Airline travel taxes were reduced by

Letter To Editor
Take Christian
Approach To Build

Editor of Herald:
The views expressed in the let
ter of DR.. Maurice Allan which
appeared on November 10 in
your pepper seemed to us pro-
foundly Christian wise, and
timely.
We have been blessed in
Prince Edward County with an
amazing display of patience and
calmneSs. Has not the time come
to build together for the future
in a spirit of reconciliation and
mutual respect? If by the grace
OF God, we could now forget the
hurts and mistakes of the past
and both whites and Negroes
have been hurt and have made
miStakes-We can provide for
ourselves and for our children
a sound basis for a brighter fu-
ture.
Surely the coming Christmas
season makes us long for the
peace on earth and the good will
among men of which the angels
sang.

have resulted therefrom.

Human vs.. Property Rights

There is a fine, humanitarian
ring to the cry, Human rights
come before property rights"
But where property rights are
denied. human rights fade away.
Nevertheless. the Unite d
States Supreme Court now is
wrestling with not one but seven
cases which will sorely test this
doctrine: That ownership of
property carries with it the right
to use that property as the own
er sees fit.
These particular cases for the
most part grow out of the nu-
merous "sit-in" demonstrations
held throughout the South in re-
cent years. The issue common
to all these cases is the alleged
right of Negroes to demand and
receive service from proprietors
who refuse to serve them.
A related case (arising in
Maryland) poses the same basic
issue in another set of circum-
stances. Here, Negroes contest
the right of a privately-owned
amusement park to bar them
from that recreational facility.
Vital TO Owners
The Supreme Court decision.
or decisions, in these cases will
be Of vital concern to every
American who owns - or who
patrOnizeS - a store, restaur-
ant, an amusement park, or any
other privately-owned establish
ment which seeks to attract
business from the public = or
from selected segments Of the
public.
In continuing stream Of de-
clsions for over a decade, fed
eral courts have knocked out
virtually every remnant of state
laws which require racial segre-
cation in public places.
But. thus far, the courts have
protected the right Of the indi-
vidual proprietor to cater to
such customers as he prefers.
and to refuse service to others.
The Supreme Court itself has
declared that the equal protec-
ton OF the laws" guaranteed by
the l4th Amendment applies
only to government action. In
the case of Shelly VS.. Kraemer,
the Court added this significant
note:
IT h at (l4th) Amendment
erects no shield against merely
private conduct. however dis
criminatory or wrongful"
Actually this right of private
decision to serve or not serve
customers is a double-edge

Moss Should Join
NAACP Forces

Editor of Herald:
l have read with considerable
interest the many letters appear
ing in The Herald concerning
DR.. Moss and his unusual DO
sition concerning the sc hool
situation in Prince Edward. I
have been tempted to add my
voice to the many who have
spoken out in disagreement with
DR.. Moss. It was not until l
read a letter written by Mr.. B.
M. Bradshaw, of Rice, that I
decided to write you a short but
to the point letter. have known
Mel Bradshaw for some 40 years
and know him to be a mo S t
outstanding citizen of the county.
/ can just see Old Mel rearing
back as he took his seat to pen
his letter.
I feel that due to my being
mostly raised at Tuggles Tank,
having married a Farmville girl
and educated my daughter at
LongWoOd. I have some right to
put my mouth in.
Why doesn't DR.. Moss resign his
position at Longwood or get a
job in a place more to his lik-
ing, where he can spend all Of
his time migrating the races.
He holds an important position
with a State college, and l don't
see why we, the taxpayers,
should have to support DR.. Moss
in his trades. There is no
danger Of starving him if that
should be of any concern. The
NAACP would gladly employ
him and he would be much hap
pier there anyway.

BabsOn Talks About Advertising

BABSON PARK. MASS, Now
22+Advertising does not need to
be defended against its critics:
it can defend itself. l am quite
aware that tremendous sums Of
money have been wasted in ad-
vertiSing. but think how much
money has gone down the drain
in drilling for oil or mining for
gold. When the right media and
techniques are used in adver-
Using. they can bring tremen-
dous rewards. just as can drill
ing in oil-rich terrain or mining
in promising lodes. Advertising
is. of course a risk, and it
should be sold as such.
Chance Worth Taking
Nevertheless. 1t is a risk well
worth taking. l can think of
few CANDLES more likely to pay
off. 1t is obvious from the re-
cord that officials of American
companies agree with me on
this, 50 their OUTLAWS must have
been profitable indeed. When the
final total is figured for 1862,
I expect that both national and
local advertisers will have shell
led out about s. billion for ads
in newspapers and magazines.
This represents a most spec
tacular channeling of cash into
newspaper advertising.
Proof of the success of adver-
Using is found in its steady
growth of popularity. Ten years
ago, for example. expenditures
for newspaper and magazine ad-
ver0s.ng totaled only $3h
billion. while they amounted to
only $11a billion just twenty
years ago. For some years a
steadily greater part Of corpor-
alton costs have been going into

advertising, and l am certain
that this trend will continue over
the years ahead. It is interest
ing to note that. along the way,
those concerns doing the great
est amount of advertising have
nearly always been at or near
the top in their fields.
Advertising Helps Everybody
Some labor publications tend
sometimes to complain that
companies are putting too much
money into this type of publicity.
Union officials want higher
wages for their members. and
more and more expensive fringe
benefits, : and often think Of
advertising as mere diversion of
money that should go to the
employees in one form or an
other. Hence, company officials
should make plain to their per-
sonnet the value of advertising
in holding up production and
keeping employment high. A
weN-run firm is careful not to
waste funds in profitless advert
ising. Results are always care
fully studies. and directions are
pursued that bring about greater
sales. which in turn lead to larg-
er payrolls.
Newspaper advertising is to q
great extent responsible for our
having the highest wage rates
and the best standard Of living
in the world. There could be no
mass selling without newspaper
advertising. Mass production
would be an iznposdhhty with
out mass selling. Without mass
production. our standard 0 Iv-
ing could not conceivably have
reached its present historic
height.

