A member Of the MissisSippi
legislature today accused At.
torney General Robert F. Ken
nedy Of deliberately white
washing" earlier charges Of
Communist influence in recent
racial agitation.
This latest in a series OF
attacks by Misissippians on
the Attorney General was
made by State Senator John
C. McLaurin, testifying before
the Senate Commerce Com
mittee against a Federal law
to ban segregation in places OF
public accommodation.
Cites MOnrOney Letter
Another witness against the
bill today was william Loeb
New Hampshire newspaper pub
Usher, who argued that better
race relations must be achieved
by education and religious
teaching. He said Congress
cannot pass laws that will force
people to like each other. and
any attempt to do so would
create a police state.
Mr.. McLaurin's charge grew
out of q letter the Attorney
General wrote to Senator Mon
roney, Democrat Of Oklahoma,
recently in which he said that,
based on all available informa-
ton from the FBI and other
sources, I'VE have no evidence
that any Of the top leaders OF
the major civil rights groups
are Communists or Communist
controlled"
The Attorney General added
that "this is true as to DR..

moved from its country-like setting in western
Maryland to Washington.
With the shift came change in name, in
outlook and in opportunities.
This month Wesley Theological Seminary
begins its sixth year on the attractive campus
adjoining American University. With five
years of solid achievement behind the MethO
dist school since it left Westminster and settled
on Massachusetts, avenue NV, President Nor
man L. TrOtt is anticipating more important
future for the seminary.
"A world dimension has come into our
educational system since relocation from West
Minister" DR.. TrOtt says. I'VE moved out of q
rural setting which boxed in our vision, TO the
mainstream Of the world. The cross currents Of
contemporary life are moving across our
campus"
These cross currents impress themselves
upon Wesley students in many ways. One is the
number of personalities bearing international
regulations who visit the campus These
leaders lecture, visit classes, talk with the
seminarians. BY their presence they put the
world and the dimensions Of the ecumenical
(cooperativel tendency facing religion today
into living perspective.

Garbage In the Sky"
Who'll Clear Air
Of Damage and
Deufh-D Dealing Dirt

| WASHINGTON, D. C.-(CNS)-
SO far the United States luckily has
escaped London's fate, where dirty
air killed 1000 persons during five
December days in 1852. Yet dirty
air costs farmers and others $11 bill
lion a year in damaged crops and
property, and it's getting worse.
! This garbage-in-the-sky is tossed
there by industries and by auto and
truck engines, witnesses told Sem
ate subcommittee recently. Chicago's
Mayor Richard Daley said $4,000
tons of airborne pollution swirls over
his city every day. The best way to
see the sky, he said, is to visit the
Adler planetarium.
London's 1852 disaster brought ac-
tion, Vernon Mackenzie. a Public
Health Service official, told lawmak-
ers. Parliament passed clean air
act, spent money to train experts
who could detect pollution, and
cracked down on violators.
When another mass of dirty air
hovered over London last December,
$50 persons died. Controls initiated
as result of Britain's clean air act
"can be credited in part with the
much lower death TOLL" Mackenzie
said.
Industry spokesman recognize the
danger. They're willing for Congress
to spend SIS million a year to train
persons to track down the sources of
air pollution But they don't want the
federal government to do anything
about it. That, they say, should be
left to the states and cities.
State control sounds lawfully
good and awfully democratic" said
Senator Maurine Neuberger Cd
Ore.), but the real reason industry
opposes federal enforcement is that
it can more easily have its way
with local and state officials.

turing Chemists Association said in
dustry has to satisfy stockholders,
who expect return on their invest
ments. "We have to be very objective

FRANKLY SPEAKING
By FRANK SMALL

A cheer went up from the At pas
sengers on the Helena Valley Inter-
state highway dedication bus as it
started to return from the Gates of
the Mountains interchange Tim
Babcock had finally changed gears
in the 13 and a half tom vista dome
bus without grinding the bejasus out
of them. Norm Hanson, area director
for Greyhound, shuddered visibly
every time the maneuver was at
tempted.
Highway Patrol Chief Alex Ste
phenson said nothing during the trip
but if he doesn't request Babcock
to take chauffeur's license exani-
nation he will be derelict in his Off
cial capacity.
Speaking briefly before the gear
grinding ride, Babcock told SO cars
and bus from the Girls Vocational
School that Ed Cowan, Bureau of
Public Roads chief, could be as
sured that this was one area where
