The CAROLINIAN'S point v. . that while there existed at the time an uneasy truce, peace in the sense of tran quillity and security was for from a reality. Since that time the guns have started roaring again on the island of Quemoy, with bombings on one side and de fensive firing of Lig guns on the other, Chiang's Formo san government on one end of the firing and Red China on trie other. Tt seems that the truce in tpdo-China was only a brief breathing spell at the most As soon as the Reds quiet down in one place in Asia. IT' ; ."t t ;IH t. .0 1 •. I- O Q £? s ji t IS?

The laity can take it ot leave it. jind if they If.-;.}vs it they abandon the blessing ot lb-:- Church, nec essary for salvation. There is no voting in inventions up oi cl« new and lay CiV * c 3 ICS. This procedure may not be in harmony with the pat tern of the " Protestant de nominations, which pass re solution?: not lending on anv il od y or any constituent congregation. It may be re garded as out of harmony with the democratic ideal. But no one can deny that is efficacious in getting things Some years ago when it they break out in another locale. It seems obvious that the Reds do not intend to rest., or to allow us to rest in Asia, bo plain is th< ir method of operation now that the late st United States and United Nat ions policy is built around the possible necessity of in terference in the case of an internally fomented revolu tion. whereas before inter vention was confined to cases of outside invasion by an ag gressor of a peaceful nation. The. State Dpartnv nt and the United Nations have faced the reality of the kind of thing that happened in Indo- China. No Red power from the outride invaded Indo- China. It was rebellion again st the duly eonstutilued gov ernment by the Red Indo- Chinese in indo-China. There will be more of the same, •low muds more and where How now Mr. Katz? It is practically universally con ceded that a rmgk. instead oi a dual school system would make possible great tcor-oiTiics Wf wonder what would be the sources of these, "’tremendous mom y costs." The cxrc-ssiv* money costs to the South have come in by.- n.niii’enattcc of dual sy stem, and especially within the past few years as the coins began to compel some reality in the “equal” part of the "separate but equal” for mula. and. during the l,net part of the period, as they hoped to forestall the end of the dual system by taking steps to maki the duality approach some- semblance if equality Mr. Katz? was decided by the Catholic powers that-wcfc in St. Louis that segregation must b* eli minated from the parochial schools of that city, there won Pi tier and loud protests among some of the faithful. But no compromise was ©f ferd from above. What was to be had been proclaim ed, and that was all there was to it. Soon the protests sub sided. The Catholic desegrega tion movemnt antedated by a number of years the Su prem Court's latest decision. Not only is that true, but it js also our conviction that the movement was dictated to a very great extent by the consideration that compul sory segregation was against Christian principles and therfore spiritually untenable, There are many Protestants who fed the same way. The difference is that the Catholic Church can always carry out the convictions of its leader ship because the leadership has the power to see that, its convictions are carried out, and does not have to depend on slow persuasion. Nor does it have to be vacillating, hesitant or conciliatory. Nonetheless the Supreme Court decision has provided s valuable assist to the Cath olic Church and has undoubt edly facilitated and accele rated the de-segregation pro cess in Catholic education. cannot be told But as long as the Kremlin can get Red victories at. little or no cost to Russia, by having natives destroy the independence: of their own countries and bring them under the Communist orbit without the risk of the loss of a single Russian life or any of the other costs, fin ancial or psychological, of actually going to war the Kremlin will continue to op erate in that way, and there wall be no peace. , The quetsion is not one of ' war or peace, taut to what cx- ‘ tent the fighting can be local- , iked, and if localized, how J long can the Western World - continue to permit the Red ■ World to absorb isolated ' pieces of the previously non- j Communist territory and - blocs of previously non- \ Communist, people before the i breaking point is reached.

It make* us keep in touch with the fast pace at which we are moving to ward the inclusion of Negroes in the general pattern of American fife We have tried to track down everything from stenographers to engineers for people, promising tc keep a weather eye out, and sometimes filling the bill, but more often, not. But the requests k**ep coming at intervals, ami have been for some time now, and it becomes increasingly apparent that doors are opening rignt and left, often in fields we have not yet covered sufficiently So supply any great numbers For instance, the En gineering Dooartment at one of the well-known Negro colleges, is one of the finest in thecountry, and its graduates are absorbed into industry as fast as they can be turned out. There is a crying need Cor technical men in this country and. as it has been point ed out. more than once, our pro duction of these highly skilled scientists has diminished, while that, of Russia has increased many times. Our young Negro technicians face little, if any, discrimination in this field and while the jobs they get arc ad mittedly not ye. top level. once they get a foot in the door, the sky wili be the limit. But only very small numbers of our young peopie take advantage of this type of training. An official of one of New localities in the Sou:r, ana j*- Kansas.

St. Louis and Kansas City, as well as other locaJties in that general area, had -on cor more days of 115 or lie degree lughs. It is being pointed out that n is unwise in those sections of the cm ntry nowadays to. put thous ands or million?: of dollars into a new office building without constructing with provisions for air conditioning. Mark Twain's famous saying concerning every body talking about the weather but. nobody doing anything about it is t-j some extent outdated summer sir conditioning 1m made possible essentially the same degree of provision feu in door comfort in spite of outside high temperature as has long York’* Having# banks, just last week wa» demoarusg the fact that he bad not yet been able to find a young accountant, interest ed in a future in the banking business, to add to lus staff.

These are only two examples of new territory to be explored, and should set us immediately preparing ourselves in allied lie ids, looking in every direction for the means to expand our knowledge and experience, and to inspire our young people to tram with these larger horizons in mind. For many years. Ne groes were to circumscribed that they could only look forward with any certainty to pursuing careers as teacher*, ministers,, doctors, lawyers, dentists, and social workers; and they were able to follow these only as the demand v. as created sot their services among Negroes. It is tm derswndaole, therefore, that over the yea, s they may have over trained in these fields, but it is our responsibility now, to pull out of that rut. We aren’t out of the woods by a long shot. We still have that bloody battle to fight for basic human rights. We have to keep up the struggle- to get great mass es of our people out of the slums, anri secure for them an educa tion that will equip them for cop ing with a more complicated existence. We have to keep plug ging for recognition of our in vestment in this ’country, our eco h.'fn ■ '.* practice in providing heat . iregardless of outside low •.icralann!
