
Nations expedition to restore
order and to impress the
native troops that the lives
and property of foreign citi-
Zens must be respected.
So much emphasis has
been placed on "self-deter-
mination" and "indepen-
dence" for the African coun-
tries that relatively little at
tention has been paid to the
utter indifference of many
local groups to the need for
protecting foreign residents.
The U. N. has admitted
many countries as members
which are incapable Of self
government at this time.
They will certainly not be
educated or trained for this
role unless the U. N. is will
ing to take steps to punish
the murderers and enforce
principles Of international
law.
Unfortunately. massacres
have occurred in recent
months without any action
having been taken by the.
u. n, and it may be that the
native groups now feel free
to do as they please in the
belief that no disciplinary
action will ever be taken
from the outside.
It wasn't so many years ago
when powerful nations were
quick to take punitive steps
if any of their own. citizens
or their property were mo-
lested. In recent years the
propaganda against colo
nialism"-stimulated by Com
munist sources-has caused
the major powers to hesitate
to use force to protect their
nationals. They are reaping
the consequences of their
policy of neglect.

True Sense of Values Believed Vital

is moving from one plateau
of knowledge and civiliza-

In one way or another this

Prof. Gordon Allport, one

about it in Columbia Univer-

the most generally discussed
issue of our time-values.
1t is, however, the values

The Senate Foreign Rela-

against open hearings on the
Congo situation because the
news is better and they did
not want to run the risk of
upsetting the apple cart.
At the same time they
avoided what might have
turned into an acid political
struggle in which both par
ties could have been hurt.
This is because Senators of
both parties are among the
extreme right-wing critics of
United Nations policy on Sc
cessionist Katanga.
It Is rather unusual to find
Democrats in power siding
with the far right on inter-
national issues. But Senator

But this illusion was short

But it was our policy in
the Congo which caused the

from which it has not yet

WeSterners regarded the mill

spirit of the Charter. The
fact that the United States,
the champion of the op-
pressed, agreed to organize
an airlift to ferry troops and
ammunition to the U. N.
troops did not arouse as
much resentment as the
Washington policies toward
the Katangans themselves.
Europe understands 1ully
that colonialism has had its
day and has become as ex-

Rail Aid Bills
BY A Star staff Writer

RICHMOND, Jan. The
first group of a series of bills to
promote more passenger traffic
and give tax relief to railroads
were offered the General As
sembly yesterday by Senators
John A. K. Donovan of Fair
fax and Falls Church and
Charles R. Fenwick of Arling-
ton.
One Of the measures envi-
sions a plan for rapid transit
rail facilities in the median
strips Of express highways
leading into metropolitan areas,
such as Washington, D. C.
The program was recon-
mended by the Virginia Ad-
visory Legislative Council, which
noted that passenger traffic on
Virginia railroads has been fall
ing off at an accelerated pace
since 1916. Testimony from
Stuart Shumate, president of
the Richmond, Fredericksburg
and Potomac Railroad, was
that the decline has been ap-
proximately 80 per cent in this
interval.
Six Bills introduced
Six measures were introduced
yesterday and about six more
are to follow.
One of those now before the
Senate would authorize the
State Highway Department to
acquire median strips for fast
rail transit service between
dual-lane divided expressways
in metropolitan areas.
Use of such median strips is
being considered in the Wash
ington metropolitan area as a
means of moving persons in
and out of the city without ex-
cessive demands for new auto
mobile expressways.
Said the VALC report:
I'm the metropolitan areas
where commuter service either
exists or may develop in the
forSeeable future, the findings
of competent authorities on
urban matters have shown that
the present trend to provide
ver-increasing networks of
throughways for the movement
OF the individual automobile to
be uneconomic, removing as it
does valuable land from the tax
rolls. :"
The report cited the Con-
gress Street expressway in Chi
cago as what might be accom-
plished under its recommended
tions.
Rail Line Cheaper
It said a double track rail
line on that expressway can
handle as many people as "a
highway lanes like those on
the expressway and the cost
of the rail line was $4 million
per mile as compared with $40
million per highway mile"
Among the other measures
are these:
A resolution asking Congress
to repeal the 10 per cent ex-
else tax on passenger fares.
A resolution asking the Fed
eral Government to begin a |
pilot transportation project in
Virginia designed to stimulate
railroad traffic.
A bill authorizing repeal of
the franchise tax on designated
passenger trains. A bill to con-
tinue a study of the passenger
carrying problem for another
two years.
A resolution asking Congress
to relieve certain restrictions
the railroads claim have been
placed upon them.
A second series Of bills by
Mr.. Donovan will be introduced
to deal more specifically with
State tax relief.
