Here's One Alternative

H. E. Gilbert, president of the ALL
CLIO Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Engineers, has this to say: From
the beginning the railroads have failed
to meet their :. responsibilities = in
collective bargaining. Their latest an
nouncement, If final, leaves the en-
ployes no other alternative than to
prepare for whatever railroad manage
ment endeavors to force upon the en-
ployes and the American public"
Before the American public takes
this doleful and thinly-veiled strike
prediction at face value we would like
to point to one other alternative. Rail-
road management has repeatedly Of
fered to submit the work rules dispute
to binding arbitration. The union has
just as consistently refused. SO, before
giving up in seeming despair, Mr.. Gill
bert might try the alternative of fol-
lowing arrangements example.

That Flexible CeiIino

When everything else is In the
doldrums, Congress can always turn to
the public debt. Annually since 1854,
and SO times since 1917, the debt limit
has been readjusted, mostly upward. So
1t was no surprise to find Representative
Wilbur Mills carrying the ball for an
extension Of the temporary 5000 billion
ceiling against the opposition of Charlie
Halleck's Republican team.
Mr.. Halleck was sincere, we are sure,
in urging that cutback to 1907 billion
would put some of the spenders on
notice that they cannot spend willy
nilly and expect Congress to raise the
debt ceiling"
Now this would be cheering news,
indeed, II debt ceiling really meant
anything these days. The fact is that
present commitments will push the pub
iic debt up to $3O8 billion by September
/, when the ceiling will automatically
drop back to $685. billion unless the ex-
tension is granted.
Mr.. Mills foresaw that squeeze when
he warned that cutback on the ceiling
would seriously handicap the Treasury's
flexibility, cramping its borrowing ca
pacity, further upsetting the balance of
payments and increasing the gold out
flow.
Whatever else the debt ceiling is, 1t

On With the Dance

If the hockey, basketball and circus
performers who have played in the Coli
scum (Uline Arena) dropped in again
on october and 8 they would be in for
a mild shock. Cavorting on a new, spa
cious stage will be "The Stars Of the
Bolshoi," the heart of the famed Russian
ballet troupe.
The Coliseum was never meant for
the ballet but neither was the Capitol
Theater intended for oblivion. Since
the latter soon will come to pass, the
former was improvised by a group Of
impresarios who will make the most of it
until the Nations Capital has a more
adequate facility.
Perhaps the idea came from Madison
Square Garden which is bigger and
barnier than the Coliseum, and has had
fair luck with ballet. Perhaps it was the
only possible solution when Patrick
Hayes decided he would bend every
effort to keep ballet alive for this areas
aficionados.
At any rate, until further notice,
for the dance the Coliseum is the place.
Balletomanes may give thanks for small
favors. Because of the large seating
capacity, the top price for the Bolshoi
will be $3.50 instead Of the $12 bite at
the Capitol. This is big break for the
middle class. 1t will be just fine until
the Cultural Center comes along.

Pekinq on Race

Red China apparently is going to
conduct an about propaganda drive to
make the most Of our country's current
racial travail. Mao Tze-tung himself has
plainly indicated as much. AS chairman
of the Chinese Communist Party, he has
issued an extraordinary personal state
ment Che rarely speaks out formally on
any subject) Calling upon peoples every
where to support the American Negro
against the Kennedy administration
policy of "enslavement, oppression and
discrimination"
The informed American Negro, Of
course, must be startled to hear that
President Kennedy is pursuing policy
of such cruelty. But Chairman Mao
doesn't care about that. The truth,
after all, is the least of his interests or
worries. AS far as the United States is
concerned, he and his Peking Cocoon
SpiratorS are intent primarily upon CIV
ing the world an utterly distorted and
mendacious picture of our race problem
"a picture drawn and painted, like the
groSseSt of distractions, in violent con-
tradiction to reality and in keeping with
the best techniques Of the Big Lie, as
perfected by Adolf Hitler and his Com
muniSt counterpartS.
Thus, among the 1000 words of his
unusual statement, Generalissimo Mao
has had this to say: II call upon the
workers, peasants, revolutionary intel
lectuals, enlightened elements of the
bourgeoiSie and other enlightened per-
sonages of all colors in the world-white,
black, yellow, brown and so forth-to
unite against the racial discrimination
practiced by United States imperialism,
and to support the American Negroes in
their struggle" Macs appeal includes
the whites, but quite obviously it is
aimed chiefly at winning friends and
influencing people throughout the vast
and turbulent world Of Asia and Africa.
To that end, Peking seems to be all
set for great verbal assault on the
white people Of America. The racialiSm
involved here comes as no great surprise,
and the Chinese Communists have made
clear that it applies to Soviet whites"
as we'll But this is dangerous ground
that Mao treads on. While he tries to
inflame Negro Africa against America,
he must reckon with the possibility that
he is inflaming 1t also against Asia,
whose people flor example, the East
Indians in British Guiana) do not al
ways get along with the "black man."

