FRIDAY, JANUARY 6, 1956
Silver-Lined Justice
Behind every cloud, even an overstuffed bag of wind, is
a silver lining.
A federal judge ruled yesterday that the now deflated
Sen. Joseph McCarthy (R-Wis.) acted outside the jurisdiction
of his committee two years ago in a one-man probe of sub
version in defense plants.
The case was concerned with a charge of contempt of
Congresg by a former research assistant at Harvard Univer
sity. The judge’s ruling resulted in acquittal.
Which only goes to show, let us sincerely hope, that
justice, given enough time, will win over demagoguery.
This brings us to the point we had in mind. How long
does justice need to triumph in the reactionary Southern
stronghold of hatred and fear?
If the Supreme Court of our country is to be our inter
preter of justice, allowing for imperfections of human na
ture and reason, how long will this justice take before it
realizes that a narrow-minded band of outlaws (for they
are in revolt against the Constitution) are not going to go
along.
These Southern States, led as of old by South Carolina,
are in revolt—not only against the supreme law of our land
as interpreted by our highest court, but also against any
principles of humanity and equality among men.
But, inevitably, there is the silver lining behind the
black clouds of hatred.

Governor Allen Shivers presents the 1956 Arbor Day proclamation
to Dr. A. D. Folweller, director of the Texas Forest Service. Gov
ernor Shivers proclaimed January 20 as Arbor Day since the con
tinued progress of the State of Texas is in a large measure related
to the forest wealth.

At Conference
Nine students from A&M
have returned from the Ecum
enical Student Conference on
the Christian World Mission,
held Dec. 27 through Jan. 1
on the University of Ohio campus.
Also attending were Bob Monk, Di
rector of the Wesley Foundation,
and J. Gordon Gay, general secre
tary of the YMCA.
The conference was attended by
3,500 student delegates from 400
colleges and universities in North
America.
Rev. Monk said the conference
was considered to be the most im
portant of its kind in the history
of the Student Christian Movement
The reason for this, he said, was
the large number of international
students who attended as full dele
gates. The conference included
1,275 students from 80 countries
around the world.
Included in discussions were the
issues, of the new relationship of
missionaries to the younger chur
ches around the world, the prob
lems of colonialism, racism, under
developed areas, new conflicts be
tween Christianity and the non-
Christian religion, and the rela
tionship of the Christian faith to
areas of rapid social change.
Students attending from A&M
were Max Casalta, Konrad Losen,
Steward Coffman, Robert Coff
man, Steve Love, Harry Scott, Joe
Blair, Bill Riveire and Kilho Park.
