Comment On Dixie
And Segregation
(ChlcagO AMERICAN)


A remarkable thing happened in
Clarksdale, Miss, Friday - re-
markable for Mississippi, anyway.
When the home Of Aaron Henry,
president Of the Mississippi divis-
ion Of the National Association
for the Advancement Of Colored
People, was damaged by gasoline
bombs hurled by two young toughs,
the white police stirred around and
actually arrested the bombers.
This in itself merits notice as an
improvement in the quality Of
Mississippi justice.
A Negro congressman, Rep.
Charles Diggs d., Mich.), was
Henry's house guest when both
were bombed out Of their beds
early Friday. The bombers admit
ted the attack but made a remark
able defense: They said they hadn't
known whose house 1t was they
were bombing, who was staying
there, or even whether the occu-
pants were white or Negro. They
were, said the bombers, "just hav-
ing fun," and happened to pick
Diggs and NAACP official targets
by chance.
The coincidence claimed here
would be the most astounding on
record, and we doubt that throw
ing Molotov cocktails at just any
bodys house can be considered
fun" even in Mississippi"
St. Paul recorder., 1963-05-02

ing the PRESIDENT, Everett LuomA
the situation was made to order
for Kennedy. Kennedy could lash
out at the steel industry and force
it to capitulate. BY doing so, Presi-
dent Kennedy would greatly en-
hance his own personal power as
we'll as improve his image.
Several large industries have as
much say as to how the country is
run as any President and us.
Steel is one of these. Therefore
when us. Steel announced its
price rise, which would have had
repercussions throughout the econ
omy, Kennedy construed it as
direct challenge to his own posi-
ton of power. In order to main
tain his own powerful position,
Kennedy had to be the victor In
this struggle.
President Kennedy however care
fully avoided reaching any logical
conclusions that must be drawn
from his anger over the 1862 steel
price rise. This anger could only
mean that the competition in the
market place is not the deterrnin-
ing factor as to what the price Of
steel is. Therefore in order to justi-
fy this anger, President Kennedy
should have looked for means to
restore competition within the
steel industry. This problem the
Administration has no interest in
tackling. The reason why Kennedy
refused to look for methods to re-
store competition in steel is obvi-
Gus. If true competition" were
placed in the steel industry, it
would be impossible for anyone, in
cluding Kennedy, to have complete
control Of the situation.
Things now have changed how
ever. The age Of the New Frontier
has passed and this Is the age Of
the tax cut for the large indus
trialists. Kennedy believes that he
now does rule the roost, so there Is
no longer any reason for him to
pretend to be a friend of the work.
ing man. This is clearly evidenced
by his statements during the New
York newspaper strike.
This year the steel companies,
beginning with Wheeling Steel
Corporation, decided they would
definitely raise their prices al
though the definite amount has
not been decided. Interestingly
enough, all the news media ad-
mitted that US. Steel Corporation
would eventually decide If prices
would remain raised among the
small companies. No one however
is willing to admit that a monopo-
ly in effect controls the steel in
dustry.
True to Kennedy's new image,
he praised the steel companies for
acting with some restraint" and
in effect warned the steel unions
to act with equal restraint He also
asked the auto companies with
their very high profits" to absorb
the steel price increase without In
creasing prices Of their own.
The auto companies displayed
their position in the economy by
simply ignoring President Kennedy
and announcing there would be a
price rise in 1864 automobiles.

Let's Quit Libeling And
Belittling Our Great State

We find it difficult to understand why the ad-
vocates of the sales tax find 1t necessary to adver
tse-quite falsely, as 1t happens - that Minnesota
has an unhealthy economy and is an unfriendly
state for business and industry A specific example
is the outrageous advertisement published in the
Sunday newspapers on April 21 and signed by num-
erous Chambers of Commerce and other organiza-
tons including one sad-sack newspaper.
The message of the advertisement was that
Minnesota is driving industry and jobs out of the
state and only sales tax save us. The message
was a masterpiece of falsity and cynicism The
truth is closer to the total of the message
Yet many befuddled people are taken in by this
kind of charlatinism, with resulting incidents that
sometimes tragic and sometimes hilarious and
sometimes both at once. Such as the poor befuddled
mother of five boys who testified at the sales tax
hearing that she would have to take her brood out
Of the state to find jobs for them unless we passed
a sales taxi
The perpetrators of the sales tax advertisement
cannot excuse their hoax on the grounds Of ignor-
ance The facts the nearest Statistical
Abstract World Almanac. And the facts show
that Minnesota stacks up pretty well alongside
other states in our area.
For example, from 1860 to 1861 there was a
general shrnkage of industrial employment through
out the country-.5 per cent nationally. How did
Minnesota fare? Quite well. While jobs shrank that

WAGES GAIN FASTER HERE

The hourly earnings of an industrial worker In
Minnesota rose 4.39 per cent from 1860 to 1851
from 9507 cents to 99.46 cents. In Wisconsin they
rose 1.34 per cent-from 9632 to 97.66 cents In
Illinois, 3.29 per cent from 9770 to 10099. Thus
Minnesota wage earners in that period gained
larger increases both absolutely and per cent than
our two more industrialzed neighbors. And in 1851
Minnesota industrial workers had bigger real earn
ngs than their fellows in either state since Illinois
takes a to per cent sales tax bite out Of them
on cost Of living that is already substantially
higher than Mnnesota's