Juvenile Punishment

Fiscal Hope Wrecked

The effort to secure a fair deal
for the District through congressional
acceptance of the Presidents proposal
for measuring the Federal obligation
to the city has run aground on the
shoals of unrelenting House opposition.
We trust that something will come of
Senator Bibles expressed hope that a
future Congress will reconsider and
adopt the formula. This would relate
the Federal appropriation to taxes
which otherwise would be paid on
property that has been removed from
the tax lists because this is the Nations
Capital. The question which this raises,
however, must await some other day
for it's answer.
Meanwhile, the HouSe-Senate con-
.fereeS have agreed on proposed au-
thorization which, though lacking the
desirable long range aspects Of the
Presidents formula, would meet the
immediate needs Of the city.
This agreement calls for a Federal
payment of $50 million and Federal
loan ceiling for the District of SITS
million. In its recent action, the House
set the corresponding figures at $45
million and $3.50 million.
AS everyone knows, an authorize
ton is not an Appropriation the
unhappy fact is that for the past eight
years Congress has actually appropri-
ated substantially less than the amounts
authorized. This years conference re-
port, however, has already been adopted
without dissent in the Senate and it
was unanimously approved by the House
conferees. So when the House acts,
presumably tomorrow, there is every
reason to hope that it will concur.
If so, all that will be left is the
appropriations hurdle. No one should
underestimate it. The city's need, how
ever, has been abundantly demon
strated. If Congress will only treat the
District as the Nations Capital instead
Of as an unwanted stepchild, and If
it will look with open eyes at the
financial dilemma which results from
the city's unique status, a fair appro-
priation will be forthcoming. This is
all that the people of Washington ask.
They should not be compelled to &C
cept less.

Break for Prince Edward

1t should be recognized that the
free private school system which will
be opened this fall in Prince Edward
County is at best. stopgap device.
Nevertheless, 1t is a development which
should be welcomed by all rational
people.
Negro children in Prince Edward,
their parents being unwilling to accept
a segregated private school system,
have gone without any formal educa-
ton since public schools were closed
four years ago to avoid deSegregation.
And without the prospective free pri-
vate schools, which will be available
to all, at least fifth year without
education would be in prospect.
AS announced by Governor Harri-
son, the Prince Edward Free School
Association will be run by a board
composed of distinguished men-three
white and three colored. 1t will be
financed from private sources and will
recruit teachers wherever it can, with
preference being given to former colored
teachers in Prince Edward The neceS-
sary physical facilities will be made
available by the county Board of Super
viSorS.
Obviously, this is considerably less
than an ideal arrangement. 1t cannot
be expected to result in desegregated
education in the county, for most Of
the white children doubtless will con-
tinue to attend their own private
schools. It should serve, however, to
provide an educational opportunity for
Negro children until the deadlocked
public school controversy in the county
is settled through the courts or by some
other means. This is an eminently
worthwhile result, and all who con-
tributed to it are to be congratulated.

