Post War Trends
In Education Told

It. N. Touchstone, director OF
instruction in the state depart
ment of education, discussed post
war trends in education at a
meeting of the Fortnightly club
Wednesday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. K. w. Burnham
with Mrs. J. V. Ainsworth as CO.
hostess.
Mr.. Tombstone said the war
had revealed a definite lack in
the formal educational program.
Too much emphasis was placed
on a course preparatory to col
lege. he said, with not enough at
tention TO students who would
not continue their education.
He gave an outline of the new
trend in education naming as
five factors: a blueprint or OBJ
jectives, a flexible curriculum,
adequate buildings, teacher stan
dards, and a constant evaluation
of the work.

Rolling Lab Not Flying Squad

The state solons this week passed a bill by Sen. Frank
Smith repeating the bill creating the Mississippi Bureau
of Investigation, passed by a special session of the legisla-
ture in l947 ostensibly to deal with the Southern Trail
ways Bus Lines strike violence at that time.
The bill was one of the most vicious and dangerous
ever put On : states statute books and violated every basic
pfecept of the Bill OF Rights. 1t created a secret police
force with q staff and activities completely cloaked in
anonymity and responsible only TO the governor. 1t grant.
cd to NIB officers the right of search and seizure without
warrant where an Individual was suspected of a crime of
violence and then exempted the same officers from any
legal responsibility for their acts. 1t was a "gestapo."
pure and simple.
We sincerely hope the House will follow the Senate
in wiping this law from the books. 1t failed to do so in
1913 and let the repeal bill, which then also had been
passed by the Senate, die without action.
Other bills creating special state police forces, or in
~vestigating bodies, as requested by Governor Wright in
his address at the opening of the assembly, do not merit
passage by the legislature at this or any other session.
One bill would create a 25-man NIB under command
OF the governor. Under it the request to the governor for
use Of the squad in local enforcement or investigation
would have to come from either the sheriff of a county.
district attorney, circuit judge, county prosecuting at
torney, grand jury, mayor, board Of supervisors, city of
ficials or by petition of 20 percent of the qualified electors.
The governors troopers would investigate, report their
findings to local officials along with recommendations
II local officials failed to take action in line with the recon-
mendations, the troopers could move in.
That's . pretty dangerous setup. to our way of think
ing. and lends itself to all manner of political skulduuuerv
and vindictiveness. Qualified electors already have the
power to force impeachment or recall of officials either
grating or not enforcing the laws. Or II a city. beat or
county 10 saddled with inefficient or crooked officials, they
can always rectifY their mistakes at the ballot box and
without the activities of a state police force.
IL the state is interested in law enforcement and wants
to take a constructive step to that end, then it should
establish a rolling" crime laboratory stated with experts
capable OF applying modern technologies in the tracing
and solving of crimes. Almost all counties and cities are
Woefuly lacking in this department for the simnIe raaeo,
that they can't afford it. A centralized bureau to aid the
counties and cities in crime detection could be the answer.
1t has been tried and proved in other states.
In any, event, the state highway patrol is the only
statewide police force we need. We definitely do not
need a flying squad of state troopers, under the command
OF any one or a dozen officials, with the power to set aside
and usurp the normal processes of law in any city or
county in the state.

Demonstration OF
Planting Shrubs
Given Garden Club

Members of Lake Garden Club
were given a practical demon
stration of planting and grating
of camellias by Bert Mann of the
Woodland Nurseries, who car
ried out the entire process with
a shrub of this species. Mr.. Mann
also showed how to fertilize
camellias, using cotton seed meal
IN the process.
This was carried out on the
lawn of the home of Mrs. c. H.
Gray, who was cohostess with
Mesdames j. S. Abbey, Travis
Avara, Charles Mckay, Clara
Martin, M. l.. Hatten and j. p.
Frazier. Later they took advan-
tage of the spring-like weather
and served coffee and pecan pie
outdoors.
The demonstration was preced-
ed by an indoor meeting with
Mrs. T. T. Justice presiding. One
of the matters coming before the
club was its part in entertaining

Council when IT meets at the Pas

Thus, we believe that special recognition for service

another point that makes us pause is this: Say the bonus
idea Is ok. Then, who should pass out the cash? Certain
ly not the state of Mississippi. Veterans fought in the
armed establishments Of the United States. not those of
any OF the 40 states. If the state now decides to give a
bonus, what's wrong with the counties dealing out some

from the city of Moss Point? And a gift from the North

The citY's authority to enter in.
10 a contract of this nature was
questioned. However. it was
pointed out. that authority must
exist in view of the work having
been done in a number of Mis-

Objections were also based on
the grounds that when the work

have something that was only

that the history of assessments in
