Down to Earth in Space

There is nothing out of this world about
the task facing Dr. George E. Mueller,
who has been chosen to succeed D. Brain-
erd Holmes as head of the National Aero-
nautics and Space Administration’s
manned space program. His first assign-
ment should be a realistic, down-to-earth
re-examination of the cost and potential
value of the flight to the moon, Beyond
that, there is need for a thorough review
of all the activities and outlays carried
on by NASA.

This would not be necessary if Con-
gress had been exercising ordinary super-
vision over our space efforts. But, goaded
by Mr. Kennedy’s determination to beat
the Soviet Union in the race to the moon,
Congress has permitted NASA to lead a
charmed life, providing what amounted
almost to a blank check for its operations
and a free hand to its managers. NASA,
it seemed, could do no wrong.

Congress is now rectifying its mistake.
As a result of its belated probing, it has
cut NASA’s mushrooming budget. The
reduction includes shelving of plans for a
$50 million research center that NASA
had sought for the President's home state,

NASA still has to exert a greater degree
of self-discipline. Its important achieve-
ments have oceasionally been marred by
sloppy practices, including a wavering
ethical attitude to the commercialization
of the astronauts. Despite Mr. Kennedy’s
position on the moon race, the wisdom
of the current “crash program” to that

end — with its accompanying massive
diversion of human and economic re-
sources — is highly questionable.

There is no doubt that false starts and
dead ends are inevitable in exploring the
unknown frontiers of space. But NASA's
_effectiveness will be enhanced by tighter
controls over spending and greater co-
ordination of its activities, including a
yaore sober evaluation than we have: yet
had from it of the entire moon shot
program. The space agency needs a solid
foundation on earth.

_and in Science

The vastness of the Government's re-
search activities has prompted a demand
by members of the House Rules Com-
mittee for a broad inquiry into the char-
acter, eost and conduct! of federally
financed nroerams in everv vese rch: field,

fiscal and economic reforms.

The Congo has made progress and it is
still making progress; certainly there is
no promising alternative to the Adoula
Government. But the country faces disas-
ter unless that Government curbs the in-
tolerable budget deficit, stops printing

Premier Adoula is fully aware of the need
for reforms.

The United Nations cannot undertake to
cope with new Congos. Neither can the
African states, whose efforts to force a
premature independence on the unready
Portuguese colonies are endangering the
United Nations itself.

Atlanta’s Mayor Speaks

On rare occasions the oratorical fog on
Capitol Hill is pierced by a voice resonant
with courage and dignity. Such a voice
was heard when Mayor Ivan Allen Jr. of
Atlanta testified before the Senate Com-
merece Committee in support of President
Kennedy's bill to prohibit racial discrimin-
ation in stores, restaurants and other pub-
lic accommodations.

On the basis of the very substantial ac-
complishments that his city of a half-

-million, the largest in the Southeast,

has made in desegregating publicly owned
and privately owned facilities, he might
have come as a champion of “states’
rights” and of the ability of localities
to banish discrimination without Federal
law. Certainly, he would have had much
more warrant to espouse that view than
the Barretts, the Wallaces and the other
arch-segregationists who raise the specter
of Federal “usurpation” as a device for
keeping Southern Negroes in subjection,

But Mr. Allen was not in Washington to
boast. He was there to warn that even in
cities like Atlanta the progress that had
been made might be wiped out if Congress
turned its back on the Kennedy proposal
and thus gave implied endorsement to the
concept that private businesses were free
to finish the job started with the Emanci-
pation Proclamation a centry ago: “Now
the elimination of segregation, which is
slavery’s stepchild, is a challenge to all
of us to make every American free in
fact as well as in theory—and again to
establish our nation as the true champion
of the free world.”

