There seems to be a COM
mon assumption that the
Supreme Court in the past
few days has adopted a new
rule under which 1t will be
necessary for schools in the
South to move towards de-
segregation with something
more than "all deliberate
speed" The court is not in
the habit of laying down new
and divisive doctrines in a
period of great national
strain. Nor has it departed
from this rule now.
Almost all Of us could
name various public figures
who would like to suggest
that the Supreme Court has
just issued a harsh and I'M
expected command on school
segregation. They would like
to argue that a new crisis has
arisen in 1868 when, in fact,
we are faced by no more
than the old crisis caused by
the persistent failure of some
Southern States to comply
with the courts decisions in
1854 and 1855.
This context Is crucial to a
fair discussion Of the present
issues. For the Supreme
Court Is not in the position
Of an eager gladiator flinging
down a gage Of battle to a
quarrelsome South. 1t bears
a closer resemblance to a
patient umpire who still be-
lieves In the reasonableness
Of the South, who is sad
dened by the attempts to
evade or defy long-eStab-
lished principles, and who
announces at long last that
these efforts will no longer
be tolerated.
The burden, in short, is on
those people in the South
who make resistance their
watchword and evasion their
policy. The Supreme Court
has done nothing to aggra-
vate the current crisis. 1t has,
instead, erected a standard Of
reason to which the South
can rally before it is too late.

world is that the church now
believes it can hold itself
above the theological struggle
which some people do not be-
lieve possible. 1t concerns dis
agreements in methods for
bringing about peace.
The Kennedy Endorsement
of the Peace on Earth Ency-
clical and his intent to visit
with Pope John we're care
fully weighed, both in the
Vatican and in Washington.
The Vatican believed that the
church made a great stride
when the election of a Cath
ole President overcame Pro-
testant prejudice. The belief
followed that a Catholic
President could safely work
closely with the Pope for
world peace even though the
United States may eventually
be the only country in the
world without diplomatic re-
lations with the Vatican.
While holding itself above
the theological struggle, the
Vatican definitely entered
into open politics. It made
quiet progress in exchanging
diplomatic ENJOYS with the
Iron Curtain countries as well
as Soviet Russia. Polish Car
dinal Wyszynski discussed a
diplomatic exchange with Po-
land. Poland asks, for its
concession, the recognition Of
the former German territory
occupied by Poland at the end
of World War II. In this, of
course, 1t was necessary for
the Vatican to work closely
with Washington as it had in
attempting to work out the
release of Cardinal Mindszen-
ty from Hungary.
There is no doubt that the
combined force of the United
States and the Catholic
church is enormous and their
working together would de-
finitely weaken the forces in
the world which do not be-
lieve that peace can be main
tanned by co-existence be-
tween communism and godli-
ness.

daughter and son-in-law last
March.
For the last several weeks
the Vatican's official news
paper, L'Osservatore Romano,
has been insisting in edi-
torialS that neither the
Adzhubei visit nor the en-
cyclical indicated any COM
promise between the ideolo-
gies Of Christianity and
communism. The Holy Father
insisted from the beginning
of this controversy that the
church must play an active
role in preserving peace and
that this did not mean it
condones atheism or COM
munism. He believed that in
this manner the church's
chance Of survival behind the
Iron Curtain might improve.
1t is pointed out here that
the Vatican followed the
policies which the United
States actually adopted at
Yalta-that is, that the
United States would not in
any way disturb the desire
of Soviet Russia to have
friendly" states on her Dor
ders. This policy was reaf-
firmed later by Secretary Of
State Dean Acheson and
again by the late John Foster
Dulles in a speech he made
in Texas shortly before the
Hungarian uprising in 1856.

Although Oleg Penkovsky re-
portedly had contacts within
the Soviet hierarchy, the Rus
sian government apparently
has decided against a Stain
type purge in the aftermath of
his SPY trial.
Reports from Moscow con-
firmed the opinion Of top Unit
ed States analysts that the
Russians do not want to inn
plicate-or severely punish
more than a minimum Of Col
Penkovsky's associates. He was
executed two weeks ago, short
lly after his conviction on es-
pionage charges.
Izvestia, the official govern
ment newspaper, said the So
Wet Unions defense establish
ment was not damaged by Col,
Penkovsky's activities. This was
an effort to calm Soviet citi-
zens who might have been
alarmed by the information
produced at his trial.
Col. Penkovsky had con-
fessed to turning over about
5000 frames Of exposed film,
taken during his work as an
administrative official in a So
Wet scientific agency.
Rejects Political Motive
The Izvestia article, in the
form Of questions and answers
posed to Col. Penkovsky's trial
prosecutor, said the colonel's
treachery was due to personal
ity defects-careerism, love of
bourgeois life, etc. 1t explicit
ly ruled out political motiva-
tionS.
Most Of the people who met
Penkovsky were honest and
loyal to our motherland," the
article said. It said his close
friends were not criminally re-
sponsible for his actions.
In Stains time, an espionage
trial such as Col. Penkovsky's
would almost certainly have
been followed by widespread
executions and purges from
military and party ranks.
Sources here said Col. Pen
kovsky had been an assistant
military attache in Turkey be-
fore he took his post with the
State Committee on Co-ordi-
nation Of Scientific Research
Work.
The Izvestia article said Of
ficials who we're lax in their
dealings with Col. Penkovsky
had been punished along "ad-
illustrative and party lines.

