Although an opponent in her sec

Mrs. Gibson felt very confident
that she would win it with flying
colors. During the interim, she
spoke freely to reporters, giving
special praise to Freddie Johnson,
her coach, Mrs. Rota A. Smith and
Buddy Walker, who started her
on her career.

Sen. Glenn Taylor
Guilty In Alabama

MONTGOMERY, ALA. - (AT-
LAS)-For entering through a
church door marked Colored, in
Birmingham in July 1913, Senator
Glenn Taylor, Democrat of Idaho
was fined $50 and sentenced to 1870
days in Jail.
Senator appealed to the Alabama
Supreme Court, and this week, the
court in unanimous decision re-
fused to review the decision of the
Alabama Court of Appeals. The
trial court and later the Court Of
Appeals held that the Senator was
convicted of disorderly conduct af-
ter resisting police, and that racial
segregation was not involved.
Senator Taylor was Vice Presi-
dent on Henry Wallace's Progress
sive party ticket, when mass
meeting was scheduled at Negro
Baptist Church. The Senator, at
tempted to enter through the door
for Negroes and was stopped by
the police on the basis that his en-
trance violated the city ordinance
Of Birmingham.
A spokesman for the Progressive
Party in New York says Mr.. Taylor
will appeal to the United State:

Doctor RusseIl's
Race Greed
(From the Atlanta Daily World

We like that splendid and de-
serving tribute Mrs. M. K. lilly
paid to the late DR.. r. l.. Russell in
the January-February issue of The
New South, bulletin devoted to a
summary of race relations progress
in our Southland, and published by
/ The Southern Regional Council.
Mrs. lilly is an Albanian, an ac-
tive and leading member of the
North Georgia Conference in the
Methodist Church and a member
of the Presidents Commission on
Civil Rights.
Mrs. lilly said Of DR.. Russell:
HE was a man of such integrity
and force that the church, state and
county boards of education, county
commissioners, and courts listened
to him.
while most of his life was spent
in great way as a minister in
the Methodist Church, this church,
which knew him and appreciated
his services, knew and felt he rem
dered even a greater service in his
work as builder of racial under
standing in our state -. :"
And in her confusion, Mrs.
lilly said of DR.. Russell:
His life and his Race Greed
are a legacy and a challenge to
all Georgians." The Atlanta Daily
World reprints that creed in trib-
ute to DR.. Russell and in the hope
that it will inspire others to live
by the high command this Chris
tan concept imposes upon all of
us in race relations:
l. | believe in the right of all
human beings to be free.
2. | will treat all peoples as my
brothers.
3. | will keep myself free from
/ prejudice views of any and all hu-
man beings of whatsoever race,
creed or color.
4. will promote human good
will and understanding.
). | will lend aid and comfort to
agencies working in this field.
6. | will talk good will upon all
appropriate occasions.
z. | will not allow any person
regardless Of race or color to. outdt
me in kindness, courtesy, and the
fundamental elements of brother
hood.
8. | believe in the integrity of the
individual; that he come first.
9. | believe that all men are
potentially the sons of God anc
therefore all are brothers to all.
10. | will not support any mar
for office in my state who proposes
to bar any person because of Greco
or color from adj the privileges anc
rights accorded the citizens of m,
state.

ON THE FARM \
An Early Start
May Increase
Baby Chick Profits

The poultryman who gets an
early spring start with his baby
chicks can expect earlier production
and possibly greater profits in the
fall when egg prices are increased
by a demand the supply cannot al
ways fill.
The earlier spring start IS econom-
icaily sound, it has been proved at
the Purina Research Farm, since
the slight additional cost to heat
the brooder house Is often offset by
the lower price the poultryman
pays for his chicks when he orders
and accepts delivery before the nor
NAL seasonal rush.
This earlier spring start makes it
possible for the pullets to take ad-
vantage of green feed outside and
prepare themselves to lay in August,
September and October when egg
production normally slumps and
prices go up.
Dollar-wise, the slight extra cost
Of starting baby chicks early can
easily be liquidated in the fall when
that chick is in production, usually
when eggs are selling for to 10
cents more per dozen.

GEORGE DIXON REPORTS

During the past week, most Alaskans have beer watching the news for the latest developments II the United States Senate currently debating the isssue of statehood for Alaska.
 Even Alaskans who are not especially interested n statehood have been following the reports from the nations capital the status of the proposed state hood legislation Barring news from Korea, news from the Senate has been the biggest news in the Alaska papers.
 George Dixon, eminent writer for King Features Syndicate and author of the famous Washington Scene column, had this to say in his copyright column appearing in last Fridays Seattle PosIntellgencer:
 Any insurance salesman brush peddler, or actor who has spent long hours cooling his heels in an antoroom while bitterness mounted in his soul would have a fellow feeling these days for Gov. Ernest Gruenng of Alaska.

 | It really is a pathetic sight. Capitol corridors are bustling with activity and excitement. Couriers are coming and going. Senators importantly holding corridor press conferences almost any other subject you could Everybody is comforting with somebody Everybody but Governor Gruening
 Everybody ignores him = with the exception of Delegate Joseph R. Harrington of Hawaii who is in the same boat If they didn't have each other to talk to, they'd probably forget how to talk.
 It isn't tough Delegate Harrington because he has a home here in Washington. He retire to the bottom of his family at night and unbosom himself But Governor Gruening has whom he can unburden himself except the night doorman at the Cosmos Club where he is putting up.
 Alaska's chief executive flew down here last week to be Johnny the-spot for the reopening of Con- gress. High hopes for action Alaskan statehood beat in his heart But he presented himself it the portals of the Senate he was told to take seat and wait.
 He waited. He waited all week. When last seen ne was still waiting But like the poor book pedder who craves only minute of the big mans time to ell him of the wonderful bargain going a-begging getting no nearer to a hearing.