                    <text>Atlanta'.s Mayor Speaks
On rare occas~cns the oratorical fog on
Capitol Hill is pierced by a voice resonant with
. courage and dignity. Such a voice was heard
when Mayor Ivan Allen Jr. of Atlanta testified
before the Senate Commerce Committee in support of President Kennedy's bill to prohibit
racial discrimination in stores, restaurants and
other public accommodations.
On the basis of the very substantial accomplishments that his city of a half-million, the
largest in the Southeast, has made in desegregating publicly owned and privately owned facilities, he might have come as a champion of
"states' rights" and of the ability of localities
to banish discrimination without Federal law.
Certainly, he would have had much more warrant to espouse that view than the Barretts, the
Wallaces and the other arch-segregationists
who raise the specter of Federal "usurpation"
as a device for keeping Southern Negroes in
subjection.
But Mr. Allen was not in Washington to boast.
He was there to warn that even in cities like
Atlanta the progress that had been made might
be wiped out if Congress turned its back on the
Kennedy proposal and thus gave implied endorsement to the concept that private businesses
were free to discriminate. He left behind this
charge to finish the job started with the Emancipation Proclamation a century ago : "Now the
elimination of segregation, which is slavery's
stepchild, is a challenge to all of us to make
every American free in fact as well as in theory
- and again to establish· our na tion as the true
TIAJ/35
champion of the free lJ~rJ1{,

Dear Mayor Allen:
,
Fred and I want you to know how
proud we are of our Mayor. Your fine speech was
not an easy one to make but in the light of world
events today( as well as local events) it was necessary, we believe.
As one travels about the country outside our area - one soon sees it is largely the
South which refuses to accept the inevitable.
It is reassuring to have a Mayor who
is a statesman.
Sincerely,
~ /~

BACKS RIGHTS BILL
AS HELP TO CITIES
Calls Public Facility Clause
Key to Averting StrifeSenator Praises Views
E xcerpts from Mayor Allen's
testtmony are on Page 7.
By E. W. KENWORTHY
Special to The New York Timts
WASHINGTON, July 26['he Mayor of Atlanta appealed to Congress today to
pass legislation to eliminate
egregation, "slavery's stepchild."
"We cannot dodge the issue,"
Mayor Ivan Allen Jr. told the
Senate Commerce Committee."'
"We cannot look back over ou t
houJders or turn the clock bac t
o the 1860's. We must take
iction now to assure a greater
future for our citizens and our
country."
In the last several years Atanta has desegregated city
parks and golf courses, public ·
schools, lunch counters, princi- i
pal restaurants and its leading 1
hotels for tqe holding of conventions.
Mr. Allen, who was elect ed
Mayor in 1961, took pride in
the progress nonetheless. He
said, "It has been a long ex- 1
hausttng and oft en disco~rag- '.
ing process and the end is far '
· from being in sight."
·
Asks Passage of Bill
What Atlanta has accomplished, Mr. Allen said, has
been done partly by voluntary \
action and partly as a result
of court orders. But the task
of dealing with discrimination
in public accommodations would
have ·been easier ltf there had
been a national law to guide
local officials and businessmen, 1
e said.
&lt;
He does not believe, he said, t
, hat any
en
w:trrb--.t.}J.e
ederal Government to · strict
unnecessarily the rights of
private business.
However, h,e added, I am
firmly convinced that the 'Supreme Colll't insists that the
sam~ fundamental rrghts must
be held by every American citizen."
Therefore, any failure by Congress to pass the bill "woul
amount to an endorsement o
private business setting up a
entirely new status of discrimi- nation throughout the nation,'
he declared.

"Cities like Atla nta might slip
backwa rds." He warned. "Hotels
nd restaurants that ha ve already taken this issue upon
themselves and opened their ,
doors might find it convenient ,
to go back to the old status." 1
The result might well be "the
old turmoil of riots, strife, 1
demonstrations and picketing," ,
Mr. Allen asserted, continuing:
"Gehtlemen, if I had your 1I.
problem, armed with the local
experience I have had, I would b
pass a public accommodation f.
bill."

