A Bitter Thing
Loneliness, when it comes to a man or woman, can
be a. corrosive, destructive,"'thing. Particularly in the
middle or later years, when family ties have loosened,
and other associations have faded when people such
as this are left alone it is then that loneliness can be
a bitter thing indeed.
In youth there are school associations, dances, a
host of organizations and activities. Later on, too
often, there is nothing.
4
I7RQM time to time this newspaper has been re-
quested to print classified ads by people who are
lonely, and who lack other means of making acquaint
ances. The paper has been forced, reluctantly, to
refuse such ads, for there is little opportunity to check
on the reliability and sincerity of the people who
place them. -
And while undoubtedly the majority are honest
and sincere in purpose, there is always an unscrupu
lous minority who feel no shame in preying on the
loneliness of others, and taking advantage of such
ads in a manner which is both unscrupulous and cruel.
This has happened often enough that most daily pa
pers have similar regulations. .
117HAT is the answer, then?
V The stock answers are to go to church, to join
a lodge or other group, participate in organizational
activities to meet people, and more particularly peo
ple of similar interests of both sexes.
These answers, like many, are too pat, and often
do not solve the problem fofSany one of a hundred
reasons which differ with each individual.
Some churches, particularly in larger cities, have
had success in organizing, under church auspices but
distinct from their religious programs, social groups
appealing to various interests middle aged groups,
young married groups, "golden age" groups, even
groups for divorced men and women.
CUCH organizations have the advantage of having
the principal aim of easing loneliness, and attract
ing people of similar interests. Whether or not they
could be successful in a small community is doubtful,
although one never knows ugtil it has been tried.
Meanwhile, for reasons mentioned above, the Mail
Tribune will continue to decline advertising of the
type described unless and until it can be shown how,
within the limits of a newspaper's operation, it can
Drotect both its advertisers and its readers from cruel
ty and dishonesty of those
heartsick and alone.

THE JOHNSON PROGRAM
Washington For the first
time since President Eisenhow
er's 1952 landslide, the Demo
crats in Con
gress are going
to challenge
the Eisenhow
er administra
tion all the
way down the
line.
That is the
real " meaning
of a little-noted
speech whi c h
Senator Lyn
don Johnson,
Stewart Alsop
Senate Majority Leader, made a
few days ago in Texas. In his
speech, Johnson outlined in sur
prising detail the Democratic
program for the next session of
Congress. Just about every item
of the program he outlined is
carefully designed to catch the
Administration and the Republi
can party neatly between the
ribs.
There is no question that the
Johnson program, which he rath
er lyrically calls "a program
with a heart," is the official
Democratic program. Before he
made his speech, Johnson con
ferred at length with virtually
every Democratic leader, and
there is equaUy no question that
the great majority of Senate
Democrats will unite behind the
program.
Indeed, the fact that he was
able to announce such a program
well in advance of the session is
a remarkable tribute to the par
ty unity Johnson has achieved
in his two years as a Majority
Leader. The program has a
markedly New Dealish flavor,
and two years ago it would have
thrown the Senate Democrats
into a cantankerous uproar. Yet
the best guess here is that John
son can count on nine out of ten
Democratic votes on almost
every item.
Among other things, the pro
gram calls for social security,
health, school, roads and hous
ing programs on distinctly New
Dealish lines. It calls for disaster
insurance, Federal relief to de
pressed areas ,and amendments
to the McCarran Act. It callsj
most importantly for tax relief
for "low income groups," and
for a "farm program which will
restore 90 per cent of parity."
Johnson's unprecedented ac
tion, in announcing such a de
tailed Democratic program long
before Congress is to meet, was
most carefully planned. Its object
is to "attack not react."
'C'ACH item of the program was
carefully selected. On almost
every point, very clearly defined
Party positions have been de
veloped since 1952. On almost
every point, moreover, the Ad
ministration is left holding what
certainly looks now like the
short end of the stick politically.
This is especially true of in-
Monday, November 28, 1955
who would prey upon those
Stewart Alsop
creased tax exemptions, which
would put extra dollars in every
voters' pocket, and which the
Administration opposes. It is
even more true of the farm is
sue, certain to be the most bit
terly fought issue in the next
session of Congress. Shrewd
Democrats also believe that there
is much more political hay to be
made than is generally recog
nized in such issues as schools
and roads.
In short, the Johnson program
is carefully tailored to present
tlje Democratic party in an elec
tion year as "The party with a
hjeart" and the Republican par-J
ty, at least by implication, as the
heartless party. Republicans
would be ill-advised to under-es-timate
the dangers involved.
Yet there are lurking dangers
for Democrats too. One of the
dangers is suggested by the am
biguously worded seventh item
on Johnson's program: "A nat
ural gas bill which will preserve
free enterprise." The issue of
the regulation of natural gas,
which involves hundreds of mil
lions of consumer dollars and
some of the most powerful eco
nomic interests in the country,
threatens to split the Democrats
all over again.
Although the issue was suc
cessfully shoved under the rug
last- session, moreover, it is al
most sure to crop up this time.
It could well become for the
Democrats what the offshore oil
issue was in 1952. And, as in the
case of offshore oil, there is spe
cial danger in the issue for front
running Adlai Stevenson, since
he will make powerful enemies
no matter which side he sup
ports. T'HERE is another special dan
ger for Stevenson as well.
For it has been too often forgot
ten that, although Stevenson
may make the speeches, the Dem
ocratic party in Congress will
make the record. For example,
Stevenson has recently made un
enthusiastic noises about both
rigid parity and a tax cut. But
the Johnson program clearly
means that he will have to get
fully in line on both issues, or
Kind himself isolated by his own
giarty.
- It has also been too often for
gotten that Lyndon Johnson wiU
be a remarkably dominating po
litical figure after the next ses
sion starts. Johnson says that he
is not a candidate for any office,
and that he means to concentrate
on recovering from his heart at
tack. But he is a very well liked
man in his party, and he is not
the only man who has had a
heart attack. All in all, the tall
Texan will be a man to watch in
the months to come, as, he steers
his program through the Senate.

