B«nson fSdgSfil) PRESIDENT —NATIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM SMrcy, AtUmm MASS LAWLESSNESS ENDANGERS NATION Many influential thought- leaders have contended that there has never been an in ternal Communist danger in America. The spread of the destructive and alarming Ne gro riots in Chicago, Cleveland, Brooklyn and other northern cities may have changed the minds of many previously ill- informed citizens throughout the nation, but the same voices that always have deplored “anti-Communism” now are attributing the shattering and expanding racial violence to nearly every other cause ex cept Red agitation. These opinion-moulders saw nothing sinister in the recurr ing pattern established earlier in Harlem and Watts, where the announced target of the rotern where the mobs “got out of hand” and went on shioting, burning, pilaging, plundering sprees of utter law lessness and wanton destruc tion. But Mayor Richard Daley of Chicago and Cleveland auth orities were obliged to K point out the obvious—that the riot ing violence has a distinct “pattern.” “The staffs” of some of the Negro organiza- Ominous Pattern To anyone who has studied the Communist movement in America, this summer’s riot ing, with its potential nation wide explosiveness, is not at all surprising. Whatever actual physical • part Communist ag ents may or may not have had in the. Negro riots in Watts, Harlem, U Cleveland, Chicago and o thery A nfrftidn n cities, the uprisings *and their burning madness are of a pattern with Communist intrigue, strategy, and plotting. It will be recalled by most Americans that Malcolm X, who was murdered in New York, originally was an advo cate of “ BlacU PQwer” and planned-violence against the White race. Then, several months before he was shot to death, he "appeared to have changed coyX&e and was openly working dn coHfcboration with less militant Kegro leaders.

The editorial headline: SENATOR STRO HURMOND l - 1 f- : t» Reports PEOPLE THE MOST CRITICAL do mestic issue facing the nation today is inflation. Although it is classed as a domestic issue, the problem of inflation has a direct bearing upon our stature as the bulwark of freedom in A WELCOMED WAR pr ovemcnt^ fyas risen to a 32- year high, Additionally, just within the last week several In the anotnatogs^ situation of having ,to patf more to borrow money when the demand for money and goods Is greatest and the value af .virwney the least. Under ' normal condi tions, higher Interest rates would mean'-a curtailment in the supply . of money with a resulting beneflcitf ^effect upon the inflationary ^pAral. How ever, this has not occurred, and the American people, w ho are forced to carry Hie burden of both Inflation ^ and high interest rates, are entitled to ask. why? THE . CHIRF CULPRIT is the government's fiscal, or money ^pending, policies. Total t in the ounts trillion, docs admit- infiationary nearly spend- backed major banks have ^raised their prime interestT^tes to a whop ping 6 percent, and there is every indicatin' that other the world. Therefore, inflation | banks will follow suit in the United States is, in a THUS,. WH^ARE CAUGHT very real sense, a problem of international magnitude to the community of free nations of the world, affecting, as it does, our ability to pick up the gauntlet of freedom wherever it may be thrown down. THE CLASSIC DEFINITION of inflation Is a disproportion ate, sharp and sudden increase in the quantity of money or credit, or both, relative to the goods and services available for purchase. This condition un questionably exists today, but the definition only partially tells the story of the stresses now on the economy because it was framed during a time of less government involvement and control over the economy. The inflation now being experi enced in our country has an even more widespread effect upon the economy and upon the average individual than is gen erally realized. THE COST OF GOODS and services Is constantly Increas ing, resulting In an equally constant decline In the value, or real purchasing power, of the dollar. Although everyone feels the pinch, those who have the most to lose ind who are hurt the most^hy Inflation are those living o» flared Incomes, such as rettries tmder Social Security and ether annuitants, whose skills are not now hi the market plaoe. ANOTHER COMPLICATING factor existing today is that while the value of the dollar is constantly on the decline as a result of inflation, the cost of the dollar, or interest rates. Is increasing sharply. Recently the government announced that It will pay on long-term bonds, the highest rate offered in 45 years, or since 1921. Not even during the great depres sion did Interest rates paid on U.S. Government securities soar so high. Other government obligations, which do not carry the Full Faith and Credit of the U.S., such as sales partici pation certificate*; carry an even higher rate of Interest. A LEADING FINANCIAL journal recently reported that Interest rates <pn municipal bonds, the main source of fi nancing for major capital im- nrm “The Blood of Malcolm X Will Not Have Been Shed in Vain.” The editorial says: “American Negroes will un doubtedly realize from his murder that in dealing with the imperialist aggressors, vio lence must be met with vio lence as Malcolm himself taught ... At the back of the murderer is the sinister force upholding the reactionary im perialist rule and racial op