‘God Forgotten'
Says Solon Asks
Day Of Prayer
WA*SHINGTON (NC) The
United States has forgotten the sus
taining hand of God. declares a
resolution introduced in Congress
by Representative Louise C. Rab
aut of Michigan. The resolution
would call upon the President to
proclaim a National Day of Pray
er and Reparation, and would urge
all Americans to participate.
Making the words of Lincoln’s
second inaugural address its own,
the resolution says “we have, as a
Nation, ‘forgotten the Gracious
Hand That preserved us in peace,
and multiplied and enriched and
strengthened us: and we have vain
ly imagined, in the deceitfulness of
our hearts, all that these blessings
were produced by some superior
virtue and wisdom of our own’.”
Still quoting, the resolution adds
that "we should, as a Nation,
‘humble ourselves before the Of
fended Power, to confess our Na
tional sins, and to pray for clem
ency and forgiveness'.”
University officials must realize
they are without the proper facili
ties to weed out teachers who are
Communist Party members. It is
not a question of breaching the
freedom of the institutions when
government committees are forc
ed to investigate communism in
colleges and universities. They
represent the agency best able to
do the job. Should communism
take over, there would be no free
dom. University officials should
be made to realize this.
Those are the firm convictions
of Dr. Bella V. Dodd, former high
Communist Party official who ap
peared in Columbus last week as
the first witness in an Un-Amer
ican activities Committee hearing.
Dr. Dodd was subpoenaed by Har
old Velde, chairman of the com
mittee. to testify and furnish back
ground on communist party activ
ity in professional fields, especial
ly the teaching profession. She
had formerly been a teacher at a
New York City College.
In an exclusive Timas interview
following her appearance before
the committee. Dr. Dodd empha
sized the danger of party members
on universtiy faculties. "They not
only are hurting the young people
in their classrooms," she stressed,
"but they are undermining the
country because of the prestige
they hold due to their position on
a faculty."
