NegroesJJobs and the Economy The ."racial problem" in this country is inti mately related to the problems discussed above. The Negro worker under-educated, too often unskilled, and still subject to prejudices 'which have nothing to do. with innate abilities but only with skin color is, in the telling .'phrase, "last hired, first fired." . A . ., He is the first victim of an upsurge of unem ployment, and the last to be made productive again when employment climbs. Unless he can overcome the now-almost insurmountable difficulties facing him he will never be able to take his rightful place in society. 1XHAT good is it if a Negro has a "right" to " sit at any lunch counter he 'wishes, but can not afford to do so?

What good is it if he is no longer automati cally barred from employment because of his skin color, but is still not hired because he doesn't have the knowledge nor the skill to do the job? e IT IS THUS that education and training and re 1 training, the rate of economic growth, and an entirely new set of attitudes, not only about the Negro as a citizen but about employment in gen eral, arc necessary before any real solution to the "racial problem" can be acenieved. The racial problem, in terms of civil l ights, is on the way to solution. But the racial problem, in terms of economics where it is crucial is still a long way from being solved.

In tact tha contrary is often Sin and the Church To the Editor: Your "What Happened to Sin" (MT 627) reminded me that the saga of man not only tella of his "gods many and lords many," but Iso reveals that, rellgion- wise, "he mounted his horse and rode off in all directions!" He learned along the way, however, to exercise caution when attempting to define sin"; that, like Joseph s coat. it was of "many colors." Someone told him that "Sin is this to you, and that to me"; another, "Nothing is right or wrong but thinking makes it so"; while long ago he was admonished to "Judge not that ye be not judged." He read that even the great Socrates only searched for knowledge and wisdom; that his philosophy was always a quest, never body of doc trine. There is today a growing skepticism with regard to all beliefs that cannot be proved In the arena of life or in the relentless laboratory of sci ence. Even Einstein, when inked how ha discovered rela tivity, answerea: uy cnai lenging an axiom. Skeptics long ago repudi ated the doctrine of "original sin." As one stated; "I can't imagine a Supreme Being creating an earth just to pop ulate it with sinnersl Nor can I accept the idea of an inno cent man paying the penalty for a crime he did not commit. Even man-made law punishes only the guilty." It seems that today less emphasis is being placed on sin and more upon the dignity of man and his nobleness when he lives The Golden Rule. Could It be that people are becoming more interested in making a "heaven on earth" than in their soul's salvation, and are longing to become like the fabled Abou Ben Adhem, whose "name led all the rest" as the result of his prayer to the angel: "Write me as one that loves his fcllow-mcn"? In closing, 1 quote from t cliping that I pasted in my scrap book many years ago: "You cannot make a man's soul responsible before the Judgment and deny him his rights on earth. If you talk salvation on Sunday you must stand for human rights on Monday, or be a blasphemer.

Ken Mayer 817 Broad st. Medford. A Comparison To tha Editor: Paul Harvey, In his broadcast of July 4th, gave the personal histories of the 56 men who signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4, 1778. A compari son of condition then and now Is in order. -Then, as now, our country was at a crossroad. Then the colonies were ruled by a for eign power whose appointed governors were reinforced by the power of British troops. Now our danger is from those within our country who are working to turn our country over to Communist control as was done in Czechoslovakia and Poland, this to be accom plished by 1970. It is the firm determination of the John Birch members and other "Right Wingers" to prevent this if humanly possible. In 1776 the determination of the leaders who signed the Declar ation of Independence was to rid the country of foreign con trol and establish a new coun try with a republican govern ment which would give each individual citizen more free dom than had ever before been known under any gov ernment. The aim of the "Right Wing" now Is to pre serve what those 56 men gave us. These 56 men were men of Irreproachable character. Some were lawyers, others were farmers or plantation owners. Still others were en gaged in various business pur suits. Ail were men of educa tion and culture. Also all had some degree of wealth be cause each had made a success of his own personal life. As a result each was a trusted lead er In his community. And each one was a man of great courage because each knew that to sign that document was to sign his own death warrant. As leaders in what was then the "Right Wing" move ment of their day, there was heaped upon them all the scorn, smears, and calumny that are now being fieaped upon the John Birch members and others. In addition many had lo go Into hiding all lost wealth. One died in rags and was buried In an unmarked grave. One, when he came out of hiding, found that his wife had died in prison and his children scattered. What was so true of them is also true of the Right Wing leaders of today. Against not one of them have the Com munists been able to bring any derogatory accusation. As a result they are smeared as being: "(1) wildly misin formed and appallingly gul lible: (2) incredibly stupid: CD nuts." Their personal records show nothh.jr could be farther from the truth.