ROME. - President Ken
nedy's decision to include
Rome in his Italian trip, after
it was first announced that
he would not, was due to
the illness of the Pope, quar-
tiers close to the Vatican in
innate. 1t is believed that
John XIII wanted very
much to see and talk to the
American President before
the sands of time ran out.
The expected subject Of
the talks between the two
world leaders-one spiritual
and the other political-was
the Pontiff's intense interest
and crusade for world peace,
his formula having been set
forth in the Holy Thursday
issuance of the Peace on
Earth Encyclical.
The encyclical was the
first to have been given
notice and support by an
American President and in
the realm of practical poll
tics America alone can carry
on what the Holy Father
started in the spiritual field.
1t has been speculated
here for some time that the
Vatican and the White
House were working closely
together in this crusade for
peace among "all men Of
good will"
Vatican circles have adj
mitted that there were some
risks in the Easter Encyclical
risks that the Communists
would interpret the words to
suit their own aims. This, of
course, happened and def
nitely affected the Italian
elections in which the Com
munist Party gained more
than a million votes. Much
Of the Italian press as well
as disappointed politicians in
Italy also attributed the
Communist gain to the SEN
sational occurrence when the
Pope gave a private audi
ence to Premier Khrushchev's

This means that no one SO far
has been arrested.
The most prominent official
implicated in the Izvestia ar
ticle was Marshal Sergei Va

Wet tactical missile forces. Ac-
cording to Izvestia, investiga-
ton showed that Marshal Va

him when he was to be retired

him his job in the scientific

Note Fears Of Purge
Experts here believe the So
Wet government has taken the
mild approach to the Penkov-
sky case in order not to de-
moralize the population who
have a dread fear Of another
Stalinist purge.
Despite persistent reports in
the West that Col. Penkovsky
was a spy for political reasons,
the official Soviet view has not
changed since last December
when he was first arrested.
This view has held that Col,
Penkovsky was a corrupt per-
son, lured by British and
American intelligence agents
into betraying his country for
material benefits. AS a result,
the Soviet press has stepped up
a vigilance" campaign against
excessive contacts with West
erners in Moscow. Pravda even
suggested last week that Rus
slams boycott Western diplo-
matte receptions and avoid the
attractions of bourgeois ide-
ology."

sion Of standards, put it this
way:
with ADP we can do a great
deal more with the same num-
Der Of people. ADP will tend
to replace the jobs Of those with
little skill-to do the things
that machines can do-and will
tend to add jobs which need
trained people.
1--WE will need fewer I'M
trained clerical workers, for ex-
ample, because much clerical
work can be done by machines
But from experience thus
far with ADP, we are not say
ing it will mean big savings in
money through laying-off OF
employees"
Estimates are that more than
$500 employees now work In
computer operations, which
were virtually non-existent in
1850. There are about 2.5 mil
lion Federal employees today
compared with about 2,111,00C
on June 30, 1947.
Effect Revealed
Civil Service statistics show
the effect Of the use of quick
copy equipment and other adj
vances in automation in this
way:
In 1947 the Federal Govern
ment employed about 5000 In
straight tipping or machine
transcribing Jobs. Since that
time. overall Federal employ
ment has increased about 20
per cent in the continental
United States. If the demand
for typists had increased &C
cordingly, the Government now
would be employing about 102,-
900 in tipping positions, whereas
it actually employs about u.s.
900. reflecting a decrease in
need Of about IL per cent since
1947.

mand for persons whose skills
do not extend the beyond the
ability to type" the commits

G.O.p.U Urges
Grain Inquiry
By the Associated Press

Senate Republicans are press
ing for a congressional investi-
cation into reports that "a
million bushels of United States
grain vanished on the way to
Austria.
The $32 million worth of
corn, barley and sorghum
could have gone behind the
Iron Curtain" in violation of
United States barter agreements
said Senator John J. Williams,
Republican of Delaware, yester-
day in demanding a Senate
investigation.
Or, he said, the grain may
have been diverted and sold
in Western Germany for dol
lars" which would also be a
violation.
Barter deals are restricted
to Communist countries
that would not otherwise pay
dollars for United States farm
products.
Lester p. Condor, Agricul-
ture Department inspector gen.
eral, said evidence uncovered
so far does not indicate the
grain went behind the Iron
Curtain but that some Of it
might have wound up in West
Germany where it could hurt
cash markets for United States
grain.
Mr.. Condor said the United
States suffered no loss on the
shipments intended for Austria
because it received the agreed
upon minerals in the barter
exchange.
Senator Williams said seven
importers have been arrested
in Austria and that he does
not see how the grain could
have disappeared without some
collision" with someone in this
country, although no Ameri-
cans have been implicated.
This is really big stuff"
said Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen in backing Senator
Williams request to create a
special Senate committee and
give it 100000 to look into
the case.
The resolution was sent to

mittee.