Guilt for Hiroshima

While I agree that it is
now time to be more hopeful
because a nuclear test ban
seems at long last approach
ing, I certainly disagree with
your disparaging attitude in
the August z editorial re-
garding Hiroshima and our
annual orgy of guilt
feelings" To anyone ia
miliar with the history
OF the war - knowing that
the Japanese had made sew
eral overtures for q peace
settlement, and knowing that
Truman never received the
the advice Of scientists to
to conduct a demonstration
before dropping the A-bomb
the cities Of Hiroshima and
Nagasaki must remain for
ever a blot on our national
conscience.
Then, too, the effects Of
this bombing have lasted far
longer than even the worst
saturation bombings previ-
ously. In 1862 over so more
HiroShimans died, some of
them young people in their
teens, whose only crime had
been a proximity to the bomb
Is years ago. Anyone reading
the pitiful accounts Of the
thousands of survivors who
still live in fear and pain
would not display the callous-
ness seen in your editorial.
One must also remember
that the scientists who ad-
vised Roosevelt to develop
the bomb were genuinely
convinced that the Nazis
were working on nuclear
fiSsion and with it might
conquer the world. 1t is
evident to many informed
people, prominent historians
as well as scientists, that the
Japanese A-bombings were
both unnecessary and i'm
moral. No invasion would
have been needed, so those
mythical American lives saved
are not much of an argu-
ment.
While guilt feelings may
indeed be useless, we can at
least strive to make amends
for the continuing suffering
by aiding the survivors, as
a few responsible groups are
doing.

Thoughts on March

I am not the leader Of the
colored race, but I am q
member Of the same and the
Pastor of the Friendship
Baptist Church First 81 H
Streets S.W. I am much con-
cerned about the March in
washington on August 20. I
think as many others that we
have been most patient for
the past 100 years waiting for
first-class citizenship. The
leaders Of our race deserve
great credit for working so
calamity for the same. We
must not be unmindful Of the
fact that thousands OF white
friends who have been work.
ing for the same objective far
outnumber the members OF
their race who have been
working against us. These
friends will be marching with
US August 20. They have also
been on the picket lines with
us and have even dared TO 60
to jail to suffer with us.
Words Of appreciation by
our leaders TO them for their
acts OF loyalty have been long
overdue.
I pray that our leaders will
delete the word demand"
from their addresses, which
will get us nowhere, and use
words with more conciliatory
tones which will touch hearts
and change minds and give
us greater results.

is great rallying point for politicians.
Everybody decrieS the ever-climbing
figure, but none so vigorously as the
Republicans and Southern Democrats.
They agree with Mr.. Halleck that the
debt ceiling ought to exert pressure on
spenders. That is, they agree until the
next spending bills come along.
Until Congress really stops spending
on unnecessary programs, there is Moth
ing left but to make 1t legal with a
workable debt ceiling, which Congress
now is in the process of doing-again.

Rule by Decree?

Defense Secretary McNa-
mara's directive placing off
limits to military personnel
any place practicing discrim-
nation is an affront to any
American citizen who be-
heves in democratic govern
ment and separation Of pow
ers Of the U. s. Government.
The armed forces of this
Nation were meant to pro-
tect and uphold the laws of
the Nation, not to legiSlate
or force new ideas upon the
civilian inhabitants Of the
country by direct force or
tacit economic bludgeoning.
The existing laws of al
most all U. s. communities
were made by the people, and
under U. s. law, only the
voice OF the people can re-
scind them; meanwhile, no
matter how distasteful these
laws may be to some Of the
so-called leaders Of this
country, they must be obeyed
until expunged through due
process Of law.
Are we now witnessing the
return Of the Federalist Par
ty with each top official
jockeying for position in a
hoped-for aristocratic So
ciety where any chief can
rule by decree?

