Immediately commence a new program

develop at the earliest possible date the
prototype of commercial supersonic
transport superior to that being built

The development cost may reach 81
billion; the cost per plane, SIS million.

ton: II the initial planning phases fail
to meet highest standards, the project
will be called off. But the aviation in

Harry Flood Byrd has Just made
another Of his famous climbs-not I'D
the steps Of Capitol Hill where he also
knows his way around-but in his be-
loved Blue Ridge hills of Virginia. Long
before he assembled to his senatorial
seat in Congress, Senator Byrd began
his annual birthday climbs up Old Rag
Mountain. That's been going on for
some go summers now.
Yesterday, the eve Of his 18TH birth
day, Mr. Byrd took part In another
event that is becoming traditional. He
led a party on a three-mile hike near
Thornton's Gap Panorama for the
dedication of Byrd's Nest No. 3--the
third shelter he has built for those who
like TO plod along the Appalachian
Trail
This is ruffed grouse country. and
the shelter is marked with a figure
OF that doughty bird In flight. Shelter
No. ! on Old Rag bears the emblem Of
a raven, and Byrds Nest No. 2, on
Hawksbill, is identified by a red-tailed
hawk. The Blue Ridge is Byrd country,
and so is the Shenandoah National Park
which he proposed as Governor In 1925.
We wish the Virginia gentleman many
happy returns.

The Menace in Cuba

The special eight-nation tnveSti--
eating committee of the Organization
Of American States now has Somberly
confirmed the obvious: Fidel Castro'S
Cuba, which might more accurately be
called the Kremlins Cuba, is a grow
ing threat to all its neighbors in the
Western Hemisphere.
Here are some of the committees
key findings: ~ The continuing pres
ence of Soviet military power on the
island-a presence made up of many
thousands of troops and "technicians"
means that the betrayed and captive
Cuban nation is being used "as base
for promoting subversive activities in
other countries" (2) There is no ex-
aggeration in saying that the place has
been converted into heavily armed
beachhead from which Moscow plans
to launch ever increasing violence
and disorder throughout the Americas.
(3) This holds true for all our neigh
borS to the south, with special emphasis
at the moment on Venezuela, where
the Communists openly espouse and
practice sabotage and terrorism Of the
worst kind - as exemplified by their
vicious attack few days ago on the
United States Army Mission in Caracas.
In sum, as the committee has re-
ported, Undoubtedly Cuba now con-
Stitutes the regional center for sub
versive action by international COM
munism in America. This is true not
only with regard to the spread Of Com
muniSt theology but also, and what is
more dangerous, because it constitutes
a nearby center for training agents of
every kind whose function it is to carry
on Subversion in the countries of the
hemisphere. That is why the COM
mittee, noting that Dictator Castro has
become ominouSly more militant and
providence since his long visit in the
Soviet Union, has urged that the GAS,
when 1t meets next month, take posi-
tive collective counter action in such
fields as security, intelligence, customs,
communications and the control Of
"the constant and heavy stream of
travellers to and from Cuba"
Some Of the Americas - notably
Mexico and BraZil-are a bit skittish
and squeamish about all this. They
feel, 1t seems, that any firm effort to
check the Kremlin directed drive to
stir up as much trouble as possible in
the Western Hemisphere would inter-
fere with certain constitutional liberties.
Here again we have q good and alto
gether depressing example of the soft
headed kind Of thinking that persuades
certain governments to tolerate, in the
name Of freedom, the very forces that
would destroy them.
Well, regardless Of how some of
our neighbors may react to 1t. the new
GAS report adds up to an altogether
impressive warning about the menace
in Cuba. The Kremlin is doing an ugly
and supremely provocative Job there.
And one Of these days, whether or
not certain GAS members object, or
whether or not Nikita Khrushchev is
conscious Of the possibility, we may
find 1t imperative to move In on the
situation with about force to clean
1t up before 1t gets worse than 1t Is
already.

School Prayers

It has been with heavy
heart that I have noticed re-
Gently q number Of news
stories which appear, in my
judgment. to be paving the
way for a Supreme Court de-
cision against prayers In the
public schools.
There was, for instance,
the stand taken recently by
the General Assembly Of the
Presbyterian Church against
the use Of prayer as q de-
votional act in public schools.
! cannot. believe that this
action really reflects the
thinking of the general mem
bership of that church but,
rather, ! believe that 1t rep
resents Q misguided effort on
the part OF church leaders
to prepare the members for
acceptance of the expected
court decision. I am afraid
that these leaders are more
influenced by well-phrased.
legal sounding arguments
than by the simple convic-
tions Of their members.
Frankly. I believe that the
expected ruling Is as out OF
touch with the real intent Of
the Constitution as is the
assembly action out Of touch
with the real desires Of the
general membership.
Good judgment, common
sense. logic - whatever the
proper name-makes II abun-
dainty clear TO most people
that separation Of church
and state does not require
separation OF students from
God. That intelligent men
should claim that q non-sec-
tartan prayer promotes an
established church Is almost
incredible. And when they
say further that the constitu-

Everyone's Responsibility

-s- The Presidents message to the
= mayors has come through loud and
clear. And this is the key paragraph
>, Of the Honolulu speech: 1T is clear
to me that the time for token moves
N and idle talk is over-that these Negro
rights are going to be won--and that
our responsibility, yours and mine, is
:, to see that they are won in peaceful
and constructive manner"
at This leaves one important thing
tinsaid It is also the responsibility of
the Negroes, and especially the Negro
leaders, to see that these rights are
won in a peaceful and constructive
n manner. The President didn't 60 into
that side of the story, and he should
seek an early opportunity to repair the
omission.
se,r Mr.. Kennedy spoke, Of course, of
help that will be forthcoming from the
Federal Government in the shape Of
executive action, judicial rulings and,
o. hopefully, legislation. But he stressed
the point, and rightly so, that In the
last analysis any peaceful solution of
the problem depends in large measure
on leadership in the local communities.
After spelling out five basic steps
which he urged the mayors to take,
the President turned to conditions in
Washington. Much has been written"
he said, about crime and race rela-
tons in WaShington-much Of it untrue
but we are concerned about the Dis
trict'S problems, though they are less
than those of some other cities, and,
more Importantly, we are doing some
thing about them"
This is true. Much remains to be
done in WaShington-eSpecially In the
areas Of housing and jobs. But a great
deal already has been done. And it
has not been done exclusively by law
or executive action. The best results
have been and will be achieved through
concerted effort at the local level by
#, community leaders, colored as well as
white. Both are alert to their respon-
sibilities, while trying to measure up
to them. And If this is being done with
out fanfare, it nevertheless Is being
. done. Had the President seen fit to
emphasize this matter of a Joint re-
sponsibility, the mayors might have
gone back to their respective cities with
q better understanding Of why WASH
ington is making progress in finding
the answers to its racial problems.

Inland for another prolonged planning
donnybrook, had the District Engineer
Commissioner seen fit to persist in his
disagreement over the plans adequacy
as to access for boating enthusiasts. To
his credit, General Clarke yielded to the
majority, and made the commission vote
Of approval unanimous. He further pre-
dicted that the District will schedule an
early public hearing and subsequently
adopt the plan so that actual develop
ment may proceed.
We hope so. 1t is hard to imagine
that further study or debate could result
in better plan. Certainly its basic con-
cepts reflect the consensus Of majority
Of the experts who have worked on the
challenging project during the last sew
eral years. More important, 1t provides
full opportunity for imaginative en-