AFL, CIO Prepare for Separate
Meetings Prior To Joint Session
New York (U.P.) Top ex
ecutives of the AFL and CIO
gathered here today to prepare
for their separate conventions
beginning Thursday and for the
inaugural meeting of their
merged forces of 15,100,000
members.
The separate conventions prior
to the joint meeting a week from
today will file the rough spots
off a joint AFL-CIO constitution
agreed months ago. No amend
ments of any substance are ex
pected. Both groups must approve any
changes and are expected to do
so at their historic joint conven
tion. Leaders of the merger
movement hoped for unanimous
approval but there was some
grumbling, notably from Mich
ael J. Quill, head of the CIO
Transport Workers' Union, and
Dave Beck, chief of the AFL
Teamsters.
Prior to the separate conven
tions Thursday executive coun
cils of both groups will meet, the
CIO Tuesday and , Wednesday
and the AFL on Wednesday.
Reuther To Decide
From the CIO meeting may
come decisions of CIO President
Walter Reuther on whether to
run for head of the industrial
union department of the merged
AFL-CIO and whether to support
Quill for the AFL-CIO executive
council in view of his attitude
towards the merger.
The AFL Executive Council
is expected to decide whom it
will nominate for three positions
it still has to fill on the new
Executive Council. The council
will be made up of 17 represent
atives from the AFL and 10
from the CIO, all of whom will
be AFL-CIO vice presidents.
Reuther's annual report and
that of AFL President George
Meany will be issued Thursday.

In the Day's News
By FRANK JENKINS
The interstate commerce com
mission ordered an end today to
racial segregation on interstate
trains and buses. It also rules
that racial segregation in public
waiting rooms is unlawful.
In past years the commission
has gone along with the theory
that separate accommodations
for the races ("Jim Crow" cars
and waiting rooms) met require
ments of the interstate com
merce act as long as the accom
modations were equal. In to
day's ruling it added:
"The disadvantage to a travel
er who is assigned accommoda
tions or facilities so designated
as to imply his inherent infe
riority solely because of his race
must be regarded under present
conditions as unreasonable."
THE trouble started when the
first African slave was
brought to America. We are un
dergoing now the pains involved
in the correction of that origi
nal tragic mistake.
VlfHO started the slave trade to
the Americas?
I suppose the discredit belongs
to King Charles I of Spain, who
in 1516 gave colonists and slave
traders permission to take slaves
into the Spanish colonies of the
New World.
The slave trade became so
profitable that seveYal nations
took part in it. By the time of
the American Revolution Brit
ish ships were carrying about
half the slaves that were
brought to the Western world.
The British became ashamed of
their part in it, and in 1807 the
House of Commons passed a bill
forbidding the slave trade. Sla
very was abolished in all British
colonies in 1833.
In January of 1808, the young
United States prohibited further
importation of slaves. This legal
ly ended the overseas slave
trade, but the institution of sla
very endured in our country un
til it was ended by the bloody
War between the States.
THAT raises an interesting
question:
Was the Civil War NECES
SARY to end slavery in our
country? v
I doubt it. Given time and tol
erance and WISE LEADER
SHIP, the conscience of Amer
ica would have put an end to
slavery WITHOUT WAR.
rpHAT brings up another inter
esting question:
Is war inevitable between the
free world, as led by the United
States, and the Communist slave
world, as led by Russia.
T DOUBT that also.
Given time and tolerance
and wise and far-seeing leader
ship AND SUSTAINED MILI
TARY AND INDUSTRIAL SU
PERIORITY on the part of the
United States I feel that it may
be possible to avoid war be
tween these sharply conflicting
systems.
After all, Communism is as
foul as was the system of human
slavery. I can't help believing
that if time enough can be pro
vided the Communist system
will fall of the weight of its own
foulness as slavery in our own
country would have fallen with
out war if time and tolerance
enough and wise enough leader
ship could have been provided.

