Important Message To
Our Young People

This chart, which Senator Hubert H. Humphrey
published in his July Newsletter holds special
message for all Negroes. The message is doubly
special and doubly urgent for young Negroes, now
in school or just entering the work force. If we
neglect to read the message and do something about
It, they won't be entering the work force at all.
In sense this chart Is what the Negro civil
rights demonstrations the country over are all about

Highway Commissioner
Shows His Contempt

The brush-off which Minnesota Highway Com
missioner James Marshall gave committee Of
White Bear mothers seeking pedestrian safety
measures on Highway 81 is typical Of what Mime
sotans have come to expect from the commissioner
1t was, that is to say, churlish, insulting, often
sive, and badly informed.
General Marshall is a deep embarrassment to
Minnesota. He does not understand the state, he
does not understand the people He does not under
stand political institutions. He does not under
stand social morality and ethics. He does moi
understand the rules of courtesy that usually guide
us in our political relationships.
When the White Bear mothers stood theil
ground and insisted upon their demands for safety
measures Marshall is reported to have blown his
top" When they promised to make their petition g
public issue, Marshall blew up again. According tc
the White Bear Press:
Flag waving and picketing will get you nc
place, Marshall was reported to have told the
women. He said that the colored people have beer
trying it recently and it has awaited them nothing.
How little does the General know! This sort Of
contempt for a great effort in the field OF human
rights is what might expect from General Mar
shall. 1t is not what one has right to expect from
a public official of the state of Minnesota
The White Bear woman were asking for safety

lower speed limit, at a corner used by children
where one child recently killed, and where Il
accidents including four fatalities have occurred II
two years. The reaction to this by the Highway Com
missioner: The women wasting their time!
This is not what we expect Of public official Of
the state Of Minnesota
The commissioner may have been wrong on one
other point At least hope he He said &C.
cordng to the White Bear Press, that ''he runs hi
department and the Governor doesn't tell him wha
to do"
There is one thing about which the Governor
would be fully justified in telling him what to do
Indeed the governor ought to- following this lates

The Governor ought to tell him to resign ant

with so profound contempt for Minnesota and its
people.
St. Paul recorder. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1934-2000, 1963-08-01

to this theory so Everett LuOma
that the reader can understand
what the dispute is all about.
Mar1ist theory states that the
cause Of wars is the struggle for
markets of capitalist countries.
Similarly, poverty and unemploy-
ment are a result Of the struggle
for profits of the capitalist class
which within the capitalist count
ries controls the basic industries.
Therefore economic security for
all people can only be achieved by
means of a social revolution.
Natural resources and the basic
industries such as railroads and
steel mills must be taken out of
the hands Of the capitalists and
placed in the hands of the workers
so that they can be fully developed
for the benefit of all society. When
social revolutions have occurred in
all nations, international wars will
have become thing of the past.
When a social revolution occurs
in any one country, a government
Of the proletariat arises which
manages society in its transition
to socialism. Mar7dsts believe this
government to be truly democratic
because 1t Is a dictatorship Of the
overwhelming majority - the pro-
letariat. This governments duties
are to form democratic workers
council within the home country
to manage the basic industries and
to explain to the workers Of other
countries why their condition is so
dear so those countries will also
have a social revolution.
Full freedom should exist within
these proletartan governments so
that the will of the majority can
have free rein in developing a
socialist state. It is absurd to
argue that a proletar4an govern
ment can exist that does not per-
init complete freedom because OBJ
Wously any censorship presupposes
the existence of separate classes
within society. This separation of
society into classes is contradic-
tory to the type Of society that
should exist after a social revolu-
ton from capitalism to socialism.

BoTneff. Wallace
Drag Red Herring
Into Testimony
The Journal, Milwaukee

|
In the distorted views Of Gov.
Wallace of Alabama and Gov. Bar
nett Of Mississippi a man who de-
mands his civil rights is aiding
communism. That in effect was
what they told the senate COM
merce mittee in arguing
against the presidents civil rights
program.
Equality is an American goal If
one believes in Our heritage Of
freedom. But for Negroes to ask
for it creates a threat TO the very
soul Of the nation, in the Barnett
wallace philosophy. For Negroes
to demand equal rights is to
threaten a new civil war, they
said.
The testimony Of Wallace and
Barnett and their Interpretation
of our laws and Constitution have
no connection with reality. That
some Of the southern senator's
should support them is heart sick
ening.
The News, Miami
On July IL, the governor of
mississippi accused the President
of the United States and the At
torney General Of sowing seeds Of
hate and violence" in their attempt
to seek equal rights for all men.
The Governor accused Commun-
ist influences Of inspiring Negro
demonstrations throughout the ma
tton.
Four days later the governor Of
Alabama said a President who
sponsored legislation such as the
Civil Rights Act, being studied
now by the Senate Commerce
Committee, should be retired from
public office for putting mobs into
the streets"
The governor, sounding like a
Charlie Mccarthy, repreated the
accusation Of Communist inspira-
ton.

Something must happen to a
mans reasoning processes when
he commits himself TO the cause
of the rabid segregationist. A case
in point was the appearance Of
Alabama's Governor George Wal
lace before the Senate committee
hearings on President Kennedy's
civil rights legislation.
Under the Wallace theory, Pres
ident Kennedy Is guilty Of jeopar-
dizing the nation, encouraging
Communists and asking for civil
war when he asks that Negrose be
given the rights they are already
guaranteed; but when Governor
Wallace calls federal judges

clares that he win refuse 10 en-

DRY POINTS
BY FRED GRAM

The monumental efforts Of Gold
water admirers to rebuild their
hero as a moderate and enlight-
ened statesman keep stumbling
over Goldwater speeches and
statements to the press. The SEN
ator's image thus comes into focus
as that of a man with two feet
planted firmly on the ground and
one in his mouth.
The flow Of gold out Of Fort
Knox continues to alarm the gov
eminent and puzzle the rest Of us
who are aware Of the only known
use for the stuff. There just can't
be that many hollow teeth In the
world.
The Republican policy debate
appears to have arrived at a de-
cision. The Republican liberals are
determined to favor the modern
viewpoint and come out four
square for the principles Of Abra-
ham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis.
Cooling Soviet tempers toward
the west are balanced by hotter
tempers toward China. What the
Communist bloc countries seem to
crave is a moral equivalent Of foot
ball.

more celestial ranges.
Gov. Wallace of Alabama did
not commit himself on whether
heaven is segregated, but he did
contend that God segregated the
human race. The same argument
was used in behalf of slavery, and
it might also be used in behalf of
segregating bloods and brunettes.
1t is always remarkable how much
pious hypocrisy can be mustered
in behalf of a human condition that
almost all people now concede is
wrong.
Both Gov. Wallace and Gov. Bar
nett Of Mississippi raised a patri-
otto note, too. They implied that
the demand for equal rights might
be equated with Communism and
that the Administration was pres
sured" into accepting the demand.
What kind of glasses do such men
use, to see Communism In an
American demand for American
rights ? If the Administration was
pressured by anything, it was by
the tardy realization that Negro
impotence, a century after the
Civil War, is nearly as irrefutable
as it is just.

ees we're given the opportunity
to practice their know-how on
