Says Senator Ervin WASHINGTON _ Congress has stepped up the tempo of Investiga tion*. THREE AT ONCE One day last week three Senate committees, of which I am a mem ber, were meeting at the same time. Fortunately, the matters that were being explored In open session had been covered In executive session of the Permanent Sub-Committee on Investigations. This had to do with trade In strategic Items with the Soviet bloc of countries. I feel that we have reason to be shocked by the disclosures that strategic materials and equipment have been pouring Into the war potential of the communists through some of our slip-shod trade practices. For example, let's tabe copper, a short Item in world supply. The com munists need it badly. The trick is to secure the copper through other countries indirectly from us, and they have apparently had great suc cess at this. Copper was secured I by the Reds through these devious avenues. THE PRESIDENCY I am increasingly alarmed at the lack of intellectual honesty of some of the candidates for the presidency in the field of race re lations. While I do not agree with Adlai Stevenson on some things, I am convinced that his courageous stand for moderation has raised his stature to statesmanship on this problem. Extremists will not accept this point of view. Stevenson will be hard pressed by some politicians to denounce moderation as evil and Instead demand troops and bayonets to Implement the Supreme Court decision in the South. Such Is the view of Harriman as express ed in the press Apparently Steven son prefers to be right rather than have the support of the profes sional politicians who seek to make capital of an unfortunate situation. We will watch with keen interest whether this pressure deprives him of nomination. While speaking of the Presiden cy, it is encouraging to hear that President Eisenhower's recovery has been good. I favor doing all that we can to advance the cause of public school education. I have stated that my position is to support, within limit ations, Federal aid tq build school houses, due to the inordinate amount of money collected by the Federal Government in taxes which leaves the states very little. The immoderate and punitive Powell amendment has aroused the coun try. It seeks to deprive innocent children of their share of any funds for education. It is a devilish thing perpetrated by people who obvi ously care nothing for peace, pro gress, and development of better conditions for all races. Should this amendment be pressed and pass the House, you may rest assured that it will not pass the Senate. We must protect and strengthen thg public schools as vigorously as pos sible. In fighting the Powell amend ment, America is striking a blow for its public schools. m ^Jbj Floyd Nelson The National Society for the Pre vention of Blindness has come up with a factual report about the health of eyes In connection with watchtnc television.
