Coated Stock

In these hot times in the old town,
there is hardly Washington male
office-worker who works in his office
with his coat on.
Likewise, there's hardly a Wash
ington worker who wears coat while
driving his car.
On the other hand, every one of
them carries coat hanging in his car.
When he parks, he reaches for the coat
and puts 1t on to enter the office, where
he takes 1t off and hangs 1t up. Total
wearing time: Five minutes at the out
side and much less on the inside.
We respect the respect the coat car
rier shows for street and elevator, but
couldn't 1t be done more easily2
Women, with their customary common
sense, solved the same problem years
ago. A woman can have her shoulder
blades, her spine and various areas else
where cooling in the breeze, but she's
dressed as long as she wears white
gloves.
We don't suggest white gloves for
men; they'd get them filthy too soon.
But how about token lapels2 Worn by
themselves, around the neck, detached
lapels would save on cleaning,
salvage parts Of ancient garments and
let us all be like the penguin, comfort

Haitian Revolt

The days Of Haitian Dictator Fran
co.'s Duvalier may be numbered as a
result of the invasion of his strong
hold by exile patriots. The attitude Of
Americans can only be one of gratifi-
cation that the regime of Duvalier is
lettering.
It seems certain that the United
States has no part in the invasion but
officials are making no secret Of the
fact that the fall Of Papa Doc would
be pleasing to this country.
The rebels, according to all reports,
are pro-American and have no faint
of communism about them such as in
fected Cuba after Fidel Castro over
threw Fulgencio Batista. A rebel VIC
tory doubtless would result in swift
recognition by the United States Of the
new government.
The forces of General Leon Cantave,
If they succeed, cannot be expected to
set up Democratic government in the
American mold, however. Haiti Is not
ready for any such luxury at this time.
There are too many men In the Carib-
bean country who live by the gun and
the machete and consider it q way Of
life. The new government would have
to remain under arms until the Ton
Ton Macoute, the staggering Duvalier
militia, and other elements are thor
oughly crushed.
What would happen to DR.. Duvalier
If he loses? If he is lucky, Duvalier
might escape for a reunion with the
several millions Of dollars he repeatedly
has cached in Swiss bank. If he is
not, well, Haiti has long history of
executed Presidents, and the exile forces
have little reason to spare Duvalier If
they catch him.
It might be argued that the inva-
sion, obviously made from the Domini-
can Republic, is illegal. That it is, but
so is the regime Of President Duvalier
who arbitrarily extended his tenure last
May beyond the six-year term. If Du-
Waller falls, 1t surely will be case Of
good radiance.

Hiroshima

This years anniversary of the
atomic bombing Of Hiroshima had a
special significance, coming as 1t did
almost on the same day as the signing
Of the test ban treaty in Moscow For
the first time since the world stood
awe struck before the demonstrated
power Of the atom, there seems to be
some hope that the menace Of nuclear
destruction can be contained by human
ity.
Because there is such hope, this is
a good time for America to abandon
forever the annual orgy Of guilt-feel-
ings that some, including nuclear SCI
entists, have tried to make Of the an
niversary.
The bombing Of Hiroshima was a
frightful event. So was the bombing
of Pearl Harbor. Sherman said 1t a
century ago: War is hell" The horror
Of Hiroshima was not initiated by the
American government. 1t was initiated
by the Japanese government. That mill
tarist, aggressive, totalitarian govern
ment Of Japan was overthrown and a
modern, democratic system made pos
sible in Japan primarily by the action
of the United States armed forces, in
GLIDING, however unfortunately, the
bombing of Hiroshima.
The same principle applies to the
attitude Of some American nuclear SCI
entistS toward their government. This
years guilt-festival has included the
publication, In Look magazine, Of efforts
by some of the scientists involved in the
making Of the bomb to persuade the
government to forgo its use. The efforts
were unsuccessful. The bomb was
dropped. 1t is worth remembering that
In addition to generating guilt-feelings
among those Americans with taste for
that kind Of thing, the bomb also ended
the war and saved the lives Of countless
thousands of American fighting men
who would certainly have died in an in
vasion of Japan.
1t is also worth recalling that,
despite the memory" that has been
fabricated since, the American govern
ment did not dragon the American SCI
entific community and force scientists
to bend their talents to the production
of the atomic bomb. Quite the other way
around: representatives of the Ameri-
can scientific community brought the
attention Of President Roosevelt to the
possibility Of nuclear bombs and sue

RIGHTS for All

The testimony OF Florida's
Governor on civil rights was
disturbing in that 1t gave EVIL
dence Of a shallow compre-
hension Of the principles in
volved. For, in speaking
before the Senate Committee,
the Governor said in sub
stance that 1t would be
wrong TO grant to minority
groups equal rights Of public
accommodation. since in so
doing the rights Of the ma
jority would be violated.
The question that Is EVIL
IDENTIFY not clear in the mind
Of this witness is this: What
rights are under considera-
ton. and from what source
do they Gomez They are sure
ly rights for all, minorities
as we'll as majorities, for
they are conferred by Al
mighty God, the creator Of
all men, who regards not the
outward appearance Of q
man, but his heart.