Labor To Fight for
Statement Favoring
Federal School Aid
Washington (U.P.) Labor del-
egates served notice today they
will fight to have the White
House Conference on Education
issue a strong statement in favor
of federal aid to schools.
Their opening gun will be an
attempt to change the procedure
of the four-day conference to per
mit floor debate on the federal
aid question. Rules for the con
erence, which opens tonight, now
provide for no overall debates or
voting.
The conference the first of
its kind was called by Presi
dent Eisenhower to cope with
problems facing the nation's
schools.
About 100 delegates from the
CIO, AFL and railroad brother
hoods decided at a strategy ses
sion Sunday night to push for a
full-fledged debate on federal
aid the hottest issue before the
meeting. Some labor delegates
charged the session is stacked
against federal aid.
Protest Labor Voice
- The group also protested that
labor is inadequately repre
sented. Conference Chairman Neil Mc
Elroy said he does not see how
the procedure for the meeting
can be changed at this late date.
Under the rules, all discusions
will be carried on through 130
round tables of about 10 dele
gates each. Round table chair
men will meet in a series of pro
gressively smaller panels to dis
till the views of the 1,800 dele
gates into a final report to the
President.
McElroy said: "We are not
gathered here to listen to a series
of speeches, to pass resolutions,
or to add up votes for or against
the various possible solutions of
our school problems." ,
Delinquent Girls
Sought in Slaying
Of Matron
Akron, O. (U.P.) Police
launched a sweeping search to
day for three of five delinquent
girls wanted for the slaying of a
detention home matron Sunday
night.
The five escaped in a freezing
snowstorm. Two of the girls gave
themselves up several hours
later
Police said the teenage girls
bound Eula Bonham; 59, resident
matron at the home, with string
and stuffed her mouth with wash
cloths soaked in ammonia. The
two recaptured girls said the
group had planned the murder
and escape for days and had re
hearsed it Sunday.
Talked Into Surrendering
The two, Merle Cain, 16, and
Margaret Nichols5n, 15, said
their boy friends talked them
into surrendering.
The three still at large were
identified as Ruth Beichler, 16;
Zelda de' Cost, 16, and Shirley
Shingler, 15.
No charge had been filed
against the girls, police said. Two
of the girls had sex delinquency
backgrounds and one had once
been held for trying to knife a
man with whom she had been
drinking.
Died Instantly
- Police said the matron appar
ently died instantly after the
rags were jammed down her
throat. The girls had hoarded
the ammonia from supplies used
for cleaning floors, police said.
The girls apparently jumped
the matron when she entered
their locked dormitory on a rou
tine inspection, police said. They
escaped through a smashed win
dow and raced into a snowstorm,
wearing only short-sleeved prison
dresses.
Miss Bonham was to have been
married in a few days, officers
said. '

tions he does. He also will serve
as a vice president, as a member
of the AFL-CIO Executive Coun
cil and probably as a member of
the Executive Committee.
Undoubtedly the labor lead
ers will have something to say
about remarks of several of the
speakers to address the five-day
convention.
They include Adlai Stevenson,
announced candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomin
ation; Gov. Averell Harriman of
New York; Labor Secretary
James P. Mitchell, and Marion
Folsom, secretary of the Depart
ment of Health, Education and
Welfare. President Eisenhower
will send a message to the convention.
He defended the round tables
system as giving every delegate
a chance to express his views.
McElroy also warned against
overemphasizing the problem of
school financing. He said many
other important problems face
the schools. Finding enough
teachers is "perhaps the most
stubborn of all." he said.
The labor group voted to hold
another strategy session Wednes
day night, after the first round
table discussion.
The conference will be opened
with a filmed message from Mr,
Eisenhower and speeches by Vice
President Richard M. Nixon and
McElroy.
Sixth Suspect in
Drug Ring Captured
Portland (U.P.) A sixth sus

. Merrill identified the suspect
as Eddie Williams, 23, Portland.
He wes accused of selling mari

