For The Dollar?
For some decades the American
dollar has provided the broad
shoulders of Atlas” upon which
much of the world’s trade has
rested. Now, for a variety of rea¬
sons Washington believes that this!
load should be placed in part on
other shoulders as well.
In the hope of bringing about
substantial improvements” in thei
world’s monetary system, Washing-! money!
ton mow proposes a world
system conference. This would bef
a step of highest importance to
the world’s financial and economic f
life, and might indeed result in t W
new and revolutionary procedures.
The most startling suggestion
which might come before such a
conference would be the creation
of a mew, supplemental internation¬
al currency. There would be a
currency reserve unit (CRU for
short) made iup of perhaps the
dozen leading world currencies.
CRU could then be used to settle
accounts between and among na¬
tions.
In proposing this conference,
Secretary of the Treasury Henry
H. Fowler stresses the need for
greater international liquidity (a
vailability) of funds in order to
maintain world - wide economic
growth. The recent dollar drain
crisis has threatened to slow down
such growth by limiting the amount
of dollars pouring from the United
States into other lands.
It is clear that the United States
has no wish to weaken the dol¬
lar’s role in the world economy.
But Washington believes that the
time has come when the dollar
needs greater help. For it has
become increasingly apparent that
there are disadvantages in having
the dollar perform its two great
roles. The first of these is to
meet the monetary needs of the
United States itself. The second
is to serve as a worldwide medi¬
um of exchange. Increasingly of
late these two roles have come into
conflict with injury to one or the
other.
An additional advantage from
4he establishment of a special
international currency would be
to give other nations at least the
impression of being less depen¬
dent iupon the dollar. This could
be a psychological gain which
would remove some of the re¬
sentment sometimes felt against
America because of its tremen¬
dous financial power and influ
ence. — Editorial in The

Civil Rights?
«v Fred jack son
What Is It?
Is It For The Negro Only?
When and Where Will It End?
We would like to talk about
CIVIL RIGHTS for a while. But
we would like to talk about it in
the light of God’s word and His |
plan for ushering in His kingdom.
We know that for many years
that we had had the problem of
supply and demand. A hundred
years ago there was not anything
like the demand for education that
there is today, and there was not
so much need for it as there is
today, and neither was the supply
and the facilities of education as
plentiful as they are today. One
huwdred years ago many men
grew rich who could not write
their names, and this was also
true 50 years ago. But today it
is much different, and we would
like to quote the Prophet Daniel
where he said in the 12 chapter
and 4th verse, that in the last
days, people would run to and
fro, and knowledge would be in¬
creased. Knowledge has increased
to a great extent, but has it in¬
creased in the light of education?
Or his it the knowledge of the
world and the things of the world?
Has the standard of education
went up in the classrooms of our
schools and colleges? Or has the
standard been lowered? The high
school graduate of today could
not pass the 8th grade test of 50
years ago. And the same is true
of the college graduate. But they
have to get them out some way in
order to make room for more.
And therefore, they are “shoved
through”, and the youth of today
realize this fact to a great ex¬
tent. They have to put up a bul¬
wark of some sort to try and
prove that they are just as smart
as the next one. And it has come
the point with the youth of
that, in an unspoken way,
say to each other, “You

WASHINGTON, Aug 6 (AP>
Sen. Storm Thurmond, R-S.C., said
Friday President Johnson should
have had Negro leader Martin Lu¬
ther King cosign the voting rights
bill or else have signed it as King’s
agent.
In a statement, Thurmond said
he wanted to be “recorded as be¬
ing absent when the President and
his friend Martin Luther King join
in celebrating another step in
disintegrating the United States
Constitution.”
There have been many pieces
of unconstitutional legislation pas¬
sed by the Congress in recent
years, but this bill, the so-called
voting rights bill of 1965, is prob¬
ably the most unconstitutional
piece of legislation approved by
the Congress since Reconstruction
days,” Thurmond said.
my back, and I’ll scratch yours. n
Or, “You agree with me, and I’ll
agree with you.” So therein, it
matters not how one of them dres¬
ses, or what kind of speech they
have, anything goes, no matter
how silly it might look to the
older person. All the young ones
must put. the stamp of approval
upon it.
There is a saying that electricity
will follow the path of least re¬
sistance. So let us take a look at
the dances of 50 years ago, and
let us ask the question: how many
of the youth today could go into
a ballroom and dance the dances
where it took a lot of study and
learning to do the right thing at
the right time? And if one went
out there and made a few bobbles,
they would be laughed off the
dance floor? But not today. They
don’t have to use their brains.
Or be taught how to dance. They
just go out on the floor and any¬
thing goes. The more silly, the
better. They are by the dance as
they are by the songs and music.
How many of the youth of today
can pick up a sheet of music and
read one single note of it? And
there are thousands of them thum¬
ping guitars and adlibing as they
go from one noise to another.
There is no melody in the songs,
or what they call music.
I look back to the days of 1952-3
and so on, and I remember that
when a person went into a cafe
or drug store, or most any place
where there was a juke-box, one
could always hear a good hill¬
billy, western or religious song.
But the record changers would
slip on one of the jungle type
once in a while, with no melody
whatsoever to it, but just the old
jungle-type beat and a lot of noise.
I also noticed that the school kids
would most all go for that one
record, and the owner of the places
must have noticed it also, for it
was not many years until all the
religious songs were off, and now
about all there is on the juke-boxes
the nation over is the junk which
they call music. And what about
our radio stations? They pollute
the air with this stuff. You name
it. 1-4.