pression. By assassinating Mal colm X, it incurred a new blood debt . . . (Malcolm X) called upon the American Negroes to fight fearlessly for their rights ‘by meeting violence, an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.' This incendiary state ment of his reveals a truth: To achieve freedom and equal ity, the American Negro must on no account rely on the be nevolence of the ruling class, but should wage a resolute fight. “Malcomn X’s murder the Communist newspaper contin ues) shows that the U._ S. ruling class and racists today are in mortal fear of the awak ening of the American Negro. Hard facts have made the Ne gro see more clearly that the ‘Civil Rights Act’ is no gospel of emancipation but an inden ture to keep them forever un der the yoke of the racists. Holding aloft .their .militant banner, they have continued to march onwards.” Sober-minded patriotic Amer ican Negroes—and most of our Negro citizens are in this cat egory—reject the “Black Pow er” call of Malcolm X and those who are today echoing its incitement to revolution. They reject Communism, and many of them are aware of the Red’s plan to conquer the world. Citizen leaders among our Negro population are now challenged to join together and replace on the national scene the “Black Power” agitators and those teaching violence un der any guise, the people who are conducting “training schools for violence” and the actual Communists and Com munist-dupes who are attempt ing to incite to violence the entire race. Our national and state leaders must meantime be strengthened in a determina tion to prevent and control (and assess hard penalties up on) the expanding mass law lessness. The lives and proper ty—and freedom—of all citi zens are at stake. NOTICE OF SPECIAL ELECTION State of South Carolina, County of Newberry.

Football Heat Deaths Preventable, Says AMA CHICAGO—Heat deaths among high school and college football players could be a thing of the past if coaches and players follow recom mendations made at a meeting here recently. When football practice opens in a few weeks, the first hot days could be dangerous for players un less precautions to avoid heat ill- ' ness are taken now, a panel of medical and sports authorities * agreed.’ Heat illness last year caused the deaths of one college football player and fbur, possibly five, high school “pteyers. It contributed to “close calls” and injuries of many more. The five-man panel, appearing at a meeting sponsored by the American Medical Association’s Committee on the Medical Aspects of Sports, agreed that: n 1. Prospective football players should get out of air-conditioned surroundings now and start getting accustomed to vigorous exercise in hot weather. 2. Coaches should abandon the old practice of withholding water from athletes during practice. Fail ure to replenish water and salt lost through perspiration increases the chances for heat exhaustion or heat stroke. r . , .. 3. Athletes should be acclimated . to hot weather by carefully grad uated practice schedules. At least the first five days of practice should be devoted to non-contact workouts. 4. Both coaches and players should be alert for signs of heat ill ness, such as lethargy, stupor, awk wardness, or unusual fatigue. University of Kentucky football coach Charles Bradshaw said his squad’s practice sessions were im proved by regular breaks for water and rest. Overworking players in hot weather only decreases their efficiency, he said. Said Purdue University’s team physician, L. W. Combs, M.D.: “Coaches used to think that if a player lost a lot of weight on the first day or, so of practice, it was a good workout. Actually, all the player lost was body liquid—which is dangerous.” Allan J. Ryan, M.D., team physi cian at the University of Wisconsin, agreed with Dr. Combs. “Any player who loses more than three per cent of his body weight in a practice session is not getting enough salt and water,” he said. Excessive salt and water loss can result in heat stroke, an extremely dangerous condition. Dr. Ryan pointed out. Anyone can suffer heat stroke if he is active in hot weather and neglects to replace salt and water lost by perspiration. The re sult is a breakdown in the sweating mechanism and collapse. If prompt measures aren’t taken to get the heat stroke victim cooled immediately, the result can be death —sometimes within 13 minutes. Approximately 830,000 boys in 14,300 U.S. high schools now play football, said Clifford B. Fagan, ex ecutive secretary of the National Federation of State High School Athletic Associations. “The few deaths that occur in football can probably never be com pletely eliminated,** Fagan said. “but we can eliminate deaths due to heat illness—they are preventable.** Coaches can avoid trouble by keeping a close watch on their players for the first signs of heat illness, said William E. Newell, ath letic trainer at Purdue University and executive secretary of the National Athletic Tr*Mers Association. 1 Parents can help protect their athlete-sons by watching for signs of fatigue and emotional strain, such as loss of appetite and poor sleep habits, Newell said. Fred Hein, Ph.D., director of the AMA Department of Health Edu cation and secretary of the AMA’s Committee on the Medical Aspects of Sports, was panel moderator. Dr. Ryan is a member of the AMA Committee on Exercise and Phys ical Fitness, and is a past president of the American College of Sports Medicine.