Now it has "organized bigness. Prof. Choh-Ming LI, chair man of the center for Chinese studies at the University of California, has drawn up a In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS As this is written, two breeds of Communists are holding a big pow-wow in Moscow. One faction is led by Russia's Mr. Khrushchev. The other is captained by Red China's Mao Tze-Tung. One of the correspondents with a penchant for big words puts the situation this way: "Khrushchev s policy holds that while East cannot meet West politically, because of the clashing of ideologies, they can live side by side through peaceful coexistence. 'But the Chinese line of Mao Tze-Tung is the converse East, he says, not only cannot meet West but East must DE STROY West - with nuclear war, if necessary. SOUNDS COMPLICATED, doesn't it? In an effort to simplify the situation, let's put it like this: Kroosh holds that if you can't agree with the way your neighbor runs his establish ment the two of you can still live in the same block. These Commies are all fond of big words, so Kroosh calls it CO EXISTING. He thinks you might even go so far as to nod your neighbor over the fence. i Old Mao disagrees sharply with that kind of living; He says you must SHOOT: the S of a B. People like that, he contends, mustn't be allowed to live. That's about the long and the short of this Communist quarrel that is filling the papers and clogging the air waves. JOW TO SETTLE IT? Well, back in the dim vistas of the past, an unknown au thor offered a solution that is worth considering. He cited a quarrel between the Shah and the Czar. It was an irrecon cilable conflict-but. instead of going to war, they decided to settle it by personal combat, So each chose a retainer to represent him. The unknown author describes them as fol lows, beginning with the Shah s gladiator, whom he pictured thus: "The sons of the prophet are brave men and bold, "And quite unaccustomed to fear, "But the bravest by far in the ranks of the Shah "Was Abdul the Bulbul Amir." H E THEN WENT on to tell would uphold the Czar's cause. Of him, the unknown author said: "Now the heroes were plen ty and well known to fame "In the troops that were led by the Czar, "And the bravest of these was a man by the name "Of Ivan Peruskl Skavar, INHERE ISN'T SPACE here -- to tell in minute detail of the conflict. It was long and it was harrowing-as will be recalled by all Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, with whom the verses used to be very popular indeed. They helped to while away the tedium of long hikes and dull the pangs of trail hunger. But the conflict was event ually settled. As I recall, it ended in a draw. Anyway, it saved a lot of lives. And it saved the subjects of the Shah and the Czar a lot of tax money. Wars, you know, don't come for free. CO... J For what It Is worth . . . This solution of their prob lem is offered to Old Kroosh and Old Mao. Personally, I think it would be a very good idea indeed. Think of the gate money they could rake In. It would fill their treasuries to the bursting point. Everybody in the world would want to see it. And the outcome, whatever it might be, would probably be just as satisfactory to all concerned as if they went to war.

