2 The) Newa-Rovlow, Roteburg, Or Thur., Msr. 30, 19S0 Pcul Robeson, Elinded By Commie Hooey, Not Fit For Debate On TV By BRUCE BIOSSAT Scheduling Paul Robeson, Negro linger and avowed Communist,' on Mrs. Franklin D, Roosevelt's television program waa a aad mistake. Canceling his appearance doesn't offset the error. It en ables him to pose as a martyr, a role any Communist loves. Th story of this Incident act ually is a sequence of errors. II began when Mrs. Reosevelt'e son, .Elliott, who is co-producer of her television panel discussions, asked C. B. (Beanie) Baldwin to name one panel member to discuss "The American Negro's Position In Pol itics Today." Baldwin is national secretary of the Progressive party which Henry Wallace heads. No more woolly minded group exista in America. This giddy gang makes a fine specially of avoiding reality. Ell iott waa wrong to rely upon Bald win's judgment. - It should have bees no surprise that Beanie'a choice was Robeson. He probably delighted in naming so controversial a figure. Here waa Elliott's second error: he should have vetoed the selection. No on questions Robeson's right (o talk as long and as often as he chooses. But the singer haa swal lowed the Communist party line, with all that implies for the closing of his mind to demonstrable facta. There is real doubt, therefore, whether he is capable of contribut ing to any honest discussion of the Negro's problems. To Russia'a Communist leaders.

The figure also waa about two percent over January, 19V), after allowing for seasonal and other differences. , the American Negro haa been a man whose woes could be exploit ed for propaganda advantage. Hi cause haa not been eapouaed through any genuine concern for bis welfare. That being so, fair minded dis cussion of the Negro's difficulties could only be warped and distorted by the injection o f Communist views. Robeson, who openly d e clares his satisfaction with the Soviet approach, is consequently not qualified to ait in a forum of honest debaters on this subject. Especially aince the panel would enjoy the' prestige lent by Mrs. Roosevelt 'a name. Mrs. Roosevelt herself should have stricken Robeson from the psnel list once he got past the preliminary barriers. Her undoubt ed desire to how good will to ward men of all opinions shouldn't lead her to promote, even indirect ly, the fakery the Communists of fer as legitimate argument. Fos tering free speech is one thing; dignifying dishonest debate is quite another. Everyone conrerned in this case. except Beanie Baldwin, ought to have had more good sense. MP", , 18 V.

( flUIS'CHflkXlGRS SAUS AND SIRVlCI 0 Settlement Of ' Hiring Hall Issue Purpose Of Bill WASHINGTON. March 30 -ijpt-. Senator Magnuson (D-Wash) says that a change in the Taft-Hartley labor law la needed more than ever to settle the maritime hiring hall controversy. He predicted that the aupreme court's new refusal to rule on the legality of the unions' hiring prac tices would speed action on a bill he haa introduced to amend the labor act. The bil! would exempt from the T H closed shop ban maritime union hiring' hall agreementa in effect before June 15, 1947. Under these agreements shipping firms "obtain union crewa for replacements. The high court refused Monday, for the second rime, to review, a decision of the National Labor Re lations beard finding the hiring hall to be a violation of the act. Magnuson said the appeal to the court had been "the last resort" of maritime uniona and only a change in the law itself could help now. Both CIO and AFL maritime uniona have urged Congress to ex empt their hiring practicea from the closed shop ban. Union leaden threatened a gen eral atrike of some 100.000 aeasmen eral atrike of aome 100,000 aeamen halls illegal. The unions said that abandon ment of the hiring hall would mean a return to "cut-throat" job war fare on the waterfront. They argued that before the hiring hall was es tablished in the early 1930s there had been "unjust and inhuman" hiring practicea. Most Atlantic and Pacific coast shippers have favored the union hiring hall. Some big Great Lakes shippers, on the other hand, op- Lorejw Audltnet Htor Talk At Kallotjcj Gran?

BIRTH RECORDS SECRIT CHICAGO (JPi A growing num ber of statea are putting the "con fidential" label on birth records. The aim la to protect children who are illegitimate or adopted. The American Public Welfare as sociation saya 14 statea now are using that plan and six others are expected to put it into effect this year. "Once filed, the birth certificate becomes a confidential record," the Association aaya. "It can be seen or copied only by the individual concerned, hia parents, guardians or attorneys or by officials author ized by a specific court order." posed it, contending that they were forced to accept anybody the union sent them, regardless of past rec ord for drunkenness or desertion. Magnuson said that both Repub licans and Democrats in the Sen ate have indicated they will sup port his amendment. New Snack Food Devised From Rice Treatment By RENNIB TAYLOR AModaud Prcw arleac Editor ALBANY, Calif., March SO W Now you caa take your rice in crispy, crunchy curlicues instead of in soup, pudding, risotto, a la ' creoie or spanisn. I This new anack food, comoarsble to potato chips or corn chips, was developed at the U. S. Agricultural department research laboratory here. It was described to the sec ond national rice research confer ence in a report prepared by E. B Kester, one of the originators. It is called rice curls. It ia good for the rice grower aa well aa the consumer because broken graina can be utilized in making it. To develop rice curl the research era took a few handfula of ground rice and about an equal volume of hot water and stirred them together into a stiff paste. This waa molded into yards of material about the diameter of soda atrawa and cooked in deep fat under a moderately bot fire for a little mora than two minutes. The result was a golden brown maas of crisp, porous curia which were aalted and sprinkled with a little monosodium alula mate to ac cent their natural flavor. People around the laboratory aampled them and called for more. The researchers put some in cov ered jars and let them aund around lour weeka. They did not become stale or rancid. Thia indicates, Kester said, that they will keep pretty well on grocers' aheivea. You can make them in the kitchen with ordinary cooking equipment but if you really want to go into the business you can aet up a plant that will turn out 300 Iridgti Perjury Trial May SAN FRANCISCO, March -W The Harry Bridges perjury trial should go to the jury Friday afternoon.