PEOPLE AND PROBLEMS
No. ! of Red Chino's Millions
By RALPH McGHL

emphasis was Delng placed
on peasant revolts. From
this time on, Macs thinking
ran contrary to that Of the
Russians. The Kuomintang
shortly split into left and
right wing elements. Chang
began elimination Of the
Communists.
Mao was on his own. Soon
Macs head, or dead body, was
worth a quarter million silver
dollars to any person who
would produce either item.
Mao and his army began the
long march, about as far as
from Mexico to Alaska. From
that time on, Mao depended
on the peasants. During the
years Of this march, Stain
gave aid and comfort to Chi
ang. If Stain could not have
absolute obedience from for
eign Communists, as Tito
later was to learn, he would
be an enemy. Khrushchev's
speech to the Twentieth
Party Congress In 1855 said
Of that period In China's his
tory that Stain had been
prepared to break with the
Chinese Communists. Could
he have done so, he would
have arrested Mao. Stains
only interest was Russian.
Chiang's Release Explained
In December Of 1896, q
curious, shocking incident oc-
CURED. Chang Kai-shek
flew to Sian, in the ShenM
province. where the COM
mander Of the Generalissi-
mos Manchurian troops was
demanding to fight the Jap
anese rather than carry on
the civil war. To the con-
sternation Of Chang and his
government, there was O mu-
tiny and Chang was arrested.
He was dangerously near be-
ing shot. Mao sent Chou
En-lai, who negotiated and
supervised Chiang's release.
This was a puzzler. Macs
later explanation was that II
Chang had been executed,
the Kuomintang would have
split into an anti Communist
and a pro-Japanese faction.
The latter would have invited
In the Japanese, who would
then have been able to invade
and occupy the whole coun-
try. Chiang's release carried
with 1t, a pledge TO end the
civil war and oppose Japan.
There was a third reason
Mao knew Stain was In the
process Of making new deals
with Chiang-against Mao.
THE Emperor OF the Blue
Ants" has come q long way.
Within a very few years, we
should know II he Is to lead
the Communist world-or be

County COMMITTEES, where
they already control 1,490 Of

an embarrassment to the
rest OF the movement because
its members have tended to
extremist positions and an
Identification with the Boz
hemian beatniks who are the
remnants of an earlier and
more colorful day in the VIZ
lage.
Mr.. de Sapio has settled
upon these beatniks and the
MacDougal street coffee,
houses which they operate
and frequent as the target Of
his campaign. He maintains
that the bongo drums and
late hours Of their cellar
cafes are a violation Of city
ordinances and an affront to
a community which has
found responsibility through
slum clearance.
Not Involving Wagner
Although he can comfort
ably ride the mayors decline
in popularity, Mr.. de Sapio
is not involving him or any
Of the city-wide issues in his
appeal, which Is directed at
a probable turnout Of few
err than 10000 voters. He is
bolstered by his stature with
the italian population and
by the fact that his current
occupation as an insurance
brokerage official does not
permit him to be whipped
any longer as q boss.
Many New York politicians
feel Mr.. De Sapio was unfairly
vilified in the 1861 campaign
and that Mayor Wagner
grossly misused him as an
excuse for his own failures.
His great mistake, in the
professionals consensus, was
a pursuit Of publicity and
acceptance as q political SCI
enlist. AS soon as he became
well known, he became vul-
nerable as a target.
The reformers take q much
more sinister view Of Mr.. De
Sapio in seeing him as q
product Of the Italian under
world and q link to vice and
corruption. But they are In
hibited, in expressing these
suspicious, by a lack Of
tangible evidence.
They also are inhibited In
combating his return, by the
candidate they are running
against him. Edward Koch
is a young and energetic law
yer Of jealous reform intent,
but he lacks the compelling
qualities that would give
decisive meaning to his cause
of improving the democracy
within the Democratic Party.
The great weakness Of the
reformers, In the Village and
elsewhere, has been that
many are willing to work for
reform but few are willing to
run for office. $500 20
1t seems possible that Mr..
De Sapio may succeed in this
first step Of his comeback.
But he will still confront
many obstacles and a long
road to regain his former
significance in city, State and
national politics.