Police Corruption

one nearS great zeal OF talk about
the dreadful shape Washington is in
because the Nations Capital does not
enjoy the blessings Of home rule. And
this comment often includes harsh
comments on the Metropolitan Police
Force.
It is to be hoped that these critics
have been reading the papers in recent
days. Kansas City, Mo-, has home rule.
But five members Of its police force
have Just been hauled up on charges
Of burglarizing shops they were sup
posed to be guarding. In Mineola, Long
Island, another home rule community,
much the same thing has happened.
Five members Of the police force have
been charged with looting warehouses
of goods valued up to $4,000.
The Kansas City police chief said
his culprits Showed remorse," which
was very decent of them. And one of
the New Workers, according to a news
dispatch, wept when he was being
booked for burglary.
In Washington there Is little oc-
casion for remorse or weeping. Occa-
sionally local policeman goes bad. But
this rarely happens and when it does
the offender is tried and punished-re-
morse or no remorse. Perhaps things
would be better under home rule. But
home rule might also bring conditions
in the city closer to Kansas City and
Mineola.

when they themselves approached the

Such speculation proceeds
from the absolute certainty
that a majority Of the Eisen-

The Uncle Toms

Not so long ago there was much
complaint to the effect that the white
moderates in the South were unwilling
or actually afraid to speak their minds
on the racial question. And there was
a great deal of truth to this. For
speaking out meant ostraciSm, abuse
or worse.
This situation, however, has changed.
Policy in the South is no longer dictated
everywhere by the extremists. This is
not to say that Indignation has become
more palatable, even to the moderateS.
On the contrary, bitterness, especially
toward the courts and the administra-
ton, is widespread and deep-seated.
Nevertheless, as result primarily of
court action the "rednecks" have been
shunted aside and reason is beginning
to take over. Seeing that desegrega-
ton is coming and that resistance is
futile, the moderate leaders in many
Southern communities have begun to
make the necessary accommodations
voluntarily, without waiting to be
pushed into 1t either by the courts or
by demonstrations in the streets.
While the whites in the South have
been swinging away from extremism
and toward moderation, however, the
reverse has been true in the Negro
ranks. AS pointed out in yesterdays
Star, the Negro militants, especially
among the young and very young, are
taking the play away from responsible
Negro leadership. For Negro leader
today to speak out in behalf of mod
Grafton or to condemn Negro violence
Is to be branded almost automatically
as an Uncle Tom," and, in some cases,
to be threatened with physical mis-
treatment. Ask James Meredith or even
DR.. Martin Luther King, who was the
victim Of an egg barrage in Harlem
a few days ago.
The principal Negro organizations
are the NAACP, CORE, the Christian
Leadership Conference and the Student
Non-Violent Co-ordinating Committee.
Unfortunately, these groups, whose top
leadership at least is generally respon-
sible, have been caught up in a COM
petition for control of the Negro move
ment, and the feuding within their
ranks has encouraged the younger
Negroes to drift toward extreme leaders.
Whether this process can be re-
versed is uncertain. But If 1t is to be
reversed at least three things are
needed. One is the passage Of Federal
legislation to help protect legitimate
Negro rights. Second, the responsible
Negro leaders must find way to pre-
sent united front. And, finally, when
So-called peaceful demonstrations erupt
into violence and defiance Of law, the
courts must be willing to deal even
handedly with all offenders, regardless
OF race. Without these conditions, what
is known as the NEGRO movement" will
drift steadily toward those who preach
violence. And violence almost surely
will be met with violence.

A BOOK FOR TO-DAY
Rustic Views of Early America
By DONALD MIMI

medicines that one would
expect to find only In the
pages Of a late 18th century
novel.
In 1870 he again went
back to France. Crevecoeur
managed to avoid the storms
Of the French Revolution
and lived In obscurity until
his death In 1918.
This well-educated, noble
Frenchman, writing in his
second language, is the alleged
native American rustic who
published under the distinct
~ non-plebian pseudonym 81.
Hector st. John"
The Letters From an
American Farmer" were first
published in 1882. The second
volume. Sketches of Eigh-
teenth- Century Life in Amer
ica," consists Of material
left over from the Letters"
and first appeared In 1925.
Crevecoeur's style is that of
the most elaborate English
novels Of the period. At the
same time, his knowledge of
his second language was APP
parently distinctly faulty, and
both books are very heavily
edited.
At times, he Is tiresome. At
others, for example In his de-
scription Of q solid New York
Cor possibly Canadian) snow
storm, he Is genuinely elo-
quent.
HIS VIEWS SHIFT from
letter to letter. Generally, he
sings Of the beauties Of pas
toral life. The nature he
loves is diligently cultivated.
Crevecoeur was no Rous-
seauiste; one thinks rather
Of James Thomson.
His early belief In the
goodness of man when placed
in a beneficent environment
is shaken even before the
American Revolution, and he
rises Cor descends) to an al
most Voltairian cynicisn and
an almost existentialist sense
Of bitter futility.
These two seemingly un-
connected moods are in fact
related. but Crevecoeur does
not himself see the relation.
There Is a passage In which
he mourns the simple hus-
bandman's inability to COM
prehenG what is In reality
the modern world beginning
to press on him. It Is this
inability that leads to the
darkness and savage satire Of
the later mood. But for Creve-
occur, the remedy is passive
acceptance and a partly ar
ticulated desire TO return to
earlier times Of simplicity.
For all that, Crevecoeur is
something Of q relativist; his
ability to describe the same
situation from several points
Of view and acknowledge that
all have a measure of validity
is sometimes strikingly mod
ern.
These are strange, often
beautiful, and occasionally
disturbing books. The soft
bound volume In which they
are combined may well have
more purchasers than readers,
but 1t is no less welcome for
that.