Farm Production
Costs Seen Unchanged
Washington (U.R) The Agri
culture Department predicts
"little overall change" in farm
production costs in 1956.
The department's periodical,
The Farm Cost Situation, gave
these 1956 predictions of farm
cost rates yesterday as compared
to this year:
Feed and seeds expected to
be somewhat lower on the aver
age. Fertilizer, farm supplies and
livestock for feeding and replace
ment expected to remain fair
ly stable.
Farm wage rates, interest rates
and prices of building and fenc
ing materials, farm machinery,
motor vehicles and motor sun-
plies expected to be' slightly
higher.
Farm property taxes per acre
expected to be about five rer
cent higher.
Air Force To Relax
Coast Defense System
San Francisco (U.R) The
Air Force said today it will relax
its air defense system along the
entire Pacific Coast Thursday to
permit freer travel by commer
cial and private aircraft.
Planes approaching the coast
from the ocean or over the Sierra
will still face challenge from
armed jet fighters if they have
not previously identified them
selves, the Air Force said.
But the area from the coast
line to the eastern mountains in
Washington, Oregon and Cali
fornia will be open to unimpeded
air traffic.
An Air Force spokesman said
the three states will still be
"boxed in by guarded aerial
frontiers," but the change will
"cut down the immense load of
paperwork and radio transmit
tals." The Air Force also announced
that the Air Defense Filter Com
munications Center in Oakland,
which handles calls from 85
ground observer posts in Cali
fornia, will be moved to Reno
to "remove it from a prime tar
get area."

Retreat by U.N. On

By CHARLES M. McCANN

The United Nations may pos

is that there is
a limit to the

tries. Fourteen na-
cnarles McCauo tions of the SO-
called Arab-Asian block in the
United Nations had proposed that
the Assembly, now in its yearly
session in New York, debate the
situation in Algeria.
The ground cited was that
France held Algeria solelv bv
force and that the United Na

of Algerians for freedom.

which passes on items submitted
for Assembly action, voted eight
to five against a debate.
France Walked Out
But on Sept 29, the Assembly
overrode the committee. It voted
28 to 27 to debate the Algeria
issue. French Foreign Minister
Antoine Pinay Jled his delega
tion out of the Assembly. His
action was promptly confirmed
by his government. France thus
formally established a boycott
of the Assembly.
Last Friday, however, the As
sembly voted unanimously to
forget it an. o
Strangely, the resolution un
der which the United Nations
back-tracked was worked out by
V. M. Krishna Menon of India.
India, increasingly friendly to
ward Soviet Russia, has been a
leader in the campaign against
the so-called colonialism of coun
tries like France, Great Britain
and The Netherlands.
Here is what the U.N. charter
says:
"Nothing contained in the
present charter s?iall authorize
tne" United Nations to intervene
in matters which are essentially
within the domestic jurisdiction
of any state or shaft require the
members to submit such matters
to settlement under the present
cnarter."
It happens that Algeria poli
tically is a part of France it
self. It is not a protectorate like
Morocco or Tunisia. Algeria is
represented in the French Parlia
ment. Veto Threatened
Thus, technically it is more
essentially a part of France than
Puerto Rico Alaska and Hawaii
are of the United States.
France, in its protest against
U.N. meddling in the situation
in Algeria, was able to frack up
its stand. Though it boycotted
the Assembly, it did not boycott
the Security Council. In that
11-nation committee, which is
the real power in the United Na
tions, it has the right of veto
along with the United States,
Great Britain, Nationalist China
and Soviet Russia.
France threatened, for one
thing, to veto the proposed ad
mission of Spain to U. N. mem
bership under the "package deal"
by which 18 new members are
to be brought in.
The United Nations' action on
Algeria is a big victory for
France. It also is a victory for

Christ Healed Her
GEO. N. TAYLOR
For 12 years she had suffered
from, a chronic disease. Her
money was gone and she grew
not better, but
worse. When
she heard that
Jesus was near
she edged thru
the crowd;
touched His
robe and was
wholly and in
stantly healed.
Jesus demand
ed who touch
ed Him for He
knew that sav
ing faith was back of it. The
woman confessed to it and Jesus
said "Go in peace, your faith
has saved you." Mark 5th.
Now fix your eye on a mother
of today who morning by morn
ing worried lest the school bus
be wrecked and her kiddie in
jured. Finallj she left her fears
with the Lord and He took away
her worry. Now the noint is that
both women were saved by
faith. So what for you? First,
receive Jesus Christ into your
heart as the Lord and Saviour
who died for you. At that God
gives you eternal life. And read
your Bible and grow Bible-faith
and Christ-likeness,. .
