Communist Colonialism

AOIllIllUIllSC OOlO1lldllSI1
THERE is sharp irony in the fact that
students IF left-leaning Ghana
should be among those protesting mis-
treatment at the hands of the Bulgarian
Communists.
Like many Africans studying in the
Soviet Union and Iron Curtain count
ries, including East Germany, these stu
dents have learned they are not free
agents when they set foot on Red SOIL
They are forbidden to join student
unions Of their making, they are subject
to ceaseless Communist indoctrination,
they are wooed as potential subversives.
These are hard lessons for gullibe
Africans. Many have thought that the
Reds professed anticolonialism made
them desirable friends. 1t turns out they
simply try to practice far more iron
handed colonialism than the West ever
did.
Some in Ghana still can't face the
reality. They choose to stress the Bull
garian Reds alleged racial prejudice,
rather than to acknowledge that their
students have stumbled into the clutches
of professional jailers.

not exercise authority in this area.
In other words, state is allowed to
ban discrimination in interstate COM
merce, even when there is federal action
in this field. But state is not permit

What we see here is typical instance
of sociological theorizing by the Su-

Indignation. Therefore, it upholds law
banning discrimination, even when it
conflicts with federal law. But num-
Der of the judges oppose vigorous anti
subversive action. Therefore, they deny
to states the right to take action against
subversives.

Court Of Sociology

THE intellectual and moral inconsist-
encies of the U. S. Supreme Court
were revealed again Monday when the
justices upheld a Colorado law BAN
ming discrimination in employment.
Colorado courts had knocked down their
own state law on the ground that the
ban was applied to an airline engaged
in interstate business.
Associate Justice Hugo L. Black,
speaking for a unanimous court, said:
ITO hold that state statute is invalid
under the supremacy clause, we must
be able to conclude that the purpose of
the federal statute would to some ex-
tent be frustrated by the state statute.
We can reach no such conclusion"
But this is not the line of reasoning
followed by the court several years ago
when it struck down a Pennsylvania
law against sedition The high court
ruled that the federal government had
preempted the field of subversive ac-

epidemic Of diptheria or typhoid,
except that it was mental. Will it
come again? l don't know; but
there are no signs of it now.
People are no longer speculat-
ing in pieces of paper. Most spe-
culators are buying large acre
age and dividing it into house
lots. People are buying one or
two lots on speculation, but their
total loss would be not more
than $1,000 even if the develop
ment company went into bank
ruptcy. The difficulties that
these companies sometimes fail

Where To Buy?

cannot afford to get involved in
any lawsuits; but l am willing
to say that anyone who buys a
small house and an adjoining
lot in a Florida city of 10000
or less. in which he plans to
live, should make a good and
healthful investment. He, how
ever, should first drive down
to Florida and take trip
around the state. The local bank

Letters To- Editor
No Earthquake!
Patriots Turning
In Their Graves

Editor of the Herald:
I've just read a letter to the
Herald by a Burton G. Hurdle,
Jr.
I'm an old Yankee and very
much surprised to find a man
in the South so ill-informed as
to the school situation in Prince
Edward County. Or is it lack Of
information on the subject?
And that gentleman, Mr..
Hurdle. goes on to say and infer
that Prince Edward County has
deliberately deprived a large
segment Of said county's chill
dren an education.
Where does Mr.. Hurdle get
that kind of logic? l presume
that's what he calls it-logic
Or just an argument.
Does Mr.. Hurdle know that
those children he speaks of and
who are being deprived Of an
education, had the same chance
to get an education and under
the same circumstance as those
who are going to school now
l would Judge by what he says
he doesn't know that.
All of those who are complain
! ing about those who are not get
ting an education are not SO
much interested in education as
they are in Indignation. l think
that will cover the thinking in
which Mr.. Kennedy has enter
ed when he branded Prince Ed
ward County a Bad Boy"
l presume MI. Kennedy would
like to see Prince Edward COM
ty use the schools of Washing
ton, D. c.. as a model to go
by. God have mercy on YOU if
you do I wish the people Of
Prince Edward County to know
that there are millions of old
Yankees up here who admire
them for the stand they have
taken in the school battle.
Also, we admire the Editor
and Chief of the Farmville Her

that has stood four-square to

Belts Are For Buckling

pERSUADING owners that seat belts
should be useful as well as orna-
mental has become an unexpected pro-
blem. If seat belts are accepted by some
principally as status symbols, they can
also prevent Wearers from spreading
their noses on windshields.
While 100000 have seat belts in
motor cars, only about a third fasten
them when driving, safety experts say.
Some motorists explain in half-hearted
apology they wear theirs only when
driving on the highways, others that
they serve best in city traffic. "How
will you feel" one husband demanded
of the little woman after laying out
S32 for pair, when they pick you out
of a ditch and then find your unfasten-
ed seat belt in the carr" Fine, and
phooey,' she said, which had to do for
an answer.
1t is now possible to equip seat belt
with an attachment which prevents
motor car from starting until the driver
fastens his
metal plate fits over the buckle and
is wired to the ignition When the belt
is fastened, an electrical circuit is COM
pleted to carry a weak current permit
ing the ignition to be switched on. It's
up to the driver to persuade his pas
sengers to fasten theirs. Possibly an
other circuit in the seat itself would
galvanize them into action if they failed
to buckle in
In its present form, the seat belt is
an effective but rudimentary appliance
