January 10, 1017 ff ill 11 lie ( ill And Dr ied ? _ The opening of North Carolina’s 1947 Gen eral Assembly this week is causing little concern and attracting next to no attention from the public, generally. The body, more or less august, has long followed a cut-and dried policy, and some arc asking will it re peat its past performances Back in the thirties, a sales tax was im posed as the last resort to head off financial failure. It was described as an emergency measure. The emergency has long since past, but the tax is still with us. It has been altered, to be sure, but the old cut-and-dried policy is to still hang on to the tax. The people have about given up in the battle against the tax. but they are wonder ing about the fate of other issues? Will they be given an opportunity to voice their stand on liquor? Will they see the passage of leg islation designed to wipe out the shame surrounding health? Will they see educa tion come into its own in the way of living ■salaries’’ = Is the fate of these and similar issues al lready sealed'? Will they be aired in the light of progress, or will they be given the run around? These are timely questions, and how they arc answered will, no doubt, have a bearing on the future of the Democratic .Party in North Carolina. The Only Tiling To I ear Is Tear The anti-Russian propaganda in some quarters has gone to the length of seeking to rehabilitate the Nazis in Germany, based an the silly fear that the Communists can ick the world and impose its ideology on democratic America. It is born of distrust ►n the efficacy of the democratic system and lorgetfulness of the fact that Russia was a strong ally when the allied forces defeated the Nazis and Fascists. Some people have short memories. They forget that Roose velt’s wise diplomacy kepi Stalin and Churchill as allies, though they were far a pari in thier views, at the time when unity of Russia, Britain, and the United States was essential to save the world from totali _iy<_gp,y1 ija that unity of the allies ■ , chaos is invit<‘d Ke ",’■ f at , fys' kiv ■ ■ wisclv as Mrs. Roosevelt in her arisen- 'in rhursdaj s papers. * Answering those, propaganxiyst'’ who arc afraid .-if them <?b ado-tv-Mr Ft velt said: Now. here we are, with a responsible£on gressional group recommending that we re establish the strength of a former enemy as a buffer against an allied power—Rus sia. Either we believe that the democracies ! of the world are strong enough to live with the Russian system and prove our strength, ! or else we are so fearful of the strength of | the Soviets that we are here and now de claring economic and political war upon them—which is certainly not the way to get agreement on a one-world theory and on control of atomic energy. I cannot believe that our President and our State Depart- J ment back this extraordinary reporl These are the wisest words that have been uttered and a rebuke to those Americans and others who are stampeded by Fear. Mrs. Roosevelt is writing in the spirit of her great husband who in an hour of domestic near bankruptcy heartened the people by declaring: "The only thing to fear is Fear.” Education Holds Destiny of the II orld Harold E. Stassen In my views the education of children of the world will determine ultimately wheth er or not the United Nations Organization reaches its high goals and its cherished ob jectives. The spotlight of the news will be upon the public figures, and will follow the diplomats as they move about the world. But the teachers in the classrooms of the world will determine in the long view whether or not the nations of the world live together in peace. . . . The four great dang ers to continuing peace are: ignorance, pre judice, bigotry, and greed. And each of those ... is minimized by true education. This sets forth in stark outline the challenge and responsibility of the educators of the World. Railroad R<ites The rate' increase recently granted the rail toads has been declared vital to the existence • of the transportation system. It is admitted that costs have gone up. that possibly traffic volume- has dropped from the wartime peak. But are the railroads throwing off the finan ciers' yoke? Are they still paying a premium j on borrowed money? Have they loosened the manipulators’ grip? Have they cut out un- | necessary expenses? Before any man, spokesman or commis sion .says an increase in railroad rates are vital, let them answer these simple and just questions.