"It has," he notes in the current issue of Challenge magazine "extended its po litical and economic influence to as far away as Cuba in the Western Hemisphere,. Albania in Eastern Europe, Guinea and Ghana in Africa, not to mention the Chinese military adventures in the Far East and Southeast Asia." And it is from this position of strength that Red China now challenges the Soviet Union and Nikita Khrushchev for leadership of the Com munist world, despite serious and continuing problems at home. Professor Li's study is pri marily economic. He notes that Red China reached its present status both with the help of its military pact with the Soviet Union and through effective political control of the people. But the chief contributing factor, he believes, was Red China s i n d u s t r 1 alization, which enabled her to more than quadruple productive ca pacity in the years from 1954 through 1958, enhancing her military might. This was the "great leap forward" which in 1958 merged with the rural com munes. The communes were to do for agriculture what al ready was being done indus trially. But mismanagement, three years of drought and a mis calculation of the effects of Strictly Personal By Sydney J. Harris fc Field Enterpriser. Inc. The phrase "neglected child" conjures up a picture of slums and broken families, of poverty and drunkenness and cruelty, in the familiar pattern of the social work er's case-history. I think another kind of neglect is even . more wide spread, and just as deleterious in its effects. I Harris a m thinking of the ordinarily intelligent middle-class child who , is rarely, if ever, treated like a person by its parents, but only as a child. A few weeks ago I was chatting with an 8-ycar-old girl of the most appalling ig norance. She didn't know her birthdate, what her father did for a living, how old her teen age brother was (she guessed "37"), or the most common place facts that any 5-year-old should be aware of. This was not a stupid child, but a profoundly neg lected one, in th social and psychological lenses. It was quit evident from our conversation (and I hasten to add that she was not shy, simply nescient) that her home life is utter ly devoid of dialog in any real way. This child was in tellectually underprivileg ed, and may remain crip pled by it for a lifetime. As much as food and drink, love and c ompan ionship, a child needs some stimulation at home that can ba got nowhere else in the early years. A child re quires information, en lightenment, serious dis course at its own aga level. Mora than this, a child des perately needs puns and word-games, riddles and jokes, putties and poems. These Utter, contrary to popular thought, are not mere luxuries: they ara tha basic fabric out of which tha adult personality is loomed. Tha parents of this 8-year-old girl will dutiful ly sand har to college, even if thay can't afford it, will give her a "good education" -but by then it will ba too lata. Education, as Justice Holmee said, begins in the womb, before tha child it even born. Like so many millions of others, she hRs little curiosity, no interest in words or the ideas they convey, no sense of the richness and diversity and wonder of the universe. The parents, perhaps, suppose that somehow she will get all this at school-which is a monstrous fallacy almost wrecking our entire educa tional system. Parents, of course, should not push or lead too fast, or expect too much too soon. But for every one set of parents who do this, a thousand do nothing: they are content if the child has surface good manners, is "obedient," and keeps out of the way. They would be angry and horrified to be told that their home contains a well-fed, scrubbed "neglected child." human nature, reversed the great leap forward which then became the "great fall back ward." China was forced into the world market to buy grains, to restore private plots to the peasants and permit a limited amount of capitalism. This year, with the help of the private plots, grain pro duction is reported about back to the 1958 level. Industrially, other reports say the Chinese still are having trouble. Steel production last year may have been about half of the peak of 18 million tons reported in 1960. A shortage of coal is said to have reduced all heavy in dustry to about 60 per cent of capacity. But with all her difficul ties, Red China-has neither eased up on her dispute with Matter of Fact By Joseph Alsop (e) Nw York Herald Tribune Syndicate CANDIDATE WITH A DIFFERENCE New York - Unlike large numbers of other Republican politicians, Gov. Nelson A. Rockefeller is emphatically not counting himself out of the Republi cs i Presiden tial race. He is still an active candi date for the R e p u b Iican nomination in AJSOP 1964 - but a candidate with a difference. He does not pretend to anv. one, and least of all to him- self, that his remarriage has not knocked into a cocked hat his former happy position of prospective nominee-by-acclamation. But he adds that the abrunt change in his