 He declared he would continue to sit long le thought there the slightest chance of ion on statehood
 The thing that baffles Governor Gruening is why Alaskan statehood is being given the stand-off Who le asks anyone who will listen, is against it?
 Everybody to be for it." he sighs hag yardly Not a sensible argument is being advanced against it. Yet here am-sittng around like a bum ln a park bench-being given the brushoff by every body"
 Governor Gruening said he prepared to meet any and all arguments against statehood.
 They can't advance the argument that we don't nave enough population he said we have 132O00 That is more than most States had when they were admitted to the Union. California, the second most populous State, had 10000 when it in.
 They can't argue we're too isolated came down from Juneau in 2ols hours. Not so long ago it took that long to go to Chicago"

Iatinos very sour indeed. Because Latin American coffee growers, like the farmer of Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska, had suffered extremely lean years prior to the war And the chief reason for increased cof- fee prices was identical with the reason for the increased price of American meat, corn, wheat and cotton-namely, that the world is consuming more.
 Anyway, the State Department, aghast at the harm done our good neighbor policy by the Gillette coffee probe, placed all the facts before the Senate committee. Forth right Assist. Secretary Ed. Miller warned that Gillette was playing into Communist hands, while far sighted Senator Clinton Anderson of New Mexico did his best to put the quietus on his colleague from Iowa.

 FOR DOROTHY PROJECT

"The Bureau of Reclamation is considering the advisability of seek ing authorization the $16,000000 Lake Dorothy power project" Jo- seph Morgan, chief fof the Investi- gations Division, Bureau of Re- clamation said today'
 A preliminary report has already been made and can be brought up to date with little additional work, he said Although author i2ation could be granted by the Congress it is likely that construc- tion would be held until such time as there was evidence of a market for the power. Present plans calf for 30,000 kw with two submarine cables across Taku Inlet each to carry 69,0O0 volts. From Point Bish- op to a subStation near Juneau, the power lines would be on trans mission towers.
 Authorization will be sought from the new Congress for the construc- tion of the Swan Lake project near Ketchikan, Morgan revealed. This will be a ten million dollar project with 13,500 kw capacity. he said.

British Labor Rebels

Ey accident, it happened that the Truman A-bomb statement hit the House of Commons during a major fol ign policy debate, with 63 la bor members led by Tom Driberg and Ian Mikardo, of Labor's Ma tional Executive body, proposing high level conferences between the east and west before taking any further decisions on Korea.
 Simultaneously came a speech by Anthony Eden demanding confer ences between London and Wash ington, plus a London Daily Mail editorial goading Attlee with the taunt that Churchill would have been halfway across the Atlantic were he Prime Minister.
 It was this atmosphere of ex- treme criticism from both Conser- vatives and Labor that Prime Min ister Attlee was shown the first Truman statement indicating that the dropping of the A-bomb was  up to MacArthur. At this, about 100 Conservative members of Parlia- ment left the chamber and signed a petition to Churchill stating that if the United States dropped the bomb Britain should pull out of Korea
 These are some of the factors behind Attlee's trip which he want ed to put before Truman.
 Note-Three hours after the first Truman statement on the A-bomb, came clarifying White House statement that under the law only the President can authorize use of the atomic bomb and that no such authorization had been given to MacArthur.

Coffee and Defense

It may seem a long way be- tween a coffee investigation staged by a Senator from Iowa and this country's preparedness for war; yet there's a connnection just the same.
 The Senate investigation, staged by silver-crested, likeable Guy Gill; cite of Iowa, delved into increased coffee prices and speculation. Inso- far as it dealt with coffee manip- ulation by the big chain grocery stores and the New York commod- market, the probe was justified. However, when it blamed Latin American coffee growers for price increases, it was like blaming Iowa corn farmers for the increased price of corn.
 Thus the injustice of Gillettes probe, which made headlines in latin America, was the biggest b.c-k the Communists ever had SO T of the Rio Grande It also trla ! millions of hitherto friendly

We Need Latin America

But Gillette was stubborn. He had the support of Cotton Elmer" Thomas of Oklahoma, chairman of the Senate Agriculture Committee and he stood pat. What Gillette didn't figure on, however, was that Washington Merry -Go-Round ex- posures of Thomass speculation in cotton, lard and eggs would defeat him at the polls.
 Now that Thomas has been de- feated, Senator Gillette is without a friendly committee chairman, and new chairman Ellender of Louisiana plans to abolish the coffee -probe committee.
 However, here is the unpleasant payoff. The effect of the furore Gillette stirred up in Latin Am erica is now coming back to slap us in the face, following the bad news from Korea and Indo-China.
 Desperately short of manganese, we have turned to Brazil, which has the biggest manganese de- posits in the the Americas. But Brazil also happens to be the big gest coffee grower and is still smarting from the unfair accuSa- tions of the Gillette committee. Though she is now helping us out on manganese, it is not with the same enthusiasm as in the last war.
 Meanwhile, manganese is getting so short that refrigerators, auto mobiles, other civilian products ale almost certain to be curtailed be- cause of dwindling steel.
 Other strategic materials are also involved-materials which Latin America has and which we are go- ing to need vitally in case of all- out war. All of which is why the American peiple-instead of throw ing brickbats, as did Senator Gill; ette-need to get back to working at the good neighbor policy.