BACKS CIVIL RIGHTS PROVISION: Mayor Ivan Allen
Jr. of Atlanta urges passage of prohibition of segregation
in privately owned public accommodations during his
app_earance before t'1e Sena te Cw ·--;-;· :i Co-- 1ri '. J~~0
�SATURDAY, JULY 27, l
ATLANTA'S MAYOR
BACKS RIGHTS BIL
Continued From Page 1, Ool. 5
turned away at the restaurant
on the ground that the proprietor had a legal right to
cha.nge the Negro's citizenshiJ1
l!,S a matter of convenience.
"I submit that it is not right
to allow an American's citizenship to be changed merely
as a matter of convenience," he
said.
The Mayor suggested, however, tha t Congress should
arnen,d the Administration bill
to allow "a reasonable time" fo r
communities to abolish discrimination before Federal inter vention. He also thought that smaller cities should have a longen
ime than larger, since metropolitan a reas found it easie1
to adapt t hemselves to social
change.
Senator J ohn P. Pastore,
Democrat of Rhode Island, who
was In the chair, told Mr. Allen
at the concludion of his state.;
ment that it was more difficult
for him to have said the things
he did than it would have been \
for
some
officials
from
Northern cities.
"I am humbled In your presence," Mr. Pastore said.
Thurmond Poses Queries
Thereupon, Senator Strom
Thurmond, Democrat of Sou
Carolina, began a series of ques
tions similar to those he had
addressed to Gov .Ross R. Barnett of Mississippi and , Gov
George C. Wallace of Alabama
Would It not be better, Mr
Thurmond asked, to rely on voluntary action, or at least loca
ordinance?
"Senator," Mr. Allen retortJ
'I'd like to see definition on
national level. Congress shout
say what it thinks should b
done under the Supreme Cour
decision. We have been left u
in the air."
Wasn't it true that tbJs w

mond asked.
"It would compel the same
rights be given to Negro citizens as to white citizens. Yes,
that's compulsion. Any federal
Jaw exercises some compulsion,"
the Mayor replied. He then
went on:
"We have reached a situation
that has been brought tnto being by the Supreme Court. We
look on the Supreme Court wit~
a schoolboy's reverence. This is
your court, our court."
Mr. Thurmond then aske
whether the proposed law would
not destroy business in Georgia.
"I don't see any business destroyed," Mr. Allen answered.
"I am asking Congress, as
local official, to give me a def
inltlon."
Senator Is Challenged
At this point Mr. Pastore anI grily protested Mr. Thurmond'•
questions, which, he sa id, wer
I "unfair. He said that if th
South
Carolinian
continuec
these "when-did-you-stop-beating-your-wife questions," h
would rule them out of ordei:
Mr. Thurmond said that th
chairman was trying to ."gagl
members. "If we can't cross
examine witnesses to find ou
how this would work, we hav
reached a dangerous stage," h
said.
Mr. Pastore retorted that M~


I'hurmond was asking "loadeo


uestions to catch the . head·
lines.
' :As long as I am chairman,'
he shouted, "I will see that al
witnesses are treated with dig
ni ty and decorum a.nd not embarrassed beyond the limits· o
fairness."
The audience rok!i: into applause, Mr. Thurmon&lt;l asked
the chairman why he did not '
stop it.
"I can't stop it after it happened," Mr. Pastore said with
a grin.
Mr. Thurmond has contended
that the integr ation movement
Is "Communist-controlled."
Senator Philip A. Hart,
Democrat of Michigan, asked
~he Mayor if his city's desegregation moves were "Communist-inspired.' '
"There are no more Communists in Atlanta than there are
on the moon, Mr. Allen said.
South Ca.rollnlan H~rd
Later Gov. Donald Russell of
South Carolina opposed the bill
as unconstitutional. Taking the
opposite line from Mr. Allen, ,
the Governor argued that prog- ,
ress .could be made only by ,
\ voluntary local action and that
a Federal Jaw "will. breed re
sistance and perhaps violence.
Testifying before a Senate
Labor and Public Welfare subcommittee on fair employment
practices legislation, Roy Wilkins, executive secretary of the
National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People,
said it was as difficult for a
Negro to get into the plumbers'
union as into the Chase Manhat•
tan Bank.
He praised ~orge Meany,
president of the labor federation, for bringing pressure to
bear on unions that practice
discrimination. This, be said,
was having "some effect, but t
· us
the
movement
seems
, glacial.