right. preserving to the custo-
mer the right to patronize or not
patronize any given establish
ment.
Go to Courts
But that is not good enough
for the integrationists who seek
to force their way into private
commercial circles where they
are not wanted.
They cling to their right to
boycott establishments which do
not meet their demands, but
now they seek a Supreme Court
d e els sion which would make
those establishments acce t
their patronage regardless OF
the impact on other patrons.
A two-fold argument is ad-
vanced: That the proprietors
are SO caught up in the pattern
OF state law and custom that
their decisions to discriminate
are really not private decisions
at all. and that the arrest of Ne
groes for trespass translates the
whole affair into one of state
action rather than private ac-
ton.
If the Supreme Court now
undertakes to deny to the indi-
vidual property-owner the right
to treat his property as he sees
fit, the entire fabric Of our free
society may begin to unravel.
In the words of John Locke,
THE reason why men enter into
society is the preservation of
their property"
Implicit Rights
Implicit in this arrangement is
the right of the individual to do
what he wishes with his own
property to use it or abuse
it according to his own inclin-
alton.
When integrationists seek to
deny property rights by prating
OF human rights" they would
do well to consider the words
of Pope Plus x:
The right Of private property,
the fruit Of labor or industry, or
OF concession or donation by
others, is an incontrovertible
natural right; and everybody
can dispose reasonably of such
property as he thinks fit
That pronouncement, afte r
all. is but a logical expansion Of
the Biblical inquiry in the goth
Chapter of Matthew:
rs it not lawful for me to do
what will with mine own?"
The present Supreme Court,
however, does not list the Bible
among its sources OF authority.
Sociology rules the roost these

Smaller Cities Important

Many corporations located in
or Immediately outside Of big
cities place most of their OUTLAWS
in national media, but more and
more are recognizing the value
of local placement. For instance
even some of the biggest con-
Germs are giving more attention
to small dailies and weeklies. l
expect this tendency to increase
over the coming years. Surveys
have indicated that people OF
small communities read adver-
tisementS with great care.
In fact. l should say that l
still consider newspapers, both
large and small. as a safe in
vestment. This is particularly
true where there is only one
newspaper which controls a CIV
en- area, with the focus in a
smaller city. True, production
costs are moving upward, but it
is still relatively easy to raise
the price Of a newspaper by a
cent or two. People still want
written news, and the more they
pay for paper the more care
fully they read both the news
and the ads. This means that
the advertising space becomes
more valuable.
Advertising And You
Occasionally I hear somebody
say. What is advertising doing
to help me?" That is an easy
question to answer. It is helping
you. for one thing. to hold your
job 81 weeks out Of the year. It
Is helping to up your take
home" pay. It is increasing en-
ployment. so that your children
too can get a good education. All
Of US should encourage newspap-
er advertising.

Race Mixing By Executive Fiat

It is unclear for the moment
how widespread will be the eff
feet Of the Presidents execu-
tive* order forbidding racial
discrimination in Government
aided housing. ~ There is no
doubt, however. that the conse-
Quence will be additional social
and economic strains for the
country.
What we have is an attempt
to alter the social structure of
the nation by presidential fiat$
1t is another resort to force by
government - without so much
as a gesture Of sanction by the
legislative branch - to mix
people of different races regard
less of whether it is good for
them or of their preference for
asSociating with their own kind.
The races are to be thrown into
a more intimate contact than
ever before and what this will
do to the moral and ethnologi-
cal integrity of the races can
only be awaited with a great
deal Of forebOding.
The economic impact could
very we'll be devastating. There
is the very real possibility that
federally assisted housing**-
programs affected by a federal
interest through loans or insur-
ance- will suffer a serious SET
back. Beyond that is the long
range effect of deterioration of
neighborhoods, accelerating the
flight from urban centers of
those who have the means and
desire to choose their own neigh
bors. There will be less enthusi-
aSm, if we are not mistaken, for
dealing with urban blight. It is
not hard to see a new kind of
segregation one in which the
economically favored isolate
themselves in protected COM
munities. leaving the less fortu-
nate to fare as they may with
the unwanted benefits" of race
mixing.
No amount of pious posing
about civil rights can make the
picture look any more appeal
ing. The President's* orderI
means tension and perplexity. In
the first place, it was dictated
by political considerations, for
qualification of racial minority
and the desire for its votes are
given greater weight than the

Dulles Airport

THE national capital has new air
port and while it arrived late it is
something the whole nation has an in
terest in Incredible as it now seems,
with jets having been in operation for
years, the capital Of the United States
has not had an adequate and safe jet
airport until now.
International passengers, including
ambassadors and others. have been for
ced to land in New York instead of
Washington. Few flights from overseas
have terminated near Washington here
tofore.
All that is now being changed. In
fact, the new Washington airport -
Dulles International = is the most mod
ern in the world in some respect. The
one major difference or innovation is