situation has one good side. Great numbers of Republicans all over the country clearly consider that the Governor's remarriage has released them from their former commitments or semi- commitments to him; and that is bad. But by the same token, Rockefeller has also been re leased from his commitments to them; and that is on the whole good. "I'm freed," is the way he puts it. "I can do a decent job." TN BLUNTER words, Gov-- ernor Rockefeller is no longer required to carry wa ter on both shoulders or to try to be all things to all men. He does not need to pay inces sant court to the so-called con servative wing of the Repub lican party, or to hint to all and sundry that he would love to have Senator Barry Goldwater of Arizona as his running mate - as he was do ing while he could still hope for an almost unopposed nom ination. In that earlier period, Sen ator Goldwater almost cer tainly meant what he said (and is still saying) about not becoming an active Presiden tial candidate. Today, how ever, quite largely because of Rockefeller's intervening set back, Goldwater can hardly avoid becoming an active can didate, even if he wishes to do so. And Goldwatcr's can didacy will also keep Rocke feller in the race, even if he might wish to get out of the race under circumstances. This is because the elector al strategy Goldwater has al ways urged upon the Republi cans is to ignore the Northern Negroes "who never vote Re publican anyway," and to go after the electoral votes of the Southern segregationist states that used to compose the Democratic "Solid South." Goldwater is no racist, but a Goldwater candidacy will automatically make the Re publican party into the "white man's party." ill I DS "He must ba dalarminad ts get hit civil rights bill passed he brought back shillelagh from dear ole Ireland!" the Soviet Union nor slowed her economic offensive abroad. Professor LI points out that since 1954, Red China has established trade relations with more than 80 countries outside the Communist bloc. She has, moreover, extend ed economic grants, technical assistance and low - interest, long-term loans to such coun tries as Albania, Cuba, Hun gary, Mongolia, North Korea and North Vietnam in tha Communist bloc, plus Algeria, Burma, Ghana and a halt dozen others on the outside. Furthermore, these commit ments have increased stead ily. "In fact," Professor LI con cludes, "internal stress and difficulties may impel Com munist China to become bold er and more aggressive in it external relations." HPHAT unpleasant phrase is already being used with relish by some Republican politicians, who think that Goldwater can be elected President with the Southern electorial votes, plus enough, votes recruited in the North by Negro excesses in ths present agonizing racial cri sis. But Governor Rockefeller is genuinely appalled by tha mere idea of his party's tak ing what will amount to art anti-civil rights stand. He is appalled as a man -his great-grandfather ran a station on the underground railroad, and a Negro educa tion was one of the first majoe fields of his grandfather's ex penditure for public purposes. But he is also appaled as m Republican. In his own state, fop in stance, the so-called conserv atives ran a candidate against him in the last election who pulled well under 150,000 votes. Governor Rockefeller was re-elected by just over half-a-million votes; and at least that many Negroes and Puerto Ricans voted for him. Sen. Jacob Javits, who got a far larger majority, also owed nis Dig win almost wholly to minority group support. Such are the practical rea sons why the Governor is con vinced it will be fatal for the Republicans to "foreclose the opportunity of leadership in the industrial states. "For these practl-al reasons as well as the moral reasons already noted, the transformed Rock efeller candidacy will be a fighting candidacy. He will fight to "defend the heritage of Abraham Lincoln." fPHERE are several things to be said about this. In the first place, everyone who gives a snap of his fingers for true Americanism will ba grateful if Rockefeller real izes this conception of his can didacy. The effect on the United States hardly bears thinking about if one of the two great political parties willingly ac cepts the role of the "while man's party." If Governor Rockefeller fights unyield ingly against this new Repub lican trend, he will deserva gratitude and admiration, whether he wins or loses. In the second place, even the hardest fight on this great issue of principle may well fail to gain the Republican nomination for Rockefeller. But if such a fight is mada with persistence and skill, it is at least likely to defeat Republican advocates of whit Senator Goldwater calls the "Southern strategy." In that event, even if Rock efeller is not nominated, his fight will tend to secure tha nomination for another Re publican with much the same outlook. He can hope,, in short, to be either victor or kingmaker - which is a pretty satisfying return for doing the right thing.
