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.
