Bailey Foundation
Does It Again
The Bailey Foundation, through its trus-
tess, has again manifested its interest in
Clinton’s ctapitable and eleemosynary cor
porations.
This time, by its recent gift to Thomwell
Orphanage for remodeling and re-equipping
its laundry. President M. A. Macdonald of
Thornwell has announced the gift of more
than $22,000 by the Foundation for this very
necessary and vital plant in Thomwell’s op
eration.
And this is not the first time that Thorn-
well has Uen a beneficiary of the Founda
tion.
Neither is Thomwell the only Clinton in
stitution that has l**nefite<I through the
f generosity of the Foundation’* trustee*. The
physical asset* of both lYesbyterian College
and the First Presbyterian Church have been
largely increased through that source.
The residents of Clinton and Lydia Cotton
Mills communities, of course, are constantly
th* comern of the Foundation trustee*. evi«
den»e of which is reflected in several hand-
•ome churches of various denominations.
Mrm»«er« of *he Bailey family and miB of-
finals w ho are trustee* of the Foundation are
a>>out as a\rr*e to public notice a* anybody I
wr know Hut we )u»t couldn’t resist saying
that the Bailey Foundation is another of the )
good thing* that has happened to ClmUm.
Where Resolution
Is Needed
New York City, like many another Amer
ican community, has been bedeviled with ju
venile delinquency in the schools. In New
York’s case, major crimes of violence, di
rected against both students and teachers,
have occurred in and out of the school build
ings.
New York’s school board was borebearing
as long as possible. But finally the crisis be
came acute and 644 of the worst delinquents
were summarily suspended. This move, to
most minds, would seem inevitable and prop
er—if there is any place where a criminal
element must be weeded out, - it is in the
schools. Yet, National Review reports, a
number of well-known organizations con
nected with education protested in extreme
ly strong terms.
National Review offers the hope that the
suspended students “will be rehabilitated,
and reintegrated in their classrooms.” It then
adds. "And let us meanwhile hope that the
ideologues will not succeed in undermining
the resolution of the Uiard to banish razor
blades, obscenities, rape and thuggery from
the curriculum of the New York school sys
tem.'* Such resolution is needed in every
community where the delinquency problem
exists. We have tried {tampering and excus
ing delinquents, and all that has done is to
make matters worse. A youthful criminal is
still a criminal—and action must be taken Hold Quarterly
in the light of that fact. ^

At The State Level
On February 5, the House l^abor Subcom
mittee voted, by a 4-3 margin, against start-
mg hearings on certain proposed amendments
to the Taft-Hartley law. The proposals, which
came from President Eisenhower, involved
the serious secondary boycott problem along
with other matters.
One of the representatives who voted
against the hearings said that any action
should be delayed until the McClellan Com
mittee completes its inquiry into labor and
management racketeering. A great many
|KH»ple \ttlll find that argument unconvincing.
The McClellan Committee has already pro
duced a wealth of dismaying evidence of cor
ruption and abuses, and has certainly proven
that ne\i_legislation is needed.
In any event, the House Subcommittee’s
action has made it most unlikely that Taft-
Hartley revision will be considered at this
session of Congress. The nation will have to
continue to wait. And the reluctance of Con
gress to move makes it all the more impor
tant that we press for fair and necessary re
forms at the state level. There is plenty of
roorp for achievement here—as is proven by
the fact that 16 states have adopted right-
to-work laws. An important test of this law’s
public standing will occur next fall in Cali
fornia, where Senator Know!and has made it
a major plank in his campaign for the gover
norship.
Actually, the right-to-work law is the baate
reform, and all other laws, existing or pro-
powsd. are t* it. It fc iwhnhnNi in

As long as the child breathes the poisomed air;
of nationalism > patriotism I. education in
world nundedm-ss can produce only rather
precanous results As we have pointed out, it j ■
is.frequently the family that infects the child: FRI. & SAT
with extreme nationalism. The school should
therefore use the means described earlier to
combat family attitudes that favor jingoism
(war mongenng) . . We shall presently rec
ognize in nationalism the major obstacle to
the development of world-mindedness ...”

C linton, s. c.
The publication goes on further to say:
“Nations that become members of UNESCO
accordingly assume an obligation to revise
textbooks used in their shcools . . . each mem
ber nation, if it is to carry out the obligations
of its members, has a duty to see to it that
nothing in its curriculum, course of study, and
textbooks, is contrary to UNESCO’S aims.”
No wonder the American Legion at its last two
national conventions has vigorously condemned this
attempt to destroy the patriotism and the influence
of the homes in the lives of American youth. Pa
triotism is something to be chersihed and nurtured in
any nation, and especially in the United States of
America.
Why should any world agency decide what and
how oqr American children should be taught? Why
should they rewrite our histories to suit themselves?
It is a gander on American homes to say that
“family attitudes favor jingoism (war moogering),”
although it is understood that this is exactly what
UNESCO it teaching about American homes in some
of the countries behind the Iron Curtain. No imb
tuUoe has cootributed more to our way of life than
the dadkatod. Christian, patriotic American home